Lu Ye thought that if Hua Ci beca more mature, she would look just like the woman before his eyes.
“I don’t find you familiar, though. Anyway, I think you’ve fully inherited Tyrant Blade Technique from your Father, and I’m sure you’ll even be better than him one day. The Ye Family is lucky to have an heir like you,” the Divine Healer said. Although her expression remained impassive, her voice was soft and caring.
Even though she was a doctor, she was also a Ninth-Order Cloud River Realm Master. That was why Wu Xie never made a move.
If they got into a fight, Wu Xie had the confidence to defeat her, but that would take so ti.
She could clearly feel the battle between Lu Ye and Wu Xie at the entrance earlier. It wasn’t surprising that she could recognise Tyrant Blade Technique. After all, Ye Ying would co to this place to get dicine from ti to ti.
“Thanks for your complint, fellow cultivator.” Lu Ye quickly pulled himself together.
The Divine Healer frowned. “Your Father called Senior Sister, so you should call Senior. I’m much older than you think.”
[No, I’ll never call her Senior!]
Even if the Divine Healer was ugly, Lu Ye wouldn’t mind calling her Senior. However, she looked identical to Hua Ci, so he could never call her that.
“My Sister is down with the sa illness again, and it seems to be more severe this ti. Please help her!” Lu Ye pretended that he didn’t hear her. A mont later, he said, “Also, Brother Zhuang…”
“He’s hopeless.” The Divine Healer didn’t even bother to spare Zhuang Bufan a glance.
In an instant, Zhuang Bufan felt cold all over his body. His injury was indeed severe, and Healing Pills didn’t work on him at all. The only person in the world who could save him was the Divine Healer. If even the woman said he was hopeless, he was bound to die.
With a sorrowful expression, he said, “Senior, I…”
“Although I have no idea what you’ve done, your vitality and soul have been greatly damaged. I’m unable to cure you. Anyway, you’re left with three months to live. During this period, your cultivation will slowly weaken until all your Spiritual Power is gone. You’ll lose your life when that mont cos.”
Zhuang Bufan was despondent.
The Divine Healer didn’t even look at him, but she was already aware of what was wrong with his body. It showed that her dical skills were indeed unrivalled, but it also ant that her judgent wouldn’t be wrong.
[I only have three months left to live…] As if struck by lightning, Zhuang Bufan fell into a dazed state.
Just one month ago, he was still a healthy man who loved travelling around the world. Now, he was only left with three months to live.
Life was indeed full of uncertainties.
He regretted his decision of trying to snatch that thing, and he beca curious enough to try it out. Much to his surprise, the item made his health deteriorate rapidly.
Anyway, there was no use crying over spilt milk as he couldn’t reverse ti.
“Do you really have no solution at all, fellow cultivator?” Lu Ye frowned.
Zhuang Bufan was indeed a kind-hearted guy. Even though he was badly injured, he never hesitated to help when he saw that so commoners were in trouble. It was a sha that such a person was only left with three months to live due to so reason.
The Divine Healer shook her head in response.
Lu Ye fell silent for a mont before he recalled sothing. He quickly fished out a jade bottle from his Storage Bag and showed it to the Divine Healer. “Do you think it’s useful for Brother Zhuang?”
The Divine Healer took the bottle and had a look inside. Then, she arched a brow and glanced at Lu Ye in shock. “Are you sure about using it on him?”
The content inside the jade bottle was none other than Soul Cleansing Water.
Since the Divine Healer had said that Zhuang Bufan’s vitality and soul were damaged, Soul Cleansing Water was supposedly useful.
Although Lu Ye wasn’t close to Zhuang Bufan, he respected the latter. It was a sha if such a person passed away. Therefore, even though Lu Ye was fully aware that the people he ca across in the Hidden Realm might not be alive, he still wanted to help them.
“Since I’ve decided to help, I’m fine with using it on him.”
The Divine Healer explained, “With this item, I can alleviate his pain, but it’s impossible to save him.”
A cultivator’s body was like a balloon. Even if he was injured, he would be fine as long as he was treated in ti. However, Zhuang Bufan’s body was beyond repair in the Divine Healer’s eyes. As such, even the Soul Cleansing Water couldn’t save him.
Zhuang Bufan must’ve activated a move that was unbearable for his body, which caused such a horrible consequence.
“Brother Ye, you’d better not waste such an expensive item on . I’ve been single and carefree for all my life. I’m glad that I got to know soone like you before my death.”
He was a Ninth-Order Master, after all. Although he was dejected, he soon pulled himself together.
Even though he had no idea what Lu Ye had fished out, it was certainly an extraordinary treasure, seeing how surprised the Divine Healer looked.
The Divine Healer glanced at him and explained gently, “You’d better accept his gesture of kindness. Otherwise, the pain you’ve been suppressing will drive you mad in three days. Life will be a living Hell for you by then.”
Zhuang Bufan shuddered upon hearing that. To many cultivators, life and death were part and parcel of life. Sotis, death wasn’t horrible. However, it was unacceptable if one had to go through excruciating pain before death.
“Alright, then. Thanks, Brother Ye and Senior.” Zhuang Bufan saluted them with a solemn expression.
The Divine Healer nodded and kept the jade bottle before examining Ye Liuli. “Her chronic illness has seized her again. I’m unable to cure her, but I can alleviate her suffering. Anyway, the prescription is ready. Just co back tomorrow to get the dicine.”
“Thanks, fellow cultivator.”
“There’s no need to thank . It’s a doctor’s duty to help the patients. Moreover, you have to pay for the dical expenses.”
Zhuang Bufan quickly asked, “How much is it? I have so money with …”
“You can’t afford it.” The Divine Healer cut him off and turned to look at Lu Ye. “You’ve defeated Wu Xie and killed so of their cultivators today. There’s no way those from Heavenly Gully Cult will let the matter go. There has never been any fight in the Valley of dicine, and I don’t want it to happen again to disrupt the tranquillity here.”
“I understand. Don’t worry. I’ll make sure those from Heavenly Gully Cult won’t disturb you again.”
“That’s for the best.” The Divine Healer continued doing her work. “There are many huts outside to choose from. Just stay here for the ti being.”
Lu Ye then left with Yi Yi and Zhuang Bufan. He found two huts and respectively helped Ye Liuli and Zhuang Bufan settle down.
“Lu Ye, that wasn’t Sister Hua Ci, was she?” Yi Yi asked while inside the hut.
“She’s not Hua Ci.” Lu Ye shook his head.
Yi Yi still found it inconceivable. “Why do they look so similar, then?”
They weren’t just similar; they were practically identical. However, the Divine Healer was more mature than Hua Ci.
Not only were their faces identical, but their voices were also indistinguishable. That was inconceivable.
A glint flashed across Lu Ye’s eyes as he realised sothing. He then said softly, “Perhaps it’s not a coincidence…”
“What do you an?” Yi Yi asked puzzledly.
Lu Ye shook his head. Although he had so speculation, he was unable to find out the truth. If things were just like what he thought, that would be interesting.
In the entire martial world, he was only close to several people. They were Yi Yi, Hua Ci, the Second Senior Sister, the Fourth Senior Brother, the Sect Master, and Lady Yun.
Of these people, Lu Ye got to know Hua Ci when he was still a budding cultivator. Due to the differences between their cultivation techniques, they didn’t get to spend a lot of ti together. Nevertheless, they had gone through so life-and-death monts together. Even if they were separated for a long ti, they were still as close as ever.
There was no doubt that Hua Ci could make him put down his guard as he wholeheartedly trusted her.
Although the Divine Healer wasn’t Hua Ci, she had the sa face and voice.
Lu Ye couldn’t figure out many things for the ti being, but he didn’t think it was a coincidence that two identical people existed in two different worlds.
There wouldn’t be a logical explanation.
“Look after Liuli. I’ll pay for the dical expenses,” Lu Ye ordered and left the hut.
There was a long line of people outside the hut where the Divine Healer lived. Many people entered and left the place. Those who were waiting appeared hopeful, and those who left the hut looked grateful. It went to show that the Divine Healer was indeed an expert in dicine.
Usually, cultivators could pay for dical expenses with all sorts of things, depending on what they possessed. However, they would usually give the doctors Spirit Stones or Spirit Pills.
Nevertheless, the Divine Healer didn’t ask for those things from Lu Ye. She had made it clear that those from Heavenly Gully Cult wouldn’t let go of the matter, and they would probably co disturbing her gain. Therefore, Lu Ye had to pay for the dical expenses by making sure that those from the Cult wouldn’t cause any trouble again.
[Does she have so much confidence in ?]
Lu Ye was puzzled as to why the Divine Healer believed he, a Sixth-Order Master, could ward off a juggernaut like Heavenly Gully Cult.
Was it because of the attack he had used to chase Wu Xie away? That apparently wasn’t convincing.
It was unless the woman was aware of his capabilities. For example, he was well-versed in the Way of Wards, and his mastery far exceeded everyone in Soaring Dragon Boundary.
That only made the matter more bewildering.
Anyway, Lu Ye didn’t intend to turn her down.
After all, it wasn’t difficult for him to ward off the enemies.
He was the one who built the wards around Aliorate Valley, so it wouldn’t take him much effort to do the sa for the Valley of dicine. Moreover, his mastery of the Way of Wards had improved significantly.
After moving around the Valley of dicine and examining the terrain, he could feel there was very pure and ample Spiritual Qi beneath the valley.
That was where the ley line was located, and it made Lu Ye fall into his thoughts.
In the past, he only relied on his own power to build wards. However, a brilliant Ward Cultivator knew that he could make use of ley lines to build better foundations. When the wards and the ley lines were intertwined, the power would increase trendously.
As long as the ley lines were intact, the wards would be impenetrable.
Lu Ye didn’t do it in the past because he wasn’t powerful enough. Now, he was well-versed enough to give it a try.
If he could build a Grand Ward with the ley line of the Valley as the foundation, the wards here would be more powerful than those in Aliorate Valley.
Moreover, that would help improve his mastery of the Way of Wards as well. During the process of setting up the wards, he could verify what he had learned and digest the imnse rewards from Hundred Wards Tower.
