Return Of The Demon 70 What Happened That Day

As he looked down at his body, he found that he was wrapped up like a mummy. He could smell many medicines all around his body.

But as he focused on his body, he realized that there was an absurdly huge amount of medicinal power flowing inside him. It was constantly trying to heal and fix his body, even as he lay down. A good chunk of his injuries had already subsided. Only the major injuries to his organs, bones, meridians, and cultivation were left. The minor injuries had healed.

Bai Yun groaned as he sat up. Or he tried to. It was all he could do to gently raise his chest. He sat with both his arms supporting him and pulled off the bandages covering his face. He took a look only to see that the insides of the bandages were red. Bai Yun then touched his face gently. He could still feel the scars on his body.

But the medicine inside him was both powerful and gentle. It was healing him even now. It must have cost quite a lot.

He looked around. He was back in his room. His father must have arrived, and then brought him home.

Suddenly the door to his room opened, and doctor Mu entered the room. He walked up to Bai Yun and took his pulse.

"It's good that you woke up so quickly." Doctor Mu said.

"How long was I out for.?" Bia Yun asked Doctor Mu.

"It's been three days since your father called me over to check on you." Doctor Mu explained. "Honestly, it is a minor miracle that you woke up after three days. When I saw you, I wasn't sure you could survive, let alone recover so well."

Bai Yun nodded when he heard Doctor Mu's a.n.a.lysis. It was true. This was the closest he had come to death in both his lives. And if he hadn't cast shatterstar by instinct, or stopped it midway when he realized what he did, he would be dead for sure. Thankfully, he only managed to cast a tiny part of shatterstar, and thus dodge the worst case result. And the result of his quick recovery must be due to the G.o.d sense controlling medicinal power pa.s.sively.

"How are you feeling today?" Doctor Mu enquired.

"Like I should be dead." Bai Yun replied with a chuckle.

"That's good." Doctor Mu replied with a smile. "The fact that you can still joke is a good sign. I was afraid that you would be too depressed about your injuries. But there is no need to be scared. I am confident that I can heal you up well."

Bai Yun was not worried at all. Even though it may look as if there was no part of his body that wasn't damaged, he was incredibly lucky. None of the meridians had died, and his cultivation bases hadn't collapsed entirely. He knew six different ways to recover by himself even without the help of the medicinal ingredients and pills that had been fed to him.

Doctor Mu let go of Bai Yun with a nod. The moment he did so, Bai Yun's G.o.d sense got to work. He started to arrange the medicinal power inside his body to operate according to an ancient formula he had found in his father's library in his past life. His body started to heal itself at an almost visible pace. Unfortunately, no one was there to see it, or they would have been scared by its efficiency.

Bai Yun expected that it would be a week before his body was healed up properly. But the shock to his cultivation was even greater. It would take another week or even ten days to heal that too. And the only reason he could recover so quickly was that his parents had spend a truly unnecessary amount of medicinal power in him, which he had long since sealed up by his G.o.d sense, or at least ninety percent of it would have gone to waste.

"It is good that you are fine. I am yet to figure out how you woke up. It would be too sad if you die before I could solve the ancient mystery." Doctor Mu laughed, as he started to leave.

Bai Yun smiled when he heard the doctor. It was only when the doctor had reached the door that he realized something.

"Wait doctor Mu." He called out. "What ancient mystery are you talking about?"

Doctor Mu turned to him. "You don't know?" He asked him. When he saw Bai Yun shake his head before wincing in pain, he chuckled. "I am talking about the mystery of the damaged soul."

"For as long as records have existed, every few thousand years or so, someone like you, who has a damaged soul is born in this world. These children are unable to think and can not be healed by any means. No one can also identify the reason for it either. They simply live like a toddler throughout their lifetime. As far as I know, this world is the only one in which this phenomenon has been seen. Though I have heard rumors that there are similar cases appearing in the Immortal plane, but I couldn't verify it."

When Bai Yun heard this, he was stunned. Someone who is born with a damaged soul, while incredibly rare, but was not unheard of. As a soul G.o.d, he knew all about this. But all the cases of it as far as he knows could be identified and healed by someone in the dao step.

The only exception to this would be him. Only a t.i.tled G.o.d of the soul system would be able to identify what had happened to him. But just how impossible would it be for someone to run into one. After all, even in the Grand Immemorial World, only three people had reached the t.i.tled G.o.d level in the soul system out of seventy two t.i.tled G.o.ds.

This meant that he must have appeared in this world every few thousand years. Considering that it took a thousand years on average to go through a reincarnation cycle, it means that he was born in this world every few reincarnations. It was an impossible event.

Unless someone or something made it happen.

When his thoughts reached up to here, Bai Yun shuddered. He was scared that his reincarnations were being manipulated. He did not like the feeling.

But then he took a deep breath. There was nothing he could do about it anyway. He would just have to wait and see who was causing this.

Just then Bai Yun felt a terrifying force envelop him. Before he could realize what happened he found himself in his mother's embrace. He flinched from the pain and took a sharp intake of breath.

"Oh G.o.d. Are you okay?" Xiao Mei-er asked after letting him go.

"Yes." He replied. He could see that she was crying. Even though she had wiped the tears, he could still the traces of the tears on her face. Bai Yun realized just how scared she must have been.

Bai Yun looked over his mother's shoulder to see his father standing behind her. He sighed and shook his head when he saw Bai Yun's look.

"You are not leaving the house ever again!" Xiao Mei-er declared. Both Bai Yun and his father were surprised by her declaration.

The two of then spend the next few hours trying to calm her down. But no matter what they said, Xiao Mei-er just kept on shaking her head. The condition of Bai Yun when Bai Mu had brought him back had scared her too much. She refused to budge from her stance.

In the end, the two of them barely managed to calm her down. Bai Mu then led her back to their room to give Bai Yun some privacy. She fell asleep the moment she laid down. The fact that a peak soul step cultivator collapsed after just three days was enough to tell you just how much stress she was under.

Once Bai Mu made sure that Xiao Mei-er was asleep, he came back to Bai Yun's room. He knew that Bai Yun would want to know what happened that day.

And true to his thought, Bai Yun was waiting for him. Once he saw Bai Yun's inquisitive eyes, Bai Mu relented and explained what happened that day.

That day there were four people who tried to get to the mysterious rock. Three of the people were hidden in the general seats and the fourth was hidden in the Song clan's room.

By the time Bai Mu had arrived at the scene, the four of them had already attacked. Two of the four were at the colored soul state, one was at the early soul tribulation state and the other was at the peak of the soul tribulation state. With four soul step cultivators attacking, the defensive measures that the Hunters Union had set up was barely enough.

It was all they could do to barely defend while protecting the VIP seats. The attackers took this opportunity that the defenders gave to steal the rock. Many people in the general seats died in the ensuing battle.

Bai Mu arrived just as the thieves were escaping with the rock. When he arrived, Zhang Zi was escaping while carrying Bai Yun. After making sure that the two of them would live, he immediately joined the Hunters Union in attacking the thieves.

It was then that a dao step cultivator stepped forward to block him. Thankfully the reinforcements from various major forces and hunters union arrived soon enough, including two dao seed realm cultivators. This forced the thieves to escape. The dao step cultivator and the peak soul tribulation realm cultivator had escaped, while the other three were caught. But the three of them committed suicide before they could be interrogated. And they could not gain any information from what was on their bodies, though the investigation into them was still ongoing.

And worst of all the mysterious rock was lost. Without the rock, and with the hunters union having done little research on it, no one knew who the people who stole the rock were, or why they did so.

And as for the envoy from the Song clan, it seemed as if the reason they were late was that they were intercepted along the way and put under a powerful hallucination. It seems the initial plan of the thieves were to buy the item, but it was foiled by Song Hui. Since Zhang Zi's room was closed off, they did not know who bought the rock and decided to attack right then and there.

And Zhang Zi properly took Bai Yun out without anyone finding out the truth. Bai Mu secretly send him back home, and then went and got doctor Mu. But it seems that Zhang Zi had found out about his true ident.i.ty by then. Bai Mu later explained him being there as for the inner armor. Thankfully Zhang Zi was smart enough to think up an excuse for him.

Once Bai Mu explained what happened that day to Bai Yun, he left him alone to heal. Bai Yun spend a few minutes trying to recollect what the rock was, and where he had seen it before. After failing, he decided to put it to the back of his mind. considering the cultivation states for all the people involved in it, he would not be able to help at all.

He then closed his eyes and focused on his healing.
