Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 870: Chapter 867: Finally Meeting the One I Love

Xu Canghai’s heart was unable to stay calm.

He had heard his daughter mention Xu Wendong before, but he hadn’t expected that this fellow would have cultivated to the Foundation Establishment Peak level.

This cultivation level might not be very strong in the Kunlun Mountains Minor World, but in the mortal world, it definitely counts as a top-notch expert.

Jian Chi said, ”Sect Leader, our Sword Pavilion disciple encountered an Illusionary Serpent during the assessment and lost their mind. Fortunately, Friend Xu stepped forward, slew the Illusionary Serpent, and saved our Sword Pavilion disciple!”

Upon hearing these words, the Golden Core Stage Realm experts from the Sword Pavilion couldn’t help but gasp.

They knew that the Hunting Ground of the Huang Family had a powerful Illusionary Serpent, one that even they found difficult to defeat.

Yet Xu Wendong, a mere junior at the Foundation Establishment Peak, succeeded — how could this not be shocking?

”Thank you, Friend Xu, for everything you’ve done for our Sword Pavilion. Please, this way!” Xu Canghai made a gesture of invitation, leading Xu Wendong towards the grand hall.

Xu Wendong hesitated for a moment, then couldn’t help but say, ”Sect Leader Xu, may I see Sister Fan?”

Xu Canghai said, ”Alright.”

Saying that, he changed direction and brought Xu Wendong to a gigantic cavern in the back mountain.

Various colored Night Pearls hung high on the cavern roof, emitting a gentle glow that illuminated the entire cave.

These Night Pearls varied in size and color, with reds, blues, greens, yellows... They were distributed irregularly on the roof.

As if they were brilliant stars descending upon the mortal world.

In the center of the cave was a jade coffin over two meters long. It was pale green throughout, with exquisite patterns engraved on the surface, giving an impression of nobility and mystery.

Beside the jade coffin were white jade walls, each carved with ancient words and patterns, filled with a mysterious aura.

The entire cave was imbued with a mysterious and solemn atmosphere, like an ancient relic that fills one with awe.

Here, time seemed as if suspended; everything became quiet and peaceful.

And by the jade coffin.

There was a beautiful woman in her thirties, dressed in a flowing white gown.

The gown was light and airy, like a blossoming white lotus.

Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, and there was a slight melancholy in her eyes.

Her nose was high and prominent, her lips red and teeth white, with hair cascading like a waterfall over her shoulders, gently swaying with her movements.

At this moment, she was looking at Xu Fan in the jade coffin with a sorrowful face.

Upon hearing footsteps, she turned to look. When she saw Xu Wendong, she slightly furrowed her brows, seemingly surprised to see a stranger here.

Xu Canghai addressed Si Youyou, ”Junior Sister, he is the one Fanfan always talks about, from the mortal world!”

Si Youyou suddenly understood but was also surprised by Xu Wendong’s presence.

”Senior, I heard that Sister Fan’s mother passed away when she was born, but...” Xu Wendong awkwardly paused, unable to continue.

Si Youyou smiled radiantly: ”You mean to say that I resemble Fanfan?”

Xu Wendong nodded: ”Very much alike.”

Si Youyou said, ”I’m Fanfan’s aunt, and her mother and I are twins!”

Xu Wendong had a sudden realization.

He also envied Xu Canghai.

Because he could clearly see that the relationship between Xu Canghai and Si Youyou was definitely not just that of senior brother and junior sister.

Without a doubt, the two of them had already become a Daoist couple.

As for him.

Though he had many beautiful confidantes, he did not have twin sisters.

”We thought that living in the mortal world for so long would reshape Fanfan’s Innate Sword Bone.” Xu Canghai sighed, ”Though her Innate Sword Bone was indeed reshaped, her Sword Heart has flaws. She fell into a coma upon returning.”

”We’ve tried many methods, none of which revived her, and had no choice but to place her in the jade coffin to protect her well.”

Si Youyou spoke softly: ”Fanfan woke up several times midway and during that time, she mentioned you.”

”She said she was sorry to you.”

Xu Wendong walked up to the jade coffin and saw the woman he had yearned for day and night, lying quietly within, appearing as if she were merely asleep.

Despite her rosy cheeks, Xu Wendong could no longer sense her heartbeat or pulse.

He murmured, ”Warm Jade, can it truly wake Sister Fan?”

Xu Canghai sighed, eyes full of helplessness: ”Aside from Warm Jade, we can’t think of another way to wake Fanfan up. We just don’t know if I can hold out until then.”

Xu Canghai was a Golden Core Stage Ninth Layer Peak expert, stuck at this realm for centuries. If he could not transform his Golden Core into a Nascent Soul by the year’s end, he would face the end of his life.

Si Youyou, standing beside him, showed a hint of sorrow upon hearing this.

She truly did not want her senior brother to turn to dust!

Xu Wendong hesitated for a moment, then said, ”Senior, the cultivation technique I practice involves dual cultivation, which can heal many maladies. If you have no objections, I can try.”

Xu Canghai paused, then shook his head: ”I know you are deeply connected with Fanfan. If she wakes, I wouldn’t mind allowing you two to become Daoist partners.”

”But this concerns Fanfan’s life and death. If you can heal Fanfan, great, but what if you fail?”

”She can’t endure this kind of ordeal now!”

Xu Wendong remained silent, as he was not completely confident in healing Xu Fan through dual cultivation.

He understood that if he failed, Xu Fan would lose her life.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Wendong’s eyes shone with bright determination, and he said, ”Uncle Xu, I promise you, during the upcoming Nine Provinces Elite Competition, I will definitely find the Warm Jade and awaken Sister Fan!”

Xu Canghai patted Xu Wendong’s shoulder with relief: ”Do your best, but don’t put too much pressure on yourself!”

”Actually, regardless of whether you find the Warm Jade, what matters is... you truly came.”

Saying this, Xu Canghai looked at the woman in the jade coffin, showing a doting smile: ”She once made a bet with me, and it’s related to you.”

”Ah?” Xu Wendong was bewildered: ”How is it related to me?”

Si Youyou smiled and said: ”When Fanfan woke for the second time, she said that one day you would cross countless mountains and waters to find the Sword Pavilion, just to see her.”

”At first, we didn’t believe it, but she won, proving we underestimated your feelings for each other.”

Xu Wendong’s emotions were mixed.

He didn’t know what kind of feelings he had for Xu Fan, as there were many women around him with whom he had been involved.

But with Xu Fan, he always maintained a friendship beyond mere friendship.

To him, Xu Fan was an extremely important woman in his life, not simply a Daoist partner.

He could be without other Daoist partners but could not be without Xu Fan!

Xu Canghai smiled at Xu Wendong: ”Don’t you want to know what benefit you’ll receive if Fanfan wins the wager?”
