Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 1235: Cut Ties

With the end of the fifth episode, Feng Qing Rou and Zhao Xin were both startled by the shift in tone.

”Holy smokes!” Feng Qing Rou took a few deep breaths. ”I thought it was going to be a comedy, but there’s already a killing spree.”

Nodding, Zhao Xin was also caught off guard by the scene.

No wonder it was called a cleansing house. The title itself gave it away, but the audiences weren’t prepared for that at all.

As the two proceeded to look at the comment section, it didn’t have 99+ compared to the previous episode.

However, that was only natural because the fifth episode was more restricted than the previous.

Without meeting the requirement, the common folks weren’t able to access the fifth episode.

Despite not many comments, the two of them were still engrossed as the audience debated on the episode.

When one of the audience members remained clear-headed and brought the information to attention, almost everyone who was blindsided realized they had been tricked.

Not to mention them, even Feng Qing Rou and Zhao Xin were startled by the enlightenment.

”Damn it, this Xu Feng really knows how to deceive his viewers!” Feng Qing Rou gnashed her teeth. To think that she was previously angered by Li Sheng Xuan’s Green Tea role, only to forget about her entirely in this episode.

”What a clever deception.” Contrary to Feng Qing Rou’s anger, Zhao Xin was more concerned about the directing process. In less than a few seconds, they managed to completely misdirect and immerse the audience in the scene inside the mansion, which wasn’t something one could easily do.

”Ugh, this deception is infuriating!” Feng Qing Rou reckoned that the sixth episode would be the unknown man’s revelation.

Thankfully, they had access to 10 episodes in advance. Otherwise, she would really die from these cliffhangers.

”Which bastard decided to make each episode last only 2 minutes?” She hissed coldly.

Although the short drama was intended to be fast-paced, there should be a limit to how many cliffhangers one should drop.

Yet each episode had a cliffhanger stronger than the previous.

At this rate, Feng Qing Rou might just go crazy from waiting for more episodes.

While she was ranting, Zhao Xin had already clicked on the sixth episode.

She remained unaware that she had been hooked by Xu Feng with the fishing rod already.

Sixth Episode: Cut Ties

A few minutes prior to Xu Feng’s killing command, outside the mansion, Li Sheng Xuan heard the familiar voice.

She turned around and spotted a young man dressed in a scholar’s uniform.

”Bu—” Li Sheng Xuan was about to call him Bu Lai until the words from Xu Feng resounded in her mind.

[Bu Lai? How intimate must you be to call him directly by his name? Even I, your fiancée, is addressed as Young Master Feng only.]

She cleared her throat and quickly corrected herself. ”What brought you here, Young Master Bu?”

’Young Master Bu?’ Bu Lai appeared visibly stunned to be addressed in such a manner.

Wasn’t it supposed to be Bu Lai Senior?

Despite the bewilderment, Bu Lai kept his composure and chuckled.

”Nothing, I’ve overheard from someone that you came to break your engagement with Young Master Feng. He’s a hooligan, so I thought to come here and lend you a hand.” He explained with a wide smile.

’Heh, as long as you break off the engagement, I can finally get the chance to openly court you. By then, our Lethal Clan and Sheng Clan would merge into one. I will not just get the Sheng Clan’s influence, but even you will be under me.’ Bu Lai sneered inwardly.

He wanted not just her beauty, but her entire clan to be under his control. At that point, his Lethal Clan was destined to rise. By then, even the Royal Family must give them some face and possibly marry off another princess to him.

Just when Bu Lai thought he was going to be in the high moon, Li Sheng Xuan’s next words were like the judgment of a death sentence.

”I’m not here to cancel the engagement, Young Master Bu. Also, this is my private affair, so I do not need your help.” Li Sheng Xuan softly spoke.

”Also, please address me as Lady Sheng or Miss Sheng. I don’t appreciate being called Sheng Xuan Mei Mei.”

It was only now that she came to the realization that this Bu Lai might not be something good.

The matter of her coming here to cancel the engagement was impromptu.

Aside from Qiao’er and a few close people around her, nobody was supposed to know about her movement today. Yet this Bu Lai claimed that he heard about the information and rushed over to assist her?

She wasn’t that blind and foolish to not find something was amiss.

’Did Xu Feng already know something?’ Li Sheng Xuan turned to the mansion with a bittersweet smile. Without hesitation, she entered to inquire further, only to hear slashing and crying.

”Not good! Is he in danger?” Alerted, Li Sheng Xuan quickly hastened her pace.

End of sixth episode...
