Xu Wendong said, "Is that Immortal Grass very important to Baoqing Hall?"
Geng Biao gave a nod and then replied, "Baoqing Hall is a property of the Shen Family. The Shen Family is a very low-key and mysterious family in the provincial city, with a heritage dating back hundreds of years."
"In terms of heritage, even my Geng Family cannot compare to the Shen Family."
"I had soone investigate the Shen Family’s situation last night, and it turns out to be a bit complicated. It is said that the Shen Family’s daughter is seriously ill and needs that Immortal Grass for treatnt."
Xu Wendong seed relieved, but a hint of relaxation appeared on his face. "If that’s all, I can certainly help the Shen Family with their dical issues."
The Immortal Grass was indeed a good dicine for diseases, but it wasn’t capable of curing all illnesses, unlike him. He truly could cure any illness.
An hour later.
The Rolls Royce stopped in front of a grand mansion, with a plaque above the entrance boldly displaying the characters for Shen Residence.
After getting out of the car,
Geng Biao knocked on the door. Once it opened, he said to the Shen Family’s servant, "Hello, kindly inform Elder Shen that Geng Biao, the heir of the Geng Family, is here to visit!"
"Younger Master Geng, please proceed to the guest parlor, and I will inform the Clan Leader imdiately!" The Geng Family was the leading family in the provincial city, and Geng Biao was its heir. Who would dare deny him this courtesy?
After moving to the guest parlor, the Shen Family servants prepared tea and pastries.
About five minutes later,
a hearty laughter resonated from outside, "Young man from the Geng Family, what brings you here?"
After the words faded, an elderly man dressed in a black mink coat walked in, his hair fully silver but looking remarkably vigorous.
Geng Biao imdiately stood up, "Good morning, Elder."
Elder Shen got straight to the point, "Speak up, what brings you to our Shen Family? If it’s for that Immortal Grass, then I must ask you not to bring it up!"
The relationship between the Shen and Geng Families was quite good. They had always supplied many dicinal ingredients to the Geng Family, including those Xu Wendong needed.
So when Geng Biao himself visited, Elder Shen had already guessed his intention.
Geng Biao looked quite awkward. It was said that the elderly were wise with experience, and the ancients did not deceive.
I hadn’t even spoken, yet your words have already shut my mouth.
He awkwardly chuckled and said, "Elder, I indeed ca here for that Immortal Grass. No, to be accurate, it is Mister Xu beside who is here for it."
Elder Shen looked curiously at Xu Wendong. For the heir of the Geng Family to address soone as Mister, this person’s background must be extraordinary!
Geng Biao made an introduction, "The Elder might not know, but Mister Xu is the Geng Family Patron. He possesses remarkable knowledge in the field of pharmacology!"
Elder Shen was deeply shocked internally.
He had not expected that the young man before him was the Geng Family Patron.
After all, soone regarded as a Patron by the Geng Family must certainly be exceptional.
Xu Wendong said, "Elder Shen, I heard you need the Immortal Grass to treat your granddaughter? How about we make a deal, I help cure your granddaughter’s illness, and then you sell that Immortal Grass to !"
Elder Shen forced a smile, "If Friend Xu can cure my granddaughter’s illness, even gifting you that Immortal Grass would be of no concern."
Geng Biao curiously asked, "Elder, what ails Yue’er?"
Elder Shen sighed helplessly and said, "That girl went traveling so ti ago and sohow acquired a cultivation technique from so obscure place."
"Then she practiced cultivation alone, but an accident occurred during her practice, leading to all her ridians breaking, making her a cripple now!"
Speaking of this issue, Elder Shen felt a headache, as it was known that without a master’s guidance, reckless cultivation in the eyes of normal people was bound to result in mishaps.
Of course, it was fortunate that his granddaughter’s ridians broke while practicing and she did not die on the spot.
Xu Wendong asked, "Elder Shen, would it be possible for to see Miss Shen?"
"Friend Xu, please follow !" Elder Shen made an inviting gesture. If he did not know that Xu Wendong was the Geng Family Patron, he naturally wouldn’t trust him.
But now, he was willing to try trusting Xu Wendong once.
A mont later.
The three arrived at a classical and elegant lady’s boudoir.
They saw a girl in her twenties quietly lying on the bed. Her features were delicate, and she had bright eyes, but her complexion looked sowhat wan.
Upon hearing footsteps, Shen Yue turned her head with difficulty, and upon seeing her grandfather, she managed a weak smile, "Grandpa, you don’t have to co see every day. I’m fine."
Elder Shen softly said, "Yue’er, I have brought a Divine Doctor who might be able to treat your injuries!"
"This is Friend Xu, who is an Honored Contributor of the Geng Family, adept in the art of healing." With that, he looked toward Xu Wendong.
Shen Yue also saw Xu Wendong.
However.
She had no faith in this young man at all.
Even though he was the Geng Family Patron, her injury was due to True Qi reversing and causing her ridians to break apart, unless a Daluo Golden Immortal was reincarnated.
Otherwise, no one could heal her injuries.
Xu Wendong stepped forward and sat on the stool beside the bed. After saying "excuse ," he grasped Shen Yue’s wrist and began discerning her pulse.
Her pulse was flickering and ca intermittently.
It was the first ti Xu Wendong had encountered this kind of pulse. Instantly, he injected a strand of True Qi into Shen Yue’s body, only to be shocked to discover that her ridians were severely blocked, making it impossible to penetrate deeper within her.
It was as if a road had been destroyed by a mountain flood or earthquake.
"You... you... you are a cultivator?" Shen Yue sensed the strand of True Qi injected into her body by Xu Wendong, involuntarily gasping, her beautiful eyes filled with astonishnt.
She could feel that Xu Wendong’s True Qi was very thick.
"Don’t speak!" Xu Wendong closed his eyes and concentrated on controlling the True Qi to travel within Shen Yue’s body. His face grew sowhat fatigued.
Upon knowing Xu Wendong was a cultivator, Elder Shen’s eyes sparkled with excitent.
After all, in many people’s minds, cultivators were capable of anything, possessing profound divine skills.
If Xu Wendong truly was a cultivator,
he certainly could heal his granddaughter’s injuries.
A mont later, Xu Wendong withdrew his hand and opened his eyes, saying, "Miss Shen’s condition isn’t one of broken ridians. The reason she is bedridden is that True Qi blocked her ridians. Once the ridians are unblocked, she will naturally recover."
Upon hearing that his granddaughter’s ridians weren’t broken, Elder Shen was overjoyed and imdiately asked, "Friend Xu, can you help unblock my granddaughter’s blocked ridians?"
Before Xu Wendong could speak, Shen Yue’s voice arose, "Grandpa, how can you ask such a thing? It’s just unblocking blocked ridians, what’s that compared to a big shot?"
Saying this, she gazed at Xu Wendong with adoration, eyes filled with reverence, "I kindly ask the great one to help this girl unblock her blocked ridians. If I recover, I will certainly rember your kindness."
Xu Wendong: "Your situation is indeed treatable, but the treatnt is sowhat unusual. I’m afraid Miss Shen won’t agree!"
Shen Yue couldn’t help but ask, "How will it be treated?"
Xu Wendong revealed a hint of embarrassnt on his face, "You and I will engage in Dual Cultivation!"
