Chapitre 87: The Taming of the Ghost Doctor (1)

Éditeur: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Level seven in the Qi Cultivation ranks."

Huu.

Within the courtyard, Gu Ruoyun exhaled, ridding her body of impure air as she slowly opened her eyes. Suddenly, Elder Yu’s frantic voice rang from the front of the Hundred Herb Hall, "My Lady, someone is looking for you! He's just outside the door."

"Looking for me?" Gu Ruoyun raised her eyebrows, "Who?"

"He's told me that his surname is Liu, and that he sold his ancestral home to you, my Lady."

Upon hearing this, Gu Ruoyun stood up immediately. Her delicate face held a trace of a smile, "It looks like the Ghost Doctor is here. Let's go, Elder Yu. Bring me to him."

Gu Ruoyun was honestly very interested in the Ghost Doctor’s medical skills. If she could entice him into joining her Devil Sect, then they would not need to worry about finding ways to earn money anymore.

If the Ghost Doctor should ever find out about what Gu Ruoyun was thinking, he would most likely rush right over to destroy her. The girl wanted to use the Ghost Doctor, whose very name struck terror into the hearts of the people, as a money-making tool?

What an insult!

Mister Liu was already anxiously waiting outside the door. Upon seeing Gu Ruoyun on her way over, his eyes lit up. He greeted her respectfully, "Lady Gu, the Ghost Doctor is already here. However, I can’t say if she’s willing to let you watch her work, my Lady."

"Don’t worry, even if she does not allow me to go near, I won’t blame you. Let’s go now."

Gu Ruoyun said with a smile.

However, after overhearing their exchange, Elder Yu hurriedly spoke up, "You’re going to meet the Ghost Doctor? I’ll go with you. I’ve heard that the Ghost Doctor is rather unreasonable and has an eccentric personality. The Ghost Doctor is skilled at medicine but is also doubly skilled with poisons. It’s not too safe for you to go alone."

Gu Ruoyun waved her hands dismissively, "Don’t worry, Elder Yu. I know my limits. Mister Liu, if it's not too much trouble, please take me to her."

"Okay. Please follow me, Lady Gu."

Mister Liu gestured respectfully into his home…

...

In the Liu household.

A girl was gently tasting her tea in the main hall. Her movements were slow, graceful and extremely elegant.

She was dressed in an extremely seductive red robe, her alluring figure would send any man’s blood pumping. However, upon seeing that face, their hot, pumping blood would instantly come to a stop…

The reason was not that the girl's face was extremely ugly, but because there were countless scars on one-half of her face. You could even see the bits of flesh that had been turned inside out. The scars ran up from her chin, to the corner of her eyes, completely destroying her beauty.

As she heard the sound of footsteps coming from the front of the house, the girl’s elegant eyebrows were knitted together. She raised her sharp chin and turned to look. Upon seeing Mister Liu, who was extremely late, her tone carried obvious impatience. However, no matter how much impatience she showed, it could not cover her natural charm.

"You really took your time there. I, the Ghost Doctor, am treating this patient out of my own goodwill, and you've actually made me wait for you?"

Mister Liu wiped away his cold sweat, smiled and spoke flatteringly, "O Honorable Ghost Doctor, please forgive your humble servant for arriving late. I’d like to introduce someone to you, honorable doctor. This is Gu Ruoyun from the Hundred Herb Hall. She wants to observe out of great respect for your excellent skills."

The Ghost Doctor’s gaze swept across Gu Ruoyun’s pretty face. A trace of mockery hung on her bright red lips, "No one is allowed to come near while I’m treating patients, especially someone who’s trying to steal my skills! On account of your young age, little girl, I’ll let you leave with your life. Hurry up and get out! Based on your aptitude, you’re not qualified to become my disciple, at all."

The Ghost Doctor may not have strong powers, but she was brilliant in medicine. She could even bring a person, who was already at death’s door, back into life. Because of that, even organizations such as the Dongfang family and the Weapon Refining Sect would need to show her some respect.


Chapitre 88: The Taming of the Ghost Doctor (2)

Éditeur: EndlessFantasy Translation

Who could ever claim that they would never be in need of an emergency treatment within their lifetime?

However, the Ghost Doctor was rather contradicting in her actions. She would never accept disciples, and did not like to have any observers while she was treating her patients. If you offended her, then she would refuse to treat your ailments no matter the price! She has also refused to join any of the current influential organizations.

Gu Ruoyun smiled, "So the great Ghost Doctor only knows a few silly tricks... I thought that the Ghost Doctor would be someone very capable and skilled. I didn’t expect for it to simply be rumors that blew everything out of proportion. Even if you were willing to accept me as your disciple, I wouldn’t want to have you as my master."

"Bang!"

The Ghost Doctor slammed her fist on the table and suddenly rose from her seat. The scars on her face became warped, making her look terribly sinister, "You’ve got guts, you silly little girl! You dare mock my medical skills? Who knows what you were even doing when I made my name as the Ghost Doctor!"

"Oh? Is that so?" Gu Ruoyun raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Since you’re so amazing, then why can’t you cure the scars on your own face?"

The scars on the Ghost Doctor’s face were the sorrows of her entire life. Even now, just thinking about them would cause her heart to ache just as much as it did when they first appeared. Back then, her medical skills were still weak. So all she could do was treat the poison that was infecting her wounds. However, she was unable to restore her original appearance. Even though her medical skills had improved by leaps and bounds since then, her wounds have long aged over the passage of time. How could she possibly treat them now?

Thus, when Gu Ruoyun spoke of her wounds, her face turned black in an instant. A murderous intent suddenly erupted from her body, spreading around the entire hall.

Mister Liu grew anxious, "Lady Gu, please don’t offend the Ghost Doctor any further. If you continue on this way, then my wife won't receive her treatment."

He was regretting it now. He was completely regretting it.

If he had known that Gu Ruoyun would speak to her in this manner, he would never have brought her here. Judging by the Honorable Ghost Doctor’s temper, if anyone were to provoke her, she might not kill the person, but she would refuse to treat them…

"Don’t worry, even if the Ghost Doctor refuses to treat your wife, I’ll be able to return her a clean bill of health," Gu Ruoyun smiled, "Furthermore, I can see that this Ghost Doctor isn’t all that skilled after all, otherwise she would never have left the wounds on her face untreated."

"Hahaha!"

The Ghost Doctor burst into wild laughter. She gritted her teeth with rage as murderous intent burned clearly in her beautiful eyes.

"How boastful of a little girl. This is the first time I’ve ever seen such actions from a little girl! I wasn’t able to treat the wounds on my face, but that’s because it has been far too long. There’s not a single person on this mainland who can cure an affliction that I cannot."

"Is that so? So, what if I’m able to cure it?"

The young girl’s clam and tranquil voice startled the Ghost Doctor momentarily. She then let out a peal of loud laughter, "You’re far too arrogant, little girl. I’ve already told you, no one can cure an affliction that I cannot!"

The corner of the Ghost Doctor's lips carried a trace of disdain. Her mocking gaze swept over the girl’s pretty, delicate face. She never believed that someone in this world could actually surpass her medical skills. So it was even more impossible that that "someone" would turn out to be this girl, who still stank of her mother’s milk!

Seeing how the Ghost Doctor was already hooked, Gu Ruoyun's smile grew even more prominent, "If I successfully cure you, what will you give me for it in return?"

"Hmph!" The Ghost Doctor scoffed, "If you can successfully cure me, then I’ll tell the entire mainland that I, the Ghost Doctor, am no match for your skills."

Gu Ruoyun smiled gently, raised her index finger, and waved it in front of the Ghost Doctor. She shook her head and said, "No, I don’t need you to say that. You’re still the best medicinal practitioner in the mainland. However, I want you to swear your fealty to me and dedicate your entire life to me — never to leave or betray me! If you dare swear that, I dare prove my words to you."

The Ghost Doctor stared blankly for a short moment. I had always enjoyed my freedom, and have even rejected all invitations from influential sects. Now, this little girl is asking me to swear my fealty to her?
