(Yao Xue Rong's POV)
When dawn came Fu Si, Fu Yan and Fu Wen assisted me. Grandmother's treatment needs to start early in the morning till midnight.
"Mistress the medicinal bath is ready" Fu Wen said
"Assist grandmother over and put her in"
They slowly put grandmother in the tub of medicinal bath. Then I used a needle to keep her conscious. Eleventh Hour Bone Defragmentation Art is a forbidden technique that was once practiced in Yakuza Families way back olden days. I have learned this technique from my grandfather when I was young and successfully practices this technique when someone comes home injured from war.
"Grandmother you need to live well after this so stay with us, do not close your eyes and do not lose consciousness. I have faith in you." I whispered as I drop the Snake Anti-aging Vitality in the tub which ignited the warming water. The Phoenix fire was burning at an exact temperature that doesn't damage the skin.
Then I added the dragon's immortality blood and calcified scales into the mix. The herbs in liquid form reacted to the solution and gradually eliminated the poison in my grandmother's body. Black colored poisoned blood like ink flowed out of her pores, luckily there are no unpleasant odor within the room after the poison was extracted.
When my grandmother's skin changed from brown to pale that was the first cue that her cells were regenerating and that the self-destructive cells were no longer operating abnormalities in her body. I slowly poured the contents of black charcoal made from violet spider grass into the tub and waited for the water to turn crystal clear. If it does then that means my grandmother's bones have already strengthened.
"Grandmother are you fine? Tell Rong'er about what you feel."
"Don't worry child grandmother is fine" she whispered, tears automatically fell from my eyes
"Grandma, you can finally talk" I whispered
Later on the water turned clear and grandmother's appearance feel like she turned back time from when she was still forty-five years old, instead of showing her real age which is eighty-nine. Treatment really does change figures, but to cure her like this might be me having blessed with good hands.
"Fu Wen, Fu Yan transfer grandmother into the lab room and lay her flatly" the both of them were too shocked to move and get grandmother out of the tub because of her devastatingly youthful appearance. Might have as well ask me if I have used sorcery to make her look younger. Well half an age is really shocking, but in the world of cultivators I doubt they'd still make it hard to believe and I'm sure my grandmother's aging will decrease with the ratio of 10:1, which means ten years will pass but she will age for only one year.
"Yes mistress" they answered in unison, then helped her up and moved her to the laboratory room, yet grandmother was too weak to walk on her own.
When grandmother was transferred I let her drink a cup of nourishing soup, this will serve as her meal for the day. Then I gave her three types of drugs all in liquid form; Internal Healing Syrup, Detoxifying IPS Syrup and Reverse Apitoxifier Syrup. When she drank everything I let her rest for an hour and let the burning incense stick calm her nerves. .
An hour later she was lying down on the bed and I prepared the needles for acupuncture. First I need to fix her Yin and Yang meridians to channel qi into her body and stabilize her viscera within. With full concentration I controlled the qi in my body and transferred in into the needles letting them dance on the air before landing on my grandmother's vital points. I reconnected the nerve cells in her body and tried to keep them responding with the energy. Then I controlled the blood flow in her body and appropriately making way for her blood vessels to open up.
Then I recovered the sensitivity of her skin making her feel the pain. When I saw her flinch I then inserted a dose of anesthesia and stabilize her condition. My next goal was for her to be able to walk and move her body in all directions, she had been disabled from moving them for so many years after contracting the poison which implies that she was comparable to a paralyzed person. She grunted as the pain intensified but what amazed me was my grandmother's willpower, her mental strength was too strong that the medication turned even better. When I was done with acupuncture I then pulled the needles one by one.
"Fu Si, Fu Yan, help grandmother sit upright"
I reached for another potion and let her drink a semi-colorless drug. This came from a revitalizing flower beast that has aged for over a century. The effects of this drug is for grandmother to regain her sense of touch, sight, hearing, smell and taste, and for more benefits it will also activate a persons sixth and seventh sense. I found this from the books that was delivered in my library before I transferred here. So I immediately dispatched people to search for this type of flower beast.
"Grandmother"
"Rong'er" her hand reached for mine
"I am glad grandmother is back! Fu Wen, Fu Yan let us accompany grandmother back to her room and Fu Si, call grandfather over."
We settled back to grandmother's room.
"Young miss the master is here."
"En. Grandmother, grandfather is here to see you. I will leave now, please take care of your health."
"Thank you child" she whispered
Then the door opened and my grandfather came in.
"Yu'er? Is that really you?" but after her said that, he collapsed on the floor
"Li Shen! Li Quan! come over!" I shouted as two shadow guards entered, I held grandfather in my arms as I caught him before his head bump on the floor.
"Master!"
"Pull him up and put him in the laboratory room! Fu Yan accompany grandmother and tell them no one is allowed to enter! Grandmother I'll be right back I'll check on grandfather first"
"Yes mistress!"
I closed the door behind.
"Li Chen, Li Wei!" I shouted as another two shadow guards appear in front of me
"Reporting to mistress!"
"Bring Xiemen in grandmother's room and guard the door, no one is allowed to enter."
"Yes mistress!"
Then I rushed to the laboratory and checked grandfather.
