Chapter 1610: Chapter 1630: Establishing Merit and Virtue

Yusuf Zuck’s lengthy petition quickly got sent away, and Yusuf, along with the Rat King, continued on their journey.

A month later, they arrived at a market town, but the place was deserted, reeking with decomposed bodies everywhere.

The town appeared to be in disarray, as if the Immortal Citizens had hurriedly fled.

Yusuf examined the corpses and found that none had been killed; they all seemed to have died naturally, in their courtyards or on their beds.

Yusuf frowned deeply, as these people seemed to have died from a severe illness.

"Let’s go!" Yusuf wasted no time and continued heading south.

As they traveled, they found the main road crowded with people; some were with their families, while others carried seriously ill relatives.

The Rat King, being quite smart, didn’t wait for Yusuf’s instructions and went off to investigate. Soon after, he hurried back to Yusuf and whispered, "Plague, a great plague. This area is called the Southeast Province, and the plague has already started spreading throughout it. In some villages and towns, all the Immortal Citizens have perished, and even in some big cities, deaths are starting to occur. Right now, people are fleeing, trying to escape the Southeast Province to find refuge elsewhere."

"Plague?" Yusuf arched an eyebrow, "How do Immortals get plagued?"

"That, I’m not sure," the Rat King shook his head.

"Who governs this Southeast Province?" Yusuf asked again.

"It’s still under the jurisdiction of the Jacobs Family."

"Let’s go, save those people ahead!" Yusuf dared not delay, quickly rushing into the crowd, seeking out those gravely ill.

His method of saving people was simple—bloodletting!

Indeed, he let his own blood, not using the Purple Water Droplet since it was limited, so he used his own blood.

His blood, modified by the Purple Blood Beads and infused with the giant spirit bloodline, was an unparalleled divine remedy. Not only could it cure a minor Immortal Realm plague, but even a divine plague!

He moved quickly along the road, continuously biting his own fingers to drip blood into the mouths of those heavily afflicted.

And his blood was amazingly miraculous; anyone who drank it would immediately recover and become lively.

Yusuf saved as he walked, followed by a massive crowd.

These people wanted to know who their savior was, but the savior said nothing and kept saving people along the way, so they could only follow!

Savior, benefactor, rescuer... and many more titles were shouted by the Immortal Citizens!

What Yusuf didn’t know was that as he kept saving people, his wrists turned a golden color and the transformation continued inward.

He didn’t know that doing good deeds could forge a Golden Body; he did good purely to live in a different way, seeking redemption for past sins.

However, the world works in mysterious ways. Although he sought nothing, his Golden Body grew, something that could not be achieved even in secluded cultivation!

The fleeing Immortal Citizens on the official road soon spread the word that a savior was rescuing them and could cure the plague, and soon people flocked from all directions.

Especially ahead of Yusuf, a massive crowd had gathered, covering the entire wilderness, numbering not in the millions but in the hundreds of thousands!

"Why are there so many people ahead?" Yusuf was already pale, realizing his blood was finite. If each person took a sip, how many could he save? His own blood production could never keep up with the rate of bloodletting!

"I’ll go find out; master, please rest a bit!" The Rat King was moved by Yusuf, seeing him as a benevolent master, the best in the world!

Soon, the Rat King found out that the path ahead was blocked by a large river, which had numerous Immortal Soldiers on the opposite bank. No people from the affected areas were allowed to cross, with violators punishable by death. Therefore, everyone was stuck on the riverbank, unable to cross!

Hearing this, Yusuf understood it was likely a decision of the Jacobs Family, to prevent the plague from spreading.

While Yusuf continued treating people and thinking of solutions, thirty-six streams of light suddenly shot across the sky!

"Wow~" Seeing these thirty-six people, all the Immortal Citizens dared not move.

"Sir, it really is you!" The thirty-six people were the Clan Leaders of the Thirty-Six Clans. They were all gathered here, as the plague was a serious matter; if it spread across the entire Immortal Realm, it would be a catastrophe!

The thirty-six quickly landed and bowed deeply to Yusuf. They had just heard about a savior who used his own blood to save plague victims, rescuing countless lives.

Upon hearing the title ’savior,’ they immediately thought of Yusuf and came over!

"Quickly prepare blood replenishing supplies; the Master has been bleeding profusely and is extremely weak!" the Rat King shouted.

"Yes, yes, we will prepare them right away!" Cecilia Jacobs was trembling; she had received Yusuf’s lengthy petition, but due to the outbreak, she and the Thirty-Six Clan Leaders hadn’t had time to implement its suggestions.

"Alright, prepare some. Also, have someone set up a tent here and maintain order. Some refugees left home without food supplies, so try to gather more food to appease them."

"Yes, yes, you’ve thought of everything; we’ll prepare immediately!"

The Thirty-Six Clan Leaders agreed and acted swiftly.

Soon, in less than two hours, a large temporary clinic made of stone appeared in the wilderness. The Thirty-Six Clan Leaders deployed their strongest forces to maintain order, while Yusuf sat inside, eating blood replenishing foods and healing people, all while researching the plague’s origin and developing a cure.

About seventeen days later, after saving countless lives, Yusuf finally developed a prescription and ordered the Thirty-Six Clans to quickly brew the medicine. Everyone, sick or not, should drink a bowl and spread the word about personal hygiene.

Once the prescription was distributed, Yusuf collapsed to the ground, losing consciousness!

Countless Immortal Citizens, hearing of the Divine Doctor Savior’s collapse, gathered, surrounding the clinic completely. They all knelt in prayer, creating an awe-inspiring scene!

The scene moved the Thirty-Six Clan Leaders, never having seen so many ordinary Immortal Citizens gathered in such unity, willingly kneeling and offering blessings.

"Look, the master’s arms have completely turned gold, and there’s gold appearing on his neck..." gasped the Thirty-Six Clan Leaders, as Yusuf, even unconscious, continued to develop his Golden Body!

Luckily, Yusuf regained consciousness after only three hours and immediately asked about the situation.

"Most of the people in the Southeast Province have gathered in this area, currently brewing the medicine. Some have already consumed it and reportedly feel much better!"

"Good!" Yusuf took a deep breath of relief.

"Sir, your benevolent deeds have moved heaven and earth, and praises of you have spread across the Immortal Realm. Many Immortal Citizens are petitioning to build a temple in your honor, to worship you as a divine spirit!" Cecilia Jacobs and the Thirty-Six Clan Leaders all knelt, as the proposal for the temple was something they had discussed, believing Yusuf’s deeds deserved divine status!

"No need for that; divinity doesn’t interest me. I didn’t have any ulterior motives when saving people. By the way, Cecilia Jacobs, have you read my lengthy petition?"

"I have, I have, and we’ve devised a plan to implement it, preparing to announce it to the world."

"Good, quickly carry it out. I’ll go see the refugees."
