Chapter 2 The Young Master (1/2)

In Wang Ling's Courtyard.

”Physician Mo, Alchemist Yu, what do you think?”

Butler Sun anxiously asked as his body trembled from agitation.

This old man who looked like his eyes were about to pop out of their sockets was named Sun Wu. He's the butler of the Wang family and the one who oversee Wang Ling's daily activities.

Although Wang Ling was waited by Wang Yue, she was still instructed by Sun Wu.

With two experts examining the thin and fragile looking body of Wang Ling, Sun Wu prayed for the best.

Waiting for the results of the examination, he felt someone tugging on the side of his robe. Looking down, he saw Wang Yue who was also waiting for the result of Wang Ling's examinations.

”Is Young Master Wang Ling going to be alright?”

She asked with her soft voice slightly quivering. Fearing that she might trouble the two doctors, Wang Yue chose to whisper her words.

Seeing this young lady quiver, Sun Wu showed a smile full of warmth as he answered.

”It's going to be alright, Young Miss Yue. If what you said is true, then the young master should be getting better.”

Wang Yue showed a pure smile to Sun Wu.

”Then, Foster Father will be greatly please when he receive this news.”

Her voice was made to be as soft as possible, but the joy behind it cannot be denied.

This young girl who happened to be Wang Ling's current little maid was actually her little sister. Although she was only adopted by the Wang family, Wang Yue was treated as an actual child of the family.

Her background was unknown for she was found in the South, alone. At the tender age of three, when Wang Yue didn't even have the capability of surviving alone. She was left in the Southern Army Garrison.

As for how she was adopted by the Wang family, that's a complete story altogether because it was actually the General's wife who decided to adopt her.

Either way, If not for Wang Shu Qing, there was a good chance that she'd be dead by now. So it was only normal for her to feel gratitude for her benefactor and parents.

It took some time before Physician Mo and Alchemist Yu could finish their examination on Wang Ling. Both their faces held apprehensive looks, as if they had been presented by something incomprehensible making Sun Wu feel even more anxious.

”Is there any problems? What's the condition of the Young Master?”

Sun Wu asked the two.

The two old great doctors shook their heads. The two of them were high ranking people on their own rights, but they were left unprepared when presented to Wang Ling.

Beads of perspiration could be seen on Physician Mo's forehead as for Alchemist Yu, his hands were slightly trembling.

Sun Wu saw their odd reactions and could not help but think on the darker side of things.

”Is the young master's condition… worsening?”

Hearing Sun Wu's questions, the two doctors quickly denied what Sun Wu said.

”No, no, Butler Sun no such thing happened. In fact, there doesn't seem to have any change on his body.”

Physician Mo quickly interjected. Hearing him Sun Wu cursed inside his mind.

[Then, why the hell do you have such a looks on your faces?

If there's no problem then the best you can do was to keep your usual indifference.

From your previous looks, I thought the young master was already dying.]

Sun Wu said a lot of things in his mind, but he did not dare say them out loud. These two old farts were the greatest men on their crafts in the entire Kingdom, they're even regarded highly by the emperor so he did not dare offend them.

”Then how is the young master, Physician Mo? Can you please check up on him once more?”

The sudden question came from Wang Yue. Oblivious to the fact about the duos position in the Kingdom, Wang Yue made a request. Sun Wu who was beside her was unable to stop her from speaking so he chose to keep silent and show that he was siding with the little miss.

Either way, this is what he was also wanted to happen.

Worried for her brother's condition, Wang Yue could not help but blurt out the request.

”This…”

Physician Mo's face darken and took in a deep breath first before directing his gaze to Wang Ling then getting closer to him. The instant he did, the invisible pressure assailed him once more.

[Just what the hell is this indescribable pressure? This crippled brat in front of me, shouldn't any cultivation, yet, I am feeling intimidated?

This is the second time this happened!!

Did you have to ask me little girl?]

He cursed out in his heart.

This was the actual reason why he had perspiration all over his body and was unable to get a better look on Wang Ling's current condition. Every time he wanted to get closer to Wang Ling, an unknown pressure always bores down upon his body and scares the shit out of him.

Alchemist Yu saw him acting like so and thought to himself.

[So it wasn't just me.

Thankfully, Young Miss Yue didn't ask me for me.]

Heaving a sigh of relief, Alchemist Yu silently thanked Wang Yue in his old heart.

Wang Ling had his pulse checked.

Even with the pressure boring upon him was heavy, Physician Mo move fluidly and struck the Neiguan acupoint with a silver needle. The silver needle was filled with spirit qi, which he used to survey Wang Ling's body.

(Neiguan Acupoint – located in your inner arm near your wrist)

After double checking Wang Ling's body to be fine and truly did not have any kind of complications. Right then, as if by some magic, the unknown pressure magically disappeared.

[The pressure's gone!]

With the pressure gone, Physician Mo's every movements became less stiff. He became more efficient and before long, he was able to finish the examination on Wan Ling's both inner and outer body.
