Urban Invincible Medical Divine
Chapter 299: Woke Up
As the sky began to lighten, Liu Wentian woke up.
Just as he was about to get out of bed, his body moved slightly, and Sheng Qianmei, nestled in his arms, instinctively snuggled closer. Just as he was about to move her to his side, Sheng Qianmei opened her sleepy eyes.
Just awakened, her gaze was filled with confusion and silliness, completely lacking her usual aloof demeanor. It was only in front of the man she loved that she would revert to a little girl.
"Liu Wentian, where are you going?" Sheng Qianmei asked, puzzled.
"Nowhere, just to the balcony to practice. You continue sleeping, I'll go down soon to bring you up some breakfast," Liu Wentian said with a smile.
"Oh."
Hearing that he was going to practice, Sheng Qianmei lost interest, nodded her cute head, and fell back asleep. After all, she had been tormented enough by this rascal last night.
Liu Wentian sat cross-legged on the balcony, operating the "Heaven and Earth Demons Gods Technique" at the Second Layer. The sun had just risen, bringing forth an amethyst glow; it was the perfect condition for cultivation.
The Second Layer of the "Heaven and Earth Demons Gods Technique" was the Qi Cultivation Chapter, and Liu Wentian was currently at the Entry-level Rank of Qi Cultivation Chapter, which was equivalent to the King Martial Early Stage.
There were three layers in the "Heaven and Earth Demons Gods Technique" that Liu Wentian understood, but stepping into the Third Layer seemed to be an aspiration for a distant future.
The Third Layer was known as the Body Refinement Chapter, and just the name alone was enough to get Liu Wentian's blood boiling, filled with longing.
In his dreams, Sheng Tianzhan reached the Body Refinement Chapter, able to Walk on Wind and kill with his breath, causing mountains to crumble and the earth to split with mere gestures, no different from a deity.
In the dream realm, this state was also known as an Earthbound Immortal!!
At the King Martial Realm, one could typically live to around a hundred, at most two hundred years old; however, if one cultivated to the Body Refinement Chapter, one could have a lifespan of 500 years!!
For the common man, such an existence was indeed no different from an Immortal!!
However, this realm was still far too out of reach for Liu Wentian as presently in this era, whether such a powerful being existed was questionable.
As of now, among the people Liu Wentian had encountered, the strongest was the Saint King of Blood Night, the leader of the country's strongest organization, and although Liu Wentian was unclear as to his exact realm, if his guess was correct, at most, he was at the Charm Later Stage.
Liu Wentian longed for the day when he would step into the Third Layer, and he had ample confidence in this; all he needed was enough time.
However, he didn't have much time now, as facing families like the Xiang Family and Qi Family with his current King Martial Early Stage realm was still quite difficult.
Thus, he wanted to visit the herbal medicine market to see if he might find any rare items that could be used to refine some special Spiritual Medicines.
After having breakfast downstairs and bringing a portion up for Sheng Qianmei, Liu Wentian set out towards the Jintang district herbal medicine market, the largest in Guangyang City.
Arriving at the herbal medicine market around ten in the morning, besides numerous large and small herbal medicine shops, there were also quite a few farmer-like people hawking their wares. Some of these herbal medicines were cultivated by them, others were harvested from the mountains.
Regarding those herbal medicine shops, Liu Wentian did not believe they contained what he was looking for, so he mainly examined the herbal medicines offered for sale by these medicine farmers.
However, after a meticulous walk around, spending nearly an hour, he did not see any of the herbs he needed.
Although he understood that encountering such rare herbal medicines was highly unlikely, Liu Wentian couldn't help but feel a bit down. It looked like he could only ask the Wang Family and Elder Gu for help now.
The Wang Family had extensive business interests, and Elder Gu was a nationally recognized traditional medicine expert. It was much easier for them to find certain herbs than for him.
Just as Liu Wentian was preparing to leave, he saw a petite girl with slightly dark skin, carrying a huge basket on her back, disproportionate to her body size, walking towards him.
Liu Wentian's eyes lit up, fixated on a red, root-like herbal medicine in the basket.
He quickly approached, blocking the girl's path, and said with a smile, "Little sister, are you here to sell herbal medicines? May I take a look at the herbal medicine in your basket?"
The girl, who seemed as if an unsuspecting sparrow had accidentally flown into a thicket of Congliu, seemed tense and wary, suddenly startled by a man appearing in her path.
Upon a closer look, seeing that the young man was evidently wearing expensive clothes and was also very handsome, with a noble nose and an indescribable charm in his eyes, she instinctively took a step back.
Before entering the city, her parents had warned her never to get cheated by anyone, especially not by handsome men, who were the most deceptive!!
The girl quickly shook her head, cautious, and said, "I'm not selling! Please, just go away!!"
Liu Wentian was taken aback, not selling? Then what was she doing here with a heap of herbal medicines?
Seeing the girl's wary gaze fixed on him, Liu Wentian smiled wryly. Was this what guarding against thieves was like?
"Little sister, I think you might have misunderstood something. I have no other intentions; I'm just interested in one of the herbs in your basket. Let me take a look. If it's a herb I need, I'll definitely offer you a satisfactory price. What do you think?" Liu Wentian tried to make his smile appear more congenial.
However, the girl, seeing the unsettling smile on the man's face, became even more tense, "I won't sell it to you! I'm selling it to Changhe Hall! Now leave, just go!"
After saying this, before Liu Wentian could leave, she ran off as if fleeing for her life, as if Liu Wentian was about to kidnap her.
Liu Wentian stood speechless, especially since many of the neighboring medicine farmers were now looking at him coldly, as if he was some creepy stranger attempting to harass the little girl.
