Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss Volume 7

by North Night (夜北)

  [What had Ah Jing been put through?]

  [His current demeanor, was showing he had completely lost his mind!]

  Jun Wu Xie eyes continued to be fixed upon Ah Jing. In order to not agitate him into continuing to wail, Jun Wu Xie took a slight step backwards.

  Although she did not appreciate Ah Jing’s slow wits and naivety, she did not deny Ah Jing’s unwavering loyalty to Fan Zhuo.

  “You are Jun Xie?” A voice filled with mirth suddenly sounded behind Jun Wu Xie!

  Jun Wu Xie swirled quickly. A sinisterly handsome looking youth had suddenly appeared about seven steps behind her!

  And that was a face that Jun Wu Xie had seen before!

  “So you are Jun Xie? What a coincidence.” The moment the youth had seen Jun Wu Xie, he had begun to smile uncontrollably. His already incredibly attractive face became even more dazzling because of that smile.

  But, Jun Wu Xie was not exactly in the mood to appreciate anyone’s good looks.

  Because, standing before her eyes, was the same youth she had seen at the Chan Lin Auction House that day, who had stirred up a bloody storm when he slaughtered those men!

  Chapter 690: “Meeting Again (2)”

  Gu Ying tilted his head sideways and his eyes surveyed Jun Wu Xie from head to toe, as a sinister smile played across his lips.

  “Why? You don’t remember me?”

  Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes and she discreetly put up her guard.

  This person was more powerful than even Qiao Chu and the others, who was obviously from the Middle Realm. Although it was not certain whether the other party was from the Twelve Palaces’, this person had however previously at the auction house murdered a whole bunch of people without even blinking which revealed just how dangerous he could be.

  What was someone from the Middle Realm doing appearing here?

  Jun Wu Xie quickly noticed on Gu Ying’s body that he was dressed in the Zephyr Academy’s uniform for disciples, and on his chest, he was even wearing the jade emblem of the Spirit Healer faculty!

  “There’s no need to get so nervous, although I have said it before that your eyes are incredibly beautiful, but….. since you are Jun Xie, I will leave those eyes in your head for a while longer.” Gu Ying said with a smile, but his words however, sent chills up one’s spine.

  Jun Wu Xie started icily as Gu Ying carried on with his monologue. Although she did not seem to detect any murderous intent from the other party, she still did not dare drop her guard against him.

  When Gu Ying saw that Jun Wu Xie was not going to answer him, he proceeded to take a few steps forward.

  “Ah! Ah! Ah!” Cowering within the straw pile, Ah Jing started to wail in horror shivering violently when he saw Gu Ying slowly walking towards the kitchen doors. Ah Jing was trying to scramble deeper into the straw pile and in his hapless struggle, pieces of straw flew into the air!

  “Tsk. So you are still hiding here.” When Gu Ying saw Ah Jing’s wretched look, the wicked smile on his face widened even further.

  He turned his head to look at Jun Wu Xie while pointing at Ah Jing and said: “You recognise him?”

  Jun Wu Xie did not say a single word and her expression remained cold. She had not overlooked those heart rending wails that had erupted from Ah Jing who had already been driven crazy when he saw Gu Ying, that voice completely filled with terror.

  “Hmm? You can’t remember?” Gu Ying was smiling as he continued to advance in his approach. The smile on his face was one of glee as he pulled Ah Jing out from under the straw. He dragged the vainly struggling Ah Jing over the icy cold floor by the hair to come right before Jun Wu Xie.

  Ah Jing’s face was completely drained of colour and his mouth that was no longer capable of speech continued to let out a continuous string of pitiful wails.

  “You seem to look rather different from before.” Gu Ying rubbed at his chin as he stared at the mess that Ah Jing was and his eyes suddenly flashed with a sinister glint. He dragged Ah Jing behind him as he took big strides to go towards the huge water urn at the side, and grabbing Ah Jing by the hair on the back of his head, he pushed Ah Jing into the urn!

  Ah Jing struggled madly, but under Gu Ying’s overpowering force, Ah Jing’s feeble strength was reduced to become nothing.

  Gu Ying’s eyes reveled in the sight of the struggling Ah Jing, as a glint of cruelty lit up within.

  SPLASH!

  Just a split second before Ah Jing was about to drown in the water, Gu Ying finally reversed his merciless grip and pulled Ah Jing out.

  “Maybe like this, you will be able to recognise him?” Gu Ying was grinning as he held up the dripping wet and pale faced Ah Jing before Jun Wu Xie.

  The water from the urn had washed the dirt off Ah Jing’s face. That fairly fine featured looking face was pushed right before Jun Wu Xie’s eyes and the face was filled with terror, completely ashen.

  “What do you want?” Jun Wu Xie asked, glaring coldly at Gu Ying.

  Gu Ying replied with a laugh: “I heard that this kid had spoken badly of you quite a bit before. So….. I cut off his tongue.” Gu Ying placed his other hand under Ah Jing’s jaw and forced his mouth open, to reveal the short stump left of his severed tongue.

  Chapter 691: Meeting Again (3)

  “Happy?” Gu Ying was looking at Jun Wu Xie as his dark black eyes danced with cruelty.

  Jun Wu Xie finally knew under whose hands Ah Jing’s injuries had come from. She remained staring icily at Gu Ying and completely disregarded his words of provocation.

  Gu Ying paused a moment.

  “Seem like you aren’t too satisfied. But well….. people like these are just disgusting. Why don’t I help you kill him?” Gu Ying’s hand shifted to clasp his hand around Ah Jing’s neck and he tightened his grip!

  Ah Jing’s face immediately turned purple!

  “No need.” Jun Wu Xie finally spoke. “Let him go.”

  She did not think Gu Ying was truly trying to help her to vent out her frustrations. Moreover, although there had been many rumours spread about her in the Zephyr Academy at that time, not a single one had originated from Ah Jing’s mouth. He had merely believed those malicious rumours and developed a sense of enmity against her. If Gu Ying expected her to believe that he was tormenting Ah Jing for his defamation of her name just like this, that would be such a joke!

  What he really seeked, was not to satisfy Jun Wu Xie, but to sew of he can elicit fear to show in her eyes.

  Gu Ying gave in to the request and released his hand and dress air rushed immediately into Ah Jing’s lungs. Ah Jing sat up up quickly and clutched at his chest, once again attempting to scramble in complete terror to go hide in the furthest corner at the back of the kitchen.

  Gu Ying gave Ah Jing one glance and he raised up his foot to stomp down hard on Ah Jing’s belly!

  “Did I say you can go?” Gu Ying asked Ah Jing, his eyes narrowing dangerously.

  Ah Jing who had already lost his mind, was however still driven by that incredibly cruel pair of eyes into an uncontrollable shivering mass, as his face turned unbelievably pale, and he did not dare move anymore.

  Gu Ying turned to face Jun Wu Xie once more and said with a big smile on his face: “Nevermind, I shouldn’t be dirtying my hands with such trash. If you feel that it is better to leave him alive, I’ll spare him. I just received news that you were back and I had immediately rushed over to come see you. I have not introduced myself yet. My name is Gu Ying, and I have just been admitted into the Spirit Healer faculty recently. From today onwards, I will be your junior and I am looking forward for my senior to guide me in future.”

  [Junior?] Jun Wu Xie’s lips curled up into a very slight sneer.

  “This was under Gu Li Sheng’s advice and I would implore Senior to not reject me.” Gu Ying had noticed Jun Wu Xie’s unwelcoming demeanor against him but he completely disregarded it.

  [That sparkling pair of eyes with its chilly gaze
, they were just as moving as when he has last seen them back at the Chan Lin Auction House.]

  [But…..]

  [What a shame, she needs to remain alive for awhile more. Those eyes, he will not be able to dig them out yet!]

  “You want to learn the Spirit Healing Technique?” Jun Wu Xie caught the meaning behind Gu Ying’s words.

  “That’s right.” Gu Ying replied, smiling easily.

  “Release him first.” Jun Wu Xie said, looking at Ah Jing who was under Gu Ying’s foot.

  Gu Ying instead replied: “I know my Senior doesn’t like to stay in the dormitory and my Senior likes this little yard in the bamboo grove. If my Senior really wants to, you can just stay here. And in order to allow me to remain close to my Senior, I will naturally stay here as well. This piece of trash seemed to have served as a servant here at this place before, I’ll just let him continue to remain here to serve me and Senior then.”

  It was rather obvious Gu Ying had before Jun Wu Xie’s return, dug out everything there was to know about Jun Wu Xie in the Zephyr Academy.

  He even knew very well of Ah Jing’s misdeeds.

  Jun Wu Xie stared at Gu Ying. Although she had learnt how to temporarily raise her power to the purple spirit, she knew she was still not a match for Gu Ying. If she made any rash moves there and then, she’s afraid that the one defeated would most definitely be her!

  “Do as you wish.” Jun Wu Xie said indifferently and immediately turned to leave, unwilling to look at Gu Ying for a moment longer.

  With Gu Ying’s appearance, it made Jun Wu Xie realize, that he could very possibly be from the Palace that was cooperating with Ning Rui, just like those two men in the Cloudy Peaks previously.

  Volume 7

  Chapter 692: “Meeting Again (4)”

  Having people from the Twelve Palaces appear in the Zephyr Academy and it happened at a time that coincided with Fan Qi’s sudden death. From these points, it was reasonable to think that Fan Qi’s death might not be as simple as it being just the result from Ning Rui’s plot alone. The Twelve Palaces themselves must have been involved as well!

  Little wonder that Ning Rui would make his move so suddenly.

  Jun Wu Xie walked out without a word, but in her heart, she was constantly analyzing all that was happening before her eyes.

  Gu Ying’s appearance here had been unexpected. And from the clues he had unwittingly divulged, Jun Wu Xie guessed that the reason he had come here and revealed himself, with such a laughable and ludicrous line of reasoning saying she was his Senior, told her that his intention was to coax her into imparting the Spirit Healing Technique to him.

  The Spirit Healing Technique was originally created by Gu Li Sheng and even in the Middle Realm, no one knew anything about it. The technique’s power would greatly entice any of the powers of the Middle Realm and after Jun Wu Xie successfully improved the Spirit Healing Technique, she suddenly found herself becoming Gu Ying’s target.

  The Zephyr Academy had currently been turned into a huge melting pot of chaos.

  Jun Wu Xie laughed to herself in her mind.

  [It is a gamble on the Zephyr Academy’s fate, and the winner is still yet to be decided!]

  Gu Ying watched Jun Wu Xie leave, and he lifted his foot and kicked Ah Jing to the side. The smile filled with mirth gradually faded from his face and it was slowly replaced but an unsuppressable murderous aura.

  “That really….. left a bad taste in my mouth.” Gu Ying said softly to himself. He glanced at Ah Jing briefly and then turned to depart from the little bamboo grove.

  “Young….. Young Master Gu…..” Waiting by the doors leading into the dwelling within the little bamboo grove, was a youth dressed in the Zephyr Academy’s uniform. He was jittery and trembling with fear when he saw Gu Ying coming out through the doors, and his eyes were filled with undisguised terror.

  Gu Ying looked at him and suddenly flashed him a brilliant smile. Before the youth could even react, Gu Ying suddenly raised up his hand and clutched at the youth’s throat!

  A sharp snap resounded in the air and the youth did not even have time to struggle before his jugular was crushed. The white of the bones stuck out through the flesh around the crushed neck, and a great flow of bright red blood erupted from the wounds, completely covering over Gu Ying’s hand.

  Gu Ying drew in a deep breath, breathing in the thick pungent stench of blood, and the smile on his face grew more brilliant.

  “Now, I’m feeling better.”

  Only such senseless slaughter, could give him such euphoric feelings!

  The satisfied Gu Ying dumped the dead youth carelessly onto the ground and strode off quickly with wide steps.

  Lying in his own pool of blood, the youth had even till the point of his death, not known how he had brought about his own death.

  Gu Ying went directly to Ning Rui’s office and when Gong Cheng Lei, who had been standing guard outside saw Gu Ying, he hurriedly lowered his head and stepped to one side.

  Gu Ying did not even look at him and just pushed the door to enter the office directly.

  This office had originally belonged to Fan Qi and after his death, the ownership had quickly changed, becoming Ning Rui’s. Ning Rui was currently sitting behind the table and was staring blankly at a box filled with bone ash placed upon the table’s surface.

  When he heard footsteps, Ning Rui looked up. He saw Gu Ying strutting in through the door, with no visible expression on his face.

  Bringing Gu Ying into the Zephyr Academy, had been his ultimate last resort. But Gu Ying’s actions in the recently past days, had even terrified him.

  It had not even been a month into Gu Ying’s arrival at the Zephyr Academy when more than fifty disciples of the Zephyr Academy had already died at his hands. Those disciples had never crossed Gu Ying, but Gu Ying had been feeling rather bored and those disciples had suddenly turned into wandering ghosts.

  Ning Rui had met his fair share of cruel people, including himself. But none of them made him feel so creeped out like Gu Ying did.

  In Gu Ying’s eyes, with the exception of himself, no one else was human, but just distractions to relieve him of his boredom.

  The most scary people in the world, were people who did not see a life as a life, like him.

  Ning Rui did not know anymore, whether his decision to bring Gu Ying into the Zephyr Academy was right or wrong.

  Volume 7

  Chapter 693: “Meeting Again (5)”

  “You saw Jun Xie?” Ning Rui asked, spotting Gu Ying’s blood stained hand out of the corner of his eye. The blood was still wet and several drops of it had dripped onto the floor.

  Gu Ying sat down on a chair on the side and he propped both his legs up onto the desk. He then looked at Ning Rui lazily and said: “I did, turned out he’s an old acquaintance.”

  Ning Rui’s heart jumped and he looked at Gu Ying, his face quizzical.

  Gu Ying laughed: “Such a shame, I had not thought he would turn out to be Jun Xie.”

  Ning Rui did not dare say anything.

  “I will be staying at the bamboo grove for awhile. You go look into Fan Zhuo’s whereabouts on your own, and if to need me to act, I will most definitely not refuse.” Gu Ying told Ning Rui.

  “Alright.” Ning Rui nodded warily.

  “Only Gu Li Sheng and Jun Xie need to remain behind in the Zephyr Academy and the rest can be sent to the Heaven’s End Cliff. When do you intend to carry that out?” Gu Ying asked Ning Rui, suddenly turning his gaze, as he rested his chin in his hand. “Fan Qi has been dead for quite some time and the Zephyr Academy is now under your sole control. How long more do you intend to drag this?”

  Gu Ying was beginning to get a little impatient.

  Ning Rui gulped and hastened to reply: “I am not dragging my feet. But….. Wen Xin Han is currently still here in the Zephyr Academy. I had originally planned to frame and put the blame for the murder of Fan Qi onto Fan Jin’s head which would have allowed me to get rid of Fan Jin at t
he same time before I spread the news of Fan Zhuo’s death after. I would have been able to legitimately become the Zephyr Academy’s Headmaster and have deployed all the disciples here to go to the Heaven’s End Cliff. But Wen Xin Han had returned right at that moment and taken Fan Jin under his protection. With him present, if I am to do anything too extreme, with his position as the honourary dean, he has the authourity to stop me.”

  The reason Ning Rui had still not made his move, was not because he found his conscience, but it was due to the fact that under the honourary dean’s watchful eyes, his actions had been curtailed.

  Gu Ying’s brow creased up. He had seen Wen Xin Han. Although he was already an old man past sixty, he was actually a purple spirit!

  Although Gu Ying was able to temporarily raise his spirit power to the purple level, there would nevertheless still remain a certain gap of disparity between his power and that of a true purple spirit. Even as brazenly arrogant as he was, he still did not dare to confront Wen Xin Han in a fight.

  “Didn’t you tell me Wen Xin Han possessed an indigo spirit?” Gu Ying retorted impatiently.

  The Lower Realm had not seen a purple spirit in the past century. Where had this Wen Xin Han popped out from?

  “That….. I do not really know. He really was an indigo spirit. I do not know how he had suddenly broken through to the purple spirit.” Ning Rui said helplessly.

  Wen Xin Han’s unexpected arrival had completely messed up their plans and only Gu Ying alone from his group had come to the Zephyr Academy. The other few companions who had been together with Gu Ying were not around and with just Gu Ying’s power, it wouldn’t be quite enough to take on a true purple spirit.
