How The Little Medical Cultivator Saves the Furries – CH2

Chapter 2

“Little kitty, what’s wrong with you?”

Ye Yumeng carefully reached out, lightly touching its head with his fingertips.

The little calico didn’t respond. Its eyes were tightly shut, a faint whimper coming from its throat, looking extremely pained.

Its fur was a bit dull in color, but clean and smooth—clearly well cared for.

“Are you alright?”

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Yumeng still reached out and picked it up.

The kitten’s body was soft and fluffy, the touch reminding him of his former contracted beast, Xueqiu.

Xueqiu was a spirit rabbit, able to grow large or small. Though not high-ranked, it had been his most important companion.

Unfortunately…

Ye Yumeng shook his head, pulling his thoughts back.

With his leg in a cast, squatting was uncomfortable, so he simply leaned against the wall and sat down.

“Let me take a look at you.”

Holding the kitten, he examined it carefully, turning it over and over, before finally frowning.

He wasn’t a veterinarian and had no experience treating animals—he truly couldn’t tell what was wrong with the little one.

Of course, that didn’t mean he had no solution.

Ye Yumeng glanced around to make sure no one was nearby, then shifted slightly to avoid facing the surveillance cameras.

He placed the kitten on his lap and formed hand seals.

As his fingers moved, a faint green glow gradually appeared at his fingertips. Finally, he gently tapped the calico with his fingers.

Minor Rejuvenation Technique!

This was a relatively advanced healing spell, capable of restoring vitality, strengthening the body, and alleviating pain during the process.

With his current spiritual power, he could only use it once in a short period.

Under the effect of the spell, the kitten’s rapid breathing gradually calmed, and its vitality strengthened.

What Ye Yumeng didn’t notice was that the kitten’s tightly closed eyes had opened a slit at some point. It struggled to lift its gaze, secretly glancing at him.

As his spiritual energy ran dry, the glow of the spell slowly faded.

Only then did Ye Yumeng withdraw his power and exhale softly.

He picked up the kitten and checked it carefully, noticing a clear improvement in its condition. He couldn’t help but smile.

It seemed his medical skills worked on the lifeforms of this world as well… Thinking this, he felt even more confident about fulfilling the original owner’s wish.

Ye Yumeng tucked the kitten into his coat pocket, letting only its head peek out, then used his crutches to slowly stand up.

Just as he was about to return to his room, the elevator doors opened, and a somewhat familiar figure hurried into the corridor.

It was the blue-haired cool guy he had seen downstairs earlier!

To be precise, his hair wasn’t a pure blue, but a misty shade that faded lighter toward the ends.

It was the first time Ye Yumeng had seen such a color.

The young man paused briefly, then seemed to lock onto a target and rushed straight toward him.

“Your High—”

He stopped himself midway and changed his words: “Shanshan!”

Shanshan?

Ye Yumeng backed up in confusion, but with his limited mobility, he was quickly caught.

The blue-haired man grabbed his collar, his gaze fixed on the kitten peeking out of Ye Yumeng’s pocket.

“What did you do to him?” he demanded angrily.

Faced with the other man’s overwhelming height and muscular build, Ye Yumeng barely maintained his composure.

He wisely raised his hands to show he meant no harm.

“I didn’t do anything…” he explained. “It wasn’t in good condition, so I just checked it.”

Seemingly realizing the kitten was only asleep, the young man finally relaxed and released his grip.

“Then did you find out anything?”

Ye Yumeng shook his head.

The blue-haired man frowned but didn’t press further. He carefully took the kitten back into his arms.

Seeing him about to leave, Ye Yumeng hesitated before stopping him. “What proof do you have that it’s your cat?”

The young man froze for a moment, then looked at Ye Yumeng suspiciously.

“You’re from the Xihe Federation?”

Now it was Ye Yumeng’s turn to be stunned.

So he wasn’t from the Xihe Federation? Only then did Ye Yumeng realize the other was speaking the interstellar common language.

So… a zerg?

Seeing Ye Yumeng remain silent, the blue-haired man didn’t say more.

Holding the kitten in one hand, he flipped over the small tag on its collar with the other and showed it to him.

“Shan.”

That single character was engraved on it, matching the name he had called earlier.

“Is that its name?” Ye Yumeng asked.

The young man nodded. His expression had softened somewhat, though he still gave off a distant air.

“Sorry. And… thank you.”

Then he hurried away with the kitten.

Ye Yumeng watched his retreating figure, not stopping him again.

He didn’t mind the man’s attitude—after all, it was understandable to be anxious when trying to save one’s pet.

It was just…

The Minor Rejuvenation Technique could only temporarily restore vitality. If the root cause wasn’t found and cured, that little calico called Shanshan likely wouldn’t live long.

Ye Yumeng shook his head. He wasn’t a veterinarian, and with his current ability, he couldn’t fully heal it.

Leaning on his crutches, he slowly returned to his room.

—

Fifth floor, VIP suite.

Sheng Hao hurried back to the room, placing the kitten onto a soft mattress before fetching water and medicine.

“Your Highness, time to take your medicine…”

Carefully, he used a syringe to feed the kitten, watching nervously as it swallowed.

“So bitter…”

The little calico let out soft meows, which to Sheng Hao sounded like the most beautiful sound in the world.

Great—still able to act spoiled, so it should be fine!

Relaxing, Sheng Hao became gentler, finally coaxing the kitten to finish the medicine.

Watching it fall into a deep sleep, he stayed by the bedside, not daring to leave for even a moment.

Until the next day.

“Your Highness, it’s time to wake up and eat.”

When Sheng Hao spoke again, the kitten on the bed had already turned into a small boy.

With blue hair and blue eyes, he looked about five or six years old—small, frail, with a pale, sickly face.

He rubbed his eyes with tiny fists and murmured softly, “I’m not hungry yet…”

Suddenly remembering something, he quickly sat up and looked around.

“Where’s that big brother?”

Hearing this, Sheng Hao recalled yesterday’s events and grew serious.

“Your Highness, do you remember our agreement before leaving the country? On the way to the Medical Planet, you must follow my arrangements and not run around.”

“The Yaojin Empire is not like our kingdom. If you wander off, it’s very easy to run into danger.”

They came from the Lanxi Kingdom, boarding this ship to seek treatment on the Yaojin Empire’s Medical Planet.

Though the boy’s tag only bore the character “Shan,” his real name was Shan Lan.

Because of his exceptionally pure blue hair, he had been highly anticipated since birth.

To have “Lan” in his name was rare even within the Lanxi royal family—enough to show how favored he once was.

Unfortunately, from the age of two, his health declined day by day. In the end, due to his frailty, he fell out of favor with the king.

Thus, for this journey to seek treatment, only Sheng Hao accompanied him.

Yesterday, Sheng Hao had gone out to fetch food. When he returned, the room was empty.

After failing to find him, he panicked and rushed to the staff to check surveillance footage.

Fortunately, nothing had happened to the young prince—otherwise, Sheng Hao would have had no face left to live.

Shan Lan lowered his head guiltily.

“I didn’t run around… I just suddenly felt really uncomfortable, so I went out to look for you. Who knew…”

As soon as he entered the elevator, his body couldn’t hold on and transformed into his beast form. When the doors opened, he staggered out in a daze.

In the end, he couldn’t endure it and hid in a corner.

Hearing this explanation, Sheng Hao felt his heart ache. He quickly pulled the boy into his arms, gently stroking the back of his head.

“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have left you alone… Once we reach the Yaojin Empire’s Medical Planet, your illness will definitely be cured!”

Shan Lan leaned against his shoulder and nuzzled him affectionately.

When Sheng Hao let go, the child asked again, “Did you ask that big brother’s name?”

“…”

Seeing Sheng Hao shake his head, the boy puffed up his cheeks unhappily.

“Why didn’t you ask?”

So annoying!

But since it was Sheng Hao, he couldn’t really get mad…

“Is there something special about him?” Sheng Hao asked.

At the time, he had only been focused on getting the young prince back to take his medicine and hadn’t thought to ask.

“I felt very comfortable staying near him. I suddenly didn’t feel bad anymore, and… he’s really pretty!”

The boy’s eyes sparkled. “I like that big brother!”

Sheng Hao couldn’t help but pat his head reassuringly. “It’s alright. He’s also on this ship.”

“There’s still at least a month of travel ahead. We’ll definitely run into him again. We can ask his name then.”

“Mm!” Shan Lan nodded happily. “I also need to thank him for saving me.”

Ye Yumeng, of course, knew nothing about their conversation.

It was now breakfast time. He was eating in the cafeteria, sharing a table with three others.

He had just met them this morning—they were likely his future colleagues.

It was said that the Yaojin Medical Planet had recruited six people from the Xihe Federation this time, and the remaining two were also on this ship.

The one sitting across from him was named Gan Xiaoyang, a graduate of the Capital Medical University of the Xihe Federation, majoring in nursing.

Not only were his grades excellent, but he also had an outgoing and enthusiastic personality.

He was the one who first struck up a conversation with Ye Yumeng. After learning that he was also heading to the Medical Planet for work, he invited him to eat together and introduced the others.

All of Ye Yumeng’s knowledge of this world came from the original owner.

To avoid saying something wrong, he remained relatively quiet during the meal, simply listening carefully to their conversation.

At this moment, Gan Xiaoyang suddenly asked mysteriously, “By the way, have you guys looked into the Yaojin Empire before?”

“Have any of you seen what their emperor looks like?”
