Transcending the Nine Heavens

Chu Le’er slept from that night till noon! Googlᴇ search Novᴇ(l)Fɪre.net - novelenglish.net . bin

When she woke up, she stretched her arms sleepily. She looked somehow surprised and confused. She stood up tentatively and looked around. Then suddenly she screamed, "What! Why don’t I feel any pain today!"

Duan Shuyi, who was standing beside her, burst into tears. She held her daughter in her arms as she cried, "No pain! No pain! You won’t feel pain anymore! My poor child..."

Chu Le’er looked around her in disbelief. She looked deeply confused. It was as though not feeling pain all of a sudden was unacceptable.

She finally recovered from her stupor and gently climbed into her mother’s arms. Her heart beat madly. As if she was still in a dream, she said softly, "Mother, I’m not in pain anymore... This time, it’s real."

She spoke very softly. It seemed that she was still afraid that this was a dream. She was afraid that if she spoke too loudly, the dream would be over...

"It’s real, it’s real..." Duan Shuyi hugged her daughter tightly her tears were all over her face. "Your big brother has cured you! Cured you..."

Chu Le’er was again stupefied. After some time, she finally regained her senses and said, "Mother, where’s my big brother?"

"He has to deal with some official matters. He’s gone out." Duan Shuyi wiped her tears. "Let’s go. I will start by combing your hair. Then, we’ll get you all dressed up. After that, we’ll wait for your big brother to come back..."

"Yes," Le’er nodded her head intensely. She was inexplicably dependent on Chu Yang now that he had cured her illness. When she had not seen him around when she woke up, she’d felt that something was amiss. It was as though she had lost her balance.

The mother-daughter pair walked out of the room. Yang Ruolan had already prepared a table of sumptuous dishes for her niece so that she could quickly build up her health.

...

Chu Yang was already on his way to the medical center with Chu Feiyan.

Thanks to Chu Feiling’s personal involvement, the small medical center was easily set up. And its location was good too-- it was located on the most vibrant street of the town of Wujin, on Flat Mountain Ridge.

Chu Feilong not only did not obstruct the project, but he even went there frequently to speed up the setup process so that they could open quickly.

Under Chu Yang’s request, medical equipment was obtained to serve as a guise. Only a counter, a consultation room, a chair, a row of benches and a few rooms to accommodate the patients needed to be added.

It was only when Chu Yang arrived at the ’medical center’ that he realized that what his father had called a ’small medical center’ was actually a mansion with a large garden!

Looking from the outside, there were a total of seven rooms. Inside, the walls were richly decorated. The mansion seemed to overflow in all directions, with endless stretches of blocks of houses. In the garden, there was a small bridge with a flowing stream beneath it. There was even a pavilion and a grove of purple bamboos.

Once Chu Yang saw the grove of purple bamboos, he decided that he really liked the place!

He had loved purple bamboos all his life. Only purple bamboos could completely mesmerize him!

In Beyond The Heavens, purple bamboos would blow with the wind.

In his previous life, his first encounter with Mo Qingwu was in an area with purple bamboos.

He had been surrounded by purple bamboos when he vowed his love for her!

In his previous life, again surrounded by purple bamboos, he had parted ways with Mo Qingwu!

Chu Yang walked into the purple bamboos with a smile on his face. He stroked the bamboos one by one. Deep sorrow filled his eyes.

Little did I imagine that there would be a stretch of purple bamboos in Upper Three Heavens... in a place where I will start making a fortune to boot!

Chu Feiyan watched Chu Yang wander through the purple bamboos. Though he had a strange look on his face, he did not disturb Chu Yang.

He knew that Chu Yang was remembering something or someone and that he did not want to be disturbed during such a moment!

After a long while, Chu Yang walked out of the purple bamboo grove. Chu Feiyan thought that something in Chu Yang had changed, but couldn’t tell or understand exactly what it was.

It seemed that Chu Yang had put down or picked up something in his heart.

"How much manpower do you need?" Chu Feiyan asked.

"You and I, that’s enough," Chu Yang smiled.

"Both of us?" Chu Feiyan was shocked: Only the two of them for such a big business? Could they cope with it?

"Don’t worry." Chu Yang revealed a mysterious smile. "It’ll be enough."

He smiled softly and said, "Father and Mother can’t be here as they are the elders of the Chu clan. Besides that, I can’t trust anyone else."

He looked at Chu Feiyan and said, "Fourth uncle, we only have the two of us to make a great fortune!"

Chu Feiyan wiped his nose and smiled bitterly. "Chu Yang, you only need to promise that you won’t dismember my old bones and sell them... If you promise this, I’ll go on this crazy adventure with you one time."

Chu Yang slanted his head, looked at him and said, "Fourth uncle, you’ll definitely be a legend in the Nine Heavens."

"Of course!" Chu Feiyan smiled more bitterly. "The legend that was manipulated and fooled by his own nephew... I guess I’ll be the only person dumb enough in the history of mankind."

Chu Yang burst into loud laughter.

"Fourth uncle, there’s one thing that I’ve never understood. Back when you first met me, why didn’t you act with more authority and verify my identity? If you had done so, then everything else would not have happened," Chu Yang asked miserably.

Chu Feiyan’s face suddenly turned sour. He extended both of his hands and made a three with his left hand and a five with the right, "My dear nephew... Do you think I didn’t want to do so? I’ll tell you the truth then. Before meeting you, I had already caught 35 people..."

Chu Yang was stunned.

"35... Do you know what that means?" Chu Feiyan’s ass braced itself involuntarily.

"What?" Chu Yang asked very curiously.

"This means 71 rounds of heavy whipping!" Chu Feiyan wanted to cry. "Every time I caught the wrong person, your grandpa whipped me for one round! Your father would comfort me every time and your mother would sulk because of it. She would whip me for another round the following day. Every time I ’found’ you I was treated to two rounds of whips! There were no exceptions," Chu Feiyan said with aversion.

"That would be 70 rounds, not 71." Chu Yang was excellent in math.

"Last time... the Old Master had just finished his close-door-training..." Chu Feiyan found it unbearable to look back at the past, "That round almost killed me..."

"Fourth uncle... your luck... is really pitiful..." Chu Yang looked at his Fourth uncle sympathetically.

"After that last round, he gave me an ultimatum: If I didn’t find the real you and brought back a fake one again, he would also turn me into a fake one..." Chu Feiyan’s tears began to drop for every word he said.

"Ah..." Chu Yang said genuinely, "The Old Master is my idol!"

"And my urgh-dol!" Chu Feiyan lamented.

Talking about the past soured Chu Feiyan’s mood. Irritatedly, he gathered the workers and supervised them. He cracked the whip in his hands, playing with it like a devil. The workers completed all of Chu Yang’ demands in just four hours.

Everything was done before dusk!

Chu Yang took a sheet and started writing five words on it with dexterity, "May purple crystals roll in!"

Then, as Chu Yang had specified, Chu Feiyan filled the sheet with molten gold and iron. It formed an impressive-looking plaque that was then hung above the gate door.

Chu Yang also came up with a couplet while Chu Feiyan took on the role of long-term worker, vice-manager, nurse, and servant.

Chu Yang’s couplet went:

Bring purple crystals here and dying men will be brought back to life.

If there are no crystals, even a dying man can not be saved.

A detailed picture of a miser was drawn underneath. Chu Yang had ingeniously made the door of the Huichun Hall into an oval. From a distance, the plaque and the couplet on each side of the door looked like an ancient beast opening its big, bloodied mouth.

It was an expressive representation of what Chu Yang was actually saying : If you dare walk in, I won’t hesitate to slaughter you!

The mural viscerally depicted Chu Yang’s desire for purple crystals!

Chu Yang re-painted the originally snow-white walls by the door into an advertisement. On the left was written: We specialize in treating incurable diseases. We don’t treat small illnesses. We can easily bring a dying man back to life. Internal injuries, external injuries or a mix of both can all be cured with enough purple crystals.

On the right side was written: We specialize in treatments for sexual impotence. I have that problem too.

Underneath, a stalwart man was drawn. His waist was very straight, his chin was full with a curly beard, his eyes overflowed with lust, and one of his feet smashed a big rock into pieces.

On the waist of the stalwart was written in bold: Men are better stiff!

A few big words were written in the same color next to the foot smashing the stones: Man, the tougher he is, the better!

On the man’s ass was written: Jellyfish are despised here!

To the right, the thickest tree trunk that he could draw took up only one-third of the entire picture. Not a single word was written on it.

Chu Yang still thought that it was not enough. He even wrote a few words on a wall that belonged to a nearby restaurant: Come, I’ll let you be as stiff as you want to be!

He added another small line of words: We specialize in treating infertility.

Chu Yang’s plan was very sound.

Many people did not have children. People who practiced martial arts focused a lot on cultivation and it was difficult for them to bear children if they did not reach a certain level of cultivation.

Moreover, everyone wanted to use double-cultivation to raise their children. This way, their children would have an inherently strong foundation for practicing martial arts.

Most martial experts in the Nine Heavens only had children at a considerably old age.

This was inhibiting the development of clans and their breeding!

Chu Yang was very confident. He was able to write out these mad words: Infertile for 30 years? Infertile for 50 years? Or 200 years? No problem! I’ll give you back your fertility if you come to me!

Chu Feiyan watched his nephew write freely on the white walls. The words were written both dexterously and vigorously! They were more than superb!

He commended Chu Yang silently: My nephew is skilled in both the literary and the military arts. And he still knows how to take care of the sick. He’s so talented!

He then saw the string of advertisements written by Chu Yang, which made his testicles cramp.

What’s this gimmick? It’s so ridiculous and disgraceful!

Just as Chu Feiyan was about to step forward and stop him, Chu Yang said slowly, "Fourth uncle, why didn’t you tell the family when you found me? I just can’t understand..."

Chu Feiyan’s face turned pale and he fled like a rat.

Chu Yang was busy the whole night with the Purple Crystals Huichun Hall. Early the next morning, amidst the crackling sounds of countless fireworks and firecrackers, thundering news shook the entire Flat Mountain Ridge in the Upper Three Heavens.

Purple Crystals Huichun Hall, the medical center of the divine doctor, was open!
