Chapter 1265: Fruitful Yield

“I’m going to heal their wounds,” Chen Xiaobei said as he withdrew some medicinal herbs from the Infinite s.p.a.ce Ring.
Back in the Northern Wilderness Starfield, Chen Xiaobei had drank the last bottle of Hundred Herbs Potion. To cure the injured prisoners fast, he would need to concoct a new batch of medicine as quickly as he could.
Luckily, Chen Xiaobei had cleaned out several treasuries prior to this, so his Infinite s.p.a.ce Ring was well stocked with medicinal herbs. In fact, they were all herbs of fine quality.
With Chen Xiaobei’s outstanding medical skills, it should be sufficiently effective even if he was unable to conjure medicine as effective as the Hundred Herbs Potion.
“Thank you, Mr. Chen for not only avenging us, but for also healing us. We will keep our promise and from today onwards, we will repay your kindness. We will be your slaves!”
The prisoners were impa.s.sioned.
“I, Xiahou Linyuan, from now on, belong to Mr. Chen!”
“I, Qi Changshen, swear my loyalty to Mr. Chen! To my death!”
“I, Xia Hanjiang, am willing to become Mr. Chen’s slave! I will do everything for you!”
The men all gave their vows of allegiance to Chen Xiaobei.
Chen Xiaobei was unmoved by their earnest pledges, already expecting them earlier.
Instead, it was Fang Zi’er who was sweating bullets.
“My G.o.d, all the people who are locked up here are incredibly powerful men!”
“Now, that is something I didn’t know. Can you introduce them to me?” Chen Xiaobei asked with interest as he busied himself with the preparation of the medication.
“Okay…” Fang Zi’er stammered. “Xiaohou Lingyuan was the leader of the Extreme Eight Faction. He was famous for his Extreme Right Dragon Breaking Force. Within ten years, he had defeated every opponent of the same level! If I remember correctly, he’s already reached 80,000 combat power!”
“80,000 combat power in less than 10 years?!” Chen Xiaobei’s eyes glimmered.
It appeared that the Skybreaking Cultivation Pills wasn’t very useful in helping the prisoners break through instantaneously from True Nirvana cultivation to Celestial Cultivation! Apparently, there were quite a number of Celestial Cultivation elites among this group of men!
Being able to take this group of people in would be a great harvest!
“And then there’s Qi Changshen, an esteemed wise man! More than ten years ago, he was Penglai Faction’s brains of the entire operation! When Penglai Faction was under attack, it was Qi Chengshen’s precise calculations that helped them defeat the enemy.”
Chen Xiaobei’s eyes lit up. “This means he is none other than Penglai Faction’s military advisor! With him by my side, I believe that I will be able to win most of our wars!”
“And then there’s Xiao Hanjiang.” When he mentioned the person’s name, Fang Zi’er gulped. “He is known as the genius shaman of this area! He was already able to control the Eight-star Evil Spirit spell before he was 30 years of age! He used to own hundreds of spirits by himself. There was no one else powerful enough to defeat him at that time!”
“Shaman?! Owned over hundreds of spirits?!”
Chen Xiaobei was getting even more excited by the minute! Looking at Qi Changsheng and Xia Hanjiang, Chen Xiaobei realized that apart from powerful elites, there were also some individuals with special abilities being imprisoned here as well.
Chen Xiaobei could not help but think of Liu Xuanxin.
“Lucky G.o.ddess really is no joke! I just got here and I’ve already received such a generous gift! Being able to use the advantages of this group is better than possessing hundreds and thousands of ordinary soldiers! In the future, when I need to establish my power in Northern Wilderness Starfield, these men would come in handy!”
Although it did not show on his face, Chen Xiaobei was walking on air.
“Mr. Chen, I really admire you! You are the most incredible person I’ve ever seen in my life!”
Fang Zi’er looked at Chen Xiaobei like he was a megastar.
“Didn’t you just say that I’ve put your life at risk?” Chen Xiaobei asked.
“That… That’s because I was slow on the uptake! Mr. Chen is a bigger person. Please don’t stoop down to my level,” Fang Zi’er lamented dismally.
“It’s alright. I don’t blame you,” Chen Xiaobei said. “Let’s cut to the chase. Go unlock all the prison doors and bring everyone out. I’ll tend to each one of them personally!”
“Mr. Chen, are you kidding? There are so many of them. It’ll take an eternity! We’re on enemy ground. Sooner or later, someone will walk in! There are so many people here in Penglai Faction who are much stronger than the warden! Let’s get out of here first. They can be tended to when we get back!”
“Only a quack doctor will need that long!” Chen Xiaobei shrugged. “I only need about half an hour!”
“What? Half an hour to cure more than a dozen of men? Mr. Chen, are you exaggerating?”
“Enough talking! If you don’t want to help, then move aside! I still have to go rescue my Lucky G.o.ddess! I will not leave without her!”
“I’ll help! Of course, I’ll help! You saved my life just now. Today, I, Fang Zi’er, will stay by your side no matter what!”
Fang Zi’er searched the warden’s body for the keys, unlocked the doors and gathered all the men for Chen Xiaobei.
Chen Xiaobei had cooked up a large pot of medicine in the Heavenly Smithing Cauldron. He even added ten Taiyi Life Enhancement Pills into the medicinal soup.
Once all the prisoners had gathered before him, Chen Xiaobei began to tend to each one of them.
It was quite a simple process as most of their injuries were superficial. All Chen Xiaobei had to do was to distribute the medicinal soup, advising them to drink the correct dosage and also applied it on their wounds.
There was the occasional patient with broken bones, which required Chen Xiaobei to set the bones right. Later, acupuncture was employed to open up the meridians. Finally, they were given the medicinal soup to complete the healing process.
This cauldron of medicinal soup might have even been as effective as the Hundred Herbs Potion after all. It could even be considered one of the most potent medicines that were available on earth.
Soon, exclamations resonated throughout the prison.
“My goodness! This medicine is miraculous! I can actually feel my wounds healing! Looks like I will be able to recover in less than a day!”
“Me too! The excruciating pain I felt all over my body has dampened! Even my hunger and thirst have reduced! This is indeed a miracle drug!”
“With this medicine, we will all be able to recover before dawn tomorrow! Mr. Chen really is a G.o.dsend!”
Fang Zi’er was completely overcome by shock and awe. Not only was Chen Xiaobei’s cultivation indomitable, his medical skills were just as tremendous!
The term ‘a G.o.dsend’ really was pretty apt!
“Alright! Please rest here, everyone!” Chen Xiaobei clapped his hands. “Which one of you is Mr. Qi? Can you please point me in the right direction? I have to make a move now!”
