Yan Beifeng shook his head, his lips tightly pressed together, with a resolute expression, "There’s no need to ask anyone, just treat it this way."
Upon hearing his words, the female cultivator was a bit worried, "The thod from the Guanquan Valley He Family isn’t mainstream."
She was very clear about the predicant faced by a prospective Dao partner—overcoming it would bring boundless prospects, failing would an an abyss—his situation was too unique and had been delayed for so long. Once a choice was made, there would be hardly any chance for alteration.
Yan Beifeng smiled and uttered a heart-piercing statent, "Because he said... unfortunately, I’m not a female cultivator."
The female cultivator frowned, "Isn’t that a common statent? You were never a female cultivator."
"That’s the crux of the matter," Yan Beifeng smiled, but his smile carried a hint of eeriness, "Ya Juan, I’ve always been hesitant to tell you, but since Feng Jun ntioned it, I’ll say this... the reason this injury has dragged on so long is primarily because I’m a Qianxiu."
"I don’t think so," the female cultivator was a bit agitated, "I told you back then, we could both go to the Qinggang Sect. You said I was suitable for Crimson Pheonix and that you’d join , which is why I ca to Crimson Pheonix. And now you say... you’ve been wronged?"
"I am willing to be wronged," Yan Beifeng retorted, then imdiately smiled and continued speaking, "Would you listen to completely? I didn’t want you to feel guilty, so I never ntioned it, but I have my reasons."
The female cultivator, addressed as Ya Juan, spoke with a darkened face, "What kind of reasoning do you an... isn’t it just because there are more female cultivators in Crimson Pheonix Sect?"
"Could you be reasonable?" Yan Beifeng helplessly patted his forehead, "No matter how many female cultivators there are in Crimson Pheonix Sect, aren’t you still the most beautiful?"
Upon hearing this, the female cultivator’s face imdiately blossod with an infinitely beautiful smile, though she continued to stubbornly say, "Don’t tell things like that, weren’t you quite fond of Snow Lotus from Huahua Valley? That minor Qi Cultivator taking care of Snow Lotus is much younger than ."
"Right now, I’m discussing healing!" Yan Beifeng could no longer bear it, "Do you know why there are five treatnt plans?"
Previously, he really didn’t want to tell her these things; now he simply couldn’t refrain from explaining.
The female cultivator blinked and curiously asked, "Isn’t it because of different ideologies and traditions?"
"Well, what you say does make sense," Yan Beifeng sighed deeply, "But let tell you, the key point is I’m a male cultivator, a very rare male cultivator in Crimson Pheonix Sect... if I were a female cultivator, there would’ve already been a treatnt plan!"
In the end, Crimson Pheonix Sect is a sect of female cultivators, as Kong Ziyi questioned—you did encounter rare circumstances, but within the thousand-year history of Crimson Pheonix Sect, there couldn’t be a lack of examples like yours, right?
So, how did they resolve these issues?
Yan Beifeng’s response... actually was quite standard, without adding any personal bias.
Such occurrences are rare and typically show clear individual differences, so there are ans to resolve them but not standard solutions; a discussion is required to make a decision.
Yes, a discussion would suffice, but the crux of the issue is that all these discussions are based on the premise that "Crimson Pheonix Sect cultivators are female."
Yan Beifeng being male is the tragedy, not just a matter of gender discrimination, but... this Fire Attribute cultivation thod should, in theory, be male-dominated.
Just like Yinsha Sect should actually have more female cultivators.
In essence, Crimson Pheonix Sect’s Cultivation Technique and thods aren’t very friendly toward male cultivators, considering more for female cultivators.
Alright, in fact, this isn’t necessarily a matter of right or wrong; female cultivators, though softer in nature, also possess fierce qualities, and Crimson Pheonix Sect’s Cultivation Technique isn’t fundantally flawed.
But the issue lies in the sect truly being established for female cultivators.
Previously, Crimson Pheonix Sect faced similar issues but always delved into research, resulting in solutions for female cultivators.
Yan Beifeng’s example, however, essentially falls into unexpected circumstances.
Male and female cultivators are both cultivators, sharing many commonalities, yet so aspects are diatrically opposed.
The Cultivation Technique of Crimson Pheonix Sect can’t be said to be unauthentic, but ultimately it’s not friendly enough for male cultivators, leading to vastly differing opinions regarding Yan Beifeng’s condition.
Of course, if several such incidents occur, Crimson Pheonix Sect would gain experience, and previous examples could serve as trial and error.
However, Practitioner Yan doesn’t wish to be an error margin, nor do doctors with opposing viewpoints wish to support trials based on differing perspectives.
Therefore, when Feng Jun pointed out that your problem stems from not being a female cultivator, Yan Beifeng imdiately realized the other’s competence.
He provided so many dicinal materials yet claid to want to know the "order of ingestion," already having the intention to test the opponent, but the opponent only selected four kinds of dicinal materials and pointed out conflicts among various treatnt plans, which was truly impressive.
Feng Jun didn’t spell it out, but Yan Beifeng already understood.
After listening to his explanation, the female cultivator basically understood too, but she raised another question, "What do the extra two types of herbs an, do you use them or not?"
"Just auxiliary dications," Yan Beifeng answered casually, he had beco a good doctor after being sick for so long, "I’m asking which main ingredients should be used, during the treatnt process, auxiliary ans are inevitable."
The female cultivator nodded but was still hesitant, "So his words... you believe them without reservation?"
"I can only take a gamble," Yan Beifeng said with a poker face, "If I go ask others again, this dicine won’t be possible to take."
After a pause, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Ten thousand Spirit Stones don’t an much to . If it really doesn’t heal, then spending only ten thousand Spirit Stones to see Taiqing’s fun, isn’t it also interesting?"
After returning to the Crimson Pheonix Sect, Yan Beifeng went directly into closed-door cultivation to take the dication, while the female cultivator hesitated and went to find a physician in the sect to see if Yan Beifeng’s choice was correct.
The physician looked at the prescription given by Feng Jun, deliberated for a long ti before asking noncommittally, "He has already taken the dicine and is currently in closed-door cultivation?"
The female cultivator nodded, replied sowhat embarrassedly, "He seed to be in a hurry and said if he consulted others again, maybe it wouldn’t cure, so he took the dicine first to strengthen his decision."
The physician nodded and wasn’t angry, "It is also a choice, better than waiting all the ti, rest assured, this treatnt plan won’t kill, at most the foundation is ruined, and cultivation level lost."
He knew clearly in his heart, the sect had reached a dead end in treating Yan Beifeng, breaking the situation required external help, or Yan himself needed to make a choice, others couldn’t make the decision for him — even urging wasn’t convenient.
But at the sa ti, the physician was very curious, "What kind of healer have you found that could make Yan decide? It’s truly shocking."
The female cultivator recounted today’s experience, when she ntioned Feng Jun saying, "Yan is not a female cultivator, so it’s hard to treat," the physician couldn’t help but nod, "This person... has so insight!"
Then she spoke about her Dao companion’s feelings and Yan’s evaluation of Feng Jun, "... He said even if there’s a problem, spending ten thousand to see Taiqing disciple’s joke is worthwhile."
The physician couldn’t help but speak, "Personally, I think Yan likely won’t have a chance to see Taiqing’s joke."
"Why?" the female cultivator asked instinctively, then her eyes lit up, "Do you think the plan has a high chance of success?"
The physician pondered before replying, "The plan... I reserve my opinion, but I think the person you found might be very extraordinary, even Taiqing might have to acknowledge his calculation ability, and he truly understands dicine."
What a joke, a sentence "Unfortunately, you’re not a female cultivator" is enough to show his calculation ability and dical knowledge.
Seeing this, the female cultivator didn’t worry about this issue anymore and asked sowhat embarrassedly, "Then... how can we quickly know if Beifeng’s condition has improved?"
Upon hearing this, the physician got up imdiately, "You didn’t ntion I almost forgot, the first fierce dicine ingested, within half a day you’ll know if it’s the worst result... co, let’s wait outside his door."
On the other side, after receiving ten thousand Spirit Stones, Kong Ziyi was also a little uneasy— although she had confidence in Feng Jun, "Mountain Master Feng, Beifeng is not a female cultivator, so what’s up with that?"
Feng Jun went through his analysis again, during the matching process, he found so dicinal combinations would cause strange and severe reactions in Yan Beifeng, but when these dicines were used on the other three Crimson Pheonix elders, the reactions were controllable.
Although those three female cultivators themselves had no injuries, those strange reactions didn’t have much relation to injuries, he continued to deduce, then discovered this thing was influenced by gender.
Thinking back, he had previously ntioned to Kong Ziyi the compatibility issue between fire attributes and female cultivators, and this person asked about the "dication sequence," he believed there was a high probability the person was troubled by gender factors.
Plus, after three years without extrely effective treatnt, he had reason to believe: in Yan Beifeng’s treatnt plan, there should be considerable disagreent—in theory, it should be like that.
With a Golden Finger on him, using above-average intelligence, deducing led to the conclusion, the truth was that simple.
Of course, so inconvenient things, he omitted.
Kong Ziyi listened but wasn’t deeply moved, yet her two handkerchief-friends were shocked—both were elders and knew after Yan Beifeng was injured, the sect had indeed invited many famous doctors and high-skilled people, but it ended unresolved.
The two more assuredly confird they hadn’t leaked Yan Beifeng’s specifics to Kong Ziyi, being fellow Crimson Pheonix disciples, they couldn’t privately disclose the sect’s secrets to each other.
In fact, they didn’t know Yan Beifeng might co, they’d only inford the female cultivator with related news.
Thus, they took the initiative to have a check-up themselves, no major problems were found.
