Peerless Medical Emperor

Chapter 113: Correcting the Meridians

Upon reaching the second floor, they found the Spiritual Energy wasn’t dense at all—in fact, it was even thinner than on the first. This left Wang Yingcai feeling rather dissatisfied.

Still, there was some, which was better than nothing.

Wang Yingcai quickly absorbed all the Spiritual Energy on this floor as well.

Once she was finished, Wang Yingcai nodded in satisfaction.

"Excellent, excellent! Not bad at all!"

Wang Yingcai said.

"Now that we’ve used this Spiritual Energy to realign your meridians, that unhealthy craving of yours shouldn’t trouble you anymore,"

Chen Qingdi said.

"Really?"

Wang Yingcai exclaimed happily.

"Of course. Why would I lie to you?"

"However, you should personally oversee the food and drink in your household from now on."

"In any case, be careful."

Chen Qingdi reminded her.

"Alright."

Wang Yingcai nodded.

After leaving the small building, Chen Qingdi didn’t accompany the elderly Wu Family couple back to their home.

"You two head back. I’m going straight home from here."

"My home is very close by."

Chen Qingdi said.

"I was planning to host a banquet in your honor, but it seems you won’t be attending,"

Elder Wu said.

"There’s no need for such formalities between us."

"You should go. If you need anything in the future, you can find me."

Chen Qingdi said to Elder Wu.

"Alright."

Elder Wu nodded and soon departed with Wang Yingcai.

After Elder Wu and his wife were a good distance away, Chen Qingdi, who had been about to leave, suddenly sensed a fluctuation. A Spiritual Qi Source in the area had just stirred.

Naturally, Chen Qingdi stayed behind.

After getting into the car, Elder Wu drove toward the Wu Family estate.

"That Mr. Chen is really something else,"

"To think he could cure such a strange ailment of mine."

Wang Yingcai said with a smile.

"You should have let Mr. Chen examine you when he came last time. Instead, you drove him away."

"I must say, Mr. Chen is truly a benefactor to the Wu Family, our very own lucky star."

"I think we should strengthen our ties with Mr. Chen from now on,"

Elder Wu said.

"I agree. I have a feeling he’s a man of great destiny."

"You said he fought off your would-be assassins. Does that mean his cultivation is at the Guiyuan Realm or higher?"

Wang Yingcai asked.

"I think he’s at least a Master,"

"Perhaps even a Grandmaster."

Elder Wu said.

"In that case, we must win Mr. Chen over to our side, don’t you think?"

"We could offer him the highest position in our Wu Family—that of a Tributor. What do you think?"

Wang Yingcai looked at Elder Wu.

"I think we can try. But for an expert like him, skilled in both medicine and martial arts to a degree ordinary people can’t even fathom, I fear getting him to join us will be extremely difficult,"

Elder Wu said.

"Regardless, we have to try. At the very least, we must ensure he remains our friend,"

Wang Yingcai said.

"Yes, I think so too. On another note, regarding your condition... what are your thoughts? There’s a problem within our family."

"We need to find this person as soon as possible,"

Elder Wu said.

"You don’t need to worry about that,"

"Worst comes to worst, I’ll just play along and beat them at their own game."

"I’ll lure out whoever in the Wu Family is trying to harm me."

The matriarch of the Wu Family seemed to have a plan already.

"If it weren’t for Mr. Chen, we would never have known things in the Wu Family had gotten to this point... that someone would even try to harm you,"

Elder Wu said, his face flushed with anger.

"You need to be careful too. With your cultivation gone, you’re an even easier target,"

the matriarch said, her eyes fixed on Wu Jinfeng.

"I will be careful. The Wu Family cannot be allowed to fall apart on our watch,"

Elder Wu said.

"Let’s go. It’s time we went home. We’ve been gone so long, the family servants will start to worry,"

the matriarch of the Wu Family said.

"Alright."

Elder Wu nodded.

He then sped off in the car, heading toward the Wu Family estate.

Meanwhile, Chen Qingdi was strolling through the park. He didn’t rush directly toward the spot where the Spiritual Energy was surging, because he now sensed a faint, intermittent killing intent nearby.

This piqued Chen Qingdi’s curiosity. ’Could it be Zhao Quanzhang and his men again?’ he wondered.

And so, Chen Qingdi slowly walked toward the source of the killing intent.

Upon reaching the area where the killing intent was concentrated, Chen Qingdi stopped.

"Who’s there?"

"Come on out. No need to hide."

Chen Qingdi called out.

As Chen Qingdi spoke, several figures emerged from the shadows.

Their gazes fell upon Chen Qingdi.

And Chen Qingdi looked back at them.

Chen Qingdi could tell that each of them was more formidable than the last.

The weakest among them was at the First Level of the Guiyuan Realm.

The strongest, meanwhile, was even more powerful than Chen Yuan—a full Fourth-Level Guiyuan cultivator.

"And who might you be?"

The strongest of the group stepped forward. He was dressed in coarse linen, but his gaze was resolute.

He watched Chen Qingdi with a cold expression.

"Chen Qingdi."

After he introduced himself, Chen Qingdi saw the man’s eyes fill with killing intent.

"And who might you be?"

Chen Qingdi asked.

"Zhang Hengyuan, from Di Lin Hall."

Zhang Hengyuan stated coldly.

Di Lin Hall. This was the second time Chen Qingdi had heard that name since arriving.

This Di Lin Hall was a terrifying organization.

’But why would they be here?’

’Could they be after the Natural Spiritual Energy as well?’

’If so, a bitter fight might be unavoidable.’

But Chen Qingdi didn’t see them as a threat.

Dealing with them would be a simple matter.

"I wonder, Zhang, what brings you here?"

Chen Qingdi asked.

"What do you think? Don’t play dumb. It’s pointless."

Zhang Hengyuan said.

"I imagine it’s because a Spiritual Qi Source has appeared here."

"You wanted to come and investigate."

Chen Qingdi said, looking at the man.

"Yes."

Zhang Hengyuan nodded slightly.

"We can cooperate, you know."

"The Spiritual Qi Source is in this area, but it seems to be sealed by something."

"Perhaps it’s underground. What do you think?"

Chen Qingdi said, looking at Zhang Hengyuan.

"That’s a possibility."

Zhang Hengyuan hadn’t expected Chen Qingdi to have such a deep understanding of these matters.

"Then let’s cooperate. If the Spiritual Qi Source is indeed underground, I suspect there might be two or three of them."

"Why don’t we look for an entrance first? What do you say?"

Chen Qingdi said to Zhang Hengyuan.

"Alright."

Zhang Hengyuan said.

The two of them then began to search the area in earnest.
