Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 774: Chapter 773: I’ll Go Pee and Come Back to Fix Them

A striking red light pierced through the sky, and suddenly, a graceful woman appeared. Holding an ancient zither, she sat suspended in mid-air, lightly plucking the strings with her fingertips, producing a long, lingering melody.

The sound of the zither was extremely pleasant, and as spectators outside of the battle, they truly enjoyed it. However, only those involved in the fight knew how terrifying the murderous intent contained within the music was.

”The Red Moon Ancient Zither!”

This was a top-tier magical treasure from the Phantom Sound Pavilion, which Long Piaoying and the others naturally recognized.

With the arrival of Zhu Qingshuang, the situation was immediately turned around. She was already an expert at the Foundation Establishment Early Stage herself, and with the top-tier magical treasure, the Red Moon Ancient Zither, she was a formidable match even for those at the Foundation Establishment Mid-Stage.

Upon appearing, Zhu Qingshuang caught an opponent off guard, causing Junior Brother Wang to suffer severe injuries, and the tide of battle turned instantly.

With Junior Brother Wang no longer hindering them, Long Piaoying had no more reservations and fought Elder Qiu with all his might, quickly killing him.

What remained of Junior Brother Wang, who was no match for Zhu Qingshuang, was directly killed by Long Piaoying with a single strike, under his wounded condition.

Soon, all members of Hellfire were utterly vanquished.

Seeing the corpses of Hellfire disciples scattered all over, Ye Haochuan was visibly excited. With so many people, there had to be some valuable items on someone, right? Cleaning up the battlefield was the easiest way to get rich.

”Ye Haochuan, go and treat the injured!” Just as Ye Haochuan was about to collect the storage rings, he heard Long Piaoying instruct him directly.

Among the Innate disciples from the Ancient Martial Arts Sect, more than half had died or were injured.

Damn, when did I become a doctor?

Feeling annoyed, Ye Haochuan responded with a forced smile, ”Immortal Aunt, I’ll just go take a leak and then I’ll come back and treat them.”

”Hold it right there, don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking.” Long Piaoying suddenly approached Ye Haochuan and whispered, ”This operation was assigned by the Ancient Martial Arts Sect. All the spoils of war must be returned to the Sect. Don’t try any tricks!”

Ye Haochuan’s pilfering was not a new occurrence, and previously, when Long Piaoying was alone, it had been overlooked. This time was different; with a large group of Innate disciples around, if Ye Haochuan took some spoils, these people would definitely not accept it. If everyone kept spoils for themselves, it would absolutely not bode well for the rule of the Ancient Martial Arts Sect.

Fuck, can it be true? After all the trouble I went through to save those kids, I don’t even get a hair?

Ye Haochuan instantly sank into dismay, making a bitter face, ”Immortal Aunt, I almost lost my life, do you really have the heart to let me return empty-handed?”

”Stop with your slippery tongue. The Sect has always tightly controlled the items from evil cults. The things you secretly acquired, the Sect turned a blind eye, but for such an overt mission, concealing spoils is absolutely forbidden. Otherwise, if you get caught, you definitely won’t be able to escape punishment!” Long Piaoying said sternly.

Isn’t the leadership of the Ancient Martial Arts Sect too pedantic? It’s okay to hide things usually, but not during a mission?

Ye Haochuan cursed inwardly.

Seeing Ye Haochuan looking downcast, Long Piaoying suddenly smiled slightly and said, ”Don’t be discouraged; your contribution to this mission was tremendous. Once I report this situation up the chain, you will receive a corresponding reward.”

”Really?” Ye Haochuan asked excitedly.

”Of course! Do you think I’m like you, always making empty promises?” Long Piaoying retorted with irritation.

”Hehe, could you give me a hint about what the reward will be?”

As for the rewards from the sect, Ye Haochuan was still very eager. Although he had already reached the Innate Mid-Stage, the treasures he could show off were still very scarce. Had it not been for Gou Canglan ”gifting” him a magical sword, he wouldn’t have had a decent weapon to speak of.

”How would I know? You’ll find out when the time comes, but it definitely won’t disappoint you!” Long Piaoying casually replied to Ye Haochuan and then urged him once again to go heal the injured.

Upon hearing there would be rewards, Ye Haochuan was already overjoyed and began attending to the wounded.

This fellow, when did he become so obedient?

Long Piaoying was somewhat surprised, but didn’t ponder it too much, instead turning to walk towards Zhu Qingshuang.

”Are you the disciple of the Blood Zither Heavenly Maiden, Liu Xianglan?” Long Piaoying asked softly.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Qingshuang’s expression drastically changed, and she said guardedly, ”Could it be that you also want to steal the Red Moon Ancient Zither?”

”Don’t be so tense, I mean no harm!” Long Piaoying explained, ”Senior Liu has always been my idol, and reaching her level has always been my dream. I just didn’t expect that the disciple of the mighty Blood Zither Heavenly Maiden would end up so disheveled, being deemed a traitor by the Phantom Sound Pavilion and chased everywhere.”

Zhu Qingshuang’s expression instantly turned extremely ugly. She gritted her teeth but didn’t know how to refute.

Long Piaoying was clearly saying that she had tarnished her mentor’s reputation, and she was unwilling to accept such an assessment, but she also knew that what Long Piaoying said was indeed the truth.

Her mentor, Liu Xianglan, was well-known back in the day, repelling the powerful fighters of Hellfire with just the Red Moon Ancient Zither, almost reaching Hellfire’s stronghold. Her prowess was unmatched at the time.

However, Liu Xianglan suddenly fell into an ambush by Hellfire and only escaped by exerting all her strength. Although she managed to escape, the injuries were severe and impacted her vitals. Shortly after returning to the Phantom Sound Pavilion, she passed away from her illnesses.

And what baffled Zhu Qingshuang was that from that time until now, over thirty years had passed, and her cultivation had not progressed the slightest. Hence, now being despised by Long Piaoying, she had no energy to argue back.

”I’m sorry, I may have spoken a bit too much, I just find it a bit regrettable... Anyway, I still need to thank you. If you hadn’t appeared in time, the outcome of this battle would still be uncertain.” Seeing Zhu Qingshuang’s distressed look, Long Piaoying quickly added.

Zhu Qingshuang could also tell that Long Piaoying didn’t mean to mock her, and managed a forced smile, speaking softly, ”Could I ask you for a favor?”

”Tell me, as long as I can help, I will do my utmost!” Long Piaoying sincerely said.

”Please don’t mention today’s incident to others.”

”That’s easy, not just me, but no one who came today will speak a word about your affairs, you can rest assured!”

Long Piaoying naturally understood Zhu Qingshuang’s reasoning, as she was currently being hunted by the Phantom Sound Pavilion, she probably didn’t want to draw their ire any further.

”Thanks!” Zhu Qingshuang gave a slight smile, then turned and walked towards Ye Haochuan to have him take her back to the Sub-Fire Dimension Realm.

Having just used the Red Moon Ancient Zither, it could very well attract the scrutiny of the Phantom Sound Pavilion, and she certainly preferred to leave sooner rather than later.

Ye Haochuan, unaware of the conversation between Long Piaoying and Zhu Qingshuang, also knew it was inappropriate to let Zhu Qingshuang stay here any longer. He immediately found a secluded place to send Zhu Qingshuang back, then returned to continue treating the injured.
