es. But now that Jin Xianglin was looking squarely back at him, it made Xiao Yu even more puzzled: 'Did the old ghost really pass on a message It’s impossible! After I told him about you, I sent him t...Chapter 610: Grandson and Grandfather Reunite
Xiao Yu brought Dai Yuxin to the car, heading towards Wan Sheng Hall. Since Dai Yuxin was now recovered, it was time for her to see her family. After all, she was still young; although Dai Yuxin appeared very strong-willed, Xiao Yu knew that she also missed her loved ones.
Moreover, if she could not see her relatives, it might create an obstacle in her mind, which would hinder her practice. Only by letting go of the burdens in her heart could her practice proceed smoothly!
In Xiao Yu's world, she learned that the world was not what she had seen before; there were indeed ghosts and monsters, and now she herself was a part of this world.
Especially Xiao Yu—she had heard from Old Dai that Xiao Yu’s medical skills were superb. At the time, she never imagined that Xiao Yu was an修行者. But now it made sense; Xiao Yu could cure illnesses that others couldn’t treat.
Although she had entered the world of修行, she still could not tell her family about this. Such matters weren't suitable for ordinary people like her grandfather and parents to know. She would keep all these thoughts deeply buried in her heart! Dai Yuxin thought quietly as they made their way towards Wan Sheng Hall.
"Grandpa..." Outside of Wan Sheng Hall, the moment Dai Yuxin got off Xiao Yu's car, she saw Old Dai walking toward the hall. Instantly, she was so excited that she called out and rushed over to him.
On their way to Wan Sheng Hall, Xiao Yu had told her that her grandfather was currently seeing patients at the Deep Sea branch of Wan Sheng Hall.
Hearing this news, Dai Yuxin’s eyes immediately welled up with tears. She knew her grandfather had stayed in the deep sea for her sake, but she missed him too. Since birth, she had lived with Old Dai, and due to her health condition, they had never been separated before. Now that they hadn't seen each other for over two months, she naturally missed her grandfather very much.
Hearing the familiar call, Old Dai’s originally moving body suddenly stopped, his face showing a look of disbelief as he turned his head to see where the sound came from.
Turning around, when he saw the figure running toward him, the shock on his face instantly transformed into excitement.
"Bang!" Old Dai’s medical bag, which he was carrying, fell onto the ground with a dull thud. But he seemed oblivious to it, his eyes fixated straight ahead on the person running towards him.
Only when the figure rushing towards him came closer did Old Dai slowly spread his arms, and tears rolled down his cheeks to the ground.
"Grandpa! Grandpa... Xiaoxin misses you!" Dai Xiaoxin threw herself into Old Dai's embrace, her eyes welling up with tears as she said excitedly.
"Good granddaughter, your grandpa also misses you!" Old Dai hugged Dai Xiaoxin tightly in his arms. After confirming that it wasn't a dream, he spoke with a choked voice.
Although two months was not long, this was the longest period of separation between them. Moreover, Dai Xiaoxin had an illness to contend with. When they gave her to Xiao Yu at that time, Xiao Yu also informed him that Dai Xiaoxin could only hold on for a year. If she couldn't be cured after a year, then he might never see his granddaughter again.
After hearing the conditions set by Xiao Yu, their family had hesitated, but in pursuit of this glimmer of hope, they decided to take the risk. After all, Old Dai and Dai Xiaoxin had traveled almost everywhere in China without any success. Only Xiao Yu said he could give it a try, so despite the harsh conditions proposed, they agreed.
As long as Dai Xiaoxin could live, everything else was dispensable, even if it meant sacrificing their relationship or never seeing each other again.
But now In just two months, he had actually seen his granddaughter. For him, this felt like a dream come true. However, he secretly rejoiced that he had stayed in the deep sea back then; otherwise, there was no guarantee they would see each other again!
After both their emotions stabilized, Xiao Yu approached them from afar.
"Master Xiao, how is Xiaoxin's illness..." Seeing Xiao Yu approach, Old Dai finally let go of Dai Xiaoxin and asked him.
Since he arrived at the Ten Thousand Lives Hall, although he was very anxious to know about Dai Xiaoxin's condition, he dared not ask a single question. He feared that if he did, it might offend Xiao Yu, which would make staying in the Ten Thousand Lives Hall impossible. After all, Xiao Yu had initially said that Dai Xiaoxin no longer had any relation with them.
But after seeing Dai Xiaoxin now and observing her appearance, Old Dai was still somewhat uneasy. Therefore, he carefully asked Xiao Yu about it.
"For the time being, there are no major issues; however, further treatment is necessary." Upon hearing Old Dai's question, Xiao Yu nodded and replied.
Although Dai Yuxin is already capable of refining the solidified Yin energy, this is merely a preliminary step in her cultivation journey. She will need to continue cultivating under Xiao Yu's guidance until all the solidified Yin energy within her body is completely refined and assimilated; only then can she truly be considered out of danger.
"Is it true Master Xiao!"
"Hehe, Grandpa, it’s true. I have already passed the critical phase, and my life expectancy won’t be limited to just one year!" Upon hearing Dai Laoye's incredulous question, Dai Yuxin immediately wiped away her tears and said with a smile.
After Xiao Yu and the Two Ghosts explained things to her, Dai Yuxin understood what was wrong with her body. She knew that as long as she dedicated herself to cultivation, she wouldn’t encounter the previous issues when the ghost gates opened wide.
"Great, great! Master Xiao, please accept my gratitude; I’m going to kneel and thank you for saving my granddaughter’s life!" Upon hearing Dai Yuxin's words, Dai Laoye was immediately filled with excitement. Since Dai Yuxin’s birth, her illness had troubled him, persisting for sixteen years.
During these sixteen years, he traveled across the country visiting renowned doctors and participating in various medical conferences hoping to find a cure for his granddaughter's condition. Despite his efforts, he only encountered disappointment after disappointment. But now In just two months, his granddaughter’s illness had been resolved, how could this not fill him with excitement
"Grandpa~~~ Grandpa~~~, I’ve already taken Master Xiao as my master, and it's a direct lineage disciple status!" Seeing Dai Laoye's expression, Dai Yuxin called out to her grandfather in an affectionate manner.
"Eh....." Upon hearing this, Dai Laoye was momentarily stunned. He guessed that his granddaughter might have already taken Xiao Yu as her master because according to some colleagues, a disciple with such a rare condition would only receive treatment after拜師(baishi - becoming a disciple). But upon hearing that Dai Yuxin is now a direct lineage disciple of Xiao Yu’s, he found it somewhat unbelievable.
The status of a direct lineage disciple and an ordinary disciple are vastly different. An ordinary disciple might be taught just one specialty technique by the master, whereas a direct lineage disciple carries the responsibility of carrying forward their master's legacy.
Continuing Xiao’s family line! The thought alone seemed incredible to Dai Laoye. How could Xiao Yu not choose someone from his own family as a direct lineage disciple but instead take an outsider
In reality, this was just Dai Laoye misunderstanding the situation. Xiao Yu took Dai Yuxin on as a direct lineage disciple and imparted her with esoteric cultivation techniques rather than righteous energy cultivation methods or medical skills from his own family line. Of course, if Dai Yuxin wanted to learn Xiao’s medical arts, Xiao Yu would teach her, but doing so might hinder her cultivation progress.
Moreover, although Dai Yuxin had a good aptitude for medicine, studying it while simultaneously cultivating might end up hindering both endeavors.
However, Xiao Yu didn't elaborate much on this situation. After all, Dai Yuxin couldn't cultivate all day long; it was also good for her to learn Traditional Chinese Medicine in her free time. She was only sixteen years old, and she already had a decent foundation.
"Alright, Yuxin! You must study hard under your master's guidance and don't disgrace his reputation!" After a moment of contemplation, Grandpa Dai responded sternly to her.
"Yes, Grandfather. I understand," Dai Yuxin replied respectfully when she saw the expression on Grandpa Dai’s face. Only after that did Grandpa Dai reveal a satisfied smile.
"Grandpa Dai, let's go inside!" Xiao Yu didn't say anything until they were done talking. He then turned to Grandpa Dai and said this.
The three of them walked into Wansheng Hall. After they entered, people like Xiao Hongyang turned their gazes toward them. They had witnessed the scene outside just now, and they also knew Dai Yuxin and her situation. During his last visit over the New Year holiday, Xiao Hongyang learned about it from Old Yue as well.
It had been nearly two months since he last saw Dai Yuxin. She was suddenly back here looking very healthy, which made him rather curious. Did Xiao Yu really cure her
This seemed unlikely to Xiao Hongyang who doubted it but then immediately accepted the possibility. He never witnessed Xiao Yu fail at anything before, so despite his doubts, he found everything perfectly reasonable.
"Hongyang! Yuxin has already become my disciple. From now on she will be your junior sister!" After entering the room, Xiao Yu said to Xiao Hongyang.
Xiao Hongyang was already his disciple, and now there's another one - Dai Yuxin. Although they studied different things and had different backgrounds (one being a commoner while the other a cultivator), they were both part of his lineage now. It was necessary for them to get acquainted with each other.
"Er... Nice to meet you, Junior Sister," Xiao Hongyang responded after he heard this from Xiao Yu.
"Nice to meet you too, Senior Brother!" Dai Yuxin greeted him by bowing slightly.
“Very well!” Xiao Hongyang said repeatedly. Looking at the young Dai Yuxin who was thirty years his junior and now became his junior sister made him feel a bit uncomfortable in his heart; however, this feeling dissipated immediately when he saw Xiao Yu. He was already in his twenties but still considered Xiao Yu as his master. Now that there's another younger disciple like Dai Yuxin, it didn't seem too unreasonable.wenty, it wouldn’t result in such extensive experience!However, after hearing what Xiao Yu said just now, he couldn't help but believe it. Indeed, 'prodigies and normal people are incomparable; no mat...
