Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 461: Chapter 331: Feng Xun Seeks Medicine

”The affairs at the estate have been very busy, so I haven’t been able to visit you until now.” Feng Xun’s reply was flawless.

This was the mode of interaction between the two, and also Feng Xun’s consistent way of interacting with others.

”Xun? Have you come to see me today for a reason?” Xue Pianran’s eyes, with black long lashes, fluttered like the wings of a butterfly in flight.

Xue Pianran knew Feng Xun well and could tell that something was unusual about his visit today.

Feng Xun was a distant person. Since he went to Daxia, he only returned to Beiqing once a year, but he did not often come to Dan Palace, and when he did, it was either to play chess with Master Chen Hongru or to discuss affairs.

Their previous meetings had always been by the book, with others present, and Feng Xun’s behavior was always respectful, never overstepping bounds.

But today, there was an urgency in Feng Xun’s eyes.

”It seems ’Pianran the Divine Calculator’s’ ability has improved once more, not letting anything slip past you.” Feng Xun said with a faint smile. ”Today, I have come to ask you for a Nirvana Heart Lotus.”

”Has your Cold Syndrome worsened?” Xue Pianran softly exclaimed, her pale, gentle hands unknowingly grasping Feng Xun’s.

Feng Xun’s brow creased ever so slightly and stealthily withdrew his hand.

Xue Pianran’s lashes trembled again, a bitter smile in her heart.

After all these years, Feng Xun was still the same, neither intimate nor cold, yet it was he who kept her concerned up to today.

Even though he had fled to Daxia in previous years to avoid her, her heart was unswervingly devoted to him.

”It is not for myself; the Nirvana Heart Lotus is meant for another purpose. One of my friends is gravely injured.” Feng Xun said, gazing intently at Xue Pianran.

In his deep black eyes, which seemed to twinkle with countless stars, caused Gu Pianran’s heart to tremble unwittingly.

Xue Pianran was clever, and though she was curious about who this friend mentioned by Feng Xun might be, she did not inquire further.

Because she was waiting for Feng Xun, waiting for the day he would take her hand and introduce her to his friends.

”Xun, you know that Nirvana Heart Lotus is extremely rare. Even for me, a Heavenly Maiden, it’s difficult to obtain.” Xue Pianran spoke slowly, carefully watching Feng Xun’s expression. ”Is that person very important to you?”

”Very important.” Feng Xun’s face was unreadable.

Xue Pianran gritted her teeth and suddenly left.

She returned after a while, only this time with an Ice Box in her hand.

”Thank you.” Feng Xun was about to take the Ice Box when his hand suddenly tightened, as Xue Pianran held onto the Box.

A blush flitted across her face as she said softly,

”Xun, during the time you remain in Beiqing, could you visit me more often?”

Nearly a plea, such words coming from a beauty like Xue Pianran would make any other man’s heart flutter.

Feng Xun, however, remained silent, not immediately responding.

Xue Pianran did not get an answer and was somewhat disheartened, but still, she smiled sweetly, handing the Box to Feng Xun, watching him leave Dan Palace until he was out of sight before reluctantly withdrawing her gaze.

”Heavenly Maiden, you are truly too indulgent towards Prince Feng. That Nirvana Heart Lotus was painstakingly gathered by you, and Master Hong Ru originally planned to refine the Nirvana Pill for you when you attempt to reach the Fang Venerate stage.” Seeing Xue Pianran’s joyful expression contrasting Feng Xun’s detached demeanor, Xue Pianran’s maid couldn’t help but feel indignant on her behalf.

Not to mention within Beiqing, even within Dan Palace, countless people admired their Heavenly Maiden, yet only that wooden Prince Feng would be so aloof, leaving such a Heavenly beauty of a fiancée behind to venture to Daxia.

”The Nirvana Pill is gone, but it can be refined. However, there’s only one Feng Xun, and I feel that Feng Xun seems different this time upon his return.” As a Heavenly Maiden, Xue Pianran not only excelled in spiritual power but also possessed extraordinary abilities in observing and interpreting others’ words and actions.

”I just hope Prince Feng comes to his senses soon and takes our Heavenly Maiden back as his bride sooner rather than later,” said the maid before receiving a glare from Xue Pianran.

Suddenly, Xue Pianran remembered something.

”Oh no, send someone to stop Prince Feng quickly. In my excitement, I forgot something very important. The Nirvana Heart Lotus should not be used carelessly.” Xue Pianran immediately sent people to intercept Feng Xun.

Outside Dan Palace, Old Sir Mu couldn’t help but speak up.

”Prince, if the Heavenly Maiden learns that you used the Nirvana Heart Lotus to treat Miss Ye’s illness, I’m afraid it may not end well. Or is it that you, Prince, are planning to...”

The influence of Dan Palace in Beiqing was so great it could eclipse royal power.

Housekeeper Mu noticed that his young master’s heart was always set on Miss Ye.

Yet the young master was indeed betrothed, and if this matter wasn’t clarified, Old Sir Mu couldn’t help but become anxious for Feng Xun.

”Teacher!” Feng Xun’s volume suddenly increased.

He stopped abruptly and said in a low voice.

”In the past, I always thought I was heartless, but now... I’ve realized that my heart is rather narrow, only able to accommodate one person. There never was a place for two. To me, Pianran is just a sister.”

Behind him, a sudden rush of footsteps approached.

Feng Xun turned around to see Xue Pianran standing not far away.

Her expression was somewhat startled, but seeing Feng Xun turn around, she quickly mustered a smile.

”Xun, I forgot to tell you just now that there will be a palace banquet in a few days. I hope you can be my male partner and accompany me to the palace,” she said.

Seeing that Feng Xun didn’t respond, Xue Pianran’s gaze flickered, waiting for an answer.

Under her sleeve, the delicately applied rouge pricked into her palm, causing a slight pain.

”Pianran, are you looking for me just to invite me to the palace banquet?” Feng Xun gazed intently at Xue Pianran.

Glancing at the ice box in Feng Xun’s hand, Xue Pianran smiled warmly.

”Consider the matter of the palace banquet and answer me later. Also... the Nirvana Heart Lotus is a Pure Yang Flower. When using it, it would be best to find a man with profound power to assist in the treatment for better efficacy.”

”Thank you for the reminder. If that’s the case, I shall take my leave,” said Feng Xun, returning the salute and then turning to leave.

He never answered whether he was willing to go to the palace banquet with Xue Pianran.

”Heavenly Maiden, why didn’t you tell Prince Feng earlier that the Nirvana Heart Lotus must be used in conjunction with Ice Dragon Whiskers for treatment, and by telling him to find a man with profound power to help, what if the person being treated is a woman, wouldn’t that be...” Behind her, Xue Pianran’s maid was puzzled.

The Heavenly Maiden was proficient in medicine, and wasn’t she originally planning to come out and tell Prince Feng about this medical taboo?

”His friend is a woman,” Xue Pianran’s voice had lost its earlier tenderness and playfulness.

The person important to Feng Xun was a woman.

Her intuition was correct; Feng Xun had indeed changed.
