As a ray of sunlight stread through the window, it spilled into the room.
The young man in white lying on the bed slowly opened his eyes. Upon regaining consciousness, he seed to recall sothing. He sat up abruptly and looked around. What t his eyes was an unfamiliar room, devoid of any danger.
“You’re awake, Young Master?” exclaid a woman from the group.
The young man in white checked himself. Soone had changed his clothes, and most of his injuries had healed, although he still felt a lingering pain.
“What happened after I passed out? Can you tell ?” he asked aloud. The woman by his bedside recounted everything that had happened the previous day in great detail.
After a while, the young man in white sighed, “I see. I must thank that Physician Qin.”
With that said, he attempted to lift the blanket, but his right arm didn’t respond.
Realization dawned on him, and he fell silent for a mont. After a long pause, he pretended everything was fine and lifted the blanket with his left hand.
The woman at his side wanted to say sothing but couldn’t find the words. She looked at him with deep concern.
The two of them left the room and wandered around the Qin residence, eventually arriving at a pavilion by the lake.
In the center of the pavilion sat a woman in white, incredibly beautiful. The young man in white’s pupils dilated, and he murmured, “It’s her. You ntioned the physician’s surna was Qin?”
“Yes, young master, that’s correct,” the woman replied.
The young man in white fell into a montary daze, lost in his thoughts. He didn’t disturb her but continued to the main hall with his maid.
Shortly after they left, Lui Jianli, who was in a wheelchair, turned her head, glancing in the direction they had gone, before once again withdrawing her gaze.
Inside the main hall of the Qin residence, there was a crowd of people.
Among them were the burly n he had encountered the previous night and the group that had traveled together with him to Qiyuan City. There were also four mbers of the Demon Slayer Departnt among them.
Before gathering everyone, the burly man had explained the situation to them, so when they arrived at the Qin residence, they all appeared tense.
“Physician Qin, you must save us,” pleaded a wealthy rchant.
Qin Feng nodded without saying much. He opened his eyes wide and scanned the people present. To his shock, he discovered that all thirteen people had Heart Devouring Gu attached to their hearts!
“Miss Lan, please fetch so ice from the Moonlit Pavilion,” he said.
Lan Ningshuang was about to agree when another person in the hall spoke up, “No need to trouble her. I happen to have so stored in my spatial jade pendant.”
With those words, a pile of ice appeared out of thin air in the center of the hall, making the surroundings incredibly cold.
The man who produced the ice was a middle-aged man with a sturdy build who had arrived at the Qin residence the previous night. His na was Wang Xu.
Standing next to him was another middle-aged man in a grey robe, tall in stature, nad Mo Lintian.
This information was obtained during Qin Feng’s conversation with them in the early morning.
As for the young man dressed as a nobleman, they ntioned his na too: Ya’an. However, when it ca to his surna, they seed intentionally evasive.
Qin Feng instructed the thirteen individuals to sit on the ice. They all trembled from the cold.
When the Heart Devouring Gu in their bodies stiffened due to the cold, Qin Feng followed his familiar procedure. He carefully removed each Heart Devouring Gu from their hearts and placed them in a basin.
As they watched the terrifying Heart Devouring Gu with blood-red patterns covering their bodies in the basin, everyone’s faces turned grim.
Wang Xu asked in a deep voice, “Physician Qin, our bodies…”
Qin Feng shook his head, “I’ve examined all seven of you, and there are no Heart Devouring Gu in your bodies.”
Hearing this, Wang Xu and Mo Lintian breathed sighs of relief.
Just then, a clear voice rang out from the entrance of the hall, “So, it’s the Heart Devouring Gu. No wonder the people in Qiyuan City went mad. Soone must have controlled their minds using the mother insect.”
Qin Feng followed the voice and saw the young man in white who had dressed as a nobleman the previous night. Perhaps due to the darkness and his urgent need to save lives, he hadn’t paid much attention to him. Today, upon seeing him clearly, he found him surprisingly extraordinary.
She had an extraordinary appearance, with distinct features. Therefore, when she dresses in n’s clothing, she looks very convincing.
Not to ntion her fair skin, her nose is also quite straight. Especially those narrow, elongated eyes and rosy lips, when combined, they create an unforgettable beauty.
Qin Feng raised an eyebrow, “Brother Ya’an, you also know about this insect?”
“I have been well-versed in nurous books since childhood and ca across a description of this insect in “Strange Insects’,” Ya’an replied calmly. However, in his calm tone, there was a strong sense of confidence.
Wang Xu added from the side, “Our young master is exceptionally talented, following the path of the literary sage. He has already reached the Grade 8 Bright Heart Realm.”
This surprised Qin Feng quite a bit, and he beca even more curious about the other’s identity, “That’s truly impressive. I admire you.”
The young man in white nodded slightly and looked at Qin Feng. His appearance was not ordinary; he had a noble and elegant deanor. That was the first impression.
But what intrigued her more was what the servant girl had just ntioned: this person also followed the path of the Literature Qi and had transford Literature Qi into fingertip needles.
“I heard from my servant girl that Physician Qin also follows the path of the the Literature Saint Dao Lineage. May I inquire about your rank?”
“I am not that talented; I have just entered the ninth rank,” Qin Feng replied modestly.
Ya’an seed contemplative and spoke again, “Physician Qin pursues the way through dical arts, so it’s natural for progress to be slower.”
Qin Feng didn’t understand the implication and asked, “What do you an by pursuing the way through dical arts?” The books he had read previously hadn’t covered this topic.
“Didn’t your teacher ever teach you?” Ya’an seed sowhat puzzled.
“I don’t have a teacher. I entered the path of the Literature Saint Dao Lineage by chance,” Qin Feng explained. As these words left his mouth, Ya’an and the others all showed a hint of surprise in their eyes.
No wonder he pursued the way of the Literature Saint Dao Lineage through dical arts; it turned out he was self-taught. She shook her head slightly, a hint of regret in her eyes. Throughout history, those who entered the path of the the Literature Saint Dao Lineage through dical arts had never advanced beyond the fifth rank.
“Brother Ya’an, can you enlighten ?” Qin Feng asked earnestly.
Ya’an did not withhold anything and began to explain.
Literature Saint Dao Lineage is much slower to advance than Divine Martial and Hundred Ghosts. After all, morizing thousands of books in your mind requires years of accumulation.
Considering that applying knowledge and pioneering and innovating can quickly accumulate Literature Qi, the books and study directions of everyone who cultivates Literature Saint Dao Lineage are confird in advance.
Since ancient tis, most Literature Saint Daoists have chosen to study political and military books in order to beco officials in the court or beco military staff officers.
After all, entering the court to display your ambitions, serve the country and the people, strategize in the military and win lots of wars which will affect thousands of people. In this way, you can rapidly gain a large amount of Literature Qi and enhance your cultivation.
However, it was difficult for doctors to achieve this.
Most importantly, the path of the Literature Saint Dao Lineage had been passed down through generations, and ancestors had concluded that to reach the fourth rank of the Literature Saint Dao Lineage, one must be closely affiliated with the country.
