Chapter 155: Curse
As the water traveled down her throat, Chen Tian could feel a warm energy spreading throughout Mei Hua's body.
Using his spiritual Qi, Chen Tian helped Mei Hua's body absorb the beneficial properties of the water.
The warm energy intensified, coursing through her veins and revitalizing every cell in her body.
The pill that Chen Tian used was only a grade 1 pill of Medium quality, something that wasn't too powerful for a Meridian Opening Realm like him anymore, but for a mortal, it was like a divine elixir.
Now, combined with Chen Tian's profound spiritual Qi, it was enough to stimulate Mei Hua's inner vitality and restore her health.
As the water continued to nourish her, Mei Hua's physical condition started to show signs of improvement as well.
Her pale and lifeless complexion gradually regained its rosy hue, and the wrinkles on her face seemed to fade away.
The once frail and weak Mei Hua now radiated a newfound strength and vigor, as if she had been reborn.
The warmth and revitalizing energy from the pill and Chen Tian's Qi had not only healed her physical conditions but had also improved her body condition.
Seeing that Mei Hua was out of danger, Chen Tian sighed in relief, feeling a weight lift off his shoulders.
He knew that his efforts had not been in vain and that Mei Hua's health had significantly improved.
Just as Chen Tian was checking on Mei Hua's pulse and breathing, his spiritual sense caught the presence of people approaching the room.
When he was curing Mei Hua, his senses were heightened, allowing him to be aware of any disturbances around him.
Since Mei Hua had recovered, Chen Tian didn't need to stay any longer. He retracted his spiritual sense and looked at the window inside the room.
Getting out of the room through the front door was not an option; if he attempted to exit that way, the approaching individuals would spot him.
Chen Tian quickly assessed his options and decided that his best chance of escaping undetected would be through the window.
He quietly opened it, making sure not to make any noise that would draw attention.
With one last look at Mei Hua, he carefully climbed out, disappearing into the night just as the approaching figures entered the room.
Little did he know, Mei Hua had regained conscious and subtly opened her eyes and observed Chen Tian's bold getaway.
"Chen Tian..."
She then whispered in a barely audible voice, her words lost to the wind.
Then fell unconscious again.
"Like I told you, the patient needed immediate attention."
Chen Tian could hear the muffled voices of the figures outside as they debated his disappearance.
"Did you check the patient's vitals?" the doctor demanded, his voice filled with frustration.
"Yes, Doctor," replied the nurse nervously.
The woman inside needed immediate surgery as the injuries were severe.
Entering the room were two people: an old man wearing a white coat and a young nurse with a concerned expression on her face.
From there, it was clearly the doctor responsible for Mei Hua's condition.
He was here to check for the last time on Mei Hua State.
"Prepare the surgery room; I will perform the operation myself," the old man said firmly. The young nurse nodded and wanted to rush to prepare the surgery room.
"What!!"
The nurse stopped after hearing the doctor's shout.
She looked at him with a curious look.
"Doctor, is something wrong? She asked, her voice filled with confusion.
The old man looked at her with disbelief in his eyes.
He pointed at the machines that were displaying Mei Hua State's vital signs. "Look at this; her heart rate is stabilizing, and her blood pressure is improving. It's a miracle!"
"Eh?"
The nurse couldn't believe her eyes. Mei Hua State had been on the brink of death just moments ago, and now her condition was rapidly improving.
The doctor's original decision to perform the surgery himself suddenly seemed unnecessary.
"How could this happen? The patient's condition has greatly improved," he said, his voice trembling with surprise.
"Go prepare for a CT scan immediately," the doctor instructed the nurse.
As the nurse rushed off, the doctor couldn't help but wonder if there was a medical explanation for this sudden turnaround.
Perhaps there was an undetected blockage that resolved itself.
Whatever the reason, Mei Hua State's miraculous recovery was nothing short of astonishing.
The doctor couldn't wait to share this extraordinary case with his colleagues.
Chen Tian, who was outside, sighed in relief.
"Now she's safe", he thought to himself.
"Let's get out of here; there is no longer a need to worry," Chen Tian said to himself as he wanted to leave the hospital.
Since he was in the Meridian Opening Realm, such heights weren't a concern for him.
Mei Hua's room was on the fifth floor of the building, and he had scaled the condenser unit with ease, his Qi-infused feet providing a firm grip on the narrow ledge.
He looked up and saw the moon shining brightly in the night sky. Its gentle glow gave him a sense of peace and reassurance.
"The girls should arrive soon, but I still have work to do today," he thought before leaving.
He climbed toward the sixth floor with determination, his muscles flexing as he moved effortlessly.
The wind caressed his face as he reached the next ledge.
He was in front of another room at the top of the building, the door slightly ajar.
Using his spirit sense to scan inside the room, he found that there was only one person inside the room, and he was sleeping.
So Chen Tian decided to exist silently in this room, not wanting to disturb the sleeping individual.
Opening the door slowly, he stepped inside and closed it behind him, making sure not to make a sound.
The room was dimly lit, with a faint glow coming from a small lamp on a bedside table.
Chen Tian tiptoed across the room, careful not to disturb the peaceful slumber of the person occupying the bed.
On the bed was an old man who looked to be in his 60s, with wrinkles etched deeply into his face.
Chen Tian could see the rise and fall of his chest as he slept soundly, giving off an air of tranquility.
The room was filled with a faint scent of lavender, creating a soothing atmosphere.
Chen Tian silently observed the old man.
From the looks around the room, Chen Tian could tell that the old man wasn't normal and came from a wealthy family.
The room was decorated with expensive furniture and artwork, giving it an aura of elegance and sophistication.
Chen Tian wondered what kind of life the old man had lived to have such luxury surrounding him.
As he continued to observe, he noticed a photograph on the bedside table.
It was a picture of a young girl; she looked to be around 10 years old. Chen Tian wondered if she was a family member or someone important to the old man.
The girl had a radiant smile on her face, her eyes sparkling with joy. Chen Tian couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth and affection emanating from the photograph.
Chen Tian couldn't help but wonder if she was the granddaughter of that old man.
The photograph seemed to hold deep sentimental value.
Anyway, Chen Tian decided to leave the room and exit the hospital.
Just as he was about to leave, he halted in his tracks, and his expression turned from shock to intrigue.
He noticed something that shouldn't be there—a recognizable presence that Chen Tian was all too familiar with.
"Impossible, something like that shouldn't be here!" Chen Tian's heart raced as he recognized the familiar presence.
Chaos Insight.
Using Chaos Insight, Chen Tian's eyes turned into a piercing gaze, scanning the room for any signs of the familiar presence.
His mind raced with questions, wondering how such a thing could be on this earth.
"...Weird I'm sure I felt that presence here." Chen Tian muttered to himself, his brow furrowing in confusion.
He couldn't shake off the feeling of unease that had settled within him.
How could something so familiar be in a place where it didn't belong?
Determined to find answers, Chen Tian resolved to investigate further, determined to uncover the truth behind this unsettling presence.
He used Chaos Insight to guide him, hoping that his ability to sense would provide him with the answers he sought.
When his gaze landed on the old man, Chen Tian's expression widened as his face darkened.
"No way!"
"Something like that shouldn't be on this earth!" Chen Tian couldn't believe his eyes.
Dark energy was coming out of the old man, swirling around him like a malevolent storm. It seemed to emanate a sense of pure evil, sending shivers down Chen Tian's spine.
He knew that he had stumbled upon something far more sinister than he had anticipated.
The unsettling presence he had sensed earlier now made sense—it was the dark energy that was surrounding the old man.
"A curse!!"
