Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1381: Chapter 1381: Settling in Yunkai City

Perhaps, Nalan Chen has persisted until now relying solely on a single breath!

”Miss, this old servant is alright. Seeing you safe and sound brings me the utmost fulfillment!”

Wearing a smile on his face, Nalan Chen’s greatest wish was indeed to see Nalan Rou safe and sound.

Ye Luo was deeply moved and couldn’t help but admire such a tough man like Nalan Chen!

”Steward Chen, rest assured, this young man may not be very skilled but knows a bit of medicine. I will definitely find a way to cure you!”

”Haha, Ye Luo, with your words, I am content. Don’t worry, your old uncle here is not so delicate. Just give me a few days to recover, and I’ll be able to get out of bed and continue serving Miss!”

Nalan Rou’s eyes brimmed with tears, yet her face overflowed with a smile. Nalan Chen had watched her grow up; ever since she became sensible, he was always by her side!

It was Nalan Chen who had silently protected her and taught her many things!

Ye Luo said nothing more. As long as Nalan Chen did not give up hope of living, everything was negotiable!

Ye Luo did not believe that he, as the Medical Martial God, had no way to heal Nalan Chen!

Of course, now was not the time for Ye Luo to be concerned about these things. Presently, it seemed that Ye Luo and Nalan Rou may only be able to settle down in Yunkai City!

Yunkai City was much smaller compared to Nan Zhou City, but its advantage lay in its unrestricted lifestyle and its simple folk customs. The city lord of Yunkai City was very enlightened; although Ye Luo had not met him, he had heard some things about him.

So, perhaps it wouldn’t be bad to temporarily settle down here.

After all, in Ye Luo’s heart, Nalan Rou had been pampered since childhood, and keeping her in an inn all the time seemed rather unsuitable!

Therefore, Ye Luo decided to buy a manor within Yunkai City. This would be Ye Luo’s temporary home and also for Nalan Chen and Nalan Rou!

Ye Luo went out only with Lu Yi, as Nalan Chen needed someone to take care of him, and by looking at Nalan Rou’s state, it was clear she was probably not willing to leave Nalan Chen’s side.

Fortunately, the assets of the Nalan Family were returned by the City Lord’s Mansion of Nan Zhou City to Ye Luo. Plus, the Qiankun Ring obtained from the Junior City Lord also contained some money, so at least Ye Luo did not need to worry about financial issues for now!

Taking Lu Yi with him, Ye Luo strolled through the streets.

Unlike on Earth, land was not valuable in the Martial Realm, so many people chose a plot of land and then built their own manors after reporting to the City Lord’s Mansion.

However, Ye Luo’s situation was special; he did not have the time to wait for construction, so he needed a manor that was ready to move into.

Yet, the Martial Realm is peculiar indeed, since there is virtually no such thing as a real estate agency.

If Ye Luo wanted to find a house, he could only ask around himself!

”Shopkeeper, do you know of anyone nearby who has a surplus house for sale?”

Ye Luo arrived at a restaurant and asked the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper looked at Ye Luo with some confusion, ”Are you a foreigner?”

Ye Luo nodded, ”Yes, I’ve just moved into Yunkai City, planning to settle down here!”

”Ah, I guess it’s another one dreaming of the Sacred Temple of Yunkai. Listen, you outsiders, why do you insist on buying houses in our Yunkai City? You’ve driven up the prices of our houses, what do you expect us natives to do?”

Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper hadn’t spoken, but a nearby dining customer loudly expressed his grievances!

Ye Luo’s eyebrows knitted slightly - what does this have to do with Yunkai Sacred Temple?

His intent to buy a house in Yunkai City was purely for Nalan Chen and Nalan Rou, yet unexpected complaints had arisen.

Nevertheless, Ye Luo couldn’t be bothered with this person and continued to look at the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper shook his head helplessly and said, ”If you’re looking to buy a house, you might have to try your luck with the Wang Family, as most of the real estate in the city has already been purchased by them. If you want to buy a house, the Wang Family is likely your only option suitable for your choice!”

Ye Luo nodded, not expecting that the Wang Family had a business acumen, understanding the art of monopoly!

What he didn’t know was that the shopkeeper had left something unsaid - because Ye Luo was an outsider, that’s why he had been directed to the Wang Family. Had Ye Luo been a local, he would not have been sent to the Wang Family to buy a house.

Of course, Ye Luo was unaware of this, so he followed the shopkeeper’s advice and quickly made his way to the Wang Family residence.

The Wang Family’s property was expansive, but the only building selling houses was a small one.

As Ye Luo entered, two of the Wang Family’s servants were listlessly sitting inside.

Their job was to receive people looking to buy houses. However, it wasn’t as if there were customers every day, so their days were largely dull.

When Ye Luo walked in, one of the servants rubbed his sleepy eyes and said to Ye Luo, ”Customer, if you’re here to buy a house, feel free to choose whichever you like and let us know!”

It was evident that neither had any intention of getting up.

Ye Luo did not mind and casually started to survey the premises.

However, at this moment, another group of people walked in.

”Well, Yunkai City is quite something, truly has its own unique charm. We should acquire a property here first, and return when the Sacred Temple is about to open. That would be quite nice,” one person remarked.

”Indeed, logically speaking, the opening of Yunkai Sacred Temple is just in the next few months. If we don’t come over early, we might miss the chance for a good entry. That would be troublesome!” another added.

As they spoke, they casually examined the holographic projections inside the house.

Speaking of which, the Wang Family’s holographic projection was impressively realistic. One could clearly see the surroundings of the house, the interior decorations, and so on.

Meanwhile, Ye Luo paid no attention to those people; after all, everyone was here to shop, and as long as no one hindered others, it was fine.

At this time, Ye Luo was observing a certain manor.

This manor was quite special.

Since Yunkai City was built on a mountaintop, only the entrance direction was protected by city walls, while the other three sides were sheer cliffs, naturally without the protection of walls. The manor Ye Luo was looking at, called Yunqi Manor, was constructed on the westernmost side of the entire city. The entire manor was built against the mountain, and it also stood on an outcropping platform, giving the whole Yunqi Manor a unique vista.

Of course, there was another point that particularly attracted Ye Luo: the original owner of Yunqi Manor had left behind a message, saying that within Yunqi Manor, one could have the opportunity to comprehend certain special cloud-related divine skills!

The so-called divine skills are what the Martial Realm refers to as special cultivation techniques.

And when it comes to cloud-related divine skills, naturally, it’s referring to cultivation techniques related to traversing the clouds.

Initially, Ye Luo didn’t take much notice.

But when someone in the distance saw the model of Yunqi Manor in Ye Luo’s hands, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he walked towards Ye Luo!

”This Yunqi Manor, I’ll take it!”
