A Small Physician Heals People, a Great Physician Heals the World

Looking at his master's back, Lu Qing was somewhat stunned.

Why did he waste his breath trying to get those Flowing Cloud Sect disciples to confess their evil deeds?

Actually, it wasn't that he wanted to know the answer.

With his Supernatural Ability, he didn't need to go through such a complicated process to obtain information.

Actually, he was asking the question for his master and the others to hear.

Otherwise, Lu Qing wouldn't have bothered with all that futile effort; he would have simply killed those scumbags long ago.

It now seems that Master was also completely enraged by the actions of the Flowing Cloud Sect disciples.

"But Master, this will probably delay our journey to Central Province considerably," Lu Qing said.

"It's alright, it's just a detour. Central Province is there, it's not going anywhere. As long as we're determined, we'll get there eventually."

The Old Doctor said indifferently.

Lu Qing paused for a moment, then laughed, "Alright, Master, let's go and try our luck at the Flowing Cloud Sect. Speaking of which, Manor Lord Fang once said that the Flowing Cloud Sect seems to have more than one Innate Realm expert. At that time, I'm afraid we'll still have to rely on you, Master."

"Stop being so glib." The Old Doctor first chuckled and scolded, then said, "However, as long as the Innate Realm of the Flowing Cloud Sect haven't reached the Great Perfection of the Innate Realm, I should still be able to hold them off for a while."

Lu Qing was taken aback for a moment before saying, "Master, you seem to have changed a bit."

My former master would never have said such confident words.

"For years, I have been studying the Medicine Saint's ' Qing Nang Medical Classic,' do you know why?" the Old Doctor asked.

"This disciple does not know."

Lu Qing was also a little confused.

With my master's current medical skills, he is no less skilled than that legendary Medicine Saint, and may even be more skilled.

After all, according to rumors, that Medicine Saint did not seem to have reached the Innate Realm.

Lu Qing had also read "The Qing Nang Medical Classic". The medical theories in it were indeed profound, but from his current perspective, there was nothing too mysterious about it.

It doesn't seem worthwhile for a master, a powerful expert at the Innate Realm, to study it for so long.

"The ' Qing Nang Medical Classic ' left by the Medicine Saint not only records many excellent prescriptions, but also contains many of the Medicine Saint's thoughts on us doctors."

"There's one sentence in particular that I hadn't paid much attention to before, but today it resonates deeply with me," the Old Doctor sighed.

"What are you saying, Master?"

The Medicine Saint once said in the "Qing Nang Medical Classic": "A doctor who heals the sick and saves people is a minor doctor. Only one who can heal the world and save people is a true great doctor."

A certain emotion flickered in the Old Doctor's eyes.

"This old man only knows how to treat illnesses and save lives. Whether I am a minor doctor or a major doctor, it doesn't matter to me."

But what I saw and heard today made me realize that the world is truly in chaos.

The cunning and wickedness of people's hearts have reached a point where there is no cure.

"In such a world, I have no power to cure it, but at least I can seek justice for the townspeople who died tragically, and cleanse this ravaged world of its pus and remove a malignant tumor."

Lu Qing was stunned by the determination on his master's face.

"Alright, let me treat Manor Lord Fang ' injuries a bit more, and also inquire about the situation in Cloud Province. Then we'll prepare to set off."

The Old Doctor turned and left, leaving Lu Qing standing there, staring blankly at his master's retreating figure.

"What? Old Doctor Chen, Young Master Lu, you're going to Cloud Province?"

When Fang Tao and his apprentice learned that the Old Doctor and his group were preparing to go to Cloud Province, they were all greatly surprised.

"Old Doctor Chen, you just killed the Young Sect Master of the Flowing Cloud Sect and so many disciples. The Flowing Cloud Sect is notorious for protecting its own, and they will definitely not let this go. Going to Cloud Province at this time is like walking into a trap," Fang Tao said anxiously.

"Yes, Young Master Lu, that Young Sect Master is the great-grandson of the Grand Elder the Flowing Cloud Sect and also the son of the Sect Master. If you kill him, it will be a direct slap in the face to the Flowing Cloud Sect. Going to Cloud Province now is too dangerous!"

Even the heavily bandaged Da Shi offered some words of advice.

As for Fang Rou and the others, they also looked anxious.

"Manor Lord Fang, I think you're overthinking it," Lu Qing said with a smile.

"The Flowing Cloud Sect is unaware of what is happening here, so why would they make things difficult for us? We have important business to attend to in Cloud Province. Once we have finished, we will leave immediately and will not linger. Please rest assured, Manor Lord Fang."

Fang Tao immediately understood.

That's right. The Flowing Cloud Sect disciples who came to hunt them down were all killed by Lu Qing and his group. There wasn't even anyone left to go back and report, so how would they know about Lu Qing and his group?

However, this reason is barely acceptable.

Fang Tao still found it strange that Lu Qing and the others were going to Cloud Province at this particular time.

"Old Doctor Chen, since that's the case, then let me go back with you. I'm quite familiar with Cloud Province, and I know a little about the people from the various factions and sects there."

With my guidance, avoiding the people of the Flowing Cloud Sect shouldn't be difficult."

Fang Tao thought for a while and then made a suggestion.

"There's no need for such trouble. Manor Lord Fang, you are still injured and need to rest. You shouldn't move around too much."

Besides, our carriage is cramped; it's probably too small to fit another person.

"Manor Lord Fang, all you need to do is mark the locations of all the sects and factions in Cloud Province for us, so we can prepare and avoid them in advance to prevent unnecessary conflicts."

Upon hearing Lu Qing's request, Fang Tao finally began to believe that they did indeed have important business to attend to in Cloud Province.

Since that was the case, he naturally couldn't dissuade them any further. He could only draw a simple map, marking out the major sects and forces in Cloud Province, and explain it to Lu Qing and the others.

"Young Master Lu, in our Cloud Province, there are three major sects, the most powerful of which are..."

These three major sects are so powerful that even the state government has difficulty controlling them because they have Ancestor at the Innate Realm.

Of the three major sects, the Flowing Cloud Sect is the most domineering. Furthermore, you killed their Young Sect Master. On your journey to Cloud Province, if you encounter Flowing Cloud Sect disciples, please avoid them at all costs and refrain from conflict.

Fang Tao now knows that Lu Qing and his group are incredibly powerful and keep their abilities hidden.

Based on the strength Lu Qing had previously demonstrated, even if an ordinary sect were to mobilize all its forces, it would be difficult to defeat them.

However, the three major sects are different. Each sect has Innate Realm Ancestor, in addition to their own enormous power.

No matter how powerful Lu Qing and his group are, they probably won't be able to provoke these behemoths. It's best to avoid them as much as possible.

"Thank you, Manor Lord Fang." Lu Qing put away the map. "Then we'll be leaving now. Manor Lord Fang, please rest and recover here. Master has left you medicine and prescriptions. As long as you take the medicine on time, you'll recover in no time."

Upon hearing that the Old Doctor and his entourage were leaving, the surviving townspeople couldn't sit still any longer and all came out to see them off.

"Old Doctor, young man, we owe you a great debt of gratitude for killing those villains. We are so Clear Wind Town that we will never forget your kindness. I have nothing to repay you with, so please accept this little bit of rice and flour."

An elderly man, his body trembling slightly, handed a basket to the Old Doctor and his colleagues.

Beside him were two boys and a girl, who were only five or six years old.

Behind them stood a large group of townspeople, each holding various items in their hands.

"There's no need for that, sir."

The Old Doctor initially declined the old man's belongings.

Looking at the crowd behind him, he said loudly, "Gentlemen, please take your things back. Our carriage has plenty of food; it can't hold so much stuff."

Clear Wind Town suffered a great calamity this time, and many people died.

The period ahead will definitely be quite difficult.

What they took out might be their staple food for survival, so the Old Doctor naturally didn't want to accept it.

The townspeople initially tried to persuade him, but due to the Old Doctor's insistence, they ultimately had no choice but to take the items back.

After declining all the gifts, the Old Doctor looked at the townspeople on the street.

He said, "Everyone, in the days to come, if anyone asks about our whereabouts, just tell them that my master and I have gone to Cloud Province. There is no need to hide it from us. Please remember this and do not act recklessly."

After saying this, he climbed into the carriage while everyone was still in shock.

"Drive!"

Ma Gu cracked his whip, and the carriage slowly drove out of town.

"I kneel to bid farewell to all my benefactors!"

After the carriage had traveled more than ten zhang, the old man standing in front suddenly pulled his grandson and granddaughter down to kneel down and kowtow repeatedly.

His two grandchildren beside him, though not understanding what was happening, also kowtowed along with their grandfather in a daze.

"Kneeling to pay homage to our benefactor!"

The moment the grandfather, grandfather, and grandson knelt down, it was as if a switch had been flipped. In an instant, all the townspeople on the street also knelt down in unison, kowtowing and bowing in the direction the carriage had left.

This moving scene completely shocked Fang Tao and his apprentices.

After a while, when the carriage disappeared from sight and the townspeople gradually got up.

Fang Rou asked with some confusion, "Father, what did Old Doctor Chen mean by what he said before he left?"

Fang Tao, who was still immersed in his emotions, recalled what the Old Doctor had just said upon hearing this.

A sudden jolt of surprise shot through me, and I blurted out:

"Oh no! Old Doctor Chen aren't on any important business in Cloud Province. They're trying to lure the Flowing Cloud Sect people away to prevent them from bringing further disaster to the town!"
