Chapter 762 - 692: A Bowl of Medicine_2
Everyone was in the middle of dinner.
Indeed, now that the smog issue had been resolved, Li Fan invited Yun Chen, Mu Wanqing, and the others to join him for a meal.
The food was extremely sumptuous, prepared by Gong Ya herself, including braised pig’s trotters, braised meat, steamed fish slices…
The meat dishes were leftovers from the last feast, stored in several large cold boxes.
“Sister Gong Ya’s cooking skills have gotten better and better, it’s really delicious.”
Zi Ling praised while savoring the delicious food.
“Yeah… Sister Gong Ya is amazing…”
Yun Xi was eating delightfully as well, complimenting Gong Ya.
Hearing this, Gong Ya was overjoyed in her heart, but she still said,
“You all flatter me too much, my cooking skills are still far behind our master…”
Li Fan couldn’t help but smile and said, “There’s no need to be modest, on the whole, it’s quite good.”
In fact, Gong Ya had indeed made quick progress, having almost mastered common home-cooked dishes.
Of course, there were still some shortcomings, for instance, the meat was cut too large, the steaming was not soft enough… but it didn’t affect the taste.
“Is Senior Li here?”
At this time, the voice of Mu Rantian came from outside.
Upon hearing this, Li Fan put down his chopsticks and said,
“I’m at home, come in please.”
Immediately, Yun Qianshan and the others pushed the door open and entered.
“Grandpa… why have you all come?”
Mu Wanqing stood up and asked upon seeing them.
Mu Rantian said,
“These two have been injured by someone, we had no choice but to bring them here to ask Senior Li to save their lives…”
With that, he transmitted the details of what had just happened to Mu Wanqing through voice transmission.
Mu Wanqing was surprised to hear it. In just this short span, a Great Holy Land within the Divine Realm… seemed to have been wiped out?
That was too astonishing…
“Senior Li, these two are also among the kind-hearted. Could I ask you to extend your help to save them?”
Mu Rantian inquired of Li Fan!
The Honored Haoming and Saintess Zhen Xuan were both greatly shaken at this moment.
The moment they stepped into the courtyard, they felt overwhelmed.
In this courtyard, there seemed to be an endless source of the Dao, vast and boundless!
Moreover, the creatures in the small courtyard were each more terrifying than the last…
Previously, their ultimate imagining of divine beasts were only the Big Black Dog and Old Yellow Bull…
Now they discovered that in this courtyard, a chicken, a fish, even an ant…
Were all beings they could not even hope to compare with!
At this moment, their gaze inevitably fell on Li Fan.
“Could he… be the unparalleled expert from the Great Ruins Realm?!”
Haoming murmured to himself, utterly convinced that this young man must be the owner of this place!
Because from everyone present, he could sense their respect towards Li Fan.
But upon closer inspection, he realized that Li Fan’s body seemed to be devoid of any aura of cultivation level…
As if he were a mortal?
Impossible…
It seemed this senior’s cultivation level must have reached an indiscernible state!
With mere mortal eyes, one simply couldn’t see it.
Zhen Xuan also had a heart full of questions. How could such a young man command such awe from so many powerful individuals? Even the Big Black Dog, capable of killing the Origin of Grey Mist, could only lie at his feet from a distance, wagging its tail at him!
As a tremendous surge of doubt swirled in their hearts, Li Fan calmly stood up, glanced at the Honored Haoming and Saintess Zhen Xuan, and said,
“Hmm… If I’m not mistaken, the two of you seem to have been injured by something beyond your capacity to withstand.”
His expertise in the field of medicine was indeed profound.
He could see at a glance that these two had likely been injured by heavy objects…
Back in the village, there were similar injuries among the villagers, mainly from physical labor. Sometimes, when moving heavy objects, if they were too heavy, one could easily suffer internal injuries.
But he was puzzled. Typically, aren’t those engaging in physical labor youths or adults?
This pair, an old man and a young girl…
It looked like they had a fairly tough life…
Haoming and Zhen Xuan were startled upon hearing this.
The senior truly possessed Fiery Eyes Golden Gaze!
He discerned instantly that they had been injured by the Origin of Grey Mist, something they couldn’t bear.
An absolute expert!
“Honorable Senior… You are absolutely correct!”
Zhen Xuan couldn’t help but speak with deep respect.
Hearing this, Li Fan felt no more doubt, realizing he hadn’t been mistaken.
“Bai Qian, go and prepare two prescriptions to treat and nourish the internal organs.”
Li Fan immediately ordered.
Upon hearing this, Su Baiqian stood up and said,
“Okay.”
She went straight to the pharmacy.
Soon, she returned with two prescriptions, dissolved them in hot water, and said,
“You two, take the medicine while it’s hot.”
Seeing this, Haoming and Zhen Xuan were both shocked.
Because they could clearly feel the unparalleled primordial aura emanating from within the medicine bowls.
The white mist curling up like the purest and most sacred Source Qi in the world.
“We… we are unworthy of such divine medicine!”
Upon sensing the medicine, Honored Haoming’s first reaction was actually one of profound embarrassment!
This medicine was too sacred, too supreme; facing it, he felt like a destitute beggar who had suddenly been offered a dish of dragon liver and phoenix gall, completely at a loss for what to do!
Saintess Zhen Xuan also said with a trembling voice,
“Senior Li, Miss Bai Qian… this medicine is too precious.”
Seeing this, Li Fan’s heart filled with even more sympathy.
This elderly man and this young woman, their lives were truly difficult, not to mention doing manual labor, even using a little medicine when injured filled them with fear.
Indeed, for the poor, falling ill was not an option!
“Rest assured, this medicine is a gift to you both,”
he declared then and there.
To spare them further concerns.
At his words, both Honored Haoming and Saintess Zhen Xuan were startled.
This kind of senior, offering them a gift…
This cause and effect… could they dare not accept it??
“You two need not refuse; this medicine… really isn’t anything special,”
Su Baiqian said, picking up the bowl and passing it to Honored Haoming and Saintess Zhen Xuan.
Feeling they could no longer refuse, they accepted the bowl of medicine.
“We obey the venerable’s command!”
declared Saintess Zhen Xuan, and then drank it.
As the medicinal soup entered her body,
a sacred, supreme Primordial Qi suddenly flowed throughout her entire body.
At that moment, she felt as if her internal organs were being nourished and repaired, and her source was being reconsolidated!
Moreover, within her source, there seemed to be a mist of white vapor.
“Boom!”
At the same time, her aura surged, advancing from the Divine Monarch Realm into the midst of the Divine Kings.
Saintess Zhen Xuan was immediately stunned…
This medicine…
was fierce!
Finding himself startled by Saintess Zhen Xuan’s transformation, Honored Haoming was even more shocked, his hands trembling as he reverently consumed it.
Aura surged wildly, source reassembled, wounds across his body disappeared in a blink, and he felt as if his whole being were reborn, almost stepping into the Sub-Emperor Realm…
At that moment, he wanted nothing more than to howl to the heavens, feeling as if he could tear apart the Ash Mist Creatures with his bare hands!
“Thank you, Senior, thank you… Our wounds have healed!”
He bowed solemnly to Li Fan!
Saintess Zhen Xuan quickly knelt down as well.
Seeing this, Li Fan said with a smile,
“No need for such formalities, please get up.”
As he spoke, both felt an inexplicable force compelling them to rise.
“Their actions followed his words…”
Both Honored Haoming and Saintess Zhen Xuan felt an overwhelming admiration.
This was the demeanor of a true master, who lived inconspicuously among the mountain villages, acting with the simplicity of an ordinary person, yet in every small deed, demonstrating a supreme majesty!
“Um… Miss Mu Wanqing,”
At this time, Li Fan turned to Mu Wanqing and said,
“If possible, how about letting these two, join you in seeking some employment?”
An elderly man and a young woman had to do physical labor to this extent; Li Fan found it quite pitiful…
Mu Wanqing and the others, now that they had a business, providing two jobs shouldn’t be a problem, right??
Upon hearing this, Mu Wanqing was immediately surprised.
Behind Honored Haoming and Saintess Zhen Xuan was Zhenming Holy Land…
Did Senior Li mean to integrate the Great Ruins Realm with the Zhenming Holy Land?
What Senior Li referred to as “finding some employment” was probably, about to be a significant undertaking!
At this moment, she couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement.
Having received so much kindness from Senior Li all this time, they finally had a chance to make use of their skills, to repay Senior Li.
She couldn’t help expressing joyfully,
“As you command! Wanqing will definitely not disappoint Senior’s expectations!”
Li Fan said with a smile,
“Let’s not stand around any longer, sit down and eat.”
…
Meanwhile,
in the Divine Realm.
Yuanyang Continent, Lin Family.
“Ancestor, since we’ve deduced that Lanshan’s death is related to Zhenming Holy Land…”
Lin Lanfeng said with a somber expression,
“Now, taking action against Zhenming Holy Land is justifiable.”
“Perhaps, we should start by targeting Zhenming Holy Land!”
Inside the great hall, Lin Lanfeng was reporting.
Sitting on the throne shrouded in grey mist, God Emperor Lin Banyang spoke coldly,
“Very well.”
“Send someone to command their submission first!”
“Zhenming Laozu should be nearing the Imperial Path… Now is the time to force him to pick a side. If he submits, so be it; if not, it’s better to remove them sooner rather than later.”
Immediately, the Lin Family dispatched forces, heading towards Zhenming Holy Land.

Goodnight, long chapter.
