The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

Chapter 1050: Chapter 1044: Another Encounter

The middle-aged woman ordered the two youths, her words carrying a harsh tone.

It seemed she would be satisfied only if Zeng Zhipei were beaten to death.

The middle-aged man beside her furrowed his brow but didn’t stop them. He sighed, shook his head, a look of disappointment on his face.

The two youths, upon hearing the middle-aged woman’s words, sneered and charged at Zeng Zhipei.

These two youths were Zeng Zhiwei and Zeng Zhihe, twin brothers.

The middle-aged man and woman were a couple, named Zeng Qifa and Wan Xinya respectively.

Among them, Zeng Qifa was the current head of the Zeng Family in Tianxiang Manor, while Old Man Zeng Yunhe had long retreated to the background, appearing only for significant events.

The couple were the parents of Zeng Zhiwei and Zeng Zhihe, and also Zeng Zhipei’s parents!

However.

Wan Xinya was Zeng Zhipei’s stepmother.

In the past, Zeng Qifa had many romantic entanglements, sowing seeds with both Wan Xinya and Zeng Zhipei’s biological mother. After Zeng Zhipei’s mother passed away from illness, Zeng Qifa married Wan Xinya.

Zeng Qifa felt deeply guilty towards both Zeng Zhipei’s mother and Zeng Zhipei himself.

Therefore.

Under pressure from Wan Xinya, Zeng Qifa kept Zeng Zhipei within the family.

But as a result, Zeng Zhipei suffered greatly from a young age.

To put it bluntly, he was treated as an outsider within the Zeng Family, unloved since childhood, routinely bullied and humiliated.

Thus, within the Zeng Family, Zeng Zhipei grew up without status or identity, eventually becoming aimless, which led to Zeng Qifa becoming increasingly disappointed and disgusted with him.

Opposite them.

Charging at Zeng Zhipei, Zeng Zhiwei and Zeng Zhihe, were his half-brothers, accustomed to bullying him since childhood, and physical abuse was nothing unusual.

Now, hearing Wan Xinya’s words, they were preparing to teach Zeng Zhipei a lesson.

Standing aside, Lin Tian observed this scene, his brow furrowing.

He understood why Zeng Zhipei held such resentment against his family.

Watching Zeng Zhiwei and Zeng Zhihe sneer as they approached, Lin Tian contemplated whether to intervene. He didn’t have time to waste, eager to find Zeng Yunhe and obtain the Heavenly Fragrance Ancient Introduction Technique Fragments.

At this moment.

A commotion erupted at the manor’s entrance.

Zeng Zhiwei and Zeng Zhihe instinctively halted.

They turned to look towards the manor’s entrance.

Zeng Qifa and others raised their heads, following the sound.

In the courtyard, many people spun around, eyes brightening, faces lighting up with joy.

”Immortal Bi, the Divine Doctor, is here!”

Zeng Qifa exclaimed, hurriedly stepping towards the entrance.

The others, including Wan Xinya and Zeng Zhiwei, followed suit.

As for Zeng Zhipei, they simply left him behind.

”Mr. Lin, I apologize for showing you a joke!”

Zeng Zhipei awkwardly turned back, saying to Lin Tian, ”Those are my parents; our family is rather complicated...”

After thinking for a moment, Zeng Zhipei explained his family situation briefly.

Lin Tian nodded slightly, lifting his gaze towards the manor entrance.

There, a woman in a snow-white ancient-style gown was being surrounded by people, walking towards them.

The woman was very beautiful, with hair styled in Zhu Yan Ci Fa, black like a waterfall, naturally draping over her fragrant shoulders.

Her face was partially obscured by a white veil, revealing only her bright, gem-like eyes and flawless forehead.

The remaining parts of her face were hidden, exuding a mysterious beauty.

The ancient-style long skirt was very loose, but couldn’t hide her stunning slender figure.

As she walked, her lithe silhouette swayed gracefully.

”Cultivator, Qi Refining Fifth Level!”

Lin Tian glanced at the approaching woman, secretly surprised.

Behind her were two young men, looking arrogant, with Qi Refining Ninth Level cultivation, strong auras!

At this moment.

Zeng Qifa and many of Jinling City’s prominent figures all showed ingratiating smiles towards the woman, flattering words cascading endlessly.

”Mr. Lin, this is the female fairy doctor I mentioned to you before.”

Beside Lin Tian, Zeng Zhipei explained.

Lin Tian nodded slightly, withdrawing his gaze.

After Zeng Qifa and the others led the woman into the villa, he said to Zeng Zhipei, ”Where’s your grandfather? Just take me to see him!”

”Ah...”

Zeng Zhipei looked surprised, then hesitantly said, ”Mr. Lin, you’re... you’re in such a hurry? My grandfather must be in the furnace chamber now, suppressing my sister Zeng Yumei’s illness; it’s impossible to enter. Previously, a National Master of Chinese Medicine taught my grandfather a technique to heal and suppress the illness. Every three days, my grandfather must treat her...”

”But with this situation, perhaps my sister’s illness has erupted fiercely! Inviting the female fairy doctor surely took many efforts! Mr. Lin, how about we go inside and wait?”

Hearing this, Lin Tian frowned slightly.

However.

Ultimately, he agreed.

Since Zeng Yunhe was healing Zeng Yumei, it was unwise to disturb him.

Forcing an entry might worsen the patient’s condition.

Lin Tian entered the villa hall with Zeng Zhipei, unnoticed by others.

Everyone, including Zeng Qifa and other Zeng Family seniors, were engaged in conversation with the veiled woman.

Lin Tian faintly heard some discussing Zeng Yumei’s condition.

”Immortal Bi, my daughter’s illness has erupted, making it increasingly difficult to suppress. Moreover, the more we suppress it, the more severe it becomes!”

Zeng Qifa spoke with concern, respectfully addressing the woman, ”We’ve consulted numerous National Masters of Chinese Medicine, but none could help! Can you, Immortal Bi, cure her? If you can save my daughter, the Zeng Family will forever be grateful!”

”Hmph! Ignorance!”

Before the woman spoke, a young man behind her snorted, ”Those so-called masters are all incompetent, fame-seeking impostors. You dare compare them to our Senior Sister Bi? Truly fearless in ignorance!”

Upon hearing this, Zeng Qifa’s face fell, but he dared not speak up.

The veiled woman waved her hand, nodded, and spoke with a melodious voice, like heavenly music, ”From your description, I can roughly understand. This is an innate disease, quite tricky; I can’t claim to be completely certain! But, I am seventy percent confident in curing her; the rest depends on luck!”

Seventy percent?

Zeng Qifa and others were astounded.

Seventy percent was already a very high probability.

The Heavenly Disease afflicting Zeng Yumei was akin to an incurable illness; Huaxia’s top masters couldn’t even guarantee half a percent.

”Sister, how long have you been here!”

Suddenly.

A cheerful voice came from the doorway.

Two tall, slender figures ran in from the villa entrance, carrying waves of fragrance.

In the hall, everyone looked up at the two youthful beautiful girls who appeared, their eyes lighting up.

The cheerful voice echoed in Lin Tian’s ears, somewhat familiar. He looked up, surprised.

”Why, it’s them!”

Lin Tian’s expression slightly froze, blinking in astonishment, feeling strange.

The two girls were none other than Bi Zhenyu and Yin Liuyin, whom Lin Tian had encountered atop a peak while retrieving the Heavenly Fragrance Ancient Introduction Technique Fragments with Zeng Zhipei.

Unexpectedly, they’d meet again here.
