The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

"Don’t you dare!"

The giant spirit root was now scared, its tone filled with panic.

After all, it was a tree, and trees are definitely afraid of fire.

Ling Feng chuckled: "And here I was thinking you were so firm, but that’s not the case!"

"Why are all of you humans like this, always threatening others so casually!" lamented the giant spirit root.

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng snickered even more, seeing that Xun Qianqian and the others must have threatened it as well for it to react like this.

"Then you can’t blame us, can you? If you had just cooperated and answered my questions honestly from the start, wouldn’t that have been fine?" Ling Feng said with a smile.

The voice of the giant spirit root seemed helpless: "Really, I don’t have anything. I’m just here absorbing the nature’s spiritual energy until I developed Spiritual Wisdom, that’s all. I have nothing good to give you!"

If it had casually mentioned anything of particular interest, Ling Feng might have believed it.

But this fellow was as stingy as a miser, refusing to admit anything and claiming to have nothing at all, which was a bit hard to believe!

Spiritual Wisdom had been generated, so how could there be nothing special?

Therefore, Ling Feng chuckled: "Alright then, I’ll take your word for it!"

But after saying that, he changed his tone, "I’m going to climb the tree to take a look. If I find something special in the canopy, I’m sorry, but I’ll have to set you on fire when I come back!"

Giant spirit root: "..."

By this time, Ling Feng had already grabbed onto the cracked bark of the trunk and started to climb upward!

He moved quickly, reaching twenty meters in the blink of an eye, with only a few dozen meters left to the canopy.

The Wood Spirit Root clearly panicked, its tone frantic: "Well, it’s not that there’s nothing, it’s just that I didn’t think it was worth mentioning and ignored it!"

"Oh? Let’s hear it then," Ling Feng said with a cold laugh.

After all, it was a plant; how could its wits match those of a human?

A couple of words and it had blurted everything out.

Giant spirit root: "I have nurtured three Spirit Seeds in the canopy, that’s all."

"Spirit Seeds? What are those? Can they be eaten?" Ling Feng asked.

"No, no, they can’t be eaten. They’re tied to my bloodline. Really, you can’t eat them!" The giant spirit root hurriedly pleaded, its tone full of panic, as if it were terrified Ling Feng would actually consume its Spirit Seeds.

"If they can’t be eaten, do they have any other uses?" Ling Feng continued to probe.

The giant spirit root hesitated for a moment: "They can help enhance your power."

"Hmm?"

Ling Feng’s interest was piqued, and he quickly inquired: "How do they enhance it?"

"Just a moment."

The giant spirit root said this, then there came a rustling noise from above. Ling Feng looked up to see a huge green object, entwined with several vines, slowly descending from above!

"You can do this too?"

Upon seeing it, Ling Feng immediately leapt back to the ground and clapped his hands: "You could have said so earlier, making me climb more than twenty meters for nothing, I’m exhausted!"

Giant spirit root: "..."

It thought to itself how cunning humans could be, was he actually unable to climb up at all? If only I had endured a little longer, I wouldn’t have had to hand over the Spirit Seeds now.

Although Ling Feng had said this to tease it, unfortunately, the giant spirit root clearly wasn’t skilled in communicating with humans, which is why it was so easily fooled.

The emerald object reached the ground, looking very much like a pod, about two meters long and one meter wide. It was crystal clear and utterly beautiful to behold.

About a dozen slender vines wrapped around it, seemingly grown into it.

Ling Feng looked it over for a moment and asked loudly: "Is this your Spirit Seed? How does it work?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the green pod suddenly split open, and it slowly opened, revealing the inside to be empty.

"As long as you lie inside, you can absorb the spiritual energy I transport, which is much faster than your own cultivation!" said the Wood Spirit Root mechanically.

"What a great item!"

Ling Feng’s eyebrows danced with excitement as he thought to himself that with this device, wouldn’t the realm of Xun Qianqian and the others increase rapidly?

However, he wasn’t satisfied yet. Xiao Xiao continued to ask, "Is that all? Doesn’t seem like anything special. Don’t you have anything better?"

"Really, there’s nothing else..."

The Wood Spirit Root’s tone was filled with helplessness.

"Alright then, we’ll leave it at that for now. I’ll bring people over some other time."

Ling Feng said, turning to leave.

The Wood Spirit Root was a bit surprised, "What? You don’t want to cultivate now?"

"Of course not, it’s just me now. How do I know you’re not out to harm me? What if I can’t get out once I’m inside?" Ling Feng said with a smile.

Wood Spirit Root: "..."

What about the most basic trust between people?

I’ve taken out my treasure and you still don’t trust me!

Humans, oh humans, you are indeed complex!

Ling Feng turned and left, stuffing his Space Ring with plenty of crab and sea turtle meat along the way.

The night had fallen deep, and he did not disturb Li Shiyun and the others, teleporting directly home.

Unexpectedly, when he reached his front door, he saw that there were lights on in the house!

"Who’s at home?"

Ling Feng wondered as he opened the door and then reached the doorway of the inner room.

There he saw a figure tidying up the house, organizing the cluttered items—it was none other than Li Shiyun.

Watching her busy back, Ling Feng felt warmth in his heart and immediately rushed over, hugging her from behind!

Seeming to know that Ling Feng had returned, Li Shiyun giggled, "Why have you just come now?"

"Then how did you know I would come back?"

"I didn’t know, but they insisted I come back and wait, and they said if I saw you, I should kick you out!" said Li Shiyun.

Ling Feng then understood that everyone knew the two had been apart for too long and were deliberately creating an opportunity for them!

He smiled, turned Li Shiyun around, and pressed his forehead against hers, "Since that’s the case, can’t we bare our hearts to each other tonight?"

"What’s there to bare anymore? Haven’t we already done that?" Li Shiyun said with a gentle laugh.

"I used the wrong word, it should be to recount our feelings of separation!"

The two stood face to face, and although they were not hugging, their bodies were pressed tightly against each other.

Feeling the subtle changes in Ling Feng’s body, Li Shiyun’s face flushed red, and she looked up to give him a reproving glance, "Is that all you think about all day?"

"Of course not, first I thought of you, and seeing you makes me lose control a bit," Ling Feng said with a smile.

Li Shiyun’s face turned even redder, and she gave him a flirty glance, "Well, don’t be in such a hurry. Go close the door first, or it’ll be indecent!"

"Alrighty!"

Ling Feng was overjoyed at her words, thinking it was a good thing he hadn’t arrived when it was inconvenient for her, or wouldn’t that have killed the mood? He quickly shut the door and made sure the bolt was in place. Coming back to the blushing and pleased Li Shiyun, he looked steadily at her face, feeling a strong sense of reluctance to let go.

After a moment, their eyes locked and tangled, and it was unclear who took the initiative first, but they embraced and kissed each other passionately.

As they say, absence makes the heart grow fonder, and for a couple already in the throes of passion, being apart for over a month was torture!

Now that they were finally reunited and could be together for a long time, both felt a sense of relief and completely let go of themselves.
