Chapter 1438 - 644: Scarcity (2)

"What?"

"Medicine man, how should it be done?"

Ding Hui seemed quite surprised, but then, when looking at Fang Yu, there was a hint of amusement and genuine happiness in her eyes.

It was as if Fang Yu had unlocked some sort of shackle, bringing him closer to her position, making their relationship more intimate and understanding.

"Firstly, it requires selecting suitable candidates. A natural medicine man is the best choice, but an acquired one is also acceptable. However, regardless of which, a vast number of people are needed for the selection process."

"...Where are we going to find so many people, so many samples?"

Ding Hui shrugged without answering.

Fang Yu fell into deep thought.

"How about the slave organization? Aren’t they collecting medicine men, perhaps they have the ones we need."

Ding Hui shook her head: "There’s little hope. The slave organization keeps selecting medicine men from various towns and capturing them, but what we need is fundamentally different from their needs. We require pure medicine men who meet our criteria—not just those who haven’t been tampered with, but those that meet our requirements in all aspects, so they can produce Diao Ruonian’s blood and also accommodate Diao Ruru."

"Whereas the slave organization usually works on demand, finding acquired medicine men that match those requirements. Thus, their needs are different from the start. As for natural medicine men, they capture them if possible. But the rarity of natural medicine men meeting our criteria is virtually nonexistent."

"And acquired medicine men, after such filtering, usually don’t meet our requirements. Plus, the slave organization cultivates their medicine men directly. Once they are involved in other cultivation processes, it’s not easy to clean them up. Medicine men with residual issues are a huge hazard. Thus, the medicine men from the slave organization likely do not meet our needs either."

"Remember, the pure medicine men, those who haven’t been tampered with in any way, are the most suitable for us. These medicine men allow us to constantly adjust their physical condition during cultivation, creating a flawless host. I imagine you wouldn’t want your second sister to suddenly die when entering a new body."

Fang Yu understood that pure and untainted medicine men were the top priority. That is, those whose medicine man status hasn’t been discovered yet, or just discovered and haven’t begun processing, are the best choice.

Fang Yu wondered if, after obtaining a medicine man, he could really bring himself to witness a person turning step-by-step into a type of medicinal material, and perform such cruel acts. But for now, he decided to do it. Even if he knows that the second sister would never agree as she resurrects, he still wants to do it!

"If you say so... the chances of finding a suitable medicine man in the Jiuyao Organization are indeed slim. But there’s still a sliver of hope. So... if there are no suitable medicine men in the Jiuyao Organization, where should we find ones that meet our criteria?"

Ding Hui spread her hands: "Looking for a needle in a haystack, you think medicine men grow on trees?"

Fang Yu frowned; this was not the result he wanted.

Just at that moment, Ding Hui’s gaze towards him softened, gently stroking her lower abdomen, she said gently: "Actually... there is one more way to solve this problem, that is... my dear husband, we could, together, create a new life, make our new life become the vessel for Diao Ruru, to let her be reborn into this world."

Wha...t?

Fang Yu was so shocked his mind almost went blank, he nearly couldn’t comprehend what Ding Hui meant.

When he realized, when he understood, he was startled enough to instinctively take two steps back.

"You! You you you, what you mean is... we give birth to the second sister together??"

Ding Hui played coy, with a timidity as fake as could be, saying: "Yes, medicine men are hard to find, so we’ll have one ourselves. I don’t mind~"

"You don’t mind, but I..."

Fang Yu instinctively wanted to argue, but when he looked at Ding Hui, the words that would hurt her couldn’t come out.

He just turned his head, muffled and sullen.

"Is there any other way? You are Divine Doctor Ding Hui, after all."

As Fang Yu’s voice fell, he immediately felt something soft almost cling to his body.

A faint fragrance reached him; she whispered softly.

"But I’m also a woman, you know, a woman who can have children."

"..."

Fang Yu remained silent.

He could feel Ding Hui’s affection, but Ding Hui is from the Seeking Demon World. In more than half a year, the Seeking Demon World will descend upon Blue Star, causing devastation akin to the apocalypse. There are too many things he needs to prepare and deal with in advance, too much uncertainty, making him hesitate and waver in many things.

He... couldn’t make a promise.

"Just kidding~"

With a light body, Ding Hui had already pulled away. But the loneliness in her voice couldn’t be hidden.

Fang Yu instinctively grabbed Ding Hui’s wrist, causing her to freeze in place.

"..." Fang Yu lowered his head, gripping Ding Hui’s wrist, his ears turning red.

"...It takes too long."

These words almost implicitly agreed to it.

Ding Hui laughed, a smile blooming as bright as a flower.

Her gaze was soft, yet filled with unabashed joy.

"Ten months of pregnancy isn’t long at all. If dear husband tries hard enough, I might be pregnant by tomorrow!"
