Chapter 137 - Perfectly Healthy (2/2)

Sometime later, Meixiu left the room and closed the lights whilst Yuan returned to Cultivation Online.

After returning to his room in the game, Yuan sat on the bed and spoke out loud, ”Xiao Hua, Feng Feng, I have a question. Can you come out for a moment?”

A second later, Xiao Hua came out of his necklace whilst Feng Yuxiang emerged from his chest.

”What's the matter, Young Master?” Feng Yuxiang asked him.

”Well… it's like this…”

Yuan proceeded to tell them about his condition in the real world without saying it's him.

”Wow, that sounds horrible…” Feng Yuxiang shook her head afterward, and she continued, ”If I had to live like that, I'd probably ask to be killed.”

”...”

Yuan was speechless. But it was not as though he didn't understand Feng Yuxiang's thoughts.

”Feng Feng, you said that your phoenix blood could cure all illness, right? What if a person in that condition consumes your blood but doesn't heal? Then what would that mean?” Yuan then asked her.

”Indeed, my phoenix blood can cure all illnesses. However, there is a limit to such abilities, as it will only cure mortal illnesses,” she said.

”Mortal illness? What does that even mean?” Yuan raised his eyebrows.

Xiao Hua then spoke, ”Just like poison and medicine, there are many levels of illnesses. In other words, there are illnesses only mortals can have whilst Cultivators are immune to them. However, that goes both ways as there are illnesses that can only affect Cultivators but not mortals, as we have different bodies and immune systems.”

”Heavens… I didn't know there exists such a thing…” Yuan mumbled.

”Anyway, my blood can heal all mortal illnesses and most illnesses that affect only Cultivators. If this is a Cultivator we're talking about then that is most likely the case. If the crippled person is a mortal… then that person must have contracted something extremely rare and powerful that would even affect Cultivators.”

”Is this person someone you know, Young Master? If that's the case, it'd be better if you find a real expert. After all, we're not doctors… at least I don't think so…” Feng Yuxiang turned to look at Xiao Hua who shook her head.

”Xiao Hua only knows the basics,” she said.

”A real expert, huh? Where can I find one?” Yuan then asked.

”I know of a few renowned doctors in the Lower Heavens but they are always traveling so I don't always know where they are. However, if I sense their aura, I'll immediately let you know, Young Master.” Feng Yuxiang said.

”Thanks a bunch, Feng Feng. I'll be counting on you.” Yuan nodded.
