“That’s right,” Helian Beiming said. “My leg is indeed stronger than before.
When I stand up occasionally, it won’t be as painful as before.”
Helian Beiming could stand up, but the price of standing up was a bone-chilling pain. Under such circumstances, he could not walk at all, so he could only sit in a wheelchair. However, a few days ago, when Madam Tan was not in the room, Helian Beiming fell to the ground. He planned to sit back in the wheelchair before Madam Tan returned. Then, he realized that the moment he stood up, he had much more strength and it did not hurt that much.
It would be a lie to say that it did not hurt at all, but it was within an acceptable range.
He could not explain what was going on either. However, he did not tell Madam Tan. He was worried that if he did, he would bring her hope of recovery. But he had long lost confidence in his legs. He was afraid that he would disappoint Madam Tan again.
After that, he did not try again. After all, his heart was already dead. He only remembered such a thing today when Yu Wan asked.
“Why… why didn’t you tell me?” Madam Tan choked.
“I’m just afraid that you’ll be happy for nothing. My legs…” Helian Beiming smiled bitterly. “Won’t recover.”
He had gone crazy from cultivation. The demonic aura existed in his internal energy. In order to remove the demonic aura, he had no choice but to disperse his internal energy. After that, the meridians in his entire body were damaged, and the most serious thing was his lower limbs. This could not be repaired. Even a divine doctor like Old Cui could not.
Yu Wan stared at her uncle’s leg. Although she did not understand how all of this happened, she felt that her uncle’s legs seemed to have a new hope. “Uncle, let’s go to Xixia Garden and let Old Cui take a look too.”
To be cautious, Yu Wan decided to look for Old Cui. Yu Wan wanted to push the wheelchair. Madam Tan hurriedly said, “You’re pregnant. Let me do it.”
When they entered the manor, they had heard from the pageboy guarding the door that Ah Wan was pregnant. With this interruption just now, the two of them did not have the time to care about her health.
Helian Beiming’s loving gaze landed on Yu Wan. “It was a tough journey, right?” A woman’s pregnancy was hard to begin with, and she was always working hard. Just the thought of it made his heart ache.
Yu Wan smiled. “I’m fine.”
This was not polite talk. She was really, very good. She did not know if it was because the child doted on her, but she had never suffered much during this pregnancy. Other than eating and sleeping, there seemed to be no other changes. Things such as sore legs and waist, swollen body had never happened to her. Her body was as light as a swallow.
It was not strange when she thought about it. She was the strongest Saintess in history! The saintess bloodline in her body had been awakened. Could this fetus be the same as before? In her stomach, Yan Xiaosi spat out a bubble and continued to hug the umbilical cord to sleep.
Old Cui carefully treated Helian Beiming. “It’s better, that’s right. What medicine did you take?”
Helian Beiming shook his head. “No, I didn’t take any medicine.”
“Oh.” Old Cui raised his eyebrows. “That’s really strange. At this rate, you might be able to walk around normally in less than a year or two.”
“Doctor Cui, are… are you serious?” Madam Tan was the most excited. She cared about her husband’s legs more than anyone else. It was not that she despised him and wanted him to stand up like a normal person, but her heart ached for her husband. The Divine General who rode the battlefield would be in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. Such a blow was definitely not something he should suffer.
He had lived an honest life. Why did the heavens give him such a painful ending?
Helian Beiming could not suppress the excitement on his face. In the past, he would not believe it if a doctor told him that his legs could recover, but recently, his legs had indeed “reacted”. He… He tried his best not to take it seriously because he was afraid of being disappointed again. However, if Ah Wan and Doctor Cui said so, then he… then he…
Yu Wan took in Helian Beiming’s suppressed excitement and smiled gently. “Uncle, you can be excited. You’re really getting better! Although there’s not a hundred percent chance of recovery, there’s definitely a chance.”
“But… Why is this happening? I… I didn’t take my medicine either… I didn’t do anything on purpose…” Helian Beiming tried his best to recall the movements in the past half a year. Other than going to court more often than in the past few years and going to the Matriarch’s courtyard more often, he also accompanied Madam Tan back to her maiden home a few times. He really didn’t do anything else..
