After throwing out the apprentice, Dr. Xu was still angry. But now that the patient’s information had been leaked, there’s nothing he could do to undo that.
“Hi, Dr. Xu!”
A chubby man walked inside the clinic. Dr. Xu looked up and saw Innkeeper Zhu, they have been acquaintances from a while back. He forced a smile and cupped his hand to greet him, “ Oh, hi, Innkeeper Zhu, what can I do for you?”
“Dr. Xu, I came with a purpose. I have a favor to ask and I hope you can help me.” Said Innkeeper Zhu with a big friendly smile on his face.
As soon as he heard that, Dr. Xu immediately had a bad feeling. It sounded too similar to the request that he had gotten around noon time. He took a defensive stance and asked coldly, “What is this favor that you want to ask?”
“Ho ho, Dr. Xu, nothing important. Just want to ask for some information. I hope you won’t turn me down!”
Information!
Dr. Xu’s face changed color, he sounded even colder, “Okay, what information!”
“Dr. Xu, you see, we have placed an order with the Cheng’s mother and daughter, but they haven’t delivered the order yet, so I thought….”
“Stop!” coldly interrupted Dr. Xu and pointed toward the door, “I don’t know any Cheng’s mother or daughter. I don’t have what you want. Please see yourself out!”
“Aiya, Dr. Xu, what is the matter with you?”
Innkeeper Zhu had not expected Dr. Xu’s sudden change of mannerism, he was anxious, “Dr. Xu, I happened to know that you have a few house visits with Mrs. Cheng. Please, just tell me where I can find them. I will repay you handsomely!”
“Innkeeper Zhu, as I have said. I don’t know. Please go!”
“Aiya, Dr. Xu, what is the matter with you….”
“Get out, get out, I have patients to see. Hurry and get out!”
“Dr. Xu…”
“Get out! I don’t have any information. Get out!”
Innkeeper Zhu got booted out of the clinic by Dr. Xu and had no choice but to walk away slowly with a perturbed look. He couldn’t figure out why Dr. Xu had to be so rude. He was merely asking for some information.
What could he do if he still couldn’t locate the mother and daughter? His assignment was still unaccomplished.
House of Ning!
“Willow Village?” Old Man Ning had never heard of this village before.
The Butler explained, “Master, Willow Village is not that far away from us. You can get there on foot in 4-6 hours; if you travel by horse, it will only take about an hour.”
“That’s excellent. Ko Yang, go there quickly and find out whether the mother and daughter really live in Willow Village. And, find out at the same time where they get the mythical animals.”
“Master, it’s getting late. This might not be the best time to go. Why don’t I go first thing n the morning? I will bring some gifts with me, that ought to make things easier when I talk to them.” Ko Yang spoke up.
“Right, right. I was being too impatient. It’s inappropriate to visit at this hour, inappropriate!” Old Man Ning was very happy after the news. Happily he said, “Ko Yang, bring some fancy gifts with you tomorrow, be respectful. If there are any mythical animals, you can make the decisions and buy them.”
“Yes, Master!”
“If they are really raising mythical animals, go ahead and tell them that we will buy everything they have going forward!”
ch 32.2 – Danger Again
At around early afternoon, Cheng Xiao Xiao wiped away her sweats and shouted to her father who was still marching on, “Dad, we should head back. If we don’t, we won’t be able to get home before it gets dark!”
Cheng Biyuan stopped and looked at the sky before he realized she was right, it is starting to get late. He nodded, “Okay, let’s take a break then start heading home!”
GRRROWLL!
A loud roar come from not too far away. Cheng Xiao Xiao, who was just about to say something else, wasn’t able to make a sound before she was startled by the roar. It sounded like thunder next to her ears.
Level 3 mythical beast?
Before Cheng Xiao Xiao could imagine what a level 3 mythical beast look like, she was already being dragged away by her father.
Right then, little Yuteng appeared out of the blue, “Young master, I think that belongs to a Fiery Lion, around level 3 or 4. If we can collect that into the dimension, it will go up a few levels!”
Hearing Yuteng’s words, the father and daughter stopped. Panting, Cheng Xiao Xiao asked, “Yuteng, you think we can do this?”
Cheng Xiao Xiao was tempted. If they could collect the lion into the dimension, not only could they level up the dimension by a few levels, but the lion will further recognize her as his master and she can use it in battles in the future. It will both be showy and intimidating.”
GRRROWLL!
Another roar and a fiery red shadow burst out from the forest. Cheng Biyuan quickly moved his body in front of his daughter’s, “Xiao Xiao, you be careful!”
“Dad, I am fine!” The sweaty Cheng Xiao Xiao tipped her head and finally got a good look at the Fiery Lion, level 3 mythical beast!
Standing in the empty space below the trees, it reached the height of 2 meters and looked like a strong buffalo. The mane around it’s neck was of a fiery red color, each of it’s four paws were burning with fire. Its entire body exude a strong sense of power. Its eyes, wide like bells, looked like they could each you alive and it’s starting straight at Cheng Xiao Xiao and her father.
Cheng Biyuan said in a low voice, “Xiao Xiao, this fiery lion is at least level 3 or 4. I won’t be able to handle him.”
“Dad, let Yuteng take over!”
Cheng Xiao Xiao tried to suppressed her nervousness. They would have to rely on Yuteng now. She glanced over at Yuteng and saw her staring curiously at the fiery lion as though she had seen this kind of beast for the first time, “Yuteng, we won’t be able to outrun it now. We are counting on you!”
“Don’t worry, however powerful it is, I can collect it into the dimension!”
GRROOWWLLL!!
As though Yuteng’s words had enraged it, it let out another earth-shattering roar. It opened it’s mouth and a fireball shot straight at them.
The energy wave generated by the roar was too strong. Cheng Xiao Xiao turned pale from the vibration and fear for the beast arose.
Cheng Biyan charged toward the beast, the wooden rod in his hands generated a cold wind going toward the fireball. At the same time, he told Yuteng, “Fairy, I’ll distract him, you find a way to collect it!”
BOOM!
A loud noise and the fireball exploded, sparks could be seen everywhere and a few trees nearby were sent into the air.
Cheng Xiao Xiao was apprehensive, “Yuteng, quick….”
“No worries!”
Little Yuteng’s body flashed and she was directly above the fiery lion. Before it could spit out another fireball, she shouted, “Get inside!”
