Chapter 1575: Chapter 1561: In Your Heart, There is a Monster Core_1 Chapter 1575: Chapter 1561: In Your Heart, There is a Monster Core_1 “Just focus on the diagnosis and don't meddle in other matters.”
Rong Jue gave him a reassuring look and turned to leave.
“Father.”
Rong Li saw his father's slightly hunched back, realizing how much his father had worried about him, and his eyes moistened.

“Come in and close the door.”
Lin Qingluo looked him up and down thoroughly, accompanied by a bird and two treasures, as they entered the yard and approached the stone table.
Rong Li's heart trembled, and a chill ran down his back.
Over the past ten years, he had experienced various forms of discrimination, contempt, resentment, and insult.
He thought he had forged a heart of stone and would no longer become self-deprecating in response to the scrutiny of others.
However, the young girl's gaze gave the illusion of seeing through everything.
It made him scared, afraid to meet her eyes.
Lin Qingluo sat down at the stone table and took out a full set of temaking utensils, skillfully adding tea leaves and brewing tea.
Her casual and unrestrained actions seemed as if she was not here to diagnose someone but rather to stroll in the garden, admire the scenery, and chat idly.
In fact, she had a hunch about Rong Li's peculiar illness and wouldn't try to cure him without understanding the truth.
“The tea brewed by Immortal is truly fragrant, with an enticing aroma that delights the heart and soul.”
“Immortal's temaking skill is exquisite, with movements as smooth as flowing water, pleasing to the eyes.”
Jiang Feng and Mo Yi had witnessed the descent of the Vine Dragon, and their admiration for the Immortal Monarch had risen to new heights.
The two of them were full of praise, torrential in their flattery, completely ignoring Rong Li's astonished eyes as they watched.
These two mere four or five-year-olds had such high-level bootlicking skills.
Are all the children nowadays so clever?
“Sit down. I have some questions for you.”
Lin Qingluo smiled unconcernedly and filled a cup of tea for everyone present.
One person, one bird, and two treasures all focused their eyes on Rong Li.
It had the aura of a three-hall interrogation trial.
Rong Li's heart trembled again. Facing the four burning gazes, he braced himself, walked over to the stone table, and sat down stiffly.
“Young Master Rong, please tell me the truth.”
Lin Qingluo got straight to the point: “Ten years ago, did you accompany the young disciples of your clan to the Monster Realm for training?”
“Yes.”
Upon hearing the words “Monster Realm,” Rong Li's heart shuddered, revealing a trace of pain on his face.
“In the Monster Realm,”
Lin Qingluo was unmoved, “were you betrayed by your clansmen, severely wounded, and unconscious?”
Rong Li's breath caught, and he suddenly looked up at her, astonished.
“Yes or no?”
Lin Qingluo's pretty face darkened, her eyes cold.
“Yes.”
Rong Li was extremely shocked, and his breathing almost stopped.
Lin Qingluo continued to interrogate, “When your life was in peril, how did you recover?”
“I-I don't know.”
Rong Li's eyes showed panic, his voice barely audible.
“Your body,”
Little Kingfisher, being impatient, spoke before its master, “when did it start to change?”
Rong Li broke into a cold sweat, “Less than a month after I returned from the Monster Realm.”
“Demonization of the body.”
Lin Qingluo was puzzled, “Haven't you ever wondered what happened?”
“Demonization…”
Rong Li's eyes were full of fear, his brows furrowed in pain.
“There is a Monster Core in your heart.”
Lin Qingluo's brow flickered with golden light as she used the Inner Vision Technique, clearly seeing a pale-green Monster Core emitting a faint fluorescence, embedded in Rong Li's heart, already integrated with his blood vessels.
“This Monster Core is sustaining your life.”
Little Kingfisher, knowing the inside story, helped her master explain, “The demonization of your body is also related to it.”
“Monster Core?”
Rong Li was terrified, clutching his chest and staring in disbelief with wide eyes.
