"Yes, she is indeed related to Changle Immortal Island, and this ti she ca to seeking help."
Princess Emma Ya Cloud answered.
"I don’t understand this. What does the Changle Flower have to do with her seeking help? Could it be that she is willing to use the Changle Flower as a reward? But the problem is, that kind of flower shouldn’t an much to you, right?"
Ling Xiao asked curiously.
"That’s not it."
Yun Ya explained: "Here’s the thing, Fengming Piaoxue had an elder in Changle Immortal Island who was seriously injured in a battle with an expert from Blackwater Immortal Island. His injury is very strange. Many pharmacists have been consulted, but none have been able to heal it.
Every ti it rains, he feels unbearable pain all over his body, making life worse than death. Even a powerful expert in the Yin-Yang Realm cannot withstand it.
What I an is, Young Master Ling, since you are highly skilled in dicine, why not give it a try? If you can save his life, then what is the Changle Flower in comparison? Even the tens of thousands of dicinal herbs I promised you before would absolutely be no problem."
"You’re not going to tell that the expert you were looking for before was actually this elder from Fengming Piaoxue, are you?"
Ling Xiao chuckled bitterly.
"It really is, it’s just that I didn’t know it before. If it wasn’t for Fengming Piaoxue coming to find this ti, I would still be kept in the dark."
Yun Ya explained.
"So that’s how it is. But Princess Yun Ya, have you thought about this—although I am proficient in dicine, I am only an Advanced Yellow Grade Pharmacist after all. I believe there should be Top-ranked Yellow Grade and even Yellow Grade Super Pharmacists in Changle Immortal Island, right? Couldn’t they heal that elder’s condition?"
Ling Xiao asked.
"They really couldn’t solve it; they are completely helpless because the biggest trouble with this injury is the inability to find the cause. If you have powerful analytic abilities and find the actual cause, treating it would be much easier."
Yun Ya explained.
"So that’s why you ca to ?"
Ling Xiao thought to himself, ’Princess Yun Ya, you really think highly of . Although I am better than the average pharmacist, if even Yellow Grade Super Pharmacists can’t solve the problem, it’s unlikely I will be able to.’
"Yes, so I ca to find Young Master Ling. This is also an opportunity for you. What doesn’t Changle Immortal Island have? They ca to Cri City, hoping to see if any impressive pharmacists stand out in this alchemy conference, just taking a chance."
Princess Emma Ya Cloud nodded and said: "This elder holds an extraordinary position on Changle Immortal Island, so they are willing to pay any price for him, including the Changle Flower!
You might even take the opportunity to demand so good things, that wouldn’t be a problem."
"I understand now. Fengming Piaoxue sought you out probably because you have a wide network of connections, so they hoped you could help find a capable pharmacist."
Ling Xiao suddenly realized.
"There’s more than that."
Yun Ya smiled: "Young Master Ling, don’t forget that when you were in the capital of the Phoenix God Empire, everyone knew I was acquainted with a pharmacist who could produce perfect elixirs, which is why Fengming Piaoxue ca to find ."
"Heh, in that case, I might as well give it a try, but I can’t guarantee success."
Ling Xiao, for the sake of Moon Lady, must obtain the Changle Flower, as for other treasures, he didn’t care much about them.
"Just trying won’t be enough, it would be best if you could succeed, otherwise you should simply disguise yourself. This way, even if you fail, you won’t end up making enemies with Changle Immortal Island."
Yun Ya cautioned: "Changle Immortal Island is no ordinary place. Its people are high and mighty, believing they control everything under heaven, and thus have very bad temperants. If you make even a small mistake, they might kill you on the spot."
"Disguise myself? Why should I disguise myself? I’m going there openly to treat and save people, not to steal. If that old man doesn’t trust , then I simply won’t treat him."
Ling Xiao waved his hand.
He didn’t believe the experts of Changle Immortal Island would be such spineless and visionless people.
Even if Fengming Piaoxue isn’t willing to let him treat the elder, the elder himself surely would be.
Moreover, his healing not only serves the purpose of acquiring Changle Flowers but also to owe the elders of Changle Immortal Island a massive favor.
If he disguises himself, then what’s the point?
"Do you really have confidence?"
Yun Ya asked with so concern.
"Don’t worry, I am indeed confident."
Ling Xiao nodded and said.
His confidence stemd not only from Mountain and River Martial Soul but also due to the presence of Yuan Venerate.
If even Yuan Venerate cannot heal the elder of the Changle Immortal Island, then probably no alchemist in this world could.
Ling Xiao acts decisively and swiftly.
Since he has decided to seek Fengming Piaoxue, there is nothing to hesitate about.
"Fengming Piaoxue and that elder are currently residing in the Black Python Clan’s estate in Cri City. Be very careful after you go there; this is my letter of recomndation."
Yun Ya handed over the letter of recomndation to Ling Xiao, reminding him: "That place is literally a dragon’s den for you, be very careful. If it really doesn’t work out, just escape, I know your Lightweight Body Technique is excellent."
Ling Xiao took the recomndation letter and smiled.
"Thank you for your concern, Princess Yun Ya. I understand."
After leaving Princess Yun Ya’s residence, Ling Xiao headed to the Black Python Clan’s headquarter according to the map given by Yun Ya.
Actually, it was very easy to locate.
In the entirety of Cri City, other than Black Wind Building, this is the most luxurious and tallest building.
Ling Xiao didn’t know, but after his departure, Moon Lady and Leng i quietly followed him, though he did not notice them.
These two probably intend to protect him secretly.
When Ling Xiao arrived outside the gate of the Black Python Clan’s mansion, he unexpectedly found that many alchemists had already gathered here.
Among them were Yellow Rank Senior Pharmacists, Yellow Rank Interdiate Pharmacists, and even Top-ranked Yellow Grade and Yellow Grade Super Pharmacists.
Ling Xiao guessed these must be the formidable pharmacists from the Five Immortal Islands.
They all wore their alchemist badges on their chest, clearly showcasing their alchemist rank.
After all, for an alchemist, rank is a symbol of status and identity.
Ling Xiao didn’t have this habit.
He does not like to flaunt that he is a Yellow Rank Senior Pharmacist unless necessary.
On the street in front of the Black Python Clan’s gate, people were coming and going, and all of them were martial artists with considerable strength.
However, the gaze these people cast towards the pharmacists was full of respect and admiration.
Even though these pharmacists might not have as high a cultivation level as them, they are equally deserving of respect.
Because in the Mysterious World, being an alchemist is a magical and esteed profession, without a doubt.
Even the guards at the entrance of the Black Python Clan, who are usually fierce and nacing, showed utmost respect when facing these alchemists, daring not to show the slightest negligence, let alone provoke them.
Provoking these people would be no different than stirring up a hornet’s nest.
