The nurse was instructed to remove the two headless corpses from outside, and Su Xiaoxuan continued her diligent medical practice.
In the afternoon, Dong Qi sneaked downstairs.
He sidled up to Su Xiaoxuan and whispered, "Divine Doctor Su, can I really be cured in that regard?"
"Of course," Su Xiaoxuan's eyes lit up, and she said confidently, "I'm best at treating male diseases. A thousand crystal cores will ensure your satisfaction."
"You just said two hundred crystal cores earlier, why did the price suddenly increase?" Dong Qi exclaimed in surprise.
"Two hundred crystal cores will only last you an hour, while a thousand crystal cores will last you an entire hour. Which package do you want?"
Su Xiaoxuan's expression suggested he was free to choose.
"I only have two hundred crystal cores, and an hour is enough," Dong Qi said, his heart aching as he produced the two hundred crystal cores.
He thought about how he could barely last three minutes before, and if he could truly last an hour, he would be content.
"Your boss is such a generous person, I wouldn't have thought you'd be so stingy with yourself," Su Xiaoxuan murmured softly.
"How can I compare to my boss? I daresay no one in the world can compare to him," Dong Qi said righteously.
"Come on, let's get this over with quickly, I have other patients," Su Xiaoxuan urged.
Su Xiaoxuan then used her light attribute Yuan Qi to acupuncture Dong Qi over ten times. After finishing, she told him, "You'll need over ten needles for three days, take seven days of medicinal soup, and you must abstain from sex during this period."
Just then, Qin Shilei walked down from upstairs.
Seeing his city lord, Dong Qi awkwardly greeted him, "Boss, are you going out?"
Qin Shilei shook his head, "No, I'm looking for Divine Doctor Su."
Dong Qi suddenly seemed to understand something, and the awkwardness on his face instantly turned into a smile of unknown meaning.
Qin Shilei said exasperatedly, "I'm not looking for Divine Doctor Su to treat myself, I want her to take a look at my pet."
"Uh!" Dong Qi didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Qin Shilei ignored him and walked up to Su Xiaoxuan, asking, "Divine Doctor Su, my pet has fallen into a coma, just like Kong Qingshu. I wonder if you can take a look."
Su Xiaoxuan extended her right hand.
Qin Shilei, understanding, handed her five crystal cores.
Su Xiaoxuan took the crystal cores and said, "I'm not a veterinarian, I don't treat exotic beasts."
Seeing Qin Shilei about to retrieve the crystal cores, she quickly added, "Bring the pet out for me to examine."
Qin Shilei found a spot and released Xiao Qiang.
Su Xiaoxuan pretended to examine it, then spread her hands, "I can't do anything, but I can infuse your pet with a ray of light elemental energy every day. It will cost a hundred crystal cores. Do you want it?"
Qin Shilei could only try his luck. He handed her a hundred crystal cores.
When the two returned to the clinic, a young man walked in carrying a woman.
"Divine Doctor Su, please save my wife."
The young man seemed to understand Su Xiaoxuan's rules and proactively offered five crystal cores.
He then said, "My wife hasn't woken up since this morning. I've tried many methods to no avail, so I had to come to you."
Qin Shilei, who had already reached the stairs, turned back upon hearing this.
The patient was also unconscious, and her condition was somewhat similar to Kong Qingshu's. He wanted to see how Su Xiaoxuan would treat this patient.
Su Xiaoxuan placed three fingers on the woman's wrist.
As time passed, her brow furrowed, "It seems like soul loss, but not quite. Such a strange pulse."
Before Su Xiaoxuan could examine further, the woman suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, then her head weakly lolled to the side.
"Wife, wife..."
The young man turned and grabbed Su Xiaoxuan's arm, anxiously saying, "Divine Doctor Su, please save my wife quickly."
Su Xiaoxuan performed a brief examination and shook her head, "Your wife is dead."
"Impossible, please save her!" The young man cried, holding his wife.
At that moment, a phantom figure suddenly floated out of the woman and pounced, entering the young man's body.
The young man immediately closed his eyes and fainted.
"Ah!" Su Xiaoxuan was startled by this scene and stumbled back two steps, falling into Qin Shilei's arms.
Qin Shilei steadied Su Xiaoxuan with one hand and instantly drew his Blood Soul with the other, looking warily at the unconscious young man.
After a long while, seeing no movement from the young man, he nudged him with the Blood Soul.
Qin Shilei said, "Divine Doctor Su, why don't you examine him?"
Su Xiaoxuan's voice trembled slightly, "Was that a ghost just now?"
Qin Shilei was speechless, "It's the apocalypse now, and you're a Black Iron realm expert. You're a doctor, are you still afraid of ghosts?"
Su Xiaoxuan turned and hid behind Qin Shilei, asserting forcefully, "It's normal for girls to be afraid of ghosts."
Qin Shilei had no choice but to step forward and squat down to check the young man's breathing.
"He's still breathing. Check his pulse."
Su Xiaoxuan mustered her courage, took Qin Shilei's wrist with one hand, and placed her other hand on the young man's wrist.
"How strange, it's the exact same pulse as his wife's earlier."
After speaking, she formed a hand seal and shot a beam of white light at the young man.
Immediately, a phantom figure emerged from the top of the young man's head.
This phantom figure kept changing into various ferocious appearances, baring its teeth and lunging at Su Xiaoxuan.
Qin Shilei waved his hand, and the Blood Soul shot out like a red lightning bolt towards the phantom figure.
However, the Blood Soul in his hand passed through the phantom figure without any resistance.
The phantom figure continued to pounce towards Su Xiaoxuan.
Seeing the presumed ghost lunging at her, Su Xiaoxuan screamed and turned to flee.
Qin Shilei flashed forward, rapidly closing in on the phantom figure chasing Su Xiaoxuan.
He thrust the Blood Soul towards the phantom figure again.
This time, a sword aura more than a meter long shot out from the sword, instantly striking the phantom figure.
"Ah!"
The phantom figure let out a sharp scream, turned, and pounced towards the young man on the ground.
"So it's vulnerable to energy attacks." Qin Shilei's heart was instantly at ease.
Just as he was preparing to use sword aura again to destroy the phantom figure, his heart stirred, and he activated the pupil technique he had just learned.
Purifying Eyes!
A flash of purple light, and Qin Shilei's pupils instantly turned a brilliant purple.
Name: Soul Devouring Demon Strand Fragment
Description: Extradimensional creature, immune to physical attacks. Can possess living beings and devour their souls.
Qin Shilei stared at the information displayed before him, stunned.
This was actually an extradimensional creature.
Could there be extradimensional spatial rifts near Lingquan City, or did this strand fragment of the Soul Devouring Demon come from elsewhere?
The creature was called a Soul Devouring Demon, so did that imply a demon realm?
The creature that emerged from the rift near City of Hope was an insect, so could the other side be an insect realm?
Demon Realm, Insect Realm?
Could there be more than one extradimensional world connected to Blue Star by rifts?
Numerous thoughts flashed through Qin Shilei's mind in an instant.
The strand fragment of the Soul Devouring Demon took the opportunity to return into the young man's body.
