Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1500: Chapter 1500: Young Girl

As Fang Bai was studying the little girl, she was also evaluating him. Her dark eyes showed a trace of curiosity, confusion, and bewilderment. Her eyebrows occasionally furrowed slightly, as if she was trying to recall something.

From the moment she saw Fang Bai, the little girl felt a sense of familiarity, as if this big brother was a close relative, which made her feel a spontaneous affection. Since appearing here, she had kept her gaze fixed on Fang Bai.

"What... what’s your name?"

Fang Bai exhaled gently, calming his excitement upon seeing the little girl, then squatted down in front of her with a warm expression and asked softly.

For a moment earlier, Fang Bai saw a reflection of Yan Qingyu in the little girl. Especially her gaze, which made Fang Bai feel slightly dazed.

"Big brother, my name is Yan Muyu. The ’Mu’ as in envy, and ’Yu’ as in words."

The little girl’s eyes darted over Fang Bai’s face, her voice childish and clear as she spoke again.

"Yan Muyu... Yan Qingyu... Muyu... Qingyu..."

Fang Bai murmured the two names, looking at the little girl who somewhat resembled the Peach Blossom Empress. His heart stirred slightly, and he asked, "What is your relationship with the Yan Family of Peach Blossom Town?"

"Me, uh..."

When Yan Muyu heard the words "Peach Blossom Town Yan Family," a hint of panic flashed in her eyes. Her pupils darted around, then she replied with a serious demeanor, "I don’t know about any Peach Blossom Town or Yan Family! I’m just a loose cultivator out for some training..."

Fang Bai was amused by Yan Muyu’s demeanor, laughing out loud, realizing the little girl was lying. She likely snuck out without her family’s knowledge and somehow ended up here.

Fang Bai was certain Yan Muyu had deep connections with the Yan Family of Peach Blossom Town. He was confident because he sensed a familiar Martial Artist Aura from the little girl.

In his past life, after meeting the Peach Blossom Empress Yan Qingyu, Fang Bai had gifted several Martial Arts Techniques to the Yan Family of Peach Blossom Town out of love for her. This little girl clearly practiced the techniques Fang Bai had left in the past, resulting in an aura similar to Yan Qingyu’s, allowing Fang Bai to easily deduce her identity.

"Big brother, why are you laughing? Did I say something wrong?"

Yan Muyu looked at Fang Bai, puzzled, tilting her head as she asked.

"Little sister, tell big brother, who taught you the Withered Tree Spring Art?"

Fang Bai asked with a warm smile, looking at Yan Muyu.

"Ah?"

Yan Muyu’s eyes widened, her mouth slightly open. After a while, she stammered, "Big... big brother, how do you... how do you know about the Withered Tree Spring Art? Have you also practiced it?" noveldrama

Fang Bai chuckled, "You haven’t answered big brother’s question yet."

Reluctantly, Yan Muyu bit her finger and said, "Fine, I’ll tell you. My ancestors were from the Yan Family of Peach Blossom Town, but they moved to Female Immortal City many years ago. The Withered Tree Spring Art was taught to me by my parents... Okay, now it’s big brother’s turn to answer my question!"

So she is a descendant of the Yan Family of Peach Blossom Town; no wonder she felt so familiar!

Looking at the little girl before him, with her jade-like complexion and features slightly resembling the Peach Blossom Empress, Fang Bai felt a sense of affection and couldn’t resist patting her head.

"Because big brother once had a fortuitous encounter and learned the Withered Tree Spring Art from a remarkable person. I sensed the Wood Spirit Qi derived from the Withered Tree Spring Art on you, so I knew you practiced it too."

Of course, Fang Bai wouldn’t reveal that the Withered Tree Spring Art was a cultivation technique he left to the Yan family’s ancestor. Instead, he casually made up a lie.

Yan Muyu blinked her bright eyes and said, "Oh... a senior from our Yan Family also mentioned that the Withered Tree Spring Art I practice was taught by a remarkable person long ago. Big brother, do you think the person who taught you and the one who taught our Yan Family could be the same?"

Fang Bai evasively replied, "Well... perhaps!"

While Fang Bai was conversing with Yan Muyu, several Martial Artists trying to recruit him managed to stop three Individual Cultivation Martial Artists and persuade them to join their team.

If Fang Bai agreed to join them, they could form a ten-member team strong enough to venture into the Nether Corpse Land.

"Little brother, have you made a decision? If you agree to join us, we’d have a complete team. We can rest for a day in Female Immortal City and head to Nether Corpse Land the following morning!"

The Female Martial Artist approached Fang Bai again, looking at him expectantly.

By this time, it was getting dark, and Martial Artists entering or leaving Female Immortal City were scarce. It would be challenging to encounter a Golden Core Expert or even someone like Fang Bai, a Foundation Establishment Expert. Hence, the Female Martial Artist was eager to recruit Fang Bai, her sincerity evident.

"Big brother, can you please take me to the Nether Corpse Land as well? I heard from my brother and sister that it’s really fun there, and I want to see for myself! Please... pretty please..."

Yan Muyu lightly tugged on Fang Bai’s sleeve, looking up at his face. Her upper teeth gently bit her lower lip, her big eyes misty, pleading pitifully.

Seeing the little girl begging him, Fang Bai’s resolve softened, and he almost agreed.

He distinctly remembered that, in the past life, the Peach Blossom Empress, who was decisive and formidable in the eyes of others, always loved to tug at his sleeve playfully like this, seeking favors. And he could never bear to refuse her requests.

"Fun?"

Nearby, the Female Martial Artist chuckled, pinched Yan Muyu’s tender cheek, and said, "Little sister, the Nether Corpse Land is filled with corpses and ferocious beasts. Surviving is a slim chance; it’s really not fun at all! You’re too young to enter!"

Yan Muyu pouted, then lifted her chin defiantly, in a tender voice, "I’m not afraid! I’m a Foundation Establishment Expert too!"

Initially, her Aura was weak, making her seem like a novice just stepping on the path of Martial Dao. However, as she spoke, her Aura surged, revealing her Foundation Establishment level cultivation.

While Foundation Establishment at the initial level might only be a lower-tier existence in Female Immortal City, for a little girl no more than four or five years old to reach such a cultivation level was indeed astonishing.

The Female Martial Artist and several Martial Artists exchanged glances, all showing signs of shock.

They had previously focused on recruiting other Martial Artists and had not paid attention to Fang Bai and Yan Muyu’s conversation. Thus, they were unaware of Yan Muyu’s identity, only guessing that the little girl couldn’t possibly be a loose cultivator but was likely a Direct Disciple of some powerful Sect. Otherwise, how could someone so young have such cultivation?
