Chapter 324: with translation of chapter title

Lin Xueyan smiled and said, "Sir, you've come at just the right time. It's like this: Xiao Hu's father has arrived. Master Ye became angry because Qingran, years ago, impulsively had relations with a beggar, lost her purity, and is now angry, so she spoke those words just now. However, Master Ye wasn't wrong, after all, the child is still young and needs a complete family; for the child's sake, Qingran should still marry Xiao Hu's father."

Lin Xueyan looked triumphantly at Ye Qingran, waiting for Wuhen's anger.

She has already said all this; Wuhen will surely be very angry, right?

Unexpectedly...

"Are you that Miss Lin of the Lin Family?"

Lin Xueyan's face lit up with joy; Wuhen actually remembered her—could it be that he has feelings for me? Although Wuhen's appearance is ordinary, he is full of a strange charm that makes one's heart flutter. Although she is supposed to marry the Emperor Sovereign, playing around with Wuhen is not out of the question.

"Not bad, I'm Lin Xueyan, the eldest daughter of the Lin Family."

Wuhen nodded, curled his lip coldly, "Really hard to tell."

Lin Xueyan: "What?"

"I thought it was just some gossiping woman who came out."

Everyone: "......"

Even His Majesty of Donglin, for the sake of the summit's prestige, would yield three points to Lin Xueyan; daring to call her a gossiping woman to her face—only this person would do so.

Lin Xueyan was so angry her seven orifices smoked.

Wuhen, actually called her a gossiping woman?

Good, very good!

"Master Wuhen, do you really not care that the woman you like is not only impure but even had a child with a beggar?" Lin Xueyan clenched her fists, refusing to believe Wuhen minds these.

Wuhen ignored Lin Xueyan, instead looking at Ye Qingran and asked: "A Ran, is this true?"

Ye Qingran shook her head, "No."

"Lin Xueyan, if you spread another rumor, I guarantee you won't see tomorrow's sun!"

Lin Xueyan's face turned ashen; she suddenly recalled Wuhen's mighty presence yesterday.

He really does have that ability!

"Master Wuhen, how can you believe her words? She certainly won't admit it!"

"I don't believe her, do I believe you?"

Wuhen said, looking at Ye Qingran, "How are you? Anything wrong? Tell me who bullied you, I'll make them lose their heads!"

So fierce!

Everyone showed terrified expressions.

Ye Qingran shook her head, "It's fine, just some clueless people causing trouble as usual."

"Good. I'll stay by your side; if you want someone's life, just tell me."

"Good." Ye Qingran replied bluntly.

The trembling crowd: "...... What the hell kind of lunatic group is this?"

Zhao Shi looked at Wuhen, hesitated, "This young master, although you're kind to my Qingran and I'm happy, it doesn't change the fact that she had a child with Li Si. After all, the three physicians and the Divine Medicine Sect's test report already explained everything..."

"Is that so?" Ye Qingran raised her eyebrows at the three physicians, "Several of you, the bloodline traits you observed—are they my son's?"

"Ye Qingran, what do you mean? These three physicians are all experienced old doctors! How can you doubt them?" Mu Qingrou shouted, "I know you don't want to accept this fact, right? But it's not up to you. Li Si is your child's father, the man who took your purity back then—this isn't something you can just deny..."

"Enough!" A low shout rang out, a wave of energy flicked Mu Qingrou's unfinished words away, sending her sprawling in a dog-eat-shit fall.

The three old physicians watched this scene, feeling a bit wary of Wuhen, but thinking they were respected elders, they steadied themselves again.

"Ye Qingran, do you understand or do I? We've been in this line for decades; you don't even know medicine, what right do you have to question us?" The blue-robed physician demanded sternly.

"Whether I have the right to question you isn't important; what matters is, does the Divine Medicine Sect have that right?"

The three old physicians' faces changed, "What do you mean?"

"My meaning is, weren't you all confident in your observations? Then let's invite the Divine Medicine Sect's people to test again, how about that?"

The three old physicians' faces changed.

Lin Xueyan's face also darkened, "Ye Qingran, do you think the Divine Medicine Sect's people are easy to summon? Even if you can summon a disciple, their skill is limited and can't prove anything!"

"Can't a Divine Medicine Sect disciple prove anything? Then I certainly can!"

A cold snort sounded, Lin Xueyan's face suddenly changed!

This is...

The Ninth Elder of the Divine Medicine Sect?

The voice faded, a gray-clothed figure slowly stepped from behind the crowd.

The figure's hair and beard were partially gray-white, yet his complexion was ruddy, his spirit vibrant, his steps vigorous—indeed the Ninth Elder of the Divine Medicine Sect!

"It's the Ninth Elder of the Divine Medicine Sect!"

The common folk looked at this elder, showing surprise.

The Ninth Elder of the Divine Medicine Sect has arrived!

Unlike others' reactions, Lin Xueyan furrowed her brows, her face solemn.

Why would the Ninth Elder come?

When the Ninth Elder saw Ye Qingran, his eyes flashed with a moment of excitement, which he suppressed.

Since yesterday, after Ye Qingran gave him that pill formula, he now regards this Guest Minister Elder even more highly.

Just now Leng Yue came to find him, told him the basic situation here, saying Ye Qingran needed him to step forward; he didn't waste a second, rushing over on horseback without pause!

The Ninth Elder's gaze swept over those present with a chill—dare to bully their Divine Medicine Sect's Guest Minister Elder?

Courting death!

"Miss Ye, thank you truly yesterday for your pill formula! On behalf of the Divine Medicine Sect, I express my sincere gratitude!"

The Ninth Elder came before Ye Qingran, bowed deeply.

Seeing this, everyone was stunned.
