Chapter 233 - 233 233 Fog Vortex Issue
Chapter 233: Chapter 233 Fog Vortex Issue Chapter 233: Chapter 233 Fog Vortex Issue While questioning Steward Wan, Mu Yunfei also observed Jing Yan.
Jing Yan’s age clearly exceeded her expectations.
Just now, before coming over, she saw it was Steward Wan from the workshop area and Deacon Fang from Red Lotus Academy, fighting with someone, and it was two against one.
However, she hadn’t been able to get a clear view of Jing Yan’s face at that time; his movement was too fast, and given the distance, she had not seen everything clearly.
Now, Mu Yunfei felt deeply shaken inside.
To have the capability to fight with two experts at the Peak of the Innate at such an age was almost terrifying.
Even within Lanqu County City, this would definitely be considered top-tier genius.
When Jing Yan saw Mu Yunfei continuously looking at him, he gave her a slight smile.
For some reason, Mu Yunfei’s beautiful face flushed slightly, and her heart began thumping wildly.
“Miss Yunfei, you might not be aware, but this guy was causing trouble in the workshop area.
As the manager there, it’s naturally my duty to apprehend him,” explained Steward Wan.
He had to explain!
Mu Yunfei may not be anything special, but her father’s identity was indeed somewhat frightening.
Mu Yunfei’s father, Mu Liantian, was the Lord Chief of Prince Manor.
And this Lanqu Square Market was directly overseen by none other than the Lord Chief Mu Liantian himself.
The status of the Chief Manager of the Prince Manor was incredibly high.
Just like the Chief Manager of the City Lord Mansion in Donglin City, even the Clan Leaders of the city’s largest families would be extremely respectful when meeting him.
Not only was the position prestigious, but the personal strength required to become the Chief Manager of Prince Manor was also absolutely formidable.
It was precisely for this reason that both Steward Wan and Deacon Fang were so respectful towards Mu Yunfei.
“But what I heard seems different from what you’re saying.
Where is the vendor?” asked Mu Yunfei, casting a glance at Steward Wan.
“It seems he ran away!” added Jing Yan from the side, frowning.
He searched through the crowd with his gaze and did not see the vendor called Lao Wu.
These rascals were indeed slippery; as soon as they saw things going south, they would immediately take off.
Jing Yan had neglected this detail amongst the chaotic multitude; with so many people around and Lao Wu sneaking away, it was indeed hard to notice without paying attention.
“Miss Yunfei, let’s just drop it, I didn’t suffer any loss anyway,” said Jing Yan, shaking his head.
Not being able to find Lao Wu meant losing direct evidence.
Jing Yan didn’t want to waste too much time there.
As for people like Steward Wan, if they fell into his hands in the future, he would deal with them directly.
“Steward Wan, I won’t mention this incident to my father, but you should be more careful in the future!” said Mu Yunfei, seeing that Jing Yan didn’t want to pursue it further.
“Miss Yunfei, I’ll definitely be careful, definitely!” Steward Wan nodded in agreement eagerly.
His biggest fear was that Mu Yunfei would say something to her father, Mu Liantian, and who knew, his position as the manager of the workshop area might be taken away.
Now that he heard Mu Yunfei’s words, he suddenly felt a weight lifted off his chest.
“Ziqi, let’s leave this place for now!” Mu Yunfei then addressed Jing Ziqi.
The place was in disarray, with all kinds of people around, not suitable for conversation.
“Okay,” replied Jing Ziqi right away.
After leaving the workshop area, Jing Ziqi asked Mu Yunfei, “Yunfei, what exactly is your status?
Steward Wan seemed really afraid of you.
Even our academy’s Deacon Fang didn’t dare to say much.”
“It’s really nothing much; my father is Mu Liantian, the Chief Manager of the Prince Manor,” replied Mu Yunfei with a smile upon hearing Jing Ziqi’s question.
She was not one to show off, so she hardly ever mentioned her status voluntarily, not even to Jing Ziqi.
“Miss Yunfei, I really must thank you for your help today,” said Jing Yan, feeling a slight tremor in his heart upon hearing Yunfei disclose her own identity.
He, of course, knew what it meant to be the Chief Manager of the Prince Manor.
To think that this female warrior, who was on good terms with Jing Ziqi, was actually the daughter of the Chief Manager of the Prince Manor.
“I didn’t really help with anything, I mean, you wouldn’t be scared of Steward Wan and the others even if I hadn’t shown up, would you?” Mu Yunfei laughed and looked at Jing Yan, “Ziqi, this gentleman and you are from the same family, right?
You both share the Jing surname.”
“Yes, we are both Jing Family Disciples from Donglin City,” Jing Ziqi managed to reply after regaining composure from her initial shock and took a deep breath.
Mu Yunfei couldn’t help but take another glance at Jing Yan.
She did not know much about the Jing Family of Donglin City, but such a small city like Donglin didn’t mean much.
That a family like this could produce a martial arts genius like Jing Yan was truly astonishing.
“Jing Yan, you’ll have to treat Yunfei to a meal for this!” Jing Ziqi joked, looking at Jing Yan.
“Of course,” Jing Yan nodded in agreement.
“Not today, though, I have to rush home.
My mother’s health has worsened again,” said Mu Yunfei, her tone tinged with sadness.
“What’s wrong with your mother?” Jing Ziqi asked subconsciously.
“My mother’s Fog Vortex has had some issues for a long time.
My father, despite trying everything, has been unable to cure her.
The Pill Masters from the Alchemist Association say that my mother might…” Mu Yunfei’s eyes flickered with the glint of tears, trying to hide her emotions, but unable to do so.
“The Fog Vortex has a problem?” Jing Yan frowned slightly.
A Fog Vortex forms in a martial artist’s abdomen only when advancing to the Innate Realm.
The martial artist’s Primordial Energy is almost entirely stored within the Fog Vortex.
Naturally, the Fog Vortex is one of the most important things to a martial artist.
If there’s a problem with the Fog Vortex, then the martial artist’s life is definitely in grave danger.
For ordinary people, various illnesses may plague them.
But for martial artists, who have vigorous qi and blood, it is almost impossible to become sick.
Even lower-strength martial artists may fall ill, but there are many medicines in this world that can easily cure these illnesses.
For warriors in the Innate Realm, common illnesses are even less likely to affect them.
However, a martial artist’s body can also encounter problems, such as being poisoned, or issues with the Fog Vortex or Martial Arts Meridians among others.
And when a warrior of the Innate Realm has a problem with their body, it is absolutely a major issue.
“Yes, my mother is also a martial artist at the Innate Peak Realm.
Over a decade ago, she was preparing to advance to the Dao Spirit Realm, but something went wrong with that breakthrough.
Her Fog Vortex became extremely unstable.
The Fog Vortex could burst at any moment, and once that happens…” Mu Yunfei’s voice grew lower and lower until she could no longer speak.
However, Jing Yan had understood.
If the Fog Vortex were to burst, then Mu Yunfei’s mother’s life would unquestionably be lost.
An unstable Fog Vortex means being unable to control one’s own Primordial Energy.
If the Fog Vortex bursts and the Primordial Energy surges out, then the entire physical body could turn into mush.
“Yunfei, don’t worry too much, there must be a way.
The Alchemist Association has so many powerful Pill Masters, there must be a solution,” Jing Ziqi said, trying to be comforting.
“Okay!” Mu Yunfei nodded.
She knew that Jing Ziqi’s words were meant to comfort her.
If the Pill Masters had a way, the problem would have been resolved long ago, given the status of her father, even the best Pill Masters of the Alchemist Association would show some courtesy.
Yet, more than a decade had passed, and not a single Pill Master had dared to say they could solve the problem her mother faced.
At most, they used some elixirs to temporarily suppress the Fog Vortex.
Moreover, her mother couldn’t use any Primordial Energy, as even a small amount could potentially cause the Fog Vortex to explode.
The atmosphere turned somewhat heavy for a while.
“Ziqi, I should go back,” Mu Yunfei said her goodbyes to them.
Jing Yan’s mind whirled with the knowledge of the Qiankun Pill Path, and an idea suddenly dawned on him about a kind of elixir, the Heavenly Eye Pill, which had a peculiar healing effect on Fog Vortex injuries.
“Mr.
Jing Yan, see you!” Mu Yunfei turned to leave.
“Miss Yunfei, wait a moment,” Jing Yan called out to Mu Yunfei.
The moment Mu Yunfei mentioned the predicament her mother faced with an unstable Fog Vortex, Jing Yan, almost subconsciously, recalled a solution.
The Heavenly Eye Pill was only a Second-level Elixir, which Jing Yan might almost be able to refine.
Jing Yan was a Second-level Little Pill King; the reason he said he might refine the Heavenly Eye Pill was that he had not tried to make it before.
“Hmm?” Mu Yunfei turned back to look at Jing Yan.
“I was wondering if I might see your mother; maybe I have a way to cure her,” Jing Yan said thoughtfully.
He wasn’t entirely sure just yet, so he had to temper his words.
However, Jing Yan was confident that even if the Heavenly Eye Pill couldn’t fully cure Mu Yunfei’s mother, it would definitely have some effect.
“What…what did you say?” Mu Yunfei was slightly taken aback.
She wondered if she had heard wrong.
The Alchemist Association had so many strong Pill Masters, all at a loss.
Yet Jing Yan was saying that he might have a way?
Jing Ziqi also looked at Jing Yan with surprise.
“Miss Yunfei, you might not fully trust me, but I assure you I have no ill intentions, so perhaps you could just trust me this once,” Jing Yan said with a smile.
That was all he could say.
If Mu Yunfei completely mistrusted him, then there was nothing he could do.
He just thought Mu Yunfei had a good character and had helped him out at the stall area, not to mention she was Jing Ziqi’s friend, so he wanted to offer more than a few words of help.
Of course, if he really could help Mu Yunfei’s mother, that would be hugely beneficial to Jing Yan as well.
Mu Yunfei’s father was the Lord Chief of the Prince Manor, so if he could treat the Lord Chief’s wife, the Lord Chief would owe him a great debt of favor.
Mu Yunfei stared at Jing Yan in a daze.
Had she not just witnessed Jing Yan’s terrifying strength, Mu Yunfei would certainly have thought him to be a young man prone to making empty boasts.
