Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

From that day on, Liu Maodong began to concentrate on studying medicine. He no longer pursued those unorthodox powers. On the contrary, he not only could not find the feeling he had when practicing the sorcery, but also felt disgusted with it.

He would only feel the patients' pain with his heart and use his medical skills to help them recover.

Xueyao supported him for a long time, and only felt relieved when she felt that there was no problem. She believed that Liu Maodong would become an excellent doctor and bring more benefits to the people of Liancheng.

Liu Maodong's medical skills were gradually recognized by people, and his reputation gradually spread throughout Liancheng.

More and more people began to seek his help, and he always did his best to treat their illnesses and never did things half-heartedly.

Once, a seriously ill patient was sent to Minsheng Clinic, and Liu Maodong was also present. It was then that she learned that the owner of Minsheng Clinic was Liu Maodong.

The patient's condition was very serious. Liu Maodong carefully studied his condition and came up with a treatment plan. After several days of hard work, the patient's condition was finally under control and he eventually recovered.

This incident made Liu Maodong more determined in his belief, and he knew that he had chosen the right path.

He was also deeply grateful for Xueyao's help and support. Without her, he might never have been able to give up his evil magic and rediscover his original intention.

Minsheng Medical Clinic became increasingly busy, but after Xue Yao's guidance, Manager Zhen, Mu Chongyuan, and several other employees who followed her became good doctors and could naturally handle the busy schedule.

Besides, there was Liu Maodong, who often lent a hand. He also began to take in apprentices to pass on his medical skills. He hoped that his medical skills could benefit more people and allow more people to enjoy a healthy life.

After the visit to Liancheng, Xueyao started on another matter.

When she first discovered the black energy in Liu Maodong's sea of consciousness, she had doubts. No matter what, she believed that Liu Maodong would not use any evil magic for no reason.

She must find a way to uncover the truth behind this.

She had set up a barrier around Liancheng, preventing evil spirits from entering. Unless something happened outside the city.

Sure enough, Xue Yao found out from Liu Maodong the reason why he practiced evil magic.

It turns out his family lives on the outskirts of the city. They've suffered an unexplained disaster that has left many of them gravely ill and incurable. To save his family, Liu Maodong risks his life by learning sorcery.

"Mr. Liu, how did you know that evil magic could save your family? And where did you learn it?" Xue Yao asked in confusion.

"I suddenly learned about a tribe member's illness and was anxious. I was just thinking of asking you for help," Liu Maodong recalled. "An elder from the tribe pulled me aside and said that a master had come to the village and had cured him."

Xue Yao heard him say, "Hearing this, my tribesmen and I were overjoyed, so we went to ask that expert to continue treating the rest of the tribesmen."

Xueyao didn't interrupt him, but just listened to him quietly.

"That man was dressed in black. He cured another person." He took a sip of tea, "but then he stopped curing. He said he had urgent matters to attend to and couldn't delay here. He asked us to nominate someone to teach this medical skill."

"You volunteered to step forward?" Xue Yao asked at this time.

"No, I was just thinking about standing up when everyone looked at me and someone pushed me out of the crowd."

"So, naturally, you began to practice the so-called medical skills."

"Yes, I didn't know it was witchcraft at the time."

"When did you know it was witchcraft?"

"After practicing for more than ten days," he said with a somewhat painful expression, "I suddenly realized that I had to practice when the time came, otherwise my head would feel like it was going to explode."

Xue Yao became more certain of what she was thinking. She seemed to be thinking about something and did not respond.

Liu Maodong paused, then continued, "Thank you, Miss Xueyao. If it weren't for your help, I would still be trapped in the quagmire of sorcery, unable to extricate myself."

"You're welcome. I believe in you. You will definitely go further and further in the right path of medicine." After learning the truth, Xue Yao felt deeply sympathetic towards Liu Maodong's experience.

Fortunately, she had helped him break free from the shackles of evil magic and return to the right path of medicine.

Xueyao still had a question in her mind: the true identity and purpose of the black-clad master. The black energy in Liu Maodong's sea of consciousness was the work of that person, which made sense.

She knew in her heart that such evil magic was not something that ordinary people could master, let alone teach others. There must be some unknown secret hidden behind it.

Although Liu Maodong had escaped the shackles of the evil spell, the experience still left a deep psychological scar on him. Xueyao knew that he needed time to slowly heal this trauma.

As the days passed, Liu Maodong's medical skills became more and more advanced, and the reputation of Minsheng Medical Clinic became more and more famous.

One day, Liu Maodong was out of town on business when he was approached by a mysterious figure who claimed to be a disciple of the black-robed master and had come to find Liu Maodong, hoping to study sorcery with him.

When Liu Maodong heard this, he immediately became alert. He knew that he had completely gotten rid of the evil magic and would never make the same mistake again.

He just said that he had some urgent matters to deal with and would come back in three days to give an answer.

After Xueyao learned about this, she decided to come forward in person. She felt that she was one step closer to the truth.

She concealed her cultivation and immortal aura, and even set up a barrier in her sea of consciousness, so that she would appear to be no different from an ordinary person in the eyes of those with some cultivation.

"Sir...can you teach me?" She ran to the mysterious man eagerly.

The mysterious man's eyes lit up. How could this woman be so beautiful?

"Teach you, teach you what?" His heart beat inexplicably faster and his words were not smooth.

"Magic, Young Master Liu said your master is very powerful." Xue Yao looked innocent, and Liu Maodong almost couldn't help laughing.

As agreed beforehand, Liu Maodong also agreed.

The two of them were blindfolded with black cloth, and then led by a mysterious man through several winding paths, and finally came to a remote courtyard.

There was an eerie atmosphere in the courtyard, and it was so quiet all around that even the wind didn't dare to blow easily.

"We're here." The mysterious man stopped and took off their blindfolds.

An ancient and gloomy palace appeared in front of Xue Yao and Liu Maodong. The door of the palace was closed tightly, as if hiding endless secrets.

The mysterious man pushed the door open and walked in, followed closely by Xue Yao and Liu Maodong.

The hall was dimly lit, with only a few flickering candles barely illuminating the surroundings.

The mysterious man walked to a huge stone platform, took out a yellowed book from his arms and handed it to Liu Maodong.

"This is the secret book of evil magic you want." The mysterious man said coldly.

Liu Maodong took the book and turned a page, only to see that it was covered with strange symbols and spells.

"This..." He frowned, and an inexplicable fear surged in his heart.

Xue Yao took the opportunity to carefully observe the mysterious man's actions and expressions, trying to find clues.

"Do you want to study witchcraft?" the mysterious man suddenly asked.

Xue Yao sneered inwardly, wishing she could poke the mysterious man into a sieve. Want? Do we want?

"Yes, we are very interested in this." Liu Maodong replied, his voice trembling slightly.

"Hmph, evil magic isn't as simple as you think." The mysterious man sneered, "It will come at a huge price, and may even cost you your life."

Xueyao's heart moved, and he was indeed waiting here.

She decided to take the opportunity to find out the mysterious man's true intentions.

"We are not afraid. As long as we can learn powerful spells, we are willing to pay any price." She said firmly.

A cunning gleam flashed in the mysterious man's eyes, and he seemed to be considering whether he should believe them.
