BXBX NOVEL Chapter 2242 Sooner Or Later
Shu Jing turned around and left without saying a word.
She was very fast and disappeared behind the distant mountain in a short while. It looked like she was escaping in a sorry state.
"Pfft." Xiao Ba shrugged. "I told her the truth, but she refused to listen. I thought she was very powerful, but it now seems that she\'s only so-so!"
Chu Liuyue put away the Settling Yuan Pill. "Alright, there\'s no need to make things difficult for yourself because of such a person. Let\'s go."
Xiao Ba blinked and leaned forward. "Master, who do you think that emperor is? Even Shu Jing is so afraid of him!"
The other party didn\'t even come over personally. He only sent someone to deliver a message, and that alone scared Shu Jing so much.
Chu Liuyue narrowed her eyes and shook her head. "I don\'t know, but… To be able to dismiss Shu Jing as the Eighth Deity, he must have a high status."
"That\'s right! Master, I just heard someone beside me say that ever since Shu Jing became the Eighth Deity, she has been tyrannizing the medicinal mountain for more than 10,000 years. That emperor has never interfered. For some reason, he suddenly did this today. What do you think… is going on? Could it be that he specially came to help because he knew that Shu Jing was making things difficult for you?"
"You sure know how to fantasize." Chu Liuyue smiled. I\'ve only been in Fantasy Divine Palace for a short while. This is the first time I\'ve heard of that emperor, let alone seen him. How could it be because of me?
Xiao Ba hugged her arm. "Master, I\'m not spouting nonsense. Look, there was no movement for so long previously. This happened the first time you came to the medicinal mountain. Isn\'t this too much of a coincidence? Actually, it\'s not just me. I think many others think so too!"
Chu Liuyue pondered for a moment. "I think that the emperor has been dissatisfied with Shu Jing for a long time. He happened to have an opportunity today."
Xiao Ba was stunned and muttered softly, "That\'s true…"
In that case, that was very likely the case.
She had always been a carefree person, so she quickly threw this matter to the back of her mind. "Master, when did you become a Supreme Physician? Why didn\'t I know before?"
"Just now. Why?"
"…Forget it. Pretend I didn\'t ask anything." Xiao Ba waved her hand in frustration. Big Brother has been urging me to quickly break through to become a Supreme Physician, but I haven\'t paid much attention to it. Who knew that in the blink of an eye, Master actually broke through just like that!? Besides, is it really appropriate to speak in such a casual tone regarding such a big matter? We\'re both humans, but why is the difference between us so huge?
Xiao Ba gritted her teeth. When I return, I really have to work hard. Otherwise, won\'t it be too embarrassing for Master in the future?
"Please wait!" Liang He\'s voice came from behind them.
Chu Liuyue stopped in her tracks and looked over. "Young Master Liang, is there anything else?"
Liang He glanced at Xiao Ba and cupped his hands at Chu Liuyue, looking a little embarrassed. "Miss Shangguan\'s alchemy skills are outstanding. I admire you."
Previously, he had thought that the other party was only a Senior Physician and couldn\'t be compared to him. Unexpectedly, the person who lost in the end was himself.
Not only did Chu Liuyue directly break through to become a Supreme Physician, but she even successfully refined the Settling Yuan Pill on her first try. He was indeed incomparable to such talent and strength.
He meant what he said about admiring her.
Chu Liuyue smiled nonchalantly. "Young Master Liang, you\'re too kind. Actually, I suggested the competition today because I wanted to get the dragon-taming nut. I hope you don\'t mind."
"No, no!" Liang He immediately waved his hand. "I benefited a lot from being able to spar with Miss Shangguan."
This was the first time he knew that dragon-taming nuts could actually be refined like this! However, he also knew how high the requirements for a heavenly doctor were. With his current strength, it was probably still very difficult.
Chu Liuyue nodded.
Actually, she had no objections to Liang He. Compared to Shu Jing and the others, his attitude was already very good.
Of course, she also knew that a large part of this was because of Xiao Ba. However, Xiao Ba wasn\'t interested in him.
"If there\'s nothing else, Young Master Liang, we\'ll leave first."
Liang He hurriedly said, "Wait! Actually, I do have something to say."
He hesitated for a moment and looked at Xiao Ba. He said nervously and sincerely, "Miss Xiao Ba, I—Liang…"
Xiao Ba sighed. Could it be that I hadn\'t made myself clear enough previously? I\'m really not interested in him!
"Young Master Liang, I don\'t know if you\'ve heard of this saying: You can lead a horse to water but you can\'t make it drink. I\'ve already expressed my stance. What else do you want?"
Liang He didn\'t expect her to be so straightforward and was at a loss for a moment. "I… I just wanted to…"
"Don\'t think about it. I already have someone I like." Xiao Ba interrupted him.
Chu Liuyue glanced at her, seeing that her eyes were smiling and that her expression was relaxed. She swallowed the words that were at the tip of her tongue.
Liang He\'s face instantly turned pale, but he was also a little indignant. "I wonder who Miss Xiao Ba likes? Is it someone from Fantasy Divine Palace?"
"No."
"Then… Miss Xiao Ba, my words may be a little unpleasant, but they\'re all sincere. A girl like you can\'t be compared to ordinary people. Although I have many shortcomings, I\'m considered outstanding in Fantasy Divine Palace. Miss Xiao Ba…"
Xiao Ba blinked. "It seems that Young Master Liang really likes me very much?"
Liang He cupped his hands in obeisance. "My feelings for you are genuine."
"Then…" Xiao Ba tilted her head. "Why don\'t I take you in too? You can\'t sit in the main seat, but seeing that you\'re quite talented as a heavenly doctor, I\'ll give you a seat in the side room. How about that?"
Liang He was shocked and widened his eyes. "Miss Xiao Ba, what did you say?"
Xiao Ba shrugged sadly. "Didn\'t you hear it? Sigh, there are really many handsome bachelors in the world. I can\'t bear to part with any of them. If Young Master Liang is willing to lower himself—it\'s not like I can\'t give you a chance."
Big Brother has already said that he would allow me to recruit a son-in-law!
Liang He finally realized what she was talking about. For a moment, his blood surged, and his emotions were intense.
After a while, he finally waved his sleeve. "Even if Miss Xiao Ba doesn\'t like me, there\'s no need to humiliate me like this! Just take it that I\'ve lost my mind! From now on, I won\'t pester you anymore!"
With that, he left angrily.
Chu Liuyue glanced at him. "Tsk, you\'re really too popular. No matter what, he\'s the youngest Supreme Physician in Fantasy Divine Palace. If he\'s angered by you and runs away just like that, who knows what others will say if word gets out…"
Xiao Ba came over with a smile. "Master, aren\'t you the youngest Supreme Physician now? If he\'s angry, so be it. What\'s so important?"
Chu Liuyue shook her head helplessly and smiled. Then, she pulled her back. "Someone will deal with you sooner or later!"
