Jun Yan looked at the closed eyes of Wuchen, who was asleep and unwilling to converse with him, his eyes brimming with tears.
He sat in the chair for a while, watching Wuchen, recalling everything that had occurred between them since his birth, only to realize there was barely anything to remember.
He owed him far too much.
Jun Yan stood up, turned off the light for Wuchen, and then left the hospital room.
He turned and went to the room of the old Master Jun. Jun Qing’s figure was no longer there, and he didn’t know where he had gone, while the old Master Jun seemed to have also fallen asleep.
In the end, Jun Yan left the room and sat in the corridor outside, remaining there until daylight.
"Master, there’s trouble. Last night, Medicine King Feng Liyan from the Cat Demon Clan wounded our Demon Clan’s younger members, forced his way through the portal, and arrived in the Human Realm." Read complete versıon only at novel·fire·net
"Feng Liyan? Has he come for Wen Xiao’ai?" The man frowned.
"That’s, that’s possible..." Ye Yin lowered his head, unwilling to meet the man’s gaze, clearly concealing other matters, not fully reporting to the man.
"Wen Xiao’ai ran away on her own, didn’t she? Didn’t I instruct you to guard near the portal and only intercept them if they are coming to the Human Realm? Did you let them discover something? Did you not convey my words to them?" the man questioned.
"...Your subordinate does not know."
"Does not know? What does that mean?" The man’s eyes were icy.
"Do you understand the kind of end I will meet if they find out that I’m not dead, still in the Human Realm, and plotting to return to the Demon Realm?"
"Your subordinate has failed in his duty, but you needn’t worry, Master. Only Feng Liyan broke through the portal last night, and no one else from the Cat Clan was alerted. Plus, Feng Liyan himself was seriously injured and reverted to his original form by our men. For now, he won’t affect us," Ye Yin said, still not daring to look up at the man.
Because he knew very well that the reason why the other demons of the Cat Demon Clan didn’t know about the portal was that the entire Cat Demon Clan had suffered a catastrophe...
"Are you the fool or am I the fool? Feng Liyan has disappeared, causing such a commotion; can you keep it secret for a day or two? Can you guarantee you will find the last person before the Cat Demon Clan discovers the portal?"
The man was visibly agitated, yet considering the place he was in, he had to lower his voice.
"...Your subordinate cannot."
The man was frustrated: "Send someone else to find Feng Liyan; he must not meet Wen Xiao’ai or discover what transpired here."
"And once he’s found, what should be done with him?"
After a moment of silence, the man said, "Do not hurt him, find him and notify me immediately; I will figure out a way to imprison him first."
Yingying is now the Princess of the Cat Demon Clan, regardless of whether she can remember her past or not, her feelings towards the Cat Demon Clan forbid him from harming any demon of the clan.
"What has Zuo Yan been up to recently?"
"He’s, he’s done nothing; ever since passing on your orders last time, he’s been behaving himself."
Ye Yin said this, his head instinctively dipping even lower due to the panic inside.
Because he was not telling the truth.
Zuo Yan had not only failed to behave himself but had also led troops into the Cat Demon Clan once again.
He had slaughtered half of the Cat Demon Clan.
Both Feng Liyan and the man in white who was rescued by Feng Liyan were wounded by Zuo Yan.
If this had happened earlier, he could have told his master, but now he could not.
The master had expended too much Vital Energy to save his wife; if he told the master now, the master would undoubtedly confront Zuo Yan in person.
If Zuo Yan saw the master’s current condition, it was uncertain he wouldn’t harbour ill intentions again.
