Chapter 47: Utterly Incompetent

Before long, Qin Yu finally stopped what he was doing and let out a long breath.

“Is it really cured already?” Doctor Guo asked with a sneer, glancing at the instrument, which showed no changes.

“Yes, it’s cured. The patient’s heart disease was caused by blood blockage. I simply used silver needles to clear...” Suddenly, the twins summoned their spirits—a Gardevoir in a flowing white dress and a Gallade clad in striking attire.

Yet, secrets cannot be kept forever. The Ji family, being the foremost clan in Liang, was the focus of countless eyes. Though a gag order had been issued, rumors were inevitable. To prevent those with ulterior motives from sowing discord, Ji Mingxiu took his token and paid a visit to the imperial palace.

At this moment, Chushi took out her usual notebook and recorded the vocabulary and details Shang had just taught her.

Lan Yishi smiled helplessly, eating noodles as she watched the helicopter preparing to land in midair.

Qiu Qi, out shopping, wore an ordinary-looking watch rather than a sports one. Still, a sports watch seemed a good idea—the slogan was to encourage classmates to exercise more and stay healthy.

Shangguan Nuo didn’t pass the exam, and even if he had, he was far too busy—his entire focus was devoted to the research institute.

Xiu Yaru had the speaker on, so Ouyang Yi had already heard Ye Xiu’s words. He nodded at Xiu Yaru in response.

As the footsteps drew nearer, two faint figures gradually appeared in everyone’s view.

Ye You paused, touched the water left in the basin, and, as expected, realized the water was hot—he’d mistaken hot water for cold.

Scyther stared in disbelief at Gengar, but then the black shadow behind Scyther swallowed it whole. The agony was unbearable—Scyther could not help but shriek, feeling its scant strength slowly ebb away, until it collapsed helplessly to the ground.

Bai Yilan coughed twice and said quietly, “Miss Lan, didn’t you notice? He’s an imposter. He’s not Manchu and can’t understand the language!” Bai Yilan was exceedingly clever.

There was something wrong with Old Liu. He was surely planning to sneak to Spoon Valley late at night. What blood pact had he formed with that white spirit? Yesterday, the giant white python nearly swallowed him whole—why did he still trust that creature so much?

“Go! Kill those five bastards!” Huang Tiandao roared hoarsely at the people from the City Lord’s mansion nearby.

This phenomenon greatly improved Long Fei’s mood. Perhaps he could first deal with the giant python, and afterward, duel the great bird. Of course, if the three-legged golden crow didn’t interfere during the battle with the python, Long Fei might even spare its life when all was done.

He was anything but a fool; on the contrary, he was cleverer than anyone. Otherwise, he could never have survived in Jianghai City’s cutthroat environment. At the heart of this vortex of power, without the ability to judge the situation, one couldn’t last a day.

Seeing Su Mi’s look of shock and uncertainty, Mi Qing was not suspicious—after all, who in the world hadn’t heard of Master Kuye, the greatest monk of the Buddhist order?

Only then did Gu Yan breathe a sigh of relief. He’d suggested taking a break along the way, but Rabbit Lord had refused. Over the course of four hours, the three of them had flown tens of thousands of kilometers. Only now did Gu Yan truly comprehend the vastness of the Celestial Mechanism Secret Realm.

“With a man as outstanding as me by your side, you’d rather marry someone else? You really don’t know a good thing when you see it.” Wang Qi shook his head and sighed, feeling regretful over Ouyang Mengxin’s words.
