Po Tian Ying's speed was astonishing, like a flash of lightning streaking across the sky, too swift for those on the ground to perceive.
Cheng Xiaofan and Bai Yiling sat steadily on Po Tian Ying's back, the wind rushing past them, wisps of white clouds brushing by, giving them a sense of freedom and exhilaration.
In less than an hour, Po Tian Ying had carried the two of them over the city of Hai Cheng.
Adjacent to Hai Cheng lay the vast, boundless ocean. From their vantage point on Po Tian Ying, looking down, the layers of waves and the seagulls flying close to the water's surface presented a unique and captivating vista.
Po Tian Ying then released a layer of mist from its body.
This mist served to render them invisible; others could not see Po Tian Ying, Cheng Xiaofan, or Bai Yiling, while the trio could see everything outside through the mist.
Po Tian Ying circled the skies of Hai Cheng three times.
"Po Tian Ying, land here!"
Cheng Xiaofan pointed to a park within the city and gave his command.
"Jee—"
Upon receiving the instruction, Po Tian Ying let out a sharp cry and began its descent.
It landed in a densely wooded area within the park.
The park, with its shaded trees, natural hills, and an artificial lake stocked with fish, offered Po Tian Ying ample opportunities to find food.
Furthermore, the proximity of the ocean meant that Po Tian Ying would face virtually no competition when hunting for sustenance at sea.
"Po Tian Ying,"
Cheng Xiaofan rewarded it with a few more energy pills and instructed, "For the next few days, stay active in this vicinity. If I need you, we can communicate telepathically. Don't fly too far, understand!"
"Jee—"
Master, I understand.
For the next few days, I will remain in this area, and if anything arises, I will immediately fly to your side upon sensing it.
Hearing this, Cheng Xiaofan nodded.
Unlike Tao Qi Bao, Po Tian Ying was not mischievous, and Cheng Xiaofan trusted it completely.
Cheng Xiaofan and Bai Yiling emerged from the woods and soon found themselves at the park's entrance.
The park was bustling with visitors, adults and children alike, a steady stream of people. Cheng Xiaofan then remembered it was the weekend, a rare opportunity for citizens to bring their families out for leisure.
"Mr. Xianyu, I have arrived in Hai Cheng and am currently at the entrance of Jinghu Park!" Cheng Xiaofan took out his phone, dialed Xianyu He, and said.
When Xianyu He received Cheng Xiaofan's call, he thought he was dreaming.
He had never imagined that Cheng Xiaofan would arrive in Hai Cheng so quickly.
"Xiaofan, what a coincidence! I live right near Jinghu Park, and that park was actually developed by me!"
Xianyu He was incredibly excited. "Please wait a moment, my car will be here shortly!"
Less than ten minutes after hanging up, a stretched Maybach pulled up and stopped before Cheng Xiaofan and Bai Yiling.
The door opened, and Xianyu He emerged from the car.
Two bodyguards also alighted.
"Xiaofan, Miss Bai, I am truly thrilled to see you arrive in Hai Cheng!" Xianyu He bustled forward, his eyes crinkling into slits as he smiled.
Cheng Xiaofan and Bai Yiling got into the car.
As Xianyu He had mentioned, his residence was located in the vicinity of Jinghu Park.
It was a villa estate covering over three hundred mu, adorned with willows brushing the ground and clusters of blooming flowers. A stream flowed gently through artificially constructed channels, creating a serene ambiance.
Upon entering the main villa, Xianyu He immediately instructed someone to serve tea.
"Mr. Xianyu, there's no rush. Please take me to see Miss Xianyu Yan first!" Cheng Xiaofan's eagerness to arrive early was driven by his desire to treat Xianyu He's daughter as soon as possible.
He understood why Xianyu He appeared so excited upon seeing him; it was all for his beloved daughter, Xianyu Yan.
Xianyu He hoped that the day Cheng Xiaofan arrived would also be the day his daughter awoke.
Upon hearing this, Xianyu He hesitated slightly and said, "Xiaofan, you and Miss Bai have traveled a long distance to reach Hai Cheng. Perhaps you should rest for a while!"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled faintly and replied, "Mr. Xianyu, please don't be so polite. Once I have treated Miss Xianyu Yan, we can sit down for tea!"
His words caused some members of the Xianyu family to roll their eyes.
This young man seemed unreliable. Before even seeing Xianyu Yan, he dared to boast that he would treat her illness before having tea. Who gave him such confidence?
In their experience, divine doctors were typically around seventy or eighty years old, dressed in traditional Chinese attire, with youthful complexions and long, flowing white beards, possessing an air of immense authority and speaking in ways incomprehensible to ordinary people.
Yet, Cheng Xiaofan was so young, with an innocent demeanor, clearly someone who had not experienced much of the world.
His speech was not mysterious, and his heart seemed unguarded.
His eyes were too bright.
Normally, a divine doctor would squint when observing someone, or at least wear a pair of wide-brimmed sunglasses to exude an aura of mystery and coolness.
However, what truly stunned those present was Bai Yiling, who stood beside Cheng Xiaofan. She was exceedingly beautiful.
Her beauty was so profound that it evoked images of a celestial maiden from the heavens, untouched by mortal affairs.
Some modern charlatans were indeed resourceful, thinking of bringing a beautiful woman along to bolster their image.
Yet, out of respect for the patriarch, Xianyu He, who was present, they dared not voice their doubts about Cheng Xiaofan.
Within this family, Xianyu He held absolute authority; no one dared to object to his decisions.
Moreover, Cheng Xiaofan was someone the master of the Xianyu family had personally invited.
However, in everyone's perception, the patriarch was usually extremely discerning. How could he have been so easily deceived this time, inviting such a street-corner swindler into their home?
Unbeknownst to them, after hearing Cheng Xiaofan's words, Xianyu He was so moved that his eyes reddened, and he choked out, "Xiaofan, thank you, thank you so much!"
Xianyu He led the way, with Cheng Xiaofan, Bai Yiling, and the others following closely behind.
Reaching the second floor of the villa, Xianyu He opened the door to a bedroom and said, "Xiaofan, my daughter is in this bedroom. Please, come in!"
Cheng Xiaofan entered and his gaze immediately fell upon Xianyu Yan.
As he had expected, Xianyu Yan bore a striking resemblance to her sister, Xianyu Jie, as if they were carved from the same mold.
Her eyes and face shape were exquisitely coordinated, undeniably the features of a peerless beauty.
However, the Xianyu Yan lying before Cheng Xiaofan was in a vegetative state. Although her breathing was steady, her vital signs were very weak.
Another year in this condition, and her life functions might gradually fade away.
"Xiaofan, do you think my daughter can still be saved?" Xianyu He asked anxiously.
Cheng Xiaofan smiled faintly and said, "In the hands of others, she is indeed beyond saving. But with me here, she can be awakened in minutes!"
Xianyu He's eyes widened with joy. "Xiaofan, are you telling the truth?"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled. "Mr. Xianyu, based on what you just said, do you lack confidence in me?"
"No, no, no,"
Xianyu He waved his hands frantically, "I dare not, absolutely dare not!"
