Chapter 274 – Bet on your kind heart
Finished speaking, Chu Qing-Yan, with a nervous heart, waited for her reaction.
But the end result made her lose hope.
Cheng Yan-Luo couldn’t keep it down and gave several low laughs. But that laugh in other people’s ears was full of endless sorrow. “If I help you now, then who would have helped the me from that time.”
Chu Qing-Yan opened her mouth slightly and wanted to say something more, but Cheng Yan-Luo was a step before her, saying. “You don’t need to say more, I have already made my decision. Sha Feng, see the visitors out!”
Finished speaking, Cheng Yan-Luo detoured around her. When Chu Qing-Yan returned to her senses and once again wanted to stop her, Sha Feng had already walked in front of her to block her. “Please!”
Seeing Cheng Yan-Luo was about to enter the back courtyard, Chu Qing-Yan’s heart became so anxious that it was as if it was on fire.
“No, you can’t just walk away like this!” Fire Spirit’s body flipped around and landed in front of Cheng Yan-Luo. He lifted his sword and said to her. “Miss Cheng, hope you can lend a hand and help save him!”
Sha Feng immediately got in front of Cheng Yan-Luo to block him, with his anger soaring, he said. “What do you guys want to do in the end? We said we won’t save, then we won’t save. Why would you guys still force us to comply!”
Cheng Yan-Luo wasn’t a bit afraid as she looked toward Fire Spirit. Her tone carried mockery. “What? Using soft persuasion didn’t work, so now you want to use threat? But this lady just won’t eat this kind of behavior!”
“Miss Cheng, we really don’t want to force you. If the situation didn’t compel us, as Xiao Lie Cavalry, we would never make things difficult for people.” Earth Spirit walked forward and said in a deep voice. Now that master didn’t have much time, everything must be done with expediency, they didn’t have time to care about being polite or anything else!
“How much money you want, just say it.” Fire Spirit said, looking at her.
“That’s right, whatever Miss Cheng wants, as long as we have, as long as we can do it, we will definitely honor it.” Wood Spirit added.
“Hey, hey, hey, do you think you guys are this world’s rulers? Really think you can fulfill a person’s any wish? Really too naive right?” Cheng Yan-Luo scoffed and shook her head. “Don’t treat this lady as a three year old child. This lady doesn’t need anything. If we who practice medicine do it for the money, then we won’t be living here! In any case, my words have been put out here, this poison I can’t solve! You guys should go and find someone more qualified than me!”
“You——” Fire Spirit was so angered that he couldn’t say what he wanted. It was rare to see someone so firm even with them encircling that person. Moreover, this person was a female.
Chu Qing-Yan walked out from the middle of everyone. She took a deep glance at Cheng Yan-Luo, then lifted her hand to stop them. “Fire Spirit, put down your weapon.”
Fire Spirit gave a cold snort and put away his weapon, he then retreated behind her.
Cheng Yan-Luo slanted her a glance. “Now you guys won’t stop me, right?”
Chu Qing-Yan shook her head. Seeing this, Cheng Yan-Luo turned and was about to walk away.
“Older Sister Yan-Luo.”
Chu Qing-Yan suddenly said this, and Cheng Yan-Luo’s footsteps halted. Only that she didn’t turn her head back.
“We will wait for you outside. Wait for the time when you change your mind before we enter again. I believe that the person that warned me of the dangers at night in the alley, that a child shouldn’t run around all over the place at night, that person won’t have a heart of stone and won’t save someone when she sees them dying. She had the heart of a parent that a doctor should have.” Finished speaking, she ordered Fire Spirit and the others to withdraw from the medical center.
Cheng Yan-Luo’s body stiffened, don’t know how long she stood there for, before she finally turned her body around.
“The people already left, Senior Sister doesn’t need to look.” Sha Feng looked at her expression of being thwarted, and blurted this out.
“Third Junior Brother, do you also think that what I did was too heartless?” Cheng Yan-Luo looked at the sky that was still slightly dark, her tone sounded as if she was at a loss.
“Senior Sister, I never really understood, at that time when Senor Brother left, what really happened? Also, what does it have to do with that Prince Ying?” Sha Feng looked at her and asked very earnestly.
He still remembered six years ago after Senior Brother left, Senior Sister locked herself in her room for three days and three nights. Master and all the other disciples were extremely worried, but when that door was opened and Senior Sister once again walked out, he discovered that the Senior Sister who was always smiling had disappeared. Her appearance had become more determined and righteous than before, as well as an indifference to the world. As if there was nothing important in her eyes anymore, treating everything with indifference.
Only that she ordered everyone under master’s roof to never mention Senior Brother’s name. If Senior Brother was to reappear, they must drive him away.
After so many years, master wasn’t here and Senior Sister alone propped up the master’s entire sect, living through many hardships. But she had never complained. Normally she still teased them to be happy, but he knew Senior Sister had never really been happy.
Maybe from the moment Senior Brother left, that Senior sister whose smiles reached the depth of her eyes had also disappeared.
When Sha Feng mentioned this matter, Cheng Yan-Luo recalled that day, those days and night that passed with tears washing her face. Recalling the silent answer back then, the sorrow in her heart surged up once again. “Don’t ask again, the things that happened back then really aren’t worth mentioning. I’m tired today you guys are in charge of opening the medical center!”
Watching that seemingly strong but frail person leave, Sha Feng sighed. In fact Senior Sister, you are afraid of facing those people, so you choose to escape!
“Third brother, those people are at the door and won’t leave. Would they affect opening of the medical center tomorrow?” The young medical apprentice raised his head to ask.
“Let them be.” Sha Feng waved his hand.
“Yes.” The little medical apprentice obediently nodded.
Chu Qing-Yan arranged Xiao Xu to be put into the carriage. Now Fire Spirit and the others came over and said with anxious expressions. “Little Consort, what are we to do now? Those people don’t want to provide critical care for master, now there isn’t much time left.”
“Now the only way is to wait.” Chu Qing-Yan took a glance at the medical center’s tightly closed door. Her heart also wasn’t certain, now she could only bet on Cheng Yan-Luo’s benevolent heart.
Air Spirit had once said that she had an resolute and upright character. Once you used force to compel her, it will result in the opposite effect.
Then there really won’t be anyone who will be able to solve this poison!
Everyone heard what was said and also felt there was no other alternative.
“Why couldn’t Air Spirit find someone else to provoke instead of provoking such a shrew!” Fire Spirit felt that if Air Spirit was in front of him, he would definitely have beaten him up.
“You guys should stop blaming Air Spirit. He must also have his own secret troubles. Maybe he isn’t the cause of this. We also couldn’t find others to treat his Highness.” Chu Qing-Yan placated everyone.
“Yes.” Fire Spirit’s head hung down depressingly. He really didn’t blame Air Spirit, only that there was a stifled breath that made him feel panicky.
And at this time, Chu Qing-Yan’s gaze once again turned to the person inside the carriage. Both of her eyes were aghast. Earth Spirit and the others immediately looked over, becoming aghast also.
Right now half of Xiao Xu’s lips were purple black, the other half was white colored.
Air Spirit had mentioned before that once this kind of situation appeared, it meant that the efficiency of the Snow Lotus was slowly disappearing. When all the white color would be forced out and his whole lips become blackish purple thenthe Snake Kiss poison would have flared up. In less than eight minutes the person poisoned would bleed out from the seven apertures on his head and be in so much pain that he would want to die. He would die most miserably.
“Only two hours left.” Wood Spirit said in alarm.
Everyone sunk into a terrifying, silent atmosphere.
Chu Qing-Yan bit her lips, wide sleeves covering the body, she couldn’t stop her trembling. Her hand extended out to grip Xiao Xu’s hand, torn with grief but she resisted the panic in her heart. Big Block of Ice, you must hold on!
Thanks for the chapter ❤

It’s a shame they don’t have the Hippocratic Oath A’s a concept yet.
Thanks for the chapter.
Thank you !
Thank you!
what kind of doctor just refuse a patient when they’re at the death door like this. i don’t care what her misunderstanding is, but how can she claimed to be a doctor and then just watches someone die to leisurely when she has the ability to help. what a fucking bitch, screw her self righteousness. she doesn’t deserve to be a doctor, letting her heart waver and making judgemental calls at the cost of someone else’s life.
