Chapter 191: 189 Dugu’s message

Meeting with Chen Yifeng caused a subtle shift in Ye Qiu’s heart.

Every day, Ye Qiu pondered his moves, immersing himself so deeply that he often practiced until he forgot about time.

His life, which now seemed at ease, was in fact entangled by a series of shackles.

No wonder the old lecher preferred to stay on the mountain, unwilling to enter the bustling city, because he did not want to be entangled by worldly affairs.

This old fellow had managed to look out for himself, yet he dragged me into this worldly dust of taverns.

Now, with Ye Zi missing and no news from the eccentric, and being targeted by the men in black himself, he could not predict when they might strike.

In addition to protecting Shen Mengchen, Ye Qiu felt that he had quite a bit on his plate, Fortunately, Shen Mengchen was not in any immediate danger, but he still had to be cautious.

They say that a sage is as calm as still water, having achieved enlightenment, but striving to become a sage in this city is not easy, as there are always problems flooding in, keeping one busy with their resolution.

As Ye Qiu sighed, he realized his boxing was disordered and his mind unsettled. He could no longer continue his martial practice.

So he sat alone in a chair, gazing into the distance.

...

Since the news of the old master of the Shangguan family’s death spread, many covetous forces started making their moves, unable to contain their ambitions, wanting to swallow up the Shangguan family’s territory.

Shangguan Kun and Shangguan Peng were successively frustrated, facing joint attacks that nearly broke half of the Shangguan family’s foundation.

But ever since the article about the Shangguan patriarch being cured by a mysterious young man was released, the forces that had acted against the Shangguan family quickly retracted their claws and did not dare to act rashly.

The old man, who was obviously close to death, was saved, and those forces in the shadows cursed the person who had intervened.

Especially when Guan Mingyue published her article, it not only caught the attention of the medical community but also drew the eyes of many forces in the dark to the mysterious young man mentioned.

The Shangguan patriarch’s diagnosis was no major secret; many knew that he had suffered from a terminal illness. If even such a hopeless case could be resolved, it indicated the high proficiency of the mysterious young man’s medical skills. Consequently, many people wanted to meet this mysterious youth, hoping he could treat their own masters.

No one knew who this mysterious young man was, leaving them no choice but to negotiate directly with the Shangguan family in the hope of meeting him.

With the Shangguan patriarch recovering, Shangguan Kun and Shangguan Peng were not completely wiped out, naturally leading to a counterattack.

Especially with Guan Mingyue’s strategizing, the various actions taken by the Shangguan family soon retaliated fiercely against those forces that had tried to encroach upon their interests.

The Shangguan family’s moves shook the entire upper echelon of Capital City society.

Before, people only knew about the brothers Shangguan Kun and Shangguan Peng, but now they realized that the Shangguan family had another formidable figure, Guan Mingyue, a woman whose ability was respected by all. With such exceptional talent in one generation, especially Guan Mingyue’s methods, which were astonishing, people could only admire how she helped her eldest brother Shangguan Kun resume his duties and even earn great merit, while also starting to free Shangguan Peng’s company from its entanglements with the inspectors, even obtaining tax relief privileges.

All this was thanks to one person, Guan Mingyue. As many marveled at the depth of this woman’s strength and cunning, no one thought to kick the Shangguan family while they were down. Instead, they all had one thought in mind—to reforge alliances.

Especially after that article by Shangguan Mingyue, many people used it as an opportunity to contact her, either to express their attitudes or with requests in mind. Suddenly, the Shangguan household became lively with activity, attracting numerous high officials and wealthy merchants.

For a while, the Shangguan’s residence bustled like a marketplace, causing many members of the Shangguan family to reveal looks of surprise. They had not expected that Shangguan Mingyue’s tactics would be so powerful, instantly altering the situation for their family.

"Having the honor of witnessing Shangguan Mingyue’s grace, my trip here was not in vain. I hope Miss Mingyue will keep my words in mind, and if possible, introduce me to that master of medical skills," a middle-aged man said as he clasped his hands in a farewell gesture, nodding at Shangguan Kun and his two siblings before preparing to depart.

After the man left, Shangguan Kun and Shangguan Peng sat opposite Shangguan Mingyue.

In recent days, Shangguan Mingyue had been traveling back and forth within the Capital City. Both Shangguan Kun and Shangguan Peng had been watching and were quite curious about what methods their sister had used to rescue the Shangguan family from their precarious situation so suddenly.

Seeing the puzzled looks from her elder and second brothers, Shangguan Mingyue rarely showed a little girl’s demeanor and said, "I know what you’re thinking, but actually, I haven’t done much. You don’t have to look at me like that."

Shangguan Kun and Shangguan Peng really wanted to know the details, and Shangguan Kun laughed as he said, "If you don’t tell us, you’re going to leave us hanging with unbearable anticipation. What really happened? How did you do it?"

When Shangguan Mingyue shared the news of the day, her myriad charms became endearing in the eyes of her older brothers. She explained, "Actually, I just went as our father to visit those old leaders, gave them a check-up, mentioned someone could cure their ailments, and then I repeated our situation to them..."

Listening to Shangguan Mingyue’s explanation, Shangguan Kun and Shangguan Peng understood why those hidden powers no longer dared to strike at the Shangguan family. It turned out Shangguan Mingyue had made such a move.

However, the two brothers looked at Shangguan Mingyue with strange expressions and asked, "The person you mentioned, is it Ye Qiu?"

Shangguan Mingyue nodded.

Shangguan Kun and Shangguan Peng suddenly realized; apart from Ye Qiu, who else could cure the old patriarch’s illness? With Ye Qiu’s medical skills being known by those old leaders, it suddenly earned the Shangguan family face and resolved the current crisis.

But when the time came, would Ye Qiu really go to treat the old leaders?

"Trust me, I wouldn’t joke about the life and death of the Shangguan family. I have a way to get him to go," expressed Shangguan Mingyue with a determined look.

Shangguan Kun and Shangguan Peng exchanged glances. They had not expected that their escape from adversity was due to Ye Qiu’s influence. Though Ye Qiu himself was unaware, they knew they needed to prepare to repay this favor.

Ye Qiu was oblivious to the fact that the Shangguan family had escaped their predicament because of him. As Ye Qiu struggled to settle his mind for training, he received a call from Shangguan Dao.

Shangguan Dao rarely took the initiative to call him. With suspicion, Ye Qiu answered, only to hear Shangguan Dao’s rigid voice on the other end, devoid of much emotional fluctuation, calmly stating, "I’ve found a clue related to Dugu."

A clue about Dugu!

Ye Qiu’s heart skipped a beat. The one person he longed to meet was from the Dugu clan, and unexpectedly, Shangguan Dao had indeed found a trace.

Shangguan Dao revealed an address, and without even changing his clothes, Ye Qiu immediately rushed there.

Finally, was there progress on Dugu?

Ye Qiu’s excitement was beyond words.
