He Kangcheng and his wife and He Tianzong, who were originally guarding the door, immediately pushed the door open and rushed in when they heard the sound.

At this time, the third brother He Xingwen, who happened to be coming back from the foot of the mountain, just walked in. He heard the sound and ran over here, asking the servant who ran over beside him: "What happened to the second young lady?"

The servants passing by didn't understand the situation either. They just shook their heads blankly and ran away quickly.

He Xingwen knew that he couldn't get the answer, so he ran into Tingzhuyuan and went straight to He Lian'er's bedroom.

When he entered the room, his father, mother, and eldest brother He Tianzong had already arrived. He Lian'er was lying on the bed with a weak look on her face. Doctor Zhao, who was invited from the town, was standing beside the bed.

"Doctor Zhao, how is my daughter?" He Kangcheng asked.

He has always been worried about He Lian'er's health, but although he is an alchemist, he has no way to treat his daughter's illness. This has been a major concern for him in the past few months.

Doctor Zhao stroked his beard and said solemnly, "Forgive me for being blunt, but the second young lady's condition has worsened. We can't wait any longer. We need to give her a blood transfusion immediately!"

"Blood transfusion?" He Xingwen shouted directly, with astonishment in his eyes.

Hearing this, He Kangcheng and his wife also frowned: "Doctor Zhao, didn't you say before that the blood of the immediate family members bitten by spiders can be used as the medicine? Why do we need a blood transfusion now?"

Doctor Zhao lowered his head and looked at He Lian'er on the bed, then he slowly said: "The second young lady's illness was not very serious before. She only needed some blood as a medicine to draw out the lesions in her body, and then take medicine to recuperate, and she will recover soon. But..."

"But what?"

"But now the Second Miss has caught a cold, and because of her worries, coupled with the fact that she was punished in the lava cave a few days ago, her body has been infected with heat poison. With the alternation of cold and heat, the Second Miss's condition has worsened."

"What should we do then?" He Tianzong asked nervously.

"The only way to save the Second Miss now is to give her a blood transfusion."

After saying this, Doctor Zhao looked at the expressions of He Kangcheng and his wife, waiting for their reactions.

Anyway, he has said and done everything he should have said and done, and the rest depends on their wishes.

He Lian'er on the bed was also a little nervous at this time.

She knew that her parents and brother loved her, but she still felt unsure about asking them to risk their own lives to save hers.

Sure enough, He Kangcheng fell into deep thought after hearing this answer.

Originally, he didn't care about He Ronger's life or death, but now He Ronger was highly valued by his uncle, and the problems encountered in refining medicine these two times were all raised and solved by that child.

He had some concerns in his mind.

Xi Ruxin didn't think as much as He Kangcheng did. She only had He Lian'er in her eyes and heart, so she was naturally very anxious: "Tian Zong, hurry up, go to the main peak and call He Rong'er for me! It's just a blood transfusion, isn't it? Since I gave her a life, her life is mine, it's not too much for me to take it back."

He Tianzong did not obey immediately: "Mom, even if He Rong'er is not likable, she is still your daughter. Don't you worry about her life or death?"

He really didn't like He Ronger, but he never intended to harm her life.

After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Doctor Zhao: "Doctor Zhao, is there no other way? For example, using other people's blood, or the blood of spiritual beasts? Or other precious medicines?"

After saying that, he turned to look at He Kangcheng: "Dad, didn't the great-grandmaster say before that he had a way to cure Lian'er? I'm going to beg him right now. He must have a way to save her without a blood transfusion."

He Lian'er, lying on the bed, felt a little unhappy when she saw her elder brother who was so anxious to protect He Rong'er.

She then set her sights on her third brother who had remained silent: "Third brother, you don't want to trade your sister's life for mine, do you?"

He Xingwen looked at He Lian'er coldly, and said in a cold voice: "Lian'er, I know you are always kind, and you will definitely not agree with what Doctor Zhao said, right?"

"Besides, He Rong'er is still our relative after all. You can't bear to let your relative die to save you. If you do that, you will live in guilt for the rest of your life, right?"

He Lian'er didn't expect that her third brother would say such words at this time, and for a moment she didn't know how to respond.

If she said so, then all the medicine powder she had just taken was in vain.

But if I say no, I will appear cold-blooded and selfish, and the character I have established in the past will collapse.

She could only lower her head in silence, hatred flashing in her eyes.

This He Xingwen must have done it on purpose.

He Xingwen felt so relieved when he saw He Lian'er being humiliated.

For so long, he has been thinking about how to make everyone recognize He Lian'er's true face, even at the cost of offending his eldest brother and making his parents unhappy.

Now he suddenly changed his strategy and followed He Lian'er's "nature" in everything, countering her moves and seeing how long she could last.

However, when thinking about blood transfusion, He Xingwen still felt a little confused.

Blood again. What secret does Rong'er's blood hold?

Based on his understanding of He Lian'er's true face these days, she is not someone who would care about insignificant things. But she has repeatedly tried to get He Rong'er's blood, so there must be some shameful secrets.

No matter what, for He Ronger's sake, he couldn't let He Lianer succeed in her goal.

After hearing what the third brother said, Xi Ruxin became a little hesitant.

She was not worried about how others viewed her as a mother, but her heart ached when she heard He Xingwen say that Lian'er would be in excruciating pain if she had to live in the shadow of killing her sister.

He Lian'er saw her mother's concerns and became very anxious.

This time she was determined to succeed or die, so she burned her boats. Otherwise, she wouldn't have swallowed all the powder even though she knew it was harmful to her body.

He Lian'er raised her head, wiped the tears from her face with her hands, and cried, "Mother, what Third Brother said is right. If you want to use my sister's life to repay my life, I might as well die myself. If I am gone, mother, please give all the love and care you have for me to my sister, so that I can be happier in the afterlife."

Xi Ruxin immediately became anxious when she heard this: "No, Lian'er, you can't die! Isn't it just the death of a wild girl? Since I was willing to give up on her once, I can give up on her a second time. It's her blessing that she can die to save Lian'er!"

After she finished speaking, she wiped the tears from her face and said to He Tianzong again: "Tianzong, hurry to the main peak and call He Ronger over to me! Otherwise, don't blame me for not recognizing you as my son!"

He Tianzong was caught in a dilemma, with an embarrassed look on his face: "Mom!" He looked at He Kangcheng again: "Dad, this..."

He Kangcheng thought for a moment and said to He Tianzong, "Go to the main peak and tell He Ronger that I wrongly blamed her before. Let her come back for dinner. Let's talk it out as a family. Just give her a way out."
