"You are?" The medicine boy was not very old, looking to be no more than eight or nine years old. His clothes were plain and simple and when he suddenly saw Ye Sha and his companions, tall and well built, dressed in black with a cold demeanour, he could not help but show a trace of nervousness on his face. He shrunk his shoulders and his hands clutched tightly onto his fan.
"Don't be nervous, we are not bad people. We are here to find the Medical Saint Bai Xu." Rong Ruo stepped forward and smiled warmly at the medicine boy.
The medicine boy pursed his lips, his big eyes wandered over Rong Ruo and Ye Sha, his eyes filled with anxiety.
"What Medical Saint Bai Xu … I don't know … you are in the wrong place, there is no such thing as a Medical Saint here." The medicine boy stuttered, his tone had already revealed his panic.
Unless one was a fool, no one would believe his words.
Jun Wu Xie looked past the medicine boy and saw the light in the room. She took a step forward and wanted to go in but was stopped by the medicine boy.
"There is no one in the house! You … you can't go in … "The medicine boy trembled as he stood in front of Jun Wu Xie. His panicked eyes froze when he saw Jun Wu Xie's face.
Under the moonlight, the cold woman in front of him was actually so beautiful, the medicine boy could not even find any words to describe her beauty.
So beautiful …
In this world, how could there be such a beautiful woman?
"Move." Jun Wu Xie said lightly.
The medicine boy did not give way.
Ye Sha immediately took a step forward and pulled the medicine boy away forcefully but not too violently.
"Ah! What the hell do you want! How can you trespass!! " The medicine boy was pulled away by Ye Sha and he could not help but let out a panicked cry. At that moment, a gentle and old voice rang out from within the thatched cottage in the quiet forest.
"Since you are guests from afar, you should know some manners."
The voice was not loud but it clearly reached everyone's ears. Under the gentle voice, there was a sense of toughness.
Ye Sha grabbed the medicine boy and looked at Jun Wu Xie hesitantly. Jun Wu Xie nodded slightly and he let go of the medicine boy. The medicine boy who had regained his freedom immediately stood in front of the door and opened his arms to protect the door.
"Let them in." The voice sounded again but this time it was directed at the medicine boy.
The medicine boy bit his lip and hesitated for a long time before he finally stepped aside to let them pass.
Jun Wu Xie walked to the door and pushed it open.
Inside the room, there was a simple table and a chair. A candle was lit up, giving off a weak light. On a soft couch at the side, an elder dressed in coarse hemp clothes was sitting upright. When he raised his head and looked at the uninvited "guest", a trace of surprise appeared on his peaceful face.
"Looking at you, you don't seem to be from the Nine Temples." Bai Xu's gaze fell on Jun Wu Xie as he suddenly commented.
"Why do you say that?" Jun Wu Xie said as she looked at Bai Xu. Five years ago, she had met Bai Xu once in the Cloudy Brook Academy. But at that time, she had been so focused on dealing with the Twelve Palaces that she did not have much contact with Bai Xu. Never would she have thought that five years of light and shadow would change many things and she would actually be able to find him once again.
Bai Xu chuckled. "In the Nine Temples, if there were people like you, they would not have become the puppets of the Upper Realm. And looking at your appearance, you don't seem to be from the Upper Realm."
Bai Xu's keenness surprised Qiao Chu and the others who followed behind Jun Wu Xie.
