DD2-Chapter 278: I Beg You Not to Tell Dong'er, and Go Pick the Immortal Herb for Her!
[At a glance, Huo Yuhao saw a lot of densely packed text on the parchment.]
[However, he was not upset by this; he patiently continued to read the parchment.]
["Yuhao, when you see this letter, I believe you are already capable of handling this matter. The two of us — the old man and my second brother — decided to entrust this task to you after much hesitation."]
["Please don't shy away from this matter. The reason we must do this is that we are left with no choice, so I hope you will understand. Moreover, this is indeed for the future happiness of both you and Dong'er."]
[When Huo Yuhao saw this, his eyebrows raised slightly, and his expression became more solemn. The content in the parchment had captured his full attention. He continued reading and soon came to the next part.]
["Dong'er was born in the Clear Sky Sect. She has suffered from congenital deficiencies since childhood and has a weak physique."]
["To improve her health, my second brother and Dong'er's parents tried everything possible. However, nothing seemed to work."]
["When she was three years old, we discovered she had a strange illness. This condition was very peculiar."]
["You know that at the age of three, a person's martial soul is still dormant and takes six years to awaken."]
["But Dong'er's martial soul awakened directly at the age of three, and two of them awakened simultaneously. Her already fragile body faced an enormous burden due to this martial soul mutation, resulting in significant hidden trauma."]
["If you look closely, you'll find that when Dong'er overuses her abilities, a golden pattern resembling a trident appears on her forehead."]
["That pattern is a seal imposed by her father to suppress the trauma within her body."]
["Her parents have been away from the Clear Sky Sect all year to find natural treasures to treat her illness, leaving my second brother and me to take care of her."]
["At one point, her father mentioned that the hidden injuries in Dong'er's body could only be suppressed by the seal until she turned twenty. If her injuries weren't healed by then, she might..."]
[Huo Yuhao kept reading the contents of the parchment.]
[After reading this, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.]
[He was indeed worried about Wang Dong'er's condition.]
[But more importantly, he felt confused.]
[He and Wang Dong'er had shared a bed for so many years, yet he had never noticed anything wrong with her condition.]
[Wang Dong'er had promised him that there would be no secrets between them, and there never would be.]
[Now, Huo Yuhao was sure he had never heard Wang Dong'er mention anything from the parchment.]
[If that were the case, what did this mean?]
[Contemplating this, his suspicions deepened.]
At this moment, in the gap between the planes, Xiao Wu couldn't help but feel bewildered after seeing the contents of the parchment.
Even she didn't know what was being said.
Her expression turned strange as she looked at the parchment on the screen.
Tang San, standing beside her, started to sweat profusely.
Although he remained there, he felt extremely uncomfortable.
Xiao Wu had not spoken until now, but he sensed that she might be questioning him.
Thus, Tang San felt truly worried at that moment.
Huo Yuhao let out a sigh of relief after noticing this.
"It's true."
When he previously saw the brocade bag, he had already guessed its significance.
After all, he had gone through a similar experience once.
So he could somewhat predict its contents.
But for Huo Yuhao in the gap between the planes, what he was most curious about was how Huo Yuhao in the parallel world would handle this situation.
He believed he had sacrificed everything for this purpose.
Though he later realized he had been deceived, he dared to give everything for Wang Dong'er.
But what about Huo Yuhao in the parallel world? Did he share the same courage?
With these thoughts in mind, Huo Yuhao continued to observe the screen.
Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiuer beside him also kept a serious expression as they watched intently.
At this moment, on the screen:
[Huo Yuhao is still looking at the contents of the parchment.]
[He saw Niu Tian's continue writing: ]
["After constant searching, Dong'er's parents finally found a immortal herb that can cure her hidden injuries."]
["However, this Immortal herb is extremely difficult to obtain."]
["Its requirements are very specific — it must be a man who has a romantic relationship with Dong'er and treats her as his only lover, using his blood and sweat to retrieve it."]
["If you attempt to forcefully pick this magical herb, it will only get damaged and lose its effectiveness. It has an appropriate name: Yearning Heartbroken Red Immortal Herb."]
["We have tried various methods to collect it, but have failed each time."]
["To preserve this last glimmer of hope, we can only endure, waiting for the one who loves Dong'er deeply to appear."]
["Dong'er's parents have searched for other alternatives for her, but Dong'er is now seventeen years old. She is drawing closer to twenty, yet her parents have not returned, and hope is dwindling."]
["So, when we learned of your existence, we felt immense joy. We placed great hope in you."]
["I ask you again, please collect the immortal herb for Dong'er. This is for your future happiness and Dong'er's life."]
["Moreover, Dong'er's life is now on a countdown, so I implore you not to delay. After reading the contents of the parchment, please help Dong'er pick the immortal herb as soon as possible."]
["One last thing I must explain to you is that the reason for the seal on this letter is that Dong'er does not know she is secretly injured."]
["To allow her to grow up happily, we did not disclose this information to her. We love her dearly and only hope for her safety."]
["Therefore, we beg you not to reveal the truth to her until you bring back the Yearning Heartbroken Red. Even if you ultimately do not succeed, we hope that she can find happiness in her final moments."]
