The Physician Tycoon

Wang Yan grabbed Ye Kai by the ear and returned to the Zhang family compound.

Wang Yan shouted angrily, "Kneel down!"

Ye Kai stood there stubbornly.

"Guards, bring me my whip!"

A man ran over carrying a whip. Wang Yan snatched the whip and lashed Ye Kai across the back.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

The crisp sound of whipping echoed in the courtyard.

Wang Yan yelled and punched, "I told you to do chores for that little wench, I'll beat you to death!"

"I feed you and clothe you every day, and you still work for other people! You ungrateful wretch!"

A thunderous boom resounded.

Large raindrops began to fall.

Wang Yan quickly ran down the corridor and yelled at Ye Kai, "Fool, aren't you going to admit your mistake?"

Ye Kai stood blankly in the rain, as if he hadn't heard Wang Yan's words.

"If you still won't admit your mistake, I'll let the rain soak you to death!"

A gust of wind blew in, bringing rain that pelted Wang Yan, who quickly took shelter inside the house.

"Boom!" Another clap of thunder!

A golden lightning bolt pierced Ye Kai's forehead.

The image of an old Taoist priest with a white beard appeared in Ye Kai's mind.

This old Taoist priest was actually the one who gave Ye Kai the book thirteen years ago!

The old Taoist priest has hardly changed at all compared to thirteen years ago.

With white hair and a youthful face, he has a lovely smile.

If it weren't for his long white beard, you'd think he was a young man.

The white-bearded old Taoist suddenly let out a clear laugh, the sound as resounding as a bell, echoing in Ye Kai's mind.

"Ye Kai, heed my command!"

The old Taoist's voice was deafening, as if the whole world could hear him.

Ye Kai shuddered and immediately focused his mind to listen to the old Taoist's next words.

"I am the Celestial Calabash Immortal. Since our last parting, you have been able to persist in practicing your skills for over ten years without interruption; this is truly remarkable!"

"I am moved by your sincerity, and I have come to help you open up your Ren and Du meridians and master the One-Finger Divine Skill and the Cloud Ladder Leap."

The Calabash Immortal slowly extended a finger and pointed it directly at Ye Kai.

A surge of powerful true energy, like a raging wave, burst forth from the fingertip of the Calabash Immortal and rushed into Ye Kai's body.

This true energy surged wildly through Ye Kai's meridians, breaking through any blockages and easily overcoming all obstacles.

He eventually succeeded in opening up his Ren and Du meridians.

After completing all this, the Calabash Immortal withdrew his finger and sighed softly, a sigh that seemed to contain endless感慨 and helplessness.

Ye Kai quickly asked, "Master, why did you sigh? Do you despise your disciple for being dull-witted and unworthy of being cultivated?"

The Calabash Immortal waved his hand, "No, this matter has nothing to do with you."

Ye Kai became even more curious and pressed on, "Master, what is it that makes you sigh? If you have any worries, perhaps I can help you."

The Calabash Immortal was silent for a moment, then slowly said:

"Thirteen years ago, I was traveling around here when I encountered the Rainbow Fairy who was cultivating here. I fell in love with her at first sight and began to pursue her passionately."

Ye Kai's eyes widened; he never expected that the Calabash Immortal had such a romantic story.

The Calabash Immortal continued, "However, the fairy has given me a difficult problem."

She said she had seven female disciples scattered throughout the world, each wearing a jade pendant.

If I can take on a disciple in the mortal realm and send him to find these seven disciples and collect the seven jade pendants, she will be with me.

Now, I'm entrusting this important and arduous task to you!

Ye Kai replied respectfully, "Yes, Master!"

"I will give you a jade gourd. This gourd has seven sections, and each section contains the elixirs needed for cultivation, as well as various rare treasures."

"The key to this jade gourd is on the Rainbow Fairy's disciple."

"You must find them and cultivate with them to successfully pass the level and master the unparalleled divine skill!" The voice of the Calabash Immortal was solemn and earnest.

Ye Kai quickly asked, "Please enlighten me, Master, how can we find these seven young ladies?"

"The Rainbow Fairy left a message: take one character from each of their names, and the result is red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple. This is the clue for you to find them."

Ye Kai suddenly realized: "So that's how it is! Thank you for your guidance, Master."

The Calabash Immortal continued, "Three years later, the Rainbow Fairy will return to this place."

You must find them and succeed in your training within these three years.

Only in this way can I, your teacher, be bound to the fairy for eternity.

If I miss this opportunity, I fear I will be left to grow old alone!

The power I imparted to you will vanish, and you will revert to being an ordinary person.

Ye Kai knew the matter was of great importance, and he solemnly promised his master, "Master, rest assured, I will do my utmost and live up to your expectations!"

With a wave of his arm, the Calabash Immortal sent a crystal-clear jade gourd flying toward Ye Kai.

The jade gourd burrowed into Ye Kai's body and merged with him.

"This gourd is one of my treasures. Whether you can find them depends entirely on your fate and destiny!"

One last thing from your teacher: you are destined to be surrounded by romantic entanglements, and many women will be attracted to you.

However, you cannot be intimate with any woman other than these seven girls; otherwise, you will lose a year of your lifespan for each woman you seduce!

Ye Kai's heart tightened. "Yes, disciple will remember it!"

The figure of the Calabash Immortal vanished from Ye Kai's sight like lightning, leaving only a dazzling golden light streaking across the sky.

After a while, Ye Kai's mind gradually cleared, and he began to recall his experiences over the past six months.

Because of his obsession with practicing martial arts, he unknowingly went astray, neglecting his studies and being expelled from school.

To make matters worse, his father was so enraged by the incident that he suffered a stroke, and coupled with his chronic illness, he passed away.

If it weren't for Sun Hongxia's meticulous care, he probably would have starved to death long ago.

Just as Ye Kai was immersed in grief, he suddenly felt some strange changes happening to his body.

His muscles received a tremendous amount of energy in an instant, as if they had been reactivated, and began to grow and expand wildly.

His body is undergoing an unprecedented transformation.

Ye Kai looked at his body in surprise. He found that his muscles had become exceptionally strong, with clear lines, and every muscle was full of power.

He tried to stand up, stretched, and heard his joints cracking and popping like firecrackers.

Ye Kai stretched out his index finger and poked a stone in the yard, and a hole appeared in the stone!

Ye Kai shouted excitedly, "I've mastered the One-Finger Divine Skill!"
