Liu Yue saw a guard hurrying over and whispered a few words to the middle-aged man opposite her. The middle-aged man then left the hall with a solemn expression.

Following Liu Yue's gaze, Hua Yun'er was also very puzzled. What did her father want to ask Doctor Qian for?

She pulled a maid aside and asked her what had happened, only to find out that her fourth brother had been poisoned.

"Poisoned? How could he be poisoned?" Hua Yun'er asked in surprise. How could Hua Zixing, who was perfectly fine in the Hua residence, be poisoned?

"Replying to Miss, this servant does not know," the maid replied respectfully.

"That's strange. What kind of poison could cause this, that we need to call Doctor Qian?" Hua Yun'er wondered. Doctor Qian was a renowned divine doctor in the Azure Dragon Realm!

He possesses exceptional medical skills, but for common poisons, he doesn't need to treat them at all.

"Poisoned?" Liu Yue raised an eyebrow, asking casually with a hint of doubt.

But in reality, he already knew that the poison was the same poison attached to the mechanical arrow.

This boomerang ended up hitting the head of the Hua family himself.

"Yes, I don't know what happened," Hua Yun'er muttered.

"I have some medical knowledge, I wonder if it will be of any help?"

Liu Yue said casually, "If there's anything I can do to help, please don't hesitate to ask, Miss Liu."

"You also know medicine?" Hua Yun'er was shocked once again. She never expected that Jun Qing not only had high cultivation but also knew medicine!

"I know a little." Liuyue nodded.

"You're really amazing," Hua Yun'er said earnestly. If her father knew that Jun Qing also knew medicine, he would definitely praise Jun Qing even more.

Thinking of this, Hua Yun'er said, "Would you like to come with me to take a look?"

After a pause, Hua Yun'er continued, "It's like this, the seal on the arena was broken just now. Although the monsters that escaped were captured and brought back, I'm afraid there might still be some that slipped through the net. I feel especially at ease when you're by my side."

Hua Yun'er's words were sincere.

“But, Patriarch Hua has already misunderstood me, I’m afraid…” Liu Yue hesitated before continuing.

"I'll talk to Dad! Besides, you're right here with me, there won't be any problems. And you're doing this to protect me." Hua Yun'er smiled and winked. "Okay?"

"Since that's the case... alright then." Liu Yue nodded reluctantly and left the table with Hua Yun'er.

Passing through pavilions and waterside terraces, Liu Yue followed behind Hua Yun'er, subtly observing the surrounding buildings.

Every rockery and stone is placed according to the formation, and even a single plant has its purpose.

The entire backyard of the Hua Mansion is a natural array; once you step into it, it's easy to lose your way.

This way of arranging the formation reminded Liu Yue of an old friend who had a deep understanding of formations.

A fleeting chill crossed Liu Yue's eyes as she thought of that person.

She possessed a photographic memory, taking in everything without leaving a trace, and quickly averting her gaze when Hua Yun'er looked over.

"If we go through here, we'll reach my fourth brother's courtyard." Hua Yun'er walked forward, skillfully avoiding the area where the formation was located.

Entering the circular archway, a completely different world unfolds before you—!

The courtyard was filled with people coming and going, carrying basins of water. As they passed by Liuyue, she glanced at them briefly, and the stench was the first thing she noticed.

Hua Yun'er had never seen such a scene before, and she almost vomited up her dinner from the night before.

He grabbed a maid and asked, "Where did this basin of blood come from?"

The captured maid was startled and quickly lowered her head, saying, "Yes, it's from the Fourth Young Master!"

"How...how could this be—"

Hua Yun'er's face turned deathly pale. She had thought that Hua Zixing had been poisoned by ordinary poison, but with so much blood, basin after basin, how could it be ordinary poison?

inside the house.

When the inhuman, ghostly figure of Hanako-no-Kage came into view.

Dr. Qian was terrified and staggered backward. He had never seen such a poison in his decades of practice!

"Doctor Qian, how is it?" Patriarch Hua asked impatiently. "Doctor Qian, rest assured, if you can cure my son, please don't hesitate to ask, and I will do my best..."

“Master Hua.” Doctor Qian looked away, unable to bear to look directly at him. “The poison in the Fourth Young Master has already spread to the area around his heart. We should start preparing for his funeral. Even if I can temporarily stabilize his life, it will only cause him more suffering.”

The body has become a pile of rotten flesh; living is nothing but painful torture, so it would be better to die.

"Dr. Qian, even you can't do anything about it?"

The head of the Hua family couldn't bear to see Hua Zixing's miserable state. Although Hua Zixing was useless, he still had his blood flowing in his veins and was his son! How could he just watch Hua Zixing die?

"It's beyond saving."

Dr. Qian shook his head and stepped out of the cabinet.

"Father, save me." Hua Zixing's voice was hoarse; part of the flesh in his throat had rotted away, and his vocal cords were being suppressed.

"Master Hua, may I give it a try?"

A voice rang out, not loud, but slightly deep, with a husky, magnetic quality, steady and powerful.

The head of the Hua family looked in the direction of the voice and saw Liu Yue standing behind Hua Yun'er. The voice... belonged to Liu Yue.

Hua Yun'er, who was walking in front of Liu Yue, turned around in surprise when she heard the sound behind her.

Doctor Qian also looked at Liu Yue in surprise. Liu Yue's reputation was at its peak, and it would be difficult for Doctor Qian not to know him.

"Young Master Junqing also knows medicine?" Doctor Qian asked in surprise.

"I know a little about it."

"I'm just trying to give you a friendly reminder, but the Fourth Young Master's poison has spread completely, and there's no hope of recovery." Doctor Qian gave Liu Yue a deep look, realizing that this young man was still too eager to show off.
