The Invincible Doctor of the Female Village Chief

Liu Zixuan murmured to himself and then stood up from the array base.

He stretched a bit and casually glanced around, but after a glance, he was petrified on the spot.

"Where... where are those spiritual qis? Why have they suddenly become so thin?" 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"Isn’t it your fault for being such a monster!" The beautiful master and the Willow Association’s ancestor heard the commotion inside and walked in.

The Willow Association’s ancestor looked Liu Zixuan up and down, frowned, and suspiciously said, "Something seems a bit odd."

"What’s odd?" The beautiful master asked anxiously, also worried that the earlier intense spiritual qi might have unintentionally harmed Liu Zixuan.

"You don’t need to look; my current realm is indeed at the peak of the Imperial Realm, but my cultivation technique, inner strength, and physique have all surpassed the limits." Liu Zixuan shrugged slightly with a smile, "So, I am now at the peak of the Imperial Realm, yet possess half-step Emperor Realm strength!"

The Willow Association’s ancestor’s mouth twitched several times, "Freak, truly a freak! Ordinary martial artists wouldn’t even dream of breaking through from the peak of the Imperial Realm to the half-step Emperor Realm in less than decades, even a cultivation genius with good talent would need more than a dozen years, but you have directly crossed this threshold!"

"He, ah, can’t handle too much praise, flatter him more, and he might fly away!" The beautiful master laughed and walked up to Liu Zixuan, "Congratulations, you’ve gotten stronger again!"

Liu Zixuan grinned, "Actually, I still miss the days of a lower realm, at that time, I couldn’t defeat you, and every time after teasing you, there was an uncontrollable excitement, but now, with my realm higher and strength stronger, it seems the desire to conquer isn’t there anymore!"

"So it seems it’s not love for me, just a kind of curiosity, huh." The beautiful master murmured, pretending to be upset.

Liu Zixuan quickly shook his head and playfully smiled, "No, no, no, it’s definitely love, just changed from being protected to protecting you."

Saying that he solemnly gazed into the beautiful master’s enchanting eyes, "Even though my realm is higher, my power is stronger, and I am different from before, but..."

"But what?" Seeing him so serious, the beautiful master also became serious.

"But I’m even more flirtatious now!" Liu Zixuan immediately laughed mischievously, pulled the beautiful master into his arms, and kissed her white cheek loudly!

The Willow Association’s ancestor, seeing this scene, had several black lines appear on his forehead, shook his head helplessly, clasped his hands behind his back, walked outside, and murmured, "You young people don’t consider the feelings of an old single dog like me at all!"

The beautiful master rolled her eyes at Liu Zixuan, "Someone is watching!"

"So what if they’re watching, Young Master’s power has greatly increased; I fear no one. If anyone points fingers, I’ll slap them directly!" Liu Zixuan boasted.

"Alright, stop fooling around. You’ve been to the Seven-Star Tomb, your realm has improved, now you’re ready to face stronger enemies. Before you leave, go chat with Ye Lianyi for a bit, and afterwards you can chat with your brothers too."

After speaking, the beautiful master also headed outside.

Liu Zixuan pouted, "You little tease, always finding an excuse to run away at critical moments. Just you wait, someday I’ll make sure you won’t have the strength to leave within five meters of me!"

Coming out of the Pill Pavilion, Liu Zixuan effortlessly made his way into the Medical Immortal Sect.

After some inquiries, he learned that Ye Lianyi was in her room, so he recalled the old route and headed towards the courtyard.

Before even entering the door, he heard a beautiful sound of zither music that was like flowing water and melodious birdsong, instantly calming people down.

Liu Zixuan softly stepped in, and at a glance saw Ye Lianyi sitting in the middle of the yard, her white slender fingers gently playing a long zither.

Today, Ye Lianyi was truly like a fairy descending from beyond the Nine Heavens.

Because she used the Youthful Appearance Technique, she had a kind of youthful innocence like a little girl. She wore a white chiffon dress, and as the breeze gently blew, she played the long zither, really looking like a celestial maiden descending to earth, exuding unparalleled purity.

Liu Zixuan didn’t interrupt the music, casually sat in the courtyard, rested his chin on his hand, and quietly watched and listened.

The melody gradually faded, Ye Lianyi looked up at Liu Zixuan, who seemed quite enchanted, and smiled, "When did you get here?"

"I’ve been here for a while. Seeing you so absorbed in playing, I didn’t disturb you." Liu Zixuan said, regaining his composure, stood up, and walked towards Ye Lianyi, taking out the Ghost Gate Needle, "Returning this to you."

"You keep it."

As Ye Lianyi hugged the zither and walked towards the house, she said, "I heard from the Sect Leader that you are going to the Witch Country soon. Going to foreign lands, you’ll surely encounter some dangers, and this Ghost Gate Needle can be of some use in your hands."

"But didn’t you say before this Silver Needle had some special significance for you?" Liu Zixuan asked in confusion.

Ye Lianyi motioned for Liu Zixuan to sit while she brewed him a cup of tea with her own hands, smiled, and said, "It does have unique significance, but my matter involving it can’t be resolved for the time being, so you use it first. When I need it, I’ll ask you for it."

Liu Zixuan hesitated a little before putting the Ghost Gate Needle away, "What exactly is the matter? Tell me, maybe I can help!"

"That help, you cannot provide." Ye Lianyi shook her head, "At least, you can’t help for now. So don’t ask me, I won’t tell you. Just take good care of that Kun Needle, make sure it doesn’t get damaged."

"Alright." Liu Zixuan could tell that Ye Lianyi had some difficult secret and didn’t press further.

"When are you leaving?" Ye Lianyi asked.

"Should be tomorrow. Those guys should be returning with the bracelet either today or tomorrow, I have to retrieve the bracelet before they get the treasure, and if possible, bring that treasure back to Star Sea too."

In his words, Liu Zixuan was filled with endless anger towards those from the Sakura Sect, and it was this anger that made his demeanor extremely serious at that moment.

Ye Lianyi, seeing him this way, was momentarily stunned and blurted out, "You actually look quite handsome when you’re serious. A man fighting for his family, for his country, that’s a true hero!"

Hearing this, Liu Zixuan playfully smiled, "Since I’m leaving, before I go, can you show this hero your real face?"

Ye Lianyi was taken aback, then stood up and smiled, "Sorry, it’s not that I’m unwilling to show you, but I really have a difficult secret. Maybe later, when I’ve resolved that, I’ll face everyone with my true face."

"Seems like I don’t have that fortune for now." Liu Zixuan spread his hands helplessly.

Ye Lianyi chuckled, "You really want to see it that much? What if my real face is extremely ugly and scares you?"
