The Rebirth of the Cultivation Leader Qin Zhao as a Celebrity
Chapter 218 - 215: Then You Protect Me

Chapter 218: Chapter 215: Then You Protect Me

After dealing with Xu Cheng that day, Qin Zhao had sent Nan Sijin’s soul to be reincarnated.

Now, she only had Gong Leyi’s soul left, and it seemed that Gong Leyi could only be reincarnated in peace once the Lu Family faced retribution.

The last time Qin Zhao brought back Nan Sijin’s soul, she didn’t let Nan Sijin manifest, but Chu Yan could still feel the presence of a soul around her.

Furthermore, he could also sense the spiritual power within Qin Zhao. Chu Yan didn’t know it was spiritual power, he just felt that the power was immense.

He washed his hands several times with hand soap, his eyebrows slightly frowning, his eyes deep and profound. His long lashes cast shadows beneath his eyes, making it hard to guess what he was thinking.

After a while, Chu Yan came out of the kitchen, "I want to go with you."

"Why do you always want to come with me?"

"I’m worried you’ll encounter danger."

Qin Zhao stared at him for a moment, "Why do I feel you’re more likely to encounter danger? If something really happens, won’t I end up having to protect you?"

"Then you protect me."

Chu Yan said this with an air of righteousness.

Qin Zhao was almost driven to laughter by him, and finally said helplessly, "Don’t you have anything else to do every day? The hospital should have a lot of tasks, how come you haven’t been fired for taking leaves so frequently?"

"Because that’s my hospital."

"???"

Did she understand that correctly?

"It’s now half yours, marital joint property."

"...." She indeed understood that correctly! Damn! How could this guy be so rich?

The Imperial Capital First District Hospital is almost the best hospital in the country.

And it has been established for a long time. Just having money and medical skills isn’t necessarily enough to buy it, right?

Chu Yan had originally wanted to ask Qin Zhao if she needed any medicinal herbs. He had a huge herbal medicine repository, but then he remembered that the Soul Reviving Pill Qin Zhao was refining could even revive a dead sheep.

This was something modern science was completely unable to achieve.

So, the medicinal herbs Qin Zhao needed probably weren’t just any ordinary ones.

Besides this, Chu Yan wanted to go out with Qin Zhao to verify another matter.

-

Shangguan Qiu’s martial uncle was called Shangguan Jing, and it was said that everyone in their branch bore the surname Shangguan, and this uncle of Shangguan Qiu was also an elder of the Shangguan family.

Because the archaeological team encountered some sinister occurrences, and several members ended up in the hospital upon their return, Shangguan Jing was extremely busy, having only the option to meet Qin Zhao in the hospital.

Their hospitalization place was precisely the Imperial Capital First District Hospital.

Shangguan Qiu scheduled a time, and Qin Zhao went with Chu Yan to meet Shangguan Jing.

At the entrance of the hospital, they met Shangguan Qiu, who said with a grave expression, "The situation is getting more serious. Those who have been inside the tomb are starting to develop poisonous sores.

The first person who developed poisonous sores had part of them surgically removed by the doctors, but in no time, the sores grew back. After all sorts of medical tests, the blood and internal organs showed no problems, and now we even don’t know the cause of the poisonous sores."

Hearing this, Qin Zhao glanced at Chu Yan beside her.

"I didn’t know about this case, I might be able to help them later."

Qin Zhao nodded, then said to Shangguan Qiu, "Take us to meet your uncle first."

"Okay, he’s in the inpatient department."

Arriving at the dermatology inpatient department, they saw a middle-aged man sitting in a chair at the doorway.

This man was Shangguan Jing, his brow furrowed, staring at a pile of hospital medical reports.

"Uncle, this is Qin Zhao and her husband, Chu Yan."

Shangguan Qiu introduced them, having already greeted Shangguan Jing beforehand.

"Hello."

Shangguan Jing then looked up from the reports and sighed deeply.

"Are you sure you want to go to that tomb? You know the situation with our team members, right? I’m starting to wonder if this is some sort of sinister curse."

"May I take a look at the report?"

Chu Yan asked Shangguan Jing, noting the reports in his hands.

Qin Zhao said, "He is a doctor at this hospital."

"Ah?" Shangguan Jing was surprised for a moment and handed over the report.

"One of the blood test indicators is slightly abnormal, but the hospital’s common equipment might not detect it, I need to take their blood for more precise tests."

Chu Yan quickly realized something was amiss, his expression turning somewhat grave.

Shangguan Jing said angrily, "That doctor just now told me there was no issue. How can there be no issue if they have poisonous sores? What a quack! I knew there must be a problem!"

"Don’t blame him."

Chu Yan explained calmly, "The hospital’s routine equipment can’t detect it yet. I noticed the issue because I participated in an international aid team. We encountered a rare skin disease in a tribe in Africa, and the results from that blood test were somewhat similar to this."

"International aid team? Impressive!" Shangguan Jing’s look towards Chu Yan held a measure of respect.

Who would have thought this young-looking man had such substantial medical credentials? It’s not just anyone who can join an international aid team; you have to be a globally recognized doctor to be accepted!

"You guys talk; I’ll find some people to help take blood for tests."

Chu Yan informed Qin Zhao before quickly leaving with the reports. He was quite interested in the cause of the poisonous sores.

"Mr. Shangguan, your team members who developed poisonous sores, had all been inside the tomb? What exactly happened there, can you tell me about it?"

Listening to Qin Zhao’s inquiry, Shangguan Jing waved his hand.

"No need to be so formal with me. Since you are a friend of Xiaoqiu, just call me Uncle Jing. There were many sinister occurrences we encountered, I’ll tell you about them in detail."

Shangguan Qiu had mentioned before that Qin Zhao was a member of the Mystical Sect and had even saved her life.

Therefore, Shangguan Jing trusted Qin Zhao quite a bit and was ready to tell her everything.

On the other hand, he also hoped that this young woman would know when to retreat from difficulty.

"Originally, we didn’t plan to explore this tomb, but later we discovered that tomb robbers had broken into it, so we had to start the exploration and see if the tomb robbers had damaged anything inside.

The entrance we went through was the one the tomb robbers used. Not long after we entered, we heard pounding sounds from underground, as if someone was hammering the ground.

We thought it was the tomb robbers inside, so we hastened our pace.

Then, the team members started vomiting and suffocating one after another. I was walking towards the back and gradually felt a wave of discomfort. After realizing someone had fainted, I hurriedly led them out.

The same night we came out, people started developing poisonous sores, and more and more members who had been inside the tomb with me started to show symptoms."

Shangguan Qiu looked worriedly at Shangguan Jing, "Uncle, are you alright?"
