Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor

Chapter 144: Demonic Fox



The irresistible voice was like a string melody echoing in Chen Lianlian's ears: "Lian Lian, do you truly want to push this prince to death?"

The man's deep breath swept across Chen Lianlian's cheeks, coloring them unconsciously with a hint of blush.

In Ye Beiming's eyes was a deep abyss, as if one more glance could swallow a person whole.

Chen Lianlian felt her entire body go limp, unable to utter any superfluous words.

"No, Beiming, it's just..." Chen Lianlian's words abruptly stopped, and her beautiful eyes suddenly widened.

That pair of cold hands tightened their grip, and she could hear her bones emitting a painful groan; Chen Lianlian couldn't speak, her beautiful eyes filled only with fear.

"You might as well try, try screaming, see how many can come," Ye Beiming's fingertips, slender and icy.

He had such beautiful hands, yet now, as his fingers traced her cheek, Chen Lianlian felt an unprecedented fear in her heart.

A severe pain shot through her jaw.

Her jaw shattered painfully alive.

Chen Lianlian was in so much pain she couldn't speak, she hadn't expected Ye Beiming to indeed treat her so mercilessly.

Suddenly she remembered a saying, the Crown Prince once drunk, wrapped his arms around her saying: "Lian Lian, do you know why father Emperor decided to depose Ye Beiming?"

Chen Lianlian remembered, she had just asked in a tender voice at the time: "Isn't it because Emperor of Great Zhou loves you, the Crown Prince?"

The Crown Prince laughed heartily then kissed her face, "That's only part of it, Ye Beiming is a beast, a beast that would even kill his own mother. How could Great Zhou let a beast succeed to the throne?"

At that time, Chen Lianlian thought the Crown Prince was slandering Ye Beiming, but today she realized, Ye Beiming is truly cold-blooded and merciless, just like a beast.

He neither loves her, nor hates her, his gaze upon her was as if he was looking at an object, devoid of life.

If she made the slightest movement, she fully believed that Ye Beiming would break her neck in the next moment.

"You can't... treat me this way, if you are willing to marry me, I can get grandfather to support you," Chen Lianlian still attempted to tempt Ye Beiming with the reign of Great Zhou.

"Do you think, I care about the throne of Great Zhou?" Ye Beiming laughed softly, like a feather, lightly brushing over.

Ye Beiming released his hand and deactivated the Magic Array.

"Remember, she is my limit," Ye Beiming's tall figure disappeared among the flowers.

Chen Lianlian collapsed to the ground, feeling like she was about to die just then.

Ye Beiming's words still circled in her ears.

She… is his limit.

It was that Yun Sheng.

Who says, beasts have no humanity?

Even a beast will have someone they want to protect, Yun Sheng, she is the one he wishes to protect.

"Yun Sheng, you took him away from me, I won't let you off. The Dark Crown Prince wants to capture Yun Sheng. As long as I hand her over to the Dark Crown Prince, she will undoubtedly face a dire fate," Chen Lianlian struggled to get up, enduring severe pain and muttering unconsciously.

"Achoo," Yun Sheng felt a chill creep up her spine.

Yun Sheng rubbed her nose, "Have there been any issues with the management of the medical hall?" Yun Sheng, serving as both the Pharmacist and Doctor for both the Wu Xuan Wuji Hall and the Little Ci'en Hall, had been busy just cleansing the bones and marrow of the martial artists from both the inner and outer halls lately.

"Have there been any issues with the management of the medical hall?" Yun Sheng, serving as both the Pharmacist and Doctor for both the Wu Xuan Wuji Hall and the Little Ci'en Hall, had been busy just cleansing the bones and marrow of the martial artists from both the inner and outer halls lately.

Having finally caught her breath, she went to the Little Ci'en Hall to check on its operational status.

"The situation isn't very optimistic; we are short on manpower for alchemy," Lin Yao'er said, looking troubled.

The efficacy of various elixirs made by Yun Sheng is undoubtedly good, and Doctor Fan is also skilled in alchemy.

However, the alchemical capabilities of just these two individuals are quite limited. Considering that the elixirs for the Little Ci'en Hall at Daoye Mountain are also supplied from here, solely relying on Yun Sheng and Doctor Fan for the elixir supply is indeed difficult.

Lin Yao'er, who has just recently joined the Magic Academy, though hardworking, is still not proficient enough in controlling her magical power to use it for alchemy.

"If we are short on manpower, then let's hire more. I have already advanced some money for you to repair the medical hall and hire a new batch of Medicine Gathering Boys and Medicine Men," Yun Sheng pondered. Inside Yujing City, there should not be a lack of Medicine Men and Medicine Gathering Boys.

"We have already posted announcements in all the major villages and residential areas, and even visited the job centers. Even though our wages are fifty percent higher than others, no one is willing to come to the Little Ci'en Hall," Lin Yao'er lamented.

A job center in the Wuji Continent is an institution similar to an employment agency.

The people at the job center told Lin Yao'er that it is very normal for a new medical hall not to attract Medicine Gathering Boys and Medicine Men due to lack of reputation.

The Little Ci'en Hall, although recognized for the good effects of its elixirs and fair prices, was recently established in Yujing.

The current visitors to the Little Ci'en Hall are either old customers retained from the former Little Huichun Medical Hall or some Hunter Soldiers. It lacks fame.

But even so, the medical hall still needs to recruit some Medicine Men for daily assistance. In early years, Doctor Fan was a lone practitioner, not keen on hiring any Medicine Men or Doctors, and counting it up, Yun Sheng was the first Medicine Person he hired.

Yet, with small fame, the Little Ci'en Hall faces a major headache in recruitment, not to mention becoming a well-known medical hall capable of competing with the Medicine Emperor Pavilion as Yun Sheng envisioned.

The more famous medical halls, such as the well-established Medicine Emperor Pavilion, just need to announce hiring at the job center to attract a large number of applicants.

However, the Medicine Emperor Pavilion itself does not recruit Medicine Men from outside; they all start as Medicine Gathering Boys, gradually being trained to become Medicine Men, Doctors, or even higher-level Doctors.

"If that is the case, let's find a way to increase the reputation of the Little Ci'en Hall," Yun Sheng frowned and pondered for a moment.

"Yun Sheng, why don't we conduct free medical clinics?" Doctor Fan, who had been listening in, suggested an idea.

Back in the days when Doctor Fan was still in the Medicine Emperor Pavilion, he was also deployed to various parts of the country to manage newly established branches of the Medicine Emperor Pavilion.

Newly launched branches, even bearing the name of the Medicine Emperor Pavilion, also inevitably encounter embarrassing situations of having an obscure reputation when entering a new place.

In such cases, Doctor Fan thought of a strategy - free medical clinics, where medical consultations and medicines are provided free of charge.

For the poor, visiting a medical hall is indeed a luxury.

But once a free medical clinic is available, citizens who normally can't afford to treat their illnesses, even those from neighboring cities, rush over.
