Chapter 40: I Can Heal the Prince’s Eyes and Legs

Feng Xiaohan carried his daughter to Wangchuan Courtyard, where the Medical Immortal stood gently, not even sitting on a chair without the host’s permission.

“Medical Immortal Brother , my father is here,” Yu Yu called out.

The Medical Immortal looked at Feng Xiaohan.

“Hello, Yu Yu’s father, I am Yu Yu’s friend, the Medical Immortal.”

“Please, have a seat.” Feng Xiaohan gestured for him to sit.

The Medical Immortal complied and took a seat.

Qing’an brought over freshly brewed tea and poured a cup for each of them.

Yu Yu blinked as she looked at Qing’an, seemingly asking for her own drink.

Qing’an smiled and poured a cup of warm milk for the little princess before stepping aside by the door.

The Medical Immortal took a sip of tea and looked at Feng Xiaohan.

“To be honest, I came today to propose a deal with the Prince.”

“Oh? What kind of deal?” Feng Xiaohan also took a sip of his tea.

Yu Yu imitated her father’s actions and elegantly took a sip of her milk.

“I heard there is a Divine Moon Flower in the residence.”

Feng Xiaohan remained silent as the Medical Immortal rubbed his fingers together.

“If the Divine Moon Flower truly exists, could you give it to me? In return, I will heal the Prince’s eyes and legs, restoring him to his former self.” The Medical Immortal’s gaze was earnest.

“There is indeed something called the Divine Moon Flower in my residence, but it is not mine; it belongs to my adopted son. You will need to negotiate with him.” Feng Xiaohan stated that he could not make the decision.

“Could you please ask Lin Zhi to come for a detailed discussion?”

Feng Xiaohan nodded.

After a while, Lin Zhi arrived using a cane.

“Father, you called me here for what purpose?”

“This is Yu Yu’s friend, who wishes to make a deal with you.” Feng Xiaohan glanced at the Medical Immortal.

Lin Zhi sat down and looked at the Medical Immortal.

“What kind of deal?”

“The Divine Moon Flower.” The Medical Immortal poured a cup of tea for Lin Zhi.

“Sorry, but the Divine Moon Flower is what I intend to use to save my father.” Lin Zhi refused the deal.

“I can heal the Prince’s eyes and legs,” the Medical Immortal said urgently.

“How confident are you?”

“Ten parts confidence.” The Medical Immortal’s tone was firm.

He was very confident in his medical skills.

“Alright.” Lin Zhi agreed almost without hesitation.

He had initially sought the Divine Moon Flower to save his father, and using it himself would only give him a three-part confidence.

After they reached an agreement, Lin Zhi took the Medical Immortal to the ice cellar of the Prince’s Mansion.

“The Divine Moon Flower has already bloomed, and I placed it in the ice cellar to preserve its medicinal properties.”

The Medical Immortal looked at the long-sought Divine Moon Flower, a flicker of excitement flashing in his eyes.

“I will treat the Prince immediately.”

“Good, once my father has recovered, you can take the Divine Moon Flower with you.” Lin Zhi nodded.

The Medical Immortal hurried back to the clinic to retrieve the medicine. This treatment for the eyes was made from a herb he obtained a while ago that had remarkable effects on eye treatment, the very medicine that Yu Yu had been longing to buy, and it was appraised to have a price of one million.

[Medical Immortal, are you going to violate the regulations?] The higher-ups warned.

The Medical Immortal ignored it and continued to bring out items that were not allowed to be taken out of the town.

[Medical Immortal!] The warning voice became sharper.

“Once I obtain the Divine Moon Flower and save someone, I will accept any punishment,” the Medical Immortal’s gaze was resolute.

Seeing that the Medical Immortal could not be persuaded, the higher-ups immediately went to report.

The Medical Immortal returned to the Regent Prince’s Mansion with the medicine.

“Yu Yu’s father, this is the medicine to treat your eyes.” The Medical Immortal handed the medicine to Feng Xiaohan.

“May I take a look?” Lin Zhi asked the Medical Immortal.

The Medical Immortal glanced at Feng Xiaohan and then handed the medicine to Lin Zhi.

Lin Zhi opened the medicine bottle and took a whiff, a fragrant medicinal aroma wafting out.

He couldn’t identify some of the herbs, but he could confirm that this medicine was non-toxic.

Lin Zhi passed the medicine to Feng Xiaohan.

Without any hesitation, Feng Xiaohan swallowed the medicine.

“Yu Yu, go back to the town and fetch me some things.” The Medical Immortal looked at Yu Yu, wanting to send her away.

“Alright, what does brother need to fetch?”

The Medical Immortal named several medicines and prepared items.

After Yu Yu took note, she immediately returned to the town.

After a while, black blood flowed from Feng Xiaohan’s eyes.

The stinging pain in his eyes made Feng Xiaohan grip the armrests of his wheelchair tightly.

“Someone grab his hand.” The Medical Immortal closely observed Feng Xiaohan’s condition.

Lin Zhi still had injuries on his legs, so he called for Yan Chuan.

Yan Chuan held the Prince firmly, preventing him from reaching for his eyes.

Feng Xiaohan let out a series of low groans of pain.

Black blood dripped steadily onto the ground.

Feng Xiaohan desperately tried to grab at his own eyes.

Yan Chuan held him tightly.

The Medical Immortal and Lin Zhi watched anxiously.

After a while, Feng Xiaohan felt a warmth around his eyes.

Time passed second by second.

“Yan Chuan, help me untie the silk band.” Feng Xiaohan lacked the strength to remove the silk bandage himself.

Yan Chuan cautiously loosened his grip and, seeing the Prince no longer desperately trying to grab at his eyes, completely released him to untie the silk bandage covering the Prince’s eyes.

As the bandage came off, Feng Xiaohan trembled and opened his eyes, feeling the brightness, but instinctively closed them again.

“Lord Lin Zhi, please cover the windows; the Prince must not be exposed to bright light for the next few days.” The Medical Immortal glanced around at the sunlit windows.

“Qing’an, cover the windows,” Lin Zhi ordered.

“Understood.”

After a while, Qing’an had someone drape black gauze over the windows.

The light in the room instantly dimmed.

Feng Xiaohan gradually opened his eyes again.

At first, his vision was somewhat blurry, and Feng Xiaohan instinctively raised his hand to shield his eyes.

After a considerable time, he finally saw clearly around him.

Lin Zhi looked at his father with delight.

“Father, how many fingers am I holding up?” Lin Zhi stretched out two fingers, waving them in front of Feng Xiaohan.

“It’s two, you foolish boy.” Feng Xiaohan shot a sidelong glance at his adopted son.

He then lowered his head to find a handkerchief to wipe the blood off his face.

“Thank you,” Feng Xiaohan said softly.

“Your Highness is too polite; this is merely our transaction,” the Medical Immortal replied.

“No, I meant to thank you for sending Yu Yu away.” He had prevented her from seeing her father in such a sorry state.

The Medical Immortal was taken aback, realizing that was what he was being thanked for.

“Your Highness, may I take a look at your legs?” The Medical Immortal wanted to quickly heal Feng Xiaohan and obtain the Divine Moon Flower.

“Alright.” Feng Xiaohan rolled up the cuff of his pants.

The Medical Immortal’s expression turned serious as he pressed on Feng Xiaohan’s legs.

“Do you feel anything?”

“A little bit.”

The Medical Immortal breathed a sigh of relief.

“The problem is not severe; it’s just that the tendons in your feet are too badly injured.”

“I’ll prepare an ointment for you to apply here.” The Medical Immortal pointed to the tendon near the ankle.

“If you apply it for three days, Your Highness will be able to slowly stand and walk.”

“Good.”

“Medical Immortal Brother, here are the things you wanted me to fetch!” Yu Yu appeared, carrying a large pile of items.

“Thank you, Yu Yu.” The Medical Immortal took one of the bottles and handed it to Lin Zhi.

“This is for the recovery of your leg injury.”

Lin Zhi accepted the medicine bottle. “Thank you.”

“There’s no time to lose; I’ll go prepare the ointment now.” The Medical Immortal swiftly left to make the ointment.

Upon reaching the clinic, the Medical Immortal hurriedly started preparing the ointment.

[Ah Yan, you have violated the rules.] A weak male voice echoed.

“I accept,” the Medical Immortal replied while continuing to make the medicine.

A sigh followed.

[Not just you, but also that little one.]

[What’s the point?]

“I have no regrets, and neither does Yu Yu.” They were both trying to save the people most important to them.

[Ah Yan, you…]

“When the time comes, I will send the medicine to you; remember to take it. Yu Yu and I will accept our punishment.”

[What’s the point?]

“Shut up. I know you dislike me; I promised I wouldn’t show up in front of you again and I won’t go back on my word. After I heal you, we will owe each other nothing.” And then they would never meet again.

The clear male voice fell silent, seemingly stunned.

The Medical Immortal focused on making the ointment, and once it was ready, he sent it to the Regent Prince’s Mansion.

“Medical Immortal, this is the Divine Moon Flower.” Lin Zhi handed the box containing the Divine Moon Flower to the Medical Immortal.

“Let’s wait until the Prince is completely healed before you give it to me,” the Medical Immortal waved his hand.
