Chapter 1388: Chapter 1387: Visiting Hua Mansion

Before long, Chen Tianlong arrived at the foot of the mountain, planning to head back. However, as he turned around, someone came bouncing towards him. Chen Tianlong thought it was a villain and quickly executed a backflip to grab the person in a reversed hold.

"Ah! That hurts so much."

Gu Yuxin initially wanted to trick Chen Tianlong, but ended up being tricked herself, leaving her quite upset.

"Ah!"

This time, it was Chen Tianlong’s turn to be surprised. He never expected his attacker to be Gu Yuxin. He smiled wryly and said, "Why were you hiding behind me? I thought it was a bad guy, so I..."

"Humph, you really don’t know how to be gentle, making me hurt like this." Gu Yuxin pouted, glaring at Chen Tianlong with a playful scold.

"Alright, alright, I’m sorry, it was my fault for hurting Miss Gu. I will apologize right away." He said as he deliberately clasped his hands and bowed apologetically.

"Huh, spare me that. I don’t want to shorten my life." Gu Yuxin rolled her eyes at Chen Tianlong with playful annoyance.

Seeing her adorable demeanor, Chen Tianlong didn’t tease her any further. He abruptly asked in a serious tone, "Yuxin, why did you follow me? I thought I asked you to look after Mengting?"

"Uh, the Divine Doctor Hua Sai said, as long as Wu Mengting is lying in bed and given some water to drink every day, that’ll be fine. He said it’s simple, and he’d help feed her, telling me to go out for a walk and not to hold it in." Gu Yuxin replied, looking down and avoiding Chen Tianlong’s eyes.

"Oh? Are you sure it was the Divine Doctor who told you to come out? It seems to me more like you begged him to let you out." Chen Tianlong, adept in reading people, wasn’t fooled by Gu Yuxin’s intentions.

"Alright, fine, I just couldn’t hold it in and wanted to come out and play." After making a silly face, Gu Yuxin bounced ahead cheerfully.

Chen Tianlong shook his head, chuckled bitterly, and felt helpless – his father only tasked him with taking care of her, not controlling her. So the two of them quickly embarked on their return journey.

Of course, after walking for a while, Chen Tianlong summoned the giant eagle and, flying swiftly back home, they made remarkable time.

Returning was fast. Thanks to the giant eagle, Chen Tianlong didn’t have to expend his own strength and reached outside the Capital City within an hour of flying.

Chen Tianlong chose to land outside the city for a reason. Otherwise, flying into the Capital City with a giant eagle carrying two people would cause quite a stir. After dismounting from Xiaogu, they walked away.

"Whoa, Chen Tianlong, is this giant eagle your mount?" Gu Yuxin couldn’t quite believe it; how did such a phenomenal creature come to be tamed by Chen Tianlong?

"Hehe, believe it or not, it’s up to you." Chen Tianlong dismissed her with a line, then walked straight into the city.

"Hey, if you won’t tell me, fine, but why leave me behind? Can’t you be a bit considerate?" Gu Yuxin grumbled as she followed.

Chen Tianlong ignored her. Right now, his mind was occupied with Mengting’s condition. It was already the second evening, and getting back sooner was better. Gu Yuxin, understanding Chen Tianlong’s intentions, quickly followed without further complaint, heading to Divine Doctor Hua Sai’s clinic.

At that moment, Hua Sai was attending to patients. Seeing Chen Tianlong return, he immediately stood up and said, "It’s getting late; let’s wrap up for the day."

The crowd gradually dispersed, and shortly after, Chen Tianlong approached.

"Did you get everything?"

Hua Sai was obviously astonished. Chen Tianlong managed to gather those items in such a short time; it was quite incredible. But the next moment, Chen Tianlong took out the two items from his empty sack, leaving Hua Sai utterly speechless.

"Divine Doctor, let’s go save Mengting quickly." Seeing Hua Sai stunned, Chen Tianlong prompted.

"Ah? Okay."

Hua Sai snapped out of his surprise and quickly led them into the secret chamber, where Wu Mengting still lay quietly on the ice bed.

"Brother Chen Tianlong, please wait a moment. I need to process the wolf gall before administering it to her." Hua Sai said.

"Alright, thank you so much, Divine Doctor." Chen Tianlong respectfully clasped his hands and replied.

"No need for thanks; it’s an obligation of a healer."

Hua Sai smiled faintly and turned to handle the medicine.

Before long, Hua Sai returned with two large pills, still feeling warm yet exuding a cold chill – rather magical. However, Chen Tianlong knew these medicines were exceptional divine pill leads, so he didn’t overthink it.

Quickly, Hua Sai administered the pills to Wu Mengting and had her drink the special Soul Reviving Potion. About half an hour later, Wu Mengting’s fingers moved, then she started coughing. Chen Tianlong hurriedly supported her.

At that moment, Wu Mengting suddenly spat out a big mouthful of bloody water, collapsing weakly into Chen Tianlong’s arms again.

"Divine Doctor, why is Wu Mengting like this?" Chen Tianlong, startled and worried, asked.

"Haha, Brother Chen Tianlong, don’t worry. If this hadn’t happened, that would have been a problem. This indicates the medicine is working, expelling all stagnant blood from her body." Hua Sai leisurely explained with a smile.

"Oh? So that’s what it is."

Chen Tianlong breathed a sigh of relief and gently rubbed Wu Mengting’s back, helping her regulate her Qi.

Soon, Wu Mengting slowly opened her eyes. In her daze, her first sight was Chen Tianlong’s worried expression, filling her heart with warmth.

"Chen Tianlong," Wu Mengting’s voice was a bit weak, after all, she had just recovered from a serious illness.

"Mengting, you’re awake," Chen Tianlong was obviously very happy and then smiled at her gently.

"Yes."

Wu Mengting was somewhat powerless, so she simply responded. In her heart, there were countless words she wanted to say. She originally thought she would die, but unexpectedly, she could see Chen Tianlong’s face again, feeling very happy at this moment.

"I’m so hungry, Chen Tianlong."

Wu Mengting suddenly felt extremely hungry, which wasn’t surprising since she hadn’t eaten for two days. How could she not be hungry?

"Hehe, Miss Mengting, I’ve already instructed my wife to prepare dinner; please come to my mansion to dine," Hua Sai said with a faint smile.

"Ah? Divine Doctor Hua, you have another house?" Chen Tianlong only now learned that Hua Sai had a large mansion.

"Yes, it’s just around the corner of the street ahead, about a hundred meters forward. This is only my pharmacy; I also have a wife and children," Hua Sai explained.

"Oh, I see."

"Alright, you help Miss Wu Mengting, let’s go together," he said, leading the three young ones to the Hua Mansion.

Indeed, the Hua Mansion was nearby, and soon the four arrived at the grand courtyard of the Hua Family. It looked noble and upscale; it turned out Hua Sai belonged to a prestigious family. Driven by his passion for medicine, he opened a clinic to benefit the people.

Hua Sai’s medical skills were among the top in the Capital City. Although he didn’t display his full prowess this time, the methods he knew showed he was no ordinary person.

"By the way, Divine Doctor Hua, I hear your medical skills are excellent. I’d like to be your disciple and learn some skills for future use," Chen Tianlong said admiringly. After this case, he felt his medical skills hadn’t reached the pinnacle, with many illnesses leaving him helpless.

Especially when some advanced practitioners suffered severe internal injuries, his powerful Qi couldn’t revive them.

"Hehe, Brother Chen Tianlong, you truly want to learn?" Hua Sai suddenly asked.

"Yes, I really do, but I’m naturally dull and don’t know if I have any talent for medicine," Chen Tianlong said with a bit of insecurity.

"Hehe, if you want to know whether you have talent, you can try later, but medicine depends not only on talent. The most crucial aspect is postnatal effort, research in pharmacology, and grasping the essence of medicine," Hua Sai said.

"Yes, understood, Divine Doctor Hua," Chen Tianlong humbly listened and learned.

At this time, the four had already entered the Hua Mansion. The gatekeeper saw the master had returned and quickly greeted, "Greetings, Master."

Hua Sai smiled at the servant. Chen Tianlong noticed that the Divine Doctor treated his servants kindly, unlike some masters who were domineering and unyielding.

Soon, a woman in her forties came out of the courtyard, appearing dignified yet gentle; evidently, this was Lady Hua.

Lady Hua walked over, smiling, "Hehe, are you the friends my husband mentioned? You must be hungry; please come to the hall."

"Lady Hua, you’re too kind."

Chen Tianlong felt a bit overwhelmed by the reception; they rescuers were treated so hospitably.

"Hehe, Brother Chen Tianlong, there’s no need to be formal. I’ve told my wife about your deeds, and we all respect your chivalry, daring to scale mountains and traverse seas for friends," Hua Sai said with a smile.

"Yes, Brother Chen Tianlong, your feelings and virtues towards Miss Wu Mengting are profound, risking life to seek medicine," Lady Hua quickly added, expressing her admiration for Chen Tianlong.

At this moment, Wu Mengting’s face turned red, but knowing all that Chen Tianlong did for her made her heart sweet and filled with happiness.

"Well, these are all things I should do. Mengting is my fiancée, and for her, I’ll face any difficulties," Chen Tianlong said softly.

"Alright, let’s go eat, shall we?"

At this point, Gu Yuxin began to feel jealous, watching the two converse, making her heart sour for no apparent reason.

Gu Yuxin’s sudden action surprised everyone; she quickly explained, "Hey, everyone, don’t misunderstand. I mean I’m starving too much and want to eat."

"Haha, is that so? Okay, I’ve been so focused on talking that I forgot about eating," Hua Sai said while leading them to the hall.

Soon, everyone gathered around the dining table, faced with a large feast that almost made Chen Tianlong drool. With various delicacies on display, it was clear Lady Hua put a lot of effort into it.

"Everyone, eat more; I cooked all of these myself."

Lady Hua said, feeling a bit proud.

"Hehe, alright, in that case, I won’t hold back," Gu Yuxin quickly said.

Chen Tianlong glared at her, but she pretended not to see, so Chen Tianlong could only smile wryly, saying, "Lady Hua has excellent culinary skills; it seems we’re in for a treat tonight."

With that said, everyone began to eat. Before long, most dishes on the table were finished. After they were well-fed, Hua Sai suddenly asked, "Brother Chen Tianlong, did you say you wanted to study medicine?"
