Chapter 1134: Chapter 1135: Little Medical Saint
As he spoke, Ling Feng took out the Vermilion Ice Worm and instructed the Feeng Family Patriarch to extend a finger.
The Vermilion Ice Worm bit into the Feeng Family Patriarch’s finger, and the poison in his body began to be completely devoured by the Vermilion Ice Worm, bit by bit.
This poison, which could make even the Human Emperor suffer, was actually a nourishing food for the Vermilion Ice Worm.
“This… is this…?”
The Feeng Family Patriarch looked at the Ice Worm in his palm, his eyelid twitched, and suddenly remembered something, exclaiming, “Could this be the legendary Vermilion Ice Worm?”
“Indeed, as expected of the Feeng Family Patriarch. This is indeed the Vermilion Ice Worm.” Ling Feng smiled faintly, and, together with the Golden Needle, he helped guide the energy back to the source for the Feeng Family Patriarch, allowing him to recover as quickly as possible.
“It’s truly a miracle that there still exists such wondrous creatures like the Vermilion Ice Worm in this world. Meeting Brother Ling is also a stroke of fate for me.”
The Feeng Family Patriarch’s complexion grew increasingly rosy, and he gradually regained the demeanor of a patriarch. His eyelid twitched again and he suddenly recalled something, looking at Ling Feng, “Young Brother, earlier you mentioned that you were the heir of the Medical Saint, and your name is Ling, could it be that you are the descendant of Medical Saint Ling Hanyang?”
“Oh?” Ling Feng looked at the Feeng Family Patriarch with some surprise, “You know my grandfather as well?”
He hadn’t expected that his grandfather’s fame as the Medical Saint was known not only in the Sky White Empire, but also in the Heavenly Saint Empire.
“So you are the grandson of Saint of Medicine Ling, no wonder! Haha, no wonder your medical skills are so miraculous!”
The Feeng Family Patriarch couldn’t help but laugh heartily, “Heaven has not abandoned the Feeng Family!”
About seven and a half minutes later, the Vermilion Ice Worm had completely absorbed the poison in the Feeng Family Patriarch’s body, and along with Ling Feng using the Supreme Mysterious Acupuncture Technique to realign the disordered meridians, the Feeng Family Patriarch, though not in perfect condition, had regained about sixty percent of his strength.
“Little Medical Saint, I am truly grateful to you this time.”
After taking a deep breath, the Feeng Family Patriarch’s eyes flashed with a shred of killing intent, he said coldly, “Once I fully recover, tomorrow morning will be the death date of Qi Hongwu!”
Ling Feng raised an eyebrow and smiled. This Feeng Family Patriarch was indeed an extraordinary person who hadn’t let anger cloud his judgment and rush to settle the score with the Tiejian Sect Leader immediately.
“Tomorrow is likely to be a fierce battle, Little Medical Saint. Today, I’ll have to ask you to endure and stay in this separate courtyard for a night. Once I regain power, I will definitely give you a grand reception!”
“No need, no need. The name of Little Medical Saint is far beyond my reach yet.”
Ling Feng bowed politely to the Feeng Family Patriarch and then continued, “I’m feeling a bit fatigued after treating you, Elder. I see this courtyard isn’t bad, so I’ll find a place to rest for now.”
“Please, go ahead, Young Master.”
The Feeng Family Patriarch took a deep breath; the shame of the past few days would be fully avenged tomorrow!
Ling Feng, along with Tuoba Yan, left first. Fatty Huang and Lan Yingying also exchanged pleasantries with the Feeng Family Patriarch before retreating to rest, leaving only the father and daughter of the Feeng Family in the hall.
After watching Ling Feng leave, Feeng Chan confirmed again and again that her father was fine before finally breathing a sigh of relief, “Father, you’re okay now, that’s wonderful!”
“Yes, we narrowly escaped disaster!”
The Feeng Family Patriarch’s kindly expression gradually turned serious, “Chan’er, tell me, how did you meet Young Master Ling?”
“He is my brother’s friend. They met on the God Demon Battlefield, and he seems to be from the Sky White Empire. He came specifically to find my brother this time. Later, he learned about our family’s situation and found me. You know all the rest, Father.”
“Just because of his relationship with Yan’er, he risked such danger to come to our Feeng Family?”
The Feeng Family Patriarch furrowed his brow, not to suspect out of malevolence, but because, these days, even one’s own flesh and blood couldn’t always be trusted, let alone a friend he had just met a few days ago.
Feeng Chan bit her silver teeth and weakly said, “Father, I can guarantee with my life that Young Master Ling is certainly not a bad person, nor does he have any other motives.”
“No worries, Chan’er. I don’t doubt that Young Brother Ling has any ulterior motives. If he had bad intentions, why would he cure me?”
The Feeng Family Patriarch gently shook his head, “It seems we’ll have to wait until we rescue Yan’er to understand the whole backstory. Perhaps Yan’er has indeed made a good brother and friend!”
“Of course, such a talent, if he could stay with our Feeng Family…”
“Father, it’s better not to think about that. He won’t stay with our small Feeng Family.”
Feeng Chan gently bit her lips as she recounted how the two Demon Pets at Ling Feng’s command easily handled a Human Emperor-level expert to the Feeng Family Patriarch.
Upon hearing this, the Feeng Family Patriarch couldn’t help but gasp in amazement.
“Who on earth is this youngster!”
The Feeng Family Patriarch marveled, shaking his head slowly, “It’s just a pity that the woman by that Young Brother Ling’s side, though silent and reserved, seems to have quite a good relationship with that Young Brother Ling. Moreover, in terms of looks, she’s no less than you are, Chan’er. Otherwise…”
“Father!” Feeng Chan’s pretty face blushed slightly as she shot her father a glare, biting her teeth and said, “Don’t talk nonsense!”
“Haha… You little girl, since ancient times beauties have always loved heroes. Though Fungling County is big, probably only that Young Brother Ling could catch your eye.”
The Feeng Family Patriarch shook his head with a smile, “Forget about it. Children and grandchildren have their own good fortune. If you have a destiny with him, that’s naturally the best. If not, it can’t be forced. I’ve barely escaped with my life, and tomorrow… hmm!”
Saying this, the Feeng Family Patriarch’s eyes flashed with a cold light as he gripped his increasingly strong fists tightly: “Tomorrow will be the day Qi Hongwu meets his end!”
Feeng Chan nodded with hatred. What Qi Hongwu did to her father was unforgivable. Even if she were more kind-hearted, she wouldn’t show an ounce of mercy to such scum.
Tomorrow will be the day Qi Hongwu is buried!
Ling Feng’s Room.
Tuoba Yan gave Ling Feng a sidelong glance, a bit jealously, “Hey, you seem really concerned about Second Miss Feeng. What’s the matter, planning to stay and become a son-in-law?”
“Where did that come from?”
Ling Feng rolled his eyes, speechless, “This is about saving Feeng Yan. Who else in the world has the Blood Jade Spring Flower that I know of other than Feeng Yan?”
“Hmph, who knows!”
Tuoba Yan lightly bit her silver teeth, and her face showed disbelief.
Ling Feng was both amused and exasperated, “Yan’er, why are you suddenly concerned about this?”
“Humph, mind your own business!”
Tuoba Yan’s face turned red all of a sudden, realizing she was acting out of place. She gave Ling Feng a hard look, pushed open the door, and rushed out.
“Uh…”
Watching Tuoba Yan’s departing figure, Ling Feng couldn’t help but scratch his head, muttering, “Utterly bewildering, just baffling!”
