Chapter 129: 129: Merits (1)

Chapter 129: 129: Merits (1) The Yue Family, Su Rukia, Tan Bingyu, and Taiyang had returned to their home country before the end of the last week of the winter season. There is only one week left before Christmas arrives. However, the Christmas tradition in their country is relatively young. It is mainly celebrated as a commercial season instead of a religious day. As soon as they returned home to the Moonlight Lake Mansion, they all returned to their respective rooms and homes to rest. Taiyang returned home as what the Yue Family knew as for Su Rukia. She decided to stay two more days in the Yue family mansion and make final preparations to go home. She and Yue Ruxia had bought a lot of things, and there were lots of photos that needed to be printed and split among the group for safekeeping. The photos taken by them were all printed by the youngsters in the house, mainly Su Rukia and Yue Ruxia. After these photos were printed, Yue Jixia and Yue Xuexia, together with Papa Yue, Mama Yue, Tan Bingyu, and Taiyang, worked together to fill up those photo books as a souvenir. They also took a few days of rest at home until Su Rukia was finally sent back home by one of the bodyguards of the Yue family. Within those three days, Yue Xuexia had signed in and gotten a few more years of cultivation. This had helped her finally reach the foundation stage, like Tan Bingyu. Well, most of these cultivation years were used to transform her mortal body. On the third day of their return to the country, Yue Xuexia finally came out of the house and was seen by his parents, who were on their way to their greenhouses. Papa Yue asked, "Going out, Xue'er?" "Yes. Just a few delayed works that need to be accomplished before the end of the month," answered Yue Xuexia. Mama Yue asked, "Are you going home for Christmas and New Year?" "Don't worry, Ma. I will be home during those days. I will be going now!" said Yue Xuexia as she left the mansion and headed to the parking lot to get her sports car, a Bugatti La Voiture Noire. As soon as she entered the co-pilot's seat, Taiyang materialized in the air and appeared in the driver's seat. It was decided that today Yue Xuexia would help gather merits for the system and Taiyang. Yue Xuexia was wearing a semi-formal long, half-arm-length beige formal blouse and a long, plain coffee-colored plain skirt that reached below the knees, paired with three-inch pointed beige sandals. Yue Xuexia asked, "Before we leave, let me sign in for today first." [Ding! Congratulations! You had obtained Godly Tier Medical Skills!] said the system in her mind. Yue Xuexia was stunned, as she didn't expect to get another Godly Tier Skill without opening a skill scroll. But she immediately understood that today's mission must involve treating people. Moreover, Tan Bingyu had been called home today. Obviously, it was the doing of Taiyang, as he couldn't get Tan Bingyu involved with the mission from the system. Yue Xuexia asked, "Did the mission have something to do with me curing people?" [Yes, but they aren't ordinary people. They are chosen special ones with big merits yet on the path of death. By saving them, I would be able to receive some of their merits as payment, and these merits are very useful to us. Are you willing to do it, Xue'er?] "Of course! But I will not save bad people!" declared Yue Xuexia. Chuckles~ Taiyang said, "Silly~. Do you think bad people can receive some merits? Only people who did good to the world or for the millions of people can receive it. You also have a lot~. Your donations have saved millions or billions of people all over this country and the world." "Then I will give it all to you two. Take it away~" said Yue Xuexia. At this point, Shen Jueyang and Taiyang were dumbfounded. Even though they haven't explained the use of these merits to give it away verbally, it still caught them off guard. These are merits that will ensure you not only reincarnation after death but also give you a wealthy and good life for the next. Moreover, it is not easy to get these merits, as only those actions deemed by the heavens as right and justified will be given to each chosen individual. Taiyang said, "Stop joking around. Do you want to become a miserable beggar who is abused and thrashed in your next life, Xue'er!? You might even become a pig the next time you get reincarnated!" "Eh? Of course I don't. Who is a pig!? You are the pig!" retorted Yue Xuexia. Shen Jueyang explains, [Xue'er, merits are very precious. With it, you can ensure that your next life will be better than the current one. Moreover, every time I donate your money, I also take away half of your gain. This is already taking advantage of you. Also, merits can be exchanged with divine aura when you become a God someday.] "God? I don't think I can become one," Yue Xuexia mumbled. "Moreover, what do you mean you are taking advantage of? You guys saved me and my family. If not for you, we would still have to worry about food, shelter and everything else." Taiyang said, "Anyway, taking half is already something too much, even for us. It would cause you bad effects if we took away more. This mission we wanted your help with is also the same as gaining your merits. So, don't give away what you have left and just focus on helping us gather some merits from other people." "Okay, I will do it! So, where are we going?" asked Yue Xuexia. Taiyang and the system responded, "Your hospital." [Island Hospital] --- Taiyang drove to the airport where the charter jet was stationed, and they immediately flew towards the Island Hospital and Sanctuary Garden. This time, Yue Xuexia had fully used her identity as the Divine Doctor. Hospital Director Yi Guang happily welcomed her arrival. In front of the hospital on the island owned by Yue Xuexia, the owner and his subordinate met. Old man Yi Guang said, "Welcome, Mistress! It is very nice to see you again!" "Um. I have nothing to do and will walk in the hospital and check on some patients. I will choose a few to cure some people. Prepare me a doctor's white robe," said Yue Xuexia. At first, Hospital Director Yi Guang was speechless and frozen for a few minutes until his youngest disciple nudged him awake. "Master, wake up. The Mistress had been waiting for you to speak," whispered his young disciples to his ears. The old man, Yi Guang, shook his head and woke up. "Someone prepare a new white robe for the Divine Doctor!" "Yes, Director!" A few doctors run towards the hospital and scramble to find a white robe, but before they could react, Taiyang already pulled a special white robe and placed it over Yue Xuexia's shoulders. He said, "Wear this robe. It's a special robe only divine doctors can wear." Yue Xuexia wore a white robe that looked a bit ancient and was made from an unknown material. Moreover, wearing it blocks the heat from the sun that landed on her skin. After wearing the white robe, their group made their rounds. With Yi Guang escorting Yue Xuexia, they were greeted by patients and their relatives on the way. Suddenly, the system's voice resonated in Yue Xuexia's head, and she looked at the almost deserted and depressing hallway within the hospital. Yue Xuexia abruptly stopped at the entrance of this corridor. [Ping! Xue'er turn to the depart to your right. There are lots of people with merit in this location. You should also activate your appraisal skills just in case. There are also patients in this place who don't deserve to be saved, as their sins are unforgivable.] Yue Xuexia asked, "What department is this place?" As soon as she asked that, the talkative old director and his entourage of doctors suddenly became quiet. It was only when Yue Xuexia stared at them that Yi Guang spoke up. The old hospital director answered, "It's the hospice care department where most terminally ill patients reside." "I see," said Yue Xuexia as she walked in this direction without hesitation. Yi Guang and the other doctors looked at each other and didn't expect this to happen. "Director, what should we do? Can the Divine Doctor cure terminal diseases?" "That's impossible! She is not God! Believe in science!" Yi Guang said, "Shut up! Just follow after her for now!" An entourage of doctors entered the special department in the hospital. Most doctors didn't want to be assigned to this department, as they couldn't give a response to their patients and couldn't cure them at all. That made them feel useless as doctors. The diseases stationed at this location are mostly final-stage cancers. The type that can no longer be cured by medicine and can only accept hospice care at the end of life. But this is also the location with the most beautiful scenery on the whole island. Dying people would love it better to spend the rest of their remaining time in such a beautiful place before they die. Moreover, this is also a place for those retired militants who suffered from terminal diseases to rest. That's why the appearance of Yue Xuexia in this department was reported to Long Juedi, as she is a famous figure in elite society. Meanwhile, Yue Xuexia was walking as if she knew the way in this area. In fact, Shen Jueyang is guiding her in the right direction and finding the first patient with lost merits. She headed to the area tightly protected by soldiers, and as expected, she was blocked on her way towards her first patient. "Who are you!?" "This is a special room. You are forbidden to enter this area!" The soldiers holding guns looked at her with vigilance, but when they saw her white robe, they realized that she was a doctor. All of a sudden, Old Director Yi Guang and the rest of the doctors appeared behind her and officially introduced her to these soldiers. Hospital Director Yi Guang said, "You got it wrong! She is a doctor. This is our hospital's divine doctor. If you don't believe it, you can call the Head of State." Before the soldiers could check, Ling Wen suddenly came out of the room as he noticed the commotion outside. Cultivator Ling Wen asked, "Who is causing trouble? Can't you let the old state leader rest properly!?" Only when he turned around did Ling Wen notice Yue Xuexia. He was stunned and said, "Lady Yue!? Why are you here?" "I am here to treat the one inside. Let me in," said Yue Xuexia. Cultivator Ling Wen only thought for a moment and recalled her identity as the Divine Doctor. Moreover, like Long Juedi, he had seen the video of her curing her dying aunt. The treatment only took a few hours, and after a treatment from Miss Yue, her aunt was cured to the point where she is no different from a healthy person. Ling Wen bowed his head and said, "I will leave the old state head to the divine doctor." "Hm. Leave it to me. I choose only to cure three people a day, and the patients will be chosen by me. This place caught my eye. I will take the patient inside and try my best to treat him," said Yue Xuexia. Ling Wen smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Divine Doctor." Upon seeing the sight and the conversation between Ling Wen and Yue Xuexia, the soldiers bowed their heads and apologized. "Please forgive us for our rudeness, Divine Doctor!" "It's alright. You are just doing your job. Can you now open the door for me?" said Yue Xuexia. The two soldiers and Ling Wen opened a path for Yue Xuexia to enter. It is not appropriate for people to crowd inside a room full of advanced medical facilities. It was decided that only Ling Wen and Yi Guang would enter the room with her.
