Chapter 321 - 321 65 Can You Do It
Chapter 321: Chapter 65: Can You Do It? Chapter 321: Chapter 65: Can You Do It? “Why are you two so silent?” the Bear King suddenly asked in a deep, resonant voice. “Have you become mute?”
In the past, people he traveled with would flatter him incessantly, complimenting him so much that it made him feel very much at ease. Their meticulous and thoughtful service was the norm.
But what’s the situation with these two this time? Not only were they not offering the usual reverence, they weren’t even speaking basic words.
Could it be, they were looking down on him, the King?
Feng Yin and Sky Stealer both rolled their eyes almost simultaneously.
Feng Yin genuinely didn’t want to speak.
While Sky Stealer genuinely didn’t want to deal with the Bear King, let alone respect him.
After all, he had an immortal by his side, and he was on course towards the Great Dao. Why the hell would he have time to chitchat with a bear?
Why should I respect you anyway?!
Seeing both of them refusing to speak, the Bear King felt even more stifled and asked, “Don’t you guys want to know why I’m making this trip outside?”
Feng Yin shrugged, saying, “As someone of your status, every casual remark you make is confidential, something we lower rank individuals dare not snoop. Unless you willingly share, how could we presume to pry into your affairs?”
The Bear King snapped, “Anything I say becomes confidential huh? If you don’t want to talk, then just keep silent!”
Feng Yin rolled his eyes, and focussed on moving forward, covering dozens of miles in silence.
Growing impatient, the Bear King complained, “Can’t you guys chat amongst yourselves? All you do is trudge along like fools. Apart from traveling, can’t you do anything else?”
He had come out on this trip not only to complete a task but also to relish the feeling of being served. Why were these two so clueless, so unappreciative?
With a synchronized sigh, Feng Yin and Sky Stealer thought, ‘This damn bear is indeed hard to handle.’
If you speak to him, he loses his temper ready to bash someone; if you don’t, he complains about your silence. What the hell is this…a bear anyway!
“So, may I ask, your majesty, why are you bound by this peculiar restriction of needing to be accompanied by a human in order to leave the Mount Siji region? If you’re willing to answer, please do so, otherwise, just ignore this question,” suggested Feng Yin.
The Bear King, Bear Overlord’s, face darkened even more, his eyes reflecting a menacing glimmer.
“You can’t ask this!” he retorted.
Feng Yin rolled his eyes, hinting, “then may I ask why you’re leaving this time?”
In fact, what Feng Yin wanted to ask was why hethe Bear King was leaving this time, as for what happened before, Feng Yin had no intention of finding out. He knew that it must involve some high-level scheme. Knowing too much about this was unlikely to be advantageous!
Besides, he suspected that the Bear King would inevitably blurt out the details when he couldn’t hold back any longer. In such a case, he would be passively informed which would be a different scenario.
With a sigh, the Bear King complained, “Do you think I want to go out? If I weren’t at my wit’s end, who would want to wander around in human cities for no reason?”
“Huh?”
“A few months ago, I had a couple of children. My third child, in particular, was born with exceptional talents, far superior to his brothers. However, he is extremely weak, and his innate constitution makes it hard for him to live for long… Even with my help, in the form of the demon pill, I am unable to change his fate…”
Depression was apparent on the Bear King’s face as he continued, “So, here we are. This is my second visit to human settlements in search of a divine healer.”
“Oh? So the previous divine healers’ treatments didn’t work?” Feng Yin asked in surprise.
This was indeed his field of expertise.
“Yes…”
Depression dominated the Bear King’s face as he continued, “The world of humans is now filled with quacks claiming to be well-known doctors. I first went to the Qin country, then the Qi country, but none of the famed doctors from those two countries could help. Now, I can only try my luck in the Chu country…”
Feng Yin shook his head, “May I ask, what kind of divine healers have you been searching for?”
The Bear King explained quite naturally, “Of course, I let the humans who were accompanying me go anywhere and find whoever was famous. Then, we would bring them back together to treat my child… In the end, they all received some gratitude money and were sent away…”
Upon hearing this, Feng Yin immediately stopped, “Geez, you should have mentioned this earlier! Is this what you needed a divine healer for? I can cure your cub.”
In line with Feng Yin’s principles, he didn’t really want to involve himself in these trivial matters and was more than okay with letting the old bear figure things out for himself.
But upon hearing that he might need to participate in the search himself, and also that he might need to accompany them back… to then be sent away?
Who has that much time to waste?
But this was an Emperor, and unfortunately, he, Feng Yin, couldn’t afford to offend, fight, or escape him. In that case, wouldn’t the cultivation of his own Gold Rank be in jeopardy?
The Bear King took a loud huff. He rubbed his feet on the ground and had already travelled several meters before he could react and quickly skid to a halt, furrowing two trenches in the ground in the process.
“What did you say?” The Bear King looked doubtful as he gazed at Feng Yin. “Are you saying… you can cure him?”
He tilted his head, studying Feng Yin, and gave a small chuckle, “Just by your hand? A disease that neither world-renowned doctors nor mighty cultivators like myself could cure…”
At this point, Sky Stealer couldn’t help but interject coldly, “And what could you possibly know about this? It’s simply a lack of foundation and an innate deficiency. Correcting it would be a piece of cake for my young master. And here you are, a Demon Emperor, having eyes but failing to recognize the real god! Hehehe…”
“Failing to recognize the real god? Hahaha…”
The Bear King looked mockingly first at Sky Stealer and then at Feng Yin, “A real god? Hahahaha…”
Sky Stealer was immediately angered!
You can insult me, but you cannot insult my future master!
“What? Just because you’re the Demon Emperor, are you supposed to know all the affairs of the Three Realms, without any omissions? The heavens are high and the earth wide, there must exist places even beyond your bear emperor’s reach. How could you deny the existence of divine physicians who can restore life and save the dying, performing acts beyond mortal capabilities? Before my young master even attempts to help, you’ve already assumed a stance of disbelief. How can you not recognize a true god when you see one?” Sky Stealer’s monkey face turned red.
That feeling, it was even more infuriating than being insulted himself.
A demon emperor, so what?
Could he be compared to an immortal?
He’s an ignorant thing, whether he’s the Bear King or the Demon Emperor. He’s just blind at heart!
The Demon Emperor skeptically watched Sky Stealer with suspicion in his eyes. Not being good at expressions was one thing, but he was still the Demon Emperor, a top practitioner in this world. With his years of experience, how could he fail to see that Sky Stealer’s agitation and advocacy came from the heart, with absolutely no pretense?
It’s like… as if it were him in his younger days, when someone insulted the Demon King he worshiped, enraged, he retorted…
No, this monkey-faced man’s emotions are even more intense, as if his divine residence was desecrated!
Does this young man really have some skills?
“Are you… telling the truth?” The Demon Emperor turned his head, looked gravely at Feng Yin.
Feng Yin smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, “I never intended to meddle in other people’s affairs, but hearing that after descending the mountain, I would still have to find a doctor for you… and I would have to follow you back, that’s too much trouble! With all that effort and time, I have important matters to attend to and really don’t have time to waste. So, for once, I’ll break the rules and give you a hand!”
“Why should I believe you?” The Demon Emperor squinted his eyes.
“…”
Feng Yin said speechlessly, “Why should you? Because your son needs treatment! If I hadn’t been in a hurry, why would I have revealed my identity? I could’ve just followed you around the world for a while, and everything would’ve been fine! I dared to make this proposition because I have confidence. How could I stand to benefit by exaggerating on your territory? Am I not afraid you might slap me to death? Wouldn’t that save me from doing anything else?”
The Demon Emperor looked enlightened, “That’s true. It’s my territory.”
Feng Yin and Sky Stealer were speechless.
“Are you really a divine doctor? A physician?” The Demon Emperor again confirmed, “You can’t lie to me. If you can’t heal, I’ll be in a real mess.”
“…”
Sky Stealer and Feng Yin both wore confused expressions.
It’s the territory of Mount Siji, shouldn’t you, the Demon Emperor, be dominating? How can you be in any trouble?
“You don’t understand…”
The Demon Emperor looked dismayed, “This is already the third time I’ve descended the mountain to seek a physician… The previous ones lacked the ability to prescribe the right medicine, and all they gave were drugs to consolidate the constitution and fortify the origin… sigh.”
Hearing his lament, even Feng Yin felt sympathetic for him.
But for such a foundational deficiency, there were really no effective remedies; even if Kong Gaohan were here, he could only prescribe some drugs to consolidate the constitution and fortify the origin and, on top of that, help with acupuncture and high-level spiritual power. That’s all.
There’s nothing more to it.
Even the general methods of supplementation common in the world can’t cure this Innate deficiency.
Being weak from birth and lacking Innate vigor is hard to be adjusted to normal status in any world.
To put it bluntly: Apart from extraordinary divine measures like those of Feng Yin, no one in the world can cure it!
“If there’s no way, I’ll be nagged to death by my wife…”
The Demon Emperor looked to the sky in dismay, “I’m almost unable to be a bear…”
Feng Yin: “… cough cough, man’s power sometimes runs out, that’s just something inevitable.”
“I understand that, but the problem is that I get scolded…chastised too miserably…”
The Demon Emperor’s eyes turned red, “This time, right after I descended the mountain, I brought you back, if you fail again, even if you die, my wife will definitely think I randomly picked someone to fool her, and she will never let me off the hook…”
Feng Yin: “…”
What does he mean by ‘you’ll just die’?
“You mean to say all the physicians who came to the mountain before died?” Feng Yin asked.
“How is that possible?”
The Demon Emperor naively said, “They never did anything harmful to me, they all tried their best to treat, it’s just they lacked the ability to heal, why would they die? As long as they haven’t hunted down our people in my mountain, I have no reason to kill!”
“Oh… So in essence, Your Majesty hasn’t killed a human for years?” Feng Yin was stunned.
Could there be such a kind-hearted Demon Race?
“Don’t make baseless remarks! You’re tarnishing my military achievements!”
The Demon Emperor continued naively, “Everyone intending harm, once found by me, none were set free. Not one could escape!”
He blinked his enormous bear eyes and proudly said, “Over the years, at least eight hundred thousand to a million humans have been buried at the hands of my demon race on Mount Siji, maybe more!”
That…
Feng Yin instantly felt a toothache.
