Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

Although Li Guanqi was not an alchemist, his cultivation realm was high.

He was more than capable of clearing meridians and treating illnesses for ordinary people.

He felt a great sense of accomplishment being able to pull the woman back from the brink of death.

But he also marveled at the woman's good fortune, as her condition hadn't reached the point of no return.

His own mother hadn't had such luck.

When he had followed his grandfather Su Xuan, he had asked why he hadn't saved his mother.

But his grandfather had only said, "Such is fate, beyond remedy."

Now it seemed, there truly was nothing that could have been done for his mother back then...

Even the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion had to stand up straight and salute upon hearing his grandfather's jade slip.

One could imagine just how strong his unreliable old man was.

Chen Xiaotian suddenly awoke, looking at his mother's rosy face, not even glancing at the food on the table.

He got up and threw himself into his mother's arms, tearfully saying, "Mother!! Mother, are you alright? Are you okay?"

Seeing his mother nod with tears in her eyes, the little boy turned to Li Guanqi and began kowtowing repeatedly.

He kowtowed until his forehead was red and swollen, but he didn't stop.

However, neither Li Guanqi nor the woman stopped him; he could bear it.

Only then did Chen Xiaotian realize that the tumor on his neck was gone, his body felt strong, and the heaviness he had felt before was gone.

Li Guanqi raised his hand to stop him from saying words of gratitude, and said.

"I've been holding these chopsticks in my hand for a long time, if you keep talking, the food will get cold."

"Am I not even worthy of a hot meal?"

The woman quickly said with a smile, "Eat, eat, let's eat first."

"Immortal, have some more meat."

Li Guanqi handed the bowl over with both hands and said softly, "Aunt Xu, just call me Guanqi."

Li Guanqi finally removed his disguise, returning to his original appearance.

The woman looked at Li Guanqi's pure white eyes, slightly stunned, a flash of heartache in her eyes.

She had already seen from Li Guanqi's previous actions that perhaps this immortal who claimed to be very strong had also had a difficult childhood.

Especially his behavior in the kitchen.

Xu Jinglan, not knowing where she got the courage from, was suddenly overwhelmed with maternal love and gently embraced Li Guanqi.

Her eyes instantly turned red.

Tilting her head, her rough hands gently patted Li Guanqi's back, and she said as if possessed.

"It's good that you grew up safe and sound."

Even someone as strong as Li Guanqi almost burst into tears at these words.

With moist eyes, Li Guanqi gently patted the woman's back, closing his eyes and softly saying.

"Don't worry, I grew up well."

The three of them sat at the table for a long time before calming down, finally eating a meal that all three would remember for the rest of their lives.

After Xu Jinglan cleaned up, she held the deeply sleeping Chen Xiaotian with a complex expression.

The changes of this day were too fast, so fast that she hadn't recovered from the surprise.

She said softly, "Guanqi, can you take him away?"

Li Guanqi shook his head and said softly, "I can't."

The woman smiled upon hearing this, but didn't say anything.

Li Guanqi said to himself, "Don't think that parents can sacrifice everything for their children."

"In fact, sometimes... letting him see the suffering of the world may not be a bad thing."

He turned to look at the sleeping boy, a smile on his lips, drooling.

He reached out and released a weak stream of Yuan energy to clear his meridians.

"Aunt Xu's current body will live to be a hundred years old without any problems."

"At that time, Xiaotian will only be in his sixties, entering cultivation again... it's not too late at all."

Having said that, the woman nodded with a warm smile.

Li Guanqi then stayed here for three more days. During these three days, the entire village knew that Li Guanqi was a doctor.

And a doctor with extremely high skills, otherwise how could he have cured the Xu family mother and son.

For a time, the men, women, old, and young in the village came to the Xu family, wanting to ask Li Guanqi to help them treat their illnesses.

However, Li Guanqi only chose those families who had helped Aunt Xu in the past.

This scene aroused dissatisfaction among many people, but they dared not speak out.

And Chen Xiaotian, at a young age, after recovering his body, found a job delivering letters in the town.

Aunt Xu even started doing handmade needlework at home. It was hard to imagine that such exquisite embroidery came from such rough hands.

Early in the morning of the fourth day, the family had a rare meal of white flour steamed buns.

And these steamed buns were also earned by Chen Xiaotian himself with his legs and sweet words.

The woman looked at Li Guanqi with a gentle smile and said softly, "Are you leaving?"

Li Guanqi smiled and nodded, not denying it.

"Yes, I'm leaving."

"When you're out in the world, be careful with your words and actions, and be more mindful."

Li Guanqi smiled and nodded, listening to the woman's incessant nagging like a junior.

Chen Xiaotian hadn't spoken all morning, appearing somewhat sullen.

Squeak...

Li Guanqi pushed open the door, smiling and waving his hand.

At this time, the little boy finally mustered up the courage to look up at Li Guanqi and shouted loudly.

"Big Brother Li, will we ever meet again?"

Li Guanqi frowned and thought for a long time, then suddenly the corners of his mouth curled up, and he said with a smile.

"If there are no accidents, we should be able to meet at the Great Xia Sword Sect in a hundred years."

The commotion here naturally attracted the attention of many people.

Li Guanqi stood with his hands behind his back, thunder surging around him, and he stepped into the void and slowly ascended.

This scene shocked the villagers to kneel on the ground, exclaiming that the immortal was showing his spirit.

Li Guanqi turned around and saluted ten feet above the ground, and said softly.

"Aunt Xu, take care of your health and live a long life."

Then, his body was like a roc spreading its wings, soaring straight into the clouds!!!

This scene fell into Chen Xiaotian's eyes, and he finally understood why Li Guanqi would say those words to him.

But he still looked back at his mother who was looking down, and both of them showed a shallow smile when their eyes met.

Chen Xiaotian put his hand into his mother's hand, leading his mother towards home.

And the eyes of all the villagers kneeling on the ground changed again and again when they looked at this mother and son.

Inside their quilts, there were some pieces of silver left by Li Guanqi for them.

There was not much silver, only a mere dozen taels, but it was enough for the mother and son to get through the most difficult times.

From this day on, a small letter carrier with a wooden sword at his waist could always be seen walking the streets and alleys of the town.

At this time, the Yuan energy surging around Li Guanqi was extremely peaceful. Although his strength and realm were still in the late stage of Spirit Transformation, he understood.

A huge mountain had been removed from his path to Void Refinement!

At this time, Li Guanqi still didn't know how terrifying the identity of He Yuning, who had been drinking with him a few days ago, was.

Li Guanqi pondered for a long time, thinking that this place was close to Central Continent, so he might as well go to Central Continent in the Taiqing Domain for a turn.
