Upon hearing this, Lu Yao couldn't help but roll her eyes. After entering, she immediately asked the girl at the door to bring her some food.

Then he stared at Old Man Ge with a scrutinizing gaze.

Old Ge felt a little embarrassed by the stares, and chuckled as he poured Lu Yao a cup of tea.

"You must be really hungry to be able to eat this kind of green onion?"

To be honest, Lu Yao looked down on the old man.

If you're into sex, at least have some bottom line, right?

So you're not even going to choose?

Now he even suspects that Old Man Ge's frequenting of brothels is actually for Wang Mama.

"Ahem, you're still young, you don't understand."

Old Ge started putting on airs, adopting the air of a reclusive sage, and said, "Tender tofu has its advantages, and old scallions have their wonders. You'll understand once you've tasted them."

尝?

I would never taste it in my entire life!

Lu Yao's lips twitched; she no longer believed what Old Man Ge had said before.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have imagined that Old Man Ge had such heavy tastes.

Not wanting to bother them any longer, Wang's mother arranged a little foreign horse for Old Man Ge and Lu Yao, then went outside to attend to her own business.

Old Ge was a little unhappy that he didn't get to eat any scallions, so he started chatting with the little foreign horse in his arms.

Lu Yao, on the other hand, began to broaden her horizons.

He really didn't expect that Yiqinglou would have such a foreign girl, and she was obviously more outgoing than the other girls.

Although it didn't go any further, it still broadened Lu Yao's horizons.

Wang's mother also came by midway, mainly to look for Lu Yao.

She kept in mind what Zhou Shaolin had said earlier and planned to have Lu Yao check her daughter's health.

Their profession is not honorable to begin with, and many doctors are unwilling to help them. Some quacks are only concerned with making money and prescribing medicine indiscriminately.

Now that they've met Lu Yao, they naturally need to have a proper discussion.

Lu Yao accepted all comers.

He can earn money and get rewards by treating patients, so he'd love for as many people as possible to come to him for treatment.

Moreover, the conditions offered by Wang's mother tempted Lu Yao.

"If Dr. Lu is willing to examine the girls at my Yiqing Pavilion, all his future visits will be free!"

A freebie delivered right to my door!

Lu Yao will definitely agree.

"Let's make this clear first: I'm willing to see a doctor, but you'll still have to pay for the medicine."

Lu Yao laid the matter out on the table, saying, "If Mama Wang agrees, then have the girls come to Jishetang sometime. If they don't agree, then forget it."

These days, medicinal herbs are too expensive, and Lu Yao also needs to earn a living.

You can't just starve yourself to get something for free.

Mrs. Wang was naturally aware of this, and immediately nodded in agreement, saying that she would make arrangements as much as possible over the next month to get all the girls to come and see Lu Yao.

This made Grandpa Ge, who was standing next to him, very envious.

He hasn't even gotten a freebie yet, and Lu Yao has already taken the lead?

It wasn't until midnight.

Lu Yao then left Yiqing Tower with a satisfied heart.

Grandpa Ge stayed behind; he had brought tiger penis wine with him tonight, determined to have a showdown with Granny Wang.

Upon learning that Lu Yao planned to return, Zhou Shaolin arranged for someone to escort him.

This guy really considers Lu Yao a friend, making Lu Yao feel embarrassed to continue poisoning Zhou Shaolin.

How about we try a weaker poison next time?

Back to Jishetang.

Lu Yao had just locked the door and was heading towards the backyard, intending to get some rest early.

Now that he understood the purpose of the Xuanming Sect's visit, he felt much more at ease. Although he had recklessly revealed the Crimson Blood Flower earlier, it was always better to be more careful later.

As soon as he arrived at this side of the courtyard, he stopped abruptly at the steps.

Beside a stone table in the courtyard, a middle-aged man in a purple robe was leisurely holding a cup of wine, tilting his head back and drinking it all in one gulp.

"Dr. Lu Yao? I didn't want to kill anyone, but unfortunately you have something that's too important."

The purple-robed man calmly said, "Hand over the item, and I'll leave you with a whole corpse, how about that? Dying by my hand is already a favor to you..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Yao suddenly darted out, moving with a ghostly grace.

Not only is it incredibly fast, but it's also extremely difficult to detect.

Before the purple-robed man could finish speaking, a silver needle appeared at his fingertip and pierced the man's brow with lightning speed.

"laugh!"

As soon as the needle was inserted, the purple-robed man's pupils suddenly contracted.

"You know martial arts..."

The man in the purple robe clearly didn't know that Lu Yao had killed a disciple of the Xuanming Sect.

With a mixture of resentment and shock, his pupils began to dilate listlessly: "Five Qi Converging to the Origin... You've been hiding this well..."

After saying that, he slumped onto the table, and the wine glass in his hand rolled off the table.

Lu Yao stared calmly at the man in purple robes and sighed, "Pretending like this when you have no real strength? It scared me to death. I thought you were some kind of martial arts master."

As he spoke, he went and retrieved the corpse-dissolving water.

Before destroying the evidence, he didn't forget to rummage through the purple-robed man's clothes.

Apart from a folding fan, there was nothing else.

They didn't even have any silver.

It's shameful to be so poor and still wander the streets!

Lu Yao stripped the other person's clothes off and then poured a drop of dissolving liquid directly onto the corpse.

The body began to dissolve at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Meanwhile, Lu Yao didn't sit still either. She quickly poured kerosene on the other person's clothes and then set them on fire.

Destroy the body and cover up the evidence!

The man's clothes also bore the marks of the Xuanming Sect, which didn't surprise Lu Yao too much.

It's perfectly reasonable that the Crimson Blood Flower, a rare and precious herb that hasn't appeared for many years, has attracted attention.

Blame it on his lack of experience.

Now all he needs to do is handle things properly.

The Xuanming Sect members seemed to be of average strength, but he was able to handle them thanks to the Sunflower Manual.

It's a pity that it hasn't reached its perfect ending yet.

Should we poison Zhou Shaolin again?

Or perhaps they poisoned those two disciples of the Wanhua Sword Sect?

Anyway, the other party didn't seem like a good person, and he felt no remorse for doing this kind of thing.

After washing the floor clean and taking care of the ashes on the clothes, he stretched and happily went back to his room.

That little foreign girl really broadened his horizons tonight.

You can get it for free in the future.

This saved a lot of money.

Lying in bed, Lu Yao couldn't fall asleep for a while, and instead kept thinking about what the purple-robed man had said before he died.

Five Qi Return to the Origin...

What does this mean?

The other party had clearly spoken to him, and his swift and ambush-like move made it perfectly reasonable for him to catch the other party off guard.

But the other party's shock was also quite obvious.

Could the Five Qi Gathering at the Origin be referring to a realm of martial arts?

Pity.

He didn't know much about the martial arts world, and ultimately suffered from his youth and lack of experience.

I should try to find out more about things in the martial arts world in the future, so I don't get hurt again if I encounter something like this again...
