Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor

The fierce wind howled around them, sending sand and pebbles tumbling relentlessly across the ground.

Looking up at the sky, the once clear azure had turned so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

Right above the Nine-leaf Purple Ginseng, Yun Sheng saw a rapidly spinning vortex of dark clouds.

The vortex sucked in all the surrounding clouds, swirling them as though a great hand stirred the calm surface of water incessantly.

The air grew heavier, the clouds seemingly pressing closer to the ground nonstop.

The thundering sound of Thunder Shock rose, and the people present seemed to come to a sudden realization.

Nine-leaf Purple Ginseng, the crucial step of transforming from Holy Herb to Divine Herb!

It was said that whenever treasure emerges, it would inevitably cause phenomena between heaven and earth. The transformation of medicinal herb to Divine Grass also must induce no small spectacle, unexpectedly, what the Nine-leaf Purple Ginseng's advancement provoked was… Heavenly Tribulation.

"Little Wildcat, let's go!" Ye Beiming's complexion turned ghastly pale.

Among all natural phenomena, those of heaven and earth are the most terrifying.

Even for those who have reached the pinnacle of strength, it's difficult to contend with the force of nature. Just moments ago, Ye Beiming was secretly delighted about Yun Sheng's safety.

But at this moment, he felt a sense of falling from heaven into hell.

When that rolling thunder struck, a body of flesh and blood like Yun Sheng's simply could not withstand it.

Yun Sheng had never personally experienced such a scene before, nor did she expect that picking herbs would bring such a catastrophe upon her.

In an instant, amidst the flash of lightning and stone fire, multiple plans raced through Yun Sheng's mind.

Just as she always did on the operating table, facing various emergencies like hemorrhage or cardiac arrest, she was able to make immediate, orderly decisions.

To flee, using Earth Escape to dodge in an instant.

That was undoubtedly the best plan, but doing so would mean that the imposing Heavenly Thunder would utterly destroy the Purple Ginseng.

Without the Purple Ginseng, her uncle's hand…

Thinking of Yun Canglang's right hand, the thought of immediately using Earth Escape technique dissipated in Yun Sheng's mind.

She couldn't leave; she had to harvest the Purple Ginseng.

Perhaps, she could take a gamble, using the Shennong Medical Bracelet in her hand. Even if struck by Heavenly Thunder, perhaps she could still use the Divine Power within the Shennong Medical Bracelet to gamble one more time.

Yun Sheng no longer hesitated; a look of determination and resolution flashed through her eyes. She didn't dodge but instead firmly grasped the Purple Ginseng and yanked it upwards.

The moment Purple Ginseng was uprooted, a Heaven-shaking, Earth-shattering Heavenly Thunder descended from the sky.

The sky appeared as if a giant serpent rolled through the clouds. A bolt of Thunderbolt aimed straight for Yun Sheng's top of the skull, as if punishing her for daring to offend the majesty of heaven and desecrate the Divine Medicine.

In the instant the Thunder Shock struck, Yun Sheng felt her body crushed to the ground by a large figure.

The scene was so familiar.

Ye Beiming's familiar scent enveloped her, as if history was rewinding.

Just like that night in Banana Leaf Village, an injured Ye Beiming had also pressed her down beneath him.

But this time, what they were facing was not Great Mage Yang, but rather the irresistible Heavenly Thunder.

"Why?" Yun Sheng could only hear herself asking in a voice that sounded like the buzzing of a mosquito.

Doesn't he know that by doing this, he will die?

All she saw was Ye Beiming's faint smile at the corner of his mouth. In that moment, his grey eyes seemed to be flickering with something. She only saw Ye Beiming's thin lips move: "I am your servant, if you live I live, if you die I die."

Between life and death, Yun Sheng inexplicably recalled a past event.

That event happened before she transversed to the Wuji Continent; in fact, she had already completely adapted to her reborn identity on the Wuji Continent.

It had been a long time since she last recalled the events of the past.

When she was still a child, a patient once came into her grandfather's small clinic.

It was a mother whose lower body was nearly paralyzed. Having found no cure in the city hospital, and with no chance of recovering the use of her hands, she learned about the Yun Family's clinic and came for treatment.

When Grandpa Yun diagnosed her, he initially also regretfully told her that her paralysis would be difficult to cure.

When asked about how the female patient had sustained such severe injuries, she only told Yun Sheng that she was injured while saving her own son.

The female patient had a five-year-old son. One day, after leaving him alone at home to go out for some errands, she repeatedly cautioned the boy not to leave the house.

As she was returning home after finishing her errands, passing by the apartment downstairs, she saw her child poking his head out of a sixth-floor window. The child excitedly called out to his mother, his small body leaning out of the window.

"I saw my child falling down. At that moment, I couldn't care about anything else. My first instinct was to stretch out my hands and catch my child," the female patient recalled the event with lingering fear, yet her face beamed with maternal pride.

The female patient ultimately saved her son, though she nearly became paralyzed in her lower body from bearing his weight and might never be able to stand up like a normal person again. But her son only suffered two broken bones.

After studying medicine, Yun Sheng, from the perspective of a doctor, disapproved of catching someone with bare hands, because from the point of view of modern mechanics, a falling object, even a small stone, can produce tens of pounds of force—let alone a child weighing dozens of pounds.

She remembered asking the female patient if she regretted her actions.

The female patient said she didn't regret it. In fact, at that time, she had no time to consider the consequences, even though her lower body might be paralyzed for life because of it.

After hearing the female patient's words, Yun Sheng was moved. Although she had never been a mother, she still clearly remembered those words.

Back then, Yun Sheng was just a child, but the smile that the female patient showed then and Ye Beiming's smile at this moment were both full of immense love and indulgence.

Hearing those words, her grandfather was moved as well.

In the end, he used his third Dark Needle to unblock the female patient's body.

At the time, Grandpa Yun's health was already declining, but he still chose to use his precious inner strength to save the female patient.

When Grandpa Yun died, the female patient was already able to walk on the ground. She brought her son in person to mourn for Grandpa Yun.

But why did Ye Beiming develop such feelings for her?

A strange, unprecedented feeling sprouted in Yun Sheng's heart.

She frantically pushed Ye Beiming away, with all her might. He didn't want her to die, and she had never wished to trouble anyone else.

Lan and the mages from the Mainland Elite Camp were also stunned by this scene. They didn't even understand why those two would disregard each other's lives to save one another.
