Supreme of the Heavenly Realm

Mentioning the Nangong family, Ye Xuan actually had a not-so-shallow fate with them. When the Ye family was at the height of its glory, the Nangong family was but a dependent clan, living under the breath of the Ye family. Once the Ye family encountered a great calamity and its power waned, the Nangong family broke away and became one of the three major families of Tianyang County. Meanwhile, their relationship with the Ye family slowly grew cold.

As for that Lady Nangong, her name was Nangong Yao, and Ye Xuan was anything but unfamiliar with her. He could even recall, from when he was very young, a chubby little girl often followed behind him, calling him "Brother Ye Xuan" in a coquettish voice. Back then, they were inseparable and played well together, but after the Nangong family broke away from the Ye family, Nangong Yao also left, and since then, they had never seen each other again.

Originally, after Ye Xiao's death, Ye Xuan's status had plummeted, almost to that of a servant within the Ye family. With the Nangong family's rise, Nangong Yao had become a pampered daughter of wealth, so naturally, there would be no chance for them to meet.

"That chubby girl, she's actually fallen ill?"

For some reason, as he remembered information about Nangong Yao, Ye Xuan's heart surged with involuntary warmth. Everyone was young back then, but as Ye Xuan fell from grace, he often suffered bullying within the Ye family. It was this chubby girl, however, who would often stand up for him. Therefore, Ye Xuan's memory of her was particularly strong.

In this indifferent world, there were not many who could evoke such a feeling in him.

"Workshop Owner, Master Yan."

While Ye Xuan was reminiscing, a richly-dressed elderly man walked in, his face adorned with a bit of fat and a bearing of a dragon in stride, exuding the air of a Martial Artist with considerable Cultivation, likely around the level of a Second Grade martial master.

"Housekeeper Zhao, Lady Nangong's illness is truly beyond my capabilities. I have already mentioned this to the Nangong Family Head last time; you should seek someone more skilled than myself." As soon as he saw Housekeeper Zhao, Master Yan waved his hand, refusing before the other could say much more.

"Master Yan, you are the most proficient in medical skills in Tianyang County. If you say you're powerless, then my miss will truly have no hope," Housekeeper Zhao said anxiously.

"The symptoms of Lady Nangong, I only ever seen them once in my lifetime. It's not that I don't want to cure her, but I truly don't know where to begin. Please leave," Master Yan shook his head again. As a renowned Spirit Medicine Master, would he admit to his medical skills being insufficient? It was just that Nangong Yao had contracted some strange illness, even he couldn't recognize it, let alone cure it.

"Master Yan…"

Housekeeper Zhao grew anxious upon hearing this. However, just as he was about to say something more, Ye Xuan's voice came from his side.

"Housekeeper Zhao, I might have a method to cure Lady Nangong."

These words made Housekeeper Zhao stop in surprise, then he turned his head to look; upon seeing Ye Xuan, he couldn't help but sneer, "Oh, isn't this Young Master Ye Xuan from the Ye family? What could you, a good-for-nothing playboy, possibly know? By the way, what are you doing here?"

"Presumptuous! This young man is a valued guest of our Spiritual Items Workshop. Housekeeper Zhao, you dare to insult him to his face, you're directly slapping the face of my Spiritual Items Workshop!" The owner of the Spiritual Items Workshop couldn't stand by as Housekeeper Zhao mocked Ye Xuan and he immediately scolded him in a cold voice.

"I dare not."

Housekeeper Zhao jumped in fright. Even the Nangong family couldn't afford to offend the Spiritual Items Workshop, let alone a mere housekeeper like him. He wouldn't dare to slap the workshop's face even if he had ten times the courage.

He couldn't have imagined that Ye Xuan would be associated with the Spiritual Items Workshop, much less cause its owner to step in on his behalf.

However, as the owner scolded Housekeeper Zhao, both he and Master Yan were also secretly astonished. They hadn't expected that this young man, who casually dealt with Ancient Medicine Formulas and whose identity was mysterious, turned out to be that infamous incompetent young master?

But on second thought, whether Ye Xuan was incompetent seemed irrelevant to them. Being labeled as incompetent only meant slow in Cultivation, which may not affect his achievements in the field of Spiritual Medicine.

"If Young Master Ye Xuan is indeed willing to provide aid, it would be a blessing for your Lady Nangong. I believe if he says he has a method, then he must be confident. As someone who cannot see the value before him, what do you know?" Master Yan said with displeasure, openly backing Ye Xuan. With just one move, Ye Xuan had produced the rare Ancient Medicine Formula like the Qi Boosting Powder. He believed that Ye Xuan was no ordinary person.

Hearing Master Yan speak like this, Housekeeper Zhao was stunned, still inwardly skeptical. Ye Xuan, just a young nobody who only knew about eating, drinking, and carousing, how could he possibly know about treating illness and saving people? But it didn't seem that Master Yan would have any reason to deceive him. Could this young man really be an expert?

"If you think I'm not up to it, then let's forget it. Workshop Owner, Master Yan, I shall take my leave."

Ye Xuan offered to help considering it was Nangong Yao, thinking of visiting his childhood playmate. To think it would cause such a commotion. In his past life in the Heavenly Realm, people would kneel and beg him without him lifting a finger to help.

"Young Master Ye Xuan, please wait."

Seeing Ye Xuan about to leave, after several changes in expression, Housekeeper Zhao quickly stopped him. If he could not bring anyone back today, Nangong Bo would certainly not let him off easily. Since even Master Yan recommended Ye Xuan, it was worth a try.
