Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss Volume 19

by North Night (夜北)

  Jun Wu Xie’s brows creased up slightly, a terrifying conjecture suddenly rising up in her heart.

  “Young Miss, Elder Yue will be coming back soon.” As Jun Wu Xie was thinking things through, Ye Gu’s voice suddenly sounded from outside the secret chamber. Jun Wu Xie immediately retracted her thoughts and restored everything in the secret chamber to its original state, like nothing had ever happened in there at all.

  After Jun Wu Xie left Elder Yue’s study, she did not return back to her residence immediately, but made a detour towards Elder Ying’s residence instead.

  Elder Ying had been happily idling and feeling highly at ease over the recent period. In reality, he held no interest towards the scramble for power and authourity within the Shadow Moon Palace. Back at the time when the Shadow Moon Palace Lord’s health had deteriorated, he had joined in the struggle just to make things difficult for Elder Yue but now that the Shadow Moon Palace Lord had reacquired his control and authourity, the power held by the various Elders had all been reduced and Elder Ying could be said to be the happiest one among everyone, with more time freed up every single day.

  Chapter 1856: “Jun Wu Xie’s Revenge (5)”

  Elder Ying was at that moment sitting highly leisurely in his courtyard as he admired the flowers and sipped at tea when he suddenly saw Jun Wu Xie appear. He was slightly taken aback and his face then went on to break into a smile.

  “Kid, you have finally found the leisure to come look for me already? Oh right, do you know that Elder Yue committed a big mistake in the last few days and has incurred the disdain of the Palace Lord?” Elder Ying said with a laugh. He had heard about things concerning Elder Yue around and only knew that someone had stirred up trouble in Hill City that Elder Yue had been in charge of where not only the branch had been destroyed, they had even lost quite a number of disciples, which could be considered to have swept right across Elder Yue’s face.

  As long as Elder Yue was unhappy, Elder Ying’s heart would then be exhilarated.

  “At which point of time did receive news of your son’s death?” Jun Wu Xie looked at the smiling Elder Ying and then suddenly popped a question that made Elder Ying unable to smile anymore.

  The smile upon Elder Ying’s face froze up in an instant. He had been at such leisurely ease over the recent period but it seemed he was just trying to find some joy within suffering as the bitter end his son’s family had long been an indelible pain lodged deep in his heart and the hatred between Elder Yue and Elder Ying had stemmed from that.

  “Around ten years ago. Why would you ask about that?” Elder Ying asked with his brows creased together.

  “When you came to the Shadow Moon Palace, were Yue Yi and Yue Ye already in the Shadow Moon Palace?” Jun Wu Xie continued to ask.

  Elder Ying began to felt that something was not right and he straightened himself up in his seat as he tried his best to recall the past. It was after a moment before he said: “They were already here and Elder Yue brought them to come see me once. Yue Ye was very young then and she was mostly carried by people while Yue Yi had already gained an awareness of things but he seemed to be rather afraid of me, always lowering his head to not say a word whenever he saw me.”

  Due to the death of his own son, coupled with the fact that his daughter in law and grandchild had gone missing, the kind of turmoil affecting Elder Ying caused him to not pay much attention to the children in the Shadow Moon Palace.

  “Why are you suddenly asking me this?” Elder Ying was feeling that Jun Wu Xie’s words were hiding another meaning behind and his heart unconsciously quickened.

  “I went into Elder Yue’s study and I discovered a secret chamber within the study. Hidden inside that chamber, were things left behind from all of Elder Yue’s victims, and the other half of the Zhan Family’s jade heirloom you now hold was found from that place.” Jun Wu Xie said.

  Elder Ying’s entire body quaked, the despair and sorrowful pain in his eyes almost causing him to collapse.

  From the time he knew that the jade pendant had been found from Elder Yue’s place, he had already felt highly uneasy about it. Knowing full well that his grandchild and daughter in law could very possibly have already fallen victim, he had been unwilling to think that things were really that bad. He chose to rather believe that Elder Yue had coincidentally picked it up than to imagine that his grandchild had been brought by people into the Shadow Moon Palace, who had then been tortured to death under Elder Yue’s hands.

  All of that, to an old man who had already lived past half a century, would almost be a mind blowing calamity to him!

  “What are you trying to say…..” Elder Ying’s voice was trembling slightly.

  “I want a drop of your blood.” Jun Wu Xie then said.

  Elder Ying stared at Jun Wu Xie with his mouth agape. “What are you really thinking of doing?”

  Jun Wu Xie looked at Elder Ying coldly and said: “If you want to know whether your family members are still alive, then you’d better do as I say.”

  Elder Ying’s heart shook, noticing the harsh chill in Jun Wu Xie’s voice as he became flustered. But under that icy chill, he had instead sense a tiny sliver of hope!

  He immediately stretched his hand out and pricked his finger with the dagger he carried around with him without the slightest hesitation.

  Bright red blood flowed out from the wound and Jun Wu Xie took out an empty bowl and a flask of clear water from her Cosmos Sack before she poured some water into the bowl.

  “Drip a drop in there.” Jun Wu Xie raised her eyes up to look at Elder Ying and say.

  Volume 19

  Chapter 1857: “Jun Wu Xie’s Revenge (6)”

  Elder Ying glanced at Jun Wu Xie and then did according to what she said by dripping one drop of blood into the water. Thereafter, the figure of Ye Gu then appeared right beside Jun Wu Xie suddenly.

  Elder Ying was slightly startled in the instant he saw Ye Gu and he was just about to make a move when he saw Ye Gu handing a jade white porcelain bottle over to Jun Wu Xie, who then disappeared quickly right before his eyes.

  “That person is…..” Elder Ying’s eyes were incredulously wide. Although his spirit powers could not compare to Elder Yue’s, it was not that low. But he had not sensed anything in the slightest on when Ye Gu had even come.

  “One of my men.” Jun Wu Xie said expressionlessly, as she opened the white jade porcelain bottle.

  One drop of blood then slid out from the white jade porcelain bottle to drip into the water.

  The two drops of blood then slowly melded together in the water…..

  “This is…..” Elder Ying stared at the two drops of blood melded together, and he rubbed his eyes in disbelief, his heart rate rising at the same time as his face flushed a red shade.

  He lifted his eyes, to look at Jun Wu Xie extremely anxiously, his hands uncontrollably exerting strength, seemingly almost about to crush the slab of stone into pieces!

  “Good and bad news, one piece each. Which do you want to listen to first?” Jun Wu Xie raised her eyes to look at Elder Ying to ask.

  “Tell me! Tell me quickly! Whose blood is this! ?” Elder Ying said, unable to hold himself back.

  Jun Wu Xie then said: “Yue Ye.”

  The blood was what Jun Wu Xie had instructed Ye Gu to go fetch when she was leaving from Elder Yue’s courtyard.

  Elder Ying stared at Jun Wu Xie with his eyes widened and mouth hanging open, his body trembling uncontrollably.

  “Proving kinship through drops of their blood is not entirely accurate but I added some drugs into the water and only those who share the same bloodline would see the blood meld.” As a doctor of the modern society, Jun Wu Xie had always snorted in disdain towards such a primitive and ancient method of proving kinship. To really test whether there was a blood bond, it could only be done by checking on their deoxyribonucleic acid, DNA. But as there wasn’t any appropriate equipment in this world, she could only replace it with drugs a
nd medicine.

  “You are saying….. Yue Ye….. is….. is my granddaughter?” Elder Ying’s mind was suddenly filled with a loud humming.

  “Both Yue Ye and Yue Yi are.” Jun Wu Xie said.

  Elder Ying gasped loudly. No other answer pained him more than this.

  He knew very well the kind of bitter suffering Yue Yi and Yue Ye underwent in the Shadow Moon Palace. But never in his dreams would he have ever once thought that they were his very own grandson and granddaughter!

  That terrifying truth almost suffocated Elder Ying!

  “You already know the good news. Your grandson and granddaughter are still alive. But now, there is a piece of bad news I need to tell you.” Jun Wu Xie’s eyes narrowed up, not feeling all that surprised with the result.

  “Wh….. What kind of bad news?” Elder Ying clutched at his chest.

  “Elder Yue captured Yue Yi, to threaten Yue Ye…..” Jun Wu Xie told Elder Ying about Yue Yi having been captured very simply.

  It was just an instant, but Elder Ying’s mind was almost going to explode after he heard everything!

  He then shattered the stone table with a single palm strike, his eyes glaring wide!

  “He actually dared! ! ?”

  Having known that his grandson and granddaughter were still alive, it gave Elder Ying both pain and a sense of hope. But Jun Wu Xie last few words had pushed him right over into the deep ravine!

  “To save him now, you need to move in tandem with me.” The reason Jun Wu Xie had come to find Elder Ying, was not as simple as merely letting them acknowledge their relationship.

  “Just say it! Whatever you want me to do! I want that beast, Elder Yue to die! ! !” Elder Ying spat those words out through tightly clenched teeth, his gums bleeding from the force of his bite.

  At that moment, he thought back to the day when he had just come to the Shadow Moon Palace, realizing how big a ridicule he was when Elder Yue had brought Yue Yi and Yue Ye to come see him!

  Volume 19

  Chapter 1858: “Jun Wu Xie’s Revenge (7)”

  That day, Elder Ying went to seek an audience with the Shadow Moon Palace Lord about the destruction in Hill City, speaking frankly of the shock and rage he felt and he went on to state that he was willing to conduct a full investigation into the entire incident. Moreover, he went on to say that as Yue Yi had gone missing, Elder Yue being his “grandfather” would be swayed by emotions and he requested for the Shadow Moon Palace Lord to hand over the matter to him to deal with.

  The Shadow Moon Palace Lord was initially still a little hesitant, but after hearing that Yue Ye had fallen ill from heartbreak and was being placed into Jun Wu Xie’s residence for them to allow Yue Ye to recover, the Shadow Moon Palace Lord then made a firm decision.

  He decided to hand the entire matter at Hill City over to Elder Ying fully, and also bestowed upon Elder Ying a certain level of authourity.

  When Elder Yue knew about it, he was greatly shocked.

  The Hill City’s incident implicated many other things. Once it was handed over to Elder Ying, it would definitely take away a certain portion of the authourity and power he wielded. At that moment, Elder Yue became as anxious as ants on a hot pan as he had wanted to deal with the matter but was now unable to do it due to the Shadow Moon Palace Lord’s displeasure towards him.

  “Damn it. What is Elder Ying really trying to do?” Elder Yue muttered as he sat in his room with a dark expression on his face.

  “Elder Yue, the Lord has already decided to hand over the Hill City’s incident over to Elder Ying together with the control of some of the branches surrounding the Hill City as well. What do you think we should do now?” A trusted aide of Elder Yue’s could not help but begin to worry.

  “I would like to see what he can come up with.” Elder Yue said with a cold laugh. The entire incident in the Hill City had all been engineered by him all along and there hadn’t been any troublemakers stirring up trouble there at all. He did not believe that Elder Ying would really be able to resolve the matter at all!

  “Yue Ye seemed to have fallen ill from the shock and she had been sent to Chang Huan’s residence…..”

  Elder Yue’s brows creased up. “I had really underestimated that little wench. Never have I ever thought that she is in cahoots with Chang Huan. I should have noticed it when she had bit the hand that fed her back then. Chang Huan is Elder Ying’s disciple and that little wench truly knows how to use people, to be able to realize that the only person that was able to stand against me was Elder Ying, but she is afterall still too green. She might be able to hide for a time, but it won’t be forever. I shall wait and see how long she can hold out until, unless she has no intentions of saving her brother.”

  “But now that she has gone to hide in Chang Huan’s place, we have no way of seeking her out. So the matter with Yue Yi…..”

  “There’s no need to fret. Elder Ying is pouncing onto my mistake and seeking to checkmate me this time. Unfortunately for him, he does not know that the entire incident in Hill City was all just a plot I engineered. There is no way he will be able to produce any result. He took the initiative to go ask the Palace Lord to let him deal with the matter and if he comes out empty handed, I would then like to see how he’s going to answer for it. You go get all those people in Hill City to withdraw. Do not give him a single opportunity. Once he messes up with the way he handled this matter, he would naturally lose all face before the Palace Lord and I will then take over thereafter, to give the Palace Lord his answer. The gap between him and me will then widen, and he will not be able to shield Yue Ye anymore.” Elder Yue’s eyes narrowed up slightly, flashing with a cold venomous glint.

  “He is protecting that little wench, doesn’t he know that that little wench is an insatiable white eyed wolf, just a heartless ingrate? With Yue Yi in my hands, Yue Ye will not be able to escape. When that times comes, I will have Elder Ying know just how dangerous keeping a white eyed wolf by his side really is.”

  “With Elder’s divine strategy, Elder Ying would never be a match for you.” The disciple immediately hurried to butter Elder Yue up.

  Elder Yue laughed, feeling highly pleased with himself as he said: “Alright. You do not need to worry too much about this. I’d rather you go take a look at Yue Yi, and also prepare a “little gift” for Yue Ye on the way, in case she has forgotten about her elder brother.”

  Volume 19

  Chapter 1859: “Jun Wu Xie’s Revenge (8)”

  After hearing everything that Elder Yue said, the disciple immediately went on to carry out his tasks.

  A dark shadow followed soundlessly behind that disciple as he left.

  Elder Ying stood outside Jun Wu Xie’s room door and looked through the window at Yue Ye who was staring blankly into the mirror, her eyes seemingly brewing with endless sorrow.

  “I should have thought of it long ago when both of you look so much like her but I am instead almost forgetting what that lady looked like when I should be remembering.” Elder Ying’s voice was slightly raspy and looking at Yue Ye’s wan and sallow little face, his eyes could not help but turn red around the rims.

  Jun Wu Xie stood beside Elder Ying, following Elder Ying’s gaze to look inside.

  “Tell me, if I had noticed that they looked so much like their mother, would they….. not have had to suffer so much hardship all these years?” Elder Ying had never hated himself so much like he did at that very moment.

  Jun Wu Xie did not open her mouth, and she did not know what to say at that moment as well.

  Elder Ying drew in a deep breath and stepped back from the window into the yard, not saying a word for a rather long while. After being silent for a stretch, he kept his head lowered as he said in a low voice: “I will definitely make the Shadow Moon Palace pay the price. I’m waiting for your plans to commence. I must make them pay for it with their blood!”

  Jun Wu Xie looked at Elder Ying’s hate filled eyes, and she gave a light sigh.

  She couldn
’t fully understand the kind of regret and sorrow Elder Ying was feeling at that very moment, but she knew that he must be in great pain.

  A lone Ink Snake came shooting in without a sound from outside the yard, its flexible body slithering over to come just beside Jun Wu Xie’s foot. Jun Wu Xie squatted down and reached her hand out to carry the Ink Snake in the palm of his hand. She then poked at the Ink Snake’s bloated belly and it spat out a wax ball from its mouth.

  Crushing the wax ball with her fingers, a written note appeared before Jun Wu Xie’s eyes. Jun Wu Xie read the contents on the note speedily, a cold smile curling up at the corner of her mouth.

  “Yue Yi has already been found. Our plans can now begin.” Spirit power lit up in Jun Wu Xie’s hand, burning the note to a crisp.

  Elder Ying immediately raised his head, his face anxious but also tinged with a sliver of delight as he stared at Jun Wu Xie.

  “He’s been found? How….. How is he now?”

  “He’s been brought to a safe place but he’s still rather weak. I will go treat him in awhile.” Jun Wu Xie said expressionlessly.

  “Then….. then can I go see him?” Elder Ying asked, sounding a little anxious and eager.

  Jun Wu Xie shook her head.

  “Having brought him back, Elder Yue will definitely find out about it very soon. What you need to do now is to push on with our plans quickly. Otherwise, once Elder Yue gathers himself up, we will not come across chances like this easily anymore.”

  Elder Ying was a little hesitant at first, but after giving it a thought, he became highly determined.

  “Alright! I shall make the arrangements now. Rest assured, I will not allow that scoundrel Elder Yue to ever be able to turn himself around this time!” The hatred and anger in his heart quickened Elder Ying’s footsteps as he left Jun Wu Xie’s courtyard immediately after saying those words.
