“You… Hello, I’m Xiaotong’s mother, Cheng Shufen. If you don’t mind, just call me Sister Shufen,” Cheng Shufen said, rubbing her hands together in nervousness.
“Thank you and your daughter for taking care of my husband,” Liu Ruyan said with a meaningful undertone.
Cheng Shufen’s cheeks flushed even redder as she said nervously, “We… we’re just doing it out of gratitude…”
“Alright, that’s enough. I’m starving,” Li Qianfan said as he abruptly snatched the food bucket from Cheng Shufen’s hands and motioned for Liu Ruyan to eat with him.
Liu Ruyan, however, said sarcastically, “This was specially brought for you. How could I possibly join in?”
“Can you stop with the attitude, please? Just eat. It’s their kind gesture, after all,” Li Qianfan replied.
Only then did Liu Ruyan finally sit down beside Li Qianfan and enjoy the homemade dishes prepared by Cheng Shufen together with him.
After finishing lunch, Li Qianfan went back to treating patients.
Meanwhile, Liu Ruyan and Li Xiaotong stayed by his side, assisting him whenever necessary.
Cheng Shufen had to tend to her store, so she left, taking the empty food bucket with her.
By the third day, the number of people seeking treatment had surged, with even patients from other cities coming from afar, drawn by his growing reputation.
Li Qianfan’s deeds had gone viral and become a trending topic on the internet, causing a massive stir.
“Today is the last day. Starting tomorrow, I won’t be here to treat anyone anymore. Those in need should hurry up and get in line,” Li Qianfan announced loudly.
Hearing this, people scrambled frantically to queue up for a chance to be seen by him, creating a spectacular scene.
Treating so many people required Li Qianfan to consume a significant amount of True Qi. Given the overwhelming demand, his True Qi depletion rate was astonishingly high.
Fortunately, Li Qianfan had recently advanced to the Foundation Establishment Realm, giving him more than ten times the True Qi he had before—otherwise, he would have been unable to keep up.
Still, after several hours of continuous treatments, fatigue began to show on Li Qianfan’s face.
“Do you need a break?” Liu Ruyan asked gently, using a towel to wipe the sweat from his brow.
Li Xiaotong quickly walked over with a cup of warm water in hand, placing it in Li Qianfan’s grasp as she said, “Brother Li, have some water.”
“Thank you.”
After taking a sip, Li Qianfan turned to Liu Ruyan and said, “I’m fine, really. I can hold on a little longer. Besides, it’s the last day anyway. Just two or three more hours of effort, and we can call it a wrap. I definitely won’t be coming back tomorrow.”
With that, he turned back around and called out, “Next.”
A woman immediately took a seat in front of him, saying, “Divine Doctor Li, I’ve recently been experiencing some chest pain. Could you take a look for me?”
“Chest pain?”
Li Qianfan hesitated briefly before raising his hand and placing it on the young woman’s prominent chest.
A warm, soft sensation filled his palm instantly, causing Li Qianfan’s thoughts to wander slightly.
Moreover, the young woman was exceptionally stunning. Her oval face and big eyes exuded an irresistibly seductive allure.
But with Liu Ruyan watching nearby, Li Qianfan didn’t dare act recklessly.
He quickly adjusted his expression, suppressing his stray thoughts, and fully focused on controlling his True Qi.
Pure Dragon Phoenix True Energy surged from Li Qianfan’s palm, flowing into the young woman’s chest and circulating throughout her body.
After approximately half a minute, a hint of surprise crossed Li Qianfan’s face.
He discovered that this woman wasn’t an ordinary person but a cultivator. Though her cultivation level wasn’t very high—merely the Qi Refining Realm Fifth Level—there was no question about her identity as a cultivator.
Furthermore, the woman wasn’t actually ill; she had injured her meridians due to a slight mishap during her cultivation, causing her True Qi to flow backward.
“Miss, you’re quite remarkable,” Li Qianfan remarked.
“Divine Doctor Li, you’re pretty extraordinary, too. No wonder you have such exceptional medical skills—turns out you’re also…” the seductive woman said with a playful smile, her enchanting eyes fixed intently on Li Qianfan.
Li Qianfan coughed twice before stating, “Your injury isn’t serious. There’s no need for me to treat you. Rest for a few days, and you’ll be fine.”
“No, Divine Doctor Li, please help me recover. I’m sure I’ll heal much faster with your assistance,” the seductive woman pleaded.
Nearby, Liu Ruyan’s brows were already tightly furrowed.
Noticing this, Li Qianfan sent her a Divine Thought Transmission: “Ruyan, this woman is a cultivator. She’s at the Qi Refining Realm Fifth Level.”
“She’s a cultivator? Did she come to you for treatment with ulterior motives?” Liu Ruyan asked through Divine Thought Transmission.
“I’m not sure yet. I haven’t detected any malicious intent,” Li Qianfan replied.
Liu Ruyan said sharply, “Then hurry up, treat her, and make her leave.”
Not daring to waste any more time, Li Qianfan immediately utilized the Illusion Sky Cloud Hand. Through this advanced massage technique, he began to nourish the woman’s meridians.
Unexpectedly, the seductive woman let out a delicate moan, her cheeks flushing a deep red.
“Divine Doctor Li, your medical skills are truly remarkable. Your massage technique feels so wonderful…” she murmured in a sultry tone.
“Can you shut up? Are you doing this on purpose to provoke me?” Li Qianfan rebuked her angrily.
“How could I possibly be provoking you? I genuinely came for treatment,” the seductive woman said, laughing coquettishly. Her charm was almost overwhelming.
Suppressing his inner agitation, Li Qianfan sped up his massage movements.
After two or three minutes, her damaged meridians had mostly recovered. Although they weren’t entirely healed, they were no longer an issue.
Retracting his True Qi and withdrawing his hand, Li Qianfan said, “Your injury has been treated.”
“Thank you, Divine Doctor Li,”
The seductive woman stood up gracefully, casting Li Qianfan a flirtatious glance as she said, “Divine Doctor Li, my name is Zhou Zitong. We’ll meet again.”
“Get lost,” Li Qianfan snapped irritably.
Were Liu Ruyan not around, Li Qianfan wouldn’t have minded getting closer to this tantalizing woman.
After all, who would reject such temptation willingly?
But with Liu Ruyan present, it was an entirely different matter. No matter how reckless Li Qianfan might be, he wasn’t going to flirt with such a seductive vixen in front of his wife.
Zhou Zitong’s appearance was merely a brief interlude. Once she left, peace was restored.
Li Qianfan continued treating patients tirelessly, with nothing noteworthy happening afterward.
As evening fell, the lights in the courtyard lit up, illuminating the area.
Standing up, Li Qianfan declared, “Alright, that’s it for today. I won’t be coming back tomorrow.”
“Divine Doctor Li, please don’t do this!”
