Chapter 3

The sky was dark, and a storm was about to sweep the land.

Light could not penetrate the dense forest, making it almost as dark as night.

A girl of about sixteen or seventeen years old navigated the dim forest without a change in her expression, ignoring the rolling thunderclouds above and showing no fear.

To set out only to be caught in the rain, what luck, thought Qin Lily.

With her supernatural abilities, she didn't actually need any herbs to treat Qin Lumin. But to avoid arousing her brother's suspicion, she pretended to gather herbs and wandered around.

As Qin Lily was walking, she suddenly stopped, looking ahead with confusion.

Ahead, the ground had a large crater that she hadn't noticed before, and inside the crater lay a man.

The man had a silver mask on his face, making his appearance unrecognizable.

She approached the crater and, with just one glance, diagnosed the man's condition.

"Pulse is chaotic, body is flushed, and the meridians are excited... Tsk, is this an aphrodisiac?"

Qin Lily looked at her own hands and muttered to herself, "I don't even know if my abilities can heal others right now... Well, let's test on this guy. I don't want to disappoint my brother if I can't heal him."

She had just tested her abilities, which could still heal her superficial wounds, but she wasn't sure if they could heal others.

She slowly jumped into the crater, placed her herb basket to the side, and raised her hand, planning to remove the man's pants.

There was an acupoint near the thigh. As long as she used her abilities to stimulate it, she could turn the poisonous blood into sweat and expel the toxin, thereby neutralizing the aphrodisiac.

She had often treated this kind of condition before, but this man's aphrodisiac seemed more potent.

Unexpectedly, just as Qin Lily finished removing the man's pants and was about to press the acupoint near his thigh, a pair of strong hands suddenly grabbed her wrist with a vice-like grip. A cold voice followed, "Who?!"

Looking down, Qin Lily met a pair of deep, cold eyes filled with sharp intensity.

Qin Lily shrugged and said, "I'm a doctor passing by. I saw you were poisoned and was about to detoxify you, but..."

She paused for a second, then deliberately glanced at a certain part of the man's body.

Logically, under such a strong aphrodisiac, a man's private part should be extremely flushed, tense, and even erect. But...

Qin Lily slowly spoke, "But brother, it seems like you're impotent? No reaction? This is a condition, and it needs treatment!"

The man's eyes beneath the mask were like black holes, deep and unfathomable, exuding a chilling killing intent that could penetrate one's soul.

The lower part of the mask revealed a sharp, defined thin lip. Even though his true appearance was concealed, he emitted an invisible pressure that asserted his high status.

He was not someone to be trifled with.

To clarify her identity, Qin Lily raised her other hand, as well as the herb basket beside her.

"I really am a doctor." She paused, then added, "I can treat any illness, as long as you have the money. I even treat infertility."

The man narrowed his eyes, glanced at her herb basket, then fixed his gaze on her face. His piercing eyes seemed to see through to her innermost thoughts.

The young girl before him had bright eyes and white teeth, a delicate and fair oval face, and large eyes that were as bright and innocent as the stars.

She didn't seem to be one of those people.

After a moment, the man finally released Qin Lily and leaped up from the ground.

His tall figure was slender and handsome, not at all like someone who had been poisoned.

Qin Lily sincerely handed him the pants she had just pulled down: "Brother, why don't you put your pants on first? Although your thighs are quite pale..."

Man: "..."

A black shadow swept by, and an ink-colored long robe already enveloped the man, making his tall figure even more distinguished. The gold-trimmed ink robe was clearly a mark of wealth and status.

"Get out."

The cold words came from the thin lips beneath the mask. The man glanced at the clothes in her hand with evident disgust, as if she was holding something filthy rather than his own garments.

The man's aura was overwhelming, and Qin Lily was not one to persist where she wasn't wanted.

She picked up her herb basket and said earnestly, "Since brother is now awake and unconcerned about the poison in your body, I won't disturb you any longer. Farewell."

The man stood motionless, his back to her.

Qin Lily took a few steps away, then suddenly remembered something and turned back, saying, "Brother, the aphrodisiac poison in you is very potent, but your body hasn't reacted, and your male symbol can't stand up. This clearly indicates an issue, so don't avoid seeking medical treatment! I live at the foot of the mountain. You know the Divine Doctor Qin, right? My surname is Qin. You're welcome to come find me."

Man: "....."

He felt an urge to grab the woman and give her a good beating! Did she have to keep mentioning 'impotence'? Was she even a woman?

But he couldn't. He was barely holding back.

He calculated in his mind. He sensed a special power in this woman. If he acted, she would definitely resist, and there wouldn't be enough time.

"Leave here," he said coldly, his voice as icy as his mask, carrying a strong threat, "Don't make me say it a third time."

"Alright, alright, I'm leaving now. I'll be waiting for you at the Qin Clinic at the foot of the mountain."

Successfully diverting the dangerous man's attention to her uncle, Qin Lily happily picked up her herb basket and left.

She didn't know that shortly after they left, the man's body suddenly vanished into thin air, leaving behind only a large crater, eerie and sinister.

Qin Lily casually picked some common tonic herbs and returned to the temple before the storm hit.

Qin Lumin, being from a family of divine doctors, recognized the herbs. He didn't mention that these tonics wouldn't help his legs. After his sister prepared them, he obediently drank the medicine.

Once he finished, Qin Lily walked over seriously, lifted Qin Lumin's robe, and said, "Brother, you need to take off your pants. Father said that treating this condition requires both medicinal soup and acupoint stimulation for faster recovery."

Qin Lumin was puzzled. Did their father really say that?

However, Lily was adamant, so Qin Lumin had no choice but to reluctantly agree and awkwardly took off his pants.

Qin Lily didn't look too closely. She quietly gathered her supernatural healing power in her hand and pressed it onto the acupoint on Qin Lumin's knee.

Noticing that her healing abilities hadn't weakened but had actually become more solid, Qin Lily breathed a sigh of relief.

One moment Qin Lumin was feeling shy, and the next he cried out in pain, "It hurts!"

Then, to his surprise, he felt a wave of joy. He could actually feel pain? How was that possible? His legs had long been numb!

Qin Lily, unfazed, continued stimulating the acupoint. "It will hurt more later, so bear with it, brother."

Qin Lumin was stunned. He looked at Qin Lily, then at his own legs, feeling waves of warmth in his heart. Could his legs really be saved?

Now that his sister was no longer ill or foolish, if his legs could also recover... He felt overwhelmed with emotion, wanting to hug her tightly and say thank you.
