“Bai Yingfan paused, tightening his grip on his wife’s hand. His expression softened, lost in the memory of the joy he once felt.”

Lin Peiyun held onto Bai Yingfan with one hand, gently resting the other on her stomach. A radiant, motherly glow lit up her face as she smiled. “Back then, I felt my cultivation slowly fading away, until I became no different from an ordinary person. Yet, I wasn’t afraid or sad at all.”

“Because I was about to give birth to our child—the child of the man I love most. For this child to be born, I would willingly give up my cultivation forever, without a second thought.”

“Yun!” Bai Yingfan’s eyes reddened, his voice hoarse with pleading and sorrow, a striking contrast to the powerful man and Void Darkness Stage cultivator he was. “Yun, you know that as much as I care for the child, I can’t bear to lose you. We can always have another child… someday.”

“No, you know this is our first child… our only child,” Lin Peiyun shook her head firmly, tears streaming down her face. “If we lose this baby, we may never have another. I can already feel him moving inside me. I can feel his desire to live, to come into this world safely.”

“Yingfan, let’s take this chance, shall we? Maybe… just maybe, both the baby and I will make it through.”

…

Due to the baby’s critical condition, the surgery was scheduled to proceed directly in the evening.

Since Lin Peiyun was now just an ordinary person, Xi Yue couldn’t be sure if her condition would remain the same after giving birth. Therefore, preparing a sterile operating room was essential.

Fortunately, the Bai Family had wealth and influence, and they quickly gathered a team to set up a small room within the Sumeru Clinic.

In this small room, everything was cleared out, leaving only a surgical table and a few crystals for lighting.

After hearing from Xi Yue that the air was filled with harmful bacteria that could infect Lin Peiyun and potentially cause her death, Bai Yingfan immediately brought in three high-level cultivators skilled in dust-clearing spells to thoroughly clean every inch of the operating room. He then used the disinfectant solution prepared by Xi Yue to sanitize every corner of the room.

During the surgery, Lin Peiyun could potentially lose a significant amount of blood, so it was necessary to have emergency blood packs on hand.

Xi Yue’s control over her water element spiritual power was now so refined that she could distinguish blood types with it alone.

The Bai family had no shortage of manpower, so they quickly prepared several blood packs and had Bai Yingfan use ice element spells to keep them refrigerated and ready for use.

As for the surgical instruments, Xi Yue already had a set brought from the modern world, which she had previously used for a craniotomy on Venerable Hui Yue, so there was no need for concern.

And so, within just an hour, everything was prepared for the surgery.

After witnessing Xi Yue’s strange and unusual requests, Bai Yingfan wasn’t annoyed; instead, he felt a growing trust in her medical skills. The calm and confident demeanor of this young healer was so convincing that even Bai Yingfan couldn’t help but feel reassured, believing that perhaps she truly could save his wife and child.

“Doctor Xi, please save my wife,” Bai Yingfan pleaded. He lowered his head and said huskily, “If you save her, I will do whatever you want, no matter the cost.”

Xi Yue, now dressed in surgical attire and wearing a mask, glanced at him and suddenly spoke, “If you’re still worried, why not clean yourself up, put on a surgical outfit, and join us in the operating room?”
