Goddess Painting

Night has fallen on Tian Shu Peak.

Qin Feng stood in front of the bronze mirror, looked at the familiar face in the mirror, and shook his head.

If we go like this, we might not even get close to the Li family's gate before being intercepted by the Lin family's spies.

"The magic pen must be used, and people must be saved, but one cannot use one's own identity."

Qin Feng was well aware of his current situation.

Eight-shot superior quality?

In the eyes of Lin Zhengnan and Wang Tianyi, he was a threat that had not yet grown up.

If they find out that he has left the clan or even made connections with the Li family, these two will definitely stop at nothing to nip him in the bud.

"Although the Li family is a wealthy family, they believe in making money through harmony in business. They would never fight to the death with the Lin family, which is at the height of its power, for the sake of a down-on-his-luck disciple like me."

"But what if it were... a nameless, wandering cultivator?"

The Li family was in a state of extreme anxiety, clinging to even the smallest straw, so they had no time to investigate the ancestors of a rogue cultivator.

Exactly!

Using this identity to sneak in, as long as I can clearly see Miss Li's appearance and remember her charm, this painting... will be completed!

Qin Feng informed Lin Wan'er, then slipped down Tian Shu Peak via a small path from the back mountain and headed straight for the black market on the outskirts of Qingyun Sect.

After some haggling.

Qin Feng reluctantly tossed out three mid-grade spirit stones, in exchange for a slightly moldy gray cloth robe and a tattered bamboo hat.

Despite its tattered state, it has the effect of concealing one's presence.

He wrapped it around his body and pressed down the brim of his hat.

The once spirited and talented young man was gone, replaced by a hunched-over, brooding wanderer.

"From now on, my name will be... Feng Qin."

Qin Feng lowered his voice, tried out that hoarse tone, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.

Concealing his presence, Su Qinghan watched Qin Feng, who had undergone a complete transformation, from a short distance away, his expression strange: "What's this kid up to?"

After confirming that Lin Yi had entered seclusion, Su Qinghan began to follow Qin Feng again, observing his every move, but she couldn't understand what this kid was trying to do by changing his clothes.

……

East of Qingyun City, at the Li residence.

Two white jade lions, each as tall as two people, sit at the entrance.

The eyeballs were actually inlaid with huge red agates, which emitted a chilling red light in the sunlight!

The vermilion gate was wide open, and the golden plaque above the gate that read "Miraculous Healing" seemed somewhat ironic at that moment.

Outside the door, a few people had already gathered.

There were doctors carrying medicine chests, Taoist priests holding banners, and even a few carrying tortoise shells—they were clearly itinerant charlatans.

They peered around, their eyes gleaming with greed for that "heavy money"!

The steward of the Li residence was a stern-faced middle-aged man. Standing on the steps, his gaze swept across the crowd below with lightning speed, and he said coldly:

"Gentlemen!"

"Take another look at the notice next to it!"

"My young lady's condition is unusual, and we have already consulted many renowned doctors! If you don't have genuine expertise or any secret, top-secret methods, you should go back as soon as possible and not waste each other's time!"

"If they go in and can't find anything wrong, losing face is a small matter, but delaying the young lady's treatment... Humph!"

With a cold snort, several charlatans who had been trying to take advantage of the situation shrank back and slunk away from the crowd.

Then, the butler waved his hand, and several servants stepped forward to inquire and register one by one.

Soon, a servant came to Qin Feng with a notebook, looked the strange man, who was wrapped up tightly, up and down, and a hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes:

"Name? Who is your teacher? Have you ever cured this kind of strange disease before?"

Qin Feng slightly raised his head, his voice hoarse and flat through the black veil:

"A rogue cultivator, diligent in his work."

"Without a sect or school, without a teacher or lineage."

"In my early years, I traveled to wild and untamed lands and came into contact with some ancient spiritual witchcraft and spells. I have some experience with this kind of coma."

He paused, his tone carrying an air of profound mystery:

"As for the case... it involves secrets of the underworld, so I can't go into details. But since you're here, you might as well give it a try."

Soul-binding spells?

The servant's hand trembled, and he glanced at Qin Feng with some surprise.

This is the most unorthodox of all unorthodox methods!

Normally, someone like that would have been thrown out long ago, but now that the young lady is unconscious, maybe she's been possessed by an evil spirit?

The servant dared not be negligent. After recording the details truthfully, he quickly ran to the steward and whispered a few words in his ear.

The butler took the booklet, his brows furrowed, and stared at Qin Feng from a distance for a long while.

I can't see through it!

This person had no aura whatsoever, just like an ordinary person, yet his calm and composed demeanor suggested he wasn't a fraudster.

"That's enough!"

The butler sighed inwardly, "Let's try anything, even if it's a long shot!"

He turned around and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture to the remaining people:

"Everyone, please come in with me."

"Please wait in the side hall for a moment. The head of the family will then lead you all to the young lady's boudoir."

"Let me make this clear from the start! Once inside the mansion, no noise or disturbances are permitted! No wandering around as you please! Otherwise, you will be punished according to family rules!"

Seeing Qin Feng disguised and enter the Li residence with the others, Su Qinghan's expression became even more strange.

This Qin Feng...

Have they come to treat Miss Li's illness?

Does he have medical skills?

Or is it just a charade?

Unfortunately, the Li residence also had a revealing array, so she couldn't get in. Otherwise, she would have insisted on going in to see what this kid was up to.

……

In the side hall, the tea had gone cold.

There were already five or six people sitting in the hall, and when they saw Qin Feng and the others enter, they all cast scrutinizing glances at them.

The atmosphere was subtle and oppressive.

We're both colleagues and enemies, and nobody talks to anyone else.

Qin Feng found the most inconspicuous corner to sit down, pulled his straw hat down, and pricked up his ears.

"Sigh... this money is hard to earn."

An elderly man with a long beard in the front row lowered his voice and said to the person next to him, "I heard that even Elder Liu from Baoshengtang came to see us yesterday!"

"Old Liu? That Liu Sanzhen, who's known as 'the one who can decide life and death with a single stroke'?"

"That's right! He was only inside for less than half an incense stick's time, and when he came out he was shaking his head, and he didn't even accept any payment!"

"hiss--!"

A collective gasp of astonishment rippled through the crowd.

"As expected of the Li family, they can even get Old Master Liu, a figure who's rarely seen, to come!"

"Of course! The Li family controls 60% of the Qingyun Sect's medicinal herb business. Who wouldn't give them some face? We're probably just here to join in the fun!"

Just as everyone was discussing it and many people were starting to back out.

suddenly!

A series of hurried footsteps and a commotion came from outside the side hall!

"Quickly! Please invite Young Master Bai in!"

Immediately afterwards, a figure dressed in a moon-white brocade robe strode into the hall, surrounded by several servants of the Li family.

This man was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with a handsome face, sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes. He was holding a folding fan in his hand, and the jade pendant hanging from his waist was dazzling and obviously not an ordinary item!

His noble air instantly made the group of quack doctors in the hall look like beggars!

When the people in the hall saw the newcomer, they were first stunned, and then as if they had springs under their butts, they all stood up with a "whoosh"!

Their faces were plastered with fawning smiles:

"This...this is Young Master Bai Ziyu?!"

"My God! He's a descendant of the White Bone Healer! That reclusive lineage known as the 'Healer's Lineage'?!"

"Even their own people have come out of the mountains?"

"It's said that Young Master Bai has mastered all the true skills and is undoubtedly the leading figure in medicine among the younger generation! The Li family has really gone all out this time!"

Bai Ziyu didn't even lift an eyelid in the face of everyone's flattery and fawning.

He walked straight to the head seat, sat down with an air of authority, opened his folding fan with a "snap," shook it lightly twice, and didn't even glance around the hall.

It's as if everyone sitting in this room is just air!

proud!

Arrogance to the core!

Qin Feng sat in the corner, coldly watching this scene through the black veil, his heart completely unmoved.

Whether his medical skills are high or not is unknown, but he certainly has a big ego.

Just then.

"The patriarch has arrived!"

The butler shouted.

A middle-aged man dressed in a purple and gold python robe strode into the hall.

He was tall and imposing, with a dignified face, but his bloodshot eyes and slightly graying temples betrayed his anxiety and exhaustion.

Li Qingtian, the head of the Li family!
