Chapter 474 - Divine Doctor
"Thank you for your help. Here are 500 gold coins for the trouble." An old lady handed Yu Rou the reward for completing her quest.
"Thank you."
After accepting the gold coins, Yu Rou left the store and grouped up with Yuan and the others waiting outside.
"How many quests have we completed in the last few days? I lost count at 21," said Yuan.
"I don’t know, but we earned a lot of gold coins— at least if we compare ourselves to the majority of the playerbase." Yu Rou said.
"What do you want to do now? Continue doing quests?"
"I think we should take a break from quests and do something more relaxing. Let’s go to a restaurant and have some food." Yu Rou suggested.
"That sounds great." Yuan nodded.
However, before they could go anywhere, a familiar voice resounded from the sky, and two figures descended from the heavens a moment later, shocking the pedestrians there.
"Young Master, I am back!" Feng Yuxiang called out to him from the sky as she descended.
"That’s your Young Master?" Li Shizhen raised his eyebrows with a surprised look on his face after sensing Yuan’s Spirit Grandmaster cultivation base.
He knew someone who could make Feng Yuxiang lower herself to become a servant wouldn’t be an ordinary person, but to think he was a Spirit Grandmaster at such a young-looking age; it was quite shocking, especially since this is the Lower Heavens.
"Feng Feng?" Yuan smiled when he saw her beautiful face.
"They’re flying..." Xia Jingyi mumbled in a dazed voice as she stared at them with disbelief on her face.
"I’m sorry for making you wait this long, Young Master. Please forgive me." Feng Yuxiang said to him after landing on the ground.
"Why are you apologizing? I should be thanking you instead." Yuan said.
He then turned to look at the handsome middle-aged man standing beside her and said, "Hello, you must be the doctor Feng Feng told me about."
’Feng Feng?’ Li Shizhen laughed inwardly when he heard this cute nickname for Feng Yuxiang.
He wanted to try saying it too, but he didn’t dare to actually say it out loud, as that might result in a sword violating his b.u.t.t.
Li Shizhen then responded with a friendly smile on his face, "Good morning, Young Master. My name is Li Shizhen, also known as Divine Doctor Li. I was told by Madam Feng here that you wanted to speak with me? Are you sick?"
Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, I wanted to speak with you. Can we go somewhere more private before we continue?"
"Most certainly. I know the perfect place." Li Shizhen said.
Yuan then turned to Yu Rou and the others before speaking, "I’m sorry, but can you guys go ahead without me? I have some business to take care of now."
"Is everything okay, brother?" Yu Rou asked him with a worried look on her face.
"Yes, everything is fine. I am just asking him for advice. I will tell you everything later."
"If you say so... Then we’ll see you later, brother."
"Xiao Hua, can you stay with them just in case anything happens?" Yuan said to her before they left.
"Okay." Xiao Hua nodded.
"Thank you."
Yu Rou left the scene with Xia Jingyi and Meixiu a moment later, followed by Xiao Hua.
"Shall we go now?" Li Shizhen asked him.
"Yes, let’s go." Yuan nodded.
Li Shizhen proceeded to take Yuan to a nearby medicine store. In fact, it was one of the biggest and most popular medicine stores in the city.
When the manager of that store saw Li Shizhen’s face, he immediately kowtowed on the floor.
"Welcome to our humble establishment, Divine Doctor Li!"
Even though he had never personally met Li Shizhen before, there was not a single doctor in the Lower Heavens that didn’t know of Li Shizhen.
"Do you mind if we use one of your private rooms for a bit?" Li Shizhen asked him with a friendly smile.
"Please! Stay however long you want! I will even close the store until you leave so that there will be no distraction!" The manager said.
"It’s okay, you don’t have to do so much. And for allowing us to use your place, I will give every doctor in this place an hour lecture if you wish."
"Thank you! Thank you very much!" The manager began crying when he heard that Li Shizhen will be giving them a lecture.
To receive a lecture from the Divine Doctor, even if it’s just an hour, they will remember this for the rest of their life, and they can wear this achievement with pride.
Yuan was left speechless after witnessing this scene, and he could only imagine how much of a big shot Li Shizhen was.
Sometime later, Yuan and the others entered this private room somewhere inside the medicine store.
"Have a seat." Li Shizhen said.
Once they were seated, Feng Yuxiang said, "Before we start, let me give you some background about Li Shizhen and why you can trust him."
"Li Shizhen holds the title of Divine Doctor, a prestigious title that can only be held by the best doctors in the Nine Heavens, and although he’s currently staying in the Lower Heavens, Li Shizhen is actually from the upper heavens."
"What? Really?" Yuan looked at Li Shizhen with a surprised expression.
Li Shizhen nodded and said, "There are plenty of Divine Doctors in the upper heavens while the Lower Heavens lacked one, so I willingly came down here to help those in need of it. I even restricted my cultivation base to the peak of Spirit Grandmaster so that I can stay here without any problems."
"I have wandered around the Lower Heavens for over 1,000 years now, and I do not plan on returning to the upper heavens anytime soon, as there are still a lot of people who are in need of a good doctor in the Lower Heavens."
