But Ye Yuan would not discriminate against her because of this. Looks were determined by parents and the heaven. How could one make the decision?
Furthermore, although this girl was hideous, she was highly cultured and sensible, gentle and generous. Her movements had the grace of an influential family. Presumably, her background should not be poor.
"What are you looking at, punk? Don't think that you can have any improper thoughts because you saved us! My family's miss is out of your reach!"
When Yan-er saw Ye Yuan's eyes, she immediately became full of fighting spirit like a mother hen protecting her chicks as if her family's miss was some matchless beauty.
Ye Yuan inadvertently found it funny when he saw the situation and said, "Miss Yan-er is overanalyzing things. From what I see, your family's miss's body seems to be unwell, that's why I took a few more looks at her."
A trace of astonishment involuntarily flashed across Yan-er and that ugly girl's faces. But Yan-er said cunningly, "My family's miss's complexion looks bad. Even a moron can tell that her body is unwell, right?"
Ye Yuan shook his head and said, "Your family's miss's illness is probably not something as simple as her complexion being pale and wan. This one is knowledgeable in medical knowledge, may I take a look at miss? Maybe I can be of help."
Yan-er gave a doubtful look and thought to herself could it be that this fellow perceived something?
"You, a puny little Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist. At the very best, you're just an Alchemy Master too. What can you see?" Yan-er said vigilantly.
But the ugly girl said, "Since Mister can see that my body is unwell, I believe that you learned from a renowned master. There's no harm in taking a look. However, I've seen before many famed masters for this illness of mine, but they were all helpless about it."
Though she said so, the ugly girl reached her dainty hand out and placed it in front of Ye Yuan.
Yan-er was alarmed when she saw it and said, "Miss . . ."
The ugly girl waved her hands and said, "There's no harm. Mister just has good intentions. I guess that Mister came from a prominent master and when he saw this sickly body of mine, he began itching to try his skill."
Ye Yuan could not help being stupefied when he heard this. He chortled and said, "Miss is very astute; this Ye Yuan is very impressed! With my visual prowess, I should be able to see through miss's sickness with one glance. But I got nothing after looking for a long time. This one is indeed itching to test my skills."
Ye Yuan thought to himself that although this lady's looks were appalling, she was very clever and sensible as if she could see through people's thoughts with one look.
Alchemists were all medical practitioners. Helping people diagnose illness was usual practice.
Ye Yuan's abilities went without saying. For common illnesses, he only had to examine slightly before being able to determine it.
But earlier, he stared at this ugly girl for a long time and got nothing. This really made him itch to have a go.
But when Yan-er heard this, she said disdainfully, "You're just a low-rank Alchemy Master, what are you pretending to be capable for? Even if an Alchemy Grandmaster or an Alchemy King came, they might not necessarily be as arrogant as you, right?"
Ye Yuan shot Yan-er a brief glance and opened his mouth to say, "Miss Yan-er's blood vitality has a slight deficit and your complexion a little pale. I think that you had just suffered very severe internal injuries several months back. Now, although your injuries have already healed, the lost blood essence has most likely yet to recover fully. The Crow Orchid Ganoderma that the High Clarity Sect was asking for was probably Miss giving Miss Yan-er to use to replenish her blood essence, right?"
This time, Yan-er was truly shocked. What Ye Yuan said was actually not the tiniest bit off!
If Yan-er's injuries were not recovered yet, there was naturally nothing impressive about Ye Yuan perceiving it.
But her injuries were already practically healed. The average person would absolutely be unable to see from the surface that she had suffered tremendous internal injuries a few months ago!
The injury at that time was naturally to protect the young lady. She nearly died because of it.
But several months had already passed since then. Her wounds were already pretty much healed, and her deficient blood essence was already largely recovered. This Crow Orchid Ganoderma was only used to consolidate her foundation and to replenish her spirit to prevent affecting future cultivation.
Looking on the outside, she was no different from an ordinary person.
But even so, Ye Yuan still saw through it at a single glance!
A puny little low-rank Alchemy Master actually had such visual prowess!
The ugly girl was also surprised as she said, "Mister actually have such visual prowess. What you said was completely on point! Looks like Yan-er and I judged people by their appearance and looked down on Mister. Li-er apologizes to Mister."
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.
Chapter 293 - Two Types of Spirit Physique!
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. "I
f 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 acc.u.mulate 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! Also, 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 s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e towards soul force. Although the absorbing force in Li-er's body was very minute, he could still detect it.
Chapter 294 - Divine Soul Mystic Art and Tier 8 Pill Formula!
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 turne
d 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 disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e 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!"
