Chapter 661: Hiding Deeply Without Showing
“You are right. I have worked tirelessly on her, suffering infinite pains cautiously and conscientiously as her teacher for such a long time. If she does not even have the power to protect herself after all that, then she died deservingly,” Ling Chuxi snorted and said proudly.
Seeing Ling Chuxi’s disdainful expression, Ling Shaoqiu and Jiang Wuhen jaws dropped at the same time as cold sweat started beading on their heads.
Other people did not understand the inside story, but would they not be aware of it to some extent? Could the Great Miss Ling’s teaching etiquette really be called tireless? Did her efforts really amount to her taking infinite pains? Could her methods of education really be called cautious and conscientious?
Ling Chuxi had clearly taught the fifth princess in a ravaging, devastating and torturing way. If one really had to call it working tirelessly, then one would also have to call it bullying too enjoyably to the point where she forgot to go easy on the target. The devilish fifth princess was someone whom everyone was afraid of, but she was had been tortured by Ling Chuxi to the point of being overly sensitive. Yet, despite this, Ling Chuxi still actually dared to stick gold on her own face.
‘We originally thought that the two of us were considered thick-skinned enough, but from what we’re seeing today, it turns out that the great Miss Ling was the one who was hiding deeply, without showing her true shamelessness.’
“Then what about the Ling family? Nothing happened to the Ling family, right?” Ling Chuxi totally did not think about how great of an impact her words earlier on had created on their brittle hearts as she continued to ask them everything she wanted to know. When she asked this question, her heart inevitably felt a little nervous to hear their answers.
“You don’t have to worry about the Ling family. I saw that the situation wasn’t too good and found a way to send news over to Resurrection Hall to inform Elder Su and the rest to go over to the Ling family. They should already be there,” Jiang Wuhen said.
Ling Chuxi could not help but take a few deep looks at Jiang Wuhen. All along, Jiang Wuhen gave her a feeling that he was not reliable. In fact, he gave her the feeling that he was extremely unreliable and was practically a troublemaker. However, meeting him this time, she suddenly found out that she had been perceiving him too simply in the past. At times, it seemed as though he treated the world lightly and at times, he seemed to be very loyal, valuing his relationships seriously, but at other times he dealt with matters so sophisticatedly it was left one almost not daring to believe they were the actions of the same person. Ling Chuxi realized that the more she saw of him, and more she did not understand him.
“Many thanks,” Ling Chuxi finally said to Jiang Wuhen after quite a while. She believed that as long as Jiang Wuhen’s message was received by those at Resurrection Hall, Su Yizhi and the rest would protect the Ling family without regard for their lives. Her greatest worry could be considered to be gone upon learning this.
Actually, with the situation Jiang Wuhen, Ling Shaoqiu and Zhou Zhidong were in, they should have sought out the Su family for help for themselves, but instead, Jiang Wuhen had asked Su Yizhi and the rest of the Su family members to aid the Ling family. Obviously, he was very clear about the weight of these current matters and the urgency they presented. Even if the three of them had managed to safely return to Nan Xia with the help of the Su family, there were no benefits to that. However, knowing full well that the Ling family were of great importance to Ling Chuxi, he willingly stayed on in Chang Qing City to cheat and swindle whilst sending the Su family members to assist the Ling family instead.
“Miss Ling, what should we do next?” Zhou Zhidong asked.
“Let me take a look at your injuries first,” said Ling Chuxi. She checked Zhou Zhidong’s pulse and found that his internal organs were greatly injured, and a great half of his meridians had been blocked. It was lucky that he had the cultivation of Great Fulfilment Intermediate stage and that within this period of time, Jiang Wuhen and Ling Shaoqiu had burnt quite a bit of money to make him better. Otherwise, he would have been unable to hold on till today.
Ling Chuxi used golden needles to clear Zhou Zhidong’s meridians before passing him a few medicinal pills. “General Zhou, take one of each every day. After you’ve finished all the pills I’m giving you, you should be fine. Recuperate for a couple of days, then go over to Dong Xing Country’s Jian Wen City and look for the Xiao family. Let them bring you to their country’s guardian, Mister Lin, and ask him to make an appearance to reinforce Nan Xia Country.”
Although Mister Mo had returned to Nan Xia, Ling Chuxi was still a little worried. After all, he had been severely injured the last time she saw him, and she did not know how much he had recovered since then. The situation at hand now did not allow for them to delay getting help in the slightest bit.
Zhou Zhidong accepted the pills and solemnly nodded.
“Then what about us?” Li Shaoqiu asked.
“We return to Nan Xia immediately,” Ling Chuxi said.
