Ultimate Village Doctor-Chapter 757 - 819 Don’t Leave Tonight
Chapter 757: Chapter 819: Don’t Leave Tonight Chapter 757: Chapter 819: Don’t Leave Tonight Chapter 819
Like a white dragon, the earth energy surged skyward, whirling above Yanxia Lake as if a Flood Dragon had escaped its bonds, roaring for a long while before gradually fading into the void.
Curling wisps of white smoke drifted above Yanxia Lake.
Common folk could not see the Feng Shui earth energy.
Yet they could feel that Yanxia Lake seemed to have regained its past liveliness, while in the previous days, it had felt more like a stagnant pool.
Master Wudao closed his eyes, then looked at Long Xiaoshan with an excitement-laden gaze, “Grandmaster, your mana is boundless, nearly that of a Heavenly Being; this monk admires you.”
Master Wudao had immersed himself in the Feng Shui Sector for many years and was a Grandmaster of the sector.
But even in his youth, after wandering the Feng Shui Sector for so long,
he had never seen anyone who could suppress a lake’s earth energy with a mere flick of their wrist.
Such skill, he feared, could scarcely be found among three or two in the entire Feng Shui Sector, each a Grandmaster of rare emergence, yet today, he witnessed it in a young man of twenty.
...
For cultivators, the accomplished are masters.
Although Master Wudao was more than a jiÇŽzÇ (cycle of 60 years) older than Long Xiaoshan,
still, faced with Long Xiaoshan’s divine skill, he held profound respect.
Long Xiaoshan replied with a faint smile, “Master Wudao, you flatter me.
It was but a minor trick, hardly worth mentioning.”
Master Wudao was eager to discuss Feng Shui insights with Long Xiaoshan, for a grandmaster’s presence was rare.
But Long Xiaoshan had no interest in idle chitchat with an old monk, and said, “Master Wudao, since I’ve removed the seal, and it’s getting late, perhaps it’s time for you to rest.”
Master Wudao gave a wry smile.
Usually, it was the dignitaries who rushed to seek his counsel, and he, having long since withdrawn from worldly affairs to focus on Chan meditation, could decline even provincial-level officials at his door.
But today, he unexpectedly received a dismissal.
He coughed lightly and said, “Then this monk will not impose any longer on Grandmaster Long.
Should another opportunity arise, I would like to seek your guidance.
Oh!right, Grandmaster, about that Mantra Wheel of mine! Could you!?”
Although the Mantra Wheel was damaged in the magical duel, it was still a Superior Grade Magical Instrument, and even damaged, Master Wudao was reluctant to part with it; it might still be repairable.
“Oh, you mean that Mantra Wheel?
Well, that thing is already broken.
Leave it with me, and I’ll study it for some days.
Surely, Grandmaster, you’re not too attached to a broken artifact,” said Long Xiaoshan with a chuckle.
Master Wudao’s mouth twitched twice.
Even after more than a decade of sitting in meditation, his frustration was unstoppable.
He regretted getting involved in these worldly disputes.
‘The original mind is free from impurities; why invite the dust of the earth?’ If it hadn’t been for his moment of anger, how could so much trouble have arisen?
Not only was he hurt from the duel, but his best artifact was now lost too.
“Amitabha,” said Master Wudao.
“To meet is to share a karmic connection.
Master Rendi, who gifted me the Mantra Wheel, once said that this artifact and I had a karmic bond of twenty years.
Now that I think about it, it has indeed been twenty years.
Since Grandmaster Long likes this Mantra Wheel, it shows that you have a connection with it.
I will give it to the Grandmaster as a gift.”
Long Xiaoshan was now somewhat appreciative of the old monk, who swiftly provided a graceful way out for himself.
Initially, he felt no burden about taking someone else’s artifact, having won it through a duel.
Now, he felt a slight sense of embarrassment.
He straightforwardly handed over a few Array Jade Plaques he had just retrieved and said, “Thank you for the gift of the artifact, Master.
I’ll accept it, not standing on ceremony.
Here are some Array Jade Plaques used for Sealing and Suppression of the earth energy.
If Master is interested, please take them for your amusement.”
Master Wudao’s eyes brightened.
He had always wanted to clarify how Long Xiaoshan had managed to seal and suppress the earth energy of Yanxia Lake.
The frustration over losing the Mantra Wheel vanished, and he eagerly took the jade tokens, saying, “Amitabha, this monk will not stand on ceremony then.”
After a few words, Master Wudao finally took his leave with reluctance.
Situ Mingde approached and respectfully said, “Grandmaster Long, could you also help remove the evil energy from the Situ Family?”
Long Xiaoshan indifferently replied, “There’s no need to worry, I will suppress this evil energy!”
As he spoke, Long Xiaoshan flicked his fingers continuously, radiating strands of invisible formation energy.
A large amount of evil energy gathered together, resembling a huge, dark, evil snake that had horns on its head and was swaying its head and tail.
Long Xiaoshan formed a trick with his hands.
The dark serpent streaked across the sky above the Situ Family, charged toward the direction of the Situ Family ancestral shrine, and burrowed into the ground.
With the evil energy swept clean, the moonlight in the sky became clear and transparent, the gloomy feeling vanished, and a great amount of Feng Shui earth energy flowed in, seemingly restoring vitality to the Situ Family.
Situ Mingde also felt the oppressive feeling that had been weighing on his chest disappear, and his body felt much lighter.
“Thank you, Grandmaster,” Situ Mingde quickly expressed his gratitude.
Long Xiaoshan sneered, “You don’t need to thank me yet.
I have suppressed those evil energies, but I have not eradicated them.
Instead, I have sealed them beneath your ancestral shrine.
If the Situ Family dares to harbor any thoughts again, those accumulated evil energies will erupt completely, tarnishing the spirits of your Situ Family ancestors and severing your Situ Family’s lineage once and for all.
Your Situ Family will never recover.”
Situ Mingde turned pale.
That move by Long Xiaoshan was truly ruthless.
However, if he were in Long Xiaoshan’s place, dealing with enemies who had provoked him, his actions would be even more ruthless, Situ Mingde said somberly, “Grandmaster is insightful.
The Situ Family dares not have any improper thoughts towards the Grandmaster again, otherwise, may heaven strike us with thunder.”
Long Xiaoshan smiled faintly.
He knew Situ Mingde was a wise man.
Talking with an intelligent person is much simpler because they are rational and do not act impulsively.
As long as Situ Mingde was around, the Situ Family would never dare to stir up any trouble again.
Having dealt with the Situ Family matter, Long Xiaoshan approached Shangguan Baihe and said, “Sister Shangguan, I have handled the Situ Family’s issue.
But tell me, are you really not considering leaving the Situ Family?”
Shangguan Baihe, with her narrowed phoenix eyes, smiled icily, “The Situ Family has tormented me for more than ten years, wasting the best years of my life here.
How could I easily walk away?
Besides, if I leave, what use would Qian Qian be as the Family Head?
Of course, I must stay.”
Long Xiaoshan was well aware that Shangguan Baihe was a very ambitious woman, not the kind who would be content with mediocrity, so her choice was not hard to understand.
Neither did Long Xiaoshan view Shangguan Baihe differently because of her ambition.
In his view.
Whether it’s the kind, gentle woman who is devoted to her husband and children, or the spiky, enchanting woman who resembles a seductive spirit, both have their own appealing qualities.
There is no distinction of superior or inferior.
He shrugged his shoulders and said, “Alright, Sister Shangguan, since this is your choice, I support you.

But I should probably head back to Hechuan soon.
If you have any problems, you can go to Tang Shengfeng; he is the Family Head of the Tang Family and should be able to help you.”
“Thank you, Xiaoshan,” Shangguan Baihe’s eyes flickered with a hint of bewilderment.
“Well then, it’s getting late today, so I should be going.
Tomorrow I will have Tang Shengfeng send some experts to help you,” Long Xiaoshan said as he bade farewell.
Suddenly, Shangguan Baihe grasped Long Xiaoshan’s hand and said softly, “Stay tonight, don’t go.”
