Chapter 1162
"Sect Master Dong . " Yi Yun noticed that Dong Shaoqing hesitated to speak, giving a furtive glance at Dong Xiaowan . Her breathing was weak and her body was petite and frail . He could not help but sigh . He did not know how a fine girl like Dong Xiaowan would end up in such a strange situation .
"Come on in . However, I might not have any solutions . "
"Thank you, Young master Yi . "
Dong Shaoqing helped Dong Xiaowan into Yi Yun's alchemy lab .
Dong Xiaowan didn't have a tall frame . She carefully sat on a rock bed in the alchemy lab, acting somewhat reserved .
"Hand . " Yi Yun said as he extended his hand .
Dong Xiaowan blushed slightly as she rolled up her sleeves, revealing her snow-white wrists . Dong Xiaowan's arm was like that of a thirteen-year-old's . It was small and exquisite . As Yi Yun felt Dong Xiaowan's pulse, he activated his energy vision and observed the energy flows within her body .
Although the evil entity had entered remission, it was still entrenched in Dong Xiaowan's dantian . It was as if it was trying to fuse with Dong Xiaowan's dantian .
It was probably the cause of Dong Xiaowan being unable to increase her cultivation level no matter how much she cultivated .
Yi Yun vaguely sensed that once the evil entity was fully fused with Dong Xiaowan, she would probably be beyond saving .
Was it some kind of old monster trying to possess Dong Xiaowan?
Such a thought flashed across Yi Yun's mind . However, he eliminated the possibility after some thought . Possession would have begun from the soul sea, and not the dantian .
Furthermore, although the evil entity resembled a human face, the feeling it gave off did not resemble a spiritual soul .
Yi Yun hesitated for a moment before he gathered spatial dimension laws into his hands, forming pure Yang Dao patterns .
Yi Yun cast the pure Yang Dao patterns into Dong Xiaowan's body, sealing the vital meridian paths around her dantian . Pure Yang was best against evil entities . With these pure Yang Dao patterns in place, the evil entity was unlikely to endanger Dong Xiaowan's life; however, it was not a long-term solution .
"Do not cultivate for the time being, nor should you use your Yuan Qi . If Sect Master Dong doesn't mind, I suggest that Dong Xiaowan stay here with me . What do you think?"
"Young Master Yi, you are too kind . You saved Xiaowan's life, so why would I mind?"
Not only was Dong Shaoqing not worried when he heard that, he was overjoyed . He yearned for his daughter to stay behind so that she could someday be saved by Yi Yun .
"Alright . " Yi Yun nodded .
"Then…I'll be leaving . Xiaowan, I'll come and see you again . " Dong Shaoqing cupped his fists and said .
He was not worried leaving his daughter, who was too weak to resist anything, with Yi Yun . Whether it was his thankfulness for what Yi Yun had done, or Yi Yun's saving of his daughter without compensation, he could tell that Yi Yun was a person of high moral standing .
And looking at it from a broader perspective, even if Yi Yun had any thoughts on his daughter, Dong Shaoqing could turn a blind eye . Yi Yun was different from Huyan Cang . Huyan Cang was already halfway in the grave, yet he wanted to fool around with young women . As for Yi Yun, he was young and had a promising future . If his daughter ended up being Yi Yun's companion, how could that be a loss?
After Dong Shaoqing left, Yi Yun entered seclusion . In his free time, he would check on the evil entity in Dong Xiaowan's body . As time passed, Yi Yun's understanding of the evil entity grew deeper .
And Dong Xiaowan followed in Ru'ers footsteps, becoming one of the medicine children of Yun Xin Loft . Dong Xiaowan would help Ru'er if she needed it . Together, they kept Yun Xin Loft in good order .
Meanwhile, Yi Yun's reputation rapidly spread throughout Myriad City .
It was all due to the fact that he had cleaved off Zuoqiu Haoyu's arms and burned them to ash with pure Yang flames .
And despite being only a junior, he was able to refine Supreme Palace Iceheart Pills and awaken Dong Xiaowan, who had a mysterious and deadly illness . The quality of his pills even exceeded Zuoqiu Bo's!
Either of those two stories resulted in an absolutely astounding reaction on the part of those who heard them .
In Myriad City, alchemists enjoyed an extremely high status . Even though it was common knowledge that Yi Yun had offended the Myriad Immortal Pavilion, there were still many people that came for Yi Yun's pill-refining services or to befriend him .
"What? Young Master Baifeng wants to see me? Who is he?"
Yi Yun was informed by Dong Xiaowan just after he finished meditation .
"Young Master Yi, Young Master Baifeng's name is Zhou Baifeng . He's from Myriad City's Zhou family . The Zhou family isn't a sect but it is a very powerful faction . It's ranked third among all the factions in Myriad City! Although it's inferior to the Myriad Immortal Pavilion, it's not by a lot . Zhou Baifeng himself is well-regarded within the Zhou family . Many of the family's matters are left to his decision . "
"Young Master Baifeng is already outside . " Dong Xiaowan added .
Yi Yun thought for a moment before nodding . He said,"Let him in . "
Since Young Master Baifeng was filthy rich, Yi Yun could raise the price if he was here for pills . Yi Yun needed to earn large sums of runes over the next three years, so he naturally wanted to accept business when it came to him .
After Dong Xiaowan passed the message, two men quickly walked in .
One of the men was wearing a light-blue long-sleeved shirt . He was smiling from afar as he warmly greeted Yi Yun,"You must be Master Yi . I've heard many things about you . I'm Zhou Baifeng and this is Young Master Zhang Zhiyuan, who is a distinguished guest of my Zhou family . Master Yi, you might not know of Young Master Zhang Zhiyuan's reputation since you are new here . He is a famous young genius in Myriad City . "
Zhang Zhiyuan was fanning himself with a jade fan . He had an incisive aura and appeared to be extraordinary .
Yi Yun slowly put down his teacup and said lightly,"May I know what medicine Young Master Baifeng plans on refining? Young Master Baifeng should know that my prices aren't cheap . "
"That I naturally know . However, I'm here not for Master Yi's services . Instead, I'm here to invite Master Yi to become a distinguished guest of the Zhou family . My Zhou family has quite the influence in Myriad City . All the distinguished guests of the Zhou family are geniuses . If Master Yi does see fit to let us welcome you, even the Myriad Immortal Pavilion would think twice about troubling you . " Young Master Baifeng spoke very confidently and wore a rather conceited expression .
The Zhou family was considered quite a large tree that even famous geniuses like Zhang Zhiyuan flocked to . Young Master Baifeng made it a point to bring Zhang Zhiyuan in order to make his case more convincing .
Although Zhang Zhiyuan was inferior to Fairy Youqin and Fairy Wuxia, he was still a reputable genius .
"Once, Young Master Zhang Zhiyuan had offended a large sect because of a woman . However, after he became a distinguished guest of my Zhou family, that sect could only suppress their indignation . " Young Master Baifeng said .
"Young Master Baifeng is right . Yi Yun, Young Master Baifeng is here today to save you . Without the Zhou family, you will be alone . And it's hard to do anything single-handedly . " Zhang Zhiyuan glanced at Yi Yun, but he felt somewhat displeased .
Yi Yun had not stood up from the moment they entered . Back when Zhang Zhiyuan became the Zhou family's distinguished guest, he had been extremely polite when he took the initiative to receive their patronage .
This kind of preferential treatment, and the difference in attitude, already made Zhang Zhiyuan unhappy . Furthermore, Yi Yun's arrogance irritated him .
"You are soliciting me? Sorry, but I'm not interested . " Yi Yun rejected it immediately . "I undisciplined by nature, and so am not accustomed to being governed by others . As for whether the Myriad Immortal Pavilion will seek to hurt me, or whether I need protection from Zhou family…"
"If I were to sell myself to a faction for something trivial like seeking protection, then my martial path would have cultivated for nothing . " As Yi Yun spoke, he swept his gaze to Zhang Zhiyuan .
People like Young Master Zhou or Young Master Zhang meant nothing to Yi Yun at all .
