Rakish Little Immortal Doctor - Chapter 789 - 789 Seven Stars Wanderer
“What should we do next?” Li Qianfan asked.
According to the original plan, they were supposed to deliver Jiang Xuehan to the branch base in Dachang City.
But now that Jiang Xuehan has been rescued, is there still a point in sending her?
“I’ll report to the higher-ups first,” Liu Ruyan said.
“Don’t rush, let’s review the situation first,” Jiang WanYun suggested.
“That’s a good idea,” Liu Ruyan nodded.
So, Liu Ruyan and Jiang WanYun both sat down, and Li Qianfan along with Ah Hua did the same.
Hei Yue jumped over and coiled on Li Qianfan’s lap, his eyes curiously staring at them, waiting for them to speak.
“Jiang Xuehan is the Sect Leader’s Disciple of the Tianhua Sect, and the Sect Leader of Tianhua is Chen Tianlan, who is at the Peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm.”
“Tianhua Sect has three Elders, all in the Foundation Establishment Realm, either in the mid or late stage, namely Zhao Ruxue, Luo Fengyu, and Zhu Luohong.”
“After we captured Jiang Xuehan, she didn’t contact anyone else, so she must have already reached out to someone from Tianhua Sect before facing us, which is why that person came to her rescue.”
“The person who rescued her was a woman, most likely Jiang Xuehan’s senior sister. Since she’s also at the Peak of the Qi Cultivation Realm and hasn’t reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, she couldn’t possibly be one of the three Elders of Tianhua Sect, let alone the Sect Leader.”
Jiang WanYun stopped here and looked at Liu Ruyan and Li Qianfan, to see if they had anything to add.
Li Qianfan didn’t say anything, but Liu Ruyan spoke, “Last night I talked to Jiang Xuehan for a bit, and I got some important information from her. She was expelled from her sect by her master because she lost his Divine Wisdom Pill; she has been living in Da’an City for three years, and it was in Da’an City where she lost the Divine Wisdom Pill.”
Upon hearing this, both Li Qianfan and Ah Hua turned to look at Hei Yue.
“Could it be that the Divine Wisdom Pill that Hei Yue got was the one Jiang Xuehan lost?” Li Qianfan asked.
“I think so, considering the time and place match up, it explains everything,” Liu Ruyan said.
“Then do I owe a thanks to this Jiang Xuehan?” Hei Yue asked.
“Better not thank her, if she finds out that you ate the Divine Wisdom Pill she lost, she would probably kill you,” Liu Ruyan said.
“Wow, that’s scary,” Hei Yue exclaimed.
“This just shows that Tianhua Sect has a profound background, especially since the Divine Wisdom Pill is very rare. Tianhua Sect’s ability to produce such a pill proves their substantial Alchemy foundation,” Li Qianfan contemplated aloud.
“To summarize, Tianhua Sect is not to be trifled with, even more formidable than the previous Ten Thousand Talisman Sect,” Jiang WanYun concluded.
Jiang WanYun, Liu Ruyan, and Li Qianfan exchanged more insights and opinions, deepening their understanding of Tianhua Sect and Jiang Xuehan.
But the crucial issue remained unresolved—what to do next.
“Ruyan, go ahead and connect with the superiors now, report everything we know, try not to leave out any details,” Jiang WanYun said.
“Alright, I understand,” Liu Ruyan nodded.
With Liu Ruyan reporting, there was nothing for Li Qianfan to do.
Li Qianfan then took Hei Yue to his bedroom and sat down on the floor.
“What are you going to do?” Hei Yue asked.
“I haven’t had the chance to study the Wordless Scroll I won at last night’s auction, now seems like a good time,” Li Qianfan said cheerfully.
“Then give it a try.”
Excitedly, Hei Yue said, eyes wide with anticipation.
Li Qianfan took out the Wordless Scroll from his Storage Ring, unfolding it, but after flipping it back and forth several times, he couldn’t discern anything significant.
Li Qianfan then infused it with True Qi, yet the Wordless Scroll still showed no change.
“Strange, could it be the wrong method?” Li Qianfan muttered to himself.
“Don’t you have to bond with a Spiritual Artifact by dripping blood on it? Try that,” Hei Yue suggested.
“Exactly, how could I have forgotten this?”
Li Qianfan spoke and promptly bit his finger, letting his blood drip onto the Wordless Scroll.
The Wordless Scroll emitted a faint red glow, absorbing Li Qianfan’s blood at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, after a moment, the red glow dimmed, and the Wordless Scroll still showed nothing.
“Why is there still no change?” Li Qianfan was completely baffled.
“Could the recognition of master have failed?” Hei Yue suggested.
Li Qianfan scrutinized the scroll right in front of his eyes, but despite a long examination, he could not make head or tail of it.
“Could this scroll really be useless? Did I waste my money?”
Li Qianfan muttered to himself, finally setting the scroll down.
But just at that moment, Li Qianfan shockingly discovered that he was no longer in Hei Yue’s room.
He found himself in a peculiar space, shrouded in a hazy gray, endlessly vast all around.
“Finally, a fated person has arrived.”
“Seems pretty decent.”
“Wonder how his comprehension skills are.”
“Looks quite sharp; he shouldn’t be a fool.”
Voices echoed from all around, and the next moment, seven seated silhouettes appeared in front of Li Qianfan.
“Who are you?”
Li Qianfan was startled, hastily retreating several steps and assuming a defensive stance.
“I am Heavenly Rat Star,” said the elderly man on the far left.
“I am Heavenly Chef Star,” spoke the short and stout old man next.
“I am Heavenly Skill Star,” stated the third one, thin and tall like a pole.
“I am Heavenly Calculation Star.”
“I am Heavenly Qu Star.”
“I am Tian Huanxing.”
“I am Heavenly Talisman Star.”
These seven old men, tall or short, fat or thin, some with kindly eyes and gentle expressions, others smiling slyly as if concealing deceitfulness, introduced themselves one by one.
“You may call us the Seven Stars Wanderers,” said the old man who claimed to be Heavenly Rat Star, his expression inscrutably profound.
Li Qianfan hesitated before asking, “So what exactly is this place?”
“This is an Illusion Realm Space created by my illusion technique; everything you see here is unreal,” Tian Huanxing said with a smile.
“So, are you also unreal?” Li Qianfan asked further.
Tian Huanxing did not answer Li Qianfan’s question, but instead said, “We, the Seven Stars Wanderers, are nearing our time, reluctant to part with our cultivation, so we left behind the Seven Star Scroll to pass on our skills. Young man, since you have obtained the Seven Star Scroll, you are the fated one.”
“So, you’re going to teach me your skills? There’s such good fortune?”
Li Qianfan was both shocked and delighted, eagerly rubbing his hands together.
“Whether you can learn, and how much you can learn, depends on your own fortune,” Tian Huanxing stated.
“The power of the Seven Star Scroll is limited; each of us can only teach you for one hour,” Heavenly Rat Star added.
