A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

Uncle Liu looked at Feng Jiutian with a hint of apology, but still said firmly, "Young lady, although I understand how you feel, the Liu Hai family has a family rule that one cannot practice medicine before the age of twenty, otherwise there will be a catastrophic disaster. As his guard, I must prioritize his safety, and I hope you can understand. Their family only has Liu Hai left, and I dare not take the risk."

After hearing his heartfelt words, Feng Jiutian paused, speechless.

Uncle Liu is Liu Hai's bodyguard. He watched Liu Hai grow up and is also a bodyguard for the entire region.

He knew these rules best, and he also knew the consequences of disobeying the dying instructions.

Although Liu Hai is very talkative, you can tell he is a kind-hearted boy and is genuinely friendly to her.

If she were to risk his life and destruction by breaking his dying wish in order to save Qingzhi, she would have no face to do it!

Feng Jiutian stood there silently.

Uncle Liu looked somewhat reluctant, but still forced himself to say, "Young lady, I know my words are a bit difficult, and I understand your feelings very well, but please forgive me, I really can't gamble with the destruction of a family."

Liu Hai... is the last hope for the river basin. Liu Hai also told you that everyone in the upper reaches of the river basin is dead.

The small village you see is a tributary of the river basin, and also the last remaining inhabitants of the basin. Their faith is in the Liuhai (river), and if the Liuhai is destroyed, it means the entire basin is finished.

Feng Jiutian lowered her eyes, then suddenly looked up and stared intently at Uncle Liu.

"Uncle Liu, what if I just let Liu Hai take a look, without having to treat him myself?"

Uncle Liu didn't react for a moment and looked at Feng Jiutian with a puzzled expression.

Feng Jiutian looked at Uncle Liu, a hint of seriousness appearing on his usually indifferent face: "Uncle Liu, this time time is really tight. Can you trust me this once? I will absolutely not let him perform the treatment."

Uncle Liu looked at Feng Jiutian with a slight surprise!

He was also extremely reluctant to do so in his heart.

He wouldn't have stopped Liu Hai if it weren't for the rules set by his ancestors.

This time!

Liu Hai quickly ran over, carrying a small bag in his hand: "Sister Jiutian, Uncle Liu, I'm all packed."

Uncle Liu took the small bag from Liu Hai and stood behind him without saying a word.

There was no attempt to stop them, nor were there any further words.

This attitude suggests that he agrees with what she said.

Feng Jiutian smiled, her tense expression relaxing considerably.

Despite using her fastest speed, Feng Jiutian still managed to waste a considerable amount of time running with her bangs flowing down her back.

Although Liu Hai himself is highly skilled in medicine, unfortunately, his cultivation level is actually not very high!

Uncle Liu usually protects him, but when it comes to traveling, even if Uncle Liu is very skilled, it's useless; Liu Hai can only rely on himself.

As a result, Feng Jiutian had no choice but to patiently wait for Liu Hai. What should have been a short trip took a full day and night.

……

Upon arriving at the Prime Minister's residence, Liu Hai looked at the residence before him, somewhat at a loss.

"Sister Jiutian, are you that rich?"

Looking at the magnificent Prime Minister's Mansion, Liu Hai realized that Feng Jiutian was even more powerful than he had imagined.

Feng Jiutian glanced at the three gilded characters of the Prime Minister's Residence. The three large characters, written in a flamboyant and elegant style, seemed particularly ironic to Feng Jiutian.

But now, there's no time to worry about those things.

Feng Jiutian led Liu Hai all the way to Nanyuan. Along the way, they encountered countless guards who looked at Feng Jiutian respectfully the moment they saw her, not daring to utter a single word.

This intimidating power made Liu Hai wonder.

Liu Hai suppressed his doubts and followed closely behind Feng Jiutian, who was walking quickly. Uncle Liu protected Liu Hai from behind, his eyes slightly dark.

Inside the house in Nanyuan, the golden snake was guarding the door. When it saw Feng Jiutian, its eyes lit up, and it twisted its body and crawled to Feng Jiutian's front. At the same time, a childish voice rang in its mind: "Master, there were two bad guys who came, but I chased them away."

Two bad guys?

At this point, it could only be Qian Wanyi and her daughter who arrived.

Feng Xiangyu was busy treating Feng Xuan and had no time to pay attention to this side.

It seems that my decision before leaving was indeed the right one, otherwise Kiyoshi would probably be dead by now.

A murderous glint flashed in Feng Jiutian's eyes. He turned around, looked at Liu Hai who was walking in next, and said in a low voice, "The person I asked you to save is in here."

Liu Hai subconsciously gripped his small bag tighter and nodded seriously.

Uncle Liu looked at the golden snake with a solemn expression.

Sixth-level monster?

I never expected there to be high-level magical beasts here, and they don't even seem to be magical pets!

But why does it call Feng Jiutian its master?

Could it really be a magical pet?

The golden snake also sensed the fluctuations of spiritual energy. It glanced at Uncle Liu and was somewhat surprised to find such a powerful person here.

"Master, master, this man is quite strong. May I eat him?"

Feng Jiutian looked at Uncle Liu and couldn't help but twitch his lips. He quickly said, "You're not allowed to eat people!"

The golden snake looked a little aggrieved. It turned into a beam of white light, shrank its body, and once again burrowed into Feng Jiutian's sleeve.

Seeing this, Uncle Liu looked somewhat surprised, but even more cautious.

Liu Hai wasn't as sensitive to the golden snake, perhaps because he was easygoing; he just felt that the golden snake was no different from other magical pets.

Feng Jiutian pushed open the door and entered the room. Qingzhi was still lying flat on the bed, her face growing paler and her breathing barely perceptible, as if she would pass out at any moment.

Feng Jiutian's heart tightened, and he strode forward to make room for Liu Hai to stand to the side.

Liu Hai, who was usually playful, became quite serious, looking intently at Qingzhi and casually putting down the small bag beside him.

Feng Jiutian waited on the side, watching as Liu Hai carefully examined Qingzhi.

After an unknown amount of time, Liu Hai reached out his right hand, wanting to check Qingzhi's pulse, but was immediately grabbed by Uncle Liu.

"You cannot take a pulse; do not forget what your father told you."

Liu Hai's eyes darkened, and he looked at Feng Jiutian with some difficulty: "Sister Jiutian, your friend's illness is not incurable, but..."

"In this world, I'm afraid there's no one but me who can cure him."

Liu Hai said calmly. Although her words were extremely arrogant, Feng Jiutian knew that she was telling the truth.

"Tell me how you need treatment, and I'll take care of it. You don't need to do anything."

Feng Jiutian said firmly, her words almost causing Liu Hai to stumble.

"You come?"

Liu Hai repeated incredulously, frowning slightly: "Sister Jiutian, do you know anything about medicine? You need to know that when treating someone, if you make a mistake in any step, you could kill them."

Feng Jiutian sneered inwardly.

How many people has she killed? Countless souls have perished under her blade.

Since she knows the art of killing, she also knows the structure of acupoints on the human body better than anyone else.
