348: Anti-Heaven Alliance

Inside the City Lord’s Mansion.

The seat where the City Lord originally sat had been dismantled by Lin Ang.

In his view, everyone in the Holy Mother Sect was equal, with no distinction of status, only different levels of morality.

Therefore, he wanted to build this place like the Holy Mother Sect, where everyone was equal.

This meant that the seats here, which were categorized by social standing, could naturally be removed.

He found a place for Miss Ye, who had helped him before.

Lin Ang and her father were looking after the woman’s condition.

By this time, Miss Ye’s father understood that he had been spared because of his daughter.

Given Lin Ang’s fierce reputation, although Lin Ang’s attitude was very good, Miss Ye’s father dared not utter a sound from beginning to end.

It was best to have as little contact as possible with such a murderous individual.

Lin Ang looked at Miss Ye at this moment, feeling a little surprised.

Because with his strength, he could clearly perceive that Miss Ye’s body was recovering at an extremely fast rate.

In just a short while, she had been pulled back from the brink of death.

And as her body continued to recover, the speed of recovery also became faster and faster.

Lin Ang felt that even if he left her alone, she would be able to fully recover on her own in not too long.

Such an anomaly, besides Lord Zhao, was the third case he had witnessed.

Perhaps when Miss Ye woke up, he could ask her what was going on.

“The physician is here!”

A shout came from outside; it was the City Lord’s voice.

Lin Ang said, “Come in.”

As his words fell, the City Lord brought in a trembling old man with a goatee, carrying a medicine box, who then walked in.

The old man himself certainly didn’t want to come, but when that knife was held to his neck, he instantly changed his mind.

As he walked, seeing the corpses everywhere and the horrific scene in the courtyard, the old man grew more and more afraid.

By the time he reached Lin Ang, his legs had turned to jelly.

He was about to kneel before Lin Ang on the spot, but Lin Ang stopped him.

Lin Ang was still very kind to those with whom he had no grievances.

Lin Ang helped him up, led him to Miss Ye’s side, and entrusted him, saying, “I trouble you.”

“Yes, yes, yes!” Lin Ang’s attitude flattered the old man, who quickly cupped his hands and said, “Sir, you humble this old man. It is my honor to be invited for such a matter, and I am grateful for your high regard.”

Lin Ang said indifferently, “It’s alright, it’s what should be done. If anyone should be thanking, it should be me thanking you.”

“Thank you, Sir.” He then proceeded to examine Miss Ye, “Then, this old man will first examine this young lady.”

Upon touching her, the old man frowned, clearly disbelieving that anyone could still be alive with such injuries.

Next, a flicker of surprise crossed his face, but his brows furrowed even deeper, and he muttered, “This shouldn’t be.”

As if unsure, the old man examined Miss Ye for a long time again.

Lin Ang asked from the side, “Old Sir, how is this young lady?”

The old man then released her hand and respectfully said to Lin Ang,

“To answer you, Sir, with such severe injuries, if it were an ordinary person, she would have died long ago.

But this young lady is different; her body seems to be self-repairing at an extremely fast rate, and I believe she will fully recover in no time.”

Hearing the old man’s words, Lin Ang was completely relieved and continued to ask, “Do you need to prescribe any more medicine?”

The old man shook his head, “No medicine can compare to the body’s own recovery.

However, this old man can perform acupuncture to stimulate blood circulation and prescribe a few tonic medicines, to be used both internally and externally.

This will speed up the young lady’s recovery, and there are no side effects.”

Lin Ang said, “Then I trouble you, Sir.”

“No trouble, no trouble.” The old man opened his box, took out silver needles, and began to prick Miss Ye in various parts of her body.

After doing all this, he took out simple paper and pen from his box, quickly wrote down a prescription, and handed it to Lin Ang.

Upon receiving the prescription, Lin Ang expressed his gratitude, “I trouble you, Old Sir.”

Then he threw the prescription to the City Lord, telling him to take it to get the medicine.

“Since that is done, this old man shall take his leave.” After finishing his task, the old man requested to be dismissed by Lin Ang.

“Alright, you may go. Also, City Lord, give him some reward money; don’t skimp.” Since the physician’s work was done, Lin Ang saw no need to force him to stay.

“Yes.” The City Lord assented.

Then, from somewhere, he pulled out a piece of gold and placed it directly into the old man’s box.

The old man dared not accept it and immediately tried to take it out to return it.

Lin Ang, however, spoke up, “It’s not easy to come all this way; just keep it.”

“Yes.” The old man accepted it, after all, even the City Lord dared not disobey Lin Ang’s command, let alone him.

The old man was about to leave, but the City Lord said, “Sir, I don’t know how to prepare medicine either, and the City Lord’s Mansion happens to have some. How about I take him to prepare it before he leaves?”

The City Lord’s Mansion had its own medicine reserves, and both the age and quality were much better than outside, so there was no need to run out to get them.

“Good, you two go.” Seeing the City Lord’s words made sense, Lin Ang adopted his suggestion.

Next, after getting the medicine and applying it, the City Lord took the old man away.

At the doorway, the old man still wanted to return the piece of gold to the City Lord.

But the City Lord was wealthy; what was a mere piece of gold? He had plenty of such things.

Not to mention with Lu Xin, even without Lu Xin, he would be too embarrassed to take it back.

Once outside, he simply waved his hand, telling him to go, go.

The old man had long wanted to leave, and as soon as the City Lord spoke, he bid farewell and hurriedly departed.

The City Lord sighed; he didn’t want to go back now either, so he simply stayed outside to carry out Lin Ang’s mission.

After several rounds of killing, he now only had seven or eight hundred men left, and whether he could succeed was truly uncertain; it was even possible for them to be ambushed and killed.

...

After taking the medicine, Miss Ye’s recovery speed was more than a notch faster than before.

After only three hours, her faint voice could be heard, calling for water, water, and so on.

Her father, who was beside her, quickly found water for his daughter and fed it into her mouth little by little.

“Cough, cough, cough!”

Miss Ye seemed to have choked on the water, coughed violently a few times, then opened her eyes and woke up.

Upon waking, she neither complained nor mentioned what had happened before, but looked at her father beside her, “Father, could you please step outside for a moment? I have something to discuss with this Sir.”

Miss Ye’s father naturally felt uneasy about leaving his daughter alone with a person like Lin Ang.

But his own life had been saved by his daughter’s relationship with the other party, so what could he do?

Thinking of this, Miss Ye’s father’s eyes were filled with helplessness, but he still listened to his daughter and walked out.

After Miss Ye’s father left, Miss Ye suddenly became serious, her demeanor completely different from just now, and even her eyes were tinged with a faint golden color.

She asked Lin Ang, “Sir, have you ever heard of the Defying Heaven Alliance?”
