Chapter 2014
Seeing the speechless expressions on the three men's faces, Zhu Yanyi laughed heartily. She felt particularly happy. Perhaps because she had returned here, even if only briefly, and even though the spiritual energy here was almost gone, being born and raised here made her feel incredibly relaxed in this familiar place.
"Ani, shall we go directly back to the capital?" Yan Aohan asked Zhu Yanyi.
Zhu Yanyi thought for a moment. "Before going to the capital, let's visit Wudang Mountain and Shennongjia first. Although I have many medicinal herbs, I don't have many common ones. If we meet a patient, using medicine from the Saint Realm might make them uncomfortable."
"Okay." Although the Azure Sovereign Group had artificial cultivation gardens, Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan both knew that herbs grown artificially were not as potent as those grown naturally.
"Alright, then we'll go to Wudang Mountain first, then Shennongjia." Yan Aohan nodded, naturally making the arrangements.
"Good." Zhu Yanyi nodded.
Zhu Yanyi had visited Wudang Mountain and Shennongjia several times before, so she was still very familiar with them. However, since they were pristine natural areas, Zhu Yanyi and her companions were still careful. They always suppressed their aura slightly to keep animals and insects from approaching them.
"I didn't expect such complete medicinal resources to still exist in the mortal realm," Yi Yunfei remarked with emotion.
Ouyang Tianyun said, "Last time I came, I went to Changbai Mountain, which is closer to the capital. That place is also a very good medicinal herb reserve."
Zhu Yanyi nodded slightly. "Actually, in our mortal realm, there are many such natural primeval forests preserving many medicinal herbs. It's just that they are hard to find. For example, the part of Kunlun Mountain we came from actually has many good medicinal herbs."
"Then why didn't you look for medicinal herbs in Kunlun Mountain at that time?" Yi Yunfei asked curiously.
"The spiritual energy in Kunlun Mountain is the most concentrated and abundant in the entire mortal realm. So when you enter Kunlun, you can get a buffer. Although you might feel a bit uncomfortable due to cultivation suppression, this discomfort will disappear quickly." Zhu Yanyi paused.
"Because of this reason, the medicinal herbs in Kunlun carry spiritual energy. Ordinary people cannot take them casually. When we return to the Saint Realm, if we have time, we can take a tour of Kunlun Mountain."
"That's a good idea. We'll see how it goes. If we have extra time, we'll stay in Kunlun Mountain for a few days." Yan Aohan had no objection to Zhu Yanyi's plan. More accurately, he agreed with any suggestion Zhu Yanyi made.
It took ten days in Wudang and Shennongjia before Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan set off again for the capital.
However, as soon as they arrived in the capital, they heard news that a tsunami had occurred in the southern sea area, causing many injuries.
When Zhu Yanyi arrived in the capital, she had already heard that Gu Jingtian had led a team to go there to rescue people. The capital was being managed by Old Man Yao.
Zhu Yanyi first arranged accommodation for Yi Yunfei and the other two, then went with Yan Aohan to see Old Man Yao.
Old Man Yao was surprised and delighted to see Zhu Yanyi. She hadn't expected her to return at this time. "Why are you back now? Didn't you say you would return in two or three years?"
"I did some things there and earned some merit, so I got a four-month leave here. I treated it as training, so I came over. Grandpa Yao, how is the situation here now?"
Old Man Yao's medical skills were not as good as Zhu Yanyi's, and she knew this herself. However, even though her skills were inferior to Zhu Yanyi's, they were still excellent.
"What aspect do you want to know about?" Old Man Yao smiled.
"The school is doing well, and the hospital is stable. Now our Huaxia is thriving. Your physical energy agents are working well. The constitution of our Huaxia people has made a qualitative leap. Fewer people are getting sick now."
What Old Man Yao hoped to see most was an empty hospital with no patients. That was the best outcome, proving that the local people were very healthy.
Zhu Yanyi nodded with a smile. She was never surprised by such results. Since she created and repeatedly improved the physical energy agents, this result had been expected.
"Three senior brothers from the Saint Academy came with me this time. Their medical skills are very high. I plan to invite them to teach at my school for a few days."
Old Man Yao had known since Zhu Yanyi entered the Saint Academy that it would become a source of guest lecturers for their Aoyan Traditional Chinese Medicine School. Now it had come to pass. "I have no objection. The students of the Saint Academy are all top-notch. If you can invite them to be teachers at Aoyan, it would be a great fortune for Aoyan."
Zhu Yanyi smiled slightly, then added, "I just arrived in the capital and heard rumors of a tsunami in the southern sea area. How is the situation?"
"Don't worry. Your senior brothers have all gone there. The situation there is basically under control. You have been away for nearly half a year. In these past few months, there have been many natural phenomenon changes.
A while ago, an earthquake occurred in the east, reportedly magnitude 8.2. Fortunately, it happened in an open area, so there were no casualties. Now there is a tsunami. It seems this year is not peaceful."
Old Man Yao was a doctor, but he also studied metaphysics, so he could see through the current situation to some extent.
Zhu Yanyi raised her eyebrows slightly. She did not pay much attention to Old Man Yao's worry, mainly because she did not have many things to worry about. So she only smiled. "Grandpa Yao, disasters in each place are inseparable from the humans living there. Just like here. I think whether it's an earthquake or a tsunami, something must have happened to cause such things."
Old Man Yao smiled after hearing this and did not continue the topic. He only said, "Have you gone home after returning?"
"Not yet. I heard about the tsunami and was worried, so I came to you first." Zhu Yanyi answered with a smile.
Old Man Yao looked at Zhu Yanyi disapprovingly. "Hurry home. Your parents must be missing you."
Zhu Yanyi did not deny this. Her parents loved her, and during her absence, they must have missed her. "Then Grandpa Yao, you are busy. We are leaving first."
Zhu Yanyi did not bother with formalities. She had planned to go back first anyway. Since there was indeed nothing for her to do here, she naturally had to go home.
