Chapter 433 The Source
After leaving the talisman shop, Yu Zhiyi headed straight for the Bai residence.
As one of the landmarks of Wanyuan City, the Bai residence was not hard to find. Even if Yu Zhiyi didn't have a map, she could still find her way there by asking around.
Unlike worldly noble families, the large families in the secluded realm possess a kind of ethereal and otherworldly charm.
The spiritual energy above the Bai Mansion was extremely dense, and Yu Zhiyi could see a small island floating in mid-air from a great distance.
It really was suspended in mid-air.
The island had no connection to the mainland and was surrounded by clouds and mist, resembling a fairy palace.
The two stone lions outside the gate are particularly imposing.
Before even getting close, Yu Zhiyi could feel a faint pressure emanating from them, indicating that they were not just decorations.
Outside the Bai residence, two guards stood imposing and unapproachable.
As Yu Zhiyi walked over, the two of them turned to look at her simultaneously, their gazes filled with undisguised scrutiny.
Yu Zhiyi didn't flinch and directly stated her purpose: "I've come for this notice."
The two guards were clearly surprised that this young woman, who looked so young and had no spiritual energy fluctuations, and who wasn't even carrying the medicine chest that was typical of medical practitioners, was coming to treat their young master.
However, the two did not express their doubts. All those who came after seeing the notice were guests of the Bai residence.
Of course, whether the guest would be punished if he couldn't cure the young master was none of their business.
Before long, a guard returned to the door after announcing the arrival of the guards and gestured for Yu Zhiyi to enter.
During the time the guard left, Yu Zhiyi kept looking at the sky above the Bai residence.
The major powers in the hidden realm all have their own methods to protect their families, the most widespread of which is defensive formations.
Above the Bai family, an invisible array of light curtains was both ethereal and rigid, occasionally flashing with silver reflections.
"Miss Jiang, please."
The guard politely gestured for them to proceed.
Yu Zhiyi withdrew her gaze and entered the house without looking to the side.
The Bai Mansion is very large, comparable to the imperial palace of the Great Sheng Empire.
If it were an ordinary person without the strength to walk, it would probably take half a day to cross the entire mansion.
Fortunately, neither Yu Zhiyi nor the guard were ordinary people.
The guards walked ahead, their pace quick, but not intentionally to make things difficult for anyone.
He was simply used to this pace; after all, there weren't many people in the entire Bai family who were worth slowing down for.
Even if he doesn't speed up intentionally, many people following behind him will complain endlessly.
Even in the Hidden Realm, Foundation Establishment Realm experts are not commonplace; the majority are in the Qi Refining Realm.
However, the guard glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and found that the young lady Jiang had been following him at a step away the whole time, moving at a steady pace and without panting.
The guard's eyes darkened, and he couldn't help but speed up again.
Yu Zhiyi didn't notice the guard's subtle actions.
Before long, the two arrived at a beautiful courtyard.
Even in secluded places, there are spring, summer, autumn, and winter. While the autumn winds are blowing outside, the Bai family home is as warm as late spring.
Upon entering the courtyard, one is greeted by a breathtaking display of fallen petals.
A faint floral fragrance lingered around my nose; I couldn't quite place the variety.
Yu Zhiyi walked and observed along the way, and finally arrived at the outside of a house.
The cultivator's six senses were sharp, and Yu Zhiyi could smell the strong medicinal aroma even before entering the room.
There was also an indescribable, chilling feeling.
She entered the house and saw a middle-aged man in his thirties sitting in the main seat of the hall.
This person exudes a powerful aura, but not so much so that one cannot discern their cultivation level.
He is a cultivator at the early stage of the Golden Core realm.
Recalling the information about the Bai family that she had heard along the way, Yu Zhiyi deduced that this person might be the head of the Bai family.
Sure enough, the man introduced himself: "Miss Jiang? My name is Bai Zhongrui."
Yu Zhiyi didn't stand on ceremony with him and said, "Patriarch Bai."
"I heard that Miss Jiang took down the Bai family's notice seeking a doctor?"
"Yes." Yu Zhiyi took out the notice and said, "I have studied some medicine, divination, and fortune telling, and I have some knowledge of medicine. If Patriarch Bai doesn't mind, may I visit the patient?"
The Bai family head glanced at her with his sharp eyes and nodded slightly.
Immediately, someone led her to the second floor.
"Miss Jiang, please."
Yu Zhiyi entered the house.
A faint, cool sensation seeped into my skin.
Yu Zhiyi frowned: "Don't you guys think this courtyard is a bit cold?"
The young man leading the way said, "My young master suffers from a cold-related illness."
He didn't explain much, but he subtly revealed the key point.
The reason this courtyard is colder than other places is because of Young Master Bai's cold-related illness.
He himself had become the source of the cold air.
The room was divided into an inner and outer room. After passing through the outer room and entering the inner room, Yu Zhiyi finally saw the patient.
This is a young man with exquisite bone structure; the shape of his eyebrows, nose, and lips is meticulously crafted.
He kept his eyes tightly closed, so it was impossible to tell what color they would be when he opened them.
Perhaps due to the cold air, his skin had an unhealthy bluish-white tinge.
Accompanied by the young man who was leading the way, Yu Zhiyi came to the bedside and took Bai Da Gongzi's pulse.
Unsurprisingly, the young man's skin was also ice-cold to the touch, without any warmth.
Yu Zhiyi carefully examined the young man's face.
To be precise, it's facial features.
This person is only at the late stage of Qi Refining. Logically speaking, with Yu Zhiyi's current abilities, even if she cannot grasp all of his destiny, she should be able to glean some of it.
However, the truth was quite the opposite; she couldn't see anything at all.
The less she could tell, the more carefully she looked.
Suddenly, her eyes turned gold.
At the same time, she also gained a clear understanding of the previously unfathomable destiny of the four young masters.
The young man leading the way only saw the woman with her back to him taking the pulse of the eldest son for a long time, so long that it was somewhat abrupt. It made one wonder if she was not skilled enough to see the illness, yet he could not believe that she would give up the immense wealth offered by the Bai family.
His brow furrowed deeper and deeper.
Just as he was about to speak up and remind the woman, Yu Zhiyi withdrew her hand.
The woman's expression was indifferent, her voice ethereal: "Let's go."
The young man was taken aback: "Where to?"
Yu Zhiyi gave him a strange look: "Naturally, I'm going to see the Bai family head."
youth:"……"
It was all the woman's fault for behaving so strangely that he lost his composure.
The young man walked ahead as always. When he returned to the Bai family head's side, he leaned down and whispered something in the Bai family head's ear without any hesitation.
Yu Zhiyi discovered that she couldn't hear a single word of the young man's betrayal.
She seemed to be deep in thought.
It seems that the people of the hidden realm have more methods than she imagined.
For example, this ability prevents others from discovering the content of the conversation.
Before long, the young man straightened up, and the Bai family head also looked at Yu Zhiyi: "Miss Jiang, can you tell what illness my son has?"
His breathing was calm, and his expression was polite; there was no sign of the despondency that came after countless disappointments.
Yu Zhiyi nodded slightly: "I've figured something out. Your young master is because..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a voice from outside: "Master, Young Master Zhong has arrived."
