The Unruly Immortals

Li Huowang lay on the clean hospital bed, his eyes wide open, looking at everything around him.

Li Huowang glanced around, then looked at himself. He seemed to understand something, yet also seemed to understand nothing at all.

As the ringing in his ears gradually disappeared, a familiar voice sounded, "Li Huowang? You finally woke up? That's great!!"

Li Huowang turned his head to look at Yi Donglai beside him, who was gazing at him with a worried expression.

"I... I'm awake. I finally woke up. Those hallucinations were too terrifying, but fortunately, they're all fake. Thankfully, they're all fake." Li Huowang's face immediately showed an unusually relieved expression.

"Nothing is fake? It's all real! Time has started again! It's just different starting time! Haven't you noticed that you have only one eye left?" Yi Donglai's deeply anxious voice raised a notch.

He seemed so concerned and scared, his eyes filled with red veins.

Li Huowang looked at him strangely, "Doctor Yi, don't test me anymore. My illness is really cured. I understand that everything before was fake."

"I know. I've read your book, all the occurrences in those hallucinations were just external manifestations caused by my fluctuating emotions."

"But rest assured, I've completely woken up. I will no longer harm myself or commit suicide."

However, just then, the atmosphere in the room began to change, bright turning to darkness, and Yi Donglai's upper body, who was walking towards the door, gradually enlarged, almost reaching the ceiling, a horrendous laugh echoed from over there.

"Haha! You think you've succeeded? Ignorant fool!"

As Yi Donglai turned around, everything around began to change, the floor started to rise in dark water, the entire ward started to crumble, the previous scenes began to appear again.

"Since you've abandoned your grasp of power, you can no longer stop my infection. You're finished! Da Nuo is finished too! Now White Jade Capital is mine!"

Fear and despair Heavenly Dao enveloped everything they produced, rushing toward Li Huowang.

Just as the atmosphere was about to reach its peak, Li Huowang stared blankly at the distorted-headed Yi Donglai, "Doctor Yi, really, don't test me anymore, I have truly healed."

As soon as these words came out, everything around melted quickly like snow under the sun, Yi Donglai's expression began to struggle, but ultimately his upper body returned to its normal size.

Everything returned to normal as Yi Donglai nodded towards Li Huowang in satisfaction. "Not bad, test passed, congratulations, little Li, your illness is cured, all the effort I put in wasn't wasted after all."

Just as he finished these words, suddenly many people poured into the room, clapping happily at Li Huowang, Zhao Shuangdian put on a doctor's coat, Wu Qi also donned a white coat. Chen Hongyu also wore a white coat.

They announced joyfully to Li Huowang: "Congratulations, your illness is finally cured."

"What?" Yi Donglai looked at them in shock, a hint of fear in his eyes, "Impossible, you clearly..."

Suddenly he remembered something, expression looking extremely terrified toward Li Huowang, "Could what you said be true?"

Yi Donglai's reaction startled the others, they began to stabilize him.

But the more the other doctors spoke, the more intense Yi Donglai's reaction became, his eyes growing increasingly terrified and scared.

Eventually the orderlies came with a binding clothes and put Yi Donglai inside.

Watching the far away shouting and calling Yi Donglai, Qing Wanglai said to Li Huowang with a bit of headache: "You really can do it, cured yourself, and the doctor went mad."

Li Huowang looked at Yi Donglai disappearing at the corridor's end, with a smile on his face said: "It's alright, there are so many good doctors here, he will surely get better at this White Tower Hospital."

Qing Wanglai reached out to pat Li Huowang's shoulder, "Little Li, let's go, I'll write you a note, so you can transfer from the ICU to the general ward, you'll have more freedom generally."

Upon reaching Qing Wanglai's office, Qing Wanglai took out a white disposable cup and brewed a bag of tea for Li Huowang. "Hospital's condition is simple. Is Oolong tea okay?"

"I'm only in high school, can't tell the difference."

"Haha, you're straightforward, wait a bit," Qing Wanglai opened the drawer and began to search.

"No rush, I have plenty of time now." Li Huowang said, gently inhaling the scent of disinfectant in the air, feeling extremely relieved.

"You kid, talking like an old man, after discharge, go back and thoroughly study, aim for a good college."

"Doctor Qing, if I go to college, what will you do?" Li Huowang casually asked him.

"What else can I do, continue working hard at the hospital, write papers using you, see if I can get rated this time."

"Persuading people to study medicine is like getting struck by lightning, staying up late working overtime, and having to act with patients like you."

Qing Wanglai took a pen from his chest, scratched his ear, then began to swiftly draw Ghost Drawn Talisman on paper.

Li Huowang looked at what he drew, squeezed the disposable cup in his hand, stared at the brown tea inside and asked, "Doctor, can you help me with something?"

Qing Wanglai paused, looked at him. "Sure, we're friends now, tell me, what do you want me to help with?"

Qing Wanglai's luxury car stopped at the Sixth People's Hospital entrance with Li Huowang inside, through Qing Wanglai's connections, they successfully entered a private ward, the person lying there was none other than Yang Na.

Seeing Li Huowang walk in, Qing Wanglai stopped outside, took the doctor's Yang Na's medical records, which stated severe depression.

Li Huowang walked to the bedside, pulled out a chair to sit down, silently looking at Yang Na on the bed with motionless eyes, like a puppet. "Nana, what I promised you I did, see, I really got better."

"I will always be with you, accompany you until the day you recover, when you're better, we'll take the college entrance exam again, we'll go to college together, and this time I'll be with you."

Li Huowang gently held Yang Na's emaciated, scar-covered right hand, speaking softly, not knowing how long he spoke, as outside light shifted from bright to dark and dark to bright again, when he felt Yang Na's hand gently grip his hand, Li Huowang smiled.

He extended his arms and wrapped Yang Na tightly in his embrace.
