”His pulse is steady. Actually, it's steadier than before. Judging from this symptom, old Lord's condition is better than the last time I felt his pulse. Did old Lord show any special symptoms a couple of days ago? Or did you have another doctor treat him?”
Cloud Murong gave him a general account of what happened a few days ago.
After hearing his words, Medic Chen kept silent for a while and then raised his head and said to Cloud Murong, ”Your Lordship, I have no idea what kind of disease old Lord caught. I feel really shamed. But that bleeding therapy you mentioned seemed to be helpful in reducing the swelling of old Lord's body. I suggest Your Lordship might as well invite that doctor here to treat old Lord.”
On hearing Medic Chen's words, Sword Murong and the other elders knitted their eyebrows.
Others waiting outside the courtyard exclaimed in amazement.
Even Medic Chen couldn't treat this pestilence. Was that old woman really the only one who could treat it?
However, right at this moment, a guard hurriedly rushed over.
”Your Lordship, an offshoot mansion sent a message here, saying that people of Ouyang Mansion in Water City went to Lian Village to invite Grandma Medicine.”
In the room, Cloud Murong was stunned.
The frown of Sword Murong and the others creased deeper and their faces went somewhat sullen.
It seemed that people of Ouyang Mansion in Water City immediately took action after receiving the news.
However, to others' surprise, Cloud Murong was expressionless and made no response, which made Sword Murong and the others become somewhat inexplicably anxious.
Especially Sword Murong.
He was the one who evicted Grandma Medicine from Murong Mansion by using the authority of his identity of an elder, so at this moment, he was the last person who should talk.
However, Cloud Murong, who was the most suitable person to make a decision, chose to keep silent at this moment.
”Your Lordship, given that there are so many elders infected, maybe we should invite Grandma Medicine back–”
However, before that person could finish his sentence, Cloud Murong said in a deep voice, ”Fifth Uncle, they've already been evicted from Murong Mansion. Naturally, I can't disobey Third Uncle and invite her back. Any further discussion on this issue is unnecessary. Let Medic Chen feel your pulse. I'll go check on my father.”
After saying this, he walked inside the room.
Hearing his words, all the others present moved their eyes onto Sword Murong.
Sword Murong's face was rather cold and sullen.
He was one of those whose family status was the highest in Murong family. Was he supposed to admit his mistake at this moment?
If he did that, wouldn't it cause disastrous damage to his dignity and authority?
...
Outside that cottage in the valley.
Yun Wu was leisurely lying on a shabby rocking chair with her eyes closed, enjoying the tranquil afternoon and waiting for the big bait to come to her on its own account.
However, all of a sudden.
Yun Wu abruptly opened her purple eyes, a piercing and cold look flashing across the bottom of her eyes.
She produced a sword as she stood up from the chair, eyes sweeping around the woods.
It was still quiet.
But that familiar undulation in the air failed to escape her sharp intuition.
Killing aura!
A kind of well-hidden but bloodcurdling killing aura.
She sensed extreme danger.
She developed this intuition in her last incarnation after killing numerous people and undergoing countless trials. It had never failed her.
However, right at this moment, a cold laugh came from amid the woods. In the blink of an eye, a middle-aged man in black appeared on the top of a tree, standing steadily with the tip of his foot on a leaf.
”Ha-ha. It seems that you little girl are not bad. You detected our existence.”
”Swish!”
After a breeze through the woods, another black figure weirdly appeared on the top of another tree, haughtily looking down at Yun Wu.
”But it's really a prostitution of our talents to send us both here to deal with this little girl,” in his tone, there was arrogance and scorn commonly found in most powerful people.
Composed, Yun Wu looked at the two assassins who had suddenly turned up, her heart sinking.
Because, judging from the undulation she had just detected, these two people probably had broken through into the rank of Grand Assassin.
As far as she remembered, even Grand Kung Fu Masters were fairly rare in the whole Zhou Kingdom.
But here, two Grand Assassins appeared at the same time.
However, when Yun Wu saw the special symbols on their clothes, a cold killing aura involuntarily started spreading outwards from her.
”You're members of Dragon Clan?”
Dragon Clan was an organization subordinate to the incumbent Queen, so who sent them here was very obvious.
It was just that the Queen shouldn't have known she was Yun Wu from Yun Mansion. Why did she send people to kill her again and again?
Hearing her words, Nineteen lifted his eyebrows and looked at Yun Wu with a sneer on his face, ”You little girl actually know that we're from Dragon Clan. No wonder master wanted to... ”
However, he broke off in the middle of a sentence.
It was probably because he realized that he was talking too much.
”You know too much, little girl. Be cooperative and we'll make your death quick and clean,” Eighteen said in a deep, cold voice.
