Chapter 3: Chapter 3 Looking Down on the Mundane World
The young man's expression suddenly changed, and his hand quickly reached for his waist. However, he was stopped by a look from the old man. Although he felt that the young man was not ordinary, he didn't sense any malicious intent from him. Moreover, he had quite a bit of confidence in himself. Not just anyone could harm him.
"Are you injured?"
The first sentence Qin Xuan said as he walked over stunned both of them. Especially the young man, whose face couldn't help but turn gloomy.
Even with the old man's restraint, he still suppressed his anger and said, "Watch your words. Don't you know what respecting the old and caring for the young means?"
Respecting the old and caring for the young?
Qin Xuan looked at the young man with a bit of amusement and ignored him.
Talking about respecting the old in front of the Green Emperor of the Immortal Realm? Those old fellows who had cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years wouldn't dare to mention the word "respect" in front of him, the Green Emperor.
"How did you know?" Instead, the old man was shocked in his heart and looked at Qin Xuan in disbelief.
He knew his own injury well. Even if he went to all the provincial hospitals, they couldn't find it out. It was one of his old friends who detected it using ancient Chinese medicine techniques. But this young man in front of him could tell it at a glance?
The old man still had a good memory. He was certain that he was meeting this young man for the first time.
"I could tell," Qin Xuan said with a faint smile, casually. "I can help you heal your injury."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Xuan stretched out his hand towards the old man, wanting to examine him.
"How dare you!"
The young man's expression immediately changed. The old man beside him was of such an important status that no accidents were allowed at all. What's more, this young man in front of them was extremely suspicious. So he immediately took action to stop Qin Xuan.
"Get lost!"
Qin Xuan's eyes paused slightly. He coldly glanced at the young man and slightly shook the spiritual power within his body.
In an instant, the young man felt as if his hand had hit an iron plate. A terrifying counter-shock force made him take several steps back. The strength he had cultivated during his years in the military seemed to disappear all of a sudden.
"Xiao Yi!" The old man spoke up. A glint flashed in his eyes, and he stopped the young man.
Xiao Yi's face was extremely ugly. The intense pain in his hand made his arm tremble. Only the old man knew clearly that this young man in front of them was no ordinary person and was not someone Xiao Yi could deal with.
Could this young man be a martial artist?
The old man was extremely surprised. Judging by Qin Xuan's age, he was only about seventeen years old. He looked young and tender, yet he could easily send Xiao Yi flying with just a shake.
"I'm afraid this young man is almost able to cultivate internal energy, right?" The old man couldn't help but be shocked in his heart. To be able to cultivate internal energy at such a young age, could this young man be a genius from a certain noble family in Jing Shui City?
Qin Xuan continued to stretch his hand towards the old man's arm, slowly lifted his arm, and placed it on the meridians of his wrist. His actions seemed to be filled with an undeniable dominance. He didn't care whether the old man was willing or not.
If the Green Emperor wanted to kill someone, no one could stop him. And if he wanted to save someone, how could others prevent him?
This was the dominance Qin Xuan had developed over tens of thousands of years. How could it be easily changed?
The spiritual power followed the meridians to explore for a while. After finding the root of the old man's hidden injury, he couldn't help but smile faintly.
Although this old man was also a cultivator, the sense of Qi in his body was really too weak. Compared with the spiritual power in Qin Xuan's body, it was like the difference between a stream and a river.
"Several of your meridians are damaged, which leads to blocked Qi flow and often causes a stabbing pain. Even because of the damaged meridians, the Qi and blood in your kidneys are not in harmony. Over the years, it has accumulated and caused illness," Qin Xuan said faintly. He slightly moved his spiritual power to nourish those damaged meridians and said, "I've already helped you deal with it simply. I'll give you a prescription. Get the medicine for me, and I can refine some pills for you to make your internal injuries as good as new."
"What?"
The old man was extremely shocked in his heart. What this young man said was almost the same as what his old friend had said. The only difference was that this young man in front of him was confident that he could cure it, while his old friend could only prescribe medicine to temporarily relieve the pain. This was the difference between treating the symptoms and the root cause. Even with the old man's status, he couldn't help but find it hard to believe.
"Is what you said true?" "Do you think I'm lying to you?" Qin Xuan didn't answer but asked instead, as if he had heard the funniest joke.
The old man was stunned by Qin Xuan's tone for a moment. Looking at this young man who was not old but had such an arrogant tone. However, Qin Xuan's performance made him somewhat convinced, especially the unfathomable internal energy that had just probed into his body.
Was this young man actually an internal energy master?
Taking a deep breath of the cool night air, the old man took out an old pen on his chest and said in an aged voice, "Xiao Yi, get some paper!"
"Elder Mo, he's very likely a fraud. Don't believe him..." Xiao Yi was extremely anxious and was about to take out his gun from his waist.
Qin Xuan noticed it and was a little surprised. The person beside this old man was even equipped with a gun? It seemed that the old man's identity was really extraordinary. But so what?
He seemed to turn a blind eye and instead showed a smile. Wouldn't such a person to ask for information be better?
"I told you to get paper!" Elder Mo turned around. Seeing Xiao Yi's actions, he couldn't help but get angry. "Don't be disrespectful to this gentleman."
Although Xiao Yi was reluctant, he immediately turned around and quickly walked towards the Audi outside the lake.
Elder Mo stared at Qin Xuan. No matter how young this young man was, the internal energy that had just probed into his body was so profound. For a moment, it stirred up a storm in his heart. With a hint of awe in his tone, he asked, "May I ask your name, sir?"
"Qin Xuan!"
Elder Mo thought for a while but found that there was no Qin family in Jing Shui City. He couldn't help but feel a bit puzzled.
Soon, Xiao Yi brought back the paper. Qin Xuan wrote down some common Chinese herbal medicines according to his memory. Although they were just ordinary herbs, it wouldn't be difficult to heal the old man's internal injuries after he refined them.
"Contact me again after you get the herbs," Qin Xuan thought for a while and then wrote down his mobile phone number.
He still had some questions to ask the old man so that he could judge what level his strength was among the cultivators on Earth. Then Qin Xuan planned to leave.
"There are no vehicles outside at this time. How about I give you a ride, sir?" A glint flashed in Elder Mo's eyes as he said.
"Alright!"
Qin Xuan accepted it calmly and sat in the old man's original seat with composure.
After Qin Xuan left, Elder Mo sat in the car, looking at Qin Xuan's young and tender back, and couldn't say a word for a long time. This young man was terrifyingly young yet was already a martial artist with internal energy. And he wasn't from a noble family in Jing Shui City.
Who on earth was he?
"Elder Mo, with your status, how could you believe such a person of unknown origin?" Xiao Yi was very puzzled. He knew Elder Mo's identity well. He was a person who could make an entire province tremble with just a stomp. Yet he treated this young man like this, even personally sending him home. Even the mayor of a city wasn't worthy of such treatment from Elder Mo.
Elder Mo looked at the ordinary and even a bit old residential building in front of him. His aged eyes quietly looked at Xiao Yi and sighed, "I didn't expect that after being away from Jing Shui City for ten years, there would be such a person here. Xiao Yi, you should remember one sentence."
"Don't underestimate the water in a small pond. There may be a hidden dragon in the shallows."
