Mortal To Immortal (Book 1)
MTI 176 - You Didn't Say
Dozens of people came to the Jade Treasure Shop of the Snow Fox City branch. These were the people who had received treatment from Yao Han. They were curious about Yao Han's true identity, but did not dare to ask Yao Han directly.
There were two people they had come to get answers to ascertain their previous wild conjecture. Who else if not Zhao Yi and Zhao Er. Whether by chance or not, these two people were seen outside the Jade Treasure Shop while chatting casually.
"Ah, the sky blessed the Jade Treasure Shop by sending you in bulk as a customer." Zhao Yi smiled broadly at the huge profits the shop had gained under his watch.
"Manager Zhao, we're not here to buy things, but to ask you something."
"Ah, very unfortunate. What do you want to ask?" Zhao Yi responded casually.
"Do you know Physician Yao?"
"Tabib Yao? I can't say I know her, but at least I know her true identity "
"Well, there it is. As you know, we gave the nickname Blue Lotus Physician to Physician Yao, but then we only realized this nickname was the same as the nickname of the East Wind disciple whose appearance you had spread some time ago. After thinking back, is it possible that our guess is correct?"
Zhao Yi and Zhao Er looked at each other then laughed loosely, making the people who came this confused.
Meanwhile, the Jade Treasure Shop employee who saw the two only smiled faintly as he already knew Yao Han's true identity. Indeed, in Snow Fox City, so far only the Jade Treasure Shop parties knew the truth and deliberately kept it a secret.
"When I heard that you guys gave the same nickname as Senior East Wind disciples, I could only laugh. And you just realized it? Ahaha!"
"So, that Physician Yao is really an East Wind disciple?"
"really. Brother Yao, Physician Yao, and Blue Lotus Physician are the same person."
"Why didn't you say that before?!" Some of them screamed stifledly, feeling uneasy with Zhao Yi and Zhao Er.
"Now you know. That's all you want to ask, isn't it? Then I'll finish my business first." Zhao Yi went inside followed Zhao Yi while giggling amusedly.
The customers who heard their conversation became noisy and whispered to each other. The relaxed attitude of the two store officials was quite reasonable with the existence of Yao Han, because the Jade Treasure Tower was already widely known for establishing business relations with the East Wind. However knowing the existence of the East Wind disciples in their city gave a shocking effect that was more horrendous than the news of the great war of cultivators.
On the other hand, Bing Lizi who was stealing heard the conversation of the people with Heavenly Senses telling Yao Han.
"They already know who you really are, Xiao Han."
Yao Han smiled wryly, "I didn't know this would be a good thing or not. I hope there's no troublesome problem."
"What problem would you get with Senior Feng's big name?" chirp Yutian.
"Based on a stupid snake, you don't seem to know Han'er's character alone." Meirong chimed in which made Yao Han laugh softly.
And sure enough, in less than an hour, the Snow Fox City had become excited due to the news of the existence of the East Wind disciple who was none other than Physician Yao, the Great Physician Yao, the young man they knew opened a medicine house and had a way of paying for strange services that they first knew about.
"It's rare to see you come straight here, Mayor. It's usually your subordinates who come to buy resources." Zhao Yi welcomed Xue Huli's arrival warmly.
Xue Huli only smiled faintly, "Manager Zhao, I think you know why I came here. Why didn't you tell me right away that Senior East Wind disciple was in town?"
Mayor Xue's attitude looked disinclined at Zhao Yi. Although his position was not very high, but his background as one of the largest and richest groups in the entire Blue Moon Continent made Zhao Yi's position above Xue Huli.
"Don't misunderstand, Mayor. I was surprised when he suddenly came here. But I'm confused, why should I tell you?"
Xue Huli chuckled softly, "If you tell me earlier, I can at least give you a welcome."
Zhao Yi's two eyebrows rose together, "Greetings, huh? Oh, I'll make sure he doesn't like that. I'll tell you one thing, Mayor. Despite his great background, Brother Yao did not like being treated special. That's all I can conclude after being acquainted with her for quite some time."
"Where might it be. You must be kidding."
"Very likely. Why do you think he opened a medical house in this town and let his visitors pay what they can? If not for his humble attitude, they would have paid a great price for his great service."
Xue Huli was silent for a long time then left the Jade Treasure Shop. Thinking for a while, Xue Huli along with her subordinates headed towards Yao Han's medicinal home.
When meeting Yao Han in person, Xue Huli was at a loss to act. It was only the first time that Xue Huli had met such a friendly and frightening youngster at the same time, making her somewhat nervous and trembling.
"You're Mayor? Ah, sorry I didn't welcome you so well."
"Not a big deal, I should be the one to apologize for not giving a good reception. It's an honor for our city because you came here."
Yao Han tried to hide his feet smile, "The mayor is too shy. So, what can I do for you?"
Xue Huli had come only to meet with Yao Han without any intention of seeking treatment or anything like that. However due to being asked so, Xue Huli could only pretend to have complaints on her body.
"Is that so? Let me check, Mayor."
Yao Han clasped Xue Huli's hand and found no meaningful complaints other than the pill poison content in large quantities that hindered the practice. For the entire time, Yao Han used the Poison God Technique to clear away the pill poison.
After being 'treated', Xue Huli's practice had improved and almost reached the peak Earth Foundation stage. Xue Huli also asked Yao Han to do the same to her subordinates, even though her subordinates had no intention of being treated.
Because his feelings were in a good mood, Xue Huli was willing to pay Yao Han's services for herself and all of her subordinates that she brought back then.
Yao Han got about five hundred spirit stones. Afterwards, Xue Huli and her subordinates left with wide smiles while carrying each one a Blue Lotus Flower.
