Douluo Continent: From Seven Treasure Glazed Tile to Crescent Moon's Solemnity

Chapter 201 A Long Year

And after Ning Feiliu left Heaven Dou City...

Ye Lingling took the key and arrived at the clinic that had been closed for a long time.

After Ning Feiliu had completed his pharmacological studies, he became less interested in the clinic.

However, before his true identity was fully exposed, he would still come to run the clinic in the afternoons while completing the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena mission.

However, after Ning Feiliu chose to stop hiding and completely exposed her identity that day, the clinic rarely opened.

Then, for almost a month, the store remained completely closed.

Ye Lingling has hardly come over since Ning Feiliu is not here.

The clinic, which had initially seemed bustling with people, now appeared somewhat deserted in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Ye Lingling walked over, but just then, an old lady suddenly appeared in front of her.

It was... the first patient Ning Feiliu encountered when she opened her clinic, the old lady who was bitten and poisoned by the Black Water Serpent.

However, Ye Lingling didn't remember her.

The old lady remembered Ye Lingling and said with a smile, "Miss Ye...it's been a long time! By the way, how has Dr. Ning been lately? I haven't seen him open his clinic in ages..."

Ye Lingling was silent for a moment before saying, "He has to go out for a while..."

"Has Dr. Ning left?" The old lady seemed quite disappointed, but she quickly added, "Well, Dr. Ning's medical skills are so good, he'll be promoted sooner or later..."

"It's not like that..." Ye Lingling shook her head, but then she hesitated, because Ning Feiliu also wanted to continue moving forward.

He always wanted to become a stronger Soul Master.

However, the old lady misunderstood and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Miss Ye, I don't think Dr. Ning is wrong... but Dr. Ning is right to do so. After all, he can't stay here as a lowly doctor forever."

She said with some emotion, "Actually, Dr. Ning has been very kind to us ordinary people who are nothing. This is the first time I have met such an approachable Soul Master. I am over fifty years old and have seen many patients. Dr. Ning may seem very serious, but he has never discriminated or shown prejudice when treating patients."

"He treats everyone the same, whether they are ordinary people like us or soul masters, so Doctor Ning is a truly good person."

She misunderstood; Ning Feiliu did not treat everyone equally, and there was no discrimination or prejudice involved.

He just hadn't encountered anyone who could make Ning Feiliu change his attitude. If a Title Douluo came to him, he would definitely be a little nicer.

The most powerful people who usually come to the clinic are Soul Saints, whom even Ye Lingling's father couldn't cure.

He's just a Soul Saint, nothing compared to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

In addition, Ning Feiliu is a transmigrator. To be honest, after merging with the original owner's soul, he only has some of the concepts of equality that transmigrators have.

However, Ning Feiliu always adhered to the idea that "people are divided into different classes".

It's not about being divided into three, six, and nine classes, but rather three, three, and nine classes. Apart from those at the very top of the pyramid, everyone else is the same.

The value of a Title Douluo is higher than that of someone below the Title Douluo level.

Ning Feiliu also embraced egoism, making no secret of the fact that everything he did was for himself, for his ultimate dream of ascending to godhood and finally achieving immortality and enjoying the future.

Serving the country and its people? He can't do that.

At most, they won't act like a scoundrel who harms others for personal gain or applies double standards.

However, in the eyes of the poor who only look at appearances and not inner qualities, everyone is judged by their actions, not their intentions.

No matter how dark or selfish he may be, as long as what he does benefits ordinary people like them, then he is a great person.

Ye Lingling thought so too, and said, "Yes, Fei Liu is indeed a very good person."

"But we're still very reluctant to part with Dr. Ning. Although thanks to Dr. Ning's teachings, very few people here get sick," the old lady sighed and said, "there are still some injuries and illnesses. But... well, it's a good thing that Dr. Ning has his own pursuits."

Upon hearing the old lady's words, Ye Lingling immediately said, "Fei Liu will come back. Before he returned, he gave me his clinic... so this clinic will continue to operate. However, please forgive me, my medical skills may not be as good as Fei Liu's."

She had always planned to... just like before, to run her clinic and practice the medical skills Ning Feiliu had taught her, improving her skills through practice.

Even so, the old lady was quite surprised to hear Ye Lingling's words.

Overwhelmed with joy, she exclaimed excitedly, "Miss Ye, this is wonderful... the clinic will be open as usual, right?"

"Yes, just like before, the rules remain the same," Ye Lingling said immediately.

"Thank you so much, Miss Ye, and... thank you, Dr. Ning. I'll go back and tell everyone right away." The old lady left excitedly.

Ye Lingling then used the key to open the door of the clinic.

The clinic hadn't opened its doors for a month. Although it wasn't exactly like a place that had been sealed off for a long time, a thin layer of dust had accumulated on the floor.

Ye Lingling stroked the place where she had once practiced and learned medical skills with Ning Feiliu, and soon she walked into the backyard.

Ning Feiliu said that he left all the experimental equipment, along with the books and furniture there, to Ye Lingling.

However, if Ye Lingling doesn't like it, she can throw it away and buy another one.

However, when Ye Lingling walked into the backyard, into Ning Feiliu's laboratory filled with alchemy and chemical experimental equipment, she picked up a flask and seemed to be able to feel that Ning Feiliu had spent hundreds of days and nights conducting complex experiments with it.

She put down the flask and went into Ning Feiliu's bedroom on the other side.

The desk, bed, and even the pillows and sheets are still here, and they look like they've been organized and are quite tidy.

However, even though Ye Lingling was looking at the neatly made bed sheets, she still found a wrinkle.

She sat on the bed, seemingly able to feel the warmth of the place where Ning Feiliu had once rested.

Ye Lingling took off her shoes and put her legs on the bed. Then she lay down with her hands flat in front of her lower abdomen. Her long hair, like a waterfall, spread out and looked like a flower on the pillow.

"Let me be willful this once... let me fantasize a little..." Ye Lingling closed her eyes and thought to herself.

As a Soul Master, she rarely fell asleep here and even had a beautiful dream that was hard to talk about.

……

After that, the clinic located in the ordinary civilian area of ​​Tiandou City reopened.

However, the attending physician has changed. It is no longer the "Little Ning Doctor" who is talked about by the common people, but the equally skillful "Miss Ye".

Just like how "Dr. Xiao Ning" was popular back then because of his handsome face and superb medical skills, especially among young women.

Because of her stunning beauty, which even a veil couldn't conceal, and her superb medical skills, Miss Ye became the dream girl of many young men.

However, Miss Ye is even more unattainable than Doctor Xiao Ning, and there are also some arrogant fools who want to get close to her, like toads lusting after swans.

However, this madman was dealt with terribly by Miss Ye's personal attendants.

Without Ning Feiliu's protection, Ye Lingling also brought her family's powerful servants with her after Hu Da's kidnapping incident.

Moreover, she also has the Sun Box left to her by Ning Feiliu, which allows her to activate the soul skill attached to the soul tool at any time—Sun Guardian.

This can be considered as having a certain ability to protect oneself.

However, Ye Lingling had never tried to activate this soul skill before, so she had no idea how powerful the effect of this additional soul skill was.

Meanwhile, after consuming the Narcissus Jade Bone and Muscle Bone given to her by Ning Feiliu, and practicing the Moon Essence Breathing Technique, her strength also increased by leaps and bounds.

Then, a year after Ning Feiliu went out to train, Ye Lingling broke through to the Soul Master realm, becoming the youngest support-type Soul Master to break through to the Soul Master realm in Douluo Continent.

Her medical skills also improved rapidly during the year she helped people with their illnesses.

After all, practice makes perfect.

Even after Ning Feiliu left, the legend of him in the Heaven Dou Arena did not cease to circulate, despite his disappearance.

It's just that the waning moon's solemnity over Asia and Africa has changed to the waning moon's solemnity over Ningfeiliu.

Ning from the Ning family, and Liu from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

While the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was making a big fuss about it, the Moon Emperor Team was disbanded. Although Ning Feiliu was gone, Yu Tianxin then announced her withdrawal from the team.

Because he was leaving Heaven Dou City to enroll in Thunder Academy.

As a result, the team of only six people was unable to participate in the battle, and Ye Lingling also withdrew from the competition to focus on cultivation and running the medical clinic.

However, many changes have occurred within Tiandou City. First, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School... began selling many kinds of special potions.

For example, there is an eye drop called "Eagle Vision," which can greatly improve farsightedness and observation skills in a short period of time.

A spiritual alchemical potion that can quickly eliminate mental distress and negative effects—the "Purification Potion".

The main effect of this alchemical potion is to quickly heal physical injuries and restore physical strength—the "Potion of Life".

The alchemical potion that increases one's speed and reaction speed for an extremely short time—the "Swiftness Potion."

However, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School did not sell all the alchemical potions that Ning Feiliu gave them. They certainly would not sell potions that could help soul masters cultivate and break through, such as upgrade potions and soul power recovery potions.

Even potions with very special effects, such as Clarity Potion and Concealment Potion, were not sold.

Even so, they were still driven crazy by Tian Dou City.

After all, these potions can quickly heal wounds, increase speed, improve eyesight and reconnaissance capabilities... all of which can greatly enhance combat effectiveness.

In fact, the Heavenly Battle Arena even introduced a special rule for this purpose.

That is, the use of martial spirits and medicines or weapons other than the soul master's body is prohibited. This order even prohibits martial spirits other than martial spirits, but this is an undeserved disaster.

However, this is very fair, because if it weren't prohibited, the Soul Battle would become an item battle.

Whoever possesses the alchemical potions sold by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will have a higher chance of winning.

This is absolutely outrageous.

This is undoubtedly a good thing.

However, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School still made a fortune, with alchemy potions increasing their income by about 20%.

Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is already very wealthy, who would complain about having too much money?

As for Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan...

Because of Ning Feiliu's words, Dugu Bo worked hard to plant trees, and the Spirit Blossom Tree bloomed normally half a year ago.

He obtained many Spirit Blossom seeds and transformed into a diligent gardener in Sunset Forest, engaging in extensive afforestation.

However, it also unexpectedly allowed several ordinary soul masters in Tiandou City to see the spirits of their recently deceased relatives and friends through the incomplete Spirit Blossom Flower that Dugu Bo had accidentally overlooked.

Because of this, a strange yet intriguing legend began to circulate in Tiandou City.

In the Sunset Forest grows a unique flower of the underworld—the Spirit Blossom. As long as mortals pass through it and then enter the River of Vili, they can see the souls of their deceased relatives.

This legend did not initially spread, and many people who heard it simply regarded it as a supernatural tale.

But it's like a seed; given the chance, it will eventually grow into a towering tree...

Dugu Yan continued her cultivation. The immortal herbs allowed her talent to grow rapidly. She also had the Moon Essence Breathing Technique and began to learn the Poison Core Technique that Ning Feiliu had mentioned.

Over the course of a year, her cultivation level improved rapidly, and she has now reached level 48 in soul power, approaching the level of a Soul King.

With this talent, he will probably break through to Soul King at the age of sixteen, and it is not impossible for him to even break through to Soul Emperor at the age of twenty-five!

Such talent moved many people in Tiandou City.

Dugu Yan rarely revealed his strength, and had never even been to the Heavenly Battle Arena.

If it weren't for the fact that she joined the Heaven Dou Royal Academy team, which will be participating in this year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Tournament, probably no one would know her current cultivation level and combat strength.

Aside from that, her daily routine consisted of either cultivating and practicing at the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, helping her grandfather Dugu Bo plant Spirit Blossom Trees in the Sunset Forest, and occasionally visiting the clinic that Ye Lingling was currently running to chat with her.

But besides these...

She is still waiting for Ning Feiliu to come back.

She was also very worried. Why hadn't Ning Feiliu returned yet? Had something happened to him outside?

Could something have happened to him?

This thought lingered in her mind day and night.

At the same time, she was also comforting herself.

Fei Liu is so strong, she'll be fine...

The Douluo Continent has been at peace for many years now, so Ning Feiliu is not in any danger.

How could something happen to someone as smart as Fei Liu...?

……

However, as time went by, a year passed, and Ning Feiliu did not return.

Suddenly, Dugu Yan panicked. She even considered begging her grandfather, Dugu Bo, to leave Tiandou City with her to search for Ning Feiliu's whereabouts.

Just as Dugu Bo was hesitating about whether to agree to Dugu Yan's request to go out with her to find Ning Feiliu...

That night, while Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan were practicing the Moon Essence Breathing Technique at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well...

Suddenly, the poison barrier outside the Yin-Yang Well stirred!

Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan were immediately jolted awake from their cultivation state, and then heard a familiar voice that they hadn't heard in a long time.

"Teacher, Sister Yan, I'm back."

They immediately looked towards the figure not far away, a figure that was much taller but whose build resembled that of the boy from a year ago.

Ning Feiliu looked at them with a smile, his handsome face appearing like a god descending to earth under the moonlight...

"You brat!"

"Phiru!—"

Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan immediately smiled with delight.
