1406 Maybe I Can Try! (1/2)

Mu Feng was getting impatient. ”I think you look quite healthy.”

”It… It is a hidden disease. I hope that you can examine me…” He begged very hard and went extremely close to Mu Feng.

Mu Feng suddenly smelled a familiar fragrance. He was stiff and turned to look at Master Yang. Master Yang looked slightly fatter now. He had small eyes and a little nose. In fact, he seemed rather ugly. At this moment, his small eyes were locked onto Mu Feng's, and it was shining as though he had an idea.

Mu Feng coughed and still looked cool. ”Give me your hand.”

Master Yang took out his hand and allowed Mu Feng check on his pulse.

Master Yang could feel his cold and slightly shaking fingertips.

After a moment, he slowly let go of his hand and looked at Master Yang. ”You have overthought and caused yourself to worry unnecessarily. The stress has caused your heart and liver to be injured...” He continued with a bunch of technical terms.

Master Yang nodded. ”Mr. Mu Feng is indeed an expert when it comes to medical knowledge. Do you have any way to heal my disease?”

Mu Feng said, ”I can give you a prescription. You need to find the herbs and cook them according to my instructions.”

He got a paper from out of nowhere and wrote down a prescription. Just as he was about to give it to Master Yang, he heard a voice from behind him. ”What is wrong with Master Yang?”

Everyone looked back together and saw the fake Celestial Master Zuo who was standing in the shadows. He was looking directly at them.

Master Yang smiled apologetically and told him about his symptoms. He explained to him that Mu Feng was giving him a prescription to cure his disease.

The fake Celestial Master Zuo took out his hand. ”I also literate in medical knowledge. Let me examine the prescription.”

Mu Feng handed the prescription to him. The fake Celestial Master Zuo looked at it for a moment. The herbs on the prescription were not too complicated and mainly consisted of the more common ones. He read the prescription for a while and did not see any problem with it, so he passed the paper back to Master Yang. ”It seems okay. Master Yang, you may cook the herbs and consume them according to the prescription.”

After Master Yang and the others had left, the fake Celestial Master Zuo glanced at Mu Feng and saw that he was still standing there and looking down. However, there was nothing unusual with him.

He slowly said, ”Mu Feng, I am hungry. Go and catch a fish for me.”

”Okay.” Mu Feng answered without hesitation. He turned and jumped into the big lake next to him.

It was now very late at night. The water in the lake was quite cold, and there were numerous spirits inside the lake. They were most active during midnight.

The lake only produced one kind of fish. It was an incredibly fierce fish to eat for a living. The fish usually lived at the bottom of the lake. Its body was very slippery, and it was challenging to catch them.

The spirits and fishes that were living in the lake were terrifying and active during the middle of the night. Mu Feng, who had jumped into the lake, was undoubtedly an excellent food for the fish and the spirits. The lake started trembling like boiling water.

Mu Feng reappeared from the water 15 minutes later. His hand was holding a big fish, and his body was bitten so severely to the extent that it was bleeding. His clothes had been frozen as if he was covered with an ice armor.

The water was cold due to the Yin atmosphere. It was different from the usual coldness. The lips of Mu Feng were ashen. Just as he was about to come out from the water after he had caught a fish, the fake Celestial Master Zuo slowly said, ”This fish is too small. Go and catch a bigger one.”

”Okay!” Mu Feng answered, and he immediately plunged back into the water without saying another word.

The water began trembling again, and blood started appearing on the surface of the lake. It might be the blood from Mu Feng or the fish.

”What are you doing?” The fake Celestial Master Zuo was standing beside the lake watching when he heard a voice from behind him.

He looked back and realized that it was Fairy Queen Li who stood behind him.

”The fish in this lake are very nutritious. I want to catch one and make soup with it as a supplement to my body.”

Fairy Queen Li bit her lips. ”The fish in this lake are not delicious… Are you trying to test his loyalty? Don't worry. Anyone who is affected by the mind manipulation spell will be very loyal to his master. You don't have to do this to test him.”

The fake Celestial Master Zuo laughed and denied. ”I think that the fish are delicious…”

Fairy Queen Li sounded cold. ”The time whereby the spirits are most active is during the middle of the night. Even if you and I go down into the lake, we won't be able to resurface without being hurt too. Do you want to solve your curiosity by asking him to swim around inside the lake? It seems like you are not very confident with my skill.”

The fake Celestial Master Zuo did not want to offend her. He barely smiled and said, ”You have overthought. Well, I don't feel like eating the fish anymore. Mu Feng, come out!”

After a moment, Mu Feng came out of the water. He was freezing, and his body was full of blood which made him looked a bit scary. Though he wanted to get up to shore, it seems like he had suffered significant injuries and was currently unable to do so.

The fake Celestial Master Zuo lifted his hand and his sleeve extended to help Mu Feng out from the lake.

Mu Feng was entirely frozen and could not stop shaking. However, he was still holding the fish tightly and bowed to the fake Celestial Master Zuo. ”Master.”

The fake Celestial Master Zuo looked uninterested. ”I don't want to eat the fish anymore. Let the fish escape back into the water.”

”Okay!” Mu Feng looked down at the fish that he caught with a lot of effort before releasing the fish back into the water.

The fake Celestial Master Zuo carefully observed his face. Although Mu Feng looked very pale, he did not look angry after being fooled by him.

Finally, he was satisfied. He threw him a bottle of pills. ”Eat the pill and meditate for six hours. It can help to cure the poison effect which is causing you to feel chilly.”

Mu Feng thanked him and took the bottle from him.

Fairy Queen Li smiled. ”I never imagined that he would be as obedient to you like a dog.”

Celestial Master Zuo held her hand. ”It is very windy here…”

Fairy Queen Li's face slightly changed. She lifted her sleeve to push the fake Celestial Master Zuo away and coldly said, ”Talk properly. Don't touch me!” She then turned and walked away.

The Fake Celestial Master Zuo looked at her back, and his face changed. He slowly clenched his fist. What a prudish! You are just a banished person from the heavens. Do you think you are the master of this world? Hump!

...

Mu Feng slowly headed back to his house. Although he looked calm, his heart was pumping very fast!

My Lord! The Lord had returned!

He finally saw hope! The hard times were finally going to be over!
