Tianxuan Royal City, deep within the Du Clan's residence.
Beside the quiet pond, a middle-aged man walked out of the room with a cup of herbal tea.
Every day after lunch, he had a habit of drinking herbal tea!
This was the time when he was the most relaxed. He had already ordered that no one was to disturb him, not even his own son.
He was once the dazzling genius of the Profound Sky Continent's Du Family, the strongest contender for the Patriarch's position. But now, he was just an ordinary elder.
Du Miaoxuan, Du Yuan's father!
Even though he was gravely ill, his cultivation had plummeted, and he had been suppressed by the other branches to the point that he no longer had his prestige. Even if a tiger died, it would not fall. No one dared to disobey his orders, and during this period of time, no one came to disturb him.
"I can still control the situation now. Once I die, this branch will definitely be expelled. If it really doesn't work … I'll let Yuan-er leave the family first! I don't want to be implicated! "
He leaned back on the recliner and closed his eyes.
It seemed like there were still people listening to him now, but that was because the other party felt that he no longer had the qualifications to compete and was giving him face. Once he died, or the old man above him abdicated, their branch would definitely not be able to hold on any longer and would collapse.
Great Clans might seem impressive to outsiders, but in reality, the internal strife within them was not inferior to the internal strife within the palace. The slightest bit of carelessness could lead to death and eternal damnation.
"Father, father …"
Just as she calmed herself down and began to think about what to do next, an anxious voice called out. Then, she saw her profligate son rushing over anxiously, unable to conceal the agitation in his heart.
"Didn't I tell you not to disturb me at this time?"
Du Miaoxuan's face darkened.
"Father …"
Du Yuan froze for a moment before remembering that this was the time when his father was resting alone.
"Get out!"
"Oh …"
Seeing that his father was enraged, the words that Du Yuan was about to say got stuck in his throat. He turned around and walked out.
"Hold on. Why are you looking for me so urgently? Is something the matter?" After taking a sip of the herbal tea, the anger in Du Miaoxuan's heart dissipated. Lying flat on the chair, his eyes were half-closed.
"It... It was a master teacher from the capital who treated Ling Tianyu's wife's illness in a single move. I think... Wasn't father injured before? Can we also look for him … "
Lowering his head, he revealed the news that he had just heard. Before he could finish his words, he sensed that something was amiss with the atmosphere. Lifting his head, he nearly fell to the ground.
Unbeknownst to him, his father, who was lying on the chair a moment ago, was now standing in front of him. His eyes were as wide as a gong and his body was trembling non-stop. The herbal tea in his hand had spilled all over the floor, but he didn't seem to notice it at all.
"Father …" Zhang Xuan turned to look at Zhang Xuan.
"Father what father? What did you just say? A master teacher came to the capital? "
Grabbing Du Miaoxuan's shoulders, Du Miaoxuan was no longer as calm as before.
"I saw it with my own eyes, it's absolutely true …"
Du Yuan hurriedly told him what he knew.
Actually, he knew about his father's situation. Due to his severe illness, his meridians were blocked. Every afternoon, his father would lose control of his zhenqi, causing him to be in a predicament.
He was afraid of being discovered, so he said that he had the habit of drinking tea in peace.
It was actually a cover.
"Father, given the means of that master teacher, should we go and take a look?"
After recounting what he had seen and heard, Du Yuan couldn't help but ask. However, before he could finish his words, his usually calm father was already standing more than ten meters away. As he walked, he shouted, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go pay respect to that master teacher …"
"…" It took Du Yuan a long while before he could react, "Father, your shoes …"
Previously, his father had removed his shoes and was sitting on the chair. Now, he wasn't wearing them and his clothes weren't even tidied up … He turned around and left … One must know that he was a strict person and he couldn't stand seeing others being sloppy …
"Oh …"
Hearing that his father wasn't wearing shoes, Du Miaoxuan hurriedly put them on and walked out with widened strides. Only after walking out of the courtyard did he suddenly recall something. He turned around abruptly and asked, "Right, where does the master teacher you spoke of live?"
"…"
Du Yuan.
…
"What did you say? A master teacher came to the capital? He cured Ling Tianyu's wife's illness in ten minutes? "
"How is that possible? This is definitely fake news. Even Master Yuanyu couldn't understand her illness. No matter how incredible a master teacher is, his medical skills might not be comparable to him! "
"I also think that it's just a rumor. I'm afraid that this is just wishful thinking."
"I heard that the person's name is Yang Xuan. There are only a handful of master teachers in the Nine Kingdoms surrounding Tianxuan Kingdom. I have never heard of this name before!"
"Perhaps it's because an incredible physician has arrived that everyone started spreading the news. If he's really a master teacher, I don't believe that Emperor Shen Zhui wouldn't know of him."
"Emperor Shen Zhui has much more expectations for master teachers than us. I heard that he has even gone out to invite him several times. How could he be unaware of the existence of a master teacher in the capital?"
"Regardless of whether it's true or not, we just have to send a few men over to check on the matter …"
The same scene was occurring in countless prestigious clans and powers.
Ling Tianyu could be considered as a respected figure in Tianxuan Royal City. For him to suddenly stand outside a residence for an entire night, how could anyone not be suspicious?
The moment that a master teacher was involved, the news spread quickly.
However, no one believed it at all.
Even the weakest 1-star master teacher would be treated like a Kingdom Knight. How could a master teacher suddenly appear in a small residence without any news?
…
While the quarrels continued outside, the person in question, Zhang Xuan, was currently staring at Sun Qiang with a deep frown on his face.
"That's not right. Why doesn't it appear when I touch him?"
After Ling Tianyu left, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but try touching a patient.
In the end, even after touching Sun Qiang's entire body, nothing happened.
"Xiao Qiang, lie down." Zhang Xuan instructed.
"Lie down?" The corners of Sun Qiang's mouth twitched. He was on the verge of tears.
Logically speaking, no matter what the old master wanted him to do, he should do his best to cooperate. But … the moment the old master started touching him … he was on the verge of going insane.
Previously, when he heard that he wanted to touch Ling Tianyu's wife, he thought that he had some special fetish. However, after clarifying the matter, he relaxed.
In the end, it turned out that his fetish wasn't women but men …
Furthermore … Didn't you hear that? Not only is touching not enough, he wants me to lie down …
My unblemished innocence … my pure body …
"Old master …"
"Hurry up!" Zhang Xuan frowned. It's not as if I want you to lie down and die. Why are you wasting time?
"Yes!" With tears brimming in his eyes, Sun Qiang lay on the floor, waiting for the old master to 'ravage' him. However, just like before, the old master touched his wrists and body. A doubtful voice sounded, "That's not right. Why isn't there any reaction?"
"Reaction? Old master, you … What kind of reaction do you want? "Sun Qiang trembled.
To randomly touch his body, could it be that … he wants me to have a reaction first?
In the end, he is still a 'receiver'?
Thinking of this, Zhang Xuan felt a chill run down his spine.
"There isn't any reaction … Ah, right!" While Zhang Xuan's thoughts were running wild, the 'old master' by the side seemed to have thought of something. He slapped his forehead and lowered his head, "Xiao Qiang, don't move. Let me try knocking you out …"
"…" Sun Qiang felt dizzy.
What is going on?
Old master, what are you trying to do …
Could it be that … you are embarrassed that I am awake?
