“The next day, my father was paralyzed in bed, unconscious.”
“During my father's illness, we sought out many famous doctors. My eldest brother even brought over the imperial physician who had prescribed my father's health-preserving secret recipe.”
“According to that imperial physician, my father had followed his instructions all these years, nourishing his body daily with dietary supplements.”
“Logically, it would be normal for him to live to 75 without illness or disaster, so how could he fall ill and become bedridden at 69?”
“He thoroughly examined my father but couldn't determine the cause of his unconsciousness.”
“However, he could tell that if my father's body continued to deteriorate at its current rate, he might not even last a month.”
“Before leaving, the imperial physician performed acupuncture on my father, allowing him to regain consciousness for an hour each day, while also locking away most of his vital essence.”
“But even so, according to him, if we couldn't find a cure within half a year, my father would pass away once that half-year was up.”
“In the following months, we found many more famous doctors for father, but all to no avail.”
“A month ago, I learned from my second sister that my eldest brother and the others were already preparing for my father's funeral.”
“That day, I suddenly realized something: my eldest brother was nearly fifty years old, and my father still hadn't said who he would pass the peerage to.”
“Perhaps... my eldest brother and the others also felt that father had lived long enough...”
“Alas, I originally thought I could accept this reality.”
“But just ten days ago, while I was poring over ancient texts, I actually found descriptions that matched my father's current condition.”
“According to the ancient texts, my father's symptoms were caused by an infestation of malevolent Qi, which could not be cured by medicine.”
“However, it wasn't entirely hopeless. The ancient texts stated that if ten Martial Dao Grandmasters worked together or one Martial Dao Grandmaster took action, they could dispel the malevolent Qi with their Internal Energy.”
“After finding a way to save father, I didn't mention it to my eldest brother and the others, because I felt they didn't want father to get better.”
“I agonizingly struggled alone for a long time, and finally decided to secretly come find you, Teacher, after all, you told me that your Realm had reached the Martial Dao Grandmaster Realm.”
“Moreover, you are well-known in the Jianghu and have many friends.”
“Before setting out, I originally intended to ask you to help me find nine other Martial Dao Grandmasters to jointly help my father dispel the malevolent Qi.”
“But I didn't expect that after three years, Teacher, your Cultivation had greatly increased, and you've regained your youth. You must have Breakthrough to the rare Martial Dao Grandmaster Realm, right?”
Zhou Fan nodded upon hearing this.
Seeing this, Jiang Qingzhi immediately moved closer to the left, more excited. She tightly hugged Zhou Fan's arm and pleaded, “Teacher, only you can save my father! Please, save him.”
“As long as you agree to save my father, Qingzhi will accept any price.”
Feeling his arm about to be suffocated by the pressure, Zhou Fan said helplessly, “Qingzhi, I told you, Linfeng Xiong and I are sworn brothers. You don't need to beg me; I will save him.”
“Also, who taught you to beg like this? Didn't I, your Teacher, always teach you to be a well-bred young lady and to be mindful of the distinction between men and women?”
While feeling Jiang Qingzhi's eager and warm emotions, Zhou Fan sternly reprimanded her.
“Teacher isn't just any other man. As your disciple, what's wrong with me being a little closer to you, Teacher?”
Jiang Qingzhi leaned her soft, pink lips close to Zhou Fan's ear and whispered again, “Qingzhi only acts like this with you, Teacher~ Don't you like it?”
Turning to look at the incredibly charming Jiang Qingzhi before him, Zhou Fan's heart was already suspicious, but his expression remained normal, even somewhat flippant, as he said, “How could anyone not like Qingzhi's appearance? Your Teacher likes Qingzhi the most.”
As he spoke, Zhou Fan moved his head close to Jiang Qingzhi's ear.
He lightly bit Jiang Qingzhi's alluring earlobe, which was like soft, white jade, and breathed out a warm breath, saying, “Qingzhi, you must stay in your carriage tonight, okay? Your Teacher will go and thoroughly check your progress over the past three years tonight.”
“And while I'm at it, I'll tutor Qingzhi on some new homework.”
“Naughty~”
Jiang Qingzhi seemed extremely shy. She gently patted Zhou Fan's chest with her soft, boneless hand, feigning dissatisfaction. “Teacher, you're really bad. Qingzhi doesn't care for your new homework.”
As she spoke, Jiang Qingzhi fled from Zhou Fan's carriage as if escaping.
But less than two seconds later, the carriage curtain was pulled open again, and Jiang Qingzhi only showed her flushed, pretty face, saying, “Teacher, I've made great progress these past three years~”
Then, the carriage curtain closed again.
Listening to Jiang Qingzhi's light, receding footsteps, Zhou Fan rubbed his temples and sighed in his heart, “Alas, it seems I've encountered some trouble. I really didn't want to think.”
Jiang Qingzhi's behavior was clearly very abnormal; only someone with their brain in their pants would actually believe what she said.
I, Zhou Fan, a dignified Transmigrator, what kind of tests haven't I endured back on Blue Star?
A mere C+ is not enough to make my brain lose the upper hand.
Recalling Jiang Qingzhi's every frown and smile, and her graceful figure from just now.
Zhou Fan stood up, strode quickly to close the carriage curtains tightly, and shut the door.
Then he turned and walked towards Yaya, who was looking bewildered and licking a lollipop with her tiny tongue.
...
...
...
Opening the carriage window and looking at the darkening sky, Zhou Fan's brain successfully gained the upper hand.
He kissed Yaya, who had fallen asleep from exhaustion, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, “With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?”
“Yaya, don't worry, I, Zhou Fan, will definitely figure out your past; and you, will always be my good friend.”
While savoring Yaya's adorable actions in his mind, Zhou Fan brought up the updated System panel.
“Host: Zhou Fan
Luck Value: 5000
Realm: Martial Dao Grandmaster
Cultivation Technique: One Qi Art (Perfection), Yin Yang Creation Skill (Beginner)
Lifespan (Remaining): 30 years
Dao Companion: Yaya (1/1)
Offspring: None
Evaluation: Comparable to a minor Qi Refining stage Spell Cultivator.”
Looking at his panel, Zhou Fan was very satisfied, because after obtaining the first half of the Yin Yang Creation Skill, he successfully reached the Beginner stage in less than ten days.
One must know that as the Cultivation Technique Zhou Fan had Cultivated for so many years, it took Zhou Fan a month of arduous Cultivation to barely reach the Beginner stage with the One Qi Art.
“I didn't expect my talent in the Dao of Yin and Yang to be so high.”
Zhou Fan couldn't help but feel a little proud.
“It's just a pity that the System only gave me the first half of the Yin Yang Creation Skill, so I can only Cultivate it to the Major Achievement stage.”
The Cultivation Realm stages from lowest to highest are: Beginner, Minor Achievement, Major Achievement, Perfection.
Thinking of this, Zhou Fan asked the System in his mind, “System, what is the highest Realm the Yin Yang Creation Skill can reach? And how can I obtain the second half of the Yin Yang Creation Skill?”
