At the Xu family's residence.
Xu Xinghe was the patriarch of the elder generation of the Xu family.
In a courtyard.
Two men, both appearing to be around fifty years old, were chatting.
"Brother, congratulations. You've also become a Heavenly Martial Realm cultivator now!" Xu Xinghe said with emotion as he looked at his sworn brother, Tie Yunhan.
"To be honest, I didn't expect it either," Tie Yunhan chuckled. "I thought it would take a few more years."
"Now that you've broken through to the Heavenly Martial Realm, we can fight side-by-side again in the future!" Xu Xinghe said with anticipation.
"I'm very much looking forward to it," Tie Yunhan replied.
"By the way, this Yang Feilong you mentioned, can he really heal the old injuries in my body?" Xu Xinghe asked hesitantly. "You know, I've sought treatment from many martial doctors for these injuries, and they were all powerless!"
"If he can't do anything, I really don't know who else can!" Tie Yunhan said earnestly.
"Is his medical skill that high?" Xu Xinghe asked in surprise.
"When my nephew was severely injured and on the verge of death, you weren't there. If you had been, you wouldn't have such doubts!" Tie Yunhan smiled. "You know, at that time, I thought my nephew was beyond saving. But even in that situation, he managed to cure him. Not only that, but his strength also basically recovered within a few hours. Let me tell you something else: the injury was extremely severe, yet after his treatment, there were no lingering hidden ailments. My nephew has now broken through to the Earth Martial Realm! That severe injury, in retrospect, was a blessing in disguise. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy for him to break through to the Earth Martial Realm!"
"For Ru Shan to break through to the Earth Martial Realm so quickly, your family will surely have another Heavenly Martial Realm cultivator in the future!" Xu Xinghe said with deep emotion.
"More or less!" Tie Yunhan grinned.
"Grandpa!" Just then, a voice rang out.
"Hm?" Xu Xinghe looked up, and two figures came into view.
"Xiao Fei, is this the divine physician Yang?" Xu Xinghe asked, smiling as he looked at Yang Feilong and appraised him from head to toe.
Although he had been told Yang Feilong was young, seeing him in person still astonished him. Not only was he handsome, but he was also incredibly young!
"It's him!" Xu Fei said, glancing at Yang Feilong.
She was quite displeased with Yang Feilong. Over the past few days, she had contacted him several times, but he had always been indifferent. She had never encountered such a situation before.
After all, she had many suitors, including many prodigies!
But those men were either handsome but lacked strength and talent, or they possessed strength and talent but their appearance didn't meet her aesthetic standards.
She was very picky about her partner!
Although she was dissatisfied with Yang Feilong's romantic indifference, and she theoretically shouldn't like such a scoundrel, she couldn't help but think about him.
Perhaps he was the only one who treated her without any pleasantries, as if he wished he didn't know her!
"Feilong, this is Xu Xinghe. You can call him Grandpa Xu!" Tie Yunhan said with a smile.
"Grandpa Tie, Grandpa Xu." Yang Feilong smiled at the two of them.
Although their strength might not necessarily surpass his own, they were elders, and Yang Feilong naturally wouldn't be impolite.
"Good, good!" Xu Xinghe looked at Yang Feilong and asked with a smile, "Does young Yang have a girlfriend?"
"Uh." Yang Feilong's expression stiffened slightly.
He really hadn't expected Xu Xinghe to suddenly ask such a question.
"Haha," Tie Yunhan chuckled at this.
"What are you laughing at?" Xu Xinghe shot Tie Yunhan an annoyed glance.
Tie Yunhan just smiled and said nothing.
"He's a scoundrel with many girlfriends," Xu Fei immediately chimed in, giving Yang Feilong a look of disdain.
Yang Feilong: "..."
Sister, do you still want me to save your grandfather?
"I have a few girlfriends," Yang Feilong replied with a smile.
Although he was accustomed to Xu Fei's always sharp remarks, he remained unfazed.
"Then would you mind having one more?" Xu Xinghe asked with a chuckle. "My granddaughter, Xu Fei, is a beauty like no other. She's beautiful and kind-hearted. Being your girlfriend shouldn't be a problem, right?"
"Uh, this..." Yang Feilong's face turned red, and he felt extremely awkward.
This old man was really quite open-minded to say such things. How was he supposed to answer?
"Grandpa, what are you talking about? I don't like this kind of scoundrel," Xu Fei said, her face flushed with anger. "It's not like I can't get married; there are plenty of men who like me, and many of them are far more outstanding than him!"
"Grandpa Xu, as you can see, a forced melon isn't sweet," Yang Feilong spread his hands, feigning helplessness. "It would be too much of a compromise for Sister Xu Fei to be my girlfriend. Only those men who are even more outstanding than me are worthy of her."
"Hmph, at least you have some self-awareness!" Xu Fei snorted.
But for some reason, saying this made her feel strangely guilty and lacking in confidence.
Of course, in front of Yang Feilong, she would absolutely not admit that the men pursuing her were inferior to Yang Feilong.
"Alas, it seems you two have some minor conflicts, but in my eyes, you're quite well-matched!" Xu Xinghe couldn't help but say.
"Grandpa, you're making it sound like I have no choice but to marry him!" Xu Fei said indignantly.
"Cough, cough, Grandpa Xu, we can talk about these things later. For now, let me examine your condition and cure your hidden ailments to restore your health. That's the most important thing!" Yang Feilong interrupted. He only had one thought at the moment: to quickly cure the old man and then go accompany Yang Qingqing.
He had no interest in bickering with Xu Fei.
Firstly, there was no need; secondly, winning the argument would still be a loss; thirdly, he might not even be able to win. If Xu Fei couldn't win the argument, she might start speaking in a childish tone, which would make him want to spit blood, as he truly couldn't stand such a voice.
"Alright then!" Xu Xinghe nodded.
But his voice was tinged with regret. In his opinion, the two were very compatible. His granddaughter was someone he had watched grow up, and she was excellent and had high standards.
As for Yang Feilong, he was incomparably outstanding. Although he hadn't treated him yet, based on what he had learned, Yang Feilong was one of the most outstanding young individuals.
No, the "one of" should be removed!
Under twenty years old, he was the number one on the Earthly Ranking of the Prodigy List, and he possessed extremely high medical skills!
He was truly a young man whose excellence evoked envy.
Such an outstanding young man, he naturally hoped would become a couple with his granddaughter!
Although it seemed there were some minor conflicts between them now, a few small disagreements were nothing. Didn't many couples start out as adversaries?
Perhaps, as they bickered, they would eventually fall for each other?
Such things happened quite often!
