QT: The Rescue Of The Miserable Bigshots-Chapter 196 - 7.26
Chapter 196: 7.26
"How is the patient?"
Outside the ward, the policeman, holding a notebook, looked at the doctor who had just come out of the operating room.
Such a poor child.
Even though he was abused like that by his stepmother, his father didn’t even dare to call 120 to protect him!
The child was forced to jump off the building in the middle of the night.
Fortunately, it was on the third floor, and some residents discovered it in time, called the police and ambulance. The boy was still alive.
While the couple is detained, the real concern is the child’s future and recovery.
Unfortunately, the police’s relief did not last long. The doctor slowly shook his head, his face etched with sorrow, and sighed deeply, "The situation is not optimistic. The main issue is that the patient himself has no desire to live. If he had the will to fight, there’s a chance he could pull through. But if not..."
At this point, the doctor couldn’t help but sigh again, his shoulders slumping slightly. "I’m afraid it’s over."
"Doctor Xu, Doctor Xu! It’s bad!"
Before Doctor Xu could respond, the door of the operating room swung open once again, and his assistant rushed out, panic in his voice. "It’s bad! The patient is brain dead!"
Doctor Xu’s entire body seemed to deflate, a wave of powerlessness crashing over him. "It’s that bad..."
The policeman’s brow furrowed, his mind racing. "Brain death... Isn’t that..."
Though he had been a policeman for years, this was a concept he was familiar with, even if it was never easy to face.
Saying that it’s brain death is technically correct, but in reality, it means the patient is already gone.
"Hello! I am the Quick Transmigration System. I have detected that Mr. Jiang Jiamian’s soul has deep resentment and strong soul power. Are you willing to join our organization and become a member?"
"Hello..."
"Hello..."
The voice of the system called countless times in the silent, dark, and depressing soul space. The young man curled up in the corner finally raised his head little by little, his numb pupils looking unfocused at the darkness in front of him, "No, I just want to die."
At the gate of the Wanling Sect, the darkness descended with a force that seemed capable of swallowing the sky and devouring the earth, leaving people with nowhere to hide.
The head of the sect reacted instinctively, raising the spiritual sword in his hand and swiftly conjuring a protective shield in the air.
However, under the pressure of the sky-devouring black dragon, this shield was as fragile as a layer of thin ice that would shatter at the touch.
In the blink of an eye, the leader was consumed by the black dragon, vanishing into the suffocating black fog!
"I, I just want to die..."
Jiang Jiamian clutched Lou Yan’s arm weakly, his voice barely more than a whisper, "Let me..."
Lou Yan’s heart clenched with pain. His gaze shifted to the Wanling Sect, who still didn’t give any answer. He gritted his teeth, frustration boiling inside him. With a thought, he commanded the black dragon to retreat, then swiftly scooped Jiang Jiamian into his arms and turned away.
In that instant, the headmaster suddenly fell from the black fog, crashing to the ground, seriously injured.
"Master!"
How could the elders possibly find the courage to pursue Lou Yan, a man whose cultivation was so formidable that not even the entire Wanling Sect could withstand his power?
They had to hurry and check on the master’s condition.
"Immortal Jiang, wake up! Please!"
Lou Yan, holding Jiang Jiamian in his arms, was as disoriented as a child lost in the world. His steps were aimless, his mind clouded with confusion. He had no idea where to begin searching for the nameless person that Fang Qi had spoken of.
He stopped in a deserted forest and hugged Jiang Jiamian tightly, calling out to him pleadingly and threatening him fiercely, saying that if he didn’t wake up, he would kill Fang Qi and destroy the Wanling Sect.
Jiang Jiamian’s mind was a blur, slipping in and out of awareness. At times, he felt snap back to reality, only for it to slip away again. Yet his memory seemed to be trapped in the tiny space of the moment of his death, unable to escape, no matter how hard he tried to pull himself away.
"Jiamian, do you hear my voice?"
"Who are you?"
In the endless darkness, Jiang Jiamian, curled up in the corner, suddenly heard a clear voice, a sound that seemed to slice through the void, like a thread of light, slipping into his ears.
"Jiamian, don’t you long for revenge? Don’t you want to make those two who pushed you into this abyss pay? If you do, I can help. In front of you is the System. It will aid you. Look up and see it."
Jiang Jiamian followed the direction of the voice and slowly stood up, "Then who are you?"
"I am God. The God who controls countless small worlds."
"God?"
"Yes. Now, don’t be afraid. Open your eyes, bind yourself to the system, and do it with confidence. You must get your revenge, boldly, on those who’ve bullied and insulted you."
"Okay, I’ll bind!"
Jiang Jiamian gritted his teeth, his expression shifting slowly in the silence. The cowardice, the isolation, the collapse, and the despair all faded, replaced by a look of quiet and cold indifference.
"Congratulations, Host, for joining the counterattack team. Our fast-travel organization is thoughtful and considerate. Before we take you to other worlds to complete your tasks, we offer you a chance to resolve the grudges in your original world first. Are you ready to return and take back control of your life?"
Jiang Jiamian clenched his fists tightly, and his face turned pale again when he thought of everything he had just experienced.
"Don’t be afraid. Go ahead, you can do this. Don’t overthink it, just close your eyes, tell yourself you’re ready, and when you open them, it’s time to start."
Jiang Jiamian pursed his lips and slowly closed his eyes.
But when he wanted to open his eyes again, he found it extremely difficult.
"Open your eyes and look at me..."
But the voice, gentle and encouraging, lingered in his ears, never fading, always guiding him.
Finally, Jiang Jiamian used all his strength to break through the darkness before his eyes, as if he had finally caught a ray of light.
He ran up almost recklessly, trying to tear open that tiny gap completely and fully expose the light on the other side.
After several attempts, he opened his eyes.
"Jiamian! You finally woke up!"
In a daze, he saw a stunningly beautiful face, its expression filled with uncontainable joy.
Seeing him wake up, the owner of that face pulled his back forward and hugged him tightly in his arms, "I’m glad you’re awake. Wait for me, Jiamian, we will meet again..."
Still lost in a daze, Jiang Jiamian pondered the meaning of the words when he suddenly saw a mask on the man’s face, and the other’s features now twisted with anxiety.
"Immortal Jiang! You finally woke up, you scared me to death!"
When Lou Yan came to his senses, he saw that the person in his arms had opened his eyes before he noticed it.
The oddest thing was, when he tried to recall the exact moment, his memory failed him, leaving that short period of time completely blank.
One moment, he was overwhelmed and struggling in panic over the fear of losing the person in his arms. The next, when he looked down, he saw that the person had already woken up, staring at his face in a daze.
"What’s wrong with me? Where is this?"
The two hugged each other for a long time before Jiang Jiamian felt that his confused memory was finally becoming clear.
He remembered that he was in the mission world.
In the world of cultivation, there is the powerful and miserable mission target, Lou Yan.
But before that, he didn’t know how he fell into an illusion. The deep pain that he thought he had forgotten, hidden in the darkest corner of his heart, surged up again like a tide and almost swallowed him.
Seeing that he had indeed woken up, Lou Yan finally calmed down, "You have a good disciple. I’m not sure what he did, but he managed to trap both of us in an illusion, nearly causing us to lose our minds."
But he didn’t expect that the condition of Immortal Jiang would be more serious than his own, who had suffered inhuman abuse when he was young.
Doesn’t that mean...
Lou Yan’s heart tightened at the thought of Jiang Jiamian’s fractured words ’I just want to die’ uttered in a daze. The mere memory of it made him too afraid to explore the full meaning behind them.
He had no idea about the past of Immortal Jiang.
However, now it appeared that his suffering might not be any less tragic than his own.
The weight of his thoughts caused Lou Yan’s heart to break, he even forgot his earlier resentment toward the person in his arms, "I’m glad you can wake up. I’ll take you back to the Golden Palace. I will take good care of you and will not let you suffer any pain again."
As for Fang Qi, he will make him pay a heavy price!
