Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 546: Chapter 545, Break the Shackles

Wang Yun did not expect Xu Wendong to actually bring foot-washing water to wash her feet.

After all, even Tang Xiaoxiao had never washed her feet.

She originally wanted to refuse.

But seeing Xu Wendong’s sincere eyes, Wang Yun finally chose to compromise and softly said, ”You go outside and wait for a while. Let auntie make the bed for you first!”

”Okay.”

Xu Wendong carried the foot-washing water outside.

While waiting for Wang Yun, he took out his phone and opened a novel app. Many people were following him, and many sent private messages wishing him a happy new year and all the best.

Some even recommended their novels, hoping to gain the acknowledgment of a big shot.

However, he ignored them all.

Because if it wasn’t for Tang Xiaoxiao writing a novel, he wouldn’t have downloaded this app.

Among the many private messages, he saw a message from Tang Xiaoxiao asking for his contact information, hoping to thank him for his kindness in person if there was a chance.

But Xu Wendong didn’t know how to respond.

After all, Tang Xiaoxiao didn’t like him.

If she knew it was him who supported her, she might not even accept it.

At this moment, Wang Yun walked out of the storage room, sat reluctantly on the stool, and softly said, ”Wendong, why don’t... I do it myself!”

Xu Wendong squatted on the ground and took off Wang Yun’s shoes, ”Aunt Wang, let me wash your feet just once as a younger generation. Consider it fulfilling a wish in my heart.”

When he was a child, there was a TV commercial that he could hardly bear, and whenever he saw it, he felt particularly sad.

It was a public service commercial.

A little boy, after his mother finished the chores, approached with a shaky basin of water and a big smile, calling out, ”Mom, foot bath!”

Because of this, he thought of washing Wang Yun’s feet and, in the meantime, treating her right leg.

After removing Wang Yun’s shoes and socks, Xu Wendong saw a pair of feet red and cracked from the cold, slightly swollen to the touch.

This filled him with overwhelming hatred, and his resentment towards the Xu Family grew stronger.

If the Xu Family hadn’t broken Wang Yun’s leg, she could still work as a nanny. Although being a nanny isn’t easy, it wouldn’t force her to set up a stall on the street in this cold winter.

”Did you grow up with Xu Jianghe?” Wang Yun suddenly asked.

Xu Wendong suddenly looked up, his eyes showing a look of incredulity, ”Aunt Wang, do you know Grandpa?”

Wang Yun smiled, reminiscing, ”I heard from your mother that after she married your father, they couldn’t have children. They did many tests and found it was your father’s problem.”

”They went around seeking medical advice, and eventually they met Xu Jianghe.”

”Thanks to his treatment, your mother soon became pregnant with you.”

”When the Xu Family had trouble, Xu Jianghe happened to be entering Jingdu, originally planning to help your mother with her blocked milk ducts.”

Xu Wendong felt relieved.

He had always wondered how his grandfather, a rural barefoot doctor, managed to know the eldest son of a distinguished secular family in Jingdu.

Now the puzzle in his heart had an answer.

At the same time,

His respect for Wang Yun grew even stronger.

Wang Yun clearly knew his whereabouts, yet faced interrogation and pressure from the Xu Family. Even though she lost a leg, she kept her lips sealed tight.

This alone was worthy of respect.

Thinking of this, he became more determined in his heart, by all means he must heal Wang Yun’s leg,

and destroy the Xu Family!

Thus, under the guise of washing Wang Yun’s feet, Xu Wendong massaged her feet and calves while also injecting True Qi into her body, repairing her damaged meridians and bones.

Xu Wendong nervously looked up, ”Aunt Wang, can you tell me something about my mom?”

Wang Yun shook her head, ”I don’t know much about your mother either. She gave me a very mysterious feeling, like she had no past.”

”But she was the most beautiful and gentle woman I have ever seen.”

”She was a good wife and a good mother.”

”She was proficient in every art, knowledgeable about astronomy above and geography below.”

Xu Wendong looked at the photo on the TV cabinet, feeling anxious because he didn’t know if his mother was still alive.

He didn’t know if there would be a day for mother and son to reunite.

------

Xu Wendong and Wang Yun chatted while he massaged her, and more than half an hour passed this way.

At that moment, the water in the foot basin had already turned cold.

He found a towel, helping Wang Yun dry her feet, and at the same time, a strong sense of weakness swept over him, feeling as if his energy had been drained.

It was a feeling he hadn’t experienced in a long time.

But thinking that Wang Yun would be able to return to normal tomorrow, he felt all his efforts were worthwhile.

After helping Wang Yun back to her bed,

Xu Wendong also returned to the storage room.

However, he didn’t sleep but sat cross-legged and began cultivating.

This time, cultivation turned out well.

As soon as he started, he opened his eyes wide, a streak of incredulous light flashing in his eyes.

”Is the Spiritual Energy in Jingdu really so dense?”

Xu Wendong originally intended to cultivate a bit to restore his physical strength, but he couldn’t dream that the density of Spiritual Energy in this place was far beyond his imagination.

In just a short while, one-tenth of the True Qi he expended had been restored.

At this rate,

His True Qi would be fully restored to its peak period no later than an hour, and he might even have the hope of breaking through the barrier and stepping into the Qi Refining Stage Fourth Level.

”The ancients did not deceive me. Wealth, companionship, method, and location are indeed indispensable for cultivators.”

Xu Wendong was elated inside.

He knew the richness of Spiritual Energy was because this was Jingdu.

He knew it was because there was a dragon vein underground in Jingdu.

At the same time, he also had an idea of living in Jingdu.

Because he knew

if he lived in Jingdu, his path of cultivation would inevitably be smooth, and he would grow rapidly.

He closed his eyes again, ran the Dragon Phoenix Creation Technique, and began crazily absorbing the Spiritual Energy between heaven and earth, transforming it into True Qi, and finally storing it in his Dantian.

As the True Qi increased,

Xu Wendong also felt a long-lost sensation of swelling.

It was bloated and uncomfortable.

But his heart beat faster.

Because he knew that once released, he would break through the barrier and enter the Qi Refining Stage Fourth Level.

At the break of dawn,

Xu Wendong pressed forward with full force, controlling the True Qi in his body to break through the bottleneck and successfully stepping into the Qi Refining Stage Fourth Level, with his Dantian now even more expansive.

His strength had made tremendous progress compared to before.

Seeing the sky gradually brighten outside, Xu Wendong put on his clothes and shoes and quietly slipped out.

Since he promised Tang Xiaoxiao not to appear before her, he naturally wouldn’t break his word.

Just after Xu Wendong left the front door not long ago,

Tang Xiaoxiao, in her sleep, screamed and sat up, ”Go away, get away, don’t take my money, don’t take my money!”

She panted, looking around the bedroom, sweat the size of beans appearing on her face because, in her dream, many people were trying to snatch her manuscript royalties with clawed pandemonium.

At this time, Wang Yun entered the room, wrapped in a cotton coat, full of concern, ”Daughter, what’s wrong?”

Tang Xiaoxiao looked at her mother in disbelief, ”Mom, your leg is healed?”
