Chapter 14: Saving Someone

He has had no visitors in the last few days. Li Nianfan's life returned to peace like before.

After filling his stomach, he went to the backyard with a fishing rod. The turtle was lying on top of a giant rock by the pond, squinting at the sunlight. Watching the turtle who looked relaxed, it was clear that there were no monsters in the pond. So where did all those fish go?

Li Nianfan has not given up. He would try it again while observing the turtle. The turtle was young, only half the age of Li Nianfan himself. It opened its eyes slightly, looking at him before lazily closing it again.

Li Nianfan smiled and threw his rope into the pool.

Hit it!

The wand curved perfectly in the air before landing right in the middle of the pond. The surface of the pool is wavy with waves while the sticks sink deeper. The water in the pool was clear as glass. However, if a person is in a pond, he will soon realize that there is not a single fish there. Even the krill he had just entered had all disappeared. Under the water, the huge phantom gradually opened his eyes and glanced at the fish hook floating in front of him. It wiggled its tail before swimming towards the deeper end of the pond, leaving a cloudy trail of gold along its path.

Half an hour later, Li Nianfan took out a fishing rod from the water. Looking at the empty hook, he looked unperturbed. Anyway, he expected this to happen.

"Any, this is very strange," Li Nianfan shook his head and muttered to himself as he looked at the turtle. "Old turtle, if only you could talk and tell me what's going on in the pool."

Unfortunately, the turtle fell asleep. It's not even flinching.

Desperately, Li Nianfan cleared the dirt from his pants and left the pool. He made a decision at that time. He would never fish from this pond again. If he wanted to eat fish, he might as well buy it from the Fallen Immortal City.

He put the fishing line back in place and closed the door. "Blackie, let's go to town."

The Fallen Immortal City was busy as usual. Auntie Zhang was walking around while holding Nanan in her hand. He called when he saw Li Nianfan, “Nanan, Mr. Li is here. Hurry up and thank him for saving you.”

A girl with braided pigtails turned around and looked at Li Nianfan blankly. He did not speak as if he had lost his soul.

Li Nianfan was shocked. "Aunt Zhang, Nanan …"

“Huh, after being captured by a monster the other day, he's been acting like this ever since he woke up. He must have been too frightened to lose his soul," Aunt Zhang sighed.

Li Nianfan frowned. He felt a knot in his chest as he recalled the cheerful expression that was once on Nanan's face.

"Aunt Zhang, is there any way to help him?" Li Nianfan asked.

“I have asked some traveling cultivators, but all they have said is to accompany and talk to him more. There is still hope to get his soul back.” Auntie Zhang hesitated for a moment before she pleaded, “Master. Li, you're an intellectual. Can you take the time to accompany Nanan? That might help!”

"I will," Li Nianfan nodded solemnly. He was determined to help her.

Auntie Zhang had a basket of eggs on her arm. "Sir. Li, you left too soon the other day. I can't thank you. Please, save this.”

Li Nianfan shook his head bitterly. “Aunt Zhang, I cannot accept this. I really didn't do much yesterday.”

"Sir. Li, you are too humble. Even the three cultivators highly praised you. Since they are cultivators, they probably won't appreciate this egg, but I hope you don't mind. ” With that, Auntie Zhang pushed the basket to him and forced Li Nianfan to keep it.

Li Nianfan had no other choice but to make them smile bitterly. After saying goodbye to Auntie Zhang and Nanan, he walked to the fish stall again.

“Pak, can I have two big goldfish?”

“Hey, Mr. Li,” greet the owner enthusiastically. “Do not buy more krill?”

“How about a turtle?” the kiosk owner frowned.

“The turtle is fine. It comes out every day to get sunshine, ” replied Li Nianfan.

"Any," said the owner, sounding puzzled.

The tortoise was fine, but where did the krill go?

Li Nianfan said indifferently, “I will not plant any more fish. I'll just buy fish from you in the future. ”

"Sir. Li, you were right to have come here. I got up early to go fishing in the lake. I can assure you that all of my fish here are fresh and delicious!” owner laughs. “Even the officers from the Eternal Dynasty came here to fight over my fish!”

Li Nianfan was amazed. "Thank you?"

“For what I lied to you! Yesterday, the Princess came shopping when she passed my stall. He said he likes to eat fish. The children of the Prime Minister and the Lord of Nations almost fought in the street because of my fish! All because they are trying to impress Princess, ” said the owner proudly. "They're all cultivators, and yet they love my fish!"

Li Nianfan stopped. He knew that Luo Shiyu did that on purpose. No wonder he hadn't visited her for a while. It seems that the plan has begun. He was only impressed by how quickly he managed to control the situation. The sons of the Lord of Nations and the Prime Minister seem rather weak!

Li Nianfan smiled and left the stall. On his way home, he saw the normally closed door suddenly open wide. A waiter came out. The sound of someone wailing came from inside the house and everyone had a grim expression on their faces. Not long after, suona's voice rang out across the street as the horse carriage stopped. Some men rushed into the house with coffins. Everyone helped bring a woman out of the house. He'll be put in a coffin.

"It looks like Chen Yuanwai's wife didn't make it."

“One body and two lives! Very tragic.”

“Chen Yuanwai and his wife are good people. Too bad."

The crowd shook their heads while sighing. Things like this happen too often. The standard of health care in the Eternal Realm was not too far from the standard in ancient times, especially during childbirth. Unless a cultivator helped, it was likely that the work process would be wrong.

Li Nianfan watched them with a serious heart. He saw that the woman had closed her eyes. He was barely breathing but he was still sweating.

Just by looking at it once, he could tell that the woman was not dead. He just fainted.

"Wait on! He's not dead!" Seeing that they were about to seal the coffin, he rushed forward.

A middle-aged man with a hoarse voice looked at him with reddened eyes. "Sir. Li, what are you doing?"

It was a tragic event. If not for Li Nianfan's good reputation, he would have turned his back on him.

“Wife and your son are not dead. I can save them!” Li Nianfan said.

"Sir. Li, are you kidding me? ” asked the middle-aged man.

The midwife beside him also looked at Li Nianfan in disbelief.

"I'm so sure!" Li Nianfan urged. “Dissolve the crowd and find someone to prepare gauze and oil lamps. I'm gonna save them now. Time is running out.”

Due to the critical time, he had to operate on it while he was still inside the coffin.
