"Starfall Meteor is a must-have item for Canglong Academy, why don't you want it?" Lu Fan asked directly.
"As you just said, it's a must-have item for Canglong Academy!"
Long Yi chuckled softly, "It has nothing to do with me. Besides, it's just an ordinary stone. What use do I have for it?"
"It seems I've wronged you!"
Lu Fan smiled lightly, "I hope you won't speak of what happened today!"
"Mr. Lu, rest assured. Since you've instructed me, I won't say a word." Long Yi nodded.
The next morning, Lu Fan and his group set off for Donghai City. The other experts from Qingyun Sect also returned to their outposts in the outer-domain battlefield.
The victory celebration had concluded. Although Cangqiong Kingdom had not attacked, they had to remain vigilant. Any slight misstep could put the entire Long Kingdom in peril.
In Donghai City, several figures stood within the Yang family's courtyard.
"Old Mr. Han, please tell me the truth. What's wrong with the old madam's illness!" Yang Shihai said, "Is she nearing her end?"
"Master Yang, I am not speaking nonsense. Madam Yang's condition has worsened. Even if Hua Tuo were alive, no one could cure her!"
Old Mr. Han said frankly, "Let her eat whatever she wants. At least she won't leave with regrets!"
"What kind of talk is that? We invited you to treat the patient, not to say such things!" Yang Shiyun said coldly, "What stage has my grandmother's illness reached?"
"Miss Yang, I have done my best!" Old Mr. Han said helplessly, "The Yang family will likely have to find someone else."
"Old Mr. Han's medical skills are unparalleled. If even you have no solution, who else can cure the old madam's illness!" Yang Shihai frowned.
"If that's the case, then we can only prepare for the funeral!" Old Mr. Han sighed helplessly, "I am powerless to help!"
Yang Shihai was filled with panic. He had never imagined things would turn out this way. The old madam had lived a difficult life, and now in her old age, she had fallen gravely ill.
"Dad, I believe there are other ways!"
Yang Shiyun spoke up, "We must not give up."
"All the renowned physicians in Donghai City have been consulted, yet none can cure the old madam's illness!" Yang Shihai said directly, "The old madam's time is likely running out!"
"I will personally offer a hefty reward!" Yang Shiyun stated, "Whoever cures my grandmother's illness will receive a million in gold!"
"It's useless. I've already offered rewards, but no one has responded!"
Yang Shihai shook his head, "There's no need for you to waste your energy. Spend more time with Grandma and accompany her through the final stage of her life!"
"I will never believe that!"
Yang Shiyun's expression was solemn. She then turned to leave, her eyes filled with determination. She believed there must be someone else who could help.
Watching Yang Shiyun depart, Yang Shihai felt a sense of helplessness. The old madam's illness was advanced, and all he could do now was to stay by her side, unable to offer any real assistance.
Meanwhile, in a corner of Donghai City, Lu Fan and his companions stood, seemingly waiting for something.
"Mr. Lu, we've been waiting for so long without any concrete news. Should I go personally?" Long Yi asked.
"I think it's best not to!"
Lu Fan shook his head, "Don't you forget, you are a delicate young lady. How can you personally handle such matters!"
Long Yi stood stunned, feeling a sense of helplessness. Her persona was indeed that of a delicate girl, and acting too assertively would be quite inappropriate.
"I'm just going to take a look. Even if I'm delicate, it shouldn't be a big deal, right!"
Long Yi said frankly, feeling a surge of dissatisfaction.
With her words, Lu Fan shrugged, not paying much attention.
However, at that moment, Gu Wen walked over, "I've inquired. The Yang family Master is looking for is in a villa not far ahead."
"Not far ahead?"
Lu Fan's face lit up with joy, "Then let's go now. After so many years, I wonder how my maternal grandmother is doing, and my eldest uncle..."
"However, I just received news that the Yang family's old madam is ill, and it's a terminal illness."
Gu Wen quickly said, "The Yang family is offering a reward of one million to find a skilled physician. She is now on her last breath."
"There's such a thing!"
Lu Fan's expression changed. He had just arrived in the southeastern city and hadn't expected to encounter this. He also hadn't expected his maternal grandmother to be in mortal danger.
Lu Fan couldn't afford to wait any longer and headed straight for the Yang family villa. He had just arrived in the southeastern city and hadn't even had a hot meal, but Lu Fan didn't care about these things.
After so many years, he was finally able to see his close relatives, and he was naturally excited. Moreover, his close relative was critically ill, so Lu Fan dared not delay.
Upon entering the villa, Lu Fan barged in directly. However, he was stopped by several men, "Who are you? This is the Yang family residence!"
"I am a divine doctor!" Lu Fan said with a solemn expression, "I can cure the old madam's illness!"
Lu Fan's words became urgent. He knew very well that this was not the time for family reunions. If anything happened to the old madam, Lu Fan would be held responsible.
"Is that true?"
The men were somewhat skeptical. Lu Fan looked too young to be a divine doctor.
"Of course, it's true!"
Lu Fan said directly, "If we delay any further, the old madam's condition will worsen, and it will be even more troublesome!"
"What's going on?"
At that moment, a graceful figure approached, casting her gaze upon Lu Fan and his companions.
"Miss Shiyun, he claims to be a divine doctor and says he has a way to cure the old madam's illness!" one of the men said.
Yang Shiyun looked at Lu Fan, "Can you really cure my grandmother's illness?"
"You are Yang Shiyun?"
Lu Fan was slightly surprised and looked at the woman before him.
He knew very well how Yang Shiyun looked when they played together as children. He hadn't expected her to grow up to be so elegant and graceful.
"How do you know my name?" Yang Shiyun asked, surprised.
"There's no time to explain now. I need to see the old madam's condition!" Lu Fan said. He didn't want to explain too much, as lives were at stake.
Yang Shiyun was somewhat suspicious. Although she didn't fully believe Lu Fan, she couldn't say much. After all, anyone who came to treat her must have some skills, otherwise, they wouldn't dare to come so casually. Su Dan Novel Network
Upon entering the room, Yang Shihai suddenly blocked the door, "What is going on?"
"He says he has a way!" Yang Shiyun said, "We're trying to save a dying horse as if it were alive. Perhaps there's still a glimmer of hope!"
"It's too late!" Yang Shihai's expression was cold, "The old madam has already passed away!"
With these words, Yang Shiyun trembled slightly. This was the news she least wanted to hear, but now there was nothing she could do. She knew that once a person passed away, they could never return, not even the Great Immortal could do anything.
