As if it was a bond of fate, from the moment that girl opened her radiant eyes in the Taotie Pavilion, his heart was firmly drawn there, unable to break free.
But what does it matter if he can't break free? Nangong Yu has never failed to get the person he wants.
At this moment, the guard's voice was heard outside the door, "Master, Zhuque wants to see you."
Soon, a beautiful woman in red clothes walked into the room and knelt down to salute Nangong Yu.
Her movements were as graceful as flowing water, yet she still had an heroic aura. When she knelt on the ground, her chest and abdomen were slightly raised, revealing her beautiful body curves.
Nangong Yu said: "Get up. How is the injury of the person I asked you to see?"
Zhuque slowly stood up, his icy face slightly frowned, his eyes flashed with contempt, but his face was still respectful: "My lord, Miss Nalan only has superficial injuries, she is not seriously injured."
It was only after Zhuque came back that he found out that the person living in that remote villa without even any spiritual energy was actually the third daughter of the Nalan family, who was born out of wedlock and was a waste who had long been abandoned by the Nalan family.
Not to mention the Nalan Mansion, the people in the Pluto Palace would not even take her seriously. With her humble birth and useless physique, she actually dared to dream of seducing her master. She deserves to die!
Nangong Yu nodded. He used his spiritual power to check He Xi's body. Of course, he knew that there was nothing wrong with her body now. However, when he thought of the criss-crossing scars, a chill still swept through his heart.
"Can all the scars on her body heal?"
Zhuque lowered his eyes, hiding his thoughts. His hands hanging by his side suddenly clenched, and he said in a self-deprecating tone, "Master, I am a fifth-rank physician. If I can't even treat a simple scar, how can I be qualified to serve you?"
She secretly raised her eyes and saw Nangong Yu had a half-smile on his face but no reaction. She bit her lip and said casually, "Because Miss Nalan's injuries were only caused by ordinary objects and did not hurt her skin, I originally planned to give her a bottle of second-grade Qingyu Dew, which was more than enough. Although the efficacy of this medicine is average and the recovery time is long, its medicinal properties are mild, which is good for a mortal like Miss Nalan. Who knows... Who knows..."
Zhuque glanced at Nangong Yu, and seeing that he had stopped smiling and frowned slightly, he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and continued: "Miss Nalan probably knows that I am a fifth-grade physician, so she actually wants one of each elixir. But those elixirs are all above the third grade, and ordinary people will explode and die if they take them. I tried my best to persuade her for a long time, but Miss Nalan not only didn't listen, she also said... also said... She is someone you value, and I am just a servant. I just need to obey her orders. I really have no choice but to give her one of each elixir."
Nangong Yu had a half-smile on his face, neither scolding nor comforting, he just asked: "Oh, really?"
Zhuque felt uneasy when he saw his master's meaningful gaze. He could only suppress the guilt and fear in his heart and nodded.
Nangong Yu suddenly said in a deep voice: "But I remember that I asked you to bring the fourth-grade Jade Muscle Pill. Suzaku, are you pretending to obey my orders but secretly disobeying them?"
"I dare not!" Zhuque trembled with fear and fell to his knees with a plop. (To be continued)
