Romantic Medical Immortal

Chapter 626: Chapter 626: Master of Gynecology

Yun Hong had just left when someone immediately stepped forward.

"Little Divine Doctor, I don’t feel unwell, it’s just that I haven’t gotten pregnant, and my husband calls me a barren hen every day."

The woman’s body was thin and frail, her face worn and weary, indicating a life full of hardship.

"Come over here, I’ll check your pulse first."

Yang Cheng spoke.

Such cases can’t be judged just by looking, but seeing how emaciated she is, even if she gets pregnant, she’d likely not be able to carry it to term.

The woman cautiously approached and extended her wrist, thin as a bamboo stick.

Yang Cheng’s fingertips pressed on her wrist, quickly drawing a conclusion. With a sigh, he said, "You’re severely malnourished and anemic. If this continues, your organs might fail. Living is already difficult for you, how could you possibly get pregnant?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Chan immediately frowned and asked, "Ms. Yue Mei, why have you gotten so thin? Do you not eat at home?"

Yue Mei looked embarrassed and mumbled, "I can’t have children, so my husband won’t give me food. I eat wild vegetables and drink rice soup every day."

"What? Cai Daniu treats you like this!"

Yun Chan widened her eyes in disbelief.

Though Hidden Cloud Village has always been poor, it’s possible to survive off the land, yet this man nearly starved his wife.

Being a woman herself, Yun Chan couldn’t stand to see another woman suffer. She immediately said, "Auntie Pang, please get Cai Daniu for me!"

"Okay!"

Auntie Pang promptly turned and jogged out.

"Ms. Yue Mei, take off your clothes. I’ll check you over."

Yun Chan gently spoke, helping Hu Yue Mei to sit on the bamboo bed.

Hu Yue Mei hesitantly removed her top, revealing a faded undershirt beneath, her skeletal frame resembling a skeleton.

"Oh my goodness! Cai Daniu is so worthless, starving his wife like this."

"There are so many injuries on her! Yue Mei’s life is hardly what a human being should endure!"

Normally, Hu Yue Mei kept to herself; people were not familiar with her but couldn’t help feeling sorry for her.

"Alright, you can put your clothes back on. As the village chief of Hidden Cloud Village, today I’ll stand up for you."

Yun Chan gently patted her shoulder and helped her put her top back on.

Just then, Auntie Pang came back inside with Cai Daniu, who saw a room full of women staring with hostile eyes, bewildered.

Cai Daniu looked at Yun Chan and asked obsequiously, "Village chief, do you need something from me?"

Yun Chan, filled with anger, shouted, "Cai Daniu, treating Ms. Yue Mei like this? Starving her to skin and bones, yet you expect her to bear children for you. Are you even human?"

"I..."

Cai Daniu was momentarily speechless, glaring viciously at Hu Yue Mei.

"Why are you glaring? Dare to be fierce to her with me here?"

Yun Chan sternly rebuked, kicking Cai Daniu’s leg.

Cai Daniu yelped in pain, but even with a hundred guts, he wouldn’t dare retaliate against Yun Chan.

Hidden Cloud Village respected Yun Chan mainly because only she could access the Purifying Spirit Spring; the other villagers had no idea.

If they angered Yun Chan, they wouldn’t just lose access to the Purifying Spirit Spring, they could also be expelled from Hidden Cloud Village.

"I’ll give you two options: either go back and treat Ms. Yue Mei well or divorce her immediately!"

On hearing this, Cai Daniu’s eyes darted around before deciding, "I’ll choose divorce! She can’t have children; what use is a woman like that to me?"

Hu Yue Mei’s heart chilled completely, and she couldn’t help sobbing into her hands.

Yun Chan comfortingly patted her back, then said to Cai Daniu, "I’ll tear up your marriage certificate right away. The house is yours, but everything in it should be split half with Ms. Yue Mei."

Cai Daniu wanted to refuse but seeing the ominous expression on Yun Chan’s face, he could only nod in agreement.

After all, there are many women in the village, he can remarry and have a big boy.

"Auntie Pang, I need to stay to continue treating others, so please take a few strong ladies to help Ms. Yue Mei pack, to prevent her being bullied."

"Okay!"

Auntie Pang agreed, leading a few strong women to assist.

While Cai Daniu usually only knew how to mistreat his wife, he dared not provoke these feisty women, helplessly watching as they took half of the family’s belongings away.

Inside, Yang Cheng continued treating others’ illnesses. What they saw as daunting, he found trivial, resolving their issues simply from behind a screen, earning the new title ’Gynecology Master’.

Seeing the women’s happiness, Yun Chan smiled and said loudly, "Come back after dinner, I’ll go out to gather and mix medicines later."

The crowd gradually dispersed, and Yang Cheng immediately stood up, wrapping Yun Chan’s slender waist in his arms, teasing, "You can be quite scary when angry, but why are you like a gentle lamb on the bed?"

Yun Chan blushed, covering his mouth with her hand.

Their bodies pressed closely together, the atmosphere growing more intimate, until footsteps were heard at the door.

Yang Cheng quickly flipped back onto the bed, acting weak as he looked towards the door.

Ni Qingyao and Kong Lingwen entered, concernedly asking, "Xiaochen, we’ve heard you’ve awoken, how’s your recovery?"

"It’s alright, but I’ll need a few days of rest."

Yang Cheng replied, his gaze landing on Ni Qingyao, asking, "Aunt, have you drunk the Purifying Spirit Spring? Felt anything?"

"I’ve drunk it all; my appetite isn’t as big as before, but I still need to eat portions meant for five people. It seems the Taotie’s Remnant Soul isn’t fully purified."

Ni Qingyao felt a bit melancholy, staying at Da Shan’s House, she almost ate them poor.

"Extend your hand, I’ll check your pulse."

Yang Cheng furrowed his brows, indicating she sit on a chair.

Lately, Ni Qingyao had been binge eating, but instead of gaining weight, she grew increasingly thinner, wrists more slender than before.

Yang Cheng immediately activated his Cultivation Technique, sending True Qi into her stomach, indeed still wrapped in red light, with a faint shadow lurking.

It’s currently just suppressed, on the verge of complete purification.

But being so close isn’t enough; if Ni Qingyao tried cultivating with the remnant soul, she would be wholly consumed by it, becoming a walking corpse.

"You were right, the Taotie’s Remnant Soul isn’t gone, merely suppressed temporarily; considering the current state, it can remain so for maybe another week."

Yang Cheng sighed, pondering a solution.

"Xiaochen, if treatment doesn’t continue, what will happen to me?"

Ni Qingyao’s voice trembled; she wanted to live, but she knew Yang Cheng faced deadly risks climbing the mountain again.

"Aunt, don’t worry, regardless of the circumstances, I’ll continue treating you."

Yang Cheng softly reassured, leaving him no choice but to forge ahead.
