"Little Mingbai," Master Xieyan continued, "your fiancée, while not strictly ill, does have a slight physical issue."
"Senior, what's wrong with Huahua?" Li Mingbai immediately grew anxious.
"No need to be nervous, it's not a bad thing." Master Xieyan pointed at Huahua and explained, "In fact, her talent is very good, and she's quite suited for cultivation."
"Senior?" Huahua was stunned for a moment, then excitedly asked, "I can really cultivate? But a cultivator told me before that my constitution was terrible and I couldn't cultivate at all?"
"He's talking nonsense!" Master Xieyan became enraged, "He's incompetent and dares to spout rubbish, it's simply misleading himself and others!"
"Young lady, this is because you haven't received the correct guidance, preventing your talent from being unleashed," Master Xieyan explained. "Over time, it has affected your meridians, making it seem like you're unsuitable for cultivation."
"Senior…" Li Mingbai trembled, "Since you say so, is there… a way?"
"Naturally!" Master Xieyan said with full confidence, "As long as I give her a few acupuncture sessions, supplemented by the pills from the Second Elder, she'll recover in no time and then she can cultivate!"
"That's wonderful, Huahua!" Li Mingbai immediately hugged Huahua excitedly, "You can cultivate, you can cultivate!"
Li Mingbai had immense confidence in the medical and alchemical skills of these two great masters!
These two masters normally resided in the Imperial Palace's Pill Tower.
A while ago, when he went to the palace on business, he noticed that even the ordinary palace maids and eunuchs had become cultivators!
According to them, it was all thanks to these two masters!
With just acupuncture and pills, they gained cultivation potential!
And they were considered ordinary, just at the introductory stage.
Some palace maids and eunuchs even reached the Foundation Establishment stage in just one month!
Previously, the best prodigies in the Daliang Kingdom took at least several years to reach Foundation Establishment!
One could only say that the skills of these two masters were truly incredible!
According to those palace maids and eunuchs, everyone in the imperial palace had received help from these two masters.
Let alone royal family members, even the ministers had all become cultivators!
Normally, in addition to regular acupuncture, they received miraculous pills meticulously developed by the Second Elder!
Now, from the bottom to the top of the palace, everyone was immensely grateful to these two masters!
Judging from this information, Li Mingbai was certain that the professional skills of these two masters were absolutely top-notch!
Unfortunately, he wasn't lucky that time. The two masters were busy with something else and didn't have time to give him acupuncture and medicine.
After returning, he also mentioned it to True Person Ziyun, subtly suggesting whether it would be possible to invite these two masters to help.
After all, the Second Elder was considered one of their own in the Ziyun Sect, there was no reason to only benefit outsiders.
Who knew that after hearing this, True Person Ziyun's expression changed drastically, and he immediately warned him with his eyes to abandon this idea at once!
And that he should never mention it again!
Although Li Mingbai was full of doubts at the time, since the Sect Master had spoken, he didn't dare to disobey.
Now that his fiancée was not a member of the Ziyun Sect, his actions would not be in violation of the Sect Master's wishes.
"Wuwuwu, that's great!" Huahua immediately burst into tears.
If she couldn't cultivate, she would only be a mortal, and mortals lived for only a few decades.
Now, she could stay with Brother Mingbai for a lifetime.
"Let's not delay any longer, let's start now!" Master Xieyan rubbed his hands excitedly, "I get particularly excited when I think about helping others!"
"Then we'll trouble both seniors!" Li Mingbai quickly cupped his hands in thanks.
"No problem, no problem."
"It's what we should do."
Before long, the four of them arrived at the summit of Mùsè Peak, the residence of the Second Elder.
Although the Second Elder did not usually live in the sect, True Person Ziyun had specifically reserved a room for him.
No matter what kind of person the Second Elder had become, he was ultimately an elder of the Ziyun Sect.
One couldn't let an elder feel cold.
"Master?" The Second Elder's disciples were stunned when they saw him, then quickly bowed, "Greetings, Master!"
The Second Elder casually greeted them and then led Li Mingbai and the others back to his room.
Speaking of which, this was the Second Elder's first time in this residence after it was built.
Fortunately, the layout of the room was the same as the old site of the Ziyun Sect, so the Second Elder felt no discomfort.
After some preparation work, Master Xieyan spoke.
"I must say, you boy are very lucky!"
As he spoke, the Second Elder took out a handful of silver needles from his pants.
"Your little wife's talent is truly remarkable. After I cure her, she will definitely soar!"
"Then we'll rely on you two seniors!" Li Mingbai replied excitedly.
"No need to be polite!"
"It's what we should do!"
"Hehehe."
"Hehehehehe."
...
For the next few days, Ye Fan returned to his lazy state.
However, there was one thing that made him very happy!
He went fishing in Jingming Lake and actually caught something!
And it wasn't some random junk, it was a real fish!
The fisherman had redeemed himself!
Not long after Ye Fan left, True Person Ziyun, accompanied by the little demoness, quietly came to the edge of Jingming Lake.
Then, True Person Ziyun made a beckoning gesture, and a large fish flew out of the lake.
"Sect Leader sister, isn't it a bit wrong to deceive Ye Fan like this?" the little demoness asked with some concern.
"If you don't say, and I don't say, who will know?" True Person Ziyun chuckled, stroking the fish in her hand. "Little fish demon, remember to breed diligently so my precious disciple can catch more fish."
The fish in her hand opened and closed its mouth a few times.
If True Person Ziyun could understand fish language, she would know that this fish was currently cursing up a storm...
Time flew by, and the day arrived!
This day, the Ziyun Sect was exceptionally festive!
Wang Yang, wearing a bright red wedding robe, looked like a silly idiot with joy.
The bride's side's entourage was the female disciples of the Ziyun Sect, all of them menacingly blocking the door of the bride's room.
Wang Yang's groomsmen, on the other hand, rolled up their sleeves, looking ready to have a good fight with these female disciples!
Although the process was a bit rowdy, everyone had a sense of proportion, and there were no unpleasant incidents.
Finally, Wang Yang successfully married his beloved and accepted the blessings of his fellow disciples.
After Zi Yu was sent to the bridal chamber, the male disciples dragged Wang Yang into a drinking session, determined to not let him off until he was completely drunk!
"Senior Brother Wang Yang, you've snatched our sect's most beautiful junior sister, you absolutely have to drink today!"
"That's right, that's right, don't expect to walk out of here sober today!"
"Come, come, drink, drink!"
...
It wasn't until around ten o'clock at night that these disciples finally let Wang Yang go.
And he had certainly kept his promise – Wang Yang was carried back...
He was completely unconscious!
Since Wang Yang was drunk to this extent, the wedding night revelry naturally had to be skipped.
This left the disciples visibly unsatisfied, and they started drinking again amongst themselves.
Seeing Wang Yang enter the bridal chamber, True Person Ziyun and a few elders showed a hint of worry.
It turned out they had already known that Zi Yu was a flower demon!
