Upon hearing Cheng Xiaofan's words, Zhang Heng couldn't help but be taken aback. He was going to the hospital to treat Wu Huijuan's mother, and he intended to use this opportunity to lure the snake out of its hole?
Who exactly was this "snake" he was referring to?
"Xiaofan, I don't quite understand what you mean. What snake are you referring to?" Zhang Heng asked, his expression one of bewilderment.
Cheng Xiaofan replied, "The snake I'm referring to naturally means the person who threatened Wu Huijuan, saying they would kill her mother if she revealed who bought information about me!"
Zhang Heng asked, "You mean this person who threatened Wu Huijuan works at the hospital?"
Cheng Xiaofan nodded. "It seems likely!"
Zhang Heng inquired, "Did you obtain this information from Wu Huijuan's qi?"
Cheng Xiaofan shook his head. "No, Wu Huijuan herself doesn't even know who threatened her, so there's no way I could have gotten the information from her qi!"
"This is just my premonition!"
Premonition?
Zhang Heng looked at Cheng Xiaofan in shock.
"Is your premonition very accurate?" he asked.
Cheng Xiaofan chuckled. "Generally, as long as nothing unexpected happens, my premonitions are quite accurate!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Heng genuinely began to question reality.
He honestly didn't know how to describe this young man. Not only did he possess heaven-defying eyes, but he also had this mysterious premonition!
Ever since Cheng Xiaofan was in college, Zhang Heng had noticed his unusual bone structure and extraordinary destiny, knowing he would achieve great things in the future.
Therefore, after Cheng Xiaofan graduated from college, he had been secretly observing his most promising student.
With each observation, Zhang Heng found himself understanding Cheng Xiaofan less and less.
Especially considering that Cheng Xiaofan was the only one who could enter the prehistoric desert oasis on Earth, while everyone else was blocked out, Zhang Heng became even more unsettled.
Could this kid have been possessed by some ancient deity from Earth's past?
Otherwise!
Where would he get such immense capabilities?
At this moment, Cheng Xiaofan said to Zhang Heng again, "If my premonition is correct, the person who threatened Wu Huijuan might be her mother's attending physician!"
"To avoid alerting the enemy, I plan to disguise myself when I go to treat Wu Huijuan's mother, so that the other party doesn't recognize me."
Zhang Heng smiled. "I see you're confident. Do whatever you think is best!"
Not long after!
The younger Mrs. Zhang came out of the kitchen carrying a dish.
She said with a beaming smile, "Old Zhang, tidy up, it's time to eat!"
Zhang Heng's face lit up. "Alright, alright, I'll clear the table!"
As soon as he finished clearing the table, the younger Mrs. Zhang had already brought all her homemade dishes to the table.
Ten dishes were laid out on the table, each looking exquisite, with a perfect combination of color, aroma, and taste.
One pot of old duck soup was garnished with goji berries, had two pieces of Napa cabbage, and the whole golden duck emitted a rich aroma.
"Here, try the old duck soup that the younger Mrs. Zhang stewed!"
The younger Mrs. Zhang personally cut off a duck leg with a small knife and placed it in Cheng Xiaofan's bowl. She then served some soup and said, "Xiaofan, your teacher told me that your cooking is exceptionally delicious, even saying that only someone as divine as an immortal would be worthy of eating your food!"
"Mine might not be as good, but please try it begrudgingly!"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled. "Younger Mrs. Zhang, my teacher exaggerates too much, don't believe him. Your cooking is excellent!"
As soon as he finished speaking,
He lowered his head and took a large gulp of soup, exclaiming, "Delicious, delicious! This old duck soup is authentic. It warms me up from head to toe!"
"Younger Mrs. Zhang, you're a master at making soup!"
Praise from Cheng Xiaofan made the younger Mrs. Zhang so happy that her eyebrows seemed about to fly off.
Zhang Heng poured a full cup of white wine for Cheng Xiaofan. "Xiaofan, come, let's have a drink, the two of us!"
"Alright, let's have a drink!" Cheng Xiaofan immediately raised his cup.
By the time they finished lunch, it was already past one in the afternoon.
Zhang Heng said, "Xiaofan, aren't you going to refine pills for Wu Huijuan's mother? Come, I'll take you upstairs!"
Cheng Xiaofan followed Zhang Heng upstairs.
Zhang Heng opened the door to a bedroom and asked, "Xiaofan, do you think this room will do?"
Cheng Xiaofan glanced inside and nodded with a smile. "It's good. I'll refine the pills in here!"
Zhang Heng asked, "You just had some wine, don't you need to rest a bit?"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled. "Teacher, I don't need to rest."
Hearing this, Zhang Heng said, "Alright then, you busy yourself. I'll be going downstairs!"
After Zhang Heng left, Cheng Xiaofan entered the bedroom and closed the door.
In truth, to cure Wu Huijuan's mother's cancer, Cheng Xiaofan could have done as he did with Sister Simana's mother, by soaking undying tree dregs in water and adding a wisp of his dragon power, allowing her to get out of bed immediately.
However!
From the information he obtained from Wu Huijuan's qi, Cheng Xiaofan discovered that her mother's cancer had been sealed by dark magic.
The reason the other party used dark magic to seal Wu Huijuan's mother's cancer was to control her condition long-term, preventing any improvement.
The ultimate goal of doing so was to easily control Wu Huijuan.
With Wu Huijuan under control, the only way for her to raise money for her mother's continued treatment was to sell more information about Cheng Xiaofan.
As for who had targeted Wu Huijuan's mother, Cheng Xiaofan couldn't get any more information from Wu Huijuan herself.
Based on Cheng Xiaofan's premonition, it was likely Wu Huijuan's mother's attending physician.
Moreover, this physician was a demonic cultivator with some power.
Without a certain level of power, it would be impossible for the other party to use dark magic to seal the cancer cells within someone's body.
To cure Wu Huijuan's mother and break the evil power sealed within her, Cheng Xiaofan had no choice but to use undying tree dregs combined with his dragon power to refine a special pill.
In addition, he had to eliminate that physician while he was at it.
If this person wasn't dealt with, they would inevitably target Wu Huijuan later to prevent her from leaking the names of those who bought Cheng Xiaofan's information.
After closing the door, Cheng Xiaofan did not enter his spatial realm to refine the pills.
He no longer needed to enter his spatial realm; he could directly draw spiritual energy from within the realm in the outside world to assist him in refining the raw materials into pills.
At this moment!
Cheng Xiaofan sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes, and with a thought, a handful of undying tree dregs appeared in his hand.
Immediately, wisps of spiritual energy, like multicolored smoke, flowed out from the spatial realm, forming a massive vortex around Cheng Xiaofan, spinning continuously.
As the spiritual energy swirled, the undying tree dregs in Cheng Xiaofan's hand whooshed into the center of the vortex and were swallowed.
Half an hour later!
Ding!
Two red pills fell into Cheng Xiaofan's hand.
When Cheng Xiaofan opened his eyes, the seven-colored, smoke-like spiritual energy that had surrounded him instantly retracted back into the spatial realm.
Cheng Xiaofan picked up the two pills, a faint smile on his face.
