"My son Ye Fan, you are so tragic!"
Soon, Ye Fan, who had lost his legs, was brought before Ye Lingtian.
Ye Lingtian couldn't bother with anything else and quickly arranged for someone to treat Ye Fan.
However, it was strange that Ye Fan's leg injuries could not be healed at all.
There was no blood flow.
One leg kept getting shorter, and if this continued, the injury would soon extend to the upper body, at which point Ye Fan would completely die.
"Chen Jie, once I heal my son, I will make sure you have nowhere to go, no escape!"
Ye Lingtian roared at the sky, having already condemned Chen Jie to death in his heart.
Ye Fan's wound was very peculiar.
Ye Lingtian hired a martial physician for Ye Fan and used his internal true qi to treat him, but it was also ineffective.
By the next day, Ye Fan's legs had completely disappeared, and soon, even the roots would be affected.
It was then that Ye Lingtian truly panicked.
He inquired everywhere and finally found a top martial physician in Pingcheng named Wu Dalang.
The moment Wu Dalang saw Ye Fan, he immediately said, "Mr. Ye, I'm sorry, but I can't do anything about this kind of injury."
"What? Even Master Wu can't do anything for my son?" Ye Lingtian despaired.
"Why don't you try it first? Even if you can delay the onset of my son's injury, I, Ye, will be eternally grateful!" Ye Lingtian said.
Wu Dalang gave a wry smile, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ye, but for Young Master Ye's injury, I can't heal it, and I don't dare to treat it."
"What?" Ye Lingtian exclaimed.
"I was present when Young Master Ye's legs were severed. Master Chen's ability is beyond my reach. So, if he wanted your son to die, I couldn't stop him, nor would I dare to!"
It turned out that Wu Dalang was one of the members of the circle of masters.
Wu Dalang was among those invited to Chen Jie's villa that day.
However, Wu Dalang looked ordinary and unremarkable, so not many people noticed him at the time.
"Master Chen?" Ye Lingtian asked, confused.
"That's right. The one who severed your son's legs was Master Chen. Mr. Ye, Master Chen's strength is extraordinary. I advise you not to provoke him."
"If my guess is correct, perhaps only Master Chen in the entire Pingcheng has the ability to heal your son."
Wu Dalang said anxiously, "Mr. Ye, I can't stay here long, or I fear Master Chen might misunderstand. Goodbye."
With that, Wu Dalang left.
"Dad, I don't want to die, save me quickly! Save me, ah..."
Ye Fan woke up from his unconsciousness, said a few words, and then fell unconscious again.
Ye Lingtian roared, "My son! I will never let you die! No matter the cost, I will keep you alive!"
"Someone, go and summon Chen Jie to me!"
...
Chen Jie had been cultivating with Lin Mengjiao for two days.
In the afternoon of the second day, Chen Jie exhaled and woke up from his cultivation.
After setting up the Spirit Gathering Array, the cultivation effect was indeed incomparable to what it was before. In just two days, Chen Jie had broken through to the second level of Qi Refining.
If it continued like this, he would reach the third level of Qi Refining before long. Up to this point, he hadn't even used the Qi Gathering Pills he had refined.
As for Lin Mengjiao, with the help of the vast spiritual energy, she was also close to entering the Qi Refining stage.
However, her aptitude was clearly much worse than Chen Jie's. If Chen Jie cultivated at the same level as her, he would be able to break through to the Qi Refining stage in one day.
"Master, Miss Wang came to find you once yesterday. She said that Jiang Xue's company has officially been established and asked if you wanted to come and see it today. You were cultivating yesterday, so I didn't let her disturb you."
As Lin Mengjiao spoke, she exhaled misty spiritual energy, giving her a detached and ethereal aura, like an immortal maiden who had just descended to earth.
This was a sign of a recent breakthrough, which would stabilize in a short while.
"Jiang Xue's company is established, I won't go. She probably won't welcome me either," Chen Jie said.
"Oh, I understand." Lin Mengjiao nodded.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
"I'll get the door!" Lin Mengjiao said.
A moment later, Zhou Wei, led by Lin Mengjiao, excitedly came before Chen Jie.
"Brother Chen, good news! All the protective talismans you gave me have been sold out!"
Zhou Wei chuckled and said, "Brother Chen, I'm here today to buy more protective talismans from you!"
"It was Zhou Shu and the others who bought them, right?" Chen Jie was not too surprised.
Zhou Wei nodded, "Exactly! However, they later mentioned that some friends are also interested, so those ten protective talismans were far from enough!"
Chen Jie frowned, "I don't have any suitable jade pendants to make them right now. Come back tomorrow."
"Brother Chen, it's fine, I've brought them for you!"
Zhou Wei suddenly took out more than twenty jade pendants from his pocket and threw them all onto the table in front of Chen Jie.
He sold these protective talismans for 2.5 million each. With just ten of them, he made five million.
This was even faster than making money through business, so after selling out, Zhou Wei immediately found Chen Jie.
"You're quite shrewd. However, I'll only give you ten for now. Otherwise, in fifteen days, when a large batch of spiritual energy needs to be replenished, it will be troublesome for me too," Chen Jie said calmly.
If a large batch was sold now, a large number of protective talismans would require replenishment of spiritual energy after half a month.
Although this was very simple for Chen Jie, it was still a lot to handle given the quantity.
Therefore, Chen Jie did not plan to release too many protective talismans until this issue was resolved.
Zhou Wei peeked his head forward and asked, "Brother Chen, why don't you teach me how to replenish spiritual energy? I can handle this tedious work in the future?"
Before Chen Jie could speak, Lin Mengjiao glared at him, "Know your place. The opportunity my master is giving you to sell talismans is already a great fortune! Don't get greedy! If not, if master doesn't kill you, I will!"
Zhou Wei chuckled and said, "Your words don't represent Brother Chen's, do they?"
Chen Jie's gaze sharpened as he looked at Zhou Wei and said, "Her words are my words. You are just a dog. Letting you live is the greatest tolerance I can offer."
Zhou Wei quickly shrunk his head.
He felt a pang of fear.
He almost forgot the relationship between himself and Chen Jie.
Thinking of this, he quickly smiled apologetically, "Brother Chen, I got carried away. You are right. I will remember my place in the future."
Chen Jie nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, remember, you only have one chance to make a mistake. The next mistake will be your death."
With that, Chen Jie picked up the jade pendants and casually made ten protective talismans.
"Brother Chen, to make up for my rashness just now, this time, I'll pay you the original price!"
After thinking for a moment, Zhou Wei directly transferred twenty-five million to Chen Jie.
Chen Jie did not refuse.
After Zhou Wei left, Lin Mengjiao hurried back from outside and came before Chen Jie.
"Master, please come to the door and take a look!"
