"You said that even Guild Leader Luo Chong was full of praises for him?"
"Du Miaoxuan even knelt for an entire day. When he left, not only was he in high spirits, his cultivation had even increased?"
"Looks like we have guessed wrongly. That Yang Xuan is definitely a true master teacher!"
"Only a true master teacher can make Du Miaoxuan kneel down willingly and earn Guild Leader Luo Chong's respect..."
"Hurry up and prepare a name card, I want to pay him a visit!"
"What? The Yang Residence refuses to meet anyone? If one wishes to meet Yang shi, one has to pay three million in gold notes, and it's non-refundable? "
"That's a good idea. Everyone wants to meet a master teacher. If he were to meet anyone, Yang shi wouldn't be able to do anything else. With a threshold, he would be able to stop those with ulterior motives..."
...
Such a situation occurred in almost all of the major clans in the capital.
Everyone was horrified.
Those who thought that Yang shi was a fraud fell silent.
...
After being unconscious for an unknown period of time, Zhang Xuan opened his eyes once more.
"This..."
Upon waking up, the first thing he felt was an innumerable amount of knowledge appearing in his mind. All of the books that were enveloped by the golden book previously had been imprinted in his mind.
"This golden book can convert the knowledge in the Library of Heaven's Path into mine?"
Zhang Xuan was filled with disbelief.
In the past, he could only flip through the books in the Library of Heaven's Path, so the knowledge within was still in the books and not imprinted in his mind. But now, all of the knowledge was imprinted in his mind, becoming a part of his memories.
In other words, even if he didn't use the Library of Heaven's Path, he already had a clear understanding of pill forging and cultivation. He was a true apothecary.
"Where is that golden book?"
Focusing his attention, Zhang Xuan hurriedly looked at the Library of Heaven's Path. The golden book was still there, but when he flipped it open, it was empty. The only blank page had disappeared.
"This..."
Zhang Xuan blinked his eyes in shock.
The disappearance of the golden page and the sudden acquisition of so much knowledge, it seemed like the golden page did have such an effect.
"I wonder how this golden book was formed. This method of converting knowledge is simply too fast …"
Originally, even if the speed of learning in the Library of Heaven's Path was very fast, it would take at least a few months to memorize all of the hundreds of thousands of books that had been collected over the past few days. But now, with a single flash of light from the golden page, all of the books had become his own knowledge, making it extremely easy to learn.
"Hmm? He actually fainted for an entire night? "
Waking up from the joy of obtaining knowledge, he looked outside and could not help but be speechless. He had fainted for an entire night.
Just as he was about to look for something to eat, he saw the butler, Sun Qiang, walk in.
"Master, the Alchemist Guild's Guild Leader Ouyang Cheng and Alchemist Chen Xiao are here to pay you a visit."
"Ouyang Cheng? Apothecary Chen Xiao? "Zhang Xuan was stunned.
He was currently Master Teacher Yang Xuan, not Apothecary Zhang Xuan. He didn't know the other party at all, so why was he here?
"That's right. Furthermore … they have been waiting outside for four hours!" Sun Qiang said speechlessly.
This old master sure can sleep. He went back as soon as the sky turned dark yesterday and only woke up when the sun was high in the sky today … Just the thought of it made him want to faint.
Not daring to disturb them, he could only tell the other party that the old master was resting. Who knew that the two of them would not allow him to disturb them and instead wait outside for four hours … They sure have some stamina.
"Master, Apothecary Chen Xiao has already handed over the three million gold coins. Do you …"
"Let them in!" Zhang Xuan gestured.
Sun Qiang walked out. Not too long later, Guild Leader Ouyang and Apothecary Chen Xiao walked in.
"Paying respect to Yang shi!"
Not daring to put on airs, the two of them walked into the room and bowed.
Apothecary Chen Xiao wanted to come over himself, but after thinking about it, he felt that his reputation was lacking. Thus, he dragged Ouyang Cheng along as well.
"There's no need to stand on ceremony. For the two of you to look for me so early in the morning, if I'm not wrong, it should be because … Apothecary Chen Xiao doesn't have much time left and is looking for a solution!"
Zhang Xuan was perplexed as to why the two of them would come here. Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind and he recalled something.
This Chen Xiao was surrounded by the death aura of the curse and he didn't have much time left. Previously, during the Pill Debate, he felt that the other party was a traitor and wasn't worth saving. Thus, he didn't say anything. Most probably, this fellow couldn't find a solution and came over upon hearing that a master teacher had appeared.
This was good as well. He could make him bleed and take revenge for the person who entrusted him with the mission.
He suddenly recalled that when Ouyang Cheng and Apothecary Chen Xiao heard those words, they nearly kneeled down in fright and fainted on the spot.
Don't master teachers have to practice battle techniques or forge pills first? At the very least, they have to take one's pulse before they can see the root of the problem?
Why did they say it the moment they met ….
Is this still a discerning eye? Even fortune-telling isn't this incredible!
At the same time, Apothecary Chen Xiao's face paled and he felt anxious.
To be able to see through it with a single look, how serious is my illness?
Would he not be able to survive until tomorrow?
"Where's the cauldron? Did you throw it away? Also, if you don't fulfill your promise to others and think that the other party is dead, don't you think that it is a disgrace to your identity as an apothecary? "
Not seeing the shocked expression of the duo, Zhang Xuan recalled the contents of the book and continued.
Seeing that no one replied, he lifted his head and saw that Ouyang Cheng and Apothecary Chen Xiao had turned pale, as though they had been petrified.
Especially the latter, his entire body was convulsing. Unable to hold it in any longer, his knees gave way and he knelt to the floor.
"Yang shi, save me …. I beg of you, Yang shi, save me …."
Apothecary Chen Xiao was scared out of his wits.
No one knew that he had obtained a cauldron. Back then, even Zhang Xuan had only deduced that he had obtained a treasure from the corpse of a dead person. Yet, the young man before him actually spoke of it without even checking his pulse or looking at the person before him …
Are you a deity?
Otherwise …. How did you know ….
"Is what Yang shi said true?"
Even though Ouyang Cheng didn't know how Apothecary Chen Xiao came into contact with the aura of death, upon seeing his expression, he knew that there was nothing wrong with what Yang shi said.
He couldn't help but feel admiration for the other party.
Without needing to do anything, with just a look, he was able to deduce the illness and cause of the illness …. That was unbelievable!
"Er …."
Seeing their shocked expressions, Zhang Xuan recalled that he was Master Teacher Yang Xuan and didn't recognize the two of them. Clearing his throat to conceal his awkwardness, he said, "Saving you is simple. First, bury the cauldron together with your friend. Then, complete the task that he entrusted to you …. Finally, get some pills with sufficient spiritual energy to consume. After recuperating for half a year, you should be fine!"
Actually, it wasn't difficult to solve the other party's problem. He wasn't really dying, but he was cursed. As long as he completed the task seriously and didn't come into contact with the cauldron, the power of the curse would weaken and he would recover in time.
"Thank you, Yang shi, for your guidance!"
Hearing that he could be saved, Apothecary Chen Xiao hurriedly nodded without any doubt.
To be able to see through the crux of the illness with a single look, he was definitely able to solve it.
Knowing the solution, there was no need for the two of them to stay any longer. Thus, they turned around and left.
Even after walking out of the door, Apothecary Chen Xiao still felt as if he was dreaming.
The matter that made him so worried for the past few days that he didn't hesitate to sell his assets and move his entire family …. was solved just like that?
"There's no need to think too much about it. A single word from a master teacher is worth a thousand gold. Even though his words sounded simple, he was actually able to find the right remedy for the illness. It's impossible for others to imitate his words!"
Seeing the doubt in the other party's eyes, Ouyang Cheng glanced behind him in admiration and remarked.
… … …
Apothecary Chen Xiao and Guild Leader Ouyang Cheng had also entered the courtyard. After which, their exit became the matter of utmost concern to the various powers.
"These two apothecaries didn't even enter for five minutes before leaving? Could it be that there's a problem that they haven't solved yet? Investigate this matter carefully. See what kind of problem these two apothecaries encountered that required them to consult a master teacher! "
"You're saying that … Apothecary Chen Xiao had already held a funeral at home and even wrote a will, intending to sell off his assets …. After returning from meeting Yang shi, he immediately changed the white cloth to red and celebrated as though nothing had happened?"
"Suffering from a chronic illness, he could die at any moment. Yet, after meeting Yang shi for less than five minutes, he was able to resolve his illness …."
"Looks like we were all wrong. The most we know is the title and reputation of a 1-star master teacher. Given how incredible this Yang shi is …. Could it be that he has already surpassed 1-star?"
"Beyond 1-star master teacher?"
When the news spread, the entire city was shocked.
Today, the name of Yang Xuan — —
Resounding throughout the entire city.
