From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

Late at night, at a roadside barbecue stall, a man in a suit was gnawing on stinky tofu by himself at a table while his mobile phone was still in the process of dialing.

After a while, someone picked up on the other end of the phone.

The man in the suit set down his stinky tofu and said, "Second Master, things have indeed turned out as you expected, the waste by Shang Han's side was replaced with someone even more troublesome."

"Did those two die?" A deep voice of a middle-aged man came from the phone.

"Dead, after all, the person who came to protect him was Lin Bozhong, and even if I had joined hands with them, there wouldn't have been the slightest chance of victory," the man in the suit said.

"Lin Bozhong? That damned old thing! Always talking about neutrality, and now he's actually helping my big brother!"

"Second Master, there's something important I need to tell you. Just tonight, I discovered that Xuan Nv is not dead and is living together with Fang Ren."

"Though it's surprising, it's irrelevant to what we need to do."

The man in the suit continued, "No, Second Master, it seems that Shang Han wants Fang Ren to marry his daughter and break off the engagement with Bai Qi."

"Ha, you're still too young. Even if Xuan Nv's meridians are completely severed, how would the Mu Family allow her to marry a good-for-nothing? It's obviously a play directed by Shang Han himself, aiming to blind us, making us believe that Fang Ren and Bai Qi are no longer a possibility.

Once this year passes, Shang Han will certainly come out to clarify everything and have Fang Ren marry Bai Qi."

"Then... Second Master, what do you think we should do next?" the man in the suit asked.

"With Lin Bozhong here, it's going to be difficult. The people capable of defeating him are on the battlefield, and we have no one we can spare to deal with him for the time being."

After hearing this, the man in the suit frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "Right, Second Master, I just remembered that we seem to have captured a Void Beast on the battlefield in the Seventh District, didn't we?"

"What's your idea?"

"I was thinking, we can't deal with Lin Bozhong for the time being, but we can use the Void Beast. As long as we release it near that waste, Lin Bozhong will surely have to protect him, giving us the opportunity to strike while the iron is hot," the man in the suit said.

"Have you gone mad? If anyone finds out that you released a Void Beast in the human safe zone, our entire Fang Family will be held accountable!" the man in the phone rebuked.

"Second Master, the Void Beast definitely can't be released by us.

We need to find someone who can take the blame." The man in the suit said, "Based on my investigations here, Fang Ren has had conflicts with the son of the local police chief in school, but last night, the chief's son was suddenly turned into a vegetable by the Nightfall Organization."

"You mean..."

"Right. Although Fang Ren cannot cultivate, I can fabricate a false fact and blame everything on him, using the police chief's wrath to deal with Fang Ren. Then I can use this chief to execute the subsequent actions smoothly. The chief will ultimately carry all the blame, leaving us unconnected."

"This plan is good. With your identity as a Tianjiang aristocrat, the chief will certainly believe a fabricated incident. But you must ensure that no traces are left behind. After the chief has done his part, you must also get rid of him."

"Don't worry, Second Master. There aren't that many surveillance systems in this small town, making it very convenient to act," the man in the suit said.

"Good. I'll send the Void Beast to you as soon as possible. Remember to be very cautious and don't give yourself away when acting."

------

The next day, Fang Ren woke up early to check on Mu Hui's injuries and found that she was still in an unconscious state.

This made him quite worried. He had wanted to call in for a leave, but as he was about to take out his phone, he paused. He suddenly remembered that his Spiritual Root had absorbed a lot of Red Grass, which can promote the growth of meridians.

If he shared some energy with Mu Hui, perhaps she could recover.

Fang Ren used his consciousness to control his Spiritual Root, extending a tiny gray tendril from his body to wrap around Mu Hui's wrist.

"Qianye, is there a way to share some energy with her?"

No sooner had Fang Ren spoken than the gray Spiritual Root inside him produced some red energy, which started to transfer down the tendril into Mu Hui's wrist.

Fang Ren touched her ankle with his other hand, feeling the changes in her meridians.

Sure enough, as the red energy entered her body, Mu Hui's meridians gradually began to regain vitality. Each inch of the broken parts slowly expanded and started linking together.

"This is incredible..."

Fang Ren watched as Mu Hui's meridians gradually healed, and he was stunned.

If he had known that the White Elixer he had specifically created, which could only heal some of her leg's severe injuries, were not the True Qi Meridians of a cultivator but merely the meridians that supported a normal person's movement.

Yet the energy of the Red Grass was actually able to heal a cultivator's True Qi Meridians!

This was simply miraculous. For 210 years, no one had ever heard of anything related to repairing True Qi Meridians, not even the slightest direction of research.

Fang Ren felt that even if he could restore the walking ability of her legs, it would probably be very difficult to find a way to rejuvenate her True Qi Meridians.

Yet for the Spiritual Root, it seemed so simple.

Just as Mu Hui's meridians were about to be completely restored today, Fang Ren suddenly withdrew the gray tendril from her wrist.

His expression became blank; he had just realized that if her True Qi Meridians were completely restored, she would regain her cultivation ability, and ultimately... as she said herself, once she regained her strength, she would return to the battlefield.

He didn't know which battlefield was hers, but whether it was the most dangerous First District or the relatively safer Tenth District, he didn't want her to go. He didn't want her to leave his side.

```

How wonderful it would be to just continue living this happy life, why let her go to the battlefield?

She can't continue to repair her body any longer, she can't be allowed to regain her cultivation ability, she will leave. Even if he helps her repair her meridians, that should at least wait until he also has the ability to join her on the battlefield, not now.

If they have to part ways just after meeting... that would be too cruel.

Fang Ren also remembered another statement she made that night, she had said she hoped there wouldn't be any elixir that could restore meridians, but at the same time she hoped there would be, her inner conflict was intense.

She also said she didn't want to leave him, Fang Ren remembered it very clearly.

Since she didn't want to leave him, and he didn't want her to leave, then it's better not to let her regain her strength for now. The battlefield is extremely dangerous after all, he couldn't bear to let her go and fight against the Void Monsters, risking her life.

If it's about making contributions to humanity, he could contribute all his knowledge as long as she stays away from the battlefield.

Though the thought is selfish, but faced with such a situation, how many people can truly be selfless?

He didn't know how strong she was, and he didn't want to know; right now he just wanted the two of them to be together.

While Fang Ren was thinking with a dazed expression, suddenly Mu Hui sat up in front of him, her face filled with concern as she reached out towards the front, crying out loudly, "Ah Ran!"

"I'm here." Fang Ren hugged her into his arms, stroking her head with one hand, and soothing her with his voice.

"Are you alright?" Mu Hui still looked at him with some worry.

"I'm fine, an elder saved me."

"What happened thereafter?" Mu Hui asked, looking around the room anxiously.

Fang Ren then told her about how he was saved last night, but held back information about his background. He didn't want her to worry any further, simply saying that those people were local terrorists and made up a reason to gloss over it.

"Why are there people like that?" Mu Hui was deeply saddened. Are these the people they were protecting with their lives? How can their hearts be so ugly!

"It's okay, such people are a minority, don't worry." Fang Ren comforted her.

After much coaxing from Fang Ren, her mood gradually improved.

"Ah Ran, I feel like my body is much better than before." Mu Hui stood by the bed, moving her body, her expression one of surprise.

"I gave you a little bit of elixir last night, which is good for blood circulation." Fang Ren lied to her again.

"What elixir is it? The alchemists in the First District couldn't even alleviate the pain in my meridians."

"It's the same kind that helped you recover your lower leg that day, but you can't take it often. You need to take good care of your body and not force the True Qi through your meridians again, or next time I will punish you."

"How will you punish..."

Fang Ren whispered in her ear with a mischievous laugh, "Of course, in bed."

"You! You're becoming more and more shameless!"

Mu Hui, angered, began to punch his chest with her small fists.

But after only a couple of punches, she stopped. She always felt that she'd recently been indulging in excess coyness, such embarrassingly cutesy actions seen only in soap operas, and yet she was capable of doing them herself...

Fang Ren, riled up by her teasing, held her and said, "It's still early; how about we..."

"No!"

"This is the punishment for making me worry yesterday."

"Ah..."

...

After a bit of playful bickering and flirting, Fang Ren made her some breakfast. With no actual cooking experience, he simply boiled noodles in plain water and added a couple of eggs—just something simple.

Today was Mu Hui's first day at the university.

Somehow Shang Han managed it, but this morning the phone he'd given Mu Hui suddenly received a text message. Her information in the message shockingly showed she was a graduate of Tianjiang Medical University and had come here for further study.

This... A graduate from Tianjiang Medical University would be a top talent in the world, coming to this small city's Mediocre University... for further study?

The excuse seemed far-fetched, didn't it?

Having graduated from Tianjiang Medical University, what could you possibly learn in this Mediocre University? It would make more sense if she came to be a lecturer!

Alright then, no matter the reason, as long as it meant he could stay with Mu Hui, he wouldn't fuss over the details.
