Chapter 21: Universal Love

  "Whatever, it's because I'm too softhearted. As a doctor, one should be compassionate and benevolent, saving the world and loving all living things..."

  Yang Fan's face was solemn and dignified, with a noble demeanor reminiscent of a legendary divine doctor.

  At this moment, he gradually felt that what "Xianhong Jue" advocated was an idea.

  "Brother Fan, you promised to save my master, he is really a good person."

  Tie Niu thanked him profusely, overjoyed.

  Nan Gong Yu promised: "As long as the Medicine Master can cure my injury, I will immediately offer a thousand taels of gold. If there are any other requirements, just mention them, and as long as Nan Gong Yu can do it, even if it means going through boiling water or walking through fire, I won't hesitate."

  Yang Fan shook his head and said, "I will cure your illness without inquiring about your good or evil character; as long as you are a human being, I can treat you. I will not do it for gold or wealth, but to save the world and love all living things."

  He heals people, of course he doesn't care about good or evil, nor does he care about these external things - what's important is that you can increase my cultivation.

  Upon hearing this, Tie Niu and Nan Gong Yu couldn't help but feel a deep sense of respect: In this world, there actually exists such a noble person, who heals the sick and saves lives without seeking any reward - what kind of spirit is this?

  "Pharmacist, please accept my bow." Nangong Yu was so moved that he sincerely bowed deeply to Yang Fan and said, "Regardless of whether the pharmacist can cure my illness or not, you are the person I admire most in this life."

  "Yes, Fang Ge, your selfless dedication makes me feel ashamed..."

  Tie Niu's eyes were slightly red, and he was very moved.

  Yang Fan shook his head again: "Wrong, I'm not selfless. I have paid out, and there must be a return."

  "Right! Right! Right!"

  Tie Niu and Nan Gong Yu nodded in unison, not daring to go against this seemingly childish idea, perhaps the Medicine Master had a higher level of ideological awareness...

  "Alright, Duke Nangong, take a seat and let me treat you."

  Yang Fan nodded slightly.

  Iron Cow hastily fetched a chair and asked Master to sit down.

  Yang Fan squatted down and placed his hand on Nangong Yu's broken leg.

  Tie Niu and Yang Hui Xin stood by, hardly daring to breathe a word, intently observing from the side.

  A wisp of intangible and mysterious power surged into Nan Gong Yu's body and extended to his fractured bones.

  Yang Fan let out a light sigh: "The bones in your legs were broken by a powerful technique with strong destructive power, and the bone quality at the fracture site has no vitality. Such injuries cannot be treated by ordinary doctors, and the master who caused such destructive power is also not an ordinary person."

  He then gazed at Nan Gong Yu.

  Nangong Yu's expression darkened, and he sighed: "The medicine master was right. The injuries on my body were inflicted by a powerful immortal master. He deliberately left me with one life, just to make me have a strong inner power, but suffer the torture of being a useless person. Before, I had found several famous doctors in the martial arts world, but they were powerless."

  Yang Fan curiously asked: "Who hurt you?"

  "Five hundred miles south of here, in a continuous chain of steep cliffs, there is a divine realm called 'Wu Pan Shan'. Occasionally, immortals ride the wind and pass by above. I had heard about this place long ago, so I snuck into this immortal realm to search for the legendary martial arts scriptures. In the end, not only did I fail to obtain the scriptures, but I was also beaten out of Wu Pan Shan by its master, leaving me with an incurable wound."

  Nangong Yu's face was tinged with a nostalgic hue as he murmured his tale.

  Yang Fan listened, and suddenly realized: "It turned out to be the 'Five Plate Sky Platform', where it is a large trading market for cultivators. Within this area of four or five thousand miles, they are all top-notch. However, this 'Five Plate Sky Platform' also has strict rules, cultivators below the Condensing Spirit stage are not allowed to enter without special permission. Once violated, they will be expelled and punished."

  "'Wu Pan Tian Tai', Yang had been there once before he lost his powers. As far as I know, this Tian Tai trading place is located in a treacherous and dangerous land, although it's not hidden by an illusionary array, but the surrounding several hundred feet are all bottomless deep abysses, how did Nan Gong Da Xia enter?"

  Yang Fan placed his hand on Nangong Yu's fractured leg, secretly using the "Jade Bone Technique" he had just learned last night. A warm and nourishing stream of life energy began to repair Nangong Yu's broken bones.

  Nangong Yu also felt some subtle changes and replied, "I'm most skilled in lightness kung fu, and with the help of that large eagle that has accompanied me for over a decade, I barely managed to enter the realm of immortals. But unfortunately, I ended up like this, and even my beloved eagle suffered at the hands of that immortal."

  "So that's how it is." Yang Fan said while treating Nangong Yu, "I've already taken a look earlier. Nangong doesn't have the talent for cultivating immortality, but seeing you spare no expense in seeking out martial arts secrets, it seems like you're quite yearning for the way of the immortals."

  "Yes, ordinary people, life is short, just a few decades, like a white horse passing through a gap, what kind of sadness and helplessness is this. Who doesn't want to live forever, seeking the way of immortality. Unfortunately, I don't have the talent for cultivating immortality, but I've heard that there's a martial arts path in the immortal world, suitable for me as a martial artist to cultivate. Therefore, I'll try every means to reach the realm of immortals, hoping to obtain the secrets of martial arts cultivation."

  "You want to blend in with the immortal realm, that's not wrong. Unfortunately, you have bad luck and found the 'Five Plate Sky Platform' this high-end trading market. The rest of the ordinary trading markets are mostly set up with obstacle magic. If you have skills, go to 'Yangjia Fortress' to try your luck. As long as it is a Yang family child or close relative, you can enter. If it's an outsider, you can also mix in by giving some silver coins to the gatekeeper."

  Yang Fan said, but in his heart he was secretly sighing: It's also strange that Nan Gong Yu was so unlucky to have found the "Wu Pan Tian Tai"…

  "Thank you, Master Pharmacist, I'm grateful beyond words. And please, don't address me as 'Southern Palace Great Hero', for in the eyes of an immortal master, a worldly hero is hardly worth mentioning. Why not just call me 'Brother Southern Palace'?"

  Nangong Yudao.

  "Alright, Nangong brother, you stand up and try walking with your feet."

  Yang Fan suddenly stood up and said to Nan Gong Yu.

  He himself closed his eyes, and the intangible and invisible stream of life in his body expanded several times, surging and circulating vigorously, allowing Yang Fan's body to undergo another baptism.

  In the depths of his being, that elusive thread of life transformed into a sprinkling of emerald mist, flowing through Yang Fan's body.

  "My...my leg can actually move now!"

  Nangong Yu let out a cry of surprise and tried it out lightly, then easily moved around in place.

  Then he started jogging slowly in another courtyard.

  "Alright, my leg is fine."

  Nangong Yu was overjoyed and rushed to Yang Fan's side, only to find that he was meditating with his eyes closed.

  Seeing this scene, he became even more moved, the Medicine Master must have used up a huge amount of magical power to treat his own leg injury.

  After a long while, Yang Fan finally opened his calm and peaceful eyes, took a light breath: "I have finished regulating my breath, I can continue to heal your severed meridians."

  Unconsciously, some imperceptible changes took place in Yang Fan's temperament.

  His face, once as calm as an ancient well without ripples, now had a hint of confidence and composure.

  A thread of emerald green mist floated inside his body, and in an instant it merged into the meridians, disappearing without a trace.

  Ku Mu Gong, he gathered all his aura and spiritual power to the extreme point, even if a cultivator with higher cultivation than him were to appear, they would not be able to detect anything.

  "In the Refining Qi period, I, Yang Fan, finally returned to the path of immortality..."

  Yang Fan's calm heart stirred up waves of ripples.

  In just two short days, he went from a useless cripple who had lost all his magical powers to returning to the path of cultivation.

  This is almost a miracle!

  "In the world of cultivation, there will eventually be a day when I rise again and make a name for myself..."

  Yang Fan calmed his heart, he had just entered the initial stage of Qi refining, his magical power was weak and still needed to be low-key.

  "Pharmacist, I saw that you just treated my injury and seemed to have consumed a lot of spiritual power. Why not wait until tomorrow..."

  Nangong Yu saw Yang Fan just finished adjusting his breath and was about to continue healing himself, and said with some reluctance.

  "Alright, Fang Ge, come back another day..."

  Tie Niu and Yang Hui Xin both felt a little unbearable.

  "Saving lives and helping people is a doctor's duty, no matter how bitter or tired I am, let me treat your pulse again..."

  Yang Fan's face was kind and gentle, smiling.

  As soon as they heard this, the three people on the scene were deeply moved.

  Even Lian Nangong Yu, an old Jianghu, was moved to tears.

  What is the doctor's mercy, saving the world and loving all living things?

  What is selfless dedication and altruistic spirit of benefiting others without any personal gain?

  This is a most typical example!

  At this moment, Yang Fan's image in the hearts of several people became extremely tall and was elevated to an unprecedented level.

  The first update is here, I want to laugh, summoning votes!
