Chapter 15: The Girl Seeking Treatment
“Doctor, lately I’ve been feeling soreness in my lower back and knees, weakness in my limbs, and dizziness with blurred vision.”
“What do you think is wrong with me?”
Huo Yuhao examined the man’s complexion, took his hand to check the palm and nail color, and confirmed his symptoms.
“Kidney deficiency.”
“Do less of that activity, brew tea daily with cinnamon, golden sun flower, and snake fruit, drink three liters a day, and it can be regulated within a month.”
“With economic support, go buy Whale Jelly to eat; a small piece of Hundred Years Whale Jelly can ensure you never have kidney deficiency again.”
The man gave an embarrassed smile and said, “Just give me some medicinal herbs to brew tea with. Don’t even mention Hundred Years Whale Jelly; I can’t afford Ten Years Whale Jelly either!”
During this time, ever since he cured the hunter’s wound, everyone in Xuan Feng City South District knew there was a highly skilled doctor here who could instantly heal wounds from highly poisonous soul beasts like the Rotten Flesh Spider, with no aftereffects.
Plus, the prices weren’t too expensive and they provided Martial Soul consultation services, so many people flooded into Huo Yuhao’s medical clinic for treatment.
Among them were even quite a few soul masters. Next to South District was a Great Fighting Arena, where soul masters inevitably got injured during Soul Fighting.
When they saw there was a medical clinic right next door that could instantly heal injuries with no aftereffects, they immediately got excited.
Those soul masters would endure being beaten half to death on stage, insisting on being sent to Huo Yuhao’s medical clinic.
Although the Fighting Arena provided free medical services, the standard was average, and treatment for serious injuries could easily leave hidden dangers.
For soul masters, they would rather endure more pain for a while than leave hidden dangers in their bodies.
To avoid affecting their own potential.
Huo Yuhao was also happy to treat these injured soul masters.
These soul masters themselves had spiritual power and soul power far exceeding ordinary people, so when performing Reverse Cursed Technique treatment on them, he basically didn’t need to use his own spiritual power.
Moreover, the genetic information these soul masters provided was far more abundant than that of ordinary people, and the progress on “special information” was rising rapidly, soon to unlock new information.
At the same time, during this period of research on the Reverse Cursed Technique, Huo Yuhao discovered that soul power itself could also be reversed.
However, the reversed soul power was extremely disordered and could only be forcibly stabilized with a large amount of spiritual power.
When reversed soul power touched plants, the plants rapidly decayed and corrupted until turning into flying ash.
Seeing this, Huo Yuhao proceeded to experiment on animals and inorganic matter.
Ordinary animals showed obvious degeneration in reversed soul power, then decayed and corrupted into dust; inorganic matter lasted longer in reversed soul power, but eventually shattered as well.
Decay, deathly stillness, and degeneration were the characteristics of reversed soul power. After much contemplation and meditation, Huo Yuhao decided to name it “Entropy Power”.
The disordered opposite of all ordered energy is Entropy Power.
Huo Yuhao also tried to combine soul power and Entropy Power, but just as he was about to proceed, a strong palpitation made him stop.
It was as if some voice was telling him not to do it now.
After thinking for a moment, Huo Yuhao stopped the combination experiment, planning to try it again after becoming stronger in the future.
He then turned to research how to reasonably utilize Entropy Power as a combat method.
……
Xuan Feng City West District.
In Xuan Feng City, South District was where soul masters gathered, with many Fighting Arenas and markets; East District was concentrated with taverns and brothels, full of decadence every night with extravagant winds blowing; North District was where power was concentrated, with the City Lord’s Mansion located there.
West District was where commoners lived; the roads here were narrow, houses scattered, sewage flowing everywhere, like heaven and hell compared to other places.
In a small house in West District, a woman lay on the bed, her face pale, lips without a trace of blood, her golden long hair dry and lusterless.
Judging from the house’s interior furnishings, this family’s poverty was no less than that of Huo Yuhao’s family in the White Tiger Duke’s Mansion.
The woman was now so weak she couldn’t even groan, her whole body covered in cold sweat, her life aura weak like a candle in the wind.
Not long after, the wooden door of the house creaked open, sunlight streaming in from the doorway, filling the room with light.
Then a panicked female voice suddenly rang out: “Mother!!!”
A stunningly beautiful girl with golden wavy long hair dropped the bag of bread she was holding and rushed to the bedside, tightly grasping the woman’s hand.
“Mother, how are you?”
The girl was so anxious tears were about to fall; when she went out, her mother had been fine, how had she suddenly become like this.
The woman slightly opened her eyelids, laboriously lifted her arm, and stroked the girl’s head weakly:
“Nannan, it’s nothing, just the old ailment.”
“It’ll be fine in a bit.”
Jiang Nannan didn’t believe such words; they had depended on each other for over ten years, and she was very familiar with her mother’s illness.
Her mother had a congenital heart problem that would ache from time to time, but it had never been as serious as today.
Jiang Nannan realized her mother’s condition had worsened again; she bit her lip, eyes teary as she looked at her mother and said:
“Mother, wait a moment, I’ll find someone to treat you.”
“I’ve saved up some money from part-time work at Shrek Academy; it will definitely be enough to cure your illness.”
With that, Jiang Nannan helped her mother get up from the bed and carried her toward North District.
Although she was an Agility Attack Type Soul Elder, worried her mother couldn’t withstand high-speed movement, she could only proceed carefully.
After arriving at a medical clinic in North District, with the help of a medical clinic apprentice, she gently placed her mother on a bed.
This could be said to be the best medical clinic in Xuan Feng City, having continued for centuries; the Clinic Master’s inherited Martial Soul was Nine Azure Vines.
It was a powerful Healing System Martial Soul, and the Clinic Master’s strength had reached Soul Saint.
After tucking her mother in, Jiang Nannan went straight to the medicine room to find the Clinic Master, hoping to ask him to treat her.
The medical clinic’s Clinic Master was named Xu Wei; he was researching a prescription at the moment and took off his glasses upon seeing someone approach.
“Are you Miss Jiang?”
Jiang Nannan was a bit stunned, her eyes slightly red as she looked at him and said:
“You know me?”
Xu Wei chuckled lightly, stroked his beard, and said, “There are only so many people in Xuan Feng City who can study at Shrek Academy; of course I remember you.”
Jiang Nannan bit her lip lightly, then bowed deeply to Xu Wei and said, “Clinic Master, I want to ask you to save my mother.”
“No matter what the cost, I’m willing to bear it!”
Seeing her like this, Xu Wei thought for a moment, then got up and went to her mother’s bedside to personally treat her.
For him, Jiang Nannan’s potential and future were worth his help, establishing a good karma that might bring unexpected gains in the future.
Upon reaching the bedside, Xu Wei immediately diagnosed it as a heart problem based on his years of medical experience.
But the specifics would need to be tested to know.
He summoned his Martial Soul, two yellow, two purple, and three black soul rings totaling seven appearing at his feet, greenish-blue light covering Jiang Nannan’s mother entirely.
