Chapter 3 - Lu Family

"Did father's illness worsen again?"

Lu Yang turned to look at Lu Zhan with concern, only to see that although the latter was weak, his Qi was stable, and did not seem to be abnormal.

"Hmm?!"

Upon closer inspection, Lu Yang discovered that a faintly discernible strand of black energy had flashed past the centre of Lu Zhan's brows.

Just as Lu Yang was about to investigate further, the black aura had already disappeared, and at this moment, Lu Zhan also opened his mouth and said, "It's not me, it's Lian'er …"

"Little Sister Qing Lian?" Lu Yang was a little surprised.

Lu Zhan nodded his head, "Lian'er's strange illness has broken out again, and I've been unconscious for the entire morning. Seeing that the situation isn't right, I had someone invite Master Chen over to take a look."

Lu Yang cast a suspicious gaze at the Master Chen. After all these years, no matter whether it was his father's or his sister's injuries, the medicine that the Master Chen had sold to them had not improved at all …

Master Chen had a face full of pride: "Brother Lu does not need to worry, Niece Qing Lian took that 'Scarlet Nectar', and will wake up very soon."

"Yes."

Lu Zhan muttered and nodded. The worry on his face showed that he did not have that much confidence in the Master Chen.

"Redbeard Danshen, a second rank elixir, has the ability to activate blood circulation. It can be used to refine medicine, and at the same time, it contains a certain amount of Spirit Element. Because of the blood circulation effect, the absorption rate of Spirit Element is higher, consuming it can increase one's spiritual energy, and it can also be used to refine supplementary pills and increase the elixir …"

Lu Yang muttered the information that came to his mind.

The description that Lu Yang had given was actually a good one word, it was even more detailed than the introduction of ordinary books on medicinal herbs. To understand it to such an extent, perhaps only cultivators who wished to advance in the path of pills would put in this effort.

Master Chen could not help but look at Lu Yang twice before praising his lightly, "I didn't think that Nephew Lu Yang was so knowledgeable about medicinal ingredients, then I would know that with the help of this kind of medicinal herb, he would definitely be able to open Niece Qing Lian's meridians. At that time, the warm and cold energy in her body would converge and her strange illness would naturally be cured …"

Speaking up to here, Master Chen's expression became more and more pleased, as if the strange disease which had caused so many alchemists to be helpless in the city had been solved by him.

"I spent a lot of effort to get this Danshen pill. I initially wanted to use it to concoct pills, but my niece Qing Lian was in a critical condition so I could only bear with it. However, this thing is still precious …"

The Master Chen stopped midway, but looked at Lu Zhan with a greedy look, as he did not notice the change in his expression.

"Please rest assured Master Chen, we will definitely not let you suffer any losses …"

As Lu Zhan said this, he sighed secretly in his heart. He clearly knew that he would be ruthlessly slaughtered by the Master Chen, but there was nothing he could do about it … As long as he could cure that suffering child …

When Master Chen heard this, he nodded his head in satisfaction. He did not join any powers because he wanted to reap the benefits from them.

"That's not right!"

At this moment, an ear-piercing sound rang in the room.

"Yang Er, what's wrong?" Lu Zhan asked anxiously.

"We can't let Qing Lian consume that Danshen!"

Before he finished his sentence, Lu Yang had already turned and rushed out.

The confused Lu Zhan and Master Chen were startled, but they still followed him.

Inside the elegant room, a pretty girl was lying unconscious on the bed. Her innocent face was filled with pain, showing that she was suffering unknowingly.

"Qing Lian, drink the medicine."

A slightly older girl beside the bed scooped up the soup and was about to feed it to the young girl to drink.

"Sister Lu Qi, don't!"

Suddenly, a shout came from outside the door, before Lu Qi could react, a gust of wind blew over suddenly.

Lu Qi did not expect that, when the gust of wind hit her hand, it directly caused the bowl of ginseng soup to fall, and sprinkled all over the ground.

"Cousin brother Lu Yang?"

Lu Qi looked at the youth who walked in through the door with a face full of shock.

She was shocked that Lu Yang had suddenly barged in and knocked down the expensive medicine, and was even more shocked that Lu Yang had acted so quickly and accurately. She never thought that she, who had obtained first place in the family assessment, would actually be ambushed by her cousin, Lu Yang, whose grades were the bottom!

"Sister Lu Qi, I'm sorry."

Lu Yang nodded to his big cousin, his gaze sweeping across the soup on the ground, and finally stopping at the completely red ginseng.

"Yang Er, what are you doing?!"

Two figures walked in, and when Lu Zhan saw the spilled soup, he could not help but shout out angrily.

Master Chen's face was filled with pain, "My Danshen … "This stalk of Danshen was purchased at a high price, but it's been wasted just like that …"

As the medicinal soup was splattered on the ground, the medicinal fragrance of the Redbeard Danshen spread throughout the room. When this strange fragrance entered the nostrils of everyone present, their expressions became increasingly unsightly.

Even Lu Zhan, who rarely got angry, had a stern look on his face.

He still restrained himself and nodded towards Lu Qi: "Qi'er, thank you for taking care of Lian'er. You can leave first."

Seeing that the atmosphere was bad, Lu Qi did not stay any longer, but anxiously looked at Lu Yang before she left.

Master Chen was saddened by the waste of spirit medicine, but immediately remembered that he had already sold the Danshen, and the expression on his face became much warmer, "Brother Lu, I passed this spirit medicine completely unharmed. Although my niece did not consume the medicine, the responsibility does not lie with me, I want to take all of the original price."

Hearing these words, Lu Zhan's face turned even uglier, but he still maintained his composure and said: "Of course, Master Chen need not worry."

Only then did Master Chen heave a sigh of relief, and wore a look of schadenfreude as he looked at Lu Yang.

"Yang Er, what exactly is going on with you, don't you know that this medicine is related to your sister's life?!" Lu Zhan asked harshly.

Only then did Lu Yang slowly turn around and meet Lu Zhan's gaze. "It's precisely because of this matter of Qing Lian's life and death that I stopped her from consuming these Danshen pills."

Hearing this, everyone present was stunned.

The Master Chen was even more sarcastic, "You stopped the patient from taking the medicine to save him? "This is truly a legendary story."

The anger on Lu Zhan's face grew even stronger. "What nonsense are you spouting!"

"Your son is not messing around." Lu Yang's expression did not change, "If Qing Lian consumed the Danshen, she would have died without a doubt. In order to save Qing Lian, I had no choice but to stop her from taking the pill."

The smile on Master Chen's face that was originally watching the show froze, "Lu Yang, what do you mean by this? Could it be that I will poison this Qing Lian child?!"

"What the Master Chen prescribes is naturally medicine." Lu Yang replied indifferently.

"Since it's medicine …"

"However, if the medicine is not right, it will eat the dead." Lu Yang interrupted the Master Chen's words coldly.

"Ignorant child, what do you know?" Master Chen's face twitched slightly when he was robbed of his dignity.

He suppressed his anger and said, "This little girl is suffering from a strange cold and heat disease. There is a wave of cold and hot air in her body at the same time. The internal conflict between the two auras caused her body to be injured." I will use these fifty years' worth of Redbeard Danshen to open up her meridians, and allow her two auras to harmonize with each other.

Lu Yang stared at the Master Chen, his gaze sharp: Let's not talk about whether the unreal Qing Lian is able to handle the Spirit Element's power, if the two powerful energies in her body clash, do you think her weak body can handle it?

Hearing this, Master Chen was startled, but still tried to argue: "It's just hot and cold qi, as long as it's guided by the Spirit Element of Danshen …"
