Chapitre 46: Chapter 46: Grand Gesture!
After the transaction for a large batch of first-grade medicinal materials earlier, they had already discreetly investigated Wei Yang's background.
With the Xiao family's influence as a local powerhouse, investigating the information of a local in Wu Tang City was naturally quite simple.
Moreover, Wei Yang had already been a somewhat famous physician for several years.
Using that as a clue, it was easy to uncover a plethora of information about Wei Yang, including his birth date, parents, and other details; they had all been thoroughly obtained.
"My parents, unfortunately, both passed away in the Magic Beast Mountain Range when I was young. I was merely six years old at the time."
Wei Yang's eyes seemed to blur slightly. "Back then, I felt very lost and confused about this world. I had just begun the path of cultivation, training in Dou Qi, with no one to guide me..."
He then looked at Xiao Yan, his gaze clearing up, and laughed, "In the following two years, your reputation started to spread gradually in Wu Tang City. It might be laughable to you, Brother Xiao Yan, but I actually took you as a goal to chase, constantly inquiring about your news, making you a motivation for myself to keep striving forward."
"It's precisely because of this that I've achieved what little I have today."
Everyone fell silent.
Unexpectedly, Physician Wei was actually... a little fan of Xiao Yan?
Of course, they couldn't know the term little fan, but the meaning was about the same.
Wei Yang's words were half true.
When he first entered this world years ago, he indeed took Xiao Yan as a target for his own struggle and effort; that was true.
Cultivating Dou Qi earnestly was so he wouldn't fall too far behind Xiao Yan.
Finally, at the age of twelve, he became a Dou Practitioner.
It was a comparison, a motivation...
...
In the corner, Gu Xun'er rolled her eyes secretly upon hearing Wei Yang's words.
You call that a little achievement?
Modest much.
Forget Wu Tang City, within the entire Jia Ma Empire, your talent and accomplishments are enough to make a name for yourself in the empire.
Even in the Central Plains, you'd be considered quite remarkable.
Because of the love extended from Xiao Yan, upon hearing that Wei Yang held Xiao Yan in such high regard, Gu Xun'er felt much more favorable towards him now.
The faint indifference hidden deep in her eyes also slightly melted away.
At the same time, she admired the young man a little.
Losing his parents at six, surviving alone, reaching where he is today, he must have gone through much hardship.
...
"I..." Xiao Yan opened his mouth, and in the face of Wei Yang's words and kind gaze, he couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.
Too sudden!
Awkward!
Xiao Yan's face flushed somewhat.
I, Xiao Yan, had plenty of fans back in the day; this isn't surprising.
But if it were two or three years ago, Xiao Yan could have accepted such praise with satisfaction.
Now, however, he felt extremely awkward.
He really didn't have the face to respond to or face this!
Having seen great things...
At the same time, a surge of emotion and warmth rose in his heart.
Unexpectedly, unexpectedly!
I, Xiao Yan, have hit such a low point today, and yet there is still a fan who supports and remembers me...
Touched!
Over these two years, for Xiao Yan, who has truly experienced human warmth and coldness, Wei Yang's words undoubtedly moved and warmed him.
Looking back at those who once praised and complimented him?
Only Physician Wei is my true loyal fan!
Able to withstand the test of time.
Xiao Yan's mind was a chaotic mess, imagining a lot in an instant.
A child who lost his parents at six, akin to a little beast huddled in a corner during a cold, rainy night, trembling pitifully.
And then, to survive, the child had to cultivate diligently, strengthening himself so he wouldn't be bullied.
Day after day, he trained hard, not fearing difficulties and hardships, his little face always filled with determination and seriousness.
Uh, my true fan, there might also be Xun'er.
At this moment.
A small, tender hand quietly reached through the sleeve to gently grasp Xiao Yan's tightly clasped hands.
Xiao Yan glanced sideways, and Gu Xun'er playfully winked at him.
A sense of warmth resurfaced in Xiao Yan's heart, his gaze softened, and the frown and bitterness on his brows seemed to dissipate a lot at this moment.
Gu Xun'er felt quite happy seeing this. It had been a long time since she had seen Brother Xiao Yan in a better mood, leading her to feel somewhat grateful to Wei Yang.
She didn't dare tell Xiao Yan about Wei Yang's true strength and realm.
Fearing Xiao Yan, who barely had his spirits lifted, would be deeply impacted.
Question: How does it feel to be far surpassed by your own fan one day?
Probably hits harder than a critical blow.
...
Xiao Yan's gaze at Wei Yang became much more kind and earnest.
No longer had he that absent-minded, aloof demeanor.
But upon noticing the many ridiculing and mocking gazes from the clan members, he self-deprecatingly smiled and lowered his head.
Watching his nose, watching his mouth, saying nothing...
Wei Yang then withdrew his gaze.
"Ahem~" The First Elder's cough broke the silence inside the hall.
Now wasn't the time to be daydreaming.
Xiao Zhan returned to his senses, casting a somewhat affectionate glance at Xiao Yan before turning to Wei Yang, his expression slightly awkward.
He smiled at Wei Yang, a trace of bitterness and regret flashed across his face, and he sighed, "Nowadays, my son's situation... I'm afraid it might disappoint you, Physician Wei."
The three elders remained silent, a hint of mockery flitting across their faces.
However, Wei Yang waved it off indifferently, saying to Xiao Zhan with a gentle voice, "I have heard about Brother Xiao Yan's matter as well, and it is indeed a pity and a regret... But perhaps there might still be a chance for recovery, Clan Leader Xiao should not be overly worried."
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan's eyes brightened slightly, but soon after, he nodded with a bitter smile, "Thanks for your kind words, Physician Wei. Let's hope so."
Over the past two years, he has tried countless times, invited numerous physicians, and even alchemists to examine Xiao Yan, yet to no avail.
The failures and disappointments have piled up so much that he barely dares to hope but his heart is reluctant to give up.
...
At this moment, a clan member brought in with several servants, carrying a large round table.
The Xiao family members all turned their gazes towards Wei Yang.
Wei Yang got up, walked to the table, and with a wave of his hand.
Clatter~
A large pile of jade bottles stacked neatly on the table, filling the entire surface. At a rough glance, there were more than a hundred fifty.
"This!" Xiao Zhan abruptly stood up, his face filled with shock.
Wow~
The three elders and numerous Xiao family members also sprang to their feet, their eyes fixated on the jade bottles.
A faint medicinal fragrance subtly wafted through the air, filling the entire hall.
"What is this?" Xiao Zhan looked at Wei Yang, disbelief and excitement in his expression.
"These jade bottles contain first-grade pills, a total of one hundred and sixty-three."
Wei Yang explained with a smile, "I would like to entrust your Xiao family to help sell them for me, what do you think?"
*Gasp*
A chorus of sharp inhalations erupted.
The faces of the Xiao family instantly flushed, even the whites of their eyes began turning red.
First-grade pills!
A hundred and sixty-three of them!?
Such a grand gesture!
Am I dreaming?
These are alchemical pills!
Having this many first-grade pills openly displayed right before their eyes, how could they not be excited?
"These pills have various effects; some stop bleeding, some heal wounds, others restore Qi, assist in cultivation, and some are for detoxification, among others..."
Wei Yang sat back down, took a sip of tea, and casually remarked, "I haven't labeled them one by one; it's too much trouble. I trust you can tell them apart."
