Chapter 168: The Brain Trust

Watching Zhao Tiezhu's expression, Xiaoting felt an indescribable anxiety and couldn't help but ask more questions.

"Tiezhu, what's wrong with you? Why do you look like this?"

"You've already cured the old man in room 205, why are you still worried!"

"Besides, what you did was like bringing someone back from the dead—probably only immortals can do that. Why aren't you happy?"

However, what Zhao Tiezhu said next shocked Xiaoting and she found herself frozen in place.

"So what if I brought him back from the dead? Resuscitation isn't the same as immortality!"

"Let me tell you the truth, that old man can only live for up to 5 days. Once the 5 days are up, his soul will immediately return to the Underworld, and there won't even be a chance to save him!"

Hearing Zhao Tiezhu's words, Xiaotian simply collapsed on the couch, at a loss for what to do.

It took a good while before Xiaoting managed to compose herself and her smile faded away.
