Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss Volume 15

by North Night (夜北)

  The back of his knee was throbbing in pain like it had been Ye Sha crushed by Ye Sha. Large beads of sweat rolled down from the City Lord’s forehead as he struggled, attempting to move.

  If you cannot remain kneeling properly, I would not mind having both your legs broken, to have you kneel for the rest of your life.” Jun Wu Xie’s cold voice struck like a thunderous bolt onto the heart of the City Lord, frightening him so badly he did not dare to move himself another inch.

  Jun Wu Xie then looked at the City Lord in satisfaction and then said cooly said: “Alright, you can start the interrogation now.”

  The City Lord only felt like crying. He had never interrogated anyone in such a manner before throughout his entire life. He was made to remain on his knees while the person to be interrogated was sitting high up on a chair right before him, staring down at him from a higher vantage point.

  Jun Wu Xie rested her chin upon her palm nonchalantly and staring at him through narrowed eyes, Jun Wu Xie then asked: “Was it Luo Xi who asked you to find trouble with me?”

  Volume 15

  Chapter 1450: “Who’s Interrogating Who (2)”

  The City Lord’s heart thumped hard a beat and the eyes looked up at Jun Wu Xie was filled with terror. His gaze became shifty and he gulped silently before he said: “What….. Luo Xi?….. I have no idea what you are talking a….. ARGH! ! !”

  Before the City Lord could finish, a silver glint flashed behind him and his left ankle was suddenly broken by a merciless stomp of Ye Sha’s foot, the heart rending pain immediately causing him to fall to the floor to roll around in pain.

  Jun Wu Xie’s cold gaze eyed at the City Lord who was bathed in cold sweat and she said in a light and almost fleeting voice: “This is the first time. Lie one more time and you can forget about having legs.”

  The City Lord lay in a heap upon the ground as he stared in terror at the cold faced youth before him. He looked so very young but the level of viciousness the youth was capable of in order to get his way made even the City Lord himself feel his scalp crawl. He was absolutely merciless. Seeing that side of Jun Wu Xie, the City Lord was completely subdued and he did not dare utter another single lie.

  “It’s Luo Xi! Luo Xi was the one who asked me to do it! He told me to do it! It wasn’t my idea at all! I beg for you to spare me…..” The City Lord begged as he wept. If the Heavens had let him known earlier that Jun Wu Xie possessed such a vicious streak within, even if Luo Xi had talked till he went hoarse, the City Lord would not have dared to cross Jun Wu Xie in the slightest!

  He was presently in living Hell!

  “You had to listen to him?” Jun Wu Xie asked, an eyebrow arching up.

  The City Lord nodded.

  “Why?”

  The City Lord suddenly went dumb and did not dare to speak.

  “Ye Sha.” Jun Wu Xie’s icy voice flashed like another bolt to strike him upon the heart and the City Lord immediately could not wait to say: “I’ll talk! I’ll talk! I’ll tell you everything! Because Luo Xi is closer to the revered one and all orders from the revered one are given to me through Luo Xi. If I do not listen to him, the revered one will then place the blame on me…..”

  The City Lord on the floor was crying bitterly with mucus running down his face. Jun Wu Xie viciousness had made him realise that if he did not give Jun Wu Xie satisfactory replies, he might not be able to see the sun rise tomorrow.

  “Who is this revered one?” Jun Wu Xie’s tone suddenly turned chillier. As expected, behind the actions of both the City Lord and Luo Xi, a person was hidden behind who controlled them both. If she was not guessing wrongly, the incidents with the Poison Men must have something to do with this “revered one”.

  “I….. I do not know….. I really do not know….. I only know that the revered one possesses remarkable abilities and hold unparalleled powers. It was Luo Xi who brought the revered one to come seek me, commanding me to carry out all of the revered one’s instructions. That person was just too powerful and I did not dare to disobey!” The City Lord answered honestly.

  Jun Wu Xie then asked: “Releasing the refugees into the Clear Breeze City was also the revered one’s idea?”

  “Yes….. it is…..” The City Lord nodded.

  “Why did he ask the two of you to do this?” Jun Wu Xie continued to probe.

  The City Lord swallowed hard and replied: “The revered one needed the refugees to do something for him. He made me bring in three hundred of the elderly and frail ones everyday into the city and after seven days, they were to be brought to Luo Xi’s Fortune Spring Hall where Luo Xi would then make them ingest a kind of medicine. The medicine would addle the minds of the refugees to make them highly dazed before losing their awareness and after that….. After that, the revered one would then sent those people to various places…..”

  [Sent to various places!] Jun Wu Xie’s eyes flashed with a chill. Piecing together her deductions and what the City Lord was telling her, she had a rather good idea what the revered one needed those frail elderly and weak women for!

  In her past life, Jun Wu Xie had once heard of an unconventional type of biological warfare. A certain power had used humans as carriers, where they injected a highly contagious kind of bacteria into some humans, before sending them into places that the enemy armies were.

  Volume 15

  Chapter 1451: “Who’s Interrogating Who (3)”

  Those people who had been chosen to be carriers were mostly people who were sickly and frail. As their bodies’ constitution were weak, their resilience towards drugs and bacteria were not strong. Not long after they were injected with the bacteria, they would very soon die. Upon their deaths, that would be when the bacteria would spread, silently and unnoticed, as they achieved their evil objectives.

  For the revered one to have the Clear Breeze City take in the frail elderly, weaker women and children continuously, his motives must be the same as that bacteria warfare, but just that the bacteria from Jun Wu Xie’s past life had been replaced with a kind of drug that spread very easily, to achieve the same kind of effect. If what she thought was correct, those people who were made to ingest the medicine, must have been secretly sent to various places throughout the Lower Realm.

  Under the chaos of war and conflict, the number of refugees were endless. No matter which place it was, seeing some highly muddled and sickly refugee appearing would not attract anyone’s attention. And as those people had low immunity and resistance against the drug, their deaths would also be highly sped up!

  That was also the reason the revered one requested only for the frail elderly and weaker women and children to be allowed into the city. Moreover, the harsh conditions the refugees were forced to live under would further deplete the life force of those refugees and when the seven days were up, just when their bodies were at their weakest, it would be the best time to make use of them to fulfil his nefarious objectives!

  Using humans as carriers to spread the poison. Such a insidious method would send chills down people’s spine. When she imagined having three hundred refugees whose bodies contained that poison being sent to various places in the Lower Realm everyday, Jun Wu Xie felt a fiery blaze start to burn within her chest. The Poison Army was being reinforced everyday and there was no end to them. And the source of it all, were the people here.

  Even with Jun Wu Xie’s personality, she could not help but feel rage realizing it.

  “Where is that revered one now?” Jun Wu Xie asked in a voice that was terrifyingly chilly.

  “I….. I do not know….. The revered one and I have only met once and all the instructions the revered one had for me after that came in through Luo Xi to me. Things about the revered one….. Luo Xi knows it much better than I do! I…… I really do not know anything about that…..” The City Lord started wailing.

  Jun Wu Xie fell silent. The City Lord’s words did not sound like he was lying. Judging from all that had happened, Luo Xi was indeed able to give instructions to the City Lord. Ot
herwise, upon finding out that the refugees had been moved out from the camp, the first one among the two of them to appear would not have been the City Lord, but would have been Luo Xi coming aggressively to stir up trouble.

  “Today, you will act as if nothing had happened. I had never come to the City Lord’s Manor and have never heard a word you said.” Jun Wu Xie said suddenly.

  The City Lord stared blankly at Jun Wu Xie, his tears and snot smeared all over his face in a mess.

  “What….. what does….. that mean…..?”

  “Tell Luo Xi that you did not succeed today and ask him to come up with another way.” Jun Wu Xie said as she got up. The Lord of the Clear Breeze City was merely a pawn in the game of chess and in order for her to reel in the big fish, she needed to work on Luo Xi.

  The City Lord continued to stare, looking completely flabbergasted at Jun Wu Xie.

  “You need me to engrave all these words onto your body to remind you?” Jun Wu Xie said menacingly through narrowed eyes, her eyes glinting with murder.

  The City Lord immediately cowered upon the floor, shaking like an injured chick to hurriedly say: “Your servant remembers it! I understand what Young Master is telling me! I will definitely carry out Young Master’s instructions to the letter!”

  Jun Wu Xie was satisfied and she turned around to depart, disappearing from the City Lord’s Manor together with Ye Sha, looking like that had never been here before.

  It was until Jun Wu Xie and Ye Sha had left that the City Lord fell limply onto the ground, all strength completely seeping out from him. Without knowing why, he had a sudden strange feeling in his heart. He seemed to feel that the cold and calm little youth, was to be feared more than that tyrannically powerful revered one!

  Volume 15

  Chapter 1452: “I’ll Play With You (1)”

  As expected, early the next morning, after Luo Xi ascertained that things were the same at the city’s north, he came storming into the City Lord’s Manor, his face darkened.

  The City Lord had suffered a great shock yesterday and had fallen so sick he was confined in bed. His ankle that Ye Sha had stomped on was thickly wrapped up with bandages and he was being cared for by his concubines so well that he was almost crooning as he lay in bed.

  When Luo Xi came in, his face was terrifyingly dark.

  “Why is the task I asked you to deal with still not settled! ?” Luo Xi asked as he looked at the pudgy and obese City Lord, his eyes filled with disdain.

  The City Lord swung his gaze over to look at Luo Xi, his heart sneering but his face looking shocked and startled.

  “All of you are dismissed.” The City Lord got everyone within the room to go out before he started sobbing and wailing in front of Luo Xi. “It’s not that I didn’t want to go deal with it, but I really am not able to do anything about it! I had wanted to find an excuse to confiscate those lofts to make them mine but that kid was just too smart. He paid three times the asking price to buy over both the deeds to the houses and to the lands they sat on. I sent Liu Er to go stir up trouble yesterday but not only had he not succeeded, he and his gang had all died there. I led a troop of soldiers there after that and was properly snubbed and humiliated. I had wanted to shed all pretense of cordiality and would have torn right into him but I suddenly remembered that the revered one had instructed me to maintain a kindy and benevolent image before I held myself back.”

  Luo Xi’s brows creased up even further. What the City Lord was saying wasn’t wrong. His image as the benevolent Lord of the City was established only through much effort and if they wanted to continue to receive more refugees, they must not spoil that image too badly.

  Luo Xi was deep in thought and his gaze then fell upon the City Lord’s foot that was heavily wrapped up in bandages.

  “What happened to your foot?”

  The City Lord’s heart jumped and he quickly tried to hide it as he said: “It’s all Liu Er’s fault! When I heard that he and all his men were killed up there, I was so shocked I fell heavily, and broke my ankle.”

  Luo Xi’s glance lingered on the City Lord for a moment longer and seemed to have believed the City Lord’s words.

  “The refugees who were supposed to report to the City Lord’s Manor still had not appeared. If that place up in the city’s north is not properly dealt with, those pieces of trash would just remain there for good, which would greatly delay what the revered one wants us to accomplish.” Luo Xi then went on to say.

  “That’s for sure.” The City Lord heaved a sigh of relief.

  Luo Xi then threw the City Lord a look of contempt. “You’re really a useless good for nothing. You can’t even deal with such a small matter properly and need to trouble me to do it.”

  “I know, you’re naturally much stronger than I am.” The City Lord said quickly, in a hurry to butter up Luo Xi, but in his heart, he was greeting all past eighteen generations of Luo Xi ancestors an entire round. “I wonder what plans Luo Xi has up his sleeve?”

  “Have you forgotten what kind of a place the Fortune Spring Hall is? No matter how great that place in the city’s north is, if a few lives were lost up there, those old fogeys would not dare to continue to remain there!” Luo Xi said, his eyes lighting up with a venomous glint.

  He said a few more words to the City Lord and then flung his sleeves as he turned to leave.

  Luo Xi’s foot had just stepped out when the City Lord immediately summoned his trusted aide. After quickly writing a short and concise letter, he got his trusted aide to deliver the letter to the city’s north.

  “My Lord, you want me to deliver this letter to the city’s north?” The trusted aide asked as he looked at the City Lord incredulously.

  The City Lord then said: “Did you see anyone come to this manor yesterday?”

  The trusted aide shook his head.

  The City Lord then sighed morosely and said: “Then don’t ask so much. Go deliver it quickly and make sure no one sees you.”

  “Yes!”

  The City Lord looked upon the trusted aide’s departing back and his heart was shrouded in a layer of cold chill. When Jun Wu Xie had come to the City Lord’s Manor yesterday, everyone within the manor had been knocked out and thrown together in the backyard.

  Volume 15

  Chapter 1453: “I’ll Play With You (2)”

  But what was really strange was that after they awoke, they all acted like nothing had happened at all, none have them having any memory of having been knocked unconscious at all. For a period of time after they woke up, they were all acting like they had lost their memory, each of them just going back to the places they were supposed to be at, and then coming fully awake only a moment later, reverting back to normal.

  That strange scene, was enough to cause the hair on the City Lord to stand, making him realize that Jun Wu Xie was truly unfathomable.

  Jun Wu Xie had received the City Lord’s secret letter very quickly. The City Lord had revealed Luo Xi’s intentions in the letter and based on what she understood about Luo Xi, Jun Wu Xie made her own guesses on the methods Luo Xi would use soon after.

  “It will just be another round of child’s play.” Jun Wu Xie said as she held the letter over the candle flame, watching it being engulfed bit by bit.

  Jun Wu Yao sat directly across from her, a faint smile across his lips. “Little Xie seems to be very disappointed?”

  “Do I?” Jun Wu Xie asked, her eyebrow lifting slightly.

  Jun Wu Yao then replied with a laugh: “You’re right. The fact that Luo Xi would think of using such childish methods to want to create trouble for you, it is really rather funny.”

  When it came to skills with poisons and antidotes, Jun Wu Yao had never met anyone who was more outstanding than Jun Wu Xie was. Even though she was born in the Lower Realm, her expertise with medicine and skill with poison had even astounded him at times.

  Sometimes, Jun Wu Yao was also very curious where Jun Wu Xie had picked up her abilities from. It seemed like she was al
ready equipped with all of that from the moment he had first met her.

  Anyone who dared to try to show Jun Wu Xie up with medicine or poison would all just end up humiliating themselves.

  “Luo Xi and the revered one are in communication with each other. I will only need to force Luo Xi into a corner with no other way out for him and the person behind him will naturally make a move.” Jun Wu Xie said indifferently.

  The bait had been hooked and the line cast, all she had to do was to wait for the fish to bite.

  In the deep of night and all was still, several suspicious shadowy figures infiltrated into the rows of lofts in the city’s north. The moon was high up in the sky and the place was quiet so late at night. The several men silently gathered together and one of them distributed several palm sized paper packets into the hand of every single one of them as he said in a low whisper: “All of you listen closely. This drug kills upon contact with blood. All of you are to toss them into the water of all the nearby wells. Do not miss out any one of them.”

  The other black robed men all nodded, and they dispersed very quickly.

  They thought they had been silent and soundless and nobody had detected them. But unbeknownst to them, within a loft unit that stood independently, a tiny figure was hidden within the darkness, her eyes seeing every move they made.

  “How many wells are there nearby?” Jun Wu Xie asked from within the darkness.

  Ye Sha’s voice sounded out softly. “Seventeen. It’s not used just by us. The residents of the Clear Breeze City living nearby use them as well.”

  Jun Wu Xie gave out a cold laugh.

  “Luo Xi us indeed more vicious than the City Lord. In order to destroy this place, he doesn’t care if he is dragging a whole bunch of other innocent people into the water.”

  Seventeen wells. And not just the refugees drink the water from them. The citizens living nearby drew their water from them as well and with just a rough estimation, these seventeen wells would at least kill a few thousand people.
