I Have No Qualifications, The System Asked Me To Marry A Wife To Practice

Chapter Ninety-Three Different Paths Between Humans And Demons

"What's going on here!"

Chu Shen looked at Xiniang, who was trembling all over and looking miserable, and quickly took out a Spirit Qi Pill to feed her.

The Spirit Qi Pill could be considered a kind of panacea, with a certain relieving effect for any situation. Xiniang's condition should be no exception.

Unexpectedly, not only did it not work, but it actually caused the girl's symptoms to worsen rapidly. Her body, which was originally emitting a cold aura, now had ice crystals forming around it.

"This is... demonic possession?"

That's impossible, right? Xiniang hasn't been cultivating.

"No, although the symptoms are similar, it shouldn't be demonic possession. It may be related to her own special nature."

At this moment, he also began to understand. Xiniang clearly had special spiritual roots, so why didn't her father, who was a cultivator, let her cultivate?

Just eating a Spirit Qi Pill worsened her symptoms. If she were to go for Qi Refining, she would probably freeze into an ice lump.

Is it because of her half-demon bloodline?

Chu Shen felt a bit troubled.

According to Xiniang's usual prescription, it was too late to go buy medicine. Goose Forehead Mountain, where they could buy Lingcao, was quite far away, and they would still need to boil the medicine after buying it.

There were no great doctors or miracle workers in the current team who could save her with acupuncture or limited medicinal materials.

They could only take her to the Langxun Heavenly Palace and try their luck. Chongxue Peak was too high, and there was no time to go up and seek help. There were always some decent doctors in the Chongxue Sect.

Thinking about it, Chu Shen said to the scattered cultivator of the Chu family who was guarding, and then picked up the girl and activated the Langhuan Law Scroll.

"It's so cold, so cold!"

Even though he was already a ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator, he still couldn't bear the cold air emanating from Xiniang. When he arrived at the Chu family in Chongxueji, he hurriedly placed the girl on a chair.

The concubines who were having afternoon tea nearby were initially happy to see their husband suddenly appear, but when they saw Xiniang being put down, they were all surprised.

"Husband, who is this...?" Zhao Chulu held her son and looked at Xiniang, who was emitting frost in many places, with some suspicion.

Chu Shen didn't have time to say much: "Don't touch her, it's dangerous. I'll find someone to save her."

Saying that, he leaped out of the Chu family's house without even going through the Tianmen Gate.

The women looked at each other, and Hu Chuanshan's maid, Qingping, who was not so superstitious, curiously went up and lightly touched Xiniang's face. She jumped up immediately.

"It's so cold, so cold!"

"What's going on?" the other women quickly asked.

Qingping, with a doubtful expression, extended the finger that had touched Xiniang, and there was actually a layer of frost attached to it. "She's so cold. I just touched her lightly, and my finger almost lost sensation from the cold."

This made Zhao Chulu a little eager to try: "Is it really that exaggerated?"

Fortunately, Hu Chuanshan pulled her back: "Don't mess around, take a closer look at where she has been."

In just a short while, frost had formed around the place where Xiniang was sitting, and there were still some ice crystals condensing in the air.

Zhao Chulu dare not move now, as she is still holding her son!

"Everyone, get out! The cold air here has become heavier, we can't stay!" Hu Chuanshan continued, driving everyone out.

Most of the women here have recently given birth and are in postpartum recovery. Some of them are still holding their children. They cannot catch a cold, so they all listened to the advice and left, standing outside and discussing in whispers about where Chu Shen brought back such a strange water beauty.

Just as the gossip was heating up, Chu Shen came with the physicians from the Medical Academy.

These are not ordinary physicians, but scholars from the original Medical Academy. They can be considered to have received some true teachings of medical skills, but their progress in cultivation was not satisfactory. In the end, they failed to become formal disciples of the Langhun Heavenly Palace. Fortunately, they had a grandson with good aptitude who took over their position, so the whole family stayed in the Medical Academy.

At a glance, it can be seen that they have some knowledge.

"Where did you bring this half-yao from the Snow Clan?" the old man asked, protecting himself with spiritual power and examining Xinian's pulse with a surprised expression.

"Half-yao from the Snow Clan?" Chu Shen finally understood the source of Xinian's maternal bloodline.

"Don't you know?"

"How would I know?"

Chu Shen briefly explained what happened before.

The old man nodded and sighed, while giving Xinian acupuncture: "So that's how it is. This girl is really pitiful, but her mother is probably even more pitiful."

Seeing that the old man knew something, Chu Shen asked, "What do you mean?"

The old man looked around and whispered, "When I was in the Medical Academy, I read a relatively obscure book called 'Compendium of Yao Clan Women.' It records many things about the union of humans and yao, including some information about the Snow Clan.

The Snow Clan is transformed from ice and snow spirits. Although they are beautiful and noble, they are fundamentally different from ordinary creatures. Their bodies are ultimately made of spiritual energy, and their essence is a spiritual life form.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, even if they mate with humans, they will not produce offspring, except in one case.

Chu Shen's curiosity was piqued. "What case?"

"Soul Binding."

"Soul Binding... Isn't that an advanced forbidden technique in the demonic path?" Chu Shen was surprised.

The so-called Soul Binding is the act of restraining a soul and transferring it into a designated body. It is often used by advanced practitioners in the demonic path to torture others. For example, they would extract the soul of an opposing cultivator and then stuff it into the body of a pig or a sheep. The method can be described as cruel and ruthless.

Since the essence of the Snow Clan is a kind of spiritual life form, they naturally possess this technique.

But the technique of Soul Binding is a highly advanced skill in the demonic path, requiring a high level of proficiency from the user. Without any illness, Chu Shen was only at the Foundation Building stage, not a demonic cultivator. Even if he knew this technique, could he use it?

"I don't know about that," the old man shrugged. "And even if Soul Binding is used, the offspring of the Snow Clan and humans are cursed, a different kind of existence. After all, humans and the Snow Clan are fundamentally different. Forcing them together to raise offspring with both human and Snow Clan characteristics is a fate worse than death."

"Just like this little girl, how can her human body withstand the essence of the Snow Clan's ice and snow spirits?"

In the current situation, it's as if a Snow Clan with good aptitude has been forcibly stuffed into her body!

"I can't save her, I can only alleviate her symptoms," the old man said after stabilizing Xining's condition.

Chu Shen was stunned. So this was Xining's situation?

After stabilizing Xining's condition, the old man prescribed a medicine that would invigorate her yang energy and left, knowing that this was all he could do.
