Chapter 98: Chapter 77: Divine Blood Variant

Translator: 549690339

When it came to dealing with the Blood Jade Centipede, the first person that Lu Yuan thought of was Dr. Li.

Dr. Li was known for his exquisite medical skills and was hailed as a divine doctor. As a local, he was familiar with the native customs and should have some knowledge of various insects.

Besides, he had a Jianghu background and had seen a lot in life; he might have even heard of the Blood Jade Centipede before.

With such an experienced doctor around, dealing with the centipede should not be a problem.

“It’s easy to ask for his help, but getting him to keep a secret would be difficult.”

Lu Yuan didn’t believe that Old Doctor Li, who appeared to be kind and approachable on the surface, was genuinely a nice person.

Not everyone was like Zhou Ze.

For Old Doctor Li to have retired from Jianghu and lived a stable life this far into his sixties, who would believe he came without any cunning?

And in the face of such an old fox, normal tactics were simply not enough. He didn’t have the strength to make him comply.

Yes, he didn’t have the strength.

If Lu Yuan were a top martial artist in Jianghu, or if Sun Siwen held the office of Prefect, then they would have the strength to make Old Doctor Li do their bidding without any second thoughts.

However, Lu Yuan was a third-rate martial artist and Sun Siwen, though an official, was a low-ranked ninth-grade education official.

How can their identities and strength intimidate a veteran of Jianghu?

“The Blood Jade Centipede is just too valuable. Such an item that can increase Inner Strength would be worth thousands of taels of gold in Jianghu. People would be willing to buy it at any cost.

Although Dr. Li is suitable, he is an outsider, and it’s hard to trust that he can be depended on. It’s hard to say if he might just risk it all.

After all, just one deal could guarantee wealth and security for his descendants for generations, and maybe even secure a promising future.”

As Lu Yuan thought over and over in his mind, he finally decided to veto Dr. Li’s option. But without him, who else would be the next best person to find and trust?

After pondering for a while, still being clueless, he sighed in resignation, “If only Doctor Zhou were here. He would definitely be able to help me with this

Blood Jade Centipede. But wait, Doctor Zhou… ”

It suddenly occurred to Lu Yuan that he seemed to have forgotten someone.

Although Zhou Ze was gone, the heir to the Zhou Family’s medical techniques – Zhou Ze’s son – was still around.

“Xiaoqing has been learning medical techniques from Doctor Zhou since childhood. Although he is not yet qualified, I remember he had already started diagnosing and treating patients at the clinic before Doctor Zhou’s death.

In that case, Xiaoqing’s medical skills should be decent, at least not inferior to a regular doctor.

And taking into account the heritage of the Zhou Family’s medical techniques, his knowledge might be even more extensive.

If I seek his help, there might be a way.”

As Lu Yuan’s thoughts cleared up, his eyes sparkled even brighter.

The problem that had been troubling him finally had a good solution, and he immediately felt excited.

Without any hesitation, he picked up the Jade Box in his hands and turned to leave the room.

Once again arriving at Zhou Qing’s room, Old Doctor Li had already finished changing the medicine and left.

Zhou Qing was sitting on the bed, deep in thought about something.

“Xiaoqing.” Lu Yuan stepped into the room.

“Master.” Zhou Qing saw his master had come and smiled happily, “Are you here to check on me? I’ve been applying the medicine properly.”

“Hmm, good.”

Lu Yuan checked the medical treatment on Zhou Qing’s body and nodded with satisfaction. Then he put away his smile for a moment, looking at his apprentice, “I’ve come to see you because I have a request for your help.”

Hearing that he could assist his master, Zhou Qing instantly became spirited and solemnly nodded, “Master, if I can help, I will do everything I can.”

Lu Yuan waved his hand, “Don’t be so nervous. I just want you to have a look at something and figure out how to handle it properly.”

As he spoke, he brought out the Jade Box with the Blood Jade Centipede and opened it.

Immediately, an odd fragrance wafted out.

Upon smelling the scent, Zhou Qing felt as though his entire body had lightened, and the heaviness in his chest seemed to clear up significantly.

Lu Yuan placed the Jade Box in front of Zhou Qing, asking him to take a good look at the Blood Jade Centipede, “Help me see what kind of centipede this is. Is it poisonous? If I want to use it, how can I do so without getting harmed?”

Zhou Qing stiffened slightly, shifted his body a bit, and with the strange fragrance still lingering around him, tried to calm down and examine the centipede in the box.

After staring for a while, he hesitated and asked, “Is this a Divine Blood Variant?”

A Divine Blood Variant?

Hearing this new term, Lu Yuan’s eyes lit up instantly and he quickly asked,

“Xiaoqing, do you recognize this centipede?”

Zhou Qing shook his head, “I don’t recognize the centipede itself, but I’ve heard my father speak of something similar. It is said that among Heaven and Earth, there are always some different species that possess the sacred bloodline of the ancients.

Due to their bloodlines, these different species are often incredibly powerful and miraculous, hence they are called Divine Blood Variants.”

According to the medical books, these Divine Blood Variants often possess various incredible feats due to their bloodlines.”

Some are even like the elixirs of legends, able to bring the dead back to life and regrow bones. There are even rumors that consuming a Divine Blood Variant could grant its bloodline, allowing for Feathered Ascension.”

However, these are just hearsay. Although recorded in the medical books, no one has ever truly seen them. At least, none of the generations in the Zhou Family had.”

But today, seeing the centipede in his master’s hand, he realized that such a miraculous bloodline indeed existed in the world.

“Just by smelling its fragrance, I feel as if I am about to become an Immortal.

Truly wondrous.”

Zhou Qing spoke with a sigh of wonder.

At this moment, he was certain that this was indeed a Divine Blood Variant and one that could heal injuries no less.

If he were to consume it, his wounds would heal instantly, and there might even be other great benefits.

However, this item belonged to his master, and even knowing its effects, he had not the slightest desire to covet it.

‘My master has shown me immense kindness and deep affection. Even if I can never stand up again, I will not covet what belongs to him.’ He silently vowed in his heart.

Lu Yuan, on the other hand, didn’t notice his disciple’s inner thoughts.

Just as Zhou Qing would never betray him, Lu Yuan also fully trusted the disciple he had raised since childhood.

At this moment, not thinking too much, he was even more excited to learn the origin of the Blood Jade Centipede and said eagerly, “I didn’t expect the centipede to have such an extraordinary origin. Xiaoqing, I won’t lie to you:

this item holds divine powers and can help me in my cultivation, but I had no idea how to use it.

Since you know its origin, do you have a solution?”

Zhou Qing listened and thought carefully. After a while, he replied, “There might be a way, but I would need two or three days to figure it out.”

“Alright, I will leave this matter to you then.” Lu Yuan agreed immediately.

Looking at the Blood Jade Centipede, it didn’t seem like it would spoil within just a few days.

He could wait for this small amount of time..
