After taking the pills Leng Ran brought, Xue Fei's complexion began to slowly recover. It was clear that her health was gradually improving.
However, she refused to wake up.
Although the blood curse still exists, Xuefei should wake up once she recovers her body.
"Xue'er, why don't you want to wake up?" Duan Changyun held Xuefei's hand, but could not feel any life in it.
“She… has absolutely no will to live.” He looked coldly at Xue Fei, ignoring Duan Changyun’s hand holding Xue Fei’s.
Huo Xiji and Gui Mei entered the room. Seeing this scene, Huo Xiji felt as if he were the superfluous one.
Duan Changyun noticed Huo Xiji and immediately let go of Xue Fei's hand.
“Perhaps I know why Fei’er doesn’t want to wake up.” After thinking about it for so many days, Huo Xiji, based on his understanding of Xue Fei, slowly realized why she didn’t want to wake up.
"What do you mean?" Ghost asked, puzzled.
“Fei’er is very kind, Uncle. I told you that a long time ago.” He slowly walked to the bedside. “Fei’er never wants to hurt anyone, not even a small animal. She would rather bear all the pain herself, just like when she was wrongly married, she still chose to silently endure it.”
Huo Xiji's words reminded Duan Changyun and Leng Ran that he had said something similar on their wedding day. They could indeed see that Xuefei was blaming them.
"What does this have to do with Fei'er's unwillingness to wake up?" Leng Ran still didn't understand.
“She doesn’t want to wake up because of our feelings for her. She doesn’t want to hurt any of us. When I heard you talking about it before, I understood that Fei’er might have developed feelings for each of you. It’s just that her upbringing forces her to choose to ignore all of that.”
Huo Xiji heard it clearly and understood it thoroughly.
“Uncle, your care for Fei’er, and everything you did when she lost her memory, might be the reason why Fei’er fell for you. Ghost, you withdrew your palm for Fei’er's sake, perhaps that’s why Fei’er fell for you. Leng Ran, actually, Fei’er may have already sensed that you are not me, but in the end, she still chose to believe, so she must have fallen for you because of that.” Huo Xiji revealed the truth one by one.
His words brought a touch of joy to all three men.
But after the initial joy, the four fell into a deathly silence.
Even if they were moved, so what? Xue Fei's life or death was uncertain at this moment. Even if she woke up, even if the blood curse was broken, she could still only marry one person! All four of them shared the same thought at this moment.
"Ghost Lord! Found it! Found it!" Suddenly, the ghost demon was heard entering the room with excited shouts.
"Chi, what did you find? Did you find a way to break the blood curse?" The ghost was the first to react and immediately thought of this.
“Yes! Look!” Gui Chi handed a book to Gui Mei.
"This is a book of witchcraft! Why is my mother's book of witchcraft in your underground palace?" Leng Ran snatched it away, only to find that it was the very book of witchcraft she had been searching for for so long.
Ghost looked at the book, but didn't quite understand it either.
"Chi, where did you find this?"
"Lord Ghost, this was found in your study. No one is allowed to enter your study, but please forgive us. Liang and I have searched everywhere except your study, so we dared to enter your study today! However, we found this book in the corner."
Gui Chi's words reminded Gui Mei of something.
“I remember now, this was given to me by Leng Qing. At the time, she did give me this book to gain my trust, saying it was a family heirloom. I didn't pay any attention to it at the time, nor did I trust her because of the book. I just casually tossed it aside!”
It turned out that Leng Qing had used the sorcerer's book as collateral to assure the ghost that his information was accurate. However, in the ghost's eyes, the book was completely meaningless. He only accepted it because Leng Qing seemed to value it.
Besides, he had already sent people to investigate everything. So he knew how important Xuefei was to Duan Changyun, and there was no need for Leng Qing to tell him. He only needed to know the situation of the people around Duan Changyun at that time.
Leng Ran ignored what they were saying and just looked at the witch book, but the more he looked, the uglier his expression became.
“Young Master Leng, both Liang and I saw in the book that it can break the blood curse, so why is your expression so strange right now?” Gui Chi looked at Leng Ran with confusion.
"But what exactly happened?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
Everyone looked on coldly.
“Ghost, you’re not mistaken, there is indeed a way to break a blood curse.” Leng Ran turned to the page that Ghost had seen before. “However, you missed something. To break a blood curse, the caster needs to use their own blood. You thought that a blood curse was cast using the blood of the one who cast it.”
The ghost then realized that he had been too hasty in finding the method and hadn't looked at it carefully.
"Is there... no way out...?" Huo Xiji swayed and almost fell over.
Duan Changyun and Gui Mei's faces were ashen, and Gui Chi also looked disappointed.
"No, there is a way." Leng Ran carefully examined the entire process of casting the spell and how to undo it.
"Really? Then Xue'er can be saved!" Duan Changyun breathed a sigh of relief, but then noticed Leng Ran's expression had become even more grim. "What's wrong?"
"Leng Ran, stop keeping me in suspense! What's wrong?" Ghostly was getting anxious too.
He glanced coldly at the three anxious faces, hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke.
"Although this book of witchcraft does not describe another way to break the curse, it reminds me of a method my mother once told me when I was a child." He coldly surveyed the crowd. "This method is blood transfusion."
"Just a blood transfusion? If it's a blood transfusion, then it means returning the blood to Fei'er? Then any of us can do it!" Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"No! It's not that simple. This blood transfusion can only be performed by the one who cast the spell or someone with the same bloodline as the one who cast the spell. In other words, only I can do it. And even so, because it's not the one who cast the spell who breaks it, it still won't work. Someone must channel all their power into Xue Fei's true qi the moment the blood enters her body; a moment earlier won't work, and a moment later won't work either!"
His cold words cast a somber mood over the next few days.
"Then... how much blood transfusion is needed?" Duan Changyun asked Leng Ran.
"Actually... it doesn't require much blood transfusion. It's just that the curse is hidden in Fei'er's body, and I'm just using the blood transfusion to draw it out. That's why the book says that it must be cast by the one who casts the curse. My mother told me about this method, but she herself has never tried it. I just vaguely remembered her mentioning it by chance back then."
"You've unleashed the Blood Curse. Now that the Blood Curse is inside you, what will happen to you?" Huo Xiji asked Leng Ran.
"I don't know." Leng Ran said helplessly, "I only have this much of an impression of my mother. I don't remember what would have happened if the one who brought it out was just related by blood."
“Then you…” Ghostly looked at Leng Ran.
"If I could break Fei'er's blood curse, I would gladly die." Leng Ran didn't care about his own life or death. "However, what I'm more worried about is that even if it's broken, Fei'er might not wake up. She doesn't want to wake up right now, and her face is already disfigured. If she really wakes up, how will she face us?"
Everyone fell silent once again.
