CH 17

“You’re here.” After Pei Xuanqing entered the door, Lin Yi sat up straight and ‘gazed’ at him with expectation.

“Young Master Lin, what are you doing looking for patients? If you’re making trouble, please stop. Our Young Master is very busy and doesn’t have time to play with you.” Behind Pei Xuanqing, Pei Qi spoke with discontent. In his opinion, Lin Yi was purely looking for trouble. As a blind man who was neither a cultivator nor a pharmacist, how could he treat any illness?

“I looked for these patients because I would like to make a deal with Young Master Pei, and I know that you won’t believe what I say alone. Not only will you think I’m a swindler, but you will also think I am trying to scheme. Curing these patients is just showing my sincerity in advance.” Lin Yi said.

“What kind of deal?” Pei Qi asked, looking at Lin Yi in suspicion.

Lin Yi did not reply immediately and instead spoke to Pei Xuanqing, “Is Young Master Pei willing to give me this opportunity? I promise, this deal is very worthwhile for you.”

Pei Qi, Shui Su, and the others all looked at Pei Xuanqing.

Pei Xuanqing’s expression was undisturbed, already understanding Lin Yi’s intent. Watching as Lin Yi leaned slightly toward him while subconsciously showing a nervous look, a light flashed through his eyes, “Then let’s see what kind of sincerity Young Master Li can show first.”

Lin Yi was overjoyed, “Thank you very much.”

Then he asked Shui Su, “Shui Su, could I trouble you to let the patients in?”

Shui Su glanced at Pei Xuanqing, then affirmed and summoned the patients waiting outside the room to come in.

There were four patients altogether, one of whom knelt down on one knee toward Pei Xuanqing after entering the room. He seemed to want to say something, but Pei Xuanqing silently raised his hand to stop him.

Even Lin Yi felt that it was better that way. When the time came to take out a prescription, he could better rid himself of the suspicion of colluding with the patients.

“Then, I must bother them to cover their eyes.”

The people in the room were puzzled, and Pei Qi spoke up, “Why cover their eyes?”

“There are some things that cannot be seen by them. I also ask that you and Shui Su go out in a moment. I will only trust your Young Master by himself.”

Pei Qi frowned, disapproving of Lin Yi’s approach, but Pei Xuanqing had already agreed, “Alright.”

Pei Qi could only shut his mouth, sweep his eyes toward one of the patients, and exchange glances with that person. Then again, he thought Lin Yi was just an ordinary person who couldn’t cause any waves, so he retreated from the room with Shui Su.

Each of the four patients had their eyes covered by thick black cloths, each of their conditions being different. Some were just common ailments, while others were quite troublesome illnesses in contrast to where ordinary physicians were incapable of curing them. Some pharmacists even determined that getting treatment was hopeless.

Lin Yi couldn’t see the situation of these four people, but Pei Xuanqing could.

After Pei Qi and Shui Su left, Lin Yi unexpectedly faced Pei Xuanqing with a smile, “To be honest with Young Master Pei, I am blind, and it’s impossible for me to treat them myself. What I do is provide a treatment method.”

A method? Pei Xuanqing’s eyes swept across the four people, “Young Master Lin, please do tell.”

Lin Yi slightly shook his head. What he did was not just ‘telling.’

Without further explanation, he concentrated and sensed the Pharmacopoeia in his mind. Stretching out his hand, he touched the hand of the first patient.

Seeing his movements, the emotion in Pei Xuanqing’s eyes stirred.

The Pharmacopoeia in his mind trembled lightly, and a gray prescription appeared, inevitably consuming more spiritual power. Lin Yi quickly took out the prescription without ‘studying’ it. Suddenly, in reality, out of thin air, a gray piece of paper appeared in his hand with words recorded on it.

This was the first time that Lin Yi successfully brought the prescription to reality, and his hand holding the prescription couldn’t help but tremble lightly, filled with joy.

When Pei Xuanqing saw this scene, his expression immediately became serious, and he sat up straight.

“Pei Qi! Barrier!”

Outside, Pei Qi didn’t know what had happened, but upon hearing the command, he immediately opened a domain barrier belonging to the Spiritual General Realm and covered the entire house.

Lin Yi’s joyful mood was met with an interruption, and, at a loss, he turned his head to ‘look’ at Pei Xuanqing.

“Continue.” Pei Xuanqing spoke solemnly.

Lin Yi breathed a sigh of relief, put the prescription in his hand on the table, withdrew it, and said to the four patients, “Next.”

Three patients in a row were all treated with a gray prescription, and their illnesses, regardless of difficulty, were all common to ordinary people. As far as the Pharmacopoeia was concerned, they were completely manageable, and there was no situation where Lin Yi suffered from backlash like the last time.

He had already accumulated three prescriptions in his hand.

Pei Xuanqing pushed the wheelchair to his side, picked up the three prescriptions, and looked at them with a somber expression.

Influenced by Pei Xuanqing, the room was hushed. Not only did the patients not dare to open their mouths to speak, but even Lin Yi felt the pressure from Pei Xuanqing’s aura. He knew Pei Xuanqing was reading the prescriptions, but Pei Xuanqing never spoke, and Lin Yi didn’t know what he was thinking. Obviously, he had a significant grasp over the matter, but now his mood became somewhat apprehensive.

“Continue.” Seeing that he stopped, Pei Xuanqing only said one more sentence.

Lin Yi stretched out his hand to the fourth person, “Come here.”

The person walked over, and the moment Lin Yi touched his hand, it felt slightly different. This person’s hand was younger and more powerful than the first three people’s hands, and he gave Lin Yi a different feeling.

This person was also the one who knelt down on one knee and saluted Pei Xuanqing just now.

This person’s illness was crucial, perhaps more important than the previous three.

Lin Yi became serious, concentrated his mind again, and communicated with Pharmacopoeia……

Suddenly, the Pharmacopoeia trembled violently, and a familiar sense of crisis arrived, instinctively making Lin Yi’s scalp feel numb.

Not good!

At that moment, he subconsciously wanted to let go and throw away the hand of the patient in front of him, but in the end, he remembered his goal, grit his teeth, and endured.

In not but a moment, the Pharmacopoeia in his mind flourished with splendor, and a prescription of light blue radiance appeared above the Pharmacopoeia.

At the sight of the blue prescription, Lin Yi couldn’t help but curse——

Damn it, what was wrong with this person? How could it be a blue prescription!?

“Pu!“

Lin Yi didn’t have time to think much, let alone take a look at the prescription. With his last trace of strength, he used it to take out the prescription. As soon as he released the man’s hand, his complexion suddenly turned white, and he opened his mouth to cough up a mouthful of blood. Scarlet blood sprayed onto the patient’s clothes.

“Lin Yi!”

The sudden change made Pei Xuanqing’s face change. He put down the prescription in his hand and stretched over to help Lin Yi, who was leaning crookedly, “Someone!”

Pei Qi and Shui Su, who were outside, immediately entered the house, were stunned when they saw this scene and rushed over to support Lin Yi.

“Shui Su, take these four people out. No one is allowed to leave without my command. Call Qing Feng to go to my room and bring a Nascent Nourishment Pill.” Pei Xuanqing said with a grave expression.

“Understood.”

“Cough, cough, cough.“

Lin Yi weakly leaned back against Pei Xuanqing with a burning pain in his throat and a sweet and fishy taste all over his mouth. He felt nauseous, his internal energy and blood surging, his internal organs throbbing in pain, and his head and dantian even more painful, causing his eyes to glow with gold. The spiritual power accumulated in his body with great difficulty was drained empty, and the Pharmacopoeia in his mind dimmed again.

This familiar pain of backlash was the same as last time.

Seeing his pained appearance, Pei Xuanqing wrinkled his brow slightly.

Qing Feng quickly brought the Nascent Nourishment Pill over, and Pei Xuanqing pressed it to Lin Yi’s mouth, “Eat it.”

Lin Yi smelled the familiar scent and knew it was the pill Patriarch Lin had given him last time——the Nascent Nourishment Pill. He opened his mouth and swallowed the pill. The gentle power of the pill quickly healed his internal organs, and the pain in his dantian gradually came to a stop, but the Pharmacopoeia was still dim and unaffected.

Regardless, he was finally able to calm his breathing.

“The prescription just now….”

“Don’t talk yet.”

Pei Xuanqing checked Lin Yi’s pulse, and after confirming that his pulse was calming down, he said, “The prescription is here.”

Lin Yi heaved a sigh of relief and spoke up once more to ask, “That person just now, his dantian was crippled?”

Not only was that person’s dantian crippled, but all of his meridians were also almost just as equally crippled, looking just like a person who could not live for a few more years!

Upon hearing his question, Pei Xuanqing’s gaze flickered, and he said, “That’s right. When he formed a contract with the spiritual being he was interested in, he encountered an attack and suffered backlash. At the same time, he was hit in the dantian by an opponent’s palm, and his dantian was crippled. With his dantian crippled, his primordial soul was also severely damaged, and he can no longer perceive the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The pharmacists in the Pharmacists Hall of Woyun City also believed that he could no longer embark on the path of cultivation and would only live for three years.”

As expected.

Lin Yi’s expression shook at the thought, “Then try the prescription I gave you.”

As long as the prescription proved to be useful, there was no need to worry about Pei Xuanqing disagreeing with the deal.

Hearing this, the others were very puzzled and didn’t understand what was going on, what the prescription was, or why Lin Yi suddenly sustained injuries.

Pei Xuanqing had already looked at the blue prescription and looked deeply at Lin Yi next to him. After a lapse of time, he asked, “What deal did you want to make with me?”

Lin Yi had a secret on him, and Pei Xuanqing had already guessed what deal Lin Yi wanted to make with him.

Sure enough, as soon as Lin Yi heard the play, his pale face immediately brightened. He ‘looked’ at Pei Xuanqing and said word-for-word, “Just like them, I can also help you. I help treat your legs, and you help me cure my eyes.”

The room was silent in an instant.

“Young Master Lin, what are you talking about!? Don’t you know our Young Master is not someone you can joke about!?” Pei Qi was shocked and angry.

“Wu…” Lin Yi had just been injured, and when he was suppressed by Pei Qi’s outgoing aura, he immediately groaned, his face turning pale.

“Pei Qi.” Pei Xuanqing looked at Pei Qi with disapproval.

Pei Qi hurriedly retracted his aura, not daring to make any further moves.

Lin Yi ignored Pei Qi and ‘looked’ at Pei Xuanqing, waiting for his reply.

It was already at this point. If Pei Xuanqing didn’t agree, all the trouble he suffered just now would be in vain!
