Chapter 144: My Small Heart is About to be Unable to Take It
“Alright. The second elder’s injury has been temporarily suppressed. His spleen was wounded, so there should be some bleeding. Now, this has stopped. I’ll write to Master Lan and get him to send some herbs over.” Ling Chuxi stood up and the corner of her lips curved upward. “This time, Master Lan has to lose out big time. He has to sponsor herbs and wade in murky waters.”
“Master Lan?” asked the first elder.
His hand was still trembling. It took much effort before he finally stopped the trembling and carefully put away the porcelain bottle. Now that he heard Ling Chuxi saying this, he was shocked once again.
“Could it be the White Stone City’s Lan family that has stood upright for hundreds of years without falling? The Lan family that produced the peerless genius?”
“That peerless genius was already defeated by Chuxi,” chimed in Ling Yichen, expressionlessly adding on another shock.
“What?!”
The first elder’s jaw clearly let out a ‘crack’ as he looked at a calm Ling Chuxi with both his eyes and mouth wide open.
“The Qin family and the Luo family. We need to seek them out to come to a conclusion,” said Ling Chuxi, her eyes turning cold. “Who secretly attacked the second elder?”
“Second Brother, tell me, who do you think attacked you that night?” asked the first elder as he snapped his jaw back into place with another ‘crack’.
Looking at the second elder, he realized in astonishment that his face seemed to look a little better.
“That night, it was actually two people who launched a sneak attack on me. I think that they were the Qin family’s Qin Nanfeng and the Luo family’s Luo Qiying. I have seen their fighting styles before. Furthermore, I also injured one of them. That person should have a broken finger. Even if the bones were re-joined, it should not be so quickly recovered. It’s a good thing that fifth brother passed by. Otherwise, the outcome would be unbearable,” said the second elder, carefully recalling the incident.
When Ling Chuxi heard the second elder’s words, her expression turned ice cold. Qin Nanfeng and Luo Qiying. The former was the Qin family’s fourth elder, while the latter was the Luo family’s third elder. Both their cultivation were at Battle Qi Level-8 Primary stage. For them to actually join hands and sneak attack the second elder, it was clear that they had intended to kill him.
Ling Chuxi stood up. “I got it. I will go and write to Master Lan first.” Her voice was ice cold.
The second elder saw the anger between Ling Chuxi’s brows and feared that she would do something stupid. He hurriedly said, “Chuxi little one, don’t be impulsive. You and Yichen are currently the only hope of our Ling Family. I won’t allow either one of you to come to any harm.”
“Don’t worry, Second Elder. I know my limits.” Ling Chuxi smiled gently. “Take a good rest first. When the herbs arrive, I will definitely get you back on your feet in no time.”
“You child...”
Tickled by Ling Chuxi’s words, the second elder helplessly shook his head.
After Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen left, Ling Shiyu came running in. He couldn’t keep the smile off his face. “Grandfather, Elder Sister Chuxi said that you will be fully recovered tomorrow.”
The second elder and the first elder exchanged a glance and saw that there were complicated emotions in the eyes of the other party. There was shock, disbelief, assurance, happiness... Ling Chuxi had given them way too many surprises, making them almost unable to bear it.
What kind of other surprises were awaiting them? The first elder put his hand on his chest as he mentally muttered to himself. ‘Better not come up with a surprise that is too wild. My small heart would not be able to take it.’
