Chapter 230
"Though I couldn\'t get the Firmament Godhood Halo, the power of the three Godhood Halos added together might be stronger."
Jiang Xiu smiled coldly.
"You too couldn\'t have expected that I could still become a God, right?"
He turned around then walked towards the bedroom, passing through the glass by transforming into white smoke, then forming into his body again slowly. Glass was nothing in front of him.
…
On the next day, Jiang Xiu heard the sound of the door opening downstairs. He went down and discovered it was Cheng Lingsu. She had a fatigued face. It appeared that she hadn\'t got much sleep at the hospital. She saw Jiang Xiu come down and talked to him, "You woke up at just the right time. The breakfast I bought is still warm. Gobble it down."
Jiang Xiu actually didn\'t refuse breakfast and took his seat calmly. He felt extremely famished at the moment. If Cheng Lingsu hadn\'t bought food, he might\'ve made a trip outside to satiate his hunger as he used up a lot of energy yesterday night.
Cheng Lingsu took the backpack off, "So tired. I\'ll go take a bath then a nap first." She ran upstairs after saying this. This little girl had never worked so hard.
"Is your sister going to keep guard tonight?" Jiang Xiu asked.
Cheng Lingsu stopped then said, "Yeah. We asked the nurse, but that person wasn\'t much willing. Dad also needs to undergo a second operation so we three can only switch out among ourselves."
Though Jiang Xiu was the Cheng family\'s son-in-law, Cheng Lingsu had no intentions to ask for his help as it wasn\'t much realistic to do that.
Jiang Xiu finished his breakfast then went out. He didn\'t go to the university but rather to the hospital. It wasn\'t that he sympathized with Cheng Hanlin as he had always been biased about him. The reason for this was the events which happened in the previous life, but he couldn\'t bear to see Cheng Lingran get burdened by this.
He also wanted to test his abilities now that he had become a God.
He was vexed about how to use the three Godhood Halos before, but the riddle was solved now. It was only possible to use them after becoming a God. Moreover, each Godhood Halo had its own unique ability.
The Godhood Halo of the Heavenly Dao Religion\'s God was a green one. Jiang Xiu could also feel a potent life force from it. The Heavenly Dao Religion had also appeared back then during a time of calamity, and he guessed that the heavens must\'ve bestowed this Godhood Halo unto that God to relieve the people from their suffering.
No one was in the room when Jiang Xiu arrived there, and Cheng Hanlin was in a deep sleep. Sun Xiaohong should\'ve been here, but the doctor had called her to discuss regarding the second operation.
Cheng Hanlin\'s spine and limbs were injured so even if they were fixed back, he\'d be in a wheelchair after recovering. If it weren\'t treated, he\'d lie on the bed forever.
"You have good luck. Thank your daughter for paying off your debt in the previous life!"
Jiang Xiu reached out and placed his hand on top of Cheng Hanlin\'s body. His palm began to glow with a green light. This light was pretty gentle and appeared like nature\'s green, full of limitless life force.
The green light turned into flickering particles and went inside Cheng Hanlin\'s body slowly and supplied him with an active life force using the power of divinity.
"It\'s really like this!"
It was just as Jiang Xiu had speculated. This green Godhood Halo was a Life Force Godhood Halo. Only, the Godhood Halo wasn\'t so powerful that it could immediately heal Cheng Hanlin. It just rejuvenated the dead parts so it\'d still take some time for him to recover completely.
Just as all the particles went inside, a voice came from the door. Sun Xiaohong came inside along with a group of doctors. She was astonished as well as pleasantly surprised to see Jiang Xiu inside.
"Jiang Xiu!"
Jiang Xiu didn\'t respond to her.
"You\'re here at the right time. The doctor said another operation is needed. As a housewife, I couldn\'t make much sense of it. You\'re pretty skilled so can you help me make the decision?"
"There\'s no need for it. He should recover in 6-10 months."
On the side, an old doctor made a displeased face. "Young man, what silly things are you saying. The patient is injured so badly. Keeping aside about when he\'ll recover, if he doesn\'t undergo the operation, he won\'t even be able to sit up."
Jiang Xiu wasn\'t in the mood to argue with this old doctor, so he walked towards the exit of the room.
"Jiang Xiu!"
Sun Xiaohong called out to him, but he didn\'t stop.
"Ms. Sun, it\'s better to heed the specialist\'s opinion regarding the treatment."
In Jiangnan, the rumors were that Mr. Jiang\'s skills were quite godly. Though Sun Xiaohong hadn\'t seen it personally, she had heard a lot. Moreover, since the relationship between the families had eased up a bit, she didn\'t wish to go against Jiang Xiu\'s decision lest the families\' relationship reached another deadlock. "Can we wait a bit longer? We can\'t rush this matter."
The old doctor could only nod helplessly. They had to respect the intentions of the patient\'s family members.
"Hanlin, you\'re awake!"
Cheng Hanlin responded to her with an \'Mhm.\' After the excitement of reconciling with the Jiang family had passed, the pain he felt while being paralyzed on the bed began to torment him. He sat up then said, "Just now, I felt like I heard Jiang Xiu\'s voice."
"Mhm. He was here a moment ago. After all, we\'ve married our daughter to him. Even if he has a grievance, it\'s proper for him to come…" Sun Xiaohong stopped in the middle, becoming dazed.
The doctors were all dumbstruck as well. The old doctor\'s jaw had almost dropped off. "H-How… is this possible?!"
"How are you able to sit up?"
The previous doctor who spoke out cried out in surprise as well, "Impossible! Your 12th and 17th vertebrae are broken. It\'s impossible for you to sit up."
But the facts were right before them. Cheng Hanlin was also shocked. He sat on instinct and had no intentions to do it. He felt quite weird today. His body felt better and rejuvenated as if all his pain and weakness had been swept away.
"That youth just now…"
"His words were right!"
All the doctors revealed expressions of disbelief.
"A miracle! It\'s a miracle!"
The old doctor shouted excitedly, "Q-Quickly inspect him. I want to see what\'s up with his spinal column."
"Fast!"
He was too excited because the problem of paralysis due to injury to the spinal column was an unsolvable problem in medical science.
"Quickly notify Director Wu!"
For a moment, the ICU turned chaotic, or to say lively.
After Jiang Xiu left the hospital, he called for a cab to go to the campus. Just as he reached there, Wang Xintong called him. "That matter in Europe didn\'t work out."
Jiang Xiu had already prepared himself for such a result, but he was still a little disappointed when he heard it.
"Was the other party unwilling to sell it?" Jiang Xiu asked.
"It\'s not that. Our men went to the auction house to obtain the contact details of the seller, but they were fake, and so is the seller\'s identity."
"Looks like this person\'s too cautious." Jiang Xiu commented.
Wang Xintong felt quite helpless as well. "Mhm. What\'s the plan now? Should we stop or send more men to Europe to look for the seller?"
"Since the other party wants to hide, they won\'t get found by you so easily."
"Book a flight ticket for me. I\'ll personally make a trip over there."
If the other party weren\'t an ordinary person, no matter how many of the Wang family\'s children are sent, it would be completely useless. The Longevity Stone was pretty crucial to Jiang Xiu. He couldn\'t just rely on his divinity source to nourish the saber pill as even a hundred years won\'t be enough for it to take form completely. He was unwilling to wait so long, so he needed to gather otherworldly materials.
"Shall I come along with you to Europe then?"
"No need for that. Handle Jiangnan\'s business for me properly."
"My father\'s here to handle the matters in Jiangnan. Also, with the No.1 Demigod of China suppressing Jiangnan, no one dares to create trouble here, so everything\'s getting a green light. It\'s the same whether I stay here or not."
Jiang Luoxia had shocked the martial arts world of China with the battle on the Mid-autumn festival night. He also obtained permission from the Diaoyutai to take in Jiangnan\'s resources. No in the right mind would dare to create trouble with him under these circumstances.
Although Diaoyutai wasn\'t ready to forgive him for the chaos caused, Jiangnan\'s peace was most essential for them.
"No need for that!"
"Okay. Take care of yourself then. I\'ll arrange the trip as soon as possible. You really don\'t need me to accompany you? I\'m quite familiar with the places over there. I can act as your guide."
"I\'m not going there to have fun."
