Oh my god, this is a bolt from the blue! A true heiress of metaphysics!

At that moment, Shi Xiaxia's figure rushed forward swiftly like a ghost.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, she suddenly grabbed Zhu Chen's neck with her right hand, her eyes filled with coldness and anger.

She demanded sharply, "Tell me, what exactly do you want?!"

"So fierce?"

Even after being grabbed by Shi Xiaxia, Zhu Chen remained calm and said casually, "Be careful, or nobody will want you."

"I ask you! What exactly do you want to do?!" Shi Xiaxia's eyes flashed with anger, and she unconsciously increased the strength in her hands.

Zhu Chen couldn't help but frown and cough twice.

But a barely perceptible smile played on his lips as he softly said, "Guess."

Shi Xiaxia's face grew increasingly gloomy. She stopped asking questions and instead gripped Zhu Chen's wrist tightly, applying pressure continuously.

Suddenly, with a "whoosh," a silver needle shot towards Shi Xiaxia's temple at an astonishing speed.

Shi Xiaxia keenly sensed the danger and quickly dodged to the side, while turning her head to look at the source of the silver needles.

In the instant she was distracted, Zhu Chen seized the opportunity to strike and break Shi Xiaxia's arm, then quickly broke free from her grasp and distanced himself from her.

Shi Xiaxia's right hand hung limply at her sides, and her eyes were filled with coldness as she looked at Zhu Chen.

Zhu Chen, however, didn't seem to care. He chuckled in his pleasant voice, "Although I don't know your name, I believe we'll meet again soon!"

After Zhu Chen finished speaking, he blew a greasy kiss to Shi Xiaxia, then disappeared in a few leaps.

The person who had thrown the silver needles cried out anxiously upon seeing Zhu Chen flee, "Great Protector! Great Protector! Take me with you!"

However, Zhu Chen ignored him and quickly left the place.

At that moment, Yi Huan saw this person and quickly stepped forward to grab him.

This man was a coward, and immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

Yi Huan didn't say much and simply tied him up.

Then he walked up to Shi Xiaxia, frowned, and asked, "Xiaxia, are you alright?"

Shi Xiaxia shook her head, then raised her left hand, holding what Zhu Chen used to collect ghosts.

"That's awesome!" Yi Huan exclaimed excitedly.

This time, they not only successfully captured witnesses, but also rescued all the ghosts that Zhu Chen had just taken away!

......

Zhu Chen, who had already run far away, suddenly stopped and reached out to touch his waist.

It was only then that he realized his gourd, which he always carried with him, was missing.

His gaze involuntarily drifted towards the school, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.

Finally, a slight, enigmatic smile appeared on his lips as he turned and left.

......

After successfully handling the matters at school and sending away the dormitory supervisor and the captured ghost, Yi Huan carried the injured Yue Mingzhu outside.

Shi Xiaxia followed behind her, and the controlled man with the silver needles also unconsciously followed their steps.

The four of them walked together toward the school gate.

When the support staff guarding the school gate saw them come out, they immediately went up to them and asked, "Are you alright? Are you injured?"

Yi Huan cried out anxiously, "Quickly take us to the hospital! Mingzhu and Xiaxia are both injured!"

One of the support staff members, Yue Ye, quickly responded: "The hospital is a bit far from here, but there is a clinic nearby with highly skilled doctors."

Even though people from the Imperial Hospital invited him many times, they couldn't get him to come. I can take you there to treat your wounds first.

Yi Huan nodded in agreement without hesitation: "Okay! Let's go then!"

Yue Mingzhu's injuries were serious. Although the dormitory supervisor gave her medication, the wound still showed signs of infection after so many days.

After handing the man with the silver needles over to another support staff member, Yue Ye drove everyone to the small clinic.

In less than twenty minutes, they arrived at the door of a clinic located on the old street.

By this time, a long queue had already formed outside the clinic.

"Why are there so many people?"

Yi Huan frowned and said anxiously, "Mingzhu and Xiaxia's injuries can't be delayed any longer!"

Yue Ye hurriedly explained, "This kind of injury allows us to cut in line, and the doctor knows me, so we can go straight in."

“Okay!” Yi Huan nodded, picked up the unconscious Yue Mingzhu, and followed closely behind Yue Ye into the clinic.

Shi Xiaxia looked at the small clinic and paused slightly.

Everything seemed normal on the outside, but she always felt that something was wrong.

However, due to the urgency of the situation, she had no choice but to follow everyone into the clinic.

Upon entering the clinic, several young men in uniform, who appeared to be apprentices, were busy working.

Behind the long table in the main hall sat a man in his forties.

He looked to be only in his thirties or forties, but strangely, his hair was completely white.

What's even stranger is that his appearance is very unique.

Shi Xiaxia could only see that he had a short lifespan, but she couldn't judge anything else about him.

Shi Xiaxia carefully examined the facilities inside the clinic and found that they were both simple and elegant, and also followed the principles of Feng Shui.

This shows that the doctor also has some knowledge of metaphysics.

She saw his name on a banner—Xu Jianshan.

"Dr. Xu!"

Yue Ye said, "Could you please take a look at these two friends of ours? They are injured."

There aren't any major hospitals nearby, so we'll check here first.

"Yue Ye!"

Xu Jianshan smiled and said, "Long time no see! How is your mother's condition?"

Yue Ye smiled slightly: "Thank you for your concern, Dr. Xu. My mother has fully recovered! She has been too busy with work lately and hasn't had time to visit you."

"What's this?"

Xu Jianshan smiled, then beckoned to his disciple to lead Yi Huan into the room and gently place the Moon Pearl on the bed.

After carefully placing the Moon Pearl, Yi Huan stood aside.

Xu Jianshan carefully examined Yue Mingzhu's injuries and exclaimed in surprise, "These are clearly wounds caused by a dagger! It looks like they've been there for half a month!"

"Yes."

Yi Huan nodded slightly, then said vaguely, "Something unexpected happened at the time."

Seeing this, Xu Jianshan did not ask any further questions.

He slowly raised his hand, and one of his apprentices immediately understood and quickly handed him a box full of medical tools.

Xu Jianshan skillfully picked up the tools, gently opened the wound, and then said seriously, "The recovery is going quite well."

However, due to the lack of timely and effective treatment and insufficient medication, the wound showed signs of mild infection.

The necrotic tissue needs to be removed first, followed by meticulous suturing.
