C1 The Return of the War God
On the southern border of Xia Country.
A man wearing a black battle robe was waving his long blade continuously. Amidst the cold light, a large amount of blood splashed out.
After a long time, corpses were floating all over the battlefield. The great battle finally came to an end.
"Loong Da, now that the last battle has ended, are you sure you want to return to Luo City? After ten years of hard work, you became this War Lord!"
Loong Jiu wiped the blood off the knife with a cold expression and replied to Assistant Lee behind him.
"A gentleman's word cannot be followed by a horse's word. Furthermore, I have already reached the peak. Choosing to retreat in a hurry is not a bad choice. Assistant Lee, you don't have to feel sorry for me. After all, you know what I'm thinking."
Assistant Lee's hands involuntarily trembled, but his tone was incomparably firm.
"Alright, then I am willing to accompany you back to Luo City and be your assistant for the rest of my life!"
Loong Jiu raised his head and smiled. He looked at the gloomy sky and waved his hand at Assistant Lee without hesitation.
"I appreciate your kindness, Assistant Lee. But I will let you stay with me for half a month at most. I will treat it as a vacation for you."
"No, Loong Da, I..."
Before Assistant Lee could finish his sentence, he was shocked by Loong Jiu's murderous gaze.
Even though they had gone through life and death together for ten years, he still could not look at Loong Jiu directly. This kind of threatening gaze was like the arrival of a death god.
In the night, Loong Jiu and Assistant Lee boarded the plane back to Luo City. Due to his fatigue, Loong Jiu quickly fell asleep in his seat.
The memory fragments that had been hidden in his mind for a long time surged into Loong Jiu's mind at this moment.
Ten years ago, the sixteen year old Loong Jiu followed his master down the mountain and temporarily stayed in the Lee Family in Luo City.
Here, Loong Jiu knew that there was actually a kind of unruly creature called a girl in this world, but his favorite was still the young miss of the Lee family, Lee Feier.
During his time in the Lee Family, it was the happiest and most relaxing time in Loong Jiu's life.
However, all of that had come to an end after an assassination attempt.
That night, Loong Jiu and Lee Feier caught fish by the river. When they returned, their master was surrounded by a group of men. Even though their master cooperated and handed over all the secret manuals, he was still killed by them.
If Lee Feier had not covered Loong Jiu's mouth and did not let him rush over, he would have died in the hands of those men along with his master.
The scene in his mind stopped at this moment because Loong Jiu had woken up.
"Loong Da, did you have a nightmare again? You rarely had nightmares these two years."
"Yeah. Maybe it's time to go back. That's why the past is beginning to see the light of day again."
As Loong Jiu spoke, the glass in his hand was instantly crushed by him. Large and small wounds flowed with blood, scaring Assistant Lee.
"I'll bandage your wounds immediately, otherwise the wounds will affect your drawing of the knife."
Loong Jiu did not refuse. He waited until Assistant Lee was done bandaging before he spoke again.
"I asked you to help me check on the Lee Family and Zhang Family in Luo City. How are they now?"
"Loong Da, don't worry. We have investigated them thoroughly. The Lee Family is still alright now. Although they are still a second-rate power after ten years, they can still be considered as a famous force in Luo City."
"As for that Zhang Family, ever since they obtained your master's secret manual, their development in the medical world has already reached the top in the Luo City. It can be said that they are incomparably glorious."
Knowing that his beloved and his enemy were still around, Loong Jiu nodded slightly. However, the light in his eyes had become much brighter.
Two days later, in the Lee Family of Luo City.
After a series of drums and gongs, many people who were watching on the street had gathered in front of the Lee Family's gate.
"Today is the day that our Eldest Young Miss Lee Feier is going to recruit a husband. There is only one requirement to be the son-in-law of our Lee Family, and that is to be able to cure Miss Feier's chronic illness."
Just as the butler of the Lee Family finished speaking, the surrounding people began to discuss animatedly.
"I heard that this young miss of the Lee family is as beautiful as a goddess, but she has always been seriously ill. Even with the financial resources of the Lee Family, they were unable to cure her."
"So that's how it is. It seems like the Lee Family has tried everything they could to cure this young lady. That's why they came up with this plan."
"That's for sure. Otherwise, with the prestige and family business of the Lee Family, why would the young lady need to recruit her husband?"
...
Although there were many people watching the show, none of them wanted to try and treat the big miss of the Li family.
After all, it was a disease that ordinary doctors could not cure. Who would have the ability to try it?
Time passed in a flash. By noon, the number of people in front of the Lee Family had decreased significantly.
Loong Jiu rushed over and listened to the people around him sense the news. Without any hesitation, he walked to the stone lion that placed the embroidery ball and took it away.
"I can't go, can I? This young man actually really ran over to get the embroidered ball."
"Sigh, young people like to join in the fun, right? It's definitely something that can't be cured."
"Right, right, right, he's still too young in the end. He doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth!"
Assistant Lee listened to these people's discussions and wanted to teach them a lesson. However, Loong Jiu had already warned him that he couldn't do anything without an order.
After entering the inner area of Lee Family, the butler looked at Loong Jiu in surprise and said with some disdain.
"Kid, are you sure you know medicine? Although our young lady has a chronic illness, she has a noble body and can't allow others to act recklessly."
Loong Jiu had seen many people who looked down on others, so he didn't show any emotion on his face.
After sizing her up, he spoke in a cold voice beside his ear.
"I see that your face is sallow, and your lips are dry and dry. Your footsteps are weak. It should be due to your kidney deficiency. Remember to eat the Six Tastes Earth Yellow Pill."
The butler's face instantly turned red. Such a private matter had been discovered by the kid in front of him at a glance. It was truly terrifying.
"You, don't talk nonsense."
"However, no one took off the embroidery ball this morning. Fine, come with me and let Miss have a look. " However, you have to remember one thing: don't talk nonsense about Miss's illness to outsiders. "Otherwise..."
After saying that, the butler made a killing gesture to Loong Jiu.
"Don't worry, I will only cure her. I won't say anything else."
"Yes, that's right. You are so confident and sensible at such a young age. Even if you can't cure my lady, I believe you will have some accomplishments in the future."
After following the butler to the innermost room of Lee's Villa, Loong Jiu's eyes instantly widened.
This was because in this room, other than the beautiful and pale Lee Feier who had long hair that draped over her shoulders, there was no one else in the room. There were two other old men, both of whom he had never forgotten.
The old man sitting by the bed was Lee Feier's father, Lee Zehui. The old man sitting by the tea table was the patriarch of the Zhang Family, Zhang Fugui.
Hatred rose in Loong Jiu's body instantly, but for Lee Feier, he quickly suppressed all his emotions.
