Peach Blossom Divine Medical God Chapter 1911 - 1905: Chen Tianmin Leaves

The item in question belonged to their Taoist Sect; naturally, Chen Yang could not simply claim it for himself.

They departed shortly after two in the afternoon, and by the time their return to Lihe Village occurred, the hour was already six in the evening.

A fiery red sunset painted the horizon, imbuing the sky with a stunning beauty.

"Little friend Chen Yang, I shall return to the temple first. I have been away for over two months, and I am unsure of the current state of affairs at home," Taoist Liu expressed his eagerness to depart as soon as they entered the village.

He also felt a pressing need to find a secure location for the Cultivation Technique he had acquired from Lion Tiger Mountain.

Although the portion he brought back from Lion Tiger Mountain this time was merely introductory-level, it was still a treasure coveted by many cultivators.

Securing it in a hidden place at the earliest opportunity was the most prudent course of action.

"Very well, I shall not see you off. I too have been absent for a considerable duration, and I have numerous matters that require my attention," Chen Yang responded.

"Mm, I depart now." Taoist Liu gave a nod, embraced the Cultivation Technique, and turned to leave.

However, his departure was halted as Chen Yang called him back after he had taken merely two steps.

"Oh, right, are you not taking it with you?" Chen Yang gestured towards the rear seat of the vehicle.

His attention was, of course, directed at the small tiger.

Taoist Liu paused for a moment before chuckling. "I would prefer to take it back, but it seems unwilling to accompany me."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang found himself at a loss for words.

This little tiger was proving to be exceptionally stubborn, as if it had already chosen him, resolutely insisting on staying by his side.

It no longer seemed to acknowledge the Daoist Command Token.

"My mother instructed me: I shall heed whoever receives the legacy and follow whoever inherits it. You have accepted the legacy, so naturally, I must follow you!" the little tiger reiterated, its stance unwavering.

"You see? Since it desires to remain with you, allow it to do so. This humble Taoist shall take his leave now." Taoist Liu appeared unconcerned by his sect's mountain-guardian spirit beast's attachment to Chen Yang; in fact, he seemed rather at ease, content to benefit from the situation.

Chen Yang felt a headache beginning to brew.

It was not that he was opposed to keeping the little tiger; rather, his residence was situated directly on the main street at the village's center. While it was manageable for now, with the tiger being small, problems would inevitably arise if it were to grow larger in the future.

The Green Cloud Taoist Temple, in contrast, occupied a secluded location, and during the nighttime hours, it was virtually deserted. Furthermore, the surrounding woods and thickets provided a much more suitable environment.

"Do not depart just yet, wait a moment." Observing Taoist Liu's renewed intention to leave, Chen Yang called out urgently, hoping to make a final attempt to persuade the little tiger to accompany Taoist Liu.

"Very well, very well, but make haste. I am growing weary of carrying this burden," Taoist Liu replied with a wry smile, yet he acquiesced.

Chen Yang gazed at the little tiger with a sense of helplessness and inquired, "Did you not just state it yourself? You shall heed whoever received the legacy?"

"I am now instructing you to accompany him. By that logic, you should also obey, correct?"

When Chen Yang posed this question, the little tiger initially appeared unresponsive; it pondered for several seconds before the implication dawned upon it.

"What you have said does indeed hold true; that is precisely how it functions," the little tiger affirmed.

Chen Yang beamed. "Then it is settled. Go with him now."

"Understood." Once the little tiger had reached its conclusion, it disembarked from the bicycle without a hint of hesitation.

This time, it was Taoist Liu who found himself in a predicament.

However, he uttered no further words, merely clutching the Cultivation Technique and departing with the little tiger.

After bidding farewell to Taoist Liu and the little tiger, Chen Yang made his way back to his own clinic.

Having been away for two and a half months, everything at home remained precisely as he had left it, with no discernible changes.

Only Brother Eagle and Little Yellow exhibited extreme excitement upon witnessing Chen Yang's return.

They engaged in prolonged yowling and screeching throughout the night, as if they had been administered powerful stimulants.

"It has been two months since I last saw you, and you two have certainly grown more robust. It appears your meals have been quite plentiful recently," Chen Yang remarked with a smile.

Chiu chiu.

Brother Eagle vocalized twice, appearing quite pleased with itself.

"While I was away, did anything of significance occur here?" Chen Yang inquired of Brother Eagle with a smile.

Brother Eagle shook its head, indicating that nothing had happened.

Upon hearing that all was well, Chen Yang felt a sense of relief. It was best if everything remained as it always was.

"Good, as long as nothing untoward has transpired. These are for you, to compensate for the time I have been absent," Chen Yang chuckled as he retrieved a handful of Body Tempering Pills from his pocket and divided them between Brother Eagle and Little Yellow.

Perhaps it had been an excessively long period since the last Body Tempering Pills were consumed, as both individuals, upon receiving them, devoured them with immense speed. Once the medicinal effects began to manifest, each returned to their respective private spaces to undergo the process of internal digestion and absorption. Observing that all was stable and in order at his residence, Chen Yang resolved to make a round of visits to his company and the village committee next. He intended to ascertain if any significant developments had transpired during his absence. However, just as he had finished his preparations and was on the verge of departing, Li Mengzi arrived. "Leader, the Master wishes to see you," Li Mengzi announced upon locating Chen Yang. Chen Yang's countenance registered a distinct surprise. "Your master is seeking me out? Did he not just leave my presence not long ago? What reason could there be for him to summon me again?" Li Mengzi simply shook his head in response. "I am uncertain of the specifics myself. Master merely instructed me to fetch you, conveying an invitation to his presence." A sense of bewilderment settled upon Chen Yang. What could possibly be occurring? Yet, observing Li Mengzi's own lack of clarity, Chen Yang refrained from further inquiries. "Very well, I shall accompany you then," Chen Yang agreed, nodding. The planned excursions to his company and the village committee were postponed, and he proceeded directly towards the Green Cloud Taoist Temple. Initially, his intention had been to check on Chen Tianmin en route. Unexpectedly, upon reaching the Green Cloud Taoist Temple, the very purpose for which Taoist Liu had summoned him was to relay the news that Chen Tianmin was no longer present. This revelation struck Chen Yang with considerable shock. "Second Uncle is no longer at the Green Cloud Taoist Temple? What transpired?" Chen Yang inquired immediately, his voice tinged with concern. "I am equally in the dark. I only just returned myself. Upon hearing the news, I summoned you without delay. For the precise details, we will need to interrogate that old loach," Taoist Liu stated, his own anxiety evident. All arrangements had been meticulously put in place prior to their departure, and now, the individual in question had vanished upon their return. This situation was undeniably vexing. The pair proceeded directly to a side chamber, where they found Ao Min in the midst of his cultivation practice. Taoist Liu had made a hurried return. The moment he entered the temple, he learned from Li Mengzi about Chen Tianmin's disappearance. Consequently, he had not yet sought out Ao Min; his immediate action was to instruct Li Mengzi to notify Chen Yang. He waited until Chen Yang's arrival before proceeding to locate Ao Min. Upon observing Chen Yang and Taoist Liu arriving together, Ao Min immediately surmised the reason for their visit. "Ah, young brother, when did you return? It has been quite some time. You present an even more imposing figure now, little brother," Ao Min began, his words flowing in a stream of effusive flattery. Taoist Liu shot him an admonishing glare. "Enough of your pleasantries, old loach. Cease your nonsensical talk. Where is the individual I entrusted you to watch over? How did he manage to disappear?" Taoist Liu's anxiety surpassed even that of Chen Yang. Should any harm have befallen Chen Tianmin, he would likely bear a significant portion of the responsibility, given Chen Yang's prior assistance in the matter. "Old geezer, was I addressing you? Why must you interject yourself? The person under this king's protection would certainly not have encountered any misfortune. What is it that causes you such undue anxiety?" "You insufferable loach!" "Very well, Ao Min, let us address the critical matter at hand first. Where did he go?" Chen Yang interjected swiftly, observing that the two were on the verge of escalating into a full-blown argument. "Hmph, this king will also settle accounts with you later," Ao Min declared with a cold snort, before turning to Chen Yang with a smile. "Little brother, your second uncle is perfectly well. He departed of his own volition." "He left on his own?" Chen Yang questioned, his brow furrowed in puzzlement. Ao Min elaborated, "Indeed, approximately a month prior, a rather formidable individual visited the temple. He too was a cultivator, situated within the mid-stage of the Qi Cultivation Realm. Following a private conversation between him and your second uncle, your second uncle departed with him." The more Chen Yang listened, the greater his confusion became. Lihe Village was renowned for its exceptional concealment. What manner of individual could have discovered Chen Tianmin's whereabouts? Could it have been the Blood Bat Hall? The prospect seemed improbable. Had it been them, a confrontation between the two parties would have been inevitable. Chen Tianmin, under such circumstances, would never have simply acquiesced to leave with the opposing party.
