Chapter 1856: Losing Both Mother & Child?
Xi Yue wasted no time and asked Uncle An to place the woman on the hospital bed. She then used her spiritual power to check on the baby.
Having spiritual power sure comes in handy. Even without an X-ray, I can’t get a clear picture of the fetus’ condition.
After Xi Yue channeled her spiritual power to scan the woman’s body, she furrowed her brows deeply. The situation was worse than she had anticipated.
Just then, Anling Yao came over. Seeing Xi Yue deep in thought with a frown, he couldn’t help but use his spiritual energy to examine the woman’s condition as well.
After completing his examination, Anling Yao shook his head and sighed, “The doctors at the Chen’s Clinic may be unscrupulous, but their attending doctor does have some skill. This woman’s body is too frail, and the baby’s condition is dire. Even if the child is born, it would likely be stillborn, and there’s a high chance both mother and child won’t survive. The only way to save her is to terminate the pregnancy.”
As soon as Anling Yang finished speaking, the fainted woman suddenly twitched and snapped open her eyes.
When she saw everyone around her, she didn’t ask where she was. Instead, her first reaction was to clutch her belly, her voice trembling as she cried out, “Don’t kill my baby! If you dare harm my child, I’ll never forgive you!”
Anling Yao sighed softly and said, “Madam, it’s not that we doctors don’t want to save lives, but your child has already suffocated in the womb. Even if born, it would only be… *sigh*… Your life is what truly matters now!”
“No! My baby is still alive!” The woman screamed hysterically upon hearing this. “I can feel it—my baby has a heartbeat, he’s breathing! He’s calling for me, begging me to save him! This is my child, and if anyone dares to harm him, I’d rather die with him!”
After screaming, the woman gently stroked her swollen belly, her tears falling uncontrollably. She murmured, “Don’t be afraid, my child. Mom will save you. I’ll make sure you come into this world safely.”
With that said, she stood up from the bed with difficulty and walked out.
Seeing this, Junjun became anxious and tugged at Xi Yue’s sleeve, pleading, “Brother Xi Yue, please save her baby! It’s so sad if the little one dies before even being born. Please, save the baby!”
Xi Yue recollected her thoughts. Gazing at the woman staggering out, she asked calmly, “Can you tell me how you went from being a cultivator to a regular person?”
The woman stopped in her tracks and looked over, her gaze shifting over with a mix of uncertainty and suspicion in her eyes.
Xi Yue added, “Is it because of this child? In other words, pregnancy will cause the spiritual power in your body to dissipate, your Divine Sense to be sealed, and your body to become weakened, turning you into a mortal. Is this process reversible?”
“How… how do you know that?” the woman gasped, then let out a bitter laugh. “Why are you asking? Are you trying to figure out who I am and see what you can gain from it?”
She might be just a mortal. But when she spoke those words, an aura of authority naturally emanated from her, as if she were someone of great power.
Xi Yue seemed completely unfazed by her presence and calmly replied, “I’m a doctor. If I’m going to save both you and your unborn child, I need to fully understand the cause of your condition. How else can I diagnose and treat you properly?”
“Can you save my child?” The woman looked at Xi Yue skeptically.
Junjun couldn’t hold back and exclaimed, “If Brother Xi Yue says he can, then he definitely can! She’s the best doctor around. Please trust Brother Xi Yue and let her save the baby, okay?”
