Chapter 19 - Chapter 19

"Young Master Fang, please rest in the main room."

"I will go retrieve the Bú Guǒ now to thank Young Master for his great kindness!"

Bai Jiang walked out of the room, his eyes red, and bowed deeply to Fang Ling.

"Young Master Fang, please follow me!" Bai Bo also quickly led the way, taking Fang Ling to the guest room to rest first.

Along the way, the Bai family's servants and Guest Elders were all shocked at the sight.

The usually arrogant Second Master of the Bai family was now so polite to this young man.

On the other side, in the small hall where the physicians were discussing the illness.

Not much time had passed since Fang Ling left.

At this moment, they were still discussing heatedly, trying to determine what poison the Bai family Miss had been afflicted with.

Just then, Bai Jiang walked in.

Bai Jiang was a renowned figure in the Cultivation world of the Nanyang Kingdom.

Although these physicians present also had some status, they dared not be negligent in front of him.

One by one, seeing him arrive, they immediately stood up and greeted him.

"Patriarch Bai, has there been any change in your esteemed daughter's poisoning?" Dr. Dou, the most authoritative physician, asked.

Bai Jiang could not hide the joy on his face and replied, "Yes, the poison my little girl was afflicted with has been cured."

"However, I would still like to trouble Dr. Dou to go and take a look."

"Please prescribe some remedies to help my little girl recover her health as soon as possible."

The physicians present were all somewhat surprised upon hearing this.

They had just gone to examine her not long ago, and the poison was clearly already in an advanced stage, completely integrated with her.

How could the poison suddenly be cured?

"Patriarch Bai, what exactly happened?" The gray-robed elder quickly asked.

He had come to the Bai family this time for the Bú Guǒ.

Now that the Bai family Miss's poisoning had disappeared, he would no longer have the opportunity to obtain this treasure.

"Everything is thanks to Divine Physician Fang; it was his miraculous touch that helped my little girl remove the toxins accumulated in her body," Bai Jiang replied.

"Divine Physician Fang? Is there a Divine Physician Fang in our Nanyang Kingdom?"

"Never heard of him!"

"This person has such great ability, to actually cure that strange poison."

The physicians whispered among themselves, very curious about this Divine Physician Fang.

"Patriarch Bai, may I ask the background of this Divine Physician Fang?" The gray-robed elder continued to press.

Bai Jiang said indifferently, "I'm not very clear either, but he was here just now; you all should have seen him."

"Could it be that young man from just now?" Dr. Dou's beautiful eyes widened, and she murmured to herself.

Only Fang Ling had left this living room earlier; no one else had moved a step.

Many also recalled Fang Ling, whom they had previously ignored, never expecting him to possess such ability at such a young age.

The Disciple beside the gray-robed elder looked even more incredulous: "Impossible, that kid just now was about my age, and he didn't smell of medicine at all; he looked like an amateur."

"Patriarch Bai, don't be deceived by him."

"Quickly let my Master diagnose your daughter; perhaps that kid used an illusion."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jiang snorted coldly: "Silence! Whether my little girl is cured or not, do you think I, Bai, wouldn't be able to tell with my discernment?"

Fang Ling had saved his daughter; in his heart, he was a great benefactor, and he would not tolerate others discussing him.

The arrogant young man was so frightened by Bai Jiang's reprimand that his face turned pale, and he hid behind the gray-robed elder, quickly lowering his head and daring not to speak further.

Seeing Bai Jiang's anger, the gray-robed elder quickly said, "Patriarch Bai, please calm your anger; it is my fault for not teaching my Disciple properly."

"Zisheng, what kind of place is this? Do you have the right to speak?"

"Disciple admits fault!" He quickly confessed his mistake.

Given Bai Jiang's status, he naturally would not press the matter further.

He immediately took Dr. Dou and the gray-robed elder to his daughter's boudoir.

Dr. Dou sat by the bed and personally took her pulse.

As for the others, they perceived her Qi from behind the bed curtain.

"How is my little girl doing?" After a while, Bai Jiang asked softly.

Although he was confident in his own judgment, he still wanted to hear what these famous physicians had to say.

Dr. Dou withdrew her hand and gently nodded: "Your esteemed daughter's body indeed has no residual toxins."

"However, this poisoning has damaged her body, and after some recovery, she will need good nourishment."

"I will prescribe a remedy now to help her recuperate."

"Then I shall trouble Dr. Dou." Bai Jiang was completely at ease.

He looked at the gray-robed elder and the others, and the results they obtained were also consistent.

Now, his daughter's breathing had also returned to normal, though it was still somewhat weak.

"By the way, is this Divine Physician Fang still in the manor?" Dr. Dou suddenly asked.

"I would like to pay my respects to this Divine Physician Fang."

"He is in the guest room next to yours, Master and Disciple," Bai Jiang replied.

Seeing that the other physicians also wanted to pay their respects, he turned to them and said, "Divine Physician Fang is currently a guest in my manor. If you wish to pay your respects, please consider the timing."

"If you all go in a rush, it will inevitably disturb his peace."

The physicians chuckled and repeatedly agreed, awkwardly leaving one by one.

......

"Master, do you think that Netherworld Beast in the inn's stable might be this Divine Physician Fang's mount?" In the corridor, Dr. Dou's Disciple asked.

"The poison that Bai family Miss was afflicted with, Master, you said was tricky, yet he resolved it with a flick of his hand."

"This suggests he should be more powerful than Master, so it's very likely he's the owner of that Netherworld Beast."

The beautiful woman also felt it was highly probable; otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence in the world?

"Don't come in with Master later; I'm afraid you'll offend him with your loose tongue," she said.

"No way! I… Disciple obeys!" The young girl originally wanted to argue a bit, but seeing the beautiful woman glare fiercely, she quickly gave up.

A moment later, the two arrived at the guest room where Fang Ling was staying.

The beautiful woman gave her Disciple a look, and the latter immediately returned to her own room.

After the young girl returned to her room, the beautiful woman raised her hand and gently knocked on the door.

"Please come in!" Fang Ling's voice came from inside the room.

Upon entering the room, she gracefully bowed to Fang Ling: "This humble one, Dou Qin, offers her greetings!"

"Fang Ling." He also introduced himself, "May I ask why Young Miss is looking for me, and what guidance you wish to impart?"

"I dare not offer guidance; it's just that this humble one is curious about the poison that Young Miss Bai Ying was afflicted with, what exactly it was?" Dou Qin asked.

"Although this humble one is not a Master physician, I have Cultivated in the Dao of medicine for many years."

"I have seen countless strange poisons, but I have never encountered such a bizarre and potent one."

Fang Ling smiled: "Actually, she wasn't poisoned, but was parasitized by a venomous insect."

"The symptoms of poisoning that were displayed were already the result of this venomous insect suppressing its toxins with all its might."

"What kind of venomous insect is so powerful?" Dou Qin was a little surprised.

"This humble one has Cultivated the Dao of medicine for five hundred years, and my spiritual power already possesses a considerable detoxifying effect."

"But even so, my spiritual power had no effect whatsoever on the toxins of this venomous insect."

"As Your Excellency said, this is still the Qi of the poison that the venomous insect deliberately restrained but could not avoid overflowing; if it were under normal circumstances…"

"Seven-Colored Sky Butterfly, have you heard of it?" Fang Ling asked.

"Never heard of it." Dou Qin shook her head, "Is this insect still alive? Could Your Excellency allow this humble one to broaden her horizons…"

Fang Ling: "No need; I'm afraid you'd be poisoned to death by it. It's probably quite agitated right now."

"Alright!" Dou Qin did not press further, "Then this humble one will not disturb you. Farewell!"
