Chapter 476: 476
Chapter 476 - The Idol of Douluo
Despite treating countless people, Yali kept her name secret . Her patients simply called her the Angel of Hope . The mere mention of that name sent waves throughout Douluo .
The Federation had offered her a high-ranking office for her deeds, but she rejected it, asking for her identity to be kept under wraps . She wished to save people, pure and simple . She had no desire for fame . Soon after, Yali went into seclusion in Shrek Academy, only coming out whenever a disaster occured .
Innumerable were tales of men besotted with her . They waxed rhapsodic about her kind heart, her charming looks, the greatest in both categories on the continent . Her goodness was contagious, spreading to every person she encountered, changing them into better people . They couldn’t help but adore her . Love her . Those in powerful positions throughout the continent had been drawn to her, all vying for her affection .
She became the idol of Douluo .
Such an eligible bachelorette was bound to garner suitors . One day, a man declared to the world that he would take her as his bride . He was resolute in this, unyielding . He challenged his rivals in love to face him in a duel . When the time came, he single-handedly defeated sixteen other Titled Douluos, three of which were three-word battle armor masters and the rest two-word . After every victory, he told his opponent with heartfelt sincerity to be at ease . He would protect Yali with his life .
Ten years later, the man stood at the peak of the world, the greatest of his generation . He and Yali had wed and were proclaimed as a couple fated by the heavens . Wherever Yali went, he would follow .
The realization of his love had changed him . He turned his back on worldly affairs, his wife the only thing that mattered to him . The perfect gentleman, he did his best to support her in her endeavors .
This story was well known among the upper echelons of society . Mo Wu couldn’t help but tremble as he recalled it . He had just met a legendary figure!
He studied her once more . Time was kind to the Holy Spirit Douluo . She had the appearance of an attractive woman in her twenties, when in reality, she was well over eighty years old . In fact one hundred might not be pushing it .
Mo Wu remained silent watching Yali through the glass, heartbeat relaxing at the sight of the Holy Spirit Douluo caressing his daughter’s head . Light bloomed around Yali, soft and pure . A small angel appeared out of her back . It had three pairs of wings and curled up into a ball upon landing on Mo Lan’s body . A second later, it dissolved into wisps of golden light and entered through Mo Lan’s nose .
Yali waved her hands, commanding streams of golden light to enter Mo Lan . Some, rather than enter her, wrapped around her tightly, cradling her in a cocoon of light . It floated a few inches in the air, growing brighter, thickening, too blinding for anyone to peer within . .
Still, Mo Wu held complete faith in Yali . According to legend, the Holy Spirit Douluo could save someone’s life as long as they had a single breath left to breathe!
The golden light slowly receded until it was but a dim glow .
At that moment, Mo Lan’s husband returned . In a few quick strides he was right before Mo Wu . After a brief explanation from his father-in-law, his face brightened with joy .
In the moments that had passed since Yali started her work, those on the other side of the glass could vaguely make out Mo Lan’s state making remarkable progress . The swelling of her head rapidly receded . A dark green gas was expelled from her eyes, ears, nostrils, and mouth, immediately swallowed by the surrounding golden light . Not a trace of it remained .
Shudders ran through Mo Lan’s body, her brows knitting together and eyes closing tight . Ten minutes later, her head showed no signs of swelling . Expected results of the Holy Spirit Douluo, the most powerful healer in the world .
Another ten minutes later, the golden light faded away and the little angel slipped out of Mo Lan’s body, returning to Yali . She gently pressed her index finger on Mo Lan’s head . A beat later, black hair sprouted from the top of Mo Lan’s head . A hint of color to her cheeks . She no longer appeared to be sitting on death’s doorstep .
Shock painted the faces of the current medical staff . This was nothing short of a miracle! Without knowledge of Yali’s identity or the legend of the Holy Spirit Douluo, they were still able to comprehend something incredible had happened, how amazing she was .
Yali’s soul rings faded . She left the room, robes swaying behind her .
In a blink of an eye, Mo Wu was by her side, tears streaming down his cheeks . “Thank you . Thank you, Your Eminence . ”
Yali heaved a long sigh . “Don’t thank me just yet . She hasn’t fully recovered yet . ”
“Huh?” Yali’s words were a bucket of ice water over his head . If even the Holy Spirit Douluo could not guarantee her recovery, then all hope was lost .
“Her situation was too extreme,” Yali said, her lips pressed together in a frown . “The brain damage from the Phosphor Fire Soul Refinement is severe, and unfortunately for her, the most complex part of the human body is the brain . There are numerous regions of the brain, each that control various functions of the body . Not only that, her spirit was damaged . I did manage to treat the damage to her brain and piece back together her spirit, but as I said before, they’re complex things . I can’t be one hundred percent certain that I didn’t miss something, or that she’ll be able to make a full recovery .
“Don’t get me wrong . Her life is no longer in danger . But the important question now is whether she will wake up . If she does, then she’ll be fine . She might lose some of her memories, but that’ll be it . ” She pointed to Mo Lan’s slumbering form through the glass . “Even though she’s unconscious, I want you to talk to her . The sooner she wakes up, the better . You can also move her to a normal room now . ”
Mo Wu and Mo Lan’s husband let out a sigh of relief . Before this, the doctors had told them her condition was critical . Not even a seven-ringed soul master could heal her . They couldn’t hope for anything more from Yali . Just her life no longer in danger and her body recovering was good enough, especially since she still had a chance of a full recovery .
“When she wakes up, call me . I'll come back to help her sort her memories and heal any remaining cracks in her spirit . I want to minimize her memory loss . ” Yali handed a card to Mo Wu .
“Thank you . Thank you, Your Eminence . ” Mo Wu accepted the card and bowed . Although he was a city administrator, he knew that he didn’t have the means to pay back Yali’s kindness, and that this kindness came with no strings attached . The Holy Spirit Douluo’s desire to save others was generous, altruistic . Was pure .
Yali smiled . Her aura was peaceful and lightened the burdens everyone around her, their fatigue washing away .
Zhen Hua approached and bent in a curt bow . “Your Eminence, you’ve worked hard,” he said, careful to respect her seniority .
“It was nothing . I will now take my leave . ” She turned to Tang Wulin, affection in her eyes . “Wulin, do you want to go with me?”
Mo Wu and Mo Lan’s husband dropped their jaws . They were not without knowledge of Tang Wulin’s enrollment in Shrek Academy, but this . The Holy Spirit Doulou’s acknowledgement . This was on a whole new scale .
