Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Chapter 2722 - 2723: Mutual Probing

Bai Ruozhu became anxious upon receiving the news, as Yuchenzi was now her ally, and she sympathized with Yuchenzi greatly. But how did this matter get connected to Yuchenzi?

"We can’t get involved, we can only think of another way." Jiang Yichun tried to persuade her as he saw her getting worried.

"Those old bastards should all be killed, killing one is too few, but I don’t want to harm Yuchenzi." Bai Ruozhu said.

Astrologer and Gao Zhou knocked on the door and entered, Gao Zhou said, "I feel like those old scoundrels are probing us? They should be the most aware of Yuchenzi’s strength, and Yuchenzi just lost blood, how could she fight against the Third Elder? Even if they want to frame someone, regardless of the actual situation, there’s no need to kill Yuchenzi."

Bai Ruozhu calmed down a bit, nodded, and said, "You’re right, they need to rely on Yuchen Palace for many things, it makes no sense to really kill Yuchenzi."

Once she figured it out, her heart naturally opened up, she sighed with relief and sat down, "So what should we do now?"

"You continue treating Madam Feng Ran as usual, and suggest a return date to the great elder tomorrow, just say Madam Feng Ran’s illness needs to be nurtured slowly, you can’t stay here indefinitely, and plan to treat her for a few more days to stabilize her condition, then prescribe medication before leaving." Astrologer suggested.

"Saying that, those old scoundrels may not agree to let us go." Gao Zhou said.

Bai Ruozhu nodded, "Alright, I’ll also go to see Feng Ran later, and tomorrow we’ll say this."

Afterwards, she talked about Sibao’s discovery, everyone began to ponder why they used Duannian’s father’s blood.

"The Merfolk have been cultivating the saintess for a long time, definitely they weren’t using Duannian’s father’s blood before, and what’s their purpose in using Duannian’s father to make the female Merfolk pregnant, do they want to see if all his offspring have fishtails?" Fo Lanying asked.

"I suspect the other child is hidden, with a situation similar to Duannian’s. I also guess there were past instances like Duannian’s father, and the previous saintess probably drank that kind of blood too."

Gao Zhou clenched his fists, recalling how his Chushuang was forced to drink such blood, he wished he could immediately kill all those old Merfolk.

"I truly don’t know where the Merfolk hide things and people. I’ve asked Sibao to search everywhere, but even it hasn’t found anything." Bai Ruozhu said with some frustration.

If they could find the Dragon Ball, things would be much easier.

Bai Ruozhu glanced at Gao Zhou, feeling somewhat distressed, she promised Chushuang not to speak, yet felt she owed Gao Zhou.

After everyone finished their discussion and adjourned the meeting, Jiang Yichun held her hand and asked, "Why were you staring at my father in a daze, what’s going through your mind?"

"I saw he was in a bad mood, afraid I might have said something wrong, like the matter of the saintess being fed blood. I forgot your mother was also..." Bai Ruozhu hastily found an excuse, "So felt a bit apologetic to your father."

Jiang Yichun pulled her into his arms, "Don’t think too much, these mistakes weren’t caused by you. If it weren’t for you, we couldn’t even find Merfolk Island, nor see the place where my mother grew up."

"Getting better at comforting people." Bai Ruozhu smiled and pinched his cheek.

"If I don’t do well, others might try to take you away." Jiang Yichun said with a touch of jealousy.

Bai Ruozhu giggled, "You’re not talking about Feng Cheng, are you? Honestly, if I had met him first, I definitely wouldn’t have chosen you."

"You’re asking for trouble!" Jiang Yichun reached out to tickle her, which made her laugh, and the laughter floated out the window, dimming Feng Cheng’s expression further.

She was so happy, he should let go, yet he couldn’t.

He thought, having lived so long and been cursed, that his heart should be tranquil, but even stagnant water had ripples, he couldn’t find peace.

Enough, as long as she is well, he’ll be at ease.

For safety reasons, Jiang Yichun held Bai Ruozhu back from going to Yuchen Palace. The next morning, she went to see Feng Ran.

"Why has the condition worsened again? It was getting better!" Bai Ruozhu checked Feng Ran’s pulse, her face immediately darkened.

Ling Chen standing nearby said, "Yesterday Madam Feng Ran had a big quarrel with the great elder and was forcibly brought back, feeling rather agitated."

Bai Ruozhu, upon hearing, felt angry, "I said she couldn’t take shocks, needs nurturing over time, what’s the point of finding me for treatment if the great elder doesn’t cooperate?"

Ling Chen lowered his head, "There are issues within the clan, the great elder’s emotions are also somewhat unstable."

Bai Ruozhu flung her sleeves, "I’m going to have a good talk with him."

She stormed off, Feng Ran slowly opened her eyes, "Don’t let her treat anymore, I won’t get better, she’s a good child, this is too much of a waste of her time."

"The great elder won’t give up." Ling Chen said before turning and leaving the room.

Feng Ran’s Divine Sense had been damaged, her soul was also unstable; if Ling Chen’s special ability wasn’t handled carefully, it could harm her. Therefore, whenever Feng Ran was awake, Ling Chen kept a distance.

Bai Ruozhu soon arrived at the Main Hall, but was blocked by Wenyu guarding the door.

"The great elder isn’t seeing guests, you better not disturb him." Wenyu said.

"I need to discuss Madam Feng Ran’s condition with him, no matter how busy he is, he can’t ignore his wife’s life and death, right?" Bai Ruozhu asked.

Wenyu’s face changed several times, "What happened to Madam Feng Ran?"

"Her condition worsened, if this continues, within a few months she’ll die of a headache." Bai Ruozhu deliberately raised her voice, also looked into the Main Hall.

Inside, someone suddenly stood up, and in the rush, knocked over a chair, followed by a string of hurried footsteps, the great elder rushed out of the Main Hall.

"You said she’ll die in a few months?" He stared at Bai Ruozhu and asked.

"Her Divine Sense was originally damaged, her spirit also unstable. Arguing with her agitates her, easily damaging her Divine Sense. You know too, if the Divine Sense is severely hurt, even if one doesn’t die, they’ll only sleep endlessly, becoming Living Dead." Bai Ruozhu explained.

"Since you asked me to treat Madam Feng Ran, you should follow my medical advice, if your family isn’t cooperating, how can I, as a doctor, cure the patient? Don’t end up blaming me."

The great elder’s eyes reddened slightly, his hand trembled a bit, "It’s my fault, I shouldn’t have been angry with her yesterday, whatever she says just let it be, why even listen?"

"Madam Feng Ran frequently loses emotional control, her words can’t be taken seriously, don’t take it to heart, great elder." Bai Ruozhu said.

The great elder sighed heavily, "Yesterday the Third Elder was killed, even had an ear sliced off, Merfolk Island hasn’t had a murder case for many years."

Bai Ruozhu raised her eyebrow, "You’re not suspecting us, are you? Hasn’t anyone died on Merfolk Island for years?"

What nonsense, when they execute someone it’s called not having a murder case, but when their core members die, it’s a big deal.
