Chapter 261: Chapter 261
"Your boss? You mean Guxing, right? What realm is she at now?" Princess Ke Xin interjected. Among those here, only she and Yue Qingling knew about Xiaoyao's boss, and Yue Qingling didn't understand very well either.
Princess Ke Xin also really wanted to know if she could catch up to Guxing.
"Her? She's already at mid-Emperor Level now, and will soon reach late stage. She's a bit stronger than your master," Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"What?. Stronger than me." Yue Qingling's eyes widened as she shouted very unhappily.
Princess Ke Xin said weakly from the side, "As expected. I still can't catch up to her. She's a genius, and she also has your help..." Follow current novᴇls on NoveI-Fire.ɴet
Princess Ke Xin had actually expected this result long ago. Although her own progress was rapid, catching up to Guxing was very difficult. What she hadn't expected was that not only had she not caught up, but the distance had become even greater than before.
"Impossible. She was only at early King Level back then, and had just entered it. How could she advance so many levels in just two or three years." Yue Qingling didn't want to believe it, was unwilling to believe it, because this matter was too incredible.
"With him around, any possibility can happen. I've seen enough miracles..." When Xiaoyao didn't answer, Princess Ke Xin had already spoken, making Yue Qingling fall silent.
That's right, miracles. Things related to this kid all seemed like miracles. I heard even the Demon Cult had suffered losses at his hands, and those two female war gods - they were also at Emperor Level now, though originally they had been a bit weaker than Guxing.
Not many people knew about Guxing's situation. They only knew she was a genius, only knew she had won first place in the Dragon Gate Tournament, but what happened afterward, no one knew, because Guxing had always stayed at First Academy Under Heaven without coming out, at most just fighting a few matches with Le Youran.
In terms of fame, Nangong Suxin and the Young Miss had much higher reputations. The two of them were simply at their peak. After Xiaoyao left the Great Tang Empire, their legend continued, apparently helping the Great Tang Empire eliminate several enemy countries with miraculous battle results that amazed the entire continent.
If Xiaoyao revealed his relationship with them, he could also intimidate the Azure Dragon Society people. But Xiaoyao didn't seem like he would do this. Even if he wanted to intimidate, he wouldn't use them - there were even stronger ones. He could directly use the Eldest Princess.
Once the Eldest Princess appeared, the Azure Dragon Society people would immediately drop this grudge. Of course, it wouldn't be because they had become enlightened, but because they knew that all of them together couldn't afford to provoke one Eldest Princess. Peerless experts and they weren't on the same level.
Speaking of the Eldest Princess, recently she seemed to have become very normal. Previously, she was crazy three or four days out of seven, but now it was at most one day out of seven. This also made the Eldest Princess's intimidating power much stronger.
"Alright, nothing much happening. I want to eat lunch. I just consumed quite a bit of true qi..." Xiaoyao didn't want to continue being watched here and wanted to slip away first. This reason was also real - he was indeed a bit hungry now. He had only eaten a few steamed dumplings earlier. Well, just a few.
"I'm also hungry. I just got injured and also need to eat," Princess Ke Xin said with a smile. Although her words were obviously polite conversation, no one paid much attention because this was very normal.
Yue Qingling frowned, looked at Princess Ke Xin, then helplessly shook her head and also said, "I've also been busy for so long. I'll go eat something with you all."
"Everyone, all our people are here. No one to cook. How about this - young friend Xiaoyao, you help with treatment, and we'll have people go cook," Tian Yi said at this time, pointing out a very crucial problem - the kitchen currently had no one.
Everyone was helping. Although kitchen staff didn't understand medical arts very well, as Medicine Immortal Ridge people, they at least knew a little. They could still help with simple tasks.
"..." Xiaoyao was silent for a while. "I'll help you cook then..."
Tian Yi hadn't expected Xiaoyao would answer . Originally he wanted Xiaoyao to help save people, but Xiaoyao chose to cook instead. Anyone could cook, but not everyone had his medical skills.
"Cough cough, young friend Xiaoyao, cooking can be done by others. These people are just standing around anyway. You should come help save people. We're all tired." Tian Yi said somewhat helplessly.
"Xiaoyao, I can cook. I'll make food for you," Princess Ke Xin said at this time, smiling very gently.
"How embarrassing - you're a princess." Xiaoyao said somewhat embarrassedly.
"What princess? We're all friends. You've even helped me and I've never repaid you. It's settled then." Princess Ke Xin didn't care whether Xiaoyao agreed or not and decided just like that, walking directly inside.
However, Princess Ke Xin soon stopped, turned around, and asked somewhat weakly, "Um, where's the kitchen?"
"..." Xiaoyao shook his head, very speechless.
"You pick someone to take her there and help cook. With young friend Xiaoyao's help, we'll be more relaxed," Tian Yi immediately had the kitchen staff pick someone to help. Originally this eating problem also needed to be solved, or how could these people continue working?
"You people standing around doing nothing, those who can help should go help. Don't just stand there waiting to eat." Xiaoyao said to those accompanying people at this time. The injured were one group, but there were also uninjured people - they were a resource that couldn't be wasted.
Moreover, Xiaoyao had another purpose -
"Princess Ke Xin, you only need to cook for us few. Don't worry about others - let them do it themselves."
Xiaoyao was still thinking of Princess Ke Xin. With Princess Ke Xin's personality, if others didn't do the work, she might do it all herself, not knowing how tired she would become.
"Alright, what do you need me to help with? I'll state upfront, I won't save any of those Azure Dragon Society people," Xiaoyao said as he rolled up his sleeves to start, stating a condition...
Tian Yi was somewhat embarrassed and said, "Young friend Xiaoyao, physicians have the heart of parents."
"That depends on who we're talking about. If I treat them as sons and they want to kill me, what do I need such sons for." Xiaoyao said very seriously.
After hearing Xiaoyao's words, some people couldn't help but laugh. This wasn't taking advantage of people, and this advantage was taken in a way that left no room for rebuttal. Really interesting.
"Fine, we'll handle those people ourselves." Tian Yi had no choice. Anyway, he could just arrange things to avoid conflicts. Most importantly, Xiaoyao could help, and situations where only he could handle things wouldn't arise.
Tian Yi perhaps hadn't thought at this time that this situation that "wouldn't arise" would eventually occur quite coincidentally. By then, everyone had eaten and many had rested. Xiaoyao was treating people one by one.
At this time, Xiaoyao wasn't as careful as when treating Princess Ke Xin earlier. Basically, after stabilizing injuries, he let them handle things themselves, not wasting time on follow-up matters. After all, these were things martial artists were good at.
Because of this, Xiaoyao's treatment speed became very fast. People discovered that after Xiaoyao handled several people's injuries, others including Tian Yi had only handled one person. This speed was incomparable to others, and the quality was also very good - not inferior to Tian Yi and others.
This made people understand two things. Xiaoyao's medical skills were indeed superior to Tian Yi's. Although this seemed incredible, Tian Yi basically represented the highest medical arts on the continent, yet Xiaoyao, such a young man, actually had medical skills higher than the highest representative. What kind of concept was that?
Secondly, Xiaoyao obviously gave Princess Ke Xin special care. Others couldn't possibly receive such treatment. Of course, this referred to people here.
As Xiaoyao treated people one by one, there were fewer and fewer people on the ground. Even with wounded continuously being brought in, it was the same. This also showed from another perspective that the treatment speed of Xiaoyao and others had exceeded the delivery speed.
This way, everyone could naturally get brief rest. Don't forget, these people had all been busy all morning.
Everything was proceeding in an orderly fashion. If this continued, Medicine Immortal Ridge could probably return to normal soon. Although there were many guests, at least there wouldn't be such busy situations.
But heaven seemed to love creating little troubles for everyone...
"Young friend Xiaoyao, this person is dying. Do you have any way to help?" Tian Yi brought over a wounded person. The wounded person was carried on a stretcher with no color in their face, looking severely injured.
At this time, Tian Yi's expression seemed to have a trace of strangeness, as if it wasn't the kind of embarrassment from being unable to save someone and having to ask Xiaoyao, but another kind of worried strangeness.
Xiaoyao looked at the wounded person and discovered it was a beautiful girl. Although her face was pale and her body covered in blood, it couldn't hide her beauty.
Xiaoyao didn't linger because of this beauty. He quickly looked toward Tian Yi and said, "As long as they're not dead, there are ways."
"So you can save her." Tian Yi's eyes brightened slightly.
"No, I can't." Xiaoyao shook his head in refusal.
This surprised most people. They wondered what Xiaoyao meant - didn't he say he had ways? How could he then say he couldn't?
"Why? Didn't you say you had ways?" Tian Yi asked.
"I do have ways to save her, but the problem is I don't want to save her." Xiaoyao said.
"I believe you already know the answer to this question yourself. Why ask me?" Xiaoyao looked at Tian Yi. His words had some depth that left unknowing people somewhat confused.
Soon, Tian Yi would explain this confusing part to everyone -
