The Divine Doctor and Adorable Consort: The Demonic Emperor is Too Cunning

After them, there were several groups of people.

One of the groups was Yi Lingyun, Lüye, Elder Liang, and their companions.

One of them, however, was a remnant of the Shadow Palace.

The other group was the armored guards sent by Emperor Mingde.

Despite her arduous journey, Fang Qingyou was filled with worry, but she noticed that the once desolate and lifeless land had begun to recover some vitality.

The original yellowish color began to show some green.

Although these green hues are almost negligible, like fine down, they bring a sense of hope to the otherwise lifeless, withered yellow landscape.

These green hues also gave Fang Qingyou a glimmer of hope.

Is there any hope for Lingnan City?

Similarly, I was also a little surprised. It's clearly not springtime when everything comes back to life, but in just half a month, the plants here have regained their vitality?

This is truly contrary to the laws of nature.

She always felt that something must have happened during the time she was away to cause this change.

However, such a large-scale natural change is beyond the capabilities of ordinary human beings, and the cause cannot be immediately identified.

Fang Qingyou was unaware that the land began to recover from the moment she accidentally dropped a drop of Purple Spirit Water on the ground.

The reason for all this was that drop of purple spirit water, though she was unaware of it yet.

After a long and tiring journey, Fang Qingyou returned to Lingnan City, travel-worn and exhausted.

However, before returning to Lingnan City, they disguised themselves back to their ordinary appearance when they left.

When they left, they all left behind disguised doubles in Lingnan City.

Now, however, we don't know what has become of these stand-ins.

The closer Fang Qingyou got to Lingnan City, the heavier her mood became.

She was a little scared, afraid that she would see a dead city.

Although she only stayed in Lingnan City for a few days, she put her heart into it and genuinely wanted to help the city and its disaster victims.

She really didn't know how she would face it if something really happened to them.

Yuefei, Xuanlan, and the others also looked extremely solemn, wondering how serious the situation in Lingnan City had become.

Luo Qianmo maintained his indifferent expression, his dark eyes revealing no emotion whatsoever.

As they approached Lingnan City, Fang Qingyou grew increasingly nervous, so much so that she could hear her own heart pounding.

Upon arriving outside Lingnan City, the scene that greeted them was quite different from the desolate scene they had imagined.

The city gates were wide open, and there were far fewer tents outside.

Inside the tent, people were constantly going in and out; judging from their attire, they seemed to be doctors.

Although these people were walking in a hurry, they did not appear anxious, helpless, or desperate.

How is this going?

Not only Fang Qingyou, but also Luo Qianmo, Yue Fei, Xuan Lan and others looked puzzled.

Wasn't it said that Lingnan City was ravaged by plague and had become a dead city?

But judging from the current situation, it seems to be somewhat different from what was reported?

Fang Qingyou suppressed her doubts and spurred her horse forward.

Before Luo Qianmo, Fang Qingyou and their group even reached the city gate of Lingnan City, they were stopped by the guards.

However, before the guard could ask any questions, someone stepped forward and instructed the guard, "They are our men."

The guard's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly let them pass.

Luo Qianmo, Fang Qingyou, and their group entered the city gate and observed the situation inside the city along the way.

The city was guarded by a large number of guards. Although these guards were not clean in appearance, they were not listless in spirit.

The area inside and outside the city was similar; although it was in decline, it did not have much of a deathly atmosphere.

Judging from this, it seems like things have returned to calm after a period of chaos.

A thought suddenly arose in Fang Qingyou's mind.

Could it be that someone has brought the plague in Lingnan City under control?

The image of Xiaoyaozi immediately appeared in his mind.

Suppressing her inner turmoil, Fang Qingyou returned to the courtyard, feigning composure.

"Miss!" Mingyue and the stand-in who had been pretending to be Fang Qingyou living in Lingnan City immediately came forward.

Seeing the two of them immediately made me feel much lighter. Thankfully, they were still alive and well.

I had a suspicion in my mind, and after seeing the two of them, that suspicion became more and more certain.

As Fang Qingyou removed the items, she inquired about the situation in Mingyue Lingnan City.

"Young lady, not long after you and His Highness left, a plague broke out in Lingnan City..."

After Mingyue finished describing the situation in the shortest possible words,

"So it was Master who ultimately saved Lingnan City?" Although she had long guessed that it was Xiaoyaozi, she still found it hard to believe when she heard Mingyue say this.

The word "master" sounded a bit stiff.

After all, there had been some distance between them since that incident. She couldn't see through Xiaoyaozi, nor did she completely trust him.

She didn't understand why Xiaoyaozi would save Lingnan City, nor did she understand what his purpose was.

"Yes, Physician Xiaoyaozi's medical skills are superb, almost miraculous. He pulled Lingnan City back from the brink of death when it was on the verge of collapse."

As she spoke, Mingyue's eyes shone with admiration.

Fang Qingyou was astonished. Mingyue was very loyal, and this was the first time she had ever seen Mingyue show such an expression towards anyone other than Luo Qianmo.

"Master's medical skills are indeed superb," ​​Fang Qingyou casually echoed, not wanting others to notice the rift between them.

After washing up, Fang Qingyou appeared before everyone as Fang Qingyou.

She originally planned to head directly to the outskirts of Lingnan City, where the most severely affected patients were being housed. Fang Runtin, Elder Xing, and She Ruifeng were also there.

However, Fang Qingyou never expected that before she even saw the person she was looking for, the first person she would encounter was Xiaoyaozi.

Of course, Xuanqing kept a close eye on Xiaoyaozi.

"My dear disciple, why are you out here?!" Upon seeing Fang Qingyou, Xiaoyaozi showed a look of surprise and joy.

"I'll come out and take a look." Fang Qingyou felt that Xiaoyaozi must have realized long ago that the "Fang Qingyou" left in Lingnan City was a fake, but judging from his expression, he didn't seem to have noticed her secret departure.

Even so, her intuition told her that he must have noticed.

Although Fang Qingyou knew some medical skills, they were naturally no match for his own. With Xiaoyaozi's shrewdness, how could he not notice?

"My dear disciple, would you like to help your master?"

"Hmm." Fang Qingyou didn't offer much explanation for Fang Qingyou's continued helplessness and indifference towards the plague.

The more you explain, the more suspicious people become.

Besides, she did come here to help.

"Then come with me quickly!" Xiaoyaozi smiled and waved to her.

"Yes." Fang Qingyou lowered her eyes, deliberately putting on an expression of complete obedience to her master.
