I Can See Through All Things Information

Chapter 489: Chapter 322: Another Spiritual Artifact, Plague Elder_2

“Young Master Lu, please rest assured that we, the Ji Family, will take good care of the villagers in this village.”

“Ji Family Master, these villagers once suffered from leprosy. Although they have recovered now, they still retain hidden ailments.

I will leave a prescription here for someone who understands medicine to follow. They can prepare some medicinal pastes according to the prescription.

Apply it to the villagers, and after some time, even if it does not completely eliminate their hidden ailments, they should be able to recover almost to the point of a normal person.

After the Third Young Master’s body recovers, this prescription can also be used to remove the scars from sores and scabs on his face and body.”

At this point, the elder doctor spoke.

“Then I thank you on behalf of my son and the villagers,” the Ji Family Master said respectfully.

He did not dare to take it lightly when facing the elder doctor.

Thinking back on the Sword Energy Domain that the elderly had displayed earlier still left him in awe.

As someone who also practiced the Sword Dao, he felt that his Sword Dao Cultivation was nothing compared to the other’s—it was like a baby’s first steps when compared to their back, completely out of reach.

So the elder doctor went to the carriage, took out a pen and ink, and wrote out a prescription for the Ji Family Master.

Lu Qing thought for a moment and simply left a prescription as well, handing it over to the other party.

“Ji Family Master, this is a tonic prescription. Take it back and follow the instructions to treat the Third Young Master’s body. Within half a month, his body should be able to fully recover.”

“Thank you both. I, of the Ji Family, will bear this kindness and favor in mind and dare not forget it,” said the Ji Family Master as he respectfully received the prescriptions.

He also felt a bit of joy in his heart.

He had seen his youngest son’s condition earlier, and not only was his body extremely weak, but the sores and scabs on the left side of his body and face were somewhat shocking.

These two prescriptions were like sending charcoal in snowy weather, arriving just in time.

After they had finished these matters, Lu Qing and the others were finally ready to set off.

“Ji Family Master, let’s meet again if fate allows.”

After everyone got on the carriage, Lu Qing nodded slightly and slipped into the carriage.

Ma Gu flicked the whip lightly, and the carriage started to move slowly, then a stream of Qing-colored energy emerged, turning into a ray of light, and quickly drove away.

The Ji Family Master and others stood at the entrance of the village, respectfully watching the carriage go far away.

Only after the carriage had disappeared from sight did everyone retract their gaze.

“Family Head, this Young Master Lu is truly a figure akin to an immortal. No wonder the City Lord holds him in such awe and dares not offend him in the slightest,” exclaimed a Ji Family Innate.

“Indeed, and that elder is extraordinary as well. The Sword Qi like a dragon, is a realm that we, as practitioners of the sword, yearn for in our dreams,” another person from the Innate Realm similarly lamented.

“More than that, isn’t Qi Family’s fourth brother also terrifyingly strong now? I wonder where he got that gourd from. It possesses such strange and magical power, it’s hard to guess what kind of treasure it might be.”

Hearing this, several Ji Family Innates fell silent for a moment.

Indeed, they were extremely curious about this matter.

They were very clear about Qi Family’s fourth brother’s background.

Before, not only was he not strong, but his power was even a notch below theirs.

But earlier, with the help of that strange gourd, he not only reached the Great Success of Innate Realm but was also able to unleash such a terrifying power.

Even the elder who had comprehended the Sword Energy Domain could not do anything to him.

Without thinking, they knew that the gourd must be an unimaginable treasure.

Unfortunately, with Young Master Lu present, that gourd was definitely beyond their reach.

“It seems that after the spiritual energy recovery, the world has truly changed. All sorts of unimaginable events are emerging. In the future, the world might no longer be under the control of those of us in the Innate Realm.”

After a long silence, someone from the Innate Realm spoke with a sigh.

“Enough, stop lamenting. While the spiritual energy recovery has made the world strange and difficult to comprehend, this is also an opportunity for us.

You must have felt it too—the cultivation has been easier lately than before.

If we diligently practice without slack in the coming days, our future might not necessarily lack the profound power of Young Master Lu.”

Seeing that the Innates of his clan seemed disheartened, the Ji Family Master spoke up.

Hearing this, several Ji Family Innates were visibly shaken.

A clear light flashed in their eyes, and their faces showed signs of shame.

“Family Head is right in his reprimand. We have indeed lacked ambition.”

The Ji Family Master shook his head, for even after witnessing the power displayed by Lu Qing, his heart was also deeply moved.

However, as the Family Head, he could not allow such a disheartened spirit to spread.

Ji Family Master glanced toward the direction where the carriage had departed and walked into the village with a mix of emotions.

He pondered how to arrange for the villagers’ welfare.

Having promised to take good care of the villagers, he naturally would not break his word.

…

Unbeknownst to Lu Qing, the Ji family and others had a conversation after they left.

However, he wasn’t worried that the Ji family would go back on their word.

Not to mention that the Third Young Master Ji’s character would not allow him to do such a thing.

Even Ji Family Master didn’t seem like someone who would act so obtusely.

As the head of a clan, he should be well aware of what the consequences of deceiving him would be.

On the carriage, Uncle Hu was asking Hu Zezhi.

“Xiao Lian, where exactly did you go after leaving the city gate that day?

Your uncle wrote to me later, saying you never attended the Exotic Treasure Sect’s disciple induction ceremony.

And what about Brother Zheng and Miss Wang and the others?

Like you, they disappeared without a trace after leaving the city gate.

They haven’t returned to Azure Dragon City either; I’ve visited their residence several times, but no one was there.”

Uncle Hu recalled the panic he had felt upon receiving the letter from Hu Zezhi’s uncle.

If not for knowing that searching for someone in the vast Central State was as hard as reaching the heavens, and that staying in Azure Dragon City would offer better chances of receiving news,

he would have thought of leaving Azure Dragon City to search for his daughter himself.

“Dad, you don’t know; that Wang, Zheng, and the others never intended to escort daughter to the Exotic Treasure Sect that day—they had long planned to target daughter for the Xuanxin charm…

…If not for Mr. Lu and the others rescuing me, I might never have seen you again in this lifetime,” Hu Zezhi finally had the chance to tell her father the injustices she had suffered.

Hearing this, Uncle Hu was outraged and astonished.

“Those scoundrels named Zheng, to be so cruel and inhumane?

I thought of them as friends and even helped them settle in the city.

I really must have been blind!”

Uncle Hu had never imagined that the people he had entrusted her to would nearly have caused his daughter irreversible tragedy.

He felt a mix of shock, anger, and relief.

Suddenly, Uncle Hu knelt down in the carriage and started to kowtow toward Lu Qing and the elder doctor.

“Thank you, young master and elder, for saving my daughter’s life; otherwise, I, Uncle Hu, wouldn’t know how to go on with the rest of my life.”

“Uncle Hu, there’s no need for this; we were simply in the right place at the right time, and it was Miss Hu’s good fortune that turned misfortune into blessing,” Lu Qing said with a smile as he gently helped Uncle Hu back up.

“Mr. Lu, ever since her mother passed away, Xiao Lian has been my sole concern in life.

I truly cannot imagine living days without her.

In any case, your great kindness and debt, I, Uncle Hu, will never forget, and I will repay it even if it means laboring like an ox or horse in the future.”

Uncle Hu could not remain kneeling, but the gratitude on his face did not diminish one bit.

“Uncle Hu, you’re too kind,” Lu Qing reassured Uncle Hu with a few more words.

Suddenly, his expression changed subtly, and he called out softly, “Ma Gu, find a place to stop; we’ll rest there for noon.”

He then looked seriously at the elder doctor, “Master, after we stop, I need to enter seclusion for a while.”

“Is there a problem with that gourd that you need my help with?” The elder doctor, noticing Lu Qing’s expression, said with some concern.

He had, of course, seen the scene where Lu Qing acquired the Plague Gourd.

In fact, the elder doctor had long been aware of the strange treasure that Lu Qing possessed which could take in objects.

After all, Lu Qing hadn’t been making much effort to hide it.

Remembering the strangeness of that grey gourd, the elder doctor felt a bit worried.

“It’s alright, Disciple can still manage; just help me by being the protector later on,” Lu Qing replied with a light smile.
