“That’s because I’m looking to determine the cause of your illness!” Chen Xiaobei said. “I may have identified the extreme pathogenic illness in your body but I’m not confident I can dispel it just yet. I’m thinking that I could at least try to relieve its symptoms so that you won’t have any attacks anymore!”


“Re… Really?” Wenren Muyue sounded hopeful at the prospect.


She had already accepted the fact that she had only six months left to live, but the idea of being able to live out the rest of her months without the excruciating pain and attacks that wore her down was extremely appealing. The people around her did not have to worry about her, and she could spend what little was left of her life untroubled.


As long as Chen Xiaobei could get the extreme pathogenic cold attacks under control, it was good enough for Wenren Muyue being able to die peacefully. To her this was already a pretty good ending.


“There is a chance,” Chen Xiaobei said. “I will prescribe you some medicine. Once you’ve taken it, I’ll check your vital energy. There shouldn’t be any problems!”


“Alright! Thank you so much, Mr. Chen!” Wenren Muyue smiled.


Qing’er pouted, and was visibly displeased. “Idol! Your medical skills are supposed to incredible! How can you just suppress the illness, but not just get rid of it completely? Think of a way, please… I beg you!”


“That’s because the extreme pathogenic cold that Muyue is suffering from is very strange. Not only are there traces of poison in her system, but also traces of a curse!” Chen Xiaobei explained. “Curses are divided into 3 types: spiritual curses, shaman curses, and magical curses. For now, I have not been able to accurately identify which one she is affected by. Medicine won’t be able to solve any of these curses either. Don’t take my suspicions for it, but I’m leaning more towards a magical curse!”


“Magical curse? Why?” Wenren Muyue and Qing’er asked together.


“Because I have a holy item on me. If it is a spiritual curse or a shamanic curse, then it can be broken easily. But since I met Muyue, her condition did not get better! This means that the magical curse that was inflicted on her may not even contain any demonic presence!”


“Huh…” Wenren Muyu and Qing’er did not really understand what Chen Xiaobei was saying.


The Seven Treasury Fragrant Pouch on Chen Xiaobei’s chest was holding the Cleansing Bodhi that Duobao Rulai had given to him. This holy item was supposed to make sure the bearer would not be affected by anything that was unclean like poisons and disease!


If Wenren Muyue’s sickness was caused by a spirit curse or a shamanic curse, her vital energy should have shown some improvement since she met Chen Xiaobei. But nothing seemed to have changed!


Magical curses originated from Western witchcraft, and were divided into two different kinds. Black magic and white magic.


Chen Xiaobei was still unfamiliar with the arts from the West and that was why he was uncertain, therefore unable to provide an exact method of cure.


The best option available right now was to only apply symptomatic treatment to prevent the attacks from cropping up. When he returned from the Black Desert, he would devote his time to research and hopefully find a way to help change Wenren Muyue’s fate.


Chen Xiaobei wrote a prescription on a piece of paper and sent Qing’er to fetch the medicine.


The Wenren family happened to own a huge treasury that was well stocked with herbal medicines, so Chen Xiaobei did not have to worry about that.


When Qing’er returned with the herbs, Chen Xiaobei taught her how to prepare the medicine.


After that, all they had to do was wait for the medicine to be ready.


“Oh, right. How is Uncle Wenren recently? Is he very busy?” Chen Xiaobei brought up the topic casually. His manner may have been breezy but he was actually ready to launch into interrogation mode about Atlantis.


“Yeah! Father had to attend to some intractable problems recently. There was not a day or night he did not spend in the Governor’s house for meetings. I haven’t heard from him for a few days already!” Wenren Muyue answered.


“Is it about Atlantis?” Chen Xiaobei asked directly.


“Er…” Wenren Muyue looked down and hesitated. She did not really want to talk about it.


“If it’s inconvenient to talk about it, just pretend I didn’t ask. I heard my friend talking about it, so I curious about it.”


Weren Muyue chewed on her lip. “Not that it’s not convenient. The thing is, this matter doesn’t seem like a secret anymore.”


Chen Xiaobei did not express his opinion but waited for Wenren Muyue to continue.


“I have never talked about it with my father, but I’ve heard that they had some difficulties. The portal to earth was destroyed so the people could not travel! Also, the South Temple Starfied’s elders are still unconscious. It is proving to be a very difficult investigation! It’s almost impossible to find the culprit!”


Chen Xiaobei breathed a sigh of relief.


This matter had been bothering Chen Xiaobei like a bad itch. If the Temple had looked into j.a.pan and followed its lead, there was a chance they would find out that it was Chen Xiaobei’s doing.


If the Temple launched a retaliation, Chen Xiaobei and the whole of Bei Xuan Faction would have to face the biggest disaster they would ever experience.


Luckily, the investigation could not continue at the moment. At least, during this short period of time, Chen Xiaobei had nothing to worry about.


“When will the portal be fixed?” Chen Xiaobei asked. “I don’t have any other intentions. I’m just curious, that’s all. I’m wondering how the Northern Wilderness soldiers from earth are going to go back once their service ends?”


“I’m not sure either. The shortest time would be about three to five years. The longest would be about 10 years to rebuild a large-scale portal. It takes a long time and requires a lot of manpower. We will also need a lot of building materials. The hardest part of the reconstruction is finding a Talisman Crafter. Crafting a talisman is the most time consuming of all.”


“Oh, is that so?” Chen Xiaobei nodded. He had nothing to worry about at all.


Before the rebuilding of the portal would be completed, Chen Xiaobei was confident that he could establish his place in Northern Wilderness Starfield. By then, the whole Bei Xuan Faction would have been moved away. Even if the Temple found out the truth, they would not be able to do anything.


Now that this was no longer a problem, Chen Xiaobei could finally relax.


When the medication was ready, Wenren Muyue drank it. Chen Xiaobei then checked her vital energy and even made an exception to check her pulse.


He confirmed that if she took the medication once every three days, the extreme pathogenic cold attacks would not rear its head.


Wenren Muyue was so happy at this news that she kept thanking Chen Xiaobei and even begged Chen Xiaobei to stay for dinner.


But Chen Xiaobei had to refuse her.


Chen Xiaobei was no longer that guy who would forget everything when he saw a beautiful woman. He had more important things to attend to – to expand his cultivation!


There was not a soul in the 2nd Regiment base camp. Ning Yuchen and the others were still stationed in Zachara Grand Canyon.


Chen Xiaobei returned to his room and took out all of the Beast Cores he had with him.


“I must absorb all of these Beast Cores today so that it can be stored as energy inside by body, which will be absorbed gradually!”


Chen Xiaobei also took out another item from the Infinite s.p.a.ce Ring.


It was a flesh-colored fruit, shaped like a newborn child with its legs crossed, perfectly formed limbs and facial features.


If it were not for the stem and two leaves on the top, one might have mistook it for a real baby.


That’s right!


It was the Ginseng Fruit that Chen Xiaobei had received from Grand Deity Zhen Yuan in exchange for an online novel!


“Thanks to that Monkey King stealing the Ginseng Fruits, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing got a taste of it. Today, I’m going to have to try it as well!”


Chen Xiaobei licked his lips and bit into it.
