After I left the sect, the entire sect knelt down and begged for forgiveness.

Chapter 212 Medicine Valley 2
After being introduced to the Medicine Valley by the two disciples who guided her, she gained a general understanding of the place.

There are seven renowned physicians stationed in Medicine Valley, who have taken on many disciples. When they encounter cultivators they cannot treat, these physicians take over their cases.

Elder Wang was a prized student of a renowned physician, skilled in detoxification. Within the authority of a guiding disciple, the highest they could take someone was Elder Wang.

Sword fighting, duels, and sparring are strictly prohibited in the valley. Anyone found doing so, whether a disciple or a visitor, will be expelled and added to the blacklist.

Lin Yan could understand these rules.

Along the way, I saw many shelves of spiritual plants, especially those that were very well maintained. If a fight broke out, they would definitely be affected.

Cultivating each spiritual plant is a labor-intensive process, and the doctors responsible for cultivating them would probably be heartbroken if they were damaged.

She followed the two men to a hall, and after registering, they took her to Elder Wang's residence where he practiced medicine.

"Good afternoon, Elder Wang. We've brought the patient for the consultation, so we won't disturb you any longer."

After the two disciples finished speaking in unison, they immediately disappeared.

Lin Yan looked embarrassed, as if these two disciples were afraid of Elder Wang.

After seeing Elder Wang's appearance clearly, she understood.

The man was wearing a grayish-blue robe. From behind, he looked like a scholar, but when he turned around, he was a burly man with a long scar across his face.

Logically speaking, there should be no shortage of good elixirs for removing scars in Medicine Valley, so he left the scar behind, which must have some important significance.

Elder Wang sized up the newcomer, his brows furrowing and his thick eyebrows tightly pressed together, giving him the impression of being a member of the underworld.

"Are you sick?" he asked, puzzled.

The female cultivator in front of him looked very healthy, with a strong aura around her. She didn't look injured or poisoned at all.

"I do not have."

"What are you doing here if you're not sick?" Elder Wang interrupted before the man could finish speaking.

Why would a perfectly healthy person come here?
"Elder, please don't be in such a hurry!" Lin Yan said with a forced smile. "One of my employers is sick."

After saying that, she took out the array plate, and with her spiritual power input, Lu Ji was teleported out.

Being teleported out was too unexpected. Lu Ji hadn't been notified beforehand, and he was unprepared when he was teleported out. He fell to the ground with a "plop".

Elder Wang carefully examined the newcomer and found that he was indeed seriously ill. Much of his life force had been consumed, and he was suffering greatly.

He quickly applied needles to seal the acupoints, preventing the person from moving, and then put on gloves to turn the person over to examine him.

Lin Yan watched from the side and thought that this person was examining a corpse. If conditions allowed, he would probably perform an autopsy.

He was so focused on treating Lu Ji that he didn't ask her to leave. He figured the doctor would probably ask her some more questions, so he stayed and found a place to sit down, watching her silently.

Seeing Elder Wang's fuss, he waved his sleeve, and a jade platform appeared. He casually used his spiritual power to place the person on the jade platform, and then used a small knife to draw a little blood from Lu Ji.

I don't know what kind of magic weapon they fiddled with for a while before coming to a conclusion.

"Your friend has two kinds of blood fighting inside him, which is why he is like this now. Because the demon blood is dominant, and he has a human body, he has become like this, with beast-like characteristics but unable to use spiritual power."

Lin Yan gave her a look that said, "So this is the conclusion you came to after all this?"

Isn't it obvious? You can tell just by observing!
"You don't seem surprised at all!" Elder Wang said with a look of astonishment.

“Isn’t his condition quite obvious?” Elder Wang retorted with a serious expression: “Of course, we can’t make a final judgment based solely on appearances. We need a full-body examination and blood tests.”

Isn't this supposed to be a cultivation world? How come it's all so scientifically-like? Mortal realms are already using artificial machines and dummies for farming and construction, and here they're putting on a show of "science"?
She didn't know what to say for a moment...

"Is there any hope for him?" she asked, voicing Lu Ji's biggest concern. He was in such a state that he couldn't make his own requests, so she had to come.

Of course, this should be compensated more!

"It can be cured; just replace the blood of the demon beast with his."

"Tsk tsk..." He made it sound so simple! If others were to use Lu Ji for some kind of experiment combining a demon beast and a cultivator, their blood would have already been fused together, so how could they switch?
Are we supposed to drain all the blood and then transfuse fresh blood in?
Even if the cultivation world doesn't consider blood matching, the problem is that blood can't just appear out of thin air to be replaced, right?
Upon closer reflection, she realized that blood matching didn't exist in the cultivation world, so it was quite normal for the Medical Valley to have blood reserves.

"How do we do it? Do we need to bleed while simultaneously administering intravenous fluids?"

"Don't worry, young friend, our Medical Valley has the resources to do this." Elder Wang smiled kindly.

Lin Yan understood; they wanted to discuss consultation fees, right?

She exuded an air of extravagance, as if she had no shortage of money. "No matter how many spirit stones it costs, I can afford it! Please, heal him!"

She didn't feel any pain since it wasn't her own spirit stones being spent. However, Lu Ji only had 200,000 spirit stones in the merchant guild, and she had to take 150,000, leaving only 50,000 high-grade spirit stones for Lu Ji's treatment.

"Young friend, you're so generous! He's lucky to have a friend like you. Is it too much to ask for 8 high-grade spirit stones for treatment?"

"Elder, is it really necessary to set such a price?"

"This is already a very reasonable cost. After all, a blood transfusion is no ordinary procedure."

If Lu Ji, lying on the jade platform, were conscious, he would definitely want to strangle these two! He was lying there, his life hanging in the balance, while these two were actually bargaining. Was that appropriate? Was that reasonable?

"Alright, as long as you can cure him, we are willing to pay this amount of spirit stones."

Elder Wang coughed lightly and said, "We will only begin treatment after paying half the fee."

"..."

Good heavens! They're obsessed with money!

"The spirit stones are stored in the merchant guild, and I don't have any on me. Can't we treat him first? Not to mention me, look at the person lying on the jade platform; he's not the type to lack spirit stones."

Elder Wang had considered all of this and said that his disciple could take her to the town's chamber of commerce to retrieve it.

He would treat half of the patients first, and once he received the spirit stones, he would continue the treatment. He would then pay the remaining spirit stones after the patients were cured.

Everyone says doctors are benevolent, but she doesn't think so! Wouldn't that just make doctors greedy for money?

Lin Yan wasn't a compassionate person and wouldn't use her own spirit stones to pay in advance. At most, she would make another trip to the merchant guild to retrieve all the spirit stones, and after deducting the medical expenses, she would keep the rest for herself.

"Then I'll trouble you, senior! I'll be right back."

She came out of Elder Wang's residence and saw the two disciples who had led the way to her.

"Fairy, we have received instructions to take you to the town."

"Will you two lead the way? Why don't you tell me the directions, and I'll be right back?"

The two exchanged a glance, lowered their heads, and weakly pointed in the direction. "After leaving the Medicine Valley, fly in this direction for about a hundred miles and you'll arrive."
