As she spoke, she curtsied towards Ye Yuan again.
Ye Yuan hurriedly performed a supporting hand gesture and said smilingly, “Miss need not be so polite! So, turns out that Miss’s name is called Li-er. What a nice name.”
“Mister is too kind. I still don’t know how to address mister,” Li-er asked.
Ye Yuan said, “This one is surnamed Ye. Given name is one word, Yuan.”
“So, it’s Mister Ye. Then please Mister ye, do a diagnosis for Li-er,” as she said this, Li-er reached her delicate arm out again.
“Miss Yan-er, now, can I help Miss Li-er take a look yet?” Ye Yuan did not reach out immediately. Instead, he faced Yan-er and asked.
Yan-er pouted and said huffily, “Miss already agreed. What’s the use if I don’t agree?”
Ye Yuan burst into laughter and reached two fingers out to put on Li-er’s wrist.

When he saw Li-er’s slender and exquisite arm, Ye Yuan could not help being stunned.
Her arm was glossy and clear, akin to fine white tallow jade as if it did not belong in the mortal realm.
This arm could virtually be described using the word perfect.
Looking at Li-er’s appalling looks again, Ye Yuan felt extremely strong contrast!
Ye Yuan felt very suspicious. How could two of such extremes appear on a girl at the same time?
“Mister Ye?” Li-er voiced out a reminder.
Ye Yuan only recovered then and laughed awkwardly. “Apologies. I lost focus.”
Finished talking, Ye Yuan shut his eyes and purged distracting thoughts. He began diagnosing Li-er.
Ye Yuan’s eyebrow gradually knitted together, becoming increasingly creased and deep.
Seeing Ye Yuan’s appearance, Li-er asked, “Did Mister Ye make out something?”
At this time, Ye Yuan let go of Li-er’s wrist. That creamy feel at his fingertips unwittingly made his mind wander.
That sort of touching sensation actually led people to reminiscence endlessly!
Ye Yuan could not help sighing inwardly. How could such a girl have a face like this? What a shame!
Yan-er saw Ye Yuan’s reminiscing look and knew that his thoughts were running wild.
Towards her own family’s miss’s charm, she knew deeply from experience.
Seeing Ye Yuan keeping silent, Yan-er could not resist speaking first. “Can’t say it, right? I knew it. A puny little low-rank Alchemy Master imitating other great masters to read the pulse. Many divine doctors have taken a look at my family’s miss’s sickness and have no inkling at all. I really don’t know where your courage came from! I also don’t know how you duped us with those words earlier!”
Ye Yuan did not bother with her. Instead, he asked Li-er, “Have Miss Li-er cultivated ocular arts before?”
Li-er originally also thought that Ye Yuan was somebody with superficial knowledge. When she heard this, she involuntarily became alert and said with a nod, “That’s right. Li-er has cultivated ocular arts since young.”
Ye Yuan nodded and continued probing. “If my conjectures are correct, Miss Li-er must have advanced at a tremendous pace when cultivating ocular arts, right?”
“That’s right. Mister Ye can actually even tell this? Could it be that . . . this strange illness of mine is related to cultivating ocular arts?” Li-er asked in puzzlement.
Ye Yuan was only reading her pulse. Under the situation where Li-er did not take the initiative to release her ocular powers, Ye Yuan would simply be unable to detect it.
In the past, those alchemists who diagnosed her all knew that she trained in ocular arts. But Ye Yuan was unaware.
He actually discovered that she had cultivated ocular arts before just based on reading her pulse! He was clearly extraordinary!
Moreover, hearing the meaning behind Ye Yuan’s words, it seemed like her illness had a strong correlation to cultivating ocular arts!
Ye Yuan did not answer Li-er’s question but continued asking, “Does Miss Li-er feel dispirited every few months and become completely listless whenever you’re doing anything?”
At this time, Li-er had already completely put away any form of underestimation and said solemnly, “That’s right! In the past, this sort of situation would happen every few months. It would last three to five days each time. But recently, the time between this symptom is becoming increasingly shorter, but the time it persists is getting progressively longer. My father had invited innumerable famed doctors because of this, but nobody could diagnose this illness! I didn’t think that Mister Ye actually has such capabilities at this young age!”
By the side, where was there still any hint of despise from Yan-er? She had long perked her ears up to listen intently.
She was right beside when those so-called famous doctors diagnosed Miss. But nobody could explain why.
But this boy only diagnosed slightly and could actually perceive so many things!
Compared to this Ye Yuan, those so-called famous doctors were truly beneath even trash!
This period of time, watching Miss being tormented by her ailment, Yan-er also felt like she was experiencing it herself.
But her concern was just concern. She was at a complete loss on what to do!
Even Old Master was helpless, what could she do?
Hearing Li-er’s praise, there was no pleased expression on Ye Yuan’s face. He shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying, “Miss Li-er is really a person riddled with paradoxes!”
Li-er was dumbstruck. She asked, “What does Mister Ye mean?”
Ye Yuan cupped his fists and said, “Forgive Ye Yuan for being brusque. I’ve observed that Miss Li has ice skin and jade bones, a sign of extreme nobility. Yet, your looks don’t match. I discern that Miss Li-er has Moonlight Heavenly Eye Physique, advancing at a tremendous pace when cultivating ocular arts. Yet, it just had to be the Innate Battle Soul Physique too.”
Li-er and Yan-er had blank looks on their faces. They clearly know nothing about this Innate Battle Soul Physique.
“Mister Ye, what kind of spirit physique is this Innate Battle Soul Physique? Li-er has never heard of it before. Mister Ye, please enlighten us,” Li-er opened her mouth to ask.
Ye Yuan nodded and said, “In this age, when martial artists cultivate, they first accumulate essence, then cultivate the soul, and then gain enlightenment on Dao. This is associated with the Upper Three Realms, Middle Three Realms, and Lower Three Realms. This kind of cultivation system is already very complete. The vast majority of martial artists in the world would take this path.”
Ye Yuan rattled on. Li-er and Yan-er were all secretly astounded.
They did not think that within a tiny little Southern Domain sect, there was actually somebody who could enumerate the Upper, Middle, and Lower three realm cultivation system like his family’s own inheritance.
“But then, it was said that 100 thousand years ago, there was once a peerless powerhouse who possessed the Innate Battle Soul Physique. He walked the cultivation path of merging spirit and body and finally stepped into the Deity Realm! It was said that people who possessed this type of spirit physique, their bodies, and divine soul would gradually amalgamate, attaining the unparalleled Great Dao from there!” Ye Yuan continued.
Li-er was unbelievably baffled when she heard this. She had never heard of such a horrifying spirit physique before. And she herself was actually the owner of this kind of spirit physique!
“Your meaning is . . .” Li-er was nimble-minded. She had evidently already guessed what Ye Yuan was going to say.
Ye Yuan nodded and said, “That’s right. The Moonlight Heavenly Eye Physique is likewise a Deity Realm Physique. Furthermore, the cultivation of the Moonlight Heavenly Eye Physique similarly requires the support of soul force! That’s also to say, this two types of spirit physiques are tearing your divine soul at the same time! All the way until one day, they will split your divine soul into two! Al
so, your current symptoms are not very obvious yet. You just feel dizzy and lethargic. Subsequently, the pain of your divine soul will become progressively stronger. That kind of ripping sensation will make you wish that you were dead!”
When Ye Yuan was breaking through to the Spirit Condensation Realm, he personally had a taste of that sort of divine soul tearing agony. That kind of feeling of dying being better than living was still fresh in his mind right now.
If a person suffered such torment every day, even a man of iron would collapse too, let alone a little girl.
And Ye Yuan knew that even if one were a Divine King Realm powerhouse, under such torment, there would only be death in the end!
Any one of these two types of spirit physiques would be incredibly terrifying. But gathering onto a person at the same time was lethal.
When Yan-er listened to Ye Yuan’s words, her tears immediately flowed. “Nonsense! You’re definitely talking rubbish! This Innate Battle Soul Physique is simply unheard of. How do you know?”
Ye Yuan let out a sigh and said, “I also didn’t imagine that I could chance upon such a spirit physique. But through Miss Li-er’s pulse earlier, I could indistinctly sense the strength of the ripping and the absorption her body has on the divine soul. Such a state is exactly the same as the Innate Battle Soul Physique!”
Ye Yuan was extremely sensitive towards soul force. Although the absorbing force in Li-er’s body was very minute, he could still detect it.

Yan-er suddenly wiped her tears and said, “I know! You’re definitely hankering after my family’s miss’s beauty, that’s why you’re deliberately saying so! Yes? No? I’m telling you, give up on this idea! My family’s miss already likes someone else!”
When Yan-er’s words came out, Li-er’s expression dimmed instead. Her eyes revealed a woeful look.
Ye Yuan was stupefied. He looked at Li-er’s face but did not say anything.
Towards this face, Ye Yuan was not disgusted by it, but it was not to an extent where he was coveting her beauty, right?
What did that have to do with this?!
This Miss Yan-er was really packed with confidence in her family’s miss!
Forget about Li-er, even Yan-er herself had no relation to the word ‘beauty,’ right?
“Yan-er, stop talking nonsense. This appearance of mine, it’s already extremely hard to come by that Mister Ye is not repulsed by me. What beauty is there?” Li-er glared at Yan-er and said crossly.
“But Miss, you didn’t see that lecherous look of his just now!” Yan-er refused to give in.
Ye Yuan shook his head and said helplessly, “Since Miss Yan-er suspects my motives, then just take it as if I didn’t say it. My seniors are still waiting for me. Farewell, ladies!”
Ye Yuan not arguing did not mean that he really had no temper.
This Yan-er is really too self-absorbed. Even if I have never met women before, it’s not to the extent where I will immediately be moved when I see a face like this, right?
If he continued talking, wouldn’t he saving people out of goodwill become ulterior motives?
“Wait a minute, Mister Ye! Keep your mouth shut for me, Yan-er!” Just as Ye Yuan turned around to leave, Li-er hurriedly stopped him.
“Miss Li-er, this Ye was just shooting my mouth. Just take it as if you didn’t hear it,” Ye Yuan said.
Li-er shook her head and said, “Yan-er is insensible. Although mister’s realm is not high, the level of your medicinal skills is seldom seen in Li-er’s lifetime! Li-er boldly asks Mister, does this spirit physique problem of mine has a solution?”
Ye Yuan mused for a moment and said, “You really want to hear?”
Li-er nodded and said, “This matter concerns life and death. I naturally want to listen.”
“But we’re barely acquaintances. Can you really trust me?”
“Mister Ye is chivalrous. Li-er already cannot thank you enough in my heart, how can I not trust mister? If others see this face of mine, they would surely keep a respectful distance away. But Mister Ye risked death to come back alone and save me. It can be seen that Mister is righteous; somebody who can be trusted!” Li-er said.
If it were some other youth, they would surely get carried away with pride upon hearing such praise. But Ye Yuan was very composed.
When he did things, he only sought to be able to live with himself. As for whether Li-er, the master and servant pair were grateful, he did not really mind.
Except, forget that Yan-er was ungrateful, she even made baseless conjectures about him. This inevitably infuriated him.
But Li-er’s words had a kind of spring breeze and rain magic. It felt very pleasing to Ye Yuan’s ears when listening. That bit of displeasure from earlier also dissipated like a cloud.
This made Ye Yuan sigh with admiration once again. It seemed like apart from her face was a little ugly, this Miss Li-er could be said to be perfect in other areas!
Ye Yuan sighed and said, “Alright then. Since Miss Li-er trusts me, I’ll talk about it.”
Li-er gave a beautiful bow and said with a gentle smile, “Li-er thanks Mister Ye.”
Ye Yuan waved his hands and said, “Don’t be in such a rush to give thanks. Honestly speaking, a rarely seen dual spirit physique like yours is really very troublesome! The importance of the divine soul to a person need not be explained. If your divine soul is completely torn into two parts, what awaits can only be death!”
Talking about life and death, Li-er was not really visibly moved. She asked calmly, “Then in mister’s opinion, how long more can Li-er still live?”
Ye Yuan assessed for a moment and said, “This would have to depend on the awakening speed of your Innate Battle Soul Physique. If it’s fast, then three to five years. If slow, then around ten years or so.”
Li-er was dazed. “Awakening?”
Ye Yuan nodded and said, “That’s right. The time that this symptom of yours appeared should be these past few years, right?”
Li-er nodded and said, “Yes. Roughly around three years’ time.”
“Then that’s right! This Innate Battle Soul Physique is not immediately obtained right after birth, but awakens through post-natal triggers! Once it awakens, this kind of spirit physique will automatically start fusing the divine soul, all the way until the spirit and flesh becomes one! This spirit physique is extremely heaven-defying. During the process of spirit and flesh merging, the cultivation speed of the person possessing the spirit physique will become increasingly faster and will not have any bottlenecks all the way until prior to breaking through to the Deity Realm!” Ye Yuan explained.
Li-er sucked in a deep breath and said, “That’s also to say, even if I stop cultivating right now, this Innate Battle Soul Physique will still rip my divine soul?”
Ye Yuan nodded and said, “If you’re not of the Moonlight Heavenly Eye Physique but of some other spirit physiques, this sort of spirit and flesh union will not have a big impact on you. But the cultivation of the Moonlight Heavenly Eye Physique requires the aid of soul force at the same time. You’ve already been through so many years of cultivation. Your soul force is already fully acclimatized to the Moonlight Heavenly Eye Physique. Hence . . .”
Li-er gave a bitter smile when she heard this and said, “To think that such a thing would actually happen to me. Then Mister Ye . . . can I still be saved?”
Ye Yuan smiled bitterly and said, “I have a method which might be able to resolve Miss Li-er’s danger. But honestly, there’s not much difference between saying it or not, because I can’t help you now.”
Li-er’s eyes dimmed, but she still said, “Mister Ye, please enlighten!”
Ye Yuan nodded and said, “I know a type of divine soul mystic art when supplemented by a type of Tier 8 medicinal pill, can split the divine soul into two for individual cultivation! As long as Miss Li-ern can divide the divine soul into two and integrate a part of the divine
soul into both eyes, the crisis of the spirit and flesh will naturally be easily resolved.”
Yan-er’s eyes lit up when she heard this. “Since that’s the case, can’t you just teach us the divine soul mystic art and pill formula?”
Li-er’s eyes glared and finally said subtle anger, “Yan-er!”
No matter whether it was the divine soul mystic art or the Tier 8 medicinal pill’s formula, they were exceedingly precious items. Yan-er asking for it like this was clearly committing a taboo.
This sort of matter, even people on close terms would find it hard to ask, let alone that they were strangers.
Yan-er’s tears splashed on the ground, and she actually kneeled in front of Ye Yuan with a loud smack, crying, “Mister Ye, Yan-er apologizes to you! Yan-er knows that this sort of request is very abrupt, but Miss is also someone with a bitter life! Yan-er really doesn’t wish to see her pass away like this! I beg you, show some pity and save her!”
Seeing Yan-er like so, Li-er’s tears also involuntarily fell.
Ye Yuan sighed and supported Yan-er up, saying, “Miss Yan-er need not do this. Towards saving people, I, Ye Yuan, would never decline. There’s no harm in passing you the divine soul mystic art and Tier 8 pill formula. It’s just that I’m afraid that even if I hand them to you, you girls won’t be able to refine the medicinal pill either. And without the medicinal pill, cultivating this sort of divine soul mystic art is overly dangerous.”
“How so? As long as we have the pill formula, can’t we refine the medicinal pill?” Yan-er thought that Ye Yuan was finding an excuse and was unwilling to surrender the divine soul mystic art and pill formula.
Ye Yuan hesitated for a while, but finally still said, “Alright then. Since Miss Yan-er doesn’t believe me, then I’ll hand the divine soul mystic art and pill formula to you guys. But Miss Li-er, you must keep in mind, you absolutely cannot cultivate the divine soul mystic art if you can’t refine the pill!”
