Douluo: Twin Origins, Suppressing the World

Chapter 252 Ma Xiaotao Awakens

Without delay, Ling Shuang quickly went to Ma Xiaotao's side and sat down on the bed next to him.

"Dean Yan, please withdraw your soul power," Ling Shuang said.

"Hmm." Yan Shaozhe nodded, waved his hand, and withdrew the ball of radiant phoenix soul power covering Ma Xiaotao.

Seeing this, Ling Shuang reached out and took Ma Xiaotao's small hand.

Her palms were burning hot, as if they were on fire.

If it weren't for her cultivation level supporting her, this body temperature would have been enough to kill an ordinary person.

Without hesitation, Ling Shuang began channeling her life force into Ma Xiaotao's body.

Regardless of the actual situation, the most urgent task now is to stabilize the evil fire in Ma Xiaotao's body.

After the soul power entered Ma Xiaotao's body, Ling Shuang was able to more clearly feel the extent of the evil fire within her.

The evil fire had already filled Ma Xiaotao's body, and if it were to erupt, it could take her life at any moment.

This is definitely not something that happens overnight; it's the result of a long period of accumulation.

Ma Xiaotao hadn't contacted her because she felt guilty, and she had been enduring the torment of the burning desire until she couldn't take it anymore and was notified by Yan Shaozhe.

Otherwise, the girl might have truly endured the utter torment and backlash of the evil fire, ultimately losing her life.

Ling Shuang also felt somewhat guilty.

During that time, he had forgotten about Ma Xiaotao. If Yan Shaozhe hadn't contacted him, he probably still wouldn't have remembered her.

Although it wasn't his obligation, he had to complete the deal once it was made; that was Ling Shuang's principle.

As Ling Shuang, imbued with the ultimate life force of divine power, entered Ma Xiaotao's body, the previously rampant evil fire gradually began to subside.

Ma Xiaotao's body temperature began to drop at a visible rate, and her brows, which had been tightly furrowed in pain, gradually relaxed.

Seeing this, Yan Shaozhe and Cai Meier, who had been closely observing Ma Xiaotao's condition, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

They could see that Ma Xiaotao's current physical condition was much better than before, when she was in danger of being harmed by the evil fire and losing her body at any moment.

At least she doesn't have to worry about those things that could suddenly erupt and take her life.

Ling Shuang released her grip and explained Ma Xiaotao's current physical condition.

"I have temporarily neutralized the evil nature of the evil fire in her body with my life force, but it has not been completely removed."

"Sister Xiaotao's health condition is still not optimistic."

"According to my initial plan, this time we should be able to completely remove the evil nature of the evil fire from Sister Tao's body."

"That's because the evil fire has accumulated over a long period of time, and the evil that had been faintly eliminated has now begun to intensify again."

"It may take some time of treatment to completely resolve the evil nature of the evil fire in her body."

"Moreover, Sister Xiaotao's body is now very fragile due to the evil fire."

"I have only temporarily stabilized the evil fire, but I have not yet had time to repair her meridians."

"Even with my current abilities, it will take some time to get her body back to its best condition."

Ling Shuang felt somewhat helpless. If Ma Xiaotao had been a little less stubborn and had found a way to resolve her inner turmoil earlier, there wouldn't have been so many problems.

Upon hearing Ling Shuang's words, Yan Shaozhe and Cai Meier felt relieved.

Although, according to Ling Shuang, Ma Xiaotao's condition is still not very good, at least she is alive, which they are already very content with.

"Thank you for your hard work, Young Master Ling!" Yan Shaozhe said sincerely.

He had always regarded Ma Xiaotao as his own daughter, and at this moment he was filled with immense gratitude.

As for Huo Yuhao and Bei Bei's situation, it never affected Yan Shaozhe's opinion of him. After all, in Yan Shaozhe's view, given Ling Shuang's personality, she wouldn't target them for no reason; something must have happened.

However, he couldn't voice these thoughts, because the entire Shrek Academy shared a common hostility towards Ling Shuang.

Even as the dean of the Martial Soul Department, he couldn't oppose the collective opinion of everyone and could only remain silent.

"It's nothing, it's my business anyway." Ling Shuang waved her hand, not caring.

He felt it was his responsibility to get this matter completely resolved before it was fully resolved.

"I need some time to help Sister Xiaotao recover from the damage to her meridians caused by the evil fire. Dean Yan, there shouldn't be any problems on your end, right?"

Ling Shuang inquired.

Ma Xiaotao's condition is not good now. In any case, the arrival of this healing-type soul master may not have a good effect, or may even have the opposite effect.

Only Ling Shuang, the possessor of the ultimate life form, can guarantee to restore Ma Xiaotao's body without further harming her.

“No problem, any time is fine.” Yan Shaozhe nodded.

During this period, most people in the academy focused their attention on their junior brother Huo Yuhao, and few people paid attention to Ma Xiaotao, the former genius of the academy.

Therefore, even if Ma Xiaotao did not appear in the public eye for a long time, it would not arouse suspicion.

It's perfectly fine for Ma Xiaotao to stay here for a while.

only……

“Young Master Ling, if you're traveling around here, you might need…”

Yan Shaozhe hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

After all, it was rather embarrassing for him, the dean of the Martial Soul Department of Shrek Academy, to ask someone for help and for Ling Shuang to make sure that the people of Shrek Academy noticed him.

"It's alright, I understand. I'll change my appearance when I travel." Ling Shuang waved her hand dismissively.

This was not a difficult task for him.

He always presented himself as Jiang Xue when he was with the Holy Spirit Cult, and now he simply changes his face when he goes out.

As for being discovered...

Even Zhongli Wu couldn't detect him face-to-face, so it would be absolutely impossible for an ordinary person to notice anything unusual!

Even if Shrek Academy's strongest student, Mu En, were to come, Ling Shuang was confident that he wouldn't be able to see anything.

"Thank you for understanding." Yan Shaozhe breathed a sigh of relief.

He felt increasingly satisfied with Ling Shuang, but also somewhat bitter.

He never intended for Ling Shuang and Shrek Academy to have deteriorated to this point!

On the bed, Ma Xiaotao suddenly let out a soft groan, her long, curled eyelashes fluttering.

Upon seeing this, Cai Meier quickly went to greet her.

Yan Shaozhe also walked over nervously.

Ma Xiaotao slowly opened her eyes, her beautiful red eyes filled with a hint of confusion.

She held her forehead and said, "Teacher, where am I...?"

She looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings, and her gaze froze when she saw Ling Shuang.

"Ling..."
