Chapter 435 Hidden Illness

Yu Zhiyi's heart skipped a beat.

How did we end up talking about the Taixu Sect?

Moreover, wasn't it because the Bai family couldn't contact the four major powers that they posted notices seeking medical help?

Unaware of her thoughts, the Bai family head continued, "Coincidentally, I heard that True Person Lingyun has emerged from seclusion, so I will try to contact him."

Yu Zhiyi was anxious inside, but she didn't show it on her face.

"I'm sorry, I took down the notice because I thought I could resolve this matter quickly. After treating Young Master Bai, I need to rush back to my sect. I really don't have time to waste waiting for others."

Patriarch Bai was taken aback: "Could it be that Miss Jiang has a fire spirit root?"

Yu Zhiyi said calmly, "I have a fire elemental root."

The head of the Bai family repeated the sentence in his mind and quickly understood.

This Miss Jiang is not a single spiritual root, but a double spiritual root or even a worse triple spiritual root.

Actually, he was already a little uneasy when he first saw Yu Zhiyi, because he found that he couldn't see through this girl's cultivation level at all.

This is not a good thing.

This suggests that the girl is either just an ordinary person or that she is more capable than him.

The first possibility seems impossible, since even if ordinary people possess spiritual roots, they have no way to use them for anything.

The second possibility would terrify him.

A young and beautiful girl, whose strength surpasses his, yet who is unknown, makes one wonder about her motives for approaching the Bai family.

Yu Zhiyi had no idea what the Bai family head was thinking. Seeing that the other party was just looking at her without saying a word, Yu Zhiyi frowned: "Bai family head? What do you think?"

"If Patriarch Bai doesn't trust me, he can give up treatment. I'm pressed for time and can't stay any longer."

The head of the Bai family frowned deeply: "Words are not enough. If Miss Jiang cannot prove her abilities, I will not feel comfortable entrusting my son to you. I hope you will understand."

This is to test her medical skills.

Yu Zhiyi did not show any fear: "Has Patriarch Bai been tormented by his hidden illness for a long time?"

The head of the Bai family turned to look at her with a smirk.

Yu Zhiyi seemed oblivious to the danger in his eyes and said calmly, "Patriarch Bai suffers from severe abdominal pain at night, accompanied by other unspeakable ailments."

For example, getting up at night very frequently.

Because of his frequent nighttime awakenings, he was unable to concentrate on his secluded cultivation.

Moreover, for a cultivator to be tormented by frequent nighttime awakenings and incomplete urination is an utter disgrace.

Therefore, apart from himself, only a few of his confidants and the physicians who had treated him knew about this matter.

But he always concealed his true identity when he went to see the healer, so logically no one else should know.

Yu Zhiyi wasn't afraid of him and laughed, "Patriarch Bai, there's no need to overthink it. I haven't planted any spies in the Bai residence. The reason you could tell is because my medical skills are pretty good."

In fact, she had seen through the Bai family head's destiny line.

Strangely enough, since arriving in the Hidden Realm, her physiognomy skills seem to have become increasingly refined.

She had a vague feeling that, if she wanted to, she could easily see through the fate lines of a Golden Core Realm expert.

Not long ago, she even had difficulty seeing through the life line of Bai Gongzi's Qi Refining Realm patient.

"Your symptoms are not due to any disease, but rather to deliberate poisoning. Moreover, it is a slow-acting poison."

"This poison is very mild. At first, not only will outsiders not notice anything, but you yourself will not feel anything either. By the time you start to feel it, the poison has already accumulated to a considerable dose and has caused irreversible damage to your body."

"The person who poisoned you must have a grudge against you, a grudge based on love and hate. So he didn't intend to kill you, but rather to destroy your ability as a man and your reproductive function little by little."

The head of the Bai family turned pale instantly: "Destroy my ability as a man?"

Yu Zhiyi didn't find this kind of thing difficult to talk about: "Don't you feel that since you started getting up frequently at night, the time spent in bed has also shortened?"

The Bai family head's expression grew even more unpleasant.

Because this woman was right!

For the past year, every time he tried to have sex at night, he would be interrupted by the inexplicable urge to urinate.

When he felt the urge to urinate, he naturally lost interest in urinating.

When they went to the outhouse, they found that they could barely urinate.

After all that commotion, he lost all interest in anything else.

Later he changed it to having sex during the day.

At first, it worked quite well, since he only got up frequently at night.

However, starting about six months ago, he would be interrupted by the sudden urge to urinate when he was having sex during the day.

However, since this matter concerns a man's dignity, he naturally couldn't publicize it everywhere.

I was even more embarrassed to be publicly singled out by a beautiful and elegant woman.

Even if he had no feelings for this woman, his male pride made him wish he could disappear into the ground.

“Master Bai, there is no need to feel guilty. You were just tricked by a villain, which caused your health problems. It is not your fault.”

Looking at the woman's calm face and tolerant eyes, the Bai family head felt a strange sense of relief and acceptance.

"You...have a solution?"

He underwent treatment for several years, but none of the doctors could tell that he was poisoned.

Since the woman in front of him could see through it, perhaps he could have some hope?

Yu Zhiyi nodded slightly: "The other party did not use conventional poison, but rather the incantation technique, so ordinary medical practitioners could not see through it."

"This kind of poison is difficult to cure, since you need to know the art of incantation to cure it. But it's also easy to cure, as it's not difficult to cure if you know the art of incantation."

Since this concerned a man's dignity, the Bai family head decided to trust her: "Then I'll have to trouble Miss Jiang."

Yu Zhiyi nodded slightly and had a cup of fresh tea brought over.

Then he took out a blank talisman.

She chanted some incantations over the talisman and then gently flicked the yellow talisman.

The talisman paper spontaneously combusted without fire.

All the talisman ash fell into the teacup.

Yu Zhiyi handed the teacup to the Bai family head: "Drink this tea, and the Bai family head can feel if there is any difference in your body."

The head of the Bai family hesitated for a moment, but still accepted the tea and drank it all in one gulp.

Actually, he didn't feel anything.

After all, his illness mostly occurred at night, and during the day he only frequently felt the urge to go to the toilet when he was having sex.

Thinking of this, he said in a deep voice, "It seems that we should let Miss Jiang stay at the manor for the night."

Yu Zhiyi raised an eyebrow: "Isn't Madam Bai in the manor?"

The head of the Bai family was taken aback, initially not realizing where this seemingly nonsensical question came from.

But he quickly turned pale and said, "Yes..."

He stood up and strode outside, leaving only his words of advice carried on the wind: "Please wait a moment, Miss Jiang."

Before long, the servants brought out fresh fruits, vegetables and tea.

This time, the tea contained a subtle spiritual aura.

The fruits and vegetables were also exquisitely beautiful, with a faint sweet aroma emanating from them.

Yu Zhiyi was very interested in the tea and slowly began to savor it.

The head of the Bai family barged into Madam Bai's room and drove all the servants out.

Then, he didn't come out for a full two hours.

Yu Zhiyi looked at the increasingly dark night sky and pinched her brow helplessly.

I miscalculated.

If she had known she should have left some toxins in the Bai family head's body, she would have doubted whether she should have waited until tomorrow.
