Chapter 746 lames covered his mouth and coughed. When he removed his hand, he saw that it was covered with blood
Tiny bugs could be seen crawling in his blood. Quincy‘s face turned pale upon noticing them, and she exclaimed, “I–James, there are bugs in your blood…”
James picked up some tissue and wiped his hands clean. He replied weakly, “This must be the Gu in my body. It‘s the reason
my body is deteriorating. I need to find out how to cultivate True Energy as soon as possible. Otherwise, the most I‘ll have is three months before I‘m completely paralyzed.”
James was a doctor and knew his body‘s condition very well. The Gu in his body had been laying eggs in his blood and multiplying in number.
Soon, the Gu would cause him to be completely paralyzed and bedridden, unable to move a single muscle.
His body would become home to countless Gus. “H–How should we go about this?” Quincy asked worriedly.

“But...”
Quincy‘s heart ached to see James‘ pale face with blood on his lips. “I–
I can‘t bear to see you like this.” Quincy‘s eyes were slightly red, and tears rolled down her cheeks. “It hurts me to see you like this, you know?”
“I‘m alright. I‘m good. Don‘t cry.” James tried his best to comfort her.
Quincy suddenly hugged James.
“James, let‘s not care about anything else, okay? I‘ll accompany you for the rest of your life. Even if it‘s for one day, please let me accompany you through your last leg.”
James could smell the fragrance from her body. He was touched, and her words warmed his heart
James reached out his hands and embraced Quincy. “Okay.” He nodded gently.
He was unsure how long he had left and if his estimation was correct.
He was also unsure if an Internal Martial arts cultivation method was present in the underground cavern where he obtained the medical book.
If it was not, his only chance at obtaining a cultivation method would be by getting in touch
with the Cadens, retrieving the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside‘s Edge, and unraveling the secrets within the painting
If that were to fail, the only thing awaiting him would be death.
There were countless uncertainties in the future, and he had no idea what fate had in store for
him.
However, he did not want to miss his chance with the person in front of him.

The two silently shared a hug.
After a while, James said weakly,
“You‘re too heavy. Your weight is suffocating me.” Quincy blushed and immediately pushed herself off James. She stood aside with her head lowered and murmured, “S–
Sorry.”
James said with a smile, “just kidding. I‘d be able to lift ten times your weight if I was healthy.”
Quincy quietly raised her head and peeked at James.
Since James had agreed, she was technically his girlfriend for the time being. However, she was unable to rejoice in that fact.
Perhaps James only accepted her because he knew that he could not live for long “What‘s the matter?
Why are you crying again?” James looked at Quincy‘s teary face and asked puzzledly. “Alright. Don‘t cry. I‘m fine. I‘m sure I‘ll win the battle against fate.” “James... I‘m scared. I‘
“Silly, what kind of nonsense is that? I‘m a little hungry. Go get me something to eat.”
