Chu Weixin glanced at the alliance leader, then shifted his gaze to Cang Luoyao, who was struggling to stand while holding onto the wall. Old Gu reached out a hand to support her, his face filled with anger.
"Even a tiger doesn't eat its own cubs. Lord Cang, don't you think you should do some self - reflection?" Shifting his gaze to Cang Nanyan, Chu Weixin said with a faint smile. When his eyes fell on the golden and jade tree in the latter's hand, his pupils darkened slightly. He looked up at Gu Rongxue, and Gu Rongxue happened to be looking at him too. When their beautiful eyes met, it seemed as if there were still some unresolved grudges between them.
"Doctor Chu, come and take a look at my two disciples quickly!" Leader Tong shouted eagerly as if he had seen a savior.
Chu Weixin withdrew his gaze, glanced at Leader Tong, then his eyes fell on Mu Lianyi, who was full of longing, and then on Chong Xiao, who also looked equally pitiful. With just one look, he said coldly, "I won't treat them."
Leader Tong's eyes almost popped out. He pointed at Chu Weixin but was speechless...
Mu Lianyi was so angry that she almost spat out blood. She was extremely annoyed in her heart, and Chong Xiao was no better. The two leaned against the wall, gasping weakly.
Island Master Tang and Elder Wei glanced at each other and shook their heads helplessly.
This doctor had a very strange temper. He basically refused to treat patients. One could say that unless he took the initiative to do so, even if others offered a fortune, they couldn't get his treatment.
Wei Feng stood up, bowed respectfully to Chu Weixin, and said in a low voice, "Please save Yuyan, Doctor. I will be extremely grateful."
Chu Weixin didn't dislike Tang Yuyan. He took a look at Tang Yuyan, who frowned slightly but wasn't impatient, and said with a faint smile, "One hundred thousand taels of gold."
"Okay." Wei Feng agreed immediately.
Whether it was the Tang family or the Wei family, one hundred thousand taels of gold was not a difficult amount to come up with. And the fact that the doctor was willing to accept money to treat the patient meant that he was willing to save her. Island Master Tang and Elder Wei both let out a sigh of relief and looked at Chu Weixin gratefully.
Chu Weixin handed over a small porcelain bottle. After Wei Feng took it, he nodded and hurriedly walked over to help Tang Yuyan up.
Tang Yuyan looked at Chu Weixin gratefully and smiled slightly. At the same time, she looked at Cang Luoyao, who was in great pain, with a look of pity in her eyes.
Su Xiaoliu looked at Tang Yuyan and knew that she and Cang Luoyao had known each other before.
Chu Weixin understood her difficulties and didn't make things hard for her. He said, "There are two antidotes in that bottle. You can decide who to give the other one to."
Without hesitation, Tang Yuyan stood up and walked towards Cang Luoyao. She fed the antidote into Cang Luoyao's mouth without a second thought.
Cang Luoyao's hazy consciousness gradually returned. She stared blankly at Tang Yuyan for a moment, and a glint of clarity suddenly flashed in her empty eyes, but it was only for an instant...
Old Gu looked at Cang Nanyan with a heart - wrenching expression, not knowing what to say.
Leader Tong looked at his two female disciples who were left neglected, but he didn't dare to provoke the doctor. He was both anxious and sighed.
Su Xiaoliu was almost fully recovered. She looked up at Chu Weixin and whispered, "Please save them just this once."
Chu Weixin squinted at Su Xiaoliu, curled his lips, and threw a small porcelain bottle to Leader Tong.
Su Xiaoliu stared at him blankly and forgot to say thank you for a moment...
Leader Tong looked at Su Xiaoliu gratefully and thanked Chu Weixin. He managed to save the lives of his two precious disciples.
Mu Lianyi felt extremely complicated at the moment. She was angry at both Su Xiaoliu and Chu Weixin, but now, she had been saved by both of them...
Chong Xiao was a bit more perceptive. She quickly thanked the two of them.
Cang Nanyan looked at Chu Weixin, who had suddenly appeared, and was extremely angry. He said slowly, "The doctor is really in a kind mood today. Saving everyone he sees."
Chu Weixin simply ignored him and looked at the Ghost King Nie, who was quietly watching everything. He said softly, "I was wondering why one of the 'Falling Petal Powders' was missing from me. So, it was taken by a certain 'thief'."
The Ghost King Nie looked up at him, remaining calm on the surface, but his dark - blue eyes flickered.
Su Xiaoliu looked at Jiang Li and Mo Xin who were walking over. Her gaze suddenly fell on the hairpin on Mo Xin's head.
The hairpin trembled gently in the dim candlelight. Its beautiful patterns and delicate butterfly seemed familiar...
Su Xiaoliu suddenly remembered the hairpin of Yun Ruo that Gu Rongxue had given her...
She was suddenly shocked. The hairpin was exactly the same as the one on Mo Xin's head!
Su Xiaoliu stared blankly at the butterfly hairpin on Mo Xin's head. It was exactly the same as the one Gu Rongxue had given her. Did Yun Ruo and Mo Xin know each other before?
After seeing Mo Xin, the alliance leader looked a bit dazed, as if lost in thought.
"This year's Pingshan Assembly is very different from previous ones. It's actually held in a cave." Jiang Li flashed a charming smile, glanced around, and then his eyes fell on the alliance leader.
Cang Nanyan, whose face was extremely ugly, didn't expect the sudden increase in the number of people. He sneered coldly and said, "The Northern Star Lord really has nothing better to do. He goes wherever there are people."
Jiang Li ignored his veiled sarcasm. He crossed his arms and leaned against the wall, with a smile on his lips but said nothing.
"Mrs. Xiao, we meet again." The Ghost King Nie, who had been silent not far away, suddenly said gloomily. Instantly, everyone looked at him.
When Mo Xin saw the Ghost King Nie, her face changed drastically. Her frail body trembled continuously. She said quietly, "Nie Jing, why are you here?"
Su Xiaoliu looked up at Zhong Fengyue, pursed her lips, and whispered, "Mr. Zhong, does Mrs. Xiao know Yun Ruo?"
Zhong Fengyue lowered his head and looked at her. His rosy lips curved into an alluring arc. He said with a soft laugh, "Them? They're family."
Family? Su Xiaoliu widened her almond - shaped eyes and forgot to react for a moment.
Zhong Fengyue knew she would react like this. He let out a soft laugh, shielded her behind him, and looked up at the alliance leader and the others. His eyes gradually turned cold.
If Yun Ruo's family came to the Pingshan Assembly, they would surely recognize that she was a substitute. What on earth was the alliance leader thinking? How could he so rashly introduce her to the public? Wasn't he afraid of being exposed?
The Ghost King Nie stared at Mo Xin and said slowly, "I'm taking her away." He looked at Su Xiaoliu, and his dark - blue eyes flashed a cold light.
Su Xiaoliu felt a chill run down her spine and didn't dare to look into his eyes. This man was really strange, as if he had a deep - seated hatred for her.
Mo Xin looked at Su Xiaoliu, then at the Ghost King Nie, and said lightly, "So much time has passed. Why can't you let it go?"
The Ghost King Nie remained silent and just stared at Su Xiaoliu quietly.
Su Xiaoliu didn't dare to raise her head and felt extremely uneasy. Fortunately, Zhong Fengyue was standing in front of her, giving her a bit of courage.
Mo Xin let out a soft sigh, shook her head, and said, "Stop pestering others. You'd better go back quickly..."
Su Xiaoliu carefully raised her head and looked ahead, feeling confused and unable to understand what they were talking about.
