Douluo Continent: I Can Summon Heroic Spirits

Chapter 103 Healing Jiang's Mother; People from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School Arrive

Jiang Nannan could naturally choose to leave her mother here alone and return to Shrek Academy first.

But how could she possibly do that? Her mother had toiled for her for half her life, nearly dying herself, and she absolutely couldn't bear to leave her mother alone in this foreign land where she had no relatives or friends!

After a slight hesitation, Jiang Nannan raised her head, her eyes resolute: "Miss, we are willing to stay for treatment for six months. Could you please look after my mother for me while I go find a place to stay?"

Upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed across Orange's eyes.

Jiang Nannan's profile stated that she was a student at Shrek Academy, a fact that Ju Zi naturally remembered very well. She had assumed that upon hearing about the six-month treatment period, Jiang Nannan would choose to leave her mother behind while she returned to the academy to attend classes.

After all, Shrek Academy is a sacred place that countless soul masters on the continent dream of squeezing into. How could this girl make her choice without the slightest hesitation?

Looking at Jiang Nannan's resolute eyes, Ju Zi couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

Affectionate.

Orange's heart trembled slightly, and her family, her loving father, and her gentle mother uncontrollably surfaced in her mind—

And then there was the catastrophe brought about by the Star Luo Empire.

Duke of the Tiger!

Orange suddenly closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and forcibly suppressed the surging hatred and bitterness in her chest.

When she opened her eyes again, she had regained her gentle and dignified demeanor.

When he looked at Jiang Nannan, there was a hint of sympathy in his eyes.

"Well then, Miss Jiang Nannan. The Star Tower headquarters recently hired a top-tier healing-type Soul Master."

"Her martial soul is very unique. It is said that as long as the cultivation level is below Soul Master, there is no injury that she cannot heal."

"Although she hasn't officially started working yet, since you're Nana's friend, I can personally ask her to come and check on your mother's situation."

"Really?!"

Jiang Nannan's pretty face flushed red, and she said excitedly, feeling flattered.

If the treatment time can be shortened, she will not only avoid the risk of being fired from Shrek Academy, but her mother will also suffer less and recover sooner!

Orange smiled slightly: "Then I'll send her a soul communication message right now. Let's wait in the lounge for a moment."

While waiting, Ju Zi made full use of her social skills and subtly extracted a lot of information from Jiang Nannan.

Upon learning that the other party had achieved such cultivation at such a young age, Ju Zi secretly clicked her tongue in amazement. As expected of Shrek Academy, this was indeed a rare prodigy.

Although they successfully obtained a lot of internal information about Shrek Academy, Orange's other core objective completely failed.

Back then, Nana and her orange were both newbies who entered the Star Tower for interviews in the same batch. But in the blink of an eye, Nana was parachuted into becoming the head of the Tiandou City branch tower under the direct arrangement of the tower master Ye Chenxing!

Ju Zi considered herself to be superior in appearance, methods, and intelligence. After a brief encounter with Nana, she was certain that the other woman did not possess any outstanding qualities that far surpassed her own.

Something fishy must be going on! There must be some secret connection between Nana and the mysterious tower master Ye Chenxing. I thought I could get some information about Nana from Jiang Nannan, but after talking for a long time, I couldn't find a single useful clue.

On what basis? Could it be that—

A light bulb suddenly popped out from above Orange's head.

Could it be that the Tower Master Ye Chenxing has a thing for Nana?!

A flash of inspiration struck, and Orange's imaginary mini-drama began to unfold:

The day the interview ended, no sooner had I left than Nana was called into a secret room.

Inside the secret room, Nana didn't find the interviewer, but rather Ye Chenxing, who had been waiting for a long time. He was grinning maliciously, preparing to sexually harass her.

Just as Orange's thoughts were running wild like a runaway dog, and the images in her mind were about to slide into an indescribable abyss unsuitable for children.

"Ju Zi, why are you spacing out? I'll dock your pay if you do."

A clear voice rang out from behind. Orange turned around abruptly, and upon seeing that familiar face, she froze on the spot like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

"Tower—Tower Master!"

Orange blushed slightly. Thinking about the elaborate scenarios she had just imagined for the Tower Master and Nana in the secret room, her eyes flickered. Although no one knew about her imagination, she always felt like she was being seen through by the Tower Master.

Ye Chenxing had just returned to the Star Tower headquarters and was still thinking about the development of the Star Tower. At this moment, he was in the tower when he received a message from Ju Zi that a Star Tower member named Jiang Nannan wanted to seek treatment from Ye Lingling.

This undoubtedly piqued his interest, so he brought Ye Lingling along.

His gaze passed over the orange and landed on the blonde girl beside him.

With just one glance, Ye Chenxing confirmed that the other person was indeed himself.

She has a slender and well-proportioned figure, long golden hair cascading down her back in large waves, snow-white skin, and eyes like clear water. With each glance, she exudes an elegant and refined air.

Even the slight weariness in her eyes could not conceal her magnificent beauty.

She truly deserves to be recognized as the most beautiful girl in Shrek Academy's outer courtyard in the original work.

but.

Shouldn't Jiang Nannan be studying at Shrek Academy right now? How did she end up in the Sun Moon Empire, and even at the headquarters of the Star Tower?

Moreover, they came to find Ye Lingling, a healing-type Soul Master.

Could she be injured? Impossible. Even if she was injured at the academy, given Xu Sanshi's sycophantic nature, he would have already hired the best healing-type soul master in his own family for her. Why would she have to travel all this way to seek medical help?

Wait a minute—are you looking for a healing-type Soul Master?

Ye Chenxing suddenly realized that in the original story, the girl was desperate and had to agree to the extremely humiliating conditions offered by the Xuanming Sect in order to obtain the life-saving pill to treat her mother's heart disease. This almost became a lifelong psychological shadow.

But now, things have changed!

The Star Tower has emerged out of nowhere in recent years, and the medical pods and high-level healing-type Soul Masters of the Heaven Dou City branch tower have long been renowned. With such a legitimate way to save her mother, how could Jiang Nannan, unless she's stupid, possibly hold her nose and do something like that?

"I see----"

Having figured this out, Ye Chenxing led Ye Lingling forward.

"It's you?!"

The moment Jiang Nannan saw Ye Chenxing's face clearly, her beautiful eyes widened involuntarily, and she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Have we met before?" Ye Chenxing raised an eyebrow.

"In Tiandou City—" Jiang Nannan nodded repeatedly, her mind and spirit trembling.

In her mind, the Star Tower Master was a highly respected, white-bearded ninth-level Soul Master who had single-handedly created such a colossal institution as the Star Tower. Even a genius like Nana spoke of him with the fervent admiration of a junior for a senior.

result----

The white-haired boy before him, who looked only slightly older than himself, was the legendary tower master?! Huge...

The stark contrast in appearance caused Jiang Nannan's brain to briefly shut down.

Seeing the atmosphere getting a little awkward, Ju Zi sneaked over and nudged Jiang Nannan with her elbow, lowering her voice: "I know our tower master is... but you don't have to be so obsessed, do you?"

Jiang Nannan suddenly realized what was happening, her pretty face flushed red, and she quickly lowered her head slightly: "Greetings, Tower Master! I am Jiang Nannan, a member of the Star Tower of Tiandou City."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but steal another glance.

Up close, the impact of this face is even stronger. The handsome and talented male students at Shrek Academy pale in comparison to him; they are simply not in the same league.

Ye Chenxing smiled faintly: "I have a general understanding of your situation. This is Ye Lingling. I brought her here specifically so that she can take over your mother's follow-up treatment."

Jiang Nannan's eyes instantly lit up with joy, and she thanked the two of them repeatedly.

Inside the testing room.

The pale blue healing aura gradually faded, Ye Lingling withdrew her martial spirit, and the phantom of the Nine Heart Begonia dissipated at her fingertips.

She took small, quick steps to stand in front of Ye Chenxing, tilting her head slightly to look at the tower master who was a head taller than her.

Looking at the girl in front of him, Ye Chenxing gave a helpless twitch of his lips.

For some reason, as a summoned heroic spirit, Ye Lingling's personality is even more socially awkward and introverted than in the original work, and her taciturn nature is amplified to an extreme.

Ye Chenxing turned slightly to the side and lowered her head.

Ye Lingling leaned close to his ear, her warm breath brushing against his earlobe, and reported the results in a very soft voice.

After listening, Ye Chenxing nodded slightly to indicate that he understood.

Seeing that the task was completed, Ye Lingling didn't linger for a second longer. Without saying a word, she turned around and drifted out of the room like a gust of wind.

Jiang Nannan stared intently at Ye Chenxing with hope in her eyes.

Ye Chenxing looked at her, sighed helplessly, and said frankly, "Ye Lingling's Nine-Heart Begonia is indeed a miraculous healing technique, but your mother's heart disease is a congenital defect. The Nine-Heart Begonia can only heal the wound. Forcibly using life force to fill the defect is ultimately only treating the symptoms, not the root cause."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Nannan's eyes dimmed slightly, but she quickly rallied and clenched her fists.

It's okay, six months is fine. As long as my mother can fully recover in the end, even if it takes five or ten years, I'm willing.

But the next moment, Ye Chenxing shook his head and said something surprising: "Forget it, dragging it out for half a year is too troublesome. I, the tower master, will take action myself."

"personally?"

Jiang Nannan and Ju Zi looked at each other, both seeing utter bewilderment in each other's eyes.

Ye Chenxing didn't give them a chance to ask questions, and pointed to the door: "The tower is confidential, unauthorized personnel should stay away. You two, go outside and wait."

After the two women left, full of suspicion, and closed the door, Ye Chenxing walked alone to the testing chamber and gazed at Jiang's mother, who had fallen into a deep sleep.

He slowly raised his right hand, and deep within his palm, a faint emerald light flowed, radiating a rich vitality that was breathtaking.

"I never imagined that the Life Goddess Authority that came with summoning Gu Yuena would be used in combat for the first time here—"

Outside the door, in the corridor.

Jiang Nannan paced back and forth anxiously, then couldn't help but look at the orange-haired girl beside her: "Miss in charge, is the Tower Master... a healing-type martial soul?"

Orange frowned and shook her head decisively.

What a joke! As a professional undercover agent, she knows Ye Chenxing's information by heart. This guy's martial soul is clearly a dual extreme attribute sun!

In the hospital, cremation is probably the only thing that has anything to do with this tower master's abilities; it's completely unrelated to healing-type soul masters.

Could it be that the Star Tower has secretly developed some incredible medical technology?

Just as Orange was racking her brains trying to figure it out, the tightly closed door was pushed open with a "click".

Ye Chenxing strolled out with his hands in his pockets.

"What's wrong, Tower Master? Have you encountered some troublesome problem?" Orange quickly went to greet her.

"No problem."

"It's over, the surgery was a success."

Even if Ye Chenxing, with the abilities of a level 40 Soul Master, were to activate the Goddess of Life's healing power, curing an ordinary person's illness would be a piece of cake.

"How is this possible?!" Orange's pupils suddenly contracted, and she exclaimed in shock.

She had read through every single word of Jiang's mother's critical condition report, and to declare her cured in just a few minutes? That's absurd! But based on her understanding of Ye Chenxing, he was definitely not the kind of person who liked to boast.

Jiang Nannan didn't care about Ju Zi's shock at all. Upon hearing the words "very successful," she displayed the qualities of an agility-type Soul Master and quickly pushed open the half-closed door and rushed into the room.

Ye Chenxing didn't linger and walked straight outside.

Suppressing the turmoil in her heart, Ju Zi quickly followed beside her, ultimately unable to resist the cat-like urge to investigate: "Tower Master, how did you manage to do that? Do you perhaps possess a medical soul tool that's even more advanced than what headquarters currently has?"

Ye Chenxing paused slightly, turned his head, and gave her a half-smile.

"I have my own methods." His voice was calm and unhurried, yet carried an invisible sense of pressure. "Orange, don't try to figure out my secrets. I've always been very mindful of my boundaries, and I would never maliciously pry into the privacy of Star Tower members."

"Whether she harbors ill intentions or carries a deep-seated hatred, as long as she stays obediently under my control, I can tolerate her."

"Thump"

Orange's heart skipped a beat, and cold sweat instantly crept up her back.

She was very perceptive and naturally understood the implication in Ye Chenxing's words.

What does he mean? Is it a coincidence? Or is he hinting at something?

Have I been seen through? Impossible, my intelligence should...

Orange's breathing gradually quickened, and she didn't even dare to look Ye Chenxing in the eye.

Suddenly, a clear bell rang, breaking the silence.

The tense sense of oppression dissipated instantly. Ye Chenxing took out his soul guide phone from his pocket, glanced at the text message that popped up on the screen, and a smile of interest appeared on his lips.

"Wow, I didn't expect them to be so quick."

"The fact that they were able to make a decision so quickly shows that the charm of my Qiluo Tulip is indeed beyond imagination."

He put away his phone and waved to the still-stiff Orange: "Alright, go check on Jiang Nannan. I need to go to the reception room; some important guests have arrived."
