Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss Volume 13

by North Night (夜北)

  Ye Mei did not give the little Emperor another glance after that, and immediately followed Jun Wu Yao outside.

  When Jun Wu Xie woke up, Jun Wu Yao was sitting beside her bed and looking at her smilingly. Seeing that handsome looking countenance immediately upon waking up, Jun Wu Xie’s heart involuntarily skipped a beat.

  Lord Meh Meh and the Sacrificial Blood Rabbit had usually always slept together with Jun Wu Xie but for some unknown reason today, they were both curled up into a ball and hiding in a corner of the room. When they saw that Jun Wu Xie had woken up, the eyes of the two naive beasts were suddenly filled with anxiety, looking like they had suffered great injustice and were seeking for their Mistress to protect them.

  However…..

  Jun Wu Xie had not noticed the plea in their eyes.

  “How long did I sleep for?” Jun Wu Xie asked softly as she looked at Jun Wu Yao.

  “Not long.” Jun Wu Yao replied with a smile.

  Jun Wu Xie got up and the little black cat at the side swished its tail lazily and yawned widely, languidly leaping onto the floor as well.

  Looking at the two naive little beasts huddled on one side and not daring to move, the little black cat’s face remained the same as it had always been.

  After getting up, Jun Wu Xie was made to have something eat by Jun Wu Yao before she immediately went to check on the little Emperor’s condition.

  She had just walked into the little Emperor’s room when she was suddenly stunned to freeze in her spot. The little Emperor who had been lying motionless upon the bed all this while without making a single sound had unknowingly woken up. What made Jun Wu Xie even more speechless was…..

  She was seeing the little Emperor currently chewing upon his blanket…..

  The embroidered blanket had been torn to a complete mess by the little Emperor and piles of the cotton wadding was scattered all over the bed, but the little Emperor was still innocently chewing upon the blanket, and was even going to stuff the cotton wadding that had fallen out into his mouth!

  Jun Wu Xie was still feeling a little stunned and she immediately went forward to pull the blanket away from the little Emperor’s hands.

  The little Emperor appeared to be shocked for a moment and his face turning to look highly aggrieved, he looked up at Jun Wu Xie and said timidly: “Yit blanky…..”

  “…..” Jun Wu Xie could not find the words. This was the first time the little Emperor had spoken after he was afflicted with Scarlet Blood, but the words he said did not give her any joy at all.

  [What do you mean “yit blanky”! ?]

  [Just how hungry was he! ?]

  “Have somebody prepare some food and bring it in.” Jun Wu Yao said to Ye Sha at her side as she rubbed at her temples.

  Volume 13

  Chapter 1270: “Yit” (1)

  The little Emperor sat mournfully on the bed, his big pair of scarlet eyes peeking left and right, as if he was looking for something.

  Jun Wu Xie looked at the little Emperor who was finally showing some expression on his face and her heart felt both happy and depressed at the same time.

  The little Emperor was looking a lot more lively than before and his eyes were no longer calm and expressionless like still water. But the places where his gaze wandered was rather strange, where he was either staring at the tables and chairs, or the decorative ornaments placed within the room. Jun Wu Xie could not help feeling if she was not standing there, the little Emperor would have already leapt over to them and already swallowed up those things that were inedible.

  “Little Jue.” Jun Wu Xie suddenly called out.

  The little Emperor did not give much of a reaction but just stood there on one side to look at Jun Wu Xie, suddenly raising up his eyebrows.

  [Little Jue….. Jue…..]

  “What else do you remember?” Jun Wu Xie did not notice Jun Wu Yao’s reaction but closely observing the little Emperor’s face.

  The little Emperor blinked his eyes and he lowered his head into his shoulders as he looked at Jun Wu Xie.

  “Yit…..”

  “…..” Jun Wu Xie was speechless.

  Fortunately, it was only a little while more that the servants in the Lin Palace brought in quite a spread of different dishes. Jun Wu Xie tried to get the little Emperor to come to the table and the little Emperor did not resist, allowing himself to be led, to finally sit himself at the table.

  “Eat this if you’re hungry.” Jun Wu Xie said as she looked at the little Emperor.

  The little Emperor looked up at Jun Wu Xie and then turned to look at Jun Wu Yao standing behind her. He hesitated for a while before he slowly lifted his hand and lowered his head to eat.

  “What is happening to him now?” Jun Wu Xie asked as her brows furrowed together. It was a good thing that the little Emperor had regained his awareness, but she could not help feeling that something did not feel right.

  Jun Wu Yao said from the side: “The Soul Calming Jade can become the spirit’s core, but that merely allows his spirit to be reconstructed. His spirit now is completely brand new, like a newborn where all his past memories are no longer present.”

  The little Emperor was still the little Emperor, but just without all his memories of his past, where he had become just like a newborn babe.

  Seeking for things all around him, that might fill up his deficient spirit.

  Jun Wu Xie had been about to say something when she discovered that the little Emperor had not only cleaned out all the food on the table, he had even stuffed the white jade cups used to contain water into his mouth. Jun Wu Xie rushed forward and reached her hand out wanting to remove it when she heard a loud and crisp crack. The hard white jade cup had been crushed by the little Emperor’s teeth…..

  The white jade cup had been inlaid with gold and was highly sturdy. Not to mention the teeth of a eight or nine year old child, even for a fully grown man to crush it with his teeth, it would have required him to exert an highly immense amount of strength.

  But that cup in the little Emperor’s mouth, had been brittle like white jade tofu, quickly being crushed up, to turn into dust.

  Jun Wu Xie could even hear the crisp crackling sounds clearly, as the little Emperor chewed up the white jade cup, and swallowed it down into his stomach…..

  After eating, his gaze then turned one more to fix upon a jade Ruyi placed upon the rosewood shelf.

  “Yit Ruyi…..” The little Emperor turned his head back and looking pleadingly at Jun Wu Xie.

  Jun Wu Xie really did not know how to describe the conflicted feelings and shock that filled her heart at that moment.

  [This kid…..]

  [Actually feeds on jade!]

  Jun Wu Yao stood on the side to admire Jun Wu Xie’s shocked expression, his eyes sparkling with mirth.

  “Although the Soul Calming Jade is meant to be used on spirit bodies, it would however still need to absorb energy. Jade items must surely contain some useful element in them for it and the Soul Calming Jade’s needs would manifest upon the little Emperor. For the Soul Calming Jade truly repair his spirit, it will need a consistent supply of energy.” Jun Wu Yao explained.

  Volume 13

  Chapter 1271: “Yit” (2)

  The Soul Calming Jade was not whole afterall, and although it was meant to be used on spirit bodies, the energy required by the spirit was too much and it could not be completed by just relying upon the Soul Calming Jade alone. The Soul Calming Jade needed more energy and it needed the little Emperor to absorb it from external sources for it to transform it into spirit energy.

  Not just jade stones, but anything that contained spirit essence would pose to be highly irresistible to the Soul Calming Jade within the little Emperor’s body.

  That was not the hunger of the physical body, but the emptiness of the spirit.

  “It will be harm his body?” Jun Wu Xie asked with a frown. Although she had a rough understanding of what Jun Wu Yao had explained, but for a human body, how could it possib
ly be able to absorb jade stones? Even if it had been crushed and chewed up, having fine jade stones within the stomach might very well cause some other problems.

  Jun Wu Yao walked forward and he pried open the little Emperor’s mouth who had his eyes still fixed upon the jade Ruyi.

  Within the little Emperor’s mouth, there were suddenly an additional two fang like teeth. Although they were not too large, they were exceptionally sharp.

  “This child, is already no longer just an ordinary human. All these things, will not cause him the slightest harm in anyway.”

  The little Emperor stared blankly at Jun Wu Xie, his eyes seemingly tinged with a trace of subservience.

  This was the first time Jun Wu Xie was encountering something like this. If those words had not come from Jun Wu Yao, she would not have believed them, but since Jun Wu Yao was the one who said it, then they couldn’t possibly be wrong.

  Looking at the little Emperor stare at the jade Ruyi with such longing in his eyes, Jun Wu Xie had no choice but to stand up and took down the jade Ruyi, and placed it in the little Emperor’s hands.

  The little Emperor carried the jade Ruyi in his hands, looking just like someone who had gone hungry for a long time and was holding a roast chicken excitedly. His big limpid eyes turned to look at Jun Wu Xie once more and when Jun Wu Xie nodded slightly, he brought the jade Ruyi up to his mouth and began gnawing upon it.

  ‘Crunch crunch crunch…..’

  Those sounds, made Jun Wu Xie’s heart jump together with them.

  When Qiao Chu and the others came over to find Jun Wu Xie, they saw the little Emperor hugging a half chewed up jade Ruyi sitting on one side….. ‘Crunch crunch crunch’, and the several youths suddenly found themselves stunned.

  “What….. What kind of a situation is this? Is the a new kind of snack made by the Lin Palace’s kitchen? Ha….. ha….. it really looks very much like a jade Ruyi…..” Qiao Chu said as a twitch started to tug at the corner of his mouth. He told himself that his eyes must be playing tricks on him as how could a tiny little kid like that possibly be gnawing upon a jade Ruyi.

  “I think, that isn’t really a snack.” Fan Zhuo said in a cool voice.

  “…..” Qiao Chu’s face was filled with surprise.

  “He’s recovered?” Rong Ruo came walking in from the side, as she looked at the little Emperor who had his head lowered down to chomped upon the jade Ruyi, to ask Jun Wu Xie in astonishment.

  Jun Wu Xie roughly told little her companions of the little Emperor’s current condition and the several youths really did not know how to react to that.

  The little Emperor seemed to be doing much better than before but….. it still wasn’t a full recovery!

  The jade Ruyi was almost as long as the child’s arm and the little Emperor had completely chewed it up without a trace left. His gaze then continued to search through the room and he seemed to have suddenly detected something as he lifted his hand to touch the jade pendant around his neck.

  Just as Jun Wu Xie thought that he was going to start to “yit” again, the little one did not show much interest towards the jade pendant and he released his grip upon it very quickly.

  “Looking at him like this, will he really be fine?” Qiao Chu scratched at his head, feeling it all rather strange.

  “Big Brother Wu Yao, besides jade stones, isn’t there anything more normal that would be able to raise the Soul Calming Jade’s power?” Qiao Chu asked.

  Jun Wu Yao smiled and replied: “Yes, there is.”

  “What is it?”

  “Ring spirits.”

  Volume 13

  Chapter 1272: “Yit” (3)

  “…..” Qiao Chu’s eyes bulged like a goldfish

  [What the hell! ?]

  [A human devouring a ring spirit! !]

  His gaze instinctively turned to look at Jun Wu Xie, as if the only one capable enough of achieving that feat would only be…..

  Jun Wu Xie shot him an icy glare, and Qiao Chu immediately sobered up.

  “It’s different from Little Xie here. Little Xie devours ring spirits to breakthrough her spirit power levels, while in this little fella’s case, it is to repair and patch his spirit.” Jun Wu Yao quipped.

  “In fact, as long as anything contains the essence of spirits, he would be able to eat it.”

  Jun Wu Yao’s voice had just fallen when the little Emperor who had been seated upon his chair suddenly seemed to have discovered something and he hopped off the chair to totter over to Rong Ruo. He then tilted his head inquisitively and looked at Rong Ruo’s face.

  Rong Ruo smiled sweetly at the little one.

  “Yit big brother.” The little Emperor said as he bounced excitedly.

  Rong Ruo suddenly found that she could not smile anymore…..

  The other people in the room were also frozen in shock.

  All he thought of was “yiting” and now he wants to eat a human! ! ?

  Fei Yan had in an instant shot forward to stand in front of Rong Ruo, putting himself right in between the little Emperor and Rong Ruo.

  “This one is not edible!” Fei Yan exclaimed anxiously.

  The little Emperor shrunk his head back into his shoulders and looked at Fei Yan guiltily, his tiny hands fidgeting nervously as they were clasped before his little chest, his shoulders trembling with his large eyes brimming with tears, a truly pitiful sight.

  Fei Yan, who had jumped out in the first instance to defend his “prospective future bride”, upon seeing the little Emperor teetering on the verge of tears, suddenly found his anxiety immediately evaporating into smoke, and his heart was quickly overwhelmed with such shameful guilt like he was abusing a tiny frightened animal.

  “Hey….. There’s no need to cry.” Fei Yan started to soothe in a hurry.

  It was still not that bad when he didn’t say it, but once he mentioned “cry”, the tears brimming within the little Emperor’s eyes immediately fell, that shamefaced expression upon his face with his soundless cries, looked every inch a little pitiful waif that had been taken advantage of.

  Fei Yan was feeling a little helpless and getting a little faint. [What did he even do?]

  This is brat here had wanted to eat his “prospective bride” and he had adamantly denied him by just saying just one sentence, why was he already crying…..

  Ever since he had unintentionally stumbled into that steamy scene, Fei Yan had tagged “future bride” onto Rong Ruo’s head. Although it didn’t feel much different on most days, but if one observed carefully, one would still be able to detect that Fei Yan was extra caring and gentle towards Rong Ruo.

  But the entire bunch of them had instinctively chosen to overlook it, and only Rong Ruo was the only one feeling helpless throughout it all.

  She had wanted to privately speak about it with Fei Yan but the always sharp tongued Fei Yan when faced with Rong Ruo alone, he would either run away disappearing without a trace red faced, or be in such a complete helpless loss that he was not even able to hear Rong Ruo’s words at all.

  After some time passed, Rong Ruo gave up on the idea of trying to explain it to Fei Yan and just left him to feel proud about it on his own.

  Fei Yan felt the highly accusing gaze from the little one and he was rather speechless. He was just protecting his future bride so what was he doing wrong? !

  The little one was able to even crush jade stone with his teeth so how could his future bride’s soft and fair flesh be able to withstand the little Emperor’s sharp teeth?

  Under that harsh and highly critical gaze, Fei Yan had no other choice but to dig out a small jade piece to stuff into the little Emperor’s hands.

  “Eat eat eat, don’t eat big brother, eat this!”

  Qiao Chu’s sharp eyes spotted the piece of jade and said: “Isn’t that the one you just bought and was going to give…..”

  Qiao Chu had not even been able to finish his words when Fei Yan’s dagger stare shut him up immediately.

  The little Emperor held the ja
de pendant in his hands and looked at Fei Yan hesitantly and blinked his eyes at him: “Don’t eat big brother, eat jade pendant…..”

  Fei Yan very nearly burst into tears and nodded while bleeding in the heart.

  “Yes!”

  The little Emperor immediately broke into smiles after getting his hands on something to “yit”, his hands clasping the jade pendant that Fei Yan had spent a great amount of money to get, and he went to hide in one corner and crunched away happily…..

  Volume 13

  Chapter 1273: “Gifts for You (1)”

  Watching the little Emperor eat so happily, Fei Yan’s tears were flowing like a river.

  “I just thought of one thing.” Qiao Chu said, rubbing his chin.

  “What?” Hua Yao said.

  “When we go to the Dark Emperor’s tomb, will we then bring the little one with us? Isn’t it said that the Dark Emperor’s tomb is filled with countless treasures and magical artifacts? The amount of jade there and things filled with the essence of spirit must be numerous. If the little one really needs to, it shouldn’t be a big problem to bring him with us, and let him feast till he is satisfied. Wouldn’t that be just great?” Qiao Chu said naively.

  “The Dark Emperor’s tomb is filled with untold dangers and having him with us then might not be safe for him.” Rong Ruo said with a slight frown on her face. She was not afraid about anything else about the suggestion, but just for the safety of the little Emperor. The few of them had been to the Heaven’s End Cliff and they knew just how dangerous the place was. It was already difficult for them to protect themselves in there, what’s more with a very young little Emperor with a weakened spirit tagging along with them?

  “In that aspect, all of you would not have to worry.” Jun Wu Yao said suddenly. “In terms of individual battle prowess, among all of you here, none of you is a match for him.” His eyes turned to look at the little Emperor who was still chewing on his jade pendant.
