Chapter 5 Qingyun
Arriving at the entrance of the medical clinic, the usually sparsely populated street was now packed with crowds.
The medical clinic opened by Xiao Ling'er happened to be close to the city gate, so the flow of people was extremely large.
"Make way, make way..." Xiao Feng squeezed for a long time before squeezing to the front.
"Where did this immoral young man come from!" An elderly man who was squeezed aside by Xiao Feng cursed. However, when he turned and saw Xiao Feng, his tone instantly changed.
"Xiao Feng, ah! It really has been a long time since I saw you. Come, come, come, stand in front of me." After speaking, he didn't forget to shout, "Divine Doctor Xiao is here! Why aren't you guys making way?"
The crowd looked toward the source of the voice. Upon seeing it was Xiao Feng, most people moved aside so that Xiao Feng could walk directly through.
"Divine Doctor Xiao, long time no see."
"Indeed, Divine Doctor Xiao is still so handsome, having the elegance of myself back in the day."
"Thanks to Divine Doctor Xiao, this leg of mine could be saved. I originally wanted to thank you in person, but who knew your sister just wouldn't let me see you."
"Haha, Boss Wang, there is no need for thanks. I am a healer; saving people is a bounden duty," Xiao Feng laughed.
"Sigh, don't say healer; Medical Saint is more like it. If you ask me, that person from the Vermilion Bird Empire... that..."
"Medical Immortal Bai Ling'er," someone beside him interjected to remind him.
"Right, right, right, it is her. I feel that Medical Immortal is far inferior compared to you."
"But you don't say, it is said that the Medical Immortal is as beautiful as a heavenly fairy, and her medical skills are even more outstanding, simply reaching perfection.
However, it is said there has been no news of her for over ten years. They say she is in secluded cultivation, and many seeking treatment returned in disappointment because of this."
"Tch! Just a piece of trash who doesn't even dare to break through the Divine Tribulation Realm. What use is high medical skill? I could crush him to death with a casual hand!"
A bystander, seeing Xiao Feng being so sought after by people, mocked disdainfully.
"Who is it? Who said that? If you have the ability, come out and gesture with me!" Xiao Feng did not mind yet, but the bystanders could no longer accept it and retorted angrily directly.
"Exactly. If you have the ability, come and gesture with us first to see how amazing you are!" Following one person taking the lead, others followed suit and jeered.
Seeing so many people speaking up for Xiao Feng, that person directly wilted like a flower and stopped talking...
Xiao Feng recognized all these people... Most were people who had come to the medical clinic for treatment back then.
Many were injured due to various reasons, leading to slight attachment by the Abyss, and came to the medical clinic for wound treatment.
Hearing so many of them speak up for him, Xiao Feng did not say anything, but his heart felt warm.
Even if most people in the Abyss could be unscrupulous for the Profound Dao, they were ultimately flesh and blood humans. How could they be inferior to beasts who didn't understand gratitude?
Under the "modest yielding" of the crowd, Xiao Feng arrived at the very front of the crowd. At this moment, the central avenue was completely empty; presumably, it was left open intentionally.
"Brother Xiao~" A child's immature voice drifted over. Xiao Feng looked in the direction of the voice; it was a little girl about nine years old running toward him.
"Yao'er! Why did you come?" Xiao Feng squatted down and asked with a smile.
A burly man also appeared beside her and said, "Thanks to Divine Doctor Xiao. If not for you, I wouldn't know what to do about my child. At that time, she was eroded by the Abyss.
Those other quacks all said they had to chop off her arm. Fortunately, Divine Doctor Xiao was there to save my Yao'er's arm."
"My Yao'er has been making a fuss about wanting to see you. The result was she kept being shut out by your sister.
I heard that child Qingyun was coming back and thought since you were so familiar back then, you would definitely come too. Haha, I indeed guessed right."
"I have been in secluded cultivation recently, so perhaps my sister did not let you visit," Xiao Feng spoke to explain.
This burly man's name was Situ Hao. He was the Patriarch of the Situ family, and the Situ family was also one of the four great families of Flowing Wind City. His Profound Dao cultivation was at the peak of the Divine Sovereign Realm!
It was also because of this that Situ Yao could walk out, because at this moment, Situ Hao was releasing profound energy to help resist the erosion of the Abyssal Dust.
The four great families of Flowing Wind City were the Qi family, Situ family, Wang family, and Ximen family.
Speaking of cultivation, Situ Hao sighed. "Sigh, various rumors have risen everywhere these years. Presumably, you also don't feel good. Your Profound Dao talent is clearly even higher than that little girl from the Qi family. As a result, now... Pei, truly unlucky."
... Xiao Feng knew the Situ family Patriarch's personality had always been relatively straight. Being able to become the Patriarch relied entirely on his solid Profound Dao cultivation.
"Yao Yao, look, you've also seen Xiao Feng. Can we go now? If your mother knows I brought you out, she will scold me to death." Situ Hao asked in a discussing tone.
"No, no! I want to look at Brother Xiao more~"
Situ Hao had a face full of helplessness and could only look at Xiao Feng pleadingly.
Xiao Feng looked at Situ Yao and spoke softly with a gentle tone. "Yao'er, be obedient and go home. I will go to your house to see you when the time comes, okay?"
"Okay~" Situ Yao said in a milky voice. "Then you have to play with me for a while. Cultivating day after day is so boring."
"I can, but you also have to cultivate well. Wait until you break through to the Divine Soul Realm, and you can come out to see me by yourself. At that time, I will take you to play properly. Is this our agreement?"
"Okay~"
...
Watching the Situ father and daughter leave, Xiao Feng heard a familiar voice again. "Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao..."
Hearing this familiar voice, Xiao Feng's face twitched unconsciously. He quickly recovered his senses, looked toward the direction of the voice, and feigned surprise. "Big Brother Qi?"
"Hahaha... Brother Xiao also came to welcome my sister." Saying this, Qi Panjian walked toward Xiao Feng.
"Yes... Since Qingyun went out for experience back then, I haven't seen her for a long time. So I thought of coming out to see her," Xiao Feng said reminiscently.
"Hehe... I knew Brother Xiao definitely wouldn't give up on my sister. After all, my sister is so beautiful and her talent is so high. However, it won't be easy for you to compete now. In these recent days, the threshold of my Qi family has almost been broken by the Ximen family, Wang family, and Situ family."
"A proud daughter of heaven; it should be so." Xiao Feng responded with a flat tone, as if just chatting about "gossip." Qi Panjian looked carefully at Xiao Feng's face. Seeing Xiao Feng had no emotional fluctuations, he felt very bored and didn't know how to say the "wording" he had thought of in advance.
Pausing for a moment, he transmitted sound to Xiao Feng wretchedly. "Hey, I'm speaking the truth. If you asked me to pick a candidate from inside to be my brother-in-law, it would definitely still have to be you."
"Oh, why?" Xiao Feng revealed a suspicious look.
"I am very accurate at reading people. Although your mouth is very broken and your intentions are very bad, at least you have a conscience."
Xiao Feng...
"When we were bullied as children, you would always come out immediately and help us bully them back. You were better to me than my father."
"Moreover, when you were young, you never looked down on us because of relying on your extremely high Profound Dao realm.
Unlike that idiot from the Ximen family. Looking like a human but acting like a dog. One set in front of people, another set behind their backs. Nostrils facing the sky all day long, acting like having high cultivation is amazing."
Xiao Feng... He was a high-quality youth of compulsory education; he wouldn't show off to a group of people who were still "children" at that time.
"Hey, hey, look quick, look quick. It's that idiot." Qi Panjian pulled Xiao Feng's sleeve, his excited soul voice transmitting over, signaling with his eyes for Xiao Feng to look to the left.
Xiao Feng turned his head to look and happened to see the person Qi Panjian pointed at. And that person was also currently looking at him...
This person wore a gold-threaded white-patterned shirt and held a fan in his hand. His appearance was delicate and pretty, looking like a graceful young master.
"He is called Ximen Qing. He is the eldest son of the Ximen Patriarch. He is now at the sixth level of the Divine Spirit Realm.
His age is the same as yours, both eighteen years old. At that time, he crossed a four-fold lightning tribulation!
The person from the Ximen family who wants to marry my sister is him!" Qi Panjian informed him of the other party's information through soul voice.
Seeing Xiao Feng also looked over, he was not awkward. He smiled faintly at Xiao Feng and the others, then turned his head away to look at the city gate.
"Pei! Truly a nauseating smile. An idiot. Now pretending to look like a human again..." Qi Panjian's spurning soul voice transmitted to Xiao Feng once again.
Xiao Feng...
However, Xiao Feng also kept an eye out. To be hated by Qi Panjian like this, this person was "not simple."
"Look quick! Look quick! Qi Qingyun has come." The people in front of the city gate were the first to discover Qi Qingyun's arrival. Soon, the news swept through the entire city extremely quickly along with the voices.
"Where? Where is she!"
"There! Over there! Look quick, so beautiful..."
"Hiss! She... Her cultivation... is already at the peak of the Divine King Realm, only one step away from Divine Sovereign!" A Divine King Realm powerhouse voiced out in shock.
"What did you say?"
"Real or fake? She is only eighteen years old!"
As people constantly and clearly stated that the Profound Dao aura Qi Qingyun released at this moment was indeed Divine King Level 10, it made everyone believe this terrifying fact.
An eighteen-year-old Divine King... What terrifying Profound Dao talent was this?
"Even in the Divine Kingdoms ruled by True Gods, she would definitely be a supreme heaven's chosen!"
Yet Xiao Feng turned a deaf ear to this. He just silently gazed at the white-clad woman walking slowly toward them. Not seen for several years, she had become more mature, and also bigger...
"..."
Qi Qingyun, dressed in white, walked slowly. Black hair like a waterfall draped over her fragrant shoulders.
Her features were absolutely beautiful but revealed an ice-coldness that chilled people's hearts, just like a heavenly fairy from the Moon Cold Palace untainted by worldly dust.
Her graceful figure set off the full richness before her chest.
A pair of starry eyes swept over the crowd and finally fixed on Xiao Feng's position. Xiao Feng met her gaze.
The noise of the world seemed to have disappeared. There were no impurities in the eyes of both parties. Like flowing clouds and water, they reflected each other respectively...
If only it could be like the first meeting...
