Gu Qingluan replied, âThe Island of No Return.â
Prince Yun widened his eyes slightly and asked, âYouâre from the Island of No Return?â
The Island of No Return had always been mysterious, and the only person known to have appeared from there recently was Liu Meng in Tianjing.
However, Liu Meng rarely showed himself to outsiders, making it difficult for anyone to meet him.
Moreover, considering the distance between Dingyang Nation and Tianjing, it would take quite some time for Prince Yun to invite him.
Prince Yun had also dispatched a team to search for the Island of No Return in the East Sea.
Unexpectedly, someone claiming to be from the Island of No Return had come for a consultation.
Prince Yun scrutinized the woman in front of him.
She was undeniably beautiful, especially her eyes, which seemed enchanting and full of vitality.
In the realm of cultivation, one could not judge someoneâs age by their appearance.
Prince Yun couldnât discern Gu Qingluanâs cultivation level, so he regarded her as a senior due to her age.
He stood up, and his attitude became warmer than before. âSo, you are a senior from the Island of No Return. I apologize for my previous oversight.â
Gu Qingluan raised an eyebrow; did she really look that old?
Prince Yun was nearly twice her age. She didnât feel comfortable being addressed as a âseniorâ.
âYou can still call me Miss Gu.â
Prince Yun adapted easily. âAlright, Miss Gu, could you please examine my wife?â
Although he called her âMissâ, he still regarded her as a âseniorâ in his heart. However, if she disliked that term, he wouldnât use it directly.
After all, women of all ages seemed to be sensitive about their age.
A maid lifted the curtain, and the two entered one after the other.
Inside the room, there was a bed with a sleeping beauty lying on it.
Compared to Prince Yun, the lady on the bed appeared much older.
Of course, her features were delicate, and if she were ten years younger, she would undoubtedly be a rare beauty.
However, compared to Prince Yun, the age gap seemed significant.
Prince Yun doted on his wife greatly, and Gu Qingluan had initially thought that the lady must be exceptionally beautiful.
With that thought in mind, Gu Qingluan started to focus on her examination. She sat down by the bedside and placed her hand on the pulse of Prince Yunâs wife.
Prince Yun stood by, suppressing his anxious emotions as he waited.
He alternated between watching his wife and observing Gu Qingluan, hoping to find answers from her expression.
After examining the pulse for a while, Gu Qingluan removed her hand.
âMiss Gu, can you treat my wifeâs condition?â
âIt is treatable, but the most significant issue with her health isnât the injury on her chest; itâs an old ailment.â
Yunwang nodded in agreement. âExactly! Master Su also mentioned that.â
Since childhood, Prince Yunâs wife had been frail, often plagued by minor illnesses, and occasionally suffering from severe ones. After marrying Prince Yun, she had undergone meticulous care and was much healthier than when they first met, but she still had some health issues, making her weaker than the average person.
This time, when facing an assassin, Consort Yun sacrificed herself to shield Prince Yun from a sword strike. It was as if that strike had ignited a hidden issue within her body. Someone who had been leading a normal life with proper care and medical attention suddenly deteriorated.
If it werenât for Prince Yun sparing no expense on medicines and the treatment of renowned physicians, Consort Yun would have long since passed away.
However, this situation couldnât be sustained for much longer.
The vitality within Consort Yunâs body was rapidly draining away.
Such symptoms were usually associated with the elderly.
Physicians could save the critically ill but couldnât stop the effects of aging.
As people age, the first sign is a decline in bodily functions, a depletion of vitality. Except for immortals, no one could halt this process.
Even immortals faced the inevitability of aging and mortality.
Immortality remained a mere fantasy, an unattainable dream.
To this day, no one had achieved it.
By all accounts, Consort Yun wasnât old, and her body shouldnât have exhibited such symptoms. It was likely due to something she experienced during her youth that had an impact on her health.
This recent injury had accelerated her aging process.
Of course, since Consort Yunâs condition wasnât a natural result of aging but rather a consequence of her experiences, Gu Qingluan had a method to defy fate and grant her a new lease on life.
Upon hearing that Gu Qingluan had a solution, Prince Yun was filled with astonishment. âWhat method is it? Miss Gu, please tell me. Even if it means exchanging my own lifespan for Consortâs vitality, I am willing to do so..â
