“Thoroughly investigate his background!” The Patriarch of the Li Family roared, “Anyone connected to him, I want them to suffer a fate worse than death! Exterminate the nine generations beyond this, all must face the consequences!”
The martial artist guards of the Li Family surged out in a swarm.
“Patriarch, it seems the Lord's Residence is already involved in this matter. Should we...?” A goat-bearded man cautiously reminded.
“Prepare generous gifts, I will personally meet with the city lord! This matter will be resolved privately by our Li Family!” The Patriarch of the Li Family’s face was twisted in anger, “Revenge through official channels is never satisfying; I must personally deal with him!”
“Yes!”
…
Almost all factions were closely watching this small men's hall.
The opening a while ago had already attracted much attention, but that was due to the hall boldly claiming to treat the ailments of the ruler, which inevitably caused a huge uproar, albeit one taken lightly. However, this time the attention held a different meaning, or rather, it could be said that it was a true uproar, a genuine commotion.
In the hearts of some ordinary people or average martial artists, the creator of this incident, the legendary Chu Divine Doctor, was worthy of sympathy. His actions resonated with these individuals; he had done many things they wished to do but lacked the ability or courage to accomplish!
For many years, the three great families had acted tyrannically in Purple Cloud City; who had dared to speak up? Now, this person had avenged everyone's grievances and eliminated a great threat.
Naturally, everyone’s hearts leaned towards Chu Yang; yet they were powerless to assist him. All they could do was watch the developments with sadness and pity.
After a short rest, Chu Yang arrived at Yan Rushan’s room. Yan Rushan’s condition had improved significantly; upon seeing Chu Yang enter, he did not rise but nodded and smiled as a gesture.
“How are you feeling now? I estimate it will take a few more days to recover?” Chu Yang asked.
This question should have been answered by Chu Yang as the healer, but at this moment, it had turned into a question from him.
“It’s no longer a serious issue.” Yan Rushan replied with a smile, “I estimate that within ten days, I should be nearly fully recovered. Such injuries, as long as they can be treated, will heal quickly.”
Yan Rushan’s response was rather strange. It was almost as if he was the healer. If we were to consider the “I” in his reply, it would undoubtedly be a standard diagnostic prediction of a doctor.
The questioning and answering seemed to have flipped.
“That’s good.” Chu Yang smiled.
“Don’t you worry at all about what’s happening outside?” Yan Rushan looked at Chu Yang with an interesting gaze.
“Aren’t you not worried either? Since you’re not worried, what do I have to worry about!” Chu Yang laughed.
Chu Yang’s response seemed a bit disjointed, but it carried significant meaning; if Chu Yang were to suffer misfortune, how could Yan Rushan, who remained here to heal, be safe? Yan Rushan's lack of worry naturally stemmed from his confidence in Chu Yang; if even outsiders had faith in him, how could he lack confidence in himself?!
Yan Rushan laughed heartily. “That King’s Blade you brought back is quite interesting.”
Chu Yang suddenly raised his head, “Oh?”
Yan Rushan’s words caught Chu Yang off guard because he had not noticed any special martial talent in King’s Blade. The reason he had taken King’s Blade back was mostly due to feeling sorry for his unfortunate circumstances.
Especially now that the Li Family was raging with fury; while he was certainly their number one enemy, the instigator of this incident, King’s Blade, must have already been marked for death. In a moment of sympathy, he took this person in, yet he genuinely did not feel what was so interesting about that guy.
“You probably didn’t notice.” Yan Rushan smiled warmly, “This King’s Blade is quite a good talent for practicing with a blade. Although he’s starting somewhat late, as his body has already taken shape, I believe… once I recover, I can help you train him. It’s not too late; I believe that kid still has considerable development potential.”
