Invincible Divine Doctor of the Beautiful Lady-Chapter 821 - 795: A Wisp of Longing Cooks the Red Beans
Chapter 821: Chapter 795: A Wisp of Longing Cooks the Red Beans
"For me? This—" Rao Yuanzhi was stunned.
Although he wasn’t entirely sure of the value of the Marrow Cleansing Pill, he knew it was incomparably precious—a supreme treasure that could be encountered but not sought. It was definitely not something that could be easily obtained.
If it were possible to obtain, his master, the Holy Doctor, would likely have found a way to acquire one to help him break through to the Innate Realm, right?
He knew very well that Rao Yuanzhi himself was an elite among the younger generation of the Holy Doctor Sect. But even so, he still hadn’t managed to step into the Innate Realm. The desire to step into the Innate Realm, to become a true Ancient Martial Artist, was incredibly difficult.
However, the Marrow Cleansing Pill was something extraordinary, capable of washing away impurities and directly elevating a person to the Innate Realm. It was practically a heaven-defying treasure.
Tangyu tossed it over and said, "Just take it. A Marrow Cleansing Pill is not much to me now. In terms of seniority, you should call me Martial Uncle. After all, we’re from the same sect. Bestowing you a Marrow Cleansing Pill is no big deal. If there’s a chance in the future, I might even help you grow stronger." fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Right now, Tangyu was eager to cultivate his own forces. Even if he took care of King Yinshan this time, there was still a more terrifying and mysterious Dark World backing him.
If he had his own force, it would be much easier to handle matters in the future, at least he’d have some help, and it wouldn’t leave Tangyu feeling overwhelmed.
Moreover, Tangyu had his own ambitions; he intended to establish a powerful force. Rao Yuanzhi was definitely trustworthy and naturally deserved a pill.
Receiving the Marrow Cleansing Pill, Rao Yuanzhi was momentarily speechless, incredibly moved. This pill might change his life, change his fate: "Tangyu—"
Just as Rao Yuanzhi was about to say something, Tangyu interrupted him, "Alright, friends shouldn’t say too much. I also hope to see you become stronger. Someday we might fight for the world together."
"Haha, then I’ll thank you, my generous Martial Uncle," Rao Yuanzhi laughed.
Rao Yuanzhi sat aside and swallowed the Marrow Cleansing Pill. Tangyu walked to the bedside of Lengzi, who was already eagerly waiting: "Boss, hurry up, I want to become powerful."
After treating Lengzi, Tangyu also gave him a Marrow Cleansing Pill to take.
The process of cleansing and washing impurities wasn’t quick, so Tangyu went out to treat Xu Hu and the others. It took the better part of the day to heal the eight of them, leaving Tangyu almost exhausted. Doing this kind of thing was truly tiring.
Returning to the room of Xiaoyu and the others, he found that their cleansing process had finished. Both had untied their bindings on their own and were energetically appearing before Tangyu. Rao Yuanzhi had also completed a transformation. The three, seeing Tangyu enter, happily greeted him.
Seeing the three, Tangyu nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad, it seems you all did well. Alright, I’ll leave things here to you. Xiaoyu, you guys go back to the bar first. I’ll find you this evening. Rao Yuanzhi, help me contact a few people and arrange a dinner for tonight."
"Sure, that’s easy," Rao Yuanzhi agreed with a nod.
After giving some instructions, Tangyu left with Liang Youshan.
Of course, they didn’t leave the hospital but headed towards Doctor Xiao’s office.
From a distance, they saw a long line at Doctor Xiao’s office door, clearly showing the constant flow of people seeking her medical treatment. It was no wonder, even though Rao Yuanzhi’s medical skills were great, there was still some gap compared to Doctor Xiao.
In terms of fame, Doctor Xiao was only slightly less known than Tangyu but still far surpassed others.
Currently, Doctor Xiao had the most patients in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. Even with a daily quota, people still lined up in droves.
Liang Youshan smiled mischievously, "Boss, is that beautiful lady inside also one of your women? Hehehe, returning to Donglin City, it looks like you have three palaces and six courtyards. Tsk tsk, each one is so fresh and delicate. I’m really envious of your romantic encounters. Poor me, I’m still a virgin."
Seeing the serious expression on Doctor Xiao’s face as she busily treated patients, Tangyu didn’t go up to disturb her, just stood there watching.
That face, that silhouette, filled him with joy.
"Boss, stop grinning foolishly. Let’s go directly," Liang Youshan said.
Tangyu shook his head, "Let’s just watch from here."
"Oh—isn’t that Divine Doctor Tang?"
Someone suddenly called out, and immediately all eyes turned to Tangyu, creating a hubbub of excitement.
"It’s really Divine Doctor Tang, he’s back!"
While treating patients, Doctor Xiao heard these voices and felt her heart tremble. She looked up in shock and saw Tangyu. Seeing that familiar figure, her gaze seemed to freeze.
A flood of memories surged like a torrent.
Longing, like tears, flowed endlessly.
Though she had used work to numb herself and fill her days over the past two months, to avoid thinking about anything else...
Each quiet night, her thoughts would surge uncontrollably. She would think of Tangyu, a man deeply ingrained in her heart, one she could never forget.
He was Tangyu, the man who had saved her, now the source of her faith and motivation to live.
Meeting again was like a cherished yearning brought to life.
Seeing this, the patients also quieted down. The rumors about Tangyu and Doctor Xiao’s relationship had always been numerous.
"Let’s come back later to see Doctor Xiao. There’s no rush, we’ll return this afternoon," someone suggested.
Immediately, others echoed, "Yes, I’m not in a hurry either. Let’s come back this afternoon."
"Alright, let’s go."
Immediately, those patients left consciously. Seeing this scene, Tangyu shook his head and smiled, Doctor Xiao’s heart felt warm, and a sense of gratitude filled her. This feeling was something she had never experienced over the past few years.
Be sincere with people, and only then will they sincerely appreciate you.
"Well, I’ll go to the bathroom. I can’t stand watching anymore. Damn, I feel like jerking off." Liang Youshan said mischievously and then ran away.
Tangyu walked over to Doctor Xiao, who stood there, looking at Tangyu with a sea of tenderness, deep affection, and endless longing and emotions that couldn’t be fully expressed.
"You’re back." Doctor Xiao said.
Tangyu nodded: "Yes, I’m back."
"Will you leave again?"
Tangyu nodded again: "I will leave again, but—I should stay for a while this time, though I’m not sure for how long. Maybe ten days if short, and it could be up to a month if longer."
"Okay." Doctor Xiao simply said one word.
Tangyu discreetly locked the office door; he only wanted to be alone with Doctor Xiao without any interruptions.
Doctor Xiao calmly looked at Tangyu without stopping him. Although their relationship wasn’t made explicit, anyone could see the feelings these two had for each other.
Just certain things hadn’t been put out in the open.
Looking at Doctor Xiao, Tangyu felt a bit heartbroken: "Don’t work so hard, you see you’ve got some wrinkles on your face."
Doctor Xiao smiled lightly: "Treating more people brings me happiness; I only see thirty patients a day, which is quite few already."
Doctor Xiao had changed greatly, and this immense change made Tangyu feel a bit emotional. This change might be because of him.
"Do you miss me?" Tangyu asked.
Doctor Xiao looked at Tangyu and said: "Shouldn’t you be the one asking me this question?"
Tangyu smiled: "Yes, but you don’t have to ask me, I can answer you." Saying this, Tangyu walked over and embraced Doctor Xiao tightly. Their bodies were closely pressed together, feeling each other’s warmth, heartbeat, and everything.
Doctor Xiao also tightly hugged Tangyu back. She longed for this embrace, this care, this warmth.
Her heart was momentarily melted, her tearful eyes couldn’t help but let the tears flow.
But she was a resolute woman, never easily letting her tears fall.
Just like that, they held each other purely, without any impure thoughts or actions, it was pure love, a beautiful love, capable of touching the soul.
There was no trace of primitive human desire, just pure love from the heart.
"Can you tell me your story over the past two months?" Doctor Xiao gently whispered in Tangyu’s ear. She was tired, and at this moment, she just wanted to quietly lean in Tangyu’s arms and enjoy this moment of happiness and warmth.
Tangyu nodded: "Of course, as long as you want to listen."
Then, Tangyu slowly began to recount his experiences outside Myriad Saints Valley. Doctor Xiao had some understanding of the Ancient Martial World and its powers, so there was nothing to hide from her.
Listening to Tangyu’s stories, Doctor Xiao remained calm, as if a little girl being lulled to sleep by her mother’s storytelling.
Tangyu kept talking, and Doctor Xiao silently listened.
No one knew how long it took before Tangyu finished all his stories, and Doctor Xiao finally spoke: "That’s all? It felt so fast, I didn’t get enough of it. It was like listening to a legendary tale."
Tangyu smiled: "Yes, looking back, I myself feel it’s unbelievable, really against the odds. Calling it a legend wouldn’t be an exaggeration."
"Hmm." Doctor Xiao nodded with a smile. She was very happy.
"Now, tell me about what’s happened to you during this time. I’d like to hear." Tangyu said.
Doctor Xiao hesitated for a moment, then said: "Work, eat, sleep—think of you."
Tangyu smiled and held Doctor Xiao even tighter: "I miss you too."
For a long while—
The two finally separated.
Tangyu moved his hand, taking out a Marrow Cleansing Pill and handed it to Doctor Xiao.
Doctor Xiao’s eyes widened: "Marrow Cleansing Pill?"
"Yes, Marrow Cleansing Pill, for you." Tangyu said.
Doctor Xiao looked at Tangyu and after a moment of silence, she took it and nodded: "If I fall too far behind, I’m afraid the distance between us will slowly widen. Although I have no interest in ancient martial arts, for you, I’m willing to try to keep up with your pace."
Tangyu smiled and said: "If you don’t want to cultivate, then don’t. Just take it to strengthen your body. Besides, it can help maintain your appearance too. This pill only has benefits and no harm. In the future, when I become stronger and have enough resources, I can upgrade you to the Earthly Realm, which will allow you to stay young forever."
"Hmm." Doctor Xiao nodded.
