"There's nothing uncomfortable. Why are you here at the hospital?"
Hearing Bai Yunlong's words, Xie Yun immediately frowned, her expression full of displeasure.
The Traditional Chinese Medicine department was packed with patients. This old man, with no discomfort whatsoever, came to register. Wasn't he intentionally causing trouble?
"Uh, Doctor, please don't misunderstand. It's not that I don't know what's wrong with me, but I just feel something isn't right with my body, so I came for a check-up."
Seeing Xie Yun's annoyance, Bai Yunlong quickly came up with an excuse.
Previously, Qiu Hanying had only told him to register at the Traditional Chinese Medicine department, but she hadn't mentioned whether the person behind it was male or female!
Bai Yunlong knew very well that with a certain level of cultivation, one could even achieve rejuvenation.
What if the female doctor in front of him was the hidden master?
If he offended her, wouldn't his breakthrough be hopeless for the rest of his life?
"Alright, come and sit down. I'll check your pulse."
Hearing Bai Yunlong's explanation, Xie Yun sighed.
Beside them, Lin Chen immediately brought a stool for Bai Yunlong and had him sit opposite Xie Yun.
However, as Xie Yun took Bai Yunlong's pulse, her brows furrowed deeply.
This old man in front of her looked to be in his sixties or seventies, but his pulse was like that of a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties – robust and powerful, strong as an ox!
This clearly didn't look like someone who was ill!
"Uh, Doctor, what's wrong with my body?"
Seeing Xie Yun's strange gaze, Bai Yunlong suddenly became flustered.
Could it be that the female doctor in front of him was that hidden master?
Otherwise, why would she be looking at him with such a peculiar expression now?
"It's nothing. Why don't you tell me where you feel uncomfortable?"
Xie Yun sighed and asked.
She knew that with Bai Yunlong's pulse, she definitely wouldn't be able to find any problems with his body.
"This... Doctor, I just feel like I've reached a certain bottleneck. No matter how hard I try, I can't make any further progress."
"So, I wanted to ask if there's any way for me to advance further."
After much deliberation, Bai Yunlong decided to tell Xie Yun the truth.
For Bai Yunlong, the date agreed with his enemies was fast approaching. If he couldn't break through in time, he would have no choice but to die.
The doctor in front of him might be his only lifeline!
"Ah? Advance further? What do you mean by 'advance further'?"
Hearing this, Xie Yun was completely baffled.
What did this old man mean? Advance further what?
"This... I just want to become stronger."
"Doctor, I have a compelling reason to become stronger. If I don't, my seventy-six family members might all die tragically. Please, Doctor, you must help me!"
After saying this, Bai Yunlong immediately stood up and knelt down in front of Xie Yun.
In his opinion, there were only two people in the entire Traditional Chinese Medicine department.
The other one, a young man in his twenties, looked thin and weak. By no means did he appear to be a master.
Only Xie Yun, with her elegant demeanor, truly possessed the aura of a legendary cultivator.
"Become stronger?"
Hearing this, Xie Yun frowned deeply.
But after half a minute, her expression slightly relaxed: "How about this, my Xie family has a medicinal bath that strengthens the body. If you don't mind, you can try it."
"I don't mind, I don't mind! Thank you, Doctor!"
Hearing that she really had a way to make him stronger, Bai Yunlong became excited.
He knew very well that his current body had already reached the limit of what a mortal could achieve.
To advance further, he would need to resort to some unconventional methods.
Fortunately, with his persistence, he had finally found it!
"Lin Chen, go and prepare the medicinal bath. I'm going to the restroom and take a short break."
After receiving Bai Yunlong's affirmation, Xie Yun turned to Lin Chen beside her.
She had been busy all day. After seeing the last patient, she could finally prepare to go home.
"Okay."
Hearing Xie Yun's words, Lin Chen nodded, cast a meaningful glance at Bai Yunlong, and then turned to prepare.
However, Bai Yunlong was completely stunned.
The gaze he had just received seemed to have seen through him completely.
That feeling of being completely seen through gave Bai Yunlong an inexplicable and strange feeling deep in his heart.
That feeling of being scrutinized from above made him feel somewhat at a loss.
Before long, Lin Chen returned with the medicinal bath ingredients.
"This is a proprietary medicinal bath from Dr. Xie's family. After soaking in it, you will achieve the effect you desire."
Soon, Lin Chen walked out slowly, holding a cloth bag filled with herbs.
"Remember, the herbs in this bag are extremely precious. If you lose it, there won't be another one."
After handing the cloth bag to Bai Yunlong, Lin Chen said meaningfully.
"The effect I desire?"
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Bai Yunlong couldn't help but give a wry smile.
He didn't want anything else right now but to become a disciple of that mysterious person and learn the true methods of cultivation.
How precious could a mere medicinal bath for conditioning the body be?
With his Bai family's status in Zhejiang province, what precious medicinal ingredients couldn't he buy?
"Alright, we're off duty now. You can go too."
After handing the herbs to Bai Yunlong, Lin Chen immediately turned and left.
He had used his Qi Observation technique on Bai Yunlong and found that although his previous actions were clumsy, he was indeed filled with a sense of righteousness, and was not a bad person.
What had happened at Ru Shuang Group before was probably due to being pushed to the brink with no other choice.
"Sigh."
Seeing Lin Chen's retreating figure, Bai Yunlong could only turn and return to his hotel with great helplessness.
After much thought, and with the mentality of trying anything, Bai Yunlong personally went to the kitchen to boil the herbs and prepared a medicinal bath for himself.
"Huh? What's going on?"
However, after soaking in the medicinal bath for ten minutes, Bai Yunlong suddenly felt something was wrong.
"My blood is surging?"
Sensing the changes within his body, Bai Yunlong's eyes widened in disbelief.
At this moment, he felt as if the blood in his body was boiling, beginning to burn.
