CHAPTER 390: CHAPTER 252: CLASH OF THE TITANS

Yun Cangxue visibly heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing the situation.

However, Xia Wenxu felt that something was very wrong.

"Dad, you guys chat first. Xuexue will go down to take care of the birthday banquet," Yun Cangxue paid respects to Xia Wenxu and then went down with the maid.

Xia Wenxu watched Yun Cangxue’s retreating figure, not missing the guilt in her eyes as she left.

"Old General, how have you been feeling lately?" Xia Wenxu withdrew his gaze and asked casually.

"Still robust. It’s a pity that Lord Fate is skilled in magic, otherwise we could have a good fight," Yun Bahe laughed heartily.

Xia Wenxu chatted idly for a while, then left the Yun Residence with Yu Ji and Yu Mo.

As he walked out of the Yun Residence, Xia Wenxu grew silent.

"Junior Fate, should we head straight back to the mansion?" the brothers Yu Ji climbed into the carriage.

"Let’s go back," Xia Wenxu’s mind endlessly replayed Yun Cangxue’s actions from earlier.

After the carriage traveled a short distance, Xia Wenxu suddenly called a halt, "Let’s not rush back. Go to Little Ci’en Hall."

Yu Ji and Yu Mo, noticing the unusual demeanor of Si Ming today, did not dare to ask more and stopped the carriage in front of Little Ci’en Hall’s entrance.

But upon entering the Medicine Hall, he did not find Yun Sheng.

"Are you... Si Ming?" Lin Yao’er, seeing several unfamiliar guests suddenly arrive in the Medicine Hall, and leading them a remarkably handsome man.

"You can call me Ji Mo," Xia Wenxu nodded.

Ji Mo?

Yu Ji and Yu Mo both looked shocked. After all, the surname Ji hadn’t been mentioned by Si Ming for many years.

That was his maternal surname, and since being sent to the Magic Temple as a child, Si Ming had never spoken of his origins to outsiders.

Yu Ji and Yu Mo only knew by coincidence that Ji Mo was Si Ming’s real name.

However, why would Si Ming reveal such a secret matter about himself to the people of this unremarkable small Medicine Hall?

"You’re here to see Divine Doctor Yun, right? She’s not here, she should be at Wuxuan Wuji Hall," Lin Yao’er was clearly uncomfortable with Ji Mo’s true appearance, and she still preferred the ordinary face Ji Mo used to have.

Not here... Xia Wenxu’s eyes darkened slightly, his face showing a clear look of disappointment.

Yu Ji and Yu Mo were even more shocked.

No way, was that their always expressionless Lord Fate?

Seeing such a heavenly-looking handsome man displaying a look of disappointment, Lin Yao’er immediately felt a sense of guilt, and was just about to say something when another voice came from behind her.

"Miss Yaoyao, please fetch me some Hemostatic Agent," Ye Beiming stood at the entrance of the Medicine Hall, also looking for Yun Sheng, but he happened to bump into Xia Wenxu.

"Prince, if you need medicine, why not directly get it from Divine Doctor Yun?" Lin Yao’er looked back and forth between Ye Beiming and Xia Wenxu.

She felt overwhelmed and hardly able to cope.

In one day, she had encountered two incredibly handsome men, each magnificent in their own right, and both were here for Divine Doctor Yun.

"Haha, as you know, the prices Little Wildcat charges me are always particularly ’fair’," Ye Beiming smiled faintly, his phoenix eyes carrying a hint of teasing.

Why is Xia Wenxu here? Is he also here looking for Little Wildcat?

In Xia Wenxu’s heart, there are also a fair number of questions, why would the Beiming King need to come personally to buy medicine?

Two equally handsome and capable men exchanged glances, their eyes sparking like flint and steel.

Yu Ji and Yu Mo, the brothers, also sensed an unusual scent coming from Lord Fate, a feeling that seemed like hostility!

Lord Fate has feelings of hostility towards people?

More precisely, the Lord Fate they knew disdained showing too much emotion towards anyone.

"Prince, here is your medicine." Lin Yao’er saw the two tall men standing at the entrance of the medicine hall, neither willing to leave, and felt anxious inside.

Ye Beiming’s face remained calm as he took the medicine, completely unflustered.

Lin Yao’er could only turn to ask Xia Wenxu helplessly: "Lord Fate, if you have an urgent matter, I can pass on a message for you."

"It’s no trouble, I’ll wait for her return," Xia Wenxu said lightly.

"Divine Doctor Yun might not return to the medicine hall for the next few days," Lin Yao’er couldn’t very well say that Yun Sheng, to avoid another encounter with Uncle Yun, had simply decided to hide in Wuxuan Wuji Hall and not come out.

"Lord Fate, if you don’t mind, I can pass on a message for you. I live with Little Wildcat in the Martial Arts Hall. You know, with your status, it’s not convenient for you to come and go from the Martial Arts Hall," Ye Beiming emphasized the word "together" especially strongly.

Xia Wenxu’s eyebrows slightly raised, a trace of displeasure flashed through his handsome eyes.

He originally wanted to leave i swiping his sleeves, but upon thinking of Yun Bahe’s matter, he still patiently restrained himself.

If Yun Sheng wouldn’t return to the medicine hall for a few days, he wouldn’t be able to meet her casually.

If his guess was not wrong, something might happen at Yun Bahe’s birthday banquet in a few days.

"Tell her, if possible, she must attend General Yun’s birthday banquet this time," Xia Wenxu suspected that Yun Bahe’s impending disaster of bloodshed might be related to Yun Cangxue.

However, he could not reveal the Heavenly Secret. For now, all he could do was give Yun Sheng some hints, hoping she would go to Yun Residence earlier, where maybe her medical skills could uncover something amiss.

Ye Beiming also knew about Yun Bahe’s birthday feast, but based on his understanding of Little Wildcat, knowing her stubborn nature similar to Yun Bahe, she definitely would not go to wish him in person.

"I will pass on the message, but whether Little Wildcat goes or not, that’s her own business." In reality, what Ye Beiming wanted to say was if Xia Wenxu was also going, he would definitely not allow Little Wildcat to go.

"Thank you, Prince Beiming," Xia Wenxu nodded and turned to leave.

"Wait a moment, Lord Fate, I heard that the magicians of Magic Temple are historically without passion or desire, then why are you concerned about matters at Yun Residence?" Ye Beiming asked from behind.

Xia Wenxu did not say a word and simply walked away.

Ye Beiming stayed in the medicine hall for a moment before returning to Wuxuan Wuji Hall.

Yun Sheng was in the Medicine Hall, seating on the floor with Huang Que, with seven or eight musical instruments laid out in front of them, accompanied by seven or eight musicians.

"Master, are you sure you want to learn these instruments?" Huang Que had just finished a trial in the Outer Hall this morning and was mysteriously dragged here by Yun Sheng.

Upon asking, it turned out Yun Sheng intended to learn musical instruments, specifically, she wanted to learn these instruments to then study the first three Chapters of Emperor’s Song.

"I need to learn. We might not excel in all Four Arts, but at least I should master one instrument. It would show your mistress is educated and knowledgeable," Yun Sheng affirmed confidently.

Huang Que was speechless; she had never seen a lady who was "educated and knowledgeable" quite like her master.

She definitely won’t tell Huang Que that her reason for learning the instruments was solely because she had experienced the effects of Yuan Bupo’s Emperor’s Song.
