Mesmerizing Ghost Doctor - Chapter 4905: There is a guest
Chapter 4905: There is a guest
Feng Jiu withdrew her hand and asked, “A condition you’ve had since birth?”
“Yes.” He answered, his heart pounding.
“You’ve taken quite a few medicines over the years, haven’t you?” Feng Jiu asked calmly.
“Yes. I’ve sought out many physicians and medicinal pill masters, but all said there was no possibility of recovery. Ghost Doctor, I wonder if my eyes…” Hope blossomed in his heart, yet he feared it might shatter. At this moment, his mood was fraught with anxiety.
Feng Jiu tapped her fingers lightly on the tabletop, her gaze fixed on him as she pondered. After a long moment, she spoke: “In the deep sea dwells a creature called the Crimson-Eyed Spirit Fish. Extract its eye, preserve it in an ice box, and bring it to my immortal island. Remember—it must be an adult. Once you find the eye, I’ll attempt to treat your eyes then.”
Hearing this, Yuan Jing’s heart surged with excitement. “So the Ghost Doctor means there’s a possibility my eyes can be cured?”
“You could say that,” Feng Jiu glanced at him. “Provided you find that fish eye.”
“Yes, yes! I’ll definitely send people to search for it. Thank you, Ghost Doctor! Thank you!” His face flushed with emotion as he stood up and bowed to her.
“That’s all for now.” Feng Jiu rose and walked out, returning to her private room on the second floor to rest. She intended to question Mo Chen later about this Yuan Jing.
After seeing Feng Jiu downstairs, Yuan Jing turned to the old man beside him: “Uncle Yuan, did you hear that? My eyes can still be cured!”
The old man’s eyes glistened as he nodded. “I heard you, Young Master. Rest assured, I will have someone retrieve the eyes of that Crimson-Eyed Demon for you!”
“Home. We must return immediately. Have Father dispatch men to search for that Crimson-Eyed Demon at once.” He clasped his hand, his jade-like face radiating excitement and anticipation.
Seeing his excitement and joy, the old man couldn’t bring himself to tell him that the crimson-eyed demon beast was the most ferocious fish-beast in the deep sea. Especially the mature crimson-eyed fierce beasts were extremely rare, for each one took a thousand years to reach adulthood and hid deep within the ocean. The chances of finding one were truly slim.
But even if slim, it was still a hope, a lifeline. They couldn’t give up!
The next morning, Feng Jiu left the inn early, passed through the city gates, and set off toward Yunxiao Mountain.
The townspeople had only given a general direction, for no one truly knew the precise location of Yunxiao Mountain. The exact spot remained unknown, so she had no choice but to search for it herself.
It took her the entire morning to finally locate the mountain.
The entire mountain, indeed the entire area, was concealed by protective barriers and intricate formations. For ordinary cultivators, discovering this place would be exceedingly difficult.
Just as she was searching for the entrance to Mount Yunxiao, the Azure Emperor, seated cross-legged beneath a tree in meditation with Hao’er and Muchen, felt a flicker in his brow and opened his eyes.
“Guests have arrived at the foot of the mountain,” he spoke in a measured tone, gazing toward the mist ahead.
Hearing the voice, Hao’er and Muchen opened their eyes, exchanging a look of surprise. Having been by their Master’s side for so long, they rarely saw visitors come to Yunxiao Mountain.
“Are they friends of the Master? Should we go to greet them?” Hao’er asked, looking at his master.
The Azure Emperor gave them an inexplicable look and said, “Both of you go together!” With that, he handed them a token.
