After all, she had just suffered a great loss at Bai Hua's hands not long ago. If she were to act rashly now, she would ultimately be the one to suffer.

However, not taking action doesn't mean she can't annoy Bai Hua.

"Young master, I have traveled all the way from Tushan and am quite exhausted. Would you allow my daughter to stay at your esteemed residence for a few days?"

With a gentle smile, Moxi believed that no man in the world could refuse such a request from her.

However, before Chen Yuze could speak, Bai Hua had already flashed in front of him, protecting him like a mother hen guarding her chicks.

"Keep dreaming, Tu Shan Mei happy!"

"Hmph, I'm asking about Young Master Chen behind you. This villa shouldn't be a place for you, Bai Hua, to make decisions, right?"

Suddenly, the smell of gunpowder filled the courtyard again.

Seeing this, Chen Yuze could only smile wryly and try to smooth things over:

“Miss Moxi, my humble abode was originally established by me to treat demon beasts. If I were to take in a beautiful, single woman like you without any reason, wouldn’t that be against the rules?”

"That's right!" Seeing that her master was also on her side, Bai Hua nodded her head vigorously, as if she were pounding garlic.

However, Moxi was not impatient. Instead, she adopted a delicate and frail demeanor towards Chen Yuze: "Young Master Chen is absolutely right, but how can you know if my daughter is unwell if you haven't examined her yet?"

"This……"

Chen Yuze was slightly taken aback, but quickly nodded.

If Moxi really came to see a doctor, he really had no reason to drive her away for no reason.

“Miss Moxi, please extend your hand so I can take your pulse.”

"Thank you for your help, Dr. Chen."

With a slight smile, Mei Xixuan sat down opposite Chen Yuze, even under Bai Hua's murderous gaze, and stretched out her fair, jade-like arm.

As the Empress of Tushan, she had plenty of ways to fake illnesses.

However, as he continued to take her pulse, Chen Yuze's brows furrowed.

With a system

With his blessing, Chen Yuze could obviously see that the symptoms were faked by Mo happy.

The problem is, this girl does have quite a few potential health issues!

“Miss Moxi, you really need to take good care of these hidden injuries on your shoulders and abdomen, as well as the one less than an inch to the left of your back.”

“What…” Upon hearing Chen Yuze’s diagnosis, Mo happy’s eyes widened immediately.

It should be noted that these three hidden injuries had been present in her body for hundreds of years, and were extremely well concealed. Even the best physicians in Tushan would likely not have been able to detect them unless she brought them up herself.

But this young master in front of me was able to pinpoint the location of these three hidden injuries in detail simply by taking their pulse.

However, what surprised Moxi even more was what Chen Yuze said next:

"Furthermore, although you have been suppressing the inner demon within Miss Moxi with your profound cultivation, as the saying goes, extremes meet. Once your hidden injuries erupt, that inner demon will seize the opportunity to retaliate. To put it bluntly, if you don't eliminate this inner demon as soon as possible, I'm afraid that one day, Miss Moxi will suffer greatly at its hands. At that time, if Miss Moxi is still in her eight-tailed form, her demise will be a foregone conclusion."

"Who exactly are you!?"

She stared at Chen Yuze with wide eyes, looking slightly flustered.

If Chen Yuze's previous pointing out of the three hidden injuries in Mo Xi's body only made Mo Xi secretly admire his medical skills, then pointing out the inner demons had already begun to terrify her.

After all, the inner demon within her was something her biological parents had suppressed over a thousand years ago, before she became empress, by sacrificing their lives.

Even on Mount Tu, only one former empress who experienced that incident knew about it.

It can be said that, apart from anonymously writing and illustrating storybooks, this inner demon is the biggest secret in Moxi's heart.

But now, this secret that she had kept in her heart for over a thousand years was revealed by Chen Yuze with just a pulse diagnosis, no wonder Moxi was so terrified.

Faced with Meixi's sudden wariness, Chen Yuze remained as calm and collected as ever.

"Just as you see, Miss Moxi, I am but an ordinary mountain doctor. But please rest assured, Miss Moxi, give me the next six months, and I will not only heal your three hidden injuries, but also completely eradicate your inner demons!"

123. Don't you all practice fasting?

"It can heal my hidden injuries in just six months and even dispel my inner demons!?"

Hearing Chen Yuze's words, Moxi couldn't help but sneer, "This is something even the best physician in Tushan can't do. Isn't Young Master a little too confident?"

"Pooh!"

Seeing that this ungrateful Moxi dared to doubt her master, Bai Hua couldn't help but say, "My young master's medical skills are unparalleled in the world. How can he be compared to those incompetent people from Tushan?"

"Hilarious! Anyone can talk the talk, but if you're really that good, show me some proof!"

"evidence?"

With a cold snort, Bai Hua immediately revealed her true form—the nine-tailed fox—behind her: "How many tails are there? Have you counted them?"

"Could it be..."

With a furrowed brow, Moxi finally realized that something was amiss: "Your nine-tailed bloodline only evolved successfully with Young Master Chen's help?"

"Heh, that's for sure." With a proud sway of her nine fluffy tails, Bai Hua suddenly remembered something her cousin Bao Si had once said: "My young master has connections everywhere! A mere matter of evolving bloodlines is nothing to him!"

"..."

Moxi stopped talking and instead kept shifting her gaze between Bai Hua and Chen Yuze.

Considering Chen Yuze's behavior when he took her pulse, Mo happy ultimately chose to believe his explanation.

Firstly, his medical skills are indeed extraordinary.

Secondly, although Moxi didn't like Bai Hua, she didn't think Bai Hua would deceive her in such a matter.

"Then, Young Master Chen, would it be possible for my daughter to stay at your esteemed residence for a while, as a patient?"

"alright."

Nodding, Chen Yuze naturally had no reason to send Moxi away since she was indeed ill.

However, at this moment, he did not notice just how desperate the expressions on the faces of Yuanbao, Ruyi, and Chilian were on the stone table behind him.

Oh my god, it's a fox again!

While inwardly complaining, the three glared fiercely at Bai Hua, as if rebuking her: "Why are you talking so much to that red-haired fox?"

It's strange, really.

Bai Hua's cultivation level was clearly much higher than that of Ru Yi and the others, but under the watchful eyes of the three of them, she felt a little guilty.

"Well, I admit that what I said just now was indeed a bit too impulsive and thoughtless. But wasn't I defending you, young master?"

She tried her best to explain to her sisters, but no matter how Bai Hua explained, her words were so pale and powerless at this moment.

Especially with her sisters' expressions that said, "I'm never playing mahjong with you again," Bai Hua even felt that the world was on the verge of collapse.

At this moment, Bai Hua really wanted to slap herself.

Oh, you're just wasting your time.

What were you bragging about to Tu Shan Mo Xi just now?

Well, now that's a mess. In the process of showing off, they've also dragged that wicked woman from Tushan into the mix.

Bai Hua's actions this time are truly regrettable; he went from the duodenum to the small intestine, and then from the small intestine to the large intestine.

……

On the other hand, having decided to stay on Changqing Mountain for half a year, Moxi naturally had to give her subordinates some instructions first.

After nodding to Chen Yuze and the women in the house, she walked alone to a corner of the courtyard, took out a communication array, and contacted her confidant.

Unlike Qingqiu, Tushan is now very stable and prosperous under the rule of several female emperors. Even if Moxi is away for three to five years, her trusted ministers can still manage Tushan very well.

After resolving the issue of whether Moxi should stay or leave, Chen Yuze naturally went into the kitchen to prepare lunch for the girls.

When he placed all sorts of dishes on the stone table in the courtyard, Mo happy, who had just finished explaining to her subordinates, immediately showed a very strange expression.

"Young Master Chen."

Watching Chen Yuze dividing the bowls and chopsticks, Moxi couldn't help but ask, "Don't you guys practice fasting?"

"Man is made of iron, food is made of steel; you'll get hungry if you skip a meal."

Chen Yuze smiled at Moxi and then handed her a bowl and chopsticks: "My family's food can not only strengthen the body, but also increase cultivation. From today onwards, Miss Moxi, you don't need to fast anymore."

"It can strengthen the body and increase cultivation level?"

It must be said that the meal Chen Yuze prepared was indeed quite delicious. However, Mo Xi remained skeptical of his claims about its effects.

After all, the way this family cultivates immortality is far removed from traditional cultivation methods.

However, since Chen Yuze had already handed over the bowl and chopsticks, Moxi naturally had to give him some face and eat some as well.

But to her surprise, once the chopsticks started moving, they couldn't stop. Even the speed at which she moved them was getting faster and faster.

Thanks to this, the other girls had no choice but to speed up their work as well.

In an instant, the entire stone table was filled with the afterimages left by the girls as they quickly picked up food.

"?"

Chen Yuze was stunned when he saw the plate empty in no time.

Ruyi and the other two are one thing, but what's with Baihua and Moxi? Where's your queenly demeanor?

Even beggars on the street aren't this ruthless when it comes to food!

Left with no other choice, Chen Yuze quickly protected the remaining half bowl of tomato and egg soup and made himself a bowl of rice porridge with egg soup.

"That's amazing."

After eating and drinking her fill, and feeling the increase in demonic power within her body, Mo Xi's eyes sparkled with wonder!

At the same time, she also developed more affection for Chen Yuze.

After all, not everyone can be so generous to a complete stranger.

"Young Master Chen, this welcome banquet must have cost you a fortune, right?"

"What welcome banquet?"

Chen Yuze, who was clearing away the dishes, tilted his head and said, "I came back a little late today, and this meal was all made on the spot. But I also caught two pheasants today. We can use one to make soup and roast the other tonight."

"???"
