Longevity Reward Redemption: The Immortal Clan Starts with Farmers

52: Healing the tough guy bun, the pinnacle of blood refining!Finally, just as Chen Changsheng was about to curse his mother in frustration after failing so many times...

...a pot of Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment was finally successfully refined!

”Hehe, after wasting over a hundred sets of medicinal ingredients, I finally didn’t make a mistake this time. Let me see what you look like!”

Chen Changsheng spoke with a hint of gritted teeth as he slowly lifted the lid of the Alchemy Furnace.

A mass of paste-like medicinal liquid with a warm luster, resembling black jade, lay quietly in the furnace. With just one look, anyone could sense the extraordinary nature of this medicine; it looked like a luxurious work of art.

”It looks quite good. When I sell it in the future, I’ll have to charge a bit more silver!”

Chen Changsheng said with a look of surprise. He then verified it through its appearance and scent, finding it perfectly matched the knowledge in his mind. He confirmed that this was the finished Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment!

”I just don’t know if your efficacy is as stunning as your appearance!”

Chen Changsheng took a porcelain bottle, filled it with the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment from the furnace, and went to the backyard to find Steamed Bun, intending to fulfill his original promise.

”Steamed Bun, the medicine is ready. Do you want to try it?”

Entering the backyard, Chen Changsheng saw Steamed Bun lying quietly in a corner. He walked over, held the porcelain bottle in front of Steamed Bun, and said with a smile.

”Okay!”

Steamed Bun’s speech remained concise, his expression like a block of ice. However, a sharp glint flashed through his cloudy eyes; though it was gone in an instant, Chen Changsheng still caught it.

”Are you an ice block? You’re clearly very happy, yet you’re still keeping a cold face. How about this: give me a smile, and I’ll apply the medicine for you!”

Chen Changsheng intended to change Steamed Bun’s lonely and cold personality and help him integrate into the big family, so he purposely tried to make him laugh!

Steamed Bun stared straight at Chen Changsheng. After holding it in for a long time, he finally revealed a smile that looked worse than crying. If he went out at night with that face, he would definitely scare children so much they wouldn’t be able to sleep.

”Ahem, you’d better not smile in the future. You’re more suited to being a cool guy!”

Chen Changsheng said helplessly. He then opened the porcelain bottle and became serious, saying to Steamed Bun with a solemn expression:

”Take off your shirt. I have to break your malformed bones and reset them. Only then can the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment take effect. This process will be a bit painful, so bear with it!”

Steamed Bun didn’t even blink, seemingly not caring about the pain of breaking bones at all. He neatly took off his shirt, rolled up his pant legs, and prepared for the application of the medicine.

Looking at Steamed Bun’s body, Chen Changsheng gasped. That lean physique was densely covered with numerous knife and sword scars, and there was even the mark of a piercing wound near his heart.

He didn’t know how many thrilling life-and-death battles this man had experienced, and yet he had miraculously survived. He was truly lucky to be alive!

Chen Changsheng took a deep breath, cleared his mind, walked to Steamed Bun’s side, and began the first step of the treatment—breaking the bones!

After all, Chen Changsheng was also a peak Flesh Refining Martial Artist, with strength reaching a thousand catties; breaking a person’s bones wasn’t difficult!

To minimize Steamed Bun’s pain, following the principle that short-term pain is better than long-term suffering, Chen Changsheng quickly re-broke Steamed Bun’s clavicle!

”Humph!”

Lying on his side, Steamed Bun let out a soft grunt and then remained as still as a robot, as if the bones being broken belonged to someone else!

Seeing how tough this guy was, Chen Changsheng took the opportunity to reset the clavicle, applied the crucial Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment, and wrapped them with cloth strips!

During this process, aside from that initial grunt, Steamed Bun didn’t make a single sound.

”Steamed Bun, if it hurts, just cry out. No one will laugh at you!”

Chen Changsheng felt the pain for him and offered comfort, but Steamed Bun only gave him a cold look and spoke two words.

”It’s nothing. Continue!”

Helpless, Chen Changsheng followed the steps, breaking Steamed Bun’s arm and leg bones in turn. After resetting them, he applied the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment and finally wrapped them in cloth strips!

”Alright, you can take off the bandages in seven days. If the efficacy is correct, you’ll not only be able to walk freely but also recover your martial arts!”

After finishing the bone-setting, Chen Changsheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded with satisfaction. Breaking and resetting bones was quite taxing, but fortunately, he completed it smoothly without any errors!

”Thank you!”

Steamed Bun gave Chen Changsheng a deep look, and after a long while, he nodded slightly and said his thanks!

Chen Changsheng laughed and grabbed Steamed Bun’s hand, saying, ”You’re with me now, so of course I’ll take care of you. Don’t worry, I, Chen Changsheng, value loyalty above all else!”

Just then, Chen Changsheng felt his palm getting sticky. He let go and saw that his hand was actually covered in blood!

Looking at Steamed Bun’s palm, there were several deep wounds. To endure the pain without making a sound, this guy had clenched his fists so hard that his fingernails pierced his palms, causing blood to flow!

What a freak!

This kid was a tough guy to a perverse degree. In his past life, even a fracture required anesthesia, but this guy not only didn’t use any but also endured it without a word. Chen Changsheng had previously thought the kid had no pain receptors.

As it turned out, he was just toughing it out!

Truly a tough guy to the point of being a freak!

”Steamed Bun... I think you should change your name. Something like Rock or Hard Bone would suit you better!”

Chen Changsheng sighed with sincere emotion as he helped Steamed Bun into the house.

In the following days, Chen Changsheng began renovating the medical clinic. He hired people to connect four wing rooms and a warehouse to create a large dormitory.

He also bought daily necessities for the children and, considering they were of school age, hired a literacy teacher for them.

Finally, in the black market of Temple Street, he found a martial arts Cultivation Technique that could allow one to Cultivate to the Bone Refining Realm, intending to teach the children martial arts!

As for the Chen family’s Five Elements Origin Cultivation Art, that was the family’s greatest secret and was never shared with outsiders!

Seven days later, Chen Changsheng went to the room where Steamed Bun lived to check on his recovery.

Hearing Chen Changsheng’s call, Steamed Bun opened the door and strode out—he actually wasn’t using crutches!

Seeing this, a look of surprise and joy appeared on Chen Changsheng’s face. This Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment was indeed a divine medicine; it really could heal broken bones within seven days!

”Steamed Bun, wait until I remove the bandages, then try and see if your martial arts have recovered!”

Chen Changsheng excitedly walked up to Steamed Bun, patted his shoulder, and then unwrapped the bandages around his body!

”Steamed Bun... quickly try it. Have your martial arts recovered?”

Chen Changsheng urged. Steamed Bun scanned the courtyard, his gaze locking onto a large Bluestone left over from building the dormitory.

He quietly walked to the Bluestone, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath. Then, the sound of blood and Qi flowing echoed from his body, like a surging river; Chen Changsheng could even hear a rushing sound!

*Pfft!*

Suddenly, Steamed Bun opened his eyes and threw a punch like a bolt of lightning toward the stone!

The large Bluestone, as if made of clay, was actually punched through by Steamed Bun’s fist, leaving a hole clean through it!

The scene instantly fell silent!

Chen Changsheng swallowed hard, his face twitching slightly. He spoke in a hoarse voice, filled with disbelief:

”Steamed Bun, what exactly is your martial Realm?”

Steamed Bun withdrew his arm from the Bluestone, calmly brushed off the dust, and said coldly:

”Blood Refining Peak!”
