Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

"My background?"

Xia Liu fell into deep thought.

What is my background?

Do I have one?

Maybe, but I haven't discovered it yet.

To have gotten this far, the old man gave me a push.

Later, he vanished into thin air, leaving behind many mysteries for me.

For such a long time within the realm, everyone believes that I am a disciple of the Taiyi Sect.

Perhaps, the old man is a high-ranking member of the Taiyi Sect.

But the Taiyi Sect absolutely isn't my background.

Xia Liu was certain, having a gut feeling that if the Taiyi Sect discovered him, it might not end well.

"If I say I have none, would you believe me?"

After a moment of silence, Xia Liu said with a light smile to Liu Mingyue.

"No background? A loose cultivator wandering between heaven and earth?"

Xia Liu nodded, having no sect or faction, perhaps that makes him a loose cultivator. To put it less nicely, just a wild cultivator.

"Do you think the people of the world would believe it?"

Liu Mingyue spoke on behalf of everyone questioning.

Performing the Sect-Protecting Move of the Taiyi Sect.

Owning a storage container, having a foundation filled with the pure breath of both Buddhism and Daoism, able to summon Karmic Fire.

Such a rare super genius, if claimed to be a mere loose cultivator, no one would believe it.

"Well, there's nothing I can do, I've never seen the things you mentioned. The Taiyi Eight Trigrams Palm was taught to me by an old man, including the cultivation techniques, all were taught by him."

Xia Liu shook his head, feeling that when he spoke the truth, nobody would believe him.

"If that's the case, your luck is truly frightening."

Liu Mingyue gradually began to believe.

Xia Liu's eyes were sincere, and within him, there was much helplessness.

Helpless because no one trusts him.

"You are very special; those red eyes can see things many can't."

After a pause, Xia Liu said slowly.

"Oh, oh, receive the Dragon Soul, and take a look at the Jade Pure Lotus."

Being stared at by Xia Liu, Liu Mingyue felt a bit flustered, her ears gradually heating up.

She couldn't let this state continue or she would embarrass herself.

Speaking of the Jade Pure Lotus, Xia Liu put away his wry smile and stared intently at the Yin Pool ahead.

The Jade Pure Lotus Seed was something he longed for.

But what excited him the most should be the Energy of Yin Sha contained in the Yin Pool!

Such a dense Energy of Yin Sha, it could probably elevate him to the ninth layer of Qi Cultivation!

After so many days, Xia Liu's cultivation had already stabilized at the peak of the eighth layer of Qi Cultivation.

He just needed an enormous amount of Spiritual Energy to break through to the ninth layer.

Now, this opportunity had arrived!

"The rhizome of the Jade Pure Lotus also has a magical effect; Brother Liu should fully harvest it. It might help you in the future."

Watching Xia Liu approach the Jade Pure Lotus step by step, Liu Mingyue reminded him.

The Jade Pure Lotus is a Heaven and Earth Spirit Medicine, every part of it is a treasure.

Even its rhizome might be more useful than the lotus seed, who knows.

There are so few records about the Jade Pure Lotus, Liu Mingyue couldn't be sure of anything at the moment.

Xia Liu waved his hand behind him and in an instant, he appeared above the Jade Pure Lotus.

Looking at the pristine, flawless lotus root, Xia Liu uprooted it completely.

After taking out the five lotus seeds, he stored the entire lotus root into his storage ring.

"Here, two are yours, and one for Brother Lu."

On his way back, Xia Liu distributed the previously planned lotus seeds to Liu Mingyue and Lu Fang.

Neither of them refused, accepting the lotus seeds naturally.

Liu Mingyue's hands trembled continuously.

With these two Jade Pure Lotus Seeds, her father's hidden ailment could be cured!

In the future, the Qingyun Sect, one of the five immortal sects of Huaxia, would rise again in the Huaxia Realm!

"Brother Liu! What are you doing?"

Suddenly seeing Xia Liu's strange action, Liu Mingyue immediately responded.

"I'm going to test the effect of the Jade Pure Lotus Seed, what's wrong?"

Liu Mingyue's scream was so sudden it almost made Xia Liu drop the lotus seed in his hand.

"My dear brother, please don't test it. The Jade Pure Lotus Seed is meant for a person, and it only works once in a lifetime. If you test it, it will have no effect if you take it again after getting poisoned."

Liu Mingyue, grateful for Xia Liu giving her the lotus seed, found it necessary to remind and care for Xia Liu.

"Oh, I have a hidden ailment, so I want to see if this can remove it."

Xia Liu explained with a bitter smile.

"I see..."

Liu Mingyue felt embarrassed; it seemed her concern was unnecessary.

"Brother Liu, you have a hidden ailment?"

The silent Lu Fang couldn't help but speak.

That Xia Liu had a hidden ailment.

Had a hidden ailment!

Even so, his abilities were still so astonishing and earth-shattering.

This...

Liu Mingyue suddenly realized, sneaking a glance at Xia Liu with an expression as if she were looking at a monster.

Unexpectedly, this seemingly awe-inspiring genius was actually injured.

"Is it really shocking that I'd be injured? Didn't mean to eat poisonous herbs back in the day, leaving behind a hidden ailment."

Xia Liu casually explained.

"Eating poisonous herbs by mistake? You managed to survive until now; your cultivation must be formidable."

"Not much, just at the fifteenth layer of Qi Cultivation."

...

Seeing Xia Liu's nonchalant smile, Liu Mingyue and Lu Fang almost wanted to strangle him.

Not much, just at the fifteenth layer of Qi Cultivation!

Just!

The word "just" was used excellently!

In today's world, the fifteenth layer of Qi Cultivation is already the peak for cultivators.

Yet he still said "just"!

He's such a pompous figure, no wonder his cultivation wasn't sealed!

"Wait!"

Just as Xia Liu was about to let the Jade Pure Lotus Seed into his mouth, Liu Mingyue stopped him again.

Xia Liu looked baffled, "Why now, young lady..."

"The Jade Pure Lotus Seed may be a spirit medicine, and though it's benign, it grew in a place filled with extreme Yin Sha. The energy it contains may not be something just anyone can consume."

Liu Mingyue had knowledge in this area.

To consume a Heaven and Earth Spirit Medicine directly, one typically needs a highly advanced cultivation.

To consume it directly at the Foundation Establishment Stage was clearly inappropriate.

If something went wrong, it could result in exploding from within.

"Brother Liu, listen to Sister Mingyue's advice, she is renowned as a walking encyclopedia of cultivation knowledge."

At this moment, Liu Mingyue had no mood to reprimand Lu Fang.

She just hoped Xia Liu would stop his actions; otherwise, he would regret it for life.

"Then how can I consume it safely?"

Seeing Xia Liu change his mind, Liu Mingyue exhaled and explained, "I temporarily forgot, anyway, you need to mix several auxiliary herbs. Once their effects kick in, then you can consume the Jade Pure Lotus Seed."

"So that's it, too troublesome, I'll just swallow it myself."

Saying so, Xia Liu opened his mouth and tossed the Jade Pure Lotus Seed right in.

"No!"

"Oh my God!"

...

But it was too late; Xia Liu had already swallowed the Jade Pure Lotus Seed.

"How could you do that, thinking your cultivation is high? Even a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator wouldn't dare to swallow spiritual medicine, you could kill yourself!"
