Chapter 37: 37 stopped bleeding
Not long after the medicine was sprinkled over the wound, Si Nan, who had previously maintained a cold demeanor, immediately showed an excited expression, “Master, the bleeding has stopped.”
At the same time, everyone in the clinic, including Ye Jiu and Ye Wenqing, felt a sense of relief.
Fortunately, Ye Jiu was grateful that he didn’t have a heart condition; otherwise, with such shocks, he might have met King Yan by now.
At this moment, Ye Wenqing also breathed a sigh of relief, “Sirs, since the bleeding has stopped, may we leave now?”
With these people being so terrifying, he felt more at ease keeping his distance and escaping as soon as possible.
At the same time, the people in the clinic were also eagerly looking at Sikong Mo and his companions, thinking at this moment, who wouldn’t want to run if not a fool.
Now that Sikong Mo’s bleeding had stopped, Si Nan and Si Bei, of course, had to align with their master’s will.
However, Sikong Mo just looked up briefly at everyone with a gaze that seemed lofty, as if all the people in front of him were mere ants.
Sikong Mo did not respond; with just a glance, Si Nan understood his intentions and turned to the crowd, “If anyone dares to leak today’s events, everyone will be executed without mercy!”
“We wouldn’t dare, we wouldn’t dare…” the crowd quickly asserted.
“You may leave,” Si Nan said dismissively.
Immediately, everyone scattered, including the shopkeeper of the pharmacy who didn’t dare to say another word, and he didn’t even bother to look after the pharmacy as he ran out.
Although Ye Jiu had come with the intention of selling medicine, once it involved life, money naturally was not as important as living.
Just as Ye Jiu turned to pull Ye Wenqing’s sleeve, they heard a cool voice from behind, “You two, stop right there!”
Ye Jiu froze in his steps, not daring to move any further.
“Turn around.” Despite his severe injury, Sikong Mo’s voice still held a power that made people dare not disobey.
Ye Jiu slowly turned around, but inwardly he thought this was bad.
She just stood there, not daring to move or speak, fearing that any slight misstep might provoke him to take her life.
After a long while, Sikong Mo suddenly stood up, walked up to Ye Jiu and scrutinized her for a long time, a hint of rare doubt appearing in his eyes, which quickly returned to normal as he swiftly moved away from Ye Jiu, his thin lips uttering a merciless yet relieving sentence for Ye Jiu, “Si Nan, pay them and let them leave.”
Immediately, Si Nan pulled out a silver note from his bosom.
Without even looking at it, Ye Jiu grabbed it along with Ye Wenqing and ran, not stopping until they were far, far away.
Ye Jiu ran very fast, not looking back, nor daring to see the shock in Si Nan’s and Si Bei’s eyes.
Although their prince was young, he excelled in everything he touched, inheriting the throne at eleven and renowned as the youngest War God King of Dongyue by sixteen. Now, at only twenty, even the current emperor had to tread cautiously around him.
The only flaw was his extreme aversion to women, to the extent that seeing one made him want to kill them.
Normally, within three steps of him, no female creature could appear without triggering his rage, which would result in the indiscriminate killing of innocents.
However, today, their lofty prince had unexpectedly stopped a young girl and even observed her closely for a long time, which was enough to shock everyone speechless.
Out of surprise, Si Nan stepped forward and asked with a bow, “My lord, should we check that girl?”
Thinking about it, considering the girl’s and the boy’s attire, they must be just ordinary peasants, yet they possessed such effective medicine that even the doctors could not discern anything unusual, which indeed was quite strange.
