Romantic Medical Immortal

Chapter 771: Chapter 771: Brilliant Sun Essence Gold

The next morning at dawn.

Yang Cheng stepped out of his room feeling refreshed, with a small Jade Bottle in his hand.

Cheng Qiyue followed behind him. There was still a faint blush on her cheeks, and her beautiful eyes shimmered with moisture, adding a few extra degrees of allure.

By the time the two of them arrived at Jiang Yu’s courtyard, Jiang Heping was already waiting there. Seeing them come, he immediately went up enthusiastically to greet them.

"Mr. Yang, did you rest well last night?"

"Very well."

Yang Cheng smiled slightly and gave Cheng Qiyue a somewhat meaningful glance. Her cheeks flushed and she shyly glared at him.

Only then did he withdraw his gaze and say, "Patriarch Jiang, take us to see Miss Jiang first."

"Alright."

Jiang Heping immediately led the way and brought the two of them into Jiang Yu’s bedroom.

At this moment Jiang Yu was still asleep. Her complexion looked a bit better than yesterday; at least it was no longer that deathly ashen pallor. But she was still painfully thin, looking as fragile as a newborn bird.

Yang Cheng walked to the bedside, activated his X-ray Vision, and carefully observed the condition of her body. As expected, that dark-red power was still roaming through her meridians, but because it was suppressed by his True Qi, it was much calmer than it had been yesterday.

"Patriarch Jiang, I’m going to have Miss Jiang take a certain medicine now. This medicine is used to test her physical condition and it may cause some adverse reactions. You don’t need to worry."

He explained in advance. Jiang Heping nodded again and again, indicating that he understood.

Seeing that Jiang Heping had no objections, Yang Cheng took out the Jade Bottle, then pinched Jiang Yu’s cheeks lightly and poured the essence into her cherry-like mouth. After that he stepped back to the side and waited quietly.

One minute, two minutes, five minutes...

Nearly half an hour passed and Jiang Yu showed no reaction at all. Under the influence of the essence, she even seemed to be sleeping more peacefully.

Yang Cheng frowned slightly. Had his guess been wrong?

Perhaps the power in Jiang Yu’s body was only similar to Zodiac Energy and wasn’t truly Source Energy.

"Mr. Yang, what’s wrong?"

Jiang Heping asked nervously.

"Nothing, I’ll examine her more carefully."

Yang Cheng gathered his thoughts, sat by the bed, and began to administer needles to Jiang Yu. Using a Silver Needle to pierce the acupoints to probe her internal condition was even more precise than X-ray Vision; even the faintest fluctuations couldn’t escape his eyes.

As the Silver Needle fell, the dark-red power in Jiang Yu’s body seemed to be startled and began to slowly surge. But it did not launch any attack; it merely approached in a probing manner, and did not cause Jiang Yu any harm.

Yang Cheng focused all his attention, condensed his True Qi into a single thread, followed the Silver Needle inward, and cautiously touched that power.

At the very instant the two made contact, Yang Cheng did not feel his True Qi fluctuating inside him. Instead, he felt as if his blood was boiling.

A storm surged in his heart, but nothing showed on his face. He continued administering the needles, feeling out and urging his True Qi to temporarily suppress that power inside Jiang Yu.

Half an hour later, he removed the needles and stood up, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"Mr. Yang, how is it?"

Jiang Heping asked impatiently.

Yang Cheng pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Patriarch Jiang, I’ll be honest with you. The test produced no reaction at all, which means I still haven’t fully identified the cause of the illness. I’ve only temporarily suppressed her condition."

"Then how can we test it out? Over these years I’ve searched everywhere for famous doctors, but all of them came up empty-handed. I really don’t understand how a daughter who was so healthy before could suddenly become critically ill, hanging on by a thread."

"I may not have done many good deeds in my life, but I’ve never done evil either. Why does this have to happen to my daughter!"

Jiang Heping choked up as he spoke. In front of Yang Cheng, he forcibly pressed down the emotions surging within him.

He took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Yang, I can tell you’re the real deal. It’s probably only you who can truly save my daughter, so there are some things I won’t hide from you anymore."

"After my daughter fell ill, we’ve always used Sun Essence Gold to maintain her vital signs. But later I discovered that even Sun Essence Gold could no longer stabilize her, so I spread the news to seek famous doctors for treatment."

"I thought about it for a long time last night. I know you’re in great need of Sun Essence Gold, so I’ve decided to hand the Sun Essence Gold over to you first. Once you have it, you won’t need to have any concerns—just do your utmost to save my daughter. Even if in the end we can’t preserve her life, I still hope she can stay in this world a little longer. Take it as the selfishness of me as a father."

After saying all this, Jiang Heping couldn’t help but shed tears.

Yang Cheng was utterly surprised, and his heart also felt a bit sour. This old father truly had painstaking intentions.

As for Cheng Qiyue, seeing this scene, her eyes couldn’t help turning red. She remembered her deceased parents; if they were still alive, they would surely love her this way too.

"Patriarch Jiang, this doesn’t match our previous agreement. We said that after curing Miss Jiang, you would give me the Sun Essence Gold."

Although Yang Cheng also wanted to get his hands on the Sun Essence Gold first, asking for something so precious before accomplishing anything really made him feel somewhat embarrassed.

Jiang Heping’s expression was full of appreciation as he said solemnly, "I’ve only known you for two days, but I can tell that your character is absolutely reliable. You’re sincerely treating Yu’s illness with all your heart. No wonder Elder Qin strongly recommended you back then."

"I, Jiang Heping, am not someone who fails to recognize good people. Yesterday you already displayed astonishing strength; I should show some sincerity as well."

As he spoke, he stood up and made a gesture of invitation. "Mr. Yang, please come with me."

Yang Cheng and Cheng Qiyue exchanged a glance, then quickly followed Jiang Heping out of the courtyard.

The three of them passed through several corridors and arrived at the Jiang Family’s back courtyard. Jiang Heping entered a room, removed a wall painting, and turned the switch hidden behind it.

With a rumbling sound, the wall slowly shifted aside, revealing a secret chamber in the very back.

"Mr. Yang, Miss Cheng."

Jiang Heping invited the two of them in. He walked down ahead of them, stopped before the door of the chamber, entered a code, and then verified his fingerprint and iris. Only then did the heavy metal door slowly open.

The secret room was not large, but all four walls were made of alloy. In the very center stood a transparent display case.

Inside the display case, a fist-sized piece of metal floated quietly.

The moment Yang Cheng saw it, he almost forgot to breathe.

The metal was a brilliant gold throughout, yet not an ordinary gold. It was as if the radiance of the sun had been solidified within it, emitting a dazzling, eye-searing light.

Liquid-like luster flowed across the metal’s surface, as though it were alive, ceaselessly shifting its halo. At times the light was as scorching as blazing flames, at times as gentle as the morning dawn, making it impossible to look away.

Even more wondrous was that, although there was clearly no light source in the chamber, the entire room was lit as bright as midday by this piece of metal, and the temperature in the air was a few degrees higher than outside.

"This is... Sun Essence Gold?"

Yang Cheng murmured.

"That’s right."

Jiang Heping nodded with a smile, a trace of reluctance flashing through his eyes.
