Chapter 206 - Physician Gan
Li Moyun glanced at the handsome and positive young man, but there was no surprise in his eyes, as if he had long since known the existence of such a person.
Bai Rouyun had no intention of hiding her power in front of Li Moyun, so she gestured for Dongfang Yu to come to her side and quickly introduced them to one another.
"Husband, this is my new friend, Dongfang Yu. He has decided to follow me in the future." Bai Rouyun held a smile on her face, and she noticed the happiness that flashed by in Li Moyun's eyes as she mentioned the word husband.
Dongfang Yu, who had long since heard about Li Moyun, looked at the man with reverence. While he was no woman, he still found this man extremely das.h.i.+ng. He might be a hero for the mortal people, but he was a legend in the cultivation world.
"Greetings to the Eternal Shadow Lord." Dongfang Yu bowed deeply in front of this legendary figure. He was extremely polite and respectful, and there was no jealousy or envy in his eyes.
Seeing his actions, Li Moyun felt much more relieved by leaving this little boy by Bai Rouyun's side.
It did not take long before Li Moyun summoned the leading physician within Canglan City. While it was true that Bai Rouyun had used pills to detoxify the Thousand Ant Poison, she was no doctor. She was not familiar enough with the body's anatomy to ensure whether or not Dongfang Yu was healthy now.
The physician was not a member of the Eternal Shadow Palace, but he had never joined any other faction either. As a neutral figure, he knew what he could say, and what he should keep to himself, and thus, Li Moyun had no worries about using him.
The physician was famous within Canglan City, and had seen many scenes throughout his many years of practice, but when he entered the mansion, his eyes were round as saucers, and his heart was beating rapidly.
Inside the main hall were two figures standing side by side. One was like a deity, immortal, graceful, and so handsome that no other man could compare.
The other one, was a young woman sitting by his side. She seemed innocent, pure, and refined. She resembled a fairy who had descended from the heavens to the mundane world with the purpose of cleansing all evil.
The two of them, one wearing a dark purple robe, and the other a white dress, were simply so stunning that he lost his focus, and could hardly think.
He had heard many rumors about the Eternal Shadow Lord and his useless wife, but as they stood there, bathed in the light from the windows, they resembled a pair of immortal lovers, a perfect couple.
"It is our honor that Physician Gan would take time out of his busy schedule to come to our humble abode."
The one who spoke was Bai Rouyun. She smiled gently as she took her hand back from Li Moyun's palm and walked slowly towards the physician.
Her graceful steps were full of power, and her demeanor did not seem like a useless young woman at all, which confused Physician Gan. Was this the rightful wife, or had the Eternal Shadow Lord found a concubine?
Lowering his eyes, Physician Gan knew that it was not his position to question the position of this woman, so he waited for them to continue with their purpose. They would not have called him here if they had no use for him.
"Physician Gan, this is my friend, Dongfang Yu. He previously had some problems with his body, and we would like a skilled physician to have a look if he has gotten better."
Physician Gan was somewhat surprised. Most cultivators would not get sick, as they had merged energy into their bodies, and any wounds they received would be treated by pills. In the cultivation world, physicians such as himself were simply useless, but now they wanted him to look at the body of a cultivator to see his state?
Understanding that this was a somewhat confusing task, he still nodded his head and agreed to the task.
"Bring Dongfang Yu to the hall." Bai Rouyun called out to Mo Chu, who was standing by the door. He quickly clasped his hands before he turned around to pick up the young man.
Physician Gan dared not look around within the hall. He knew that while the common citizens within Canglan City respected him, he was nothing when compared to the Eternal Shadow Lord.
It did not take long before steps resounded within the hall, and everyone turned towards the sound, only to see Mo Chu and Dongfang Yu walking towards them with unhurried steps.
Both of them were clearly experts within the cultivation world. Their aura, att.i.tude, and appearance were all above average, and Physician Gan could not help but wonder if these experts were too weird, asking for him to check the body of a cultivator.
Even so, he was very professional as he asked Dongfang Yu to take a seat in front of him, on the previously prepared chairs.
"Put your arm on the cus.h.i.+on," he instructed Dongfang Yu, who obediently placed his arm on the oblong rice cus.h.i.+on that had been placed on the table, with the palm of his hand facing upwards.
Physician Gan placed three fingers on his wrist in three different positions. He started pressing lightly on the wrist, then slowly increased the pressure to understand the body's current condition.
His brows were furrowed. Although he had some doubts about this task, as soon as he had accepted it, he wished to do his utmost to ensure that the patient's health was good.
