"Jingbai! Your legs can move!"
Yun Tiancheng saw Yun Jingbai's small face showing a pained expression, his face filled with joy. "Your lower body has regained sensation!"
Yun Jingbai's body was immersed in the medicinal bath, her private parts concealed by the bath, preventing any indecent exposure.
Upon hearing Yun Tiancheng's words, Yun Jingbai turned her head and discovered that her right leg had actually bent and lifted. Her face lit up with joy. "It can really be cured!"
Chen Jiuyang frowned. "Prefect Yun, please refrain from making loud noises and disturbing my treatment."
Treating Yun Jingbai required him to use the pure Yang true qi within his body. He had to simultaneously use the pure Yang true qi and suppress the cold qi within him, requiring him to multitask. This placed a considerable burden on him. If he couldn't suppress the internal cold qi, he might faint and end up consuming Yun Jingbai on the spot.
If that happened, Yun Tiancheng would likely want to kill him on the spot.
"Alright, alright, it was my recklessness." Yun Tiancheng, seeing that the treatment was effective, his face was full of joy. He apologized to Chen Jiuyang and quickly withdrew from the room.
Immediately after, Yun Jingbai saw a trickle of black, foul-smelling blood flowing from her toes. Her delicate face turned pale, and that intense pain surged into her brain again, causing her delicate body to tremble slightly.
"Sizzle!"
The blood forced out of Yun Jingbai's body dripped onto the medicinal bath, emitting a corrosive sizzling sound. This bath contained dozens of potent poisons. An ordinary person would have been reduced to mere bones by such poison.
As the potent poison was expelled, Yun Jingbai's body began to absorb the medicinal power from the bath. Yun Jingbai felt a warmth spreading through her body, but simultaneously, it was painful. This sensation was both comforting and agonizing, a torment.
After another half hour, Chen Jiuyang, covered in sweat, stopped the treatment. He walked out of the room and informed Yun Tiancheng, "Prefect Yun, Miss Yun's lower body has regained sensation and she can move, but only to walk with the aid of crutches. She cannot engage in strenuous activities like running. Furthermore, she may experience incontinence recently, so she needs to be well cared for. She can only get out of the medicinal bath in three hours."
Yun Tiancheng remembered Chen Jiuyang's instructions and asked, "Divine Doctor Chen, I would like to ask what exactly caused Jingbai's paralysis."
Chen Jiuyang truthfully replied, "Miss Yun was poisoned by a potent toxin, which caused her paralysis. I have expelled all the toxins from her legs to her feet. However, her body is rather weak. You can buy some good medicinal ingredients that nourish qi and blood for her to consume."
"I understand." Yun Tiancheng clasped Chen Jiuyang's hand gratefully. "Thank you so much, Divine Doctor Chen."
Chen Jiuyang chuckled. "She is not fully healed yet. I will come to treat her every three days. It will take about half a month to a month for Miss Yun to fully recover as before."
Yun Tiancheng was ecstatic. "Excellent, excellent! I don't know how to repay Divine Doctor Chen."
He had already reviewed Chen Jiuyang's information. Chen Jiuyang was on very close terms with Yao Zixuan and was not lacking in money. Moreover, Chen Jiuyang himself was a genius grandmaster and had apprenticed under Marquis Feng Han. Although he was the Prefect of Fengcheng, he truly did not know how to repay Chen Jiuyang.
Chen Jiuyang pondered. "If it is possible, I would like to request Prefect Yun to provide me with detailed information about the Fengzhui Marquis's estate."
Yun Tiancheng naturally knew about the animosity between Chen Jiuyang and Zhong Zhuwu. He chuckled. "Doctor Chen, please rest for a moment. I need to attend to some official duties."
Earth realm Grandmasters had broken through the limits of ordinary people and could live up to one hundred and twenty years. Zhong Zhuwu was already over ninety years old and was at the fifth layer of the Earth realm, at the same cultivation level as Marquis Feng Han. Strictly speaking, he no longer had the qualification to aspire to the Heaven realm.
A royal decree was not something that could be submitted simply by wishing; it required an assessment. Only when one was truly qualified to aspire to the Heaven realm would the Six Doors accept the royal decree.
Chen Jiuyang wanted to know where Zhong Zhuwu got the confidence to believe he could aspire to the Heaven realm.
Seeing Chen Jiuyang covered in sweat, Yao Zixuan also knew he was very tired and helped him to sit down and rest.
After resting for half an hour, Chen Jiuyang and Yao Zixuan got up to bid farewell and left the Prefect's mansion. Before leaving, a middle-aged beautiful woman wearing gold-rimmed glasses found Chen Jiuyang. "Doctor Chen, this is something my husband asked me to give you."
One was a silver token, allowing free entry and exit to the Prefect's mansion, convenient for Chen Jiuyang to visit and treat Yun Jingbai next time. The other was a black trash bag.
"Since Doctor Chen is leaving, please help me dispose of this trash."
As soon as Chen Jiuyang took the trash bag, he knew it contained a stack of documents. He chuckled. "No problem, then I'll see you next time."
Leaving the Fengcheng Prefect's mansion, Yao Zixuan drove Chen Jiuyang away, heading towards Hu Qijie's house. Today, they were going to check on the progress of the Black Jade Bone-Setting Paste.
On the way, Chen Jiuyang opened the black trash bag. Inside was detailed information about the Zhong family of Fengzhui Marquis.
Zhong Zhuwu had seven wives and thirteen concubines, a total of twenty women.
Zhong Zhuwu had suffered a lower limb injury when he was young, and his sexual function was not very good. Zhong Ali was his only son, and Wang Tian was Zhong Zhuwu's only male descendant.
Chen Jiuyang sneered. No wonder he was so protective of those beasts like Wang Tian; Wang Tian was his only blood descendant.
The Fengzhui Marquis's main industry was antiques. The Six Doors investigation revealed that he had allegedly healed his injuries through a secret antique treasure, which allowed him to forcefully break through his cultivation.
Recently, the Fengzhui Marquis had been extensively acquiring various medicinal ingredients and elixirs to replenish qi and blood, not hesitating to sell off various assets, making thorough preparations to ascend to the Heaven realm.
A cold glint flashed in Chen Jiuyang's eyes. So that was it.
A thought flashed through his mind, and he then sneered.
A Marquis Grandmaster should be a protector of the common people, but you, Fengzhui Marquis, favor your relatives and bully others. Such a marquis's estate should disappear sooner rather than later.
Yao Zixuan was driving when someone suddenly blocked their path.
A Rolls-Royce was parked across their path. The car door opened, and Xue Baogui and an old man with white hair walked out.
Upon seeing this, Chen Jiuyang got out of the car and approached the two.
Xue Baogui cupped his fists and bowed. "Greetings, Divine Doctor Chen!"
Chen Jiuyang said indifferently, "What is it?"
Xue Baogui said, "This is an old friend of my father's, Grandmaster Bahua."
The white-haired old man looked somewhat listless. He smiled at Chen Jiuyang and said, "Indeed, a hero emerges from youth. Little Divine Doctor Chen can heal Xue Lianji's old injuries, and I also wish for little Divine Doctor Chen to examine my injuries and see if there is any hope for recovery."
Chen Jiuyang stared at Grandmaster Bahua and said indifferently, "You have a very good relationship with the Fenglian Marquis. There were a total of nine Pure Yang Qi Replenishing Pills that I left for him, and you have consumed three of them."
Grandmaster Bahua nodded. "Little Divine Doctor Chen indeed has sharp eyes. If it weren't for consuming the Pure Yang Qi Replenishing Pills, this old man wouldn't even have the strength to get out of bed."
Chen Jiuyang: "Your illness can be treated, but I have one condition."
"Please state it. As long as this old man can fulfill it, I will certainly comply." Grandmaster Bahua cupped his hands.
"I want you and the Fenglian Marquis's estate to intercept the medicinal resources of the Fengzhui Marquis."
Chen Jiuyang sneered inwardly. You, Fengzhui Marquis, want to successfully break through to become a King, how can I let you have your way!
