Volume 4: Nan Yue's Stormy Weather 0134 - The Time of Hunting

  Beyoncé had never been so restless. She hadn't seen Fang Yun for three days, and neither Beidu Academy nor Dongxing Academy could find any trace of him.

  This made Beyoncé's heart feel a sense of unease: "He won't abandon me and leave Nanyue City, will he?"

  "It won't... He and I have a bet that hasn't ended yet, he won't leave me alone..."

  Beyoncé's face was somewhat pale, with a hint of moisture: "If he dares to abandon me, I'll kill him!"

  After waiting for a long time, Chen Daizhuang finally came back, and judging from his expression, he seemed extremely excited.

  Beyoncé hastily stepped forward: "How is it? Have you found out where that stinky kid is?"

  "I heard it!" Chen Dazhuang nodded and said.

  "Yun Shao is now at Canaan Academy." Chen Dazhuang said.

  "What's with Canaan Academy?" Beyoncé was taken aback, unsure why Fang Yun would run off to Canaan Academy.

  "Yun has been seriously injured and is now in the infirmary of Canaan Academy, being taken care of by Master Fangyue." Chen Dazhuang said.

  "Seriously injured?" Beyoncé's face immediately turned extremely ugly, was it because of her own reason? Beyoncé couldn't help but worry about Fang Yun's body.

  After all, her fifty percent of Dou Qi, even if it were steel, would be pierced through, let alone Fang Yun's flesh and blood.

  "It shouldn't be because of your mentor." Chen Daizhuang said with a flickering gaze.

  "Am I?"

  "From what I've gathered, it seems that Yun Shao was assassinated and with his injuries, they were exacerbated." Chen Daizhuang said.

  "Who wants to kill him?" Beyoncé's palm unconsciously gripped the hilt of her sword, a fierce glint flashing in her eyes.

  "Although I've heard some rumors, there's no concrete evidence yet," said Chen Dazhuang.

  "According to reports, Yu Haotian's father, who had his arm cut off by Yun Shao, arrived in Nanyue City a few days ago and hired several famous doctors everywhere." Chen Dazhuang paused for a moment before continuing: "Three days ago, on the day my father invited you all to Baihe Tower, someone saw Yu Shi Xiong's old slave being carried back, and many famous doctors in Nanyue City were summoned. I suspect that was Yun Shao's doing."

  Beyoncé's eyes grew colder, Chen Dazhuang glanced at Beyoncé and continued: "At about the same time, many people saw Fang Yue bring the injured Yun Shao back to Jia Nan College. From a timing perspective, Yun Shao's injury was close to that of the old slave, it is highly likely that they were injured while fighting each other."

  "It's strange, after so many days, he should have shown some signs of improvement, but every time I use my inner energy to examine him, his injuries are still the same, neither good nor bad." Shangguan Rou continued to use her inner energy to examine Fang Yun's body.

  After several days of treatment, Fang Yun's external injury had almost recovered. Shang Guan Rou's medical skills were indeed superb. The external injury that would not have healed in one or two months originally was cured by Shang Guan Rou in just three days.

  On Fang Yun's chest, there were still some faint scars left, but they had already fully healed. What puzzled Shang Guan was that Fang Yun's internal injuries had not recovered even after so many days had passed.

  But there was no sign of improvement at all, which was completely different from her initial expectation. Fang Yun's internal injury was not healed by Shangguan Wan'er's own aura, but rather by his own aura, which was very exclusive and did not allow external aura to enter.

  This situation had also been encountered by Guan Tong, after all many tyrannical Dou Qi were very repelled to foreign Dou Qi, some special Dou Qi even didn't allow other Dou Qi to enter the body.

  When the evil spirit was expelled from his body again, Shangguan Rou had no choice but to give up treatment. At this moment, the sky was already dark, and there were only two people in the medical room, Shangguan Rou and Fang Yun.

  Shangguan Rou suddenly had a mischievous thought and gazed at Fang Yun for a moment before leaning in close to examine her face carefully.

  "It's so similar to Fang Yue when I look at it closely." Shang Guan Yan muttered to himself, recalling the appearance of Fang Yue in his mind, that one thread of loneliness, one thread of cold elegance, and one thread of disdain.

  "Eldest sister..." Shang Guan's lips brushed against hers like a dragonfly touching water, and her face instantly flushed with a red glow. She quickly got up, glanced at Fang Yun on the hospital bed, and muttered to herself: "You lucky kid..."

  The medical building was quiet and silent under the night sky, as it was not a regular hospital, there was no one on duty at night.

  Outside the clinic, on the beams of the house, there were several faint figures. These shadows wore black clothes and moved quickly and stealthily. Even if passersby walked by, they might not have noticed these dark silhouettes.

  At this time, another person fell beside Hei Ying, and that person said in a low voice: "The subordinates have already set up the boundary, no one outside will feel the energy fluctuations, we can start acting now."

  "Alright! The master's orders are to use a secret technique to separate the spiritual body of that young man. You three will keep watch on the outside, and you two will follow me in."

  Three black-clad killers descended into the hospital, and even if there was not a single ray of light inside, it could not stop their footsteps. The eyes of all three faintly emitted a dark glow, just like hunters scanning their surroundings, searching for prey.

  "It's strange, according to intelligence, that young man named Fang Yun should still be in the medical hall, how can't he be found?"

  Three black-clad killers did not notice that in the darkness, there was another pair of eyes watching them.

  He is the true hunter! Fang Yun was like a ghost, darting and weaving in the darkness, following the three people closely, but they were completely unaware of his presence.

  These three people are not ordinary people, but have undergone special training. They can be compared to the most elite killers, and their own strength is unmatched. Even if they are of the same rank, they can still take on three at once. Even if someone is higher than them in level, it's not necessarily possible for that person to kill them.

  But they did not realize that they had become prey for others. They were unaware that long before their arrival, they had already fallen into the hunter's trap.

  The smell of herbs in the clinic dulled their keen senses, and if it were not for their keen sense of smell, like that of hunting dogs, they would have noticed the stranger standing beside them. However, the thick herbal scent made it impossible for them to distinguish between the smell of strangers and the smell of herbs.

  As the most professional hunters, they faintly discovered a sense of unease. The wrong intelligence had already made them vigilant, but the surrounding environment was like a giant stone, heavily pressing on their hearts.

  Halfway through, Shang Guan Mou touched his chest and secretly shouted "Oh no!": "I forgot to bring the 'Dongtu Medical Spectrum'!" Shang Guan Mou quickly turned around and headed back to the medical institute.

  Back at the medical hall, pushing open the large door, the interior of the medical hall seemed unusually quiet and dark. As the only doctor in the medical hall, Shangguan Rou had long been accustomed to this coldness.

  He remembered that there was still a half-dead Fang Yun in the medical room. The upper official lit up the magic lamp and walked into the only single ward.

  But the hospital bed was empty, and Fang Yun's figure was nowhere to be seen. Xiang Yu's heart skipped a beat as he suddenly turned his head around, but there was nothing behind him.

  "Was it my illusion?" Shangguan Rou's mind was filled with doubts, and in the instant she saw the empty hospital bed, she clearly felt that there seemed to be a figure behind her, but how did it disappear in the blink of an eye?

  "Yun brother, come out quickly, where are you hiding..." Shang Guan called out softly.

  Shangguan Yue walked out of the ward and searched everywhere inside and outside but couldn't find Fang Yun's figure.

  "Could he have recovered and left on his own?" Shangguan Rou's mind was filled with doubts, but logically speaking, it should be impossible. In the evening, she had just checked on him, and with such internal injuries, even if he had regained consciousness, he wouldn't have been able to move, let alone leave on his own.

  Just as Shang Guan Wan was suspicious, a black shadow loomed over her back, like a black lightning bolt with a silver glow cutting through the darkness, and in an instant landed behind Shang Guan Wan.

  Shangguan Yan's eyebrows rose slightly, and her body suddenly burst out with a flash of blue light, directly confronting the dark shadow.

  Bang bang - green light and silver light intersected, a pair of shots opened, the green light fell beside Shangguan Wan'er, transformed into a cyan double-tailed fox.

  This double-tailed fox was Shangguan Fei's fighting spirit - Xiang Huo, her fighting spirit was extremely sensitive to any smell, so when she entered the medical hall, she had already sensed that there were strange smells appearing in the medical hall.

  But she couldn't be 100% sure, because these unfamiliar smells were extremely faint, almost nonexistent.

  So after discovering Fang Yun's disappearance, he had already become vigilant and secretly operated his internal energy, ready to strike at any time.

  However, she was still slightly surprised by the other party's strength and concealment technique. If it weren't for her special fighting spirit, she wouldn't have been able to detect the other party's existence at all.

  "Come out, all of you!" Officer Yu hummed coldly, and the fragrant fox's green light surged forth, constantly splitting into more fragrant foxes that flew out and darted towards every corner of the medical institute.

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, with the Nine-tailed Fox's clone attack, two more black shadows emerged in the medical building.

  Shangguan Rou's eyes slightly twitched, and she was secretly shocked. The strength of these black-clothed killers were all above the sixth rank. Even if she were to face one of them alone, she wouldn't necessarily have a full advantage. Now, there were three of them, which made her involuntarily think of retreating.

  "We can't let her get away! Quick and decisive!" one of the black-clad assassins muttered under his breath.

  "Where will you hide Fang Yun?" Upper Official coldly asked, although she didn't think the other party would answer her. However, what was most important to her now was to delay time, because while they were talking, Upper Official had already split her Dou Xin into a Xiang Huo Fox clone and sent it out of the medical hall to seek help.

  "Hmph... Do you think you can wait for rescue?"

  One of the black-clothed killers seemed to have seen through Shangguan Wan's plan, and with a light flick of his finger, the outer layer of the medical building immediately rippled like waves.

  Shangguan Rou's face immediately turned ugly: "Seal!"

  She didn't think that the other party would be so meticulous in dealing with her, even using the boundary, she had no idea that this boundary was originally for prevention, just in case, and it was to avoid alarming the personnel of Canaan College, and Shangguan Rou was just a substitute for Fang Yun's death.

  Shangguan Yan had already made desperate preparations, although her martial arts talent was not bad, but she was not good at fighting. She had almost put all her energy into studying medicine, and compared to warriors or mages of the same rank, she might be slightly weaker.

  Suddenly, a faint scent of blood wafted through the air, and Shangguan Rou's heart skipped a beat: "Could it be that Fang Yun has already fallen into their trap?" Just then, a body thudded heavily to the ground...
