Chapter 93: Miss Huo Becomes a Disciple!

~7 min read 1,363 words

Jiang Feng watched the Prince's panicked demeanor and gave a slight smile.

"Prince, your bodyguards don't seem able to protect you now."

"What are you trying to do?"

The Prince keenly sensed Danger.

"Guess what, if I wanted to take your life right now, who could stop me?"

The moment the words fell, the Prince felt a blast of cold rushing from his Foot straight to the top of his head!

He instinctively stepped back.

"You... you dare!"

His voice trembled as he forced his authority.

"I am the Emperor's paternal uncle, an Imperial Clan member!"

"If you dare kill me, it will be treason! The Emperor will not let you go! The entire Imperial Clan will hunt you down!"

"Hunt me?"

Jiang Feng raised an eyebrow lightly, with a hint of mockery.

"Prince, you seem to have forgotten that you never intended to let me leave alive from the start. Since that's the case, being hunted by you is no different from being hunted by the Imperial Clan. I'd rather deal with you first for a quicker end."

Hearing that, the color drained completely from his face in an instant.

He truly hadn't expected Jiang Feng to be so bold!

The Prince could no longer maintain his princely dignity and shouted at Huo Lao.

"Huo Lao, are you also going to stand by while I am killed by him?"

Huo Lao gave the Prince a casual glance: "Prince, I am powerless…"

Those words were like a death sentence for the Prince.

Jiang Feng seized the chance and stepped forward; the Prince, terrified, collapsed onto the Ground, completely stripped of Pride.

"Huo Lao! Huo Lao, save me!"

"I know I was wrong! I should not have allowed Wu Chengliang to hurt anyone! I know I was wrong!"

Seeing the Prince on the verge of crying, Huo Lao couldn't help but frown.

He truly could not imagine the Imperial Clan being so disgraceful.

But since the Prince is an Imperial Clan member, dying at the Huo Family would be hard for him to explain to the Emperor.

He was about to urge Jiang Feng to stand down when he heard Jiang Feng give the Prince a cold laugh.

"Jiangnan Prince, Huo Lao cannot protect you. Provincial Government troops have already withdrawn to the sides; at this distance, killing you is as easy as flipping a hand."

Hearing this, the Prince's last hope was completely shattered!

"You... you really intend to kill me?"

Jiang Feng sneered, "Otherwise what? I have no Habit of leaving enemies behind."

"I promise, I will never oppose you again!"

The Prince immediately raised his finger with solemn oath, thinking of his endless wealth and honor; dying here like this would be a damn waste!

Huo Lao, seeing the situation, knew the moment was ripe; if it continued, there would be no way to settle it.

He stepped forward and lightly patted Jiang Feng's Shoulder.

"Divine Doctor Jiang, let's drop it. Although the Prince is at fault, he is still an Imperial Clan member; if an accident truly occurs, there will be no room for any reversal of the situation."

Jiang Feng knew this was Huo Lao giving him a way out, yet he still replied coldly.

"Huo Lao, it's not that I refuse to give you face; he never intended to let me live from the start! He even tried to force me to join the Rui Country Medical Team!"

The Prince quickly added.

"No more! To hell with the Rui Country Medical Team! Divine Doctor Jiang, I promise! If those foreigners dare to harass again, I will kill them!"

At this moment, the Prince's resentment toward Brian and the other had reached its peak.

If it weren't for those two idiots, how could he have offended this Killing God!

Jiang Feng looked at him with a half‑smile.

"Prince, are you sure you can keep the Rui Country Medical Team in check?"

"Yes! Definitely can!"

The Prince quickly nodded, as if he had grasped the last straw of salvation.

"If you don't believe, I can swear to the heavens!"

"No need to swear."

Jiang Feng waved his hand, his tone flat.

"I believe the Prince wouldn't gamble with his own life. After all, if I wanted to kill you, it would be very simple."

Finishing, he raised his right hand and gently waved at the rigid bodyguards.

The next second, the previously motionless bodyguards seemed to have their restraints lifted, their gazes clearing from dullness to Recovery.

Seeing the bodyguards move, the Prince instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

He hurriedly made a hasty bow toward Jiang Feng and Huo Lao.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang, thank you, Mr. Jiang."

Seemingly afraid Jiang Feng might regret, he turned his head and tossed out a line.

"I have other matters, I shall take my leave now!"

Having said that, he didn't even bother the Wu Chengliang on the Ground, turning and sprinting toward the exit.

The bodyguards hurriedly followed, crowding around him as he slipped into the carriage.

When the carriage started, it sped away as if a flood were chasing from behind, quickly leaving the Huo Family Old Residence.

Even Wu Chengliang and his severed arm were forgotten to be taken away.

Watching the sedan disappear at the alley mouth, Huo Lao couldn't help bursting into Laughter.

'Exhilarating! Truly exhilarating! I, this old man, have never seen Jiangnan Wang look so disheveled!'

Huo Dongting and Huo Dongchen hurried forward, supporting Huo Lao.

'Father, you just woke up, don't laugh so hard, take care of your health.'

'It's fine, it's fine!'

Huo Lao waved his hand, in a very good mood, and took Jiang Feng's hand.

'Come! Mr. Jiang, let's go inside to eat! The kitchen has already prepared the dishes; consider it a small token from the Huo Family.'

Jiang Feng did not decline, and followed Huo Lao into the main hall.

At this moment, Jiangnan Wang, frantic in the car, happened to see this scene.

His eyes instantly turned blood‑red.

'Damn it, I, this king, have never suffered such humiliation! Jiang Feng, I will never let you go!'

……

At this moment, the living room already has a table of dishes set.

Huo Lao took Jiang Feng to sit at the head seat, sat himself beside, and the brothers Huo Dongting and Huo Dongchen personally kept company.

And Huo Lao's grandchildren have not even the right to sit at the table.

After the meal, Jiang Feng looked at the sky and knew it was time to return to Jiangcheng.

So he rose and cupped his hands toward Huo Lao: 'Huo Lao, it's getting late, I should return to Jiangcheng. If you feel unwell, call me at any time.'

Huo Lao did not try to detain him, knowing Jiang Feng has many affairs.

He asked Huo Dongting to take out an embroidered box and hand it to Jiang Feng.

'Mr. Jiang, this is a small token of mine; inside are several Hundred‑year‑old Ginsengs, take them to nourish your body. You saved me, I have little to repay you; this little thing, please do not refuse.'

Jiang Feng could not refuse, so he had to accept the embroidered box.

Afterwards he reminded Huo Lao again to watch his health, then turned and walked toward the doorway.

Just as he reached the courtyard, a white figure blocked the way ahead.

It was Huo Lao's young granddaughter, Huo Siyong.

She wore the same white dress she had before; under the moonlight, her graceful silhouette was faint yet breathtakingly beautiful.

When she saw Jiang Feng, a faint smile curled at the corner of her mouth, and she teasingly said, 'Mr. Jiang, please wait a moment!'

Jiang Feng halted his steps, looking at her in puzzlement.

'Miss Huo, is there something?'

Huo Siyong lifted her head, her bright eyes full of merriment.

She spoke gracefully, 'Mr. Jiang, I'm sorry to stop you, but I have a matter to ask of you.'

'I am a student of the Jiangnan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. I wish to become your disciple, to study Traditional Chinese Medicine under you; will you accept me?'

'Well…'

Jiang Feng was slightly hesitant.
