I Can See Through All Things Information

Chapter 294: Chapter 217: The Inside Story and Confession

“Master, I see that Miss Fang Rou’s injuries are not simple. They seem to be caused by a knife wound.

Moreover, that Lord Fang Tao has profound cultivation, having reached the realm of Internal Organs Small Success. Whoever injured them must be no ordinary person.”

After a moment of silence, Lu Qing said.

His superpower allowed him to see through the information of all things in the world.

However, the information he gleaned was not infinite and came with a certain level of randomness.

Just like this time, he couldn’t discern the cause of Miss Fang Rou’s injuries from Lord Fang Tao and the others.

...
“Whoever it may be, as doctors, we’ve always focused solely on treating diseases and saving people. As for feuds and grudges, it’s best to stay out of them if possible,” the elder doctor said.

“Disciple understands,” Lu Qing nodded.

He felt the unique aura enveloping the surroundings and could not help but praise, “Master, your innate domain is truly marvelous. I wonder when I’ll be able to reach such a realm.”

“Quit your flattery. Your talent far exceeds mine, and with the revival of spiritual energy imminent, it probably won’t be long before you catch up to my realm,” Elder Doctor Chen chided with a laugh.

Lu Qing’s cultivation talent was very clear to him.

He even began to suspect that his disciple’s delay in entering the Innate Realm was not because of an inability to breakthrough, but a deliberate choice.

Otherwise, it made no sense that he had only taken a few months to progress from barefoot beginner to stepping into the Internal Organ Realm.

It was unreasonable that after two years, he couldn’t even break through into the Innate Realm.

Nevertheless, Elder Doctor Chen knew that Lu Qing always had his own plans regarding cultivation, so he had not inquired further.

After the master and disciple chatted for a while, they each went to sleep.

As for Little Yan, she had already fallen asleep holding Little Li, and Wei Zian was also asleep.

Ma Gu was responsible for keeping watch during the night, and it would be Lu Qing’s turn to relieve him in the latter half of the night.

After all, caution was necessary. When traveling, one must always be careful.

While Lu Qing and the others lay down to rest, Lord Fang Tao and his people were also whispering in the main hall.

“Master, now that we’re trapped here by the heavy rain, with our junior sister seriously ill and unconscious, what should we do if the people from the Flowing Cloud Sect catch up?”

The disciple named Da Shi whispered.

“They probably won’t,” Fang Tao pondered for a moment before replying. “Our escape route was quite secluded, and the heavy rain has washed away all our tracks. It won’t be easy for the Flowing Cloud Sect to find us.”

“That Flowing Cloud Sect is really despicable. Our manor has offered them so much money every year, yet they turned on us at the drop of a hat. That damn young Sect Master even wanted to snatch our junior sister to be his concubine. Master, why didn’t you let me chop him down then!”

Da Shi said indignantly.

“If we had killed that young Sect Master, we would have been doomed without any chance of escape,” Fang Tao sighed. “The Flowing Cloud Sect is domineering with an Innate Ancestor at the helm. That young Sect Master is also the only great-grandson of the Flowing Cloud Sect’s Innate Ancestor. If he had died, in the rage of the Flowing Cloud Sect, I fear there would be no place in this vast world for us.”

“But now, even without killing the young Sect Master, we are still being hunted by the Flowing Cloud Sect. What’s the difference, Master?” Da Shi asked, puzzled.

“Without a blood feud, there’s still room for negotiation. I have some old connections with an elder of the Guiyuan Sect in Qing Province. As long as we can escape to Qing Province and pay the price to plead with the Guiyuan Sect to mediate, we might be able to turn enmity into friendship with the Flowing Cloud Sect.”

Da Shi remained silent.

Remembering the young Sect Master’s face that day, he wondered if his master was being overly optimistic.

Given the vengeful nature of that brat, after suffering such a loss, would he really be willing to reconcile with them?

In his view, it might have been better to have killed that scum that day; even if they all died in the end, at least they would have taken someone down with them.

Thinking of the scene where retainers and servants in the manor were brutally killed by the disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect, Da Shi felt a surge of rage in his heart.

If he had been strong enough, he would have liked nothing more than to storm the Flowing Cloud Sect alone to avenge those familiar guards!

But this was the master’s decision, and as a disciple, even if he felt unwilling, he could only comply.

“However, this is just my hope,” Fang Tao added. “If we are caught by the people from the Flowing Cloud Sect before reaching Qing Province, then we’ll have no choice but to fight for our lives.

Da Shi, if the Flowing Cloud Sect comes to the temple in the next two days, remember to distance ourselves from Old Doctor Chen and the others. They’ve been kind to us, and we mustn’t repay kindness with ingratitude.”

“Of course, Master. But what if the Flowing Cloud Sect insists on targeting Old Doctor Chen and the others?” Da Shi asked.

Da Shi couldn’t forget how ruthless and unreasonable the pursuers had been.

Fang Tao was startled and then clenched his teeth, “Then we’ll fight them, to give Old Doctor Chen and the others a chance to escape!”

…

Lying on the ground with his eyes closed, pretending to doze off, Lu Qing’s mouth curled into a slight smile.

The voices of Fang Tao and his group, though low, were like loud whispers in front of someone like Lu Qing with his advanced martial arts skills.

After hearing that Fang Tao and his group truly harbored no ill intentions, Lu Qing fell asleep at ease.

The night passed without any particular incident; all was peaceful.

There were no anomalies with Lord Fang Tao’s daughter, and she didn’t come to disturb Lu Qing and the others in the middle of the night.

Since Lu Qing was responsible for keeping watch in the latter part of the night, he also had the chance to prepare breakfast early, so when everyone woke up, they were greeted with an aroma wafting through the air.
