112: Wan Yue is about to wake up

Chen Tianming frowned, his thoughts turning, and soon, the palace with its own array flashed in his mind!

He had felt immense and continuous spiritual energy in the crack of that palace back then!

"This is a good place for cultivation."

Just as Chen Tianming was deep in thought, a knock on the door suddenly sounded...

"Master, Li Doctor wants to see you. He said the examination report for the woman you brought back is out!"

"Tell him to wait for me in the living room," Chen Tianming quickly recovered and said.

"Yes."

After tidying his clothes, Chen Tianming put away all the spirit stones, opened the door, and left the room.

Li Doctor, looking exhausted with two dark circles under his eyes, was already waiting in the living room, holding the report.

Chen Tianming walked over and asked, "How is it?"

Although Li Doctor looked tired, his eyes were frighteningly bright!

He said spiritedly, "Unprecedented, Chen Shao!"

Chen Tianming raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at Li Doctor, his expression shifting. Did he really find something?

"Get to the point."

Li Doctor didn't notice the change in Chen Tianming's expression and continued, "This woman you brought back... oh, Wan Yue, Miss Wan!"

"The characteristics she exhibits are very similar to the hibernation of some animals, like bears. Generally speaking, humans cannot achieve this state."

"However, this state miraculously appeared on Miss Wan!"

"If it were just that, it wouldn't be surprising enough. What truly baffles me is that Miss Wan doesn't need to eat; she can automatically absorb energy from nature with just her body to ensure her survival!"

"And this kind of energy, globally, we are the first to discover!"

"If this energy can be utilized, the world's energy shortage problem might be solved..."

Li Doctor truly lived up to his reputation as a genius Western doctor; he managed to research so much from mere clues.

Chen Tianming raised his eyebrows slightly; he naturally knew the energy Li Doctor was talking about—it was the spiritual energy from the Spiritual Qi Resurgence!

He didn't know if this energy could be utilized in the future, but as for publicizing it, that would be too high-profile and didn't fit Chen Tianming's personality.

Besides, the Spiritual Qi Resurgence was accelerating. Even if he didn't say anything, someone would discover it soon enough; it was just a matter of who got the credit.

Chen Tianming's expression remained unchanged as he continued to ask, "Anything else?"

"What other conditions does Wan Yue have?"

Li Doctor's voice abruptly stopped, and he looked at Chen Tianming with a bewildered expression. What was going on? Shouldn't he be excited about such a big discovery?

However, Li Doctor quickly realized that Chen Shao already knew about this so-called mysterious energy!

Cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead. Chen Tianming knew about this energy but hadn't publicized it, which meant he didn't want people to know.

And now he had discovered Chen Shao's secret...

As much surprise as Li Doctor had felt initially, he now felt an equal amount of fear. His clothes were instantly drenched with cold sweat.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and continued, "Also, I can't determine Miss Wan's age. No matter what method I use, I can't confirm her true age."

"Then, it seems Miss Wan's brain suffered some kind of damage, and she is very likely to experience amnesia."

"Finally, it seems Miss Wan is about to wake up because the speed at which she absorbs that energy has changed. It should be within the next day or two."

Chen Tianming wasn't surprised that her age couldn't be detected, as even the system couldn't display her age.

However, the fact that Wan Yue might have amnesia was beyond Chen Tianming's expectation!

He had been somewhat conflicted, wondering how he would face the personality fragment of Nine Heavens Goddess when Wan Yue woke up.

He never expected her to have amnesia!

This saved him a lot of trouble; at least... he probably wouldn't have to return the one-third of the spirit stones he had used.

As for why she was waking up, Chen Tianming thought about it for a moment and could guess some reasons.

It was probably because the spiritual energy concentration in her environment had changed. Currently, merely absorbing spiritual energy through her body couldn't sustain her consumption, which led to a situation similar to the end of hibernation and awakening.

While Chen Tianming was deep in thought, Li Doctor in front of him was already drenched in sweat.

Finally, after more than ten seconds, Chen Tianming looked up again, gazed at him, and said indifferently, "Don't tell anyone about this matter. Keep it to yourself."

Li Doctor instantly felt relieved and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Absolutely, absolutely!"

He was afraid that by stumbling upon Chen Tianming's secret, the other party would silence him!

Having been in the Chen family for so long, he understood better than anyone what kind of power this family possessed.

It could be said that for the Chen family to make someone disappear was incredibly easy, even if he was a world-renowned figure in Western medicine, he was no exception.

After Li Doctor left, Chen Tianming turned and walked towards the room where Wan Yue was arranged...

..................

Meanwhile, on the other side.

In a dark alley, Ye Chen suddenly felt a sharp pain and slowly opened his eyes, only to find a wild dog biting his arm!

It had clearly mistaken him for food!

Unfortunately, despite the wild dog's strenuous efforts, it couldn't leave a single wound on Ye Chen's body!

As a Ming Jin (Initial Stage) martial artist, his physical constitution was quite abnormal; ordinary knives and swords couldn't even break his defense.

The pain he felt now was probably because the wild dog had been biting for too long, which finally made him feel uncomfortable...

"Damn beast!" Ye Chen's face darkened. He reached out and grabbed the wild dog's neck, twisting it until it broke.

The dog then died.

Ye Chen slowly got up, leaning against the wall, only to find his internal organs burning with pain!

His whole body felt as if it were falling apart; every time he moved, the muscles on his face couldn't help but twitch twice!

It hurt, it hurt so much!

"Damn Chen Tianming!" Ye Chen's face was gloomy. He still remembered being knocked unconscious by Chen Tianming, who had suddenly turned on him.

He never expected Chen Tianming to be so shameless, going back on his word and suddenly attacking him!

Just then, he suddenly thought of something, his expression changed, and he quickly lowered his head, reaching for his chest!

"My necklace!"

Ye Chen's face instantly turned pale!

His necklace was gone!

This was his biggest secret, passed down to him by his parents, supposedly an heirloom. He had accidentally discovered that it contained cultivation techniques for immortality!
