Early in the morning, a ray of gentle sunlight shone through the glass, illuminating the dark room.
Just as the light in the room grew stronger, the unconscious Bai Xishan's eyebrows twitched. Then, his tightly shut eyes slowly opened.
"Grandfather, you're awake. You're finally awake."
Bai Xiya, who was guarding by his side, could no longer hold back the tears in her eyes when she saw Bai Xishan, who had been unconscious for more than ten days, finally wake up. She threw herself at the bedside and cried out emotionally.
"Xiya, who saved me?"
Bai Xishan asked weakly as he gradually regained consciousness when he saw Bai Xiya crying her eyes out.
"Grandfather, it was Master Chen who saved you." Bai Xiya said as she wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes.
"Master Chen? Are there any Imperial Physicians with the surname Chen in the Imperial City? "Bai Xishan asked doubtfully.
In his opinion, the person who could save him from the gates of hell was most likely an Imperial Physician.
"Father, the person who saved you wasn't an Imperial Physician, but a young man with an unfamiliar face." Bai Jiangshui continued.
"What, a young man? How old is he? "Bai Xishan raised his eyebrows as his heart was in turmoil.
"Uh, that Master Chen should be around twenty years old. His medical skills are the best I've ever seen. He only used an hour to save you from the gates of hell." Because Ye Chenfeng was wearing a human skin mask, Bai Jiangshui could only make a vague guess. However, even he felt that it was ridiculous after saying it.
"Around twenty years old and possessing medical skills that surpass an Imperial Physician. Could that person be from an illusory sect?" Bai Xishan's snow-white eyebrows twitched slightly as he muttered to himself.
Sects were existences that surpassed the secular imperial authority. Those high and mighty sects in the Fighting Spirit Continent could influence the rise and fall of a country.
"Sects! That's right. Only a genius from a sect could have such godly medical skills. "Bai Jiangshui's eyes lit up as he agreed.
"Jiangshui, is that Divine Physician still in the residence?" Bai Xishan asked as he sat up with Bai Xiya's help.
"He left after getting his reward last night. We couldn't keep him." Bai Jiangshui said somewhat regretfully, "Fortunately, I doubled the reward and more or less formed a good relationship with him."
If Ye Chenfeng really came from a sect, it was definitely worth it for the Bai Family to befriend him at all costs.
"It's good to form some good karma." Bai Xishan nodded and said, "Jiangshui, Shiya, when you have nothing to do, go to the city and walk around. If you see that genius doctor again, you must invite him back."
"Alright!" Bai Jiangshui and his daughter nodded.
Just as the Bai Family's father and daughter were looking for Ye Chenfeng's whereabouts with hope, Lian Sanjun, who had suffered a great loss and lost face, was also looking for him.
However, the father and daughter of the Bai Family were looking for Ye Chenfeng to repay a debt of gratitude, while Lian Sanjun was looking for revenge.
Forests, deep ponds, cranes, late autumn …
Early the next morning, Ye Chenfeng, who had recovered his true body, spent nearly one hundred and eighty thousand taels of silver to purchase sixteen low-grade soul crystals and entered the Baiyun Mountain Range to cultivate.
Beside a quiet pond in the depths of the Baiyun Mountain Range, Ye Chenfeng held two milky-white low-grade soul crystals in his hand, circulating the Soul Devouring Tactic at high speed to devour and cultivate.
After an unknown period of time, the sound of two crystals shattering suddenly rang out. The two low-grade soul crystals in Ye Chenfeng's hand lost their luster and turned into powder, falling through the gaps between his fingers and falling to the ground.
"Peak rank one spirit beast, my physical strength has increased by ten percent." Sensing the changes in his body, Ye Chenfeng revealed a faint smile. He took out another two precious low-grade soul crystals and continued to circulate the Soul Devouring Tactic to devour and cultivate.
Streams of pure soul power rushed into Ye Chenfeng's body like an unstoppable tide and were devoured by the blood egg in his soul.
As the blood egg devoured more and more soul power, a crack appeared on the surface of the blood egg. When this crack became clearer, a powerful soul power gushed out from the blood egg and broke through the bottleneck in one fell swoop, breaking through to the second rank spirit beast realm.
The instant Ye Chenfeng's cultivation broke through, he opened his tightly shut eyes. Beams of light shot out from them.
After breaking through to the second rank spirit beast realm, Ye Chenfeng's soul power had increased by more than two times, and his physical strength had reached one thousand and five hundred kilograms of physical strength.
The reason why he could break through to the second rank spirit beast realm so quickly was all thanks to the Soul Devouring Tactic. The formidable devouring power of the Soul Devouring Tactic was beyond imagination.
"Sigh, if only I had an inexhaustible supply of low-grade soul crystals."
As his strength increased, more and more low-grade soul crystals would be consumed. If Ye Chenfeng wanted to increase his strength in a short time, he had to find a way to earn money to exchange for low-grade soul crystals or directly devour the enemy's spirit beast.
Just as he was consolidating his realm with all his strength, a frightened woman's scream suddenly sounded in the quiet mountain forest, disturbing him.
"What a familiar voice. Who is it?"
Ye Chenfeng frowned slightly and glanced at the northeast mountain forest. After hesitating for a while, he still rushed over.
"Little beauty, I advise you not to make any futile struggle. No one can save you here. It's useless even if you shout until your throat is hoarse."
A middle-aged man in a black robe, with a medium build and an obvious scar at the corner of his eye, licked his scarlet lips and said excitedly.
In front of him stood a young woman in a tight black training suit. Her figure was exquisite and charming, and there was a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth.
If Ye Chenfeng was here, he would be able to recognize at a glance that this charming woman was none other than Qiao Jingyuan, the eldest daughter of the Qiao family who used to have a good relationship with him but was now a stranger.
"Don't, don't come over. If you dare to hurt me, I guarantee that the Qiao family won't let you off." The injured Qiao Jingyuan warned in horror as she retreated.
At this moment, she was filled with regret. She shouldn't have entered the Baiyun Mountain Range alone to cultivate. If not for her rash actions, she wouldn't have encountered the rapist and put herself in danger.
"Little beauty, don't be afraid. I'll be very gentle." Looking at Qiao Jingyuan's beautiful appearance, the black-clothed man became even more excited.
"Soul beast, Golden-winged Bird."
At this critical moment, the injured Qiao Jingyuan didn't just sit there and wait for death. She clenched her teeth and summoned the Golden-winged Bird that the black-clothed man had just scattered to make a last stand.
Qiao Jingyuan was only a rank two soulbeast while the black-clothed man was a rank four soulbeast. Her Golden-winged Bird couldn't pose a threat to the black-clothed man at all.
As the black-clothed man fused his black bear into the black staff in his hand, a white light appeared on the staff and increased its offensive power.
"Bang!" A loud sound was heard.
The black-clothed man's staff smashed Qiao Jingyuan's Golden-winged Bird into pieces like a hot knife through butter. A powerful backlash surged into Qiao Jingyuan's mind and injured her soul, causing a large amount of blood to flow out from her seven orifices.
After suffering a series of soulforce recoils, Qiao Jingyuan, whose soul was severely injured, became abnormally weak. Her legs went soft and she collapsed to the ground.
At this moment, Qiao Jingyuan was truly afraid. She didn't dare to imagine her fate. Hot tears flowed uncontrollably and stained her charming face.
"What, not struggling anymore?" The black-clothed man looked at the despairing Qiao Jingyuan with a smile on his face. He walked up to her and took out a yellow paper bag, saying, "Come here, little beauty. Eat this obediently and I'll take good care of you."
With that, the black-clothed man ignored Qiao Jingyuan's resistance and forced the white powder in the yellow paper bag into her mouth.
"You, you bastard! You won't have a good ending!" Qiao Jingyuan could guess what the black-clothed man was feeding her and cursed in despair.
"Haha, little beauty, it'll be even better when the medicine takes effect." Qiao Jingyuan's cursing didn't make him stop. Instead, it made him even more excited.
As the black-clothed man came closer and closer, Qiao Jingyuan revealed a miserable and despairing expression.
