The treatnt for the Jade Qilin was excellent, as it was arranged by Jiang Yunqi in a room in the outer left wing to recover from its injuries.
At this point, the Jiangnan dical Pavilion was burgeoning, and there weren’t enough beds available. The sick people were cramd in groups of three or five, yet the Jade Qilin had a separate room here.
When Li Xuan arrived, he noticed a young servant in green clothes walking out from inside. Upon seeing Li Xuan, this young servant imdiately bowed his head and moved to the side.
Li Xuan inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity, as if this green-clad servant looked familiar.
However, seeing as he frequented the dical pavilion, and he had t most of the twenty or so doctors, as well as the hundreds of long-term workers employed there, it was not unusual for him to feel a sense of familiarity.
But the mont he stepped into the room, Li Xuan suddenly turned back, his eyes icily staring at the back of the green-clad servant.
Sothing was off; he was sure he had never seen this man in the dical pavilion before.
Moreover, when the man bowed his head earlier, his facial expression was unusually stiff, and his gaze was also off--
Then Li Xuan gave a cold laugh, and as he walked into the room, he sent out a letter seal.
This was Jiang Yunqi’s dical pavilion, so it was inconvenient for him to take action here.
However, as soon as this man left this place, what awaited him would be a dragnet.
When Li Xuan entered the room, he found that Jade Qilin was half-kneeling on the bed. It was sprawled weakly, its eyes were red-rimd.
Dugu Biluo was sitting by the side. She was sitting in front of the window, flipping through a Taoism book in her hand.
As Lady Jiang’s adopted daughter, Dugu Biluo had nothing to do in her daily life.
Because of her identity, the process of recruiting a ’cultivation ntor’ from the Liudao Division hit a hitch, so she didn’t have to work for the ti being. Thus, Li Xuan simply asked her to take care of Jade Qilin.
As soon as Li Xuan entered, he asked right away, "What was it with the person who just left? Have you seen him before?"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Biluo looked up: "He seems to be a new long-term worker at the dical pavilion, who was there to deliver dicine to the pharmacy."
Li Xuan had a clearer understanding then, suspecting that there was indeed sothing wrong with this individual: "Throw away all those dicines and ask the pharmacy to send another batch over."
At this point, he noticed that Jade Qilin seed rather tense, its whole body rigid.
Li Xuan didn’t think much about it, walked over and patted Jade Qilin’s neck to comfort it: "Relax, don’t be afraid. The one who injured you ten days ago, soone called Palace Master Gong Nianci of Tianshi Palace, has been killed by .
Also, that long-term worker just now, he’s probably a bad guy too. I’ll have soone catch him, so he won’t harm you."
But instead of being comforted by him, Jade Qilin’s eyes filled with tears, and large tears began to roll down.
ng Qingfan thought to herself that Palace Master Gong Nianci of Tianshi Palace was her master! The green-clad servant who just left was her senior brother Dongfang Liang, who grew up with her.
Although Senior Brother Dongfang Liang said that the one who actually killed Master was a Zhiling from Heaven Palace and Master Zhongliu,
The cause of Palace Master Gong Nianci’s death undeniably had sothing to do with her and Li Xuan.
This made Jade Qilin feel extrely sad and sowhat at a loss.
She didn’t actually bla Li Xuan as Gong Nianci had tried to hurt Li Xuan several tis with violent ans; Li Xuan was purely retaliating. Even if he had really killed Gong Nianci, it was only right and proper.
However, ng Qingfan felt sowhat uncomforted about herself.
Although she didn’t do much, she just blocked the ’Heavenly Book’s Duplicate’ for just a mont.
Also, would her Senior Brother be caught? Will Li Xuan kill him too?
Li Xuan then asked Dugu Biluo speechlessly, "Have you wronged it? Haven’t you given it the Yuhanzhu Shrimp?"
"Absolutely not!" Dugu Biluo looked at him speechlessly: "It finished a whole basket of shrimps. The doctor told it not to eat too much as its organs have just recovered.
Although it’s a False Heavenly Position and its physical condition is many tis better than normal people, it’s still best to temper it a little."
Li Xuan thought to himself that he couldn’t just let Jade Qilin keep crying like this as it would hurt its spleen.
He understood his mount and knew that it was most likely craving--
So Li Xuan brought out two more large baskets of shrimps, and one more basket of North Sea ice fish.
The North Sea ice fish is a newly developed feed that the Qilin also enjoys. The at is delicious and, like the shrimp, has no fishy sll. It grows in the pristine and excellent environnt of the northern ice sea.
The North Sea fishern also catch this kind of fish, but it requires a lot of effort, so the price is quite high.
If it weren’t for the recent windfall he made in Qinghai-Tibet, easing his financial pressure slightly, he wouldn’t dare to use this as a daily feed for the Jade Qilin.
Jade Qilin’s eyes imdiately widened, staring unblinkingly at the basket of ice fish.
ng Qingfan was speechless at her beastly self, struggling hard to suppress her animal instincts.
Senior Brother - shrimps! Senior Brother - ice fish!
— I must find a way to remind my senior brother, to get him to find a way to escape.
— I’ll finish this basket of ice fish before that, it’s been a long ti since I tasted what the North Sea ice fish tastes like.
ng Qingfan was horrified to find that her head was getting lower and lower, and her consciousness was being consud by her beastly instincts.
Li Xuan, on the other hand, was satisfied with the scene, patting Jade Qilin’s head, and feeling that he was quite accomplished in comforting the spiritual beast.
"Take good care of it! And don’t secretly eat its shrimps."
Li Xuan keenly noticed that Dugu Biluo had a pile of Yuhanzhu shrimp hidden up her sleeve.
"If you want sothing to eat, I can buy it for you, the drunken shrimp made at the Shanwei House is a delicacy you can’t miss in the Capital City."
The flesh of the Yuhanzhu shrimp can be eaten raw, and it is incredibly delicious. They, as cultivators, have no issue with parasites and the like.
However, raw consumption can still never compare to the delicacy prepared by skilled chefs.
Dugu Biluo imdiately blushed to the color of blood. Subconsciously, she covered her sleeve: "I didn’t steal food! I was rely curious to have a taste. Besides, I have money. I can buy them myself."
Since her ntor and several of her senior apprentices had passed away without heirs, much of their assets had fallen into her hands.
Recently, Dugu Biluo had developed a significant interest in food but in truth, she had always loved food.
When her master was still alive, he kept a strict watch on her behavior. Dugu Biluo had to suppress her own tastes for fear of annoying her master.
But now, she has nothing to worry about.
Li Xuan repelled her idea with a laugh, then left the room and headed straight for the backyard of the clinic.
The Jiangnan clinic occupies a large area, which is even slightly larger than Li Xuan’s Marquis of Guanjun’s mansion.
Its backyard is also roughly thirty acres in size, and it’s complete with pavilions and towers.
At this ti, the clinic’s twenty doctors and Jiang Yunqi’s family are living in this courtyard.
As Li Xuan entered, he found Jiang Hanyun practicing her martial art in a small open space in the front yard.
Upon seeing Li Xuan, her eyes brightened with excitent.
"Li Xuan, your timing is perfect, watch this punch!"
With that exclamation, a delicate fist suddenly smashed towards Li Xuan.
Jiang Hanyun’s fox-like transformation had stabilized, but the ’aftereffects’ induced by it still remained.
Her skin is unusually tender and white as jade. Li Xuan had touched it during their dual-cultivation, and it was as smooth as the finest silk or porcelain.
However, Jiang Hanyun’s fist, although delicate and fair, packed a powerful punch.
Li Xuan could feel his body showing signs of losing control as he noted the irregularity in the gravitational force around him.
In so areas, the gravitational force was more than a hundred tis the normal force, while in others, the gravity seed to repel all matter, shooting it directly upward.
After seeing this, Li Xuan had an idea about what was going on. She had just begun mastering the gravitational power beyond electromagnetic forces.
He couldn’t help but feel unnerved, wondering exactly how powerful her mind was.
She didn’t even understand the formula of the gravitational force. So how did she manage to gain control of this power?
Li Xuan didn’t draw his sword but blocked Jiang Hanyun’s punch with the back of it.
Through each scrape, the blade grew stronger, resisting the gusts of wind from all directions——
During the following days, he had made new progress in the Philosophy of the Sword.
Upon receiving this punch, Li Xuan’s body only swayed slightly. However, behind him, a large piece of the ground collapsed, two nearby buildings fell, and the dust was flying.
But after that punch, Li Xuan broke into a cold sweat.
He realized that although he could divert this force with Zhuyi Knife and not be injured, it didn’t an that the force of the punch didn’t exist.
Jiang Hanyun also looked surprised. Seeing the situation, her eyes sparkled again: "Well done! This thod of borrowing and guiding force, it’s the Rule of Extre Heaven ’Void’ of the Saintess White Lotus right? Coupled with your Zhuyi Knife and Hao Qi, it is extraordinarily powerful."
The formidable strength of Li Xuan’s Philosophy of the Sword lies in the combination of the philosophy of the knife and Hao Qi.
This can be considered another form of ’technique’, a way to use Hao Qi.
Li Xuan uses his flawless HaoYi to operate the philosophy of the knife, which seems extraordinarily easy and mighty.
"But, you’re done for!" Jiang Hanyun said, filled with malicious joy, "See those two buildings that just collapsed? They were barely standing before and now they’re gone again. My mother will definitely go after you!"
She looked at Li Xuan sympathetically, knowing all too well that her mother would scold him to the point of no return.
They had previously destroyed two buildings, which caused her mother to reprimand them for a long ti and restrict their practice to the neighboring Marquis of Guanjun’s mansion.
The drill ground there was twenty tis more spacious and had a specially designed Array to protect the surroundings.
"I think the person who’s going to get it is not him, Jiang Hanyun!"
At this mont, an extrely cold voice that sounded like grinding teeth could be heard from the smoke and dust.
Jiang Hanyun’s delicate body trembled at the sound, and she looked in the direction of the noise.
She then saw her mother, Lady Jiang, and several maids walking out of the dust.
Due to the dust, all of them were covered in a layer of gray and their original looks were indistinguishable.
Lady Jiang glared at her daughter, then smiled warmly at Li Xuan: "Xuan, your timing is perfect. I’ve been experinting with a new soup recipe and it’s almost ready. Would you like to try it?"
