Chapter 928: Chapter 628: Injury_2
âIâll give you a few bottles of pills. Take one every morning and evening.â
âOkay.â Mo Hua nodded with some difficulty, âThank you, Elder MurongâŠâ
Elder Murong smiled faintly.
After that, other cultivators started to visit Mo Hua in succession.
First came Yu Er.
Seeing Mo Hua injured, he stayed by Mo Huaâs side, his little brows furrowed, eyes moist, refusing to be sent away.
Elder Murong had no choice but to prepare a small bed for him, along with a little blanket, letting him sleep nearby.
Yu Er was quiet and not troublesome. When he woke up, the first thing he did was to check on Mo Hua.
Mo Hua woke to find Yu Erâs eyes shining brightly, filled with happiness.
But since Mo Hua needed to recover, Yu Er only stayed for a while before he had to return to the Discipleâs Residence to do his homework.
Murong Caiyun came once too, bringing some pills and nourishing supplements.
Seeing that Mo Hua was alright, she was relieved. She only admonished Mo Hua to be more careful when practicing spells so that he wouldnât injure himself again.
Mo Hua nodded honestly.
He had also learned something:
He heard Senior Sister Murong call Elder Murong âauntie,â clearly indicating a relationship between the two.
Shangguan Xu came to visit him too. Besides the recovery pills, he brought a lot of delicious food.
âThese are from Aunt Wan; she asked me to bring them to youâŠâ
âThis is within Taixu Gate, and itâs not convenient for her to come in. Still, she wants you to visit the Gu Family after you recover. Sheâll then request the Pill Master of the Shangguan Family to regulate your condition, making sure youâre left with no complicationsâŠâ
Mo Hua nodded and expressed his gratitude:
âThank you, Senior Brother Xu, and please convey my thanks to Aunt Wan as well.â
In addition, some fellow disciples from the same sect came to visit their âJunior Brother.â
Seeing that Mo Huaâs complexion was fairly good and there were no serious issues, they felt reassured. They gathered around Mo Hua, chattering away:
âMo Hua, did we hear right that you got injured practicing a spell?â
âIs that true?â
âWhat spell were you practicing, exactly?â
âIt wasnât the Fireball Technique, was itâŠâ
âHow could it be?â
âWhy couldnât it beâŠâ
âMo Hua can only use the Fireball TechniqueâŠâ
âMo Hua, once we leave Taixu Gate, weâll pretend we donât know youâŠâ
âDonât ever tell anyone youâre our âJunior BrotherââŠâ
âWhat kind of Junior Brother gets hurt by a Fireball TechniqueâŠâ
Mo Hua gave them a disdainful look, saying displeasedly:
âWhatâs wrong with the Fireball Technique? Just wait until Iâve perfected it. Iâll make you cry with just a Fireball Technique!â
âI donât believe it!â
âDonât just talk big without backing it upâŠâ
âJust a mere Fireball TechniqueâŠâ
âŠ
Mo Hua argued with them playfully, and the atmosphere grew livelier.
Elder Murong, however, said calmly, âThis is the Pill Room where you need to recuperate quietly. All of you should go to your classes.â
âYes⊠Elder.â
The disciples, who had been thinking of skipping class, now respectfully bowed and left the room, looking dejected.
Only Cheng Mo stayed behind, reluctantly gripping Mo Huaâs hand and urging him:
âMo Hua, heal quickly and come back to teach us about FormationâŠâ
Elder Master Xun is too strict, his lessons too advanced, and he assigns too many tasks. They were simply too much to handleâŠ
Junior Brother Mo was much better.
âŠ
Elder Master Xun also came to check on Mo Hua.
He was stern-faced and didnât say much, only admonishing Mo Hua to heal well. But as he left, he couldnât help himself and whispered reassuringly:
âThereâs no need to excel in combat spells if they donât suit youâŠâ
âYou donât have a strong foundation; thereâs no need to force yourself to learn such aggressive spells like othersâŠâ
âJust master Formation well enough to stand on your own in the Cultivation World, and no one will dare to bully you.â
âIf you face difficulties or someone causes you trouble, just speak up, and the Sect will support you.â
âThereâs no need to strain yourself trying to learn these spellsâŠâ
âAnd donât injure yourself againâŠâ
âŠ
Mo Hua felt touched and quickly nodded, âI understand, thank you, Elder Master!â
Elder Master Xun wasnât sure if Mo Hua had taken his words to heart, but he nodded anyway and left.
âŠ
As evening approached, the Elder of Daoist Law also quietly visited Mo Hua.
He was responsible for teaching Daoist Skills and, although he wasnât the direct cause of the discipleâs injury, as an Elder, he felt he should bear some responsibility.
Seeing Mo Hua sitting on the bed, his left hand wrapped in bandages, his face pale but his eyes lively and breathing steady, the Elder of Daoist Law finally eased his mind.
The Elder of Daoist Law exchanged a few pleasantries, hesitated for a moment, and then asked in a low voice:
âMo Hua, what spell were you using in the Dao RoomâŠâ
He not only taught spells but also studied them, hence his curiosity about the unknown spell.
He wanted to know what kind of spell Mo Hua had cast that could create such immense power, blowing up a perfectly fine spell puppetâŠ
Mo Hua was stunned, his eyes lighting up.
Since waking up, whenever he had the chance, he pondered over the âspell fusionâ matter.
But no matter how much he thought about it, he couldnât understand why the fusion of two Fireball Techniques, forcibly joined by Divine Sense, resulted in such formidable power.
If he hadnât reversed the direction of the spell with his Divine Sense at the last moment, allowing the Spiritual Power of the spell to lose controlâŠ
He feared not only would his hands have suffered, but his very life would have been at riskâŠ
Mo Hua didnât comprehend it.
The mere fusion of two Fireball Techniques shouldnât have been capable of such force.
Not to mention that even the slightest aftershock had caused him such serious injuriesâŠ
This defied common sense.
So when the Elder of Daoist Law asked him, he too had many questions he wanted to consult with the Elder of Daoist Law.
