Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1253: Chapter 313: The Remarkable Sixth Sister-in-law

This time, even the heavens want to destroy him, Qin Xiaochuan!

Master, unknown parents, my wife whom I’ve never met, child, this disciple (child, young master) is incompetent, you’ll have to wait till the next life to see me again.

In the final moments of life and death, random thoughts flashed through Qin Xiaochuan’s mind.

Unexpectedly, when the dagger was in mid-air, a mass of black energy gathered at the manager’s forehead.

Suddenly, the dagger veered off course, originally aimed at Qin Xiaochuan’s head, and ended up stabbing into the manager’s left hand instead.

”Ouch!”

The manager let out a miserable scream, the dagger pierced through his left palm, and blood poured out continuously.

The guards who were watching the drama on the side were dumbfounded.

What happened to the manager? How did the dagger end up stabbing his own hand?

”Quick, find a doctor.”

The manager howled in pain, causing the guards to panic as they gathered around him to bandage his wound, leaving Qin Xiaochuan, who was about to be punished, behind.

Qin Xiaochuan was stunned for a while, eventually realizing that he had escaped a disaster.

”Wow, it’s true that lucky people have protection from the heavens. I actually escaped this. My ancestors must be blessing me.”

Reflecting afterward, Qin Xiaochuan found that he had broken out in cold sweat from fear.

If the manager’s stab hadn’t deviated earlier, there’d be an extra hole in his forehead now. He didn’t want to end up as some kind of human-shaped soldier, neither human nor ghost.

”Tch, quit flattering yourself. It was Little Evil Rabbit who saved you. Besides, you probably haven’t even seen what your family’s ancestral grave looks like.”

Just as Qin Xiaochuan was feeling lucky, a voice full of sarcasm and criticism floated to his ears, completely out of place.

”Who’s there? If you have guts, show yourself openly, don’t hide in the shadows, that’s no hero.”

Qin Xiaochuan thought it was someone from the City Lord’s Mansion returning, but looking around, there was no one.

”Where are you looking, ignorant fool.”

The voice came again.

Qin Xiaochuan instinctively looked down and saw two small beasts in the dim corner of the cell.

A black and a white little creature, both not much larger than a small teapot, looked just like the pet beasts the female disciples of Lonely Moon Sea liked to keep.

But... do pet beasts usually look at you with that kind of disdainful and scornful gaze?

Qin Xiaochuan was dumbfounded.

”Was it you two talking to me just now?”

”Of course it was us. If the boss hadn’t told us to find a way to help, I wouldn’t bother dealing with a brainless and powerless guy like you, it’s simply beneath me.”

Little Zhiyo wore a disdainful and contemptuous expression.

Who told Qin Xiaochuan to be the Fourth Senior Brother of that annoying Di Shen, among Di Shen’s few senior brother and sister disciples, apart from the good-tempered Wuyue (especially since she’s a great beauty), Little Zhiyo didn’t like any of them.

He was actually despised by a little dog?

Qin Xiaochuan felt upset.

”I say, where did this little mutt come from, who’s your boss, and how were you raised?”

”Fourth Senior Brother, don’t be mad, Little Zhiyo’s boss, who is also my master, is your Sixth Sister-in-law, Ye Lingyue. We are all her Beast Pets, just rarely appearing in front of outsiders.” Little Evil Rabbit feared the group of managers might return and interrupt the banter between Little Zhiyo and Qin Xiaochuan.

”Raised by Sixth Sister-in-law? Wow, besides healing and alchemy, she also knows Beast Taming?”

Qin Xiaochuan’s mouth hung open in shock.

Qin Xiaochuan didn’t understand Beast Taming, but he had heard that in Ancient Times, some people were born with the unique ability to understand Beast Language, communicate with Spiritual Beasts and even demon beasts, and could use beasts for their purposes.

At that time, there were even legendary figures who controlled hundreds of thousands of Beast Armies single-handedly, intimidating countless Super Major Sects.

But these were things Qin Xiaochuan learned from some ancient writings; he had never encountered it, let alone thought that Ye Lingyue had such abilities.

Moreover, these two little beasts in front of him could speak human words, clearly not ordinary creatures.

”Hey, Qin surname, why are you looking at me with that expression, I’m not interested in males. Rabbit, that manager got hit by your Curse of Calamity, he won’t be back for a while, let’s use this chance to rescue the Qin surname guy, so the boss doesn’t have to worry.”

Little Zhiyo pouted.

”No, I can’t leave yet. The City Lord’s Mansion feels filled with negative energy, and the bloodletting and gold injection method sounds like an evil side path, I even suspect that Lord Situ isn’t from the Human Clan. I will stay here first; you two go back and tell Ling Yue and Di Shen about what you witnessed today. Later, we can coordinate from the inside and outside and wipe out the demons in the City Lord’s Mansion in one go.”

Just when Little Zhiyo and Little Evil Rabbit were thinking of a way to break Qin Xiaochuan’s shackles, Qin Xiaochuan stopped the two beasts.

Earlier, in his panic, Qin Xiaochuan hadn’t thought much, but now that he cooled down, he recalled Luo Yi.

Could it be that woman also obeyed the City Lord’s Mansion because of some sorcery from Master Situ?

Looking at her expression and behavior, she indeed seemed like a Puppet.

Though Luo Yi made Qin Xiaochuan very dissatisfied earlier, out of camaraderie and being a man, Qin Xiaochuan thought he couldn’t leave Luo Yi stuck in enemy territory and do nothing.

”I agree with that, too. I feel there’s a strong Demon Energy in this City Lord’s Mansion, there must be my kin here.”

Little Evil Rabbit nodded after listening.

As a demon beast, it is more sensitive to Demon Energy than Little Zhiyo.

It had also noticed the different areas of the City Lord’s Mansion, and including that manager, there were many guards.

These people had darkened foreheads filled with Demon Energy, clearly having spent too much time with powerful demons and slowly losing their humanity. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be indifferent to the cruel business of human-shaped soldiers.

If left unchecked, before long, the entire Gold City and even the demon hunters within it would be in danger.

”You guys might have a point. But Qin surname, if you stay, it’ll be very dangerous.”

Little Zhiyo didn’t expect that the seemingly useless Qin Xiaochuan had some backbone.

But if it were Little Wuya or Little Evil Rabbit who were controlled, it wouldn’t leave its companions behind either.

”Little Zhiyo, you should go back and report the details to master, especially about the human-shaped soldiers. I’ve recently learned some medical skills, I can stay and help Fourth Senior Brother heal his injuries.”

Little Evil Rabbit weighed the situation; with its Curse Demon Technique plus some basic medical skills, it should be able to help Qin Xiaochuan overcome this crisis.

The two little beasts immediately made a decision to split up, letting Little Zhiyo first take the news back to Ye Lingyue and Di Shen.
