Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor-Chapter 1274: I Can Save Them, But I Have Conditions

Chapter 1274: Chapter 1274: I Can Save Them, But I Have Conditions

After the guests and hosts were seated, Li Jingren and Xia Chenyu spoke with Fang Bai, while Sun Guangyi and Liu Yunling, the two stewards, went to the Manor Master Hall to meet the Manor Master.

As for Huang Yuanhu, Ye Qingxuan, and the other Golden Crow Villa disciples, they followed Steward Li’s orders and returned to their respective residences to rest. After a short break, they were to rush to the edges of the Eternal Death Zone to join the army confronting various martial artists and defending the Essence Stone Vein.

"Senior Fang, our Manor Master is currently healing his beloved son and cannot come out to meet you right now. Please forgive us for any neglect!"

After Sun Guangyi and Liu Yunling left, Li Jingren said with a smile on his face.

Logically, although Fang Bai is young, his strength is unfathomable. He has saved the lives of Sun Guangyi, Li Jingren, and more than a dozen Golden Crow Villa disciples, so both sentimentally and logically, Huang Canghai, the Manor Master of Golden Crow Villa, should meet with Fang Bai.

However, the recent situation in the Golden Crow Villa is quite exceptional. One is that the Villa is experiencing the biggest crisis in its history: if it is not handled well, it will be a disaster. Huang Canghai is so worried about this that he can hardly find peace for a moment; secondly, a few months ago, Huang Canghai’s beloved son Huang Yuanqi was severely injured and has been in a coma, with his life and death uncertain. As a father, Huang Canghai has to spend several hours a day using True Yuan to prolong his son’s life.

Given this, Huang Canghai is naturally busy.

Fang Bai arrived at the time when Huang Canghai was using True Yuan to save his son’s life, and hence could not take the time to meet Fang Bai for a while, not out of intentional neglect.

What Li Jingren was most worried about was the fact that Fang Bai is still young. If he felt slighted at Golden Crow Villa and left in a huff, taking Xia Chenyu with him, the situation would become complicated.

Fortunately, Fang Bai did not show any displeasure about this, which greatly relieved Li Jingren.

Half an hour later, Sun Guangyi and Liu Yunling returned to the reception hall with solemn expressions on their faces.

Seeing the grim look on their faces, Li Jingren felt a pang in his heart, stood up to greet them, and asked, "Steward Sun, Steward Liu, the Manor Master...?"

"The Manor Master will be here shortly. It’s just that... Yuan Qi’s condition is getting worse..."

Liu Yunling sighed and said in a heavy voice, "Although Yuan Qi has been using True Yuan and Spiritual Medicine to sustain a glimmer of life these past few months, his condition has been deteriorating recently. Manor Master Huang said... even if we find Blood Bodhi and refine the Nine Revolutions Rebirth Pill now, I’m afraid it won’t have much effect on Yuan Qi. At most, it would extend his life by a few more days..."

"We’ve returned too late..."

Li Jingren felt as if all the strength had been drained from his body, and he slumped back into his chair, his complexion pale, blaming himself deeply.

They had previously gone on a mission while also tasked with finding Blood Bodhi. It was only upon encountering Fang Bai that they obtained it. They had thought they would be greatly commended upon their return to the Golden Crow Manor Master, only to hear such news. Their joy turned into disappointment and sorrow.

"Even the Nine Revolutions Rebirth Pill is useless... then... is there really no other way?"

Li Jingren muttered to himself.

Liu Yunling slowly shook his head, his face filled with sorrow.

Sun Guangyi also sighed endlessly.

Xia Chenyu was also visibly moved, her beautiful brows tightly furrowed.

Huang Yuanqi is the Golden Crow Villa’s current Manor Master Huang Canghai’s only beloved son. Although Huang Canghai has many brothers and sisters, among all the younger generation of the Huang family, Huang Yuanqi possesses the highest aptitude. Having reached the Cosmic Level of perfection in his thirties, he is counted among the direct disciples of Golden Crow Villa. Even if he is not considered a favored child of the heavens, he is not far from it.

Among the young generation of disciples in Golden Crow Manor, Xia Chenyu had the highest aptitude, and it was likely that he would walk further on the path of Martial Dao. However, Xia Chenyu was ultimately not a member of the Huang Family, unable to inherit the Manor Master position. At most, he could only serve as an Elder.

Therefore, Huang Yuanqi was the most likely candidate to succeed the position of Golden Crow Manor’s Manor Master in the future. His life and death naturally touched the hearts of many disciples of the Golden Crow Manor.

"Injuries to the Qi Sea and broken meridians are extremely grave for a Martial Artist. Yuan Qi’s survival up to now is also thanks to the Manor Master, who spared no effort in expending a great amount of True Yuan to preserve his life... Not long ago, I went to Spirit Sea City to inquire with a high-grade Pill Master. That Pill Master said, to heal Yuan Qi’s injuries, one would need Spiritual Medicines like Spirit Fox Grass, Tears of Crystal, and Blood Bodhi, all aged more than three thousand years..."

Liu Yunling sighed again as he spoke, and said with a bitter smile, "Not only do we need Spiritual Medicines aged over three thousand years, but we also need to gather Spirit Fox Grass, Tears of Crystal, and Blood Bodhi concurrently. How easy could that be? Even if we have these three kinds of Spiritual Medicines, it would still take time to find them! And Yuan Qi’s life force can only last for three more days... alas..."

For a moment, the three Stewards of Golden Crow Manor looked at each other in the parlor, despondent, with sighs and sympathetic sounds unceasing.

Xia Chenyu glanced at Fang Bai, her lips slightly moving, as if she wanted to say something, but found it difficult to do so.

Fang Bai seemed to know what she wanted to say, shrugging his shoulders and saying, "I have Blood Bodhi with an age of three thousand years, but as for Spirit Fox Grass and Tears of Crystal of the same age, I really don’t have any. I do have some of one or two thousand years, but sadly they are of little use..."

Upon hearing this, Xia Chenyu couldn’t help but show a look of disappointment.

Xia Chenyu knew that since Fang Bai’s arrival in Shenwu Continent, he had collected a lot of Cultivation Resources, including rare Spiritual Medicines over a thousand years old. She had hoped to ask him about Spirit Fox Grass and Tears of Crystal, apart from the three thousand-year Blood Bodhi. Seeing him shake his head, she knew he would not hide anything from her, and also sighed, thinking that perhaps it was Huang Yuanqi’s fate to face this calamity.

"However..."

Fang Bai stroked his chin, seeing Xia Chenyu, Sun Guangyi, Li Jingren, and Liu Yunling all look at him intently, as if a drowning person had caught a lifeline. He couldn’t help but smile and slowly said, "Although the injuries to the Qi Sea and broken meridians are difficult to heal, apart from the method Steward Liu mentioned, there is also another way..."

"Please enlighten us, Senior Fang!"

"If you can heal Yuan Qi’s injuries, we will be eternally grateful!"

"From then on, Senior Fang would be our entire Golden Crow Manor’s benefactor!"

Stewards Sun Guangyi, Li Jingren, and Liu Yunling stood up together and gave Fang Bai a deep bow.

The life and death of Huang Yuanqi were connected to the future of Golden Crow Manor, and at this moment, even if there was just a glimmer of hope, Liu Yunling and the others wouldn’t let it pass.

Moreover, Fang Bai had previously said he could refine high-grade Elixirs, and had the status of an Alchemist. So when he mentioned there was another way to heal Huang Yuanqi, Sun Guangyi and the others believed him somewhat, thinking that no matter whether he truly had the ability to heal Huang Yuanqi or not, trying was better than just watching Huang Yuanqi’s life force slip away.

"I can save him, but I have my conditions," Fang Bai said with a smile.

"Senior Fang, please say them. As long as it’s within Golden Crow Manor’s capabilities, we will agree," Sun Guangyi promptly vowed, patting his chest, thinking that Senior Fang’s so-called conditions were likely a request for a substantial amount of Cultivation Resources as a reward, a perfectly reasonable demand.

Sun Guangyi believed that as long as Fang Bai could heal Huang Yuanqi, no matter how great the cost, Manor Huang would certainly agree.

After all, Manor Huang had only this one son, and this son might also be the future successor of the Manor Master of the manor.
