System Bestows me with Immortality, Living on to Eventually Become Invincible

Today marks the end of another year, and Panning City is as bustling at night as it was when they first arrived.

Chen Xun's eyes gleamed with curiosity as he strolled down the streets with Black Bull, pausing here and there, his hands filled with various foods. Now that they had money, it was natural to indulge a little.

They shared their treats, taking turns with each bite, eliciting laughter from the onlookers who found the young man quite amusing.

However, this time there was a slight mishap. During a street performance, Chen Xun couldn't pull Black Bull away until the show was over and the bull was content.

Black Bull always believed that the cultivators were performing just for them, watching intently with continuous low moos of fascination.

"Do you remember us, boss?"

Approaching a stall, Chen Xun smiled slightly, "We've come to buy some wood carvings."@@novelbin@@

What was different this time was a child sitting next to the vendor, playing with a wood carving, and the stall had moved, though not far from its original spot.

"Eh, young man, it's you!"

The vendor paused, then had a flash of recognition, remembering the youth who had traded rice for his wood carvings, "You haven't changed a bit."

"Do you have any ox wood carvings? We'll take two."

"Sure thing!"

With a smile, the vendor rummaged through his wares and found two lifelike ox carvings, flawless in every way, and handed them to Chen Xun, "Here you go, young man."

After paying, Chen Xun teased Black Bull with the carvings, causing the bull to become impatient, and Chen Xun laughed heartily.

They went to the riverside to release Wishing Lanterns again, and Black Bull wouldn't let Chen Xun see his wish, blocking his view with his entire body.

Chen Xun led Black Bull towards the southern part of Panning City, where many medical halls were located. The blacksmith's shop was in the north, but it was too far away, taking days to reach on foot.

Two days later, they arrived at a shop with a sign reading "Pingtai Medical Hall," flanked by a couplet.

The upper line read: "Wishing all people free from harm," the lower line: "No need for dust to settle on the medicine shelf," and the horizontal inscription: "Peace under heaven."

The medical hall was busy with people coming and going, all wearing looks of concern. Doctor Ning's reputation was excellent here, and the locals referred to him as a life-saving healer.

Inside, the assistants were bustling about, dispensing medicine to visitors, while several doctors were busy treating the sick and injured, with cries of pain occasionally piercing the air.

"Bull, I'll go in and check things out. I'll tie you up outside. You're big enough now; you need to learn to protect yourself."

Chen Xun spoke seriously, "If a stranger tries to lead you away, you must bellow and kick them, but not too hard."

"Moo!"

Black Bull nodded, giving Chen Xun a reassuring look, as if to say, "I know my strength."

"What do you need, young man?" an assistant casually greeted.

"I'm looking for Ning Si, Doctor Ning."

Chen Xun bowed slightly, having heard that Ning Si was the owner here, known for his kind nature and compassionate heart, widely praised by the locals.

"Young brother, were you looking for me?"

Ning Si emerged from another hall, his long, lush black hair tied up, sporting a goatee, his eyes filled with a melancholic depth, a man in his middle years.

However, to Chen Xun, this man seemed well-versed in self-care, likely older than he appeared.

"Doctor Ning, I've come to learn medicine."

Chen Xun bowed, and as he did, his sleeve slipped, revealing his toned muscles, causing Ning Si's eyelids to twitch at the sight of such a robust physique.

"Heh, I'm not taking disciples at the moment. You might want to try elsewhere, young brother."

Ning Si spoke calmly, indicating he had no intention of taking on students just yet.

"Doctor Ning, I'm sincerely here to learn medicine and I'm willing to endure hardships."

Chen Xun's eyes were filled with hope, pleading earnestly, "Even if it's just menial work, as long as I can learn."

"Sigh."

A struggle flashed in Ning Si's eyes, and suddenly, outside, there was a loud mooing. Everyone was startled, and a gust of wind blew as Chen Xun dashed out.

Such agility! Ning Si admired, quickly following to see what had happened.

"Ah, this stubborn black bull of mine, just can't be moved."

A ruffian chuckled to the onlookers, his face sour, experiencing for the first time what it meant to be as strong as a bull.

Moo! Moo!

Black Bull bellowed angrily, about to lift its hoof when it saw Chen Xun coming out and immediately cried out.

"What are you doing?! This is my bull!"

Chen Xun's eyes bulged with fury as he shouted, "Let go!"

"You say it's yours, and it's yours?"

The ruffian sneered, sizing up Chen Xun, just a naive young man.

"So you mean to say you don't want to reason?"

"Ha, ridiculous, this is my Black Bull, and you think you can lay a hand on it?"

The ruffian spat, let go of the rope, and slowly rolled up his sleeves, even taking out a dagger to flaunt.

He had ruled this street for years, dealing with a greenhorn was child's play.

"Everyone heard that, right? This man is unreasonable."

Chen Xun frowned slightly, shouting to the bystanders, inadvertently revealing the three mountain-axing axes at his waist.

The ruffian's steps faltered, his pupils contracted, big weapons indeed, what was this situation.

Chen Xun stepped forward, slowly unbuttoning his shirt, revealing his sixteen-pack abs, his body as if forged by a thousand hammers, incredibly strong.

Whispers of awe rose from the crowd; the young man who seemed ordinary was actually a martial artist.

"Wait! Young brother, I just realized I was mistaken, this isn't my bull, heh... heh."

The ruffian's pupils trembled, overwhelmed by the young man's ferocity, he began to back away, realizing he had hit a wall, "I'll go first... I'm leaving."

"Go to hell, looking for a beating!"

Chen Xun suddenly roared in anger, charging forward with such speed that only a shadow remained, his fist the size of a sandbag reflected in the ruffian's eyes.

"Ah!! Grandpa, stop hitting me!!"

The street echoed with the ruffian's screams, rolling on the ground, begging for mercy, while Black Bull spat beside him, eventually sending him flying with a shove.

The ruffian's eyes were filled with despair, his body broken, his mouth and nose bloody, reeking of saliva.

This young man with sixteen-pack abs, an iron fortress of a body, even if he called for his brothers, it would be useless, he could only take a beating, and from now on, he'd steer clear of this person.

"Well done!"

"That ruffian deserved it!"

"Doing nothing all day but loitering, I've always disliked him."

...

The surrounding people cheered, a hero in his youth, doing what they dared not do.

Chen Xun snorted coldly, daring to touch Bull, if they sought revenge, he would not hesitate to unleash a massacre.

Moo! Moo! Black Bull nudged Chen Xun, feeling at peace only by his side.

"It's okay, Bull, I'm here."

Chen Xun cradled Black Bull's head with one hand, his gaze icy as he watched the direction the ruffian fled.

He suddenly turned to Ning Si, making him shiver; this young man carried three mountain-axing axes, had sixteen-pack abs, was he really here to learn medicine...

"Please take me in, Doctor Ning. Let us do menial work at Pingtai Medical Hall, and my ancestral Black Bull can help too."

Chen Xun bowed his head, his words heavy with sincerity.

Moo! Moo! Black Bull too seemed to plead with Ning Si.

"Doctor Ning, take him in. Such a righteous young man is rare."

"Yes, Doctor Ning, this young brother is pitiable, coming to the city with his family's bull to make a living."

...

The bystanders also spoke up for Chen Xun, who clearly looked like someone with a hard life.

"Alright, I'll take you in."

Ning Si nodded, going with the flow. The young man did seem pitiable, and it was better to have him inside the medical hall than outside at the mercy of the ruffians; no one would dare touch him there.

"Thank you, Doctor Ning." Chen Xun was overjoyed, bowing to the surrounding people, expressing his gratitude for their support.

"Let's go."

Ning Si smiled, hands behind his back, leading them into the back courtyard of the medical hall.
