Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1295: Chapter 355: Jealousy

Thinking about Ye Lingyue becoming the City Lord, with someone she loves protecting her, and most excessively, she also became Zitang Su’s only disciple.

And as for her, no matter how hard she tried, her situation just got worse day by day.

Not only does she have the damned Ghost Valley Moth on her, but she’s also controlled by Yue Mubai and has to collude with the Demon Clan.

Hong Mingyue bit her lip, her eyes filled with jealousy and hatred.

For her, Ye Lingyue seemed like a natural disaster star, ever since she appeared, Hong Mingyue hadn’t had a good day.

”However, as far as I can see, this Huangquan City Lord position probably won’t last long.”

”I heard that this City Lord Meeting is actually to impeach her.”

”Both the City Lord and the Young City Lord don’t like her, reportedly nobody paid her any attention during the reception.”

”Isn’t that right, I heard her City Lord position was something she got for nothing,”

The maids chattered incessantly.

In a place like the Ancient Nine Provinces, even ordinary maids respect the strong and bully the weak. In their eyes, such a young and unsightly woman, where does she get the qualification to be a City Lord?

”Who told you all to gossip here, none of you have work to do, huh? The Young City Lord’s room needs a maid, who wants to go?”

As they were discussing, a middle-aged female housekeeper came over quickly. As soon as she appeared, all the maids quieted down, each of them huddling their necks, and no one dared to step forward.

They were all old maids, very familiar with the Young City Lord’s temperament.

The Young City Lord of the City Lord’s Mansion, being proud and usually speaking coldly to the maids, would hit or scold them when in a bad mood. They dared not bring trouble upon themselves.

The female housekeeper glanced at the group of women and her gaze fell on the unfamiliar face of Hong Mingyue.

Luo Qianche was attacked by the Whale People and was seriously injured. This matter was suppressed by City Lord Luo Qian, who only said that the Young City Lord was in poor health and needed care.

After all, Luo Qianche had always claimed to be of the Water God’s bloodline. If it was known she’d been attacked by the Water Clan she’d always controlled, the credibility of the Water God’s legend would be greatly reduced, which was clearly not what City Lord Luo Qian wanted to see.

”I am willing to serve the Young City Lord.”

Hong Mingyue was eager to find a way to get close to the City Lord and his daughter, so naturally, she didn’t want to miss this great opportunity.

Though she became a maid, she successfully left the item entrusted by Shadow Concubine in the City Lord’s living quarters, but later found out that the City Lord had nineteen concubines and rarely stayed in the living quarters.

Thus, the item had no use.

The Shadow Concubine had also secretly instructed her to find a way to place that item on the City Lord’s person.

Hong Mingyue was just a new maid, if she didn’t seize the opportunity, how could she meet the City Lord? She could only find a way through Luo Qianche to approach the City Lord and make contact with the Demon Clan from Gold City.

”You are new here, and you seem to be quite clever, come with me, and remember, keep your mouth shut.”

The female housekeeper glanced at Hong Mingyue, seeing her beauty and proactiveness, she led her towards Shuixiang Garden where Luo Qianche lived.

As they approached Shuixiang Garden, they heard a series of pleas and shattering sounds inside.

Luo Qianche, with disheveled hair, was beating and scolding a maid.

The ground was covered with broken mirrors.

”Young City Lord, you mustn’t!”

The female housekeeper hurriedly stepped forward to stop Luo Qianche.

Luo Qianche was still bound with bandages, her face covered in sinister wounds, and her right eye was patched with gauze. In her anger, the blood had seeped through the gauze, making her look sickly and obsessive.

Compared to the smug Young City Lord from earlier at the city gate, she was a completely different person.

It’s no wonder, in just half a day, from an energetic and beautiful Young City Lord, she turned into a one-eyed cripple; anyone would find it unbearable, let alone someone as proud as Luo Qianche.

”Get out of my way, this wretched maid said I’ve lost my right eye. She’s lying, she must be lying.”

After being rescued, the City’s doctors quickly fed her Elixir Pills and some blood tonic soups. As a Martial Artist, her health was robust, and she soon awoke.

But once awake, her right eye was in complete darkness, not only that, but her whole body was in immense pain. She remembered being attacked by Whale People.

”Young City Lord, you must take care of yourself. For your injuries, the City Lord will surely find a way to heal you. The Whale People who harmed you have all been killed by the City Lord, you should calm down.”

The female housekeeper tried to soothe Luo Qianche.

”Heal, can blindness be healed? Those despicable beasts dared to betray me... Just a few hundred worthless lives, how can they compare to my eye?”

Luo Qianche, hearing this, not only didn’t calm down, but her temper flared even more.

The thought of having to live with a useless eye infuriated Luo Qianche, making her wounds ache all over.

”Young City Lord, please don’t be angry, actually, I have a method that might help you. I heard there’s a way called eye replacement, as long as you find suitable eyes and a high-level Alchemist to refine them, it can make a fake eye like a real one. By this method, you could regain your right eye.”

Just as Luo Qianche was fuming, Hong Mingyue kneeled nearby and spoke.

Even though it was their first meeting, Luo Qianche’s demeanor quickly made Hong Mingyue realize that this Young City Lord of Water City was no simple character.

This woman was someone who would stop at nothing for her benefit. In her eyes, besides herself, everyone else was ants.

Such a person was not difficult to please.

”Oh? Is there really such a method? I haven’t seen you in the mansion before, you must be new, how do you know about eye replacement?”

Luo Qianche, hearing there might be a way to save her eye, was surprised and glanced at Hong Mingyue.

Only then did she notice this woman was quite lovely, unlike any ordinary maid, making her somewhat suspicious.

”I am from Qing Province. Before coming to the Ancient Nine Provinces, I was part of the Beiqing Pill Palace, Qing Province’s largest Alchemist organization. The eye replacement method I heard about there, and I know a thing or two. If the Young City Lord wants an eye replacement, I can assist.”

Hong Mingyue inherited Chen Hongru’s cultivation and some memories through the Joyful Union Skill.

Chen Hongru lived for hundreds of years, and indeed there were related records in some of his books and the secret records of the Pill Palace.

”Congratulations, Young City Lord, let me go and find a suitable candidate for you right away.”

The female housekeeper quickly said.

”No, I already have someone in mind.”

Luo Qianche couldn’t help but touch her now hollow right eye.

That wretched woman, the ugly woman Di Shen fancies, her looks are mediocre, but does she not have a pair of very beautiful eyes?

In Luo Qianche’s mind, Ye Lingyue’s eyes flashed.

Crystal clear, her jet-black eyes that no man or woman could look away from.

She decided, if she could really replace her eye, she would take that worthless City Lord’s eye!
