Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss Volume 9

by North Night (夜北)

  Although Qu Ling Yue was still rather young, but she had managed to attain the topmost rank in the academy’s Spirit Battle Tournament. Throughout the top three elite academies, people who were able to match up and fight to a draw with Qu Ling Yue numbered few and far between and the number of people who would be able to defeat her was even more scarce.

  The news of the Zephyr Academy’s decline had already spread far and wide and they found it hard to believe that the Zephyr Academy in that state were still able to send someone who was able to defeat Qu Ling Yue.

  “What I am saying might sound unbelievable but if you gentlemen just ask around in the Yan Country’s Imperial Capital, you will find that I am telling you the truth! The Zephyr Academy has only sent six contestants to the competition this year and the six of them have attained powers of an astounding level! Five among them have reached the blue spirit power level and they are all only about sixteen to seventeen years of age! The one that injured Qu Ling Yue is Jun Xie, the youngest among all of them, and although he is only barely fifteen years old, her spirit power level has already reached the green spirit level!”

  The moment Jiang Ying Long’s words reached them, the youth’s and Xiong Ba’s faces immediately showed expressions of utter disbelief. They had spent many years toiling through their cultivation and they knew very well how difficult it was to gain any progress in their spirit power growth. Not to mention how old those youths from the Zephyr Academy were, even if their ages were multiplied a few times, it would still be difficult to achieve that kind of results.

  “Is that the truth?” The youth asked in shock.

  Jiang Yong Long nodded. “Naturally it is. I wouldn’t dare deceive all of you. If Hall Chief Xiong doesn’t believe me, you can go out anywhere into the Imperial Capital and just grab anyone to ask, and you will know that I speak the truth.”

  Xiong Ba and the youth exchanged looks, their eyes filled with astonishment.

  At that age, with that kind of spirit power level. Those facts exceeded and went beyond what they have known all their life about spirit power cultivation and throughout the entire lands since time immemorial, how many people had been able to reach such astounding levels at such a young age?

  “So what even if he is a green spirit? Who cares who he think he is! ? To dare to harm our Young Miss, the Thousand Beast City will not let him off easily!” Xiong Ba opened his mouth to say.

  Jiang Ying Long secretly sighed in relief and said: “That’s right. That Jun Xie would surely not come to a good end. But what’s most important now is to treat Qu Ling Yue’s injuries first.”

  Xiong Ba nodded and his gaze turned once again onto the one who had previously been chatting merrily with the other physicians, Imperial Physician Li.

  “The Yan Country’s physicians are not capable and we do not expect much from them. The Thousand Beast City will use their own doctors to handle it.” With that being said, Xiong Ba turned to the white haired old man beside him and said respectfully: “I beg for Senior Feng to save our Young Miss.”

  The old man nodded. “That is this feeble old man’s aim in coming here today. I am for Hall Chief Xiong to rest assured, for I will do everything I can.”

  Imperial Physician Li stared at the old man, his heart filled with a nagging suspicion. When Xiong Ba addressed that old man as Senior Feng, the words of rebuttal that had been on tip of Imperial Physician Li’s tongue were suddenly all swallowed back down his throat.

  At the current time throughout the world, the most famed medical practitioners, besides the Qing Yun Clan which had evaporated onto thin air, there were still a handful of prodigious doctors scattered about. These people lived their lives as hermits and resided for long years deep within the mountains, seldom appearing before people. But their exceptional skills in Medicine had never been forgotten by people and although they might pale in comparison to the Qing Yun Clan in the cultivation of elixirs, their knowledge and skills in treatment left doctors and physicians in the profession far behind them in the dust.

  And among those, there were three acclaimed Divine Doctors, with one of them going by the name of Feng Yue Yang. It was said he had started perusing medical texts from a very young age and already acquired great fame when he had only been a youth, who finally retreated into the mountains when he became aged. But it was just a few years ago that the man who was acclaimed to be one among the three Divine Doctors suddenly joined the Thousand Beast City and became the Thousand Beast City’s resident physician.

  Imperial Physician Li was always proud and arrogant, but when placed before Feng Yue Yang, he did not dare show a single sign of disrespect.

  “I just realized it is the revered Senior Feng before me. Your junior has heard of your prodigious medical skills for a long time and I am highly humbled I am fortunate enough to meet you today, which is the greatest honour for your junior.” Imperial Physician Li was suddenly polite and highly respectful as he bowed low in greeting towards Feng Yue Yang.

  Feng Yue Yang glanced at him and nodded as he walked to come beside Qu Ling Yue’s bedside to take her pulse. It suddenly became extremely quiet in the room. No one dared disturb Feng Yue Yang as he carried out his diagnosis. Imperial Physician Li had besides being deeply moved, discreetly turned to glanced at Jun Wu Xie standing behind Lei Chen, a cold smile on his face.

  That expression seemed to be saying that the little brat could never hope to be able to compare to Feng Yue Yang, a Divine Doctor.

  After a while, Feng Yue Yang had a frown on his face as he turned around to face everyone. Xiong Ba was anxious and nervous as he asked: “Senior Feng. Where has our Young Miss been injured? Is the injury serious? Will Senior Feng be able…..”

  Feng Yue Yang raised his hand slightly to stop Xiong Ba’s barrage of unending questions.

  “Hall Chief Xiong, do not rush into it. I have already ascertained our Young Miss’ injuries and now I need to ask the other physicians about the circumstances and I ask that Hall Chief Xiong to calm yourself down.”

  Xiong Ba could do nothing but retreat to the side quietly, his eyes still filled with anxiety and nervousness.

  “In the past few days, it was all of you that provided treatment for our Young Miss?” Feng Yue Yang asked, looking towards Imperial Physician Li and the other physicians.

  The group of physicians quickly nodded. The entire bunch of them had long heard of Feng Yue Yang’s name and even as somewhat famous physicians themselves, when faced with Feng Yue Yang standing before them, they could only defer obediently to him.

  “Can you show me all the different elixirs and herbs you have given our Young Miss these past few days to this feeble old man to have a look at them?” Feng Yue Yang asked softly.

  “Definitely! I ask that Senior Feng wait just a moment here. We will go fetch it immediately.” Several physicians quickly ran out and just moments later, they returned with all the kinds of elixirs and herbs they had given Qu Ling Yue in the past few days in their hands.

  Chapter 867 : “Guests from Beast City (5)”

  Feng Yue Yang untied the bagged up herbs and carefully inspected the herbs used and then went on to check the elixirs meticulously before putting them down.

  “How is it? Did they give the wrong medicine? If not, why is our Young Miss still unconscious?” Xiong Ba asked anxiously. After having seen Imperial Physician Li chatting merrily with the other doctors when he first stepped into the room, he no longer believed this bunch of charlatans.

  Imperial Physician Li could not hold himself back from that completely and rebutted: “Hall Chief Xiong, although the group of us here are not as skilled or as knowledgeable as Senior Feng, we are still careful and responsible medical practitioners. With Miss Qu’s extraordinary identity, how would we dare to risk giving her any medicine that might be even slightly inappropriate?”

  Xiong Ba snorted in derision.

&nb
sp; Feng Yue Yang shook his head and said: “Hall Chief Xiong has been too overly concerned. There is nothing inappropriate in the medicine that the physicians here have given to our Young Miss. It can be seen from the mild nourishing effects of the medicine that they have been very careful with our Young Miss’ condition. But as our Young Miss’ injuries have been too severe and the affliction too complicated, giving our Young Miss medicine with strong effects without being fully confident of the results would only further burden our Young Miss’ body.”

  Feng Yue Yang words had somewhat appeased Imperial Physician Li and the colour on his face improved a little.

  Feng Yue Yang’s words however took a sudden turn as he continued: “Although medicine with mild effects would not cause harm to our Young Miss’ body, but when the treatment employed is played too safe, it will really be unrealistic to expect our Young Miss’ current condition to be reversed. To tell the truth, our Young Miss’ condition is really in a rather thorny situation. Even for me, to fully cure her, I will still require a lot of time to make preparations. And looking at our Young Miss’ current situation, her body might not be able to withstand for that long a period.” Feng Yue Yang sighed, his voice tinged with a trace of worry.

  Xiong Ba’s expression was growing even more anxious and even the youth beside him was looking highly troubled.

  But it was at that very moment that a cold voice suddenly rang out within the room.

  “With this tiny bit of an injury, does it really call for so much trouble?”

  The instant that that voice sounded, everyone turned to look in the direction of the source of the voice.

  Jun Wu Xie, who had not spoken a single word throughout it all suddenly became the focus of everyone’s eyes.

  “You little brat! Stirring up trouble here again! ? Didn’t you agree that if you are unable to cure the condition, you will not show yourself in here thereafter! ?” Imperial Physician Li had upon hearing Jun Wu Xie’s words, exploded with the rage that instantly filled his heart, and jumped out to point his finger at Jun Wu Xie to berate her.

  Jun Wu Xie lifted an eyebrow and looked at the hopping mad Imperial Physician Li and said: “I am merely stating facts. Is there a need to get so huffed up?”

  “You!”

  “Little lass, where do you come from? Do you know what you are talking about! ?” Xiong Ba said, looking at Jun Wu Xie with a deep frown on his face. He had been extremely worried about Qu Ling Yue’s injuries and had not really noticed the person beside Lei Chen. Now that he had taken a good look, he saw that the lass was mighty good looking but the way she spoke really made people unable to like her.

  “Facts.” Jun Wu Xie replied, slightly lifting up her chin, arms crossed before her chest, looking completely collected and unruffled as she stared at the bunch of highly flustered people before her.

  Jiang Ying Long immediately saw that the situation was not right and he immediately stepped forward and said to Lei Chen: “Your Highness, I believe that the agreement we had before is not forgotten.”

  Lei Chen lifted an eyebrow, feigning ignorance.

  The youth from the Thousand Beast City sensed that there was something going on under that commotion and he suddenly asked: “Pray tell me what sort of an agreement did Teacher Jiang have with His Highness, the Crown Prince?”

  Jiang Ying Long’s heart shook, and knew that he was caught.

  If the people from the Thousand Beast City knew that he had allowed a little girl to give their Young Miss medical treatment, Xiong Ba would undoubtedly blow up in rage!

  Volume 9

  Chapter 868 : “Quack Doctor (1)”

  Jiang Ying Long wanted to hide that fact but faced against Xiong Ba’s pair of eyes so filled with fiery rage, he did not dare to brush the matter off and had no choice but to put up a brave front and say: “His Highness, the Crown Prince had said before that the young lady beside him was well versed in Medicine and she knew of a way to save Ling Yue’s life. But I had thought that Miss Jun was too young and did not look like she would know much about Medicine. However, we could not go against the His Highness’ adamant insistence and to avoid delaying the other physicians from providing treatment for Ling Yue, I relented and allowed Miss Jun to give it just one try, and have made an agreement with His Highness if Miss Jun was unable to cure Ling Yue of her condition, they are not to come here to disrupt us in future…..”

  Jiang Ying Long’s voice was becoming softer as he spoke, trying his hardest to push the entire blame onto Lei Chen, terrified that Xiong Ba would in a fit of rage, kill him with a single smash of his palm.

  As expected, after Xiong Ba heard what Jiang Ying Long said, his eyes flared wide open, staring at Jun Wu Xie with undisguised rage.

  “Jiang Ying Long! How gutsy of you! You actually allowed a naive and ignorant brat to give treatment to our Young Miss! ? Does the War Banner Academy even have any respect for the Thousand Beast City! ? No wonder our Young Miss’ condition has not improved at all, because all of you have been providing treatment in such a frivolous manner! What a bunch of quacks you all are! With such a young brat and you bunch of misfits, how are all of you able to provide adequate care for our Young Miss’ injuries! ?” Xiong Ba was raging in fury, no matter how you looked at Jun Wu Xie’s age, she would at most only be fifteen. At that age, even if she understood Medicine, it would only have barely skimmed the surface.

  [Jiang Ying Long had actually dared to let a brat like that give Qu Ling Yue medical treatment, that was such a shocking and terrifying thing that he was hearing!]

  Xiong Ba’s voice was already deep and loud originally, and with rage and fury added to it, his booming shouts became ear shattering.

  “Crown Prince Lei Chen! Even if you are the Yan Country’s Crown Prince, you still have no right to treat our Thousand Beast City’s Young Miss in such a careless manner! If you had gotten another acclaimed physician here, it would have been fine. But look at the Miss Jun beside you! Just how old is she? How could she possibly be capable of saving someone’s life? Crown Prince Lei Chen, aren’t you taking our Young Miss’ life and death a little too lightly! ? How could you let a brat such as her do it! ? Does Crown Prince Lei Chen want to cause our Young Miss to lose her life! ?” Xiong Ba’s face was livid and flushed a bright red. His eyes were completely bloodshot and if not for the youth blocking him off, Xiong Ba might very well have charged over and strangled that ignorant and naive little lass.

  Xiong Ba’s rage had been successfully diverted by Jiang Ying Long to fall fully onto Jun Wu Xie and Lei Chen. Imperial Physician Li watched from the side, laughing to himself secretly in his heart. The Raging Blaze Hall Chief’s personality was exactly like the name of his Branch Hall, a fiery personality through and through. Now that Xiong Ba knew that Lei Chen had handled the matter so frivolously, it was thought that Xiong Ba would not be saving Lei Chen any face in this matter.

  As if Imperial Physician Li was thinking the atmosphere then was still not heated enough, he pretended to be nice by saying: “Hall Chief Xiong, please calm down. His Highness, the Crown Prince had actually meant well. He knew that Miss Qu was gravely injured and got overly anxious that resulted in him coming up with such a lousy idea. Although all of us had also felt that Miss Jun’s age….. really did not look like she would be skilled in Medicine, but it was still afterall His Highness, the Crown Prince’s kind intention. Although the method he did it with did not come out entirely correct, but fortunately Miss Qu’s injuries did not worsened because of it. On top of that, all of us had put in everything we had to stabilise Miss Qu’s condition and I would request that Hall Chief Xiong to not pursue the matter further.”

  Imperial Physician Li had phrased his words nicely, but overtly and covertly, he was hinting that Jun Wu Xie’s treatment for Qu Ling Yue had not only not been the least bit beneficial to Qu Ling Yue, but it had made her injuries worse instead, and it was due to the tireless work of the whole bunch of physicians that they had been able to salvage the situation.

  Chapter 869 : “Quack Doctor (2)”

  With that speech, Xiong Ba’s rage had not only not been extinguished but instead flared to greater heights. He stared into Jun Wu Xie’s eyes and looked like he was about to swallow her whole at that moment.

  Even the youth who had been calm and steady all this time was already frowning, while Feng Yue Yang was shaking his head with a sigh.

  Lei Chen and Jun Wu Xie had suddenly turned into everyone’s target to attack.

  Lei Chen was feeling rather nervous as his hands clenched up into fists. Although the current situation was still within what he had predicted would happen here, he could not help himself but still feel a little worried as he subconsciously turned to look at Jun Wu Xie. When Jun Wu Xie had suddenly spoken up earlier, it had felt like she was leading Xiong Ba and the others to press further on this matter.

  He really could not understand just what the Young Miss Jun was thinking in her head.

  In the face of Xiong Ba’s fury, and with Imperial Physician Li’s adding fuel to the fire, Jun Wu Xie was still showing the same cold and distant expression. Her pair of eyes that emanated a cold chill swept over the faces of Xiong Ba and the others. She was silent a moment before she said: “It looks like, Hall Chief Xiong is choosing to believe the words of the entire bunch of quack doctors?” Imperial Physician Li’s face went white. He had not thought, even having been put in such a quandary, Jun Wu Xie would still dare to throw out such sarcasm.

  Xiong Ba’s reply was: “I will only ask you, whether you have given our Young Miss any medical treatment.”

  Jun Wu Xie immediately nodded her head without hesitation.
