Chapter 10 Yao Zhaizhu's Scheme
Chapter 10 Yao Zhaizhu's Scheme
Mu Zhan escaped from the small wooden house, and when he remembered the pink color he had just seen, his breathing became unstable.
To calm himself down, Mu Zhan chose to sit cross-legged in the courtyard to cultivate, adjust his mindset, and gradually enter a state of cultivation.
……
Wanyaozhai.
The owner of Wanyaozhai, Master Yao, was at the counter counting the day's profits.
Looking at the cabinet full of gold coins, Master Yao was overjoyed. Over the years, he had made a lot of money from these mercenaries by relying on Little Fairy Doctor's popularity and her medical skills.
Although there are other clinics and pharmacies in Qingshan Town besides his, not every clinic has a doctor as popular as Little Fairy Doctor.
It can be said that the achievements of Wanyaozhai over the years are largely due to Xiaoyixian.
"Oh no! Master, a young man has come and tries to take Little Fairy Doctor away!"
Just as Master Yao was counting his money and daydreaming about the future, a maid ran in from outside, saying that Little Fairy Doctor was about to leave.
"What! Tell me the whole story!"
Since it concerned his cash cow, Master Yao dared not be careless and hurriedly asked his maid to tell him the whole story.
"Today, a young man specifically asked for Little Fairy Doctor. Later, I don't know what the young man said to Little Fairy Doctor."
They returned together to Little Fairy Doctor's courtyard. The servant dared not approach, but could only hear from afar that the boy said, "You have to come with me."
However, judging from Little Fairy Doctor's expression, she didn't seem to refuse. This servant guesses that Little Fairy Doctor might have taken a liking to that boy.
The maid recounted the whole story of what she had seen and heard.
"Well, this damned brat, he's even trying to take advantage of my Wan Yao Zhai."
Master Yao was furious. Little Fairy Doctor was his cash cow, and she was exceptionally beautiful. He hadn't even had a chance to make a move on her yet, so how could he possibly let someone else have her?
"What does that kid look like? Do you know anything about his background? Does he have any powerful companions with him?"
Although Master Yao was angry, he did not lose his temper. He calmed down and began to ask the maid about the specific details of the battle.
"This servant does not know. I only know that the person was of good appearance and dressed differently from ordinary people. He did not seem to be from the vicinity of Qingshan Town. A few days ago, he seemed to have come to our Wanyaozhai to buy a map of the herb gathering route."
The maidservant was indeed a top-notch lackey sent by Master Yao to monitor Little Fairy Doctor; she even remembered the incident a few days ago when Little Fairy Doctor sold the map to Mu Zhan.
"Judging from his appearance, he's probably a young master from a family who's out for training. These kinds of people aren't easy to mess with. He may seem to be all alone, but he probably has a powerful protector in the shadows."
Master Yao, as expected of a cunning old fox who has been through so many years of trials and tribulations, was able to guess the general idea based solely on the maid's one-sided account.
"What should we do then? Just let him take Little Fairy Doctor away?"
The maid was getting anxious. She knew how important Little Fairy Doctor was to Wan Yao Zhai, and she also knew that Master Yao had feelings for Little Fairy Doctor. Her secret surveillance of Little Fairy Doctor was also a way of currying favor with Master Yao.
If Little Fairy Doctor is taken away by Mu Zhan, then she will lose one way to please Master Yao.
"No rush. Isn't the young leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group interested in Little Fairy Doctor? You can leak this information to him and let them fight it out. Let's wait and see."
Master Yao's eyes lit up, and he decided to adopt a strategy of using one tiger to devour another, observing from the sidelines and then making his move.
"As expected of the master, this servant will take care of it immediately!"
The maidservant flattered Master Yao at the opportune moment, then quickly went to carry out her task.
……
Little Fairy Doctor's Courtyard.
After Little Fairy Doctor packed all her belongings into her storage ring, she closed the door to her little wooden house.
"Mu Zhan, I'm all packed. Let's go!"
Walking into the courtyard, looking at her little home where she had lived for several years, Little Fairy Doctor felt a little reluctant to leave. After saying her final goodbye to the courtyard, she turned around and prepared to leave with Mu Zhan.
"Looks like someone doesn't want you to leave so easily!"
Mu Zhan's senses were incredibly sharp. He sensed a group of people heading straight for the courtyard, and they all seemed to have ill intentions.
Following Mu Zhan's gaze, Little Fairy Doctor saw Mu Li, whom she usually disliked the most. He was accompanied by more than a dozen fierce-looking mercenaries, and soon appeared outside her courtyard.
"Muli! What are you doing?"
Little Fairy Doctor stood in front of Mu Zhan, her face showing displeasure, and loudly questioned Mu Li.
"What are you doing? Little Fairy Doctor, if I had come any later, were you going to elope with this kid?"
Mu Li just received news that someone wanted to take Xiao Yixian away. He was furious. Everyone in Qingshan Town knew that Xiao Yixian was his chosen woman, yet they still dared to touch her.
He immediately summoned Wolf Head's mercenaries and went to Little Fairy Doctor's courtyard, preparing to beat the person who provoked Little Fairy Doctor to death, so that everyone in Green Mountain Town would know the consequences of provoking Little Fairy Doctor.
"I have nothing to do with you. Where I go and who I'm with is none of your business."
Little Fairy Doctor deliberately emphasized that she had absolutely no connection with Mu Li, and reached into the medicine bag behind her back. If anyone dared to come in, she would definitely let them know how powerful her poison was.
The reason why Little Fairy Doctor protected Mu Zhan behind her was because she knew that Mu Zhan might be a little genius and very powerful.
But genius or not, she didn't believe that Mu Zhan, no matter how talented, could fight so many people by himself.
Little Fairy Doctor hasn't cultivated yet, so she doesn't have much understanding of strength. She only knows that there are many people on the other side, while Mu Zhan is all alone.
Little Fairy Doctor believed that these people wouldn't dare touch her. If she were harmed in the slightest, their young leader wouldn't let them off the hook. Even if they did dare to touch her, the poison in her body would teach them a lesson.
Therefore, only if she stands up to protect Mu Zhan can she and Mu Zhan find a chance to escape.
"Damn it, all of you, get him! Break that kid's limbs. I'm going to torture him to death."
When Mu Li saw Little Fairy Doctor protecting Mu Zhan behind her, his eyes widened in fury. He ordered that Mu Zhan's limbs be broken and then he be severely humiliated.
A dozen or so mercenaries, armed with weapons, surged into the courtyard, all eager to impress the young commander.
"Don't come any closer..."
The Little Fairy Doctor keeps her hands in a small medicine bag on her back, and sprinkles medicine on whoever comes near.
"Little Fairy Doctor, leave it to me."
Mu Zhan was quite happy about Xiao Yixian's act of protecting him; at least he knew that Xiao Yixian was a kind person worthy of entrusting his back to.
He stepped forward, shielding Little Fairy Doctor behind him, and stretched his body, making crackling sounds as every muscle in his body became excited.
Without saying a word, Mu Zhan stomped his foot under the horrified gazes of the crowd, unleashing a powerful aura at the Dou Shi level.
A battle aura veil composed of black and white battle aura slowly emerged on his body.
