NFBE Chapter 88 The Ouyang Family
Chapter 88 The Ouyang Family
"Ouyang Feng!!"
Ouyang Xiu rebuked him in a deep voice. He couldn't believe that his most beloved nephew actually wanted to put him to death!
If the divine historian were to find out that Ouyang Yi had transformed into a demon, Ouyang Feng would never know the consequences.
But he actually spouted nonsense in front of the divine historian.
"Second, second uncle..."
Ouyang Xiu's reprimand brought Ouyang Feng back to his senses belatedly.
It's over, it's over!
Now that he's been exposed, he has no choice at all!
After hesitating for a few seconds, Ouyang Feng seemed to have made up his mind and knelt down before the Divine Historian: "I can testify that the Ouyang family head harbored a demon! I don't know what he fed this demon to temporarily suppress its demonic nature, but—how brutal the demon is is common knowledge. Divine Historian, it's better to kill a thousand innocent people than let one guilty person go free! And the Ouyang family is harboring a demon, showing no regard for the lives of the people of Longdu."
"Shut up!"
The head of the Ouyang family struck Ouyang Xiu with a palm.
"Do you...do you know what you're saying?" Ouyang Xiu said these words with utter despair.
Ouyang Feng's father died early, and Ouyang Feng grew up by his side. Although he was his nephew, he always treated Ouyang Feng as his own son.
Even when treating her own son, Ouyang Chen, she wasn't this kind of good.
But Ouyang Feng actually wanted his life?
Ouyang Feng's eyes sharpened: "My Lord, everything I have said is true."
Puff-!
A cold aura swept over him, and Ouyang Feng felt a sharp pain in his neck.
Immediately afterwards, his head fell off his neck.
"Falsely reporting demons deserves to die."
The divine historian coldly uttered a sentence.
Subsequently.
He looked at Jun Liuyue behind Yin Ming.
In an instant.
The moment when their eyes met.
Liu Yue felt that those eyes were incredibly familiar.
But when she looked over again...
The divine historian had already looked away, and a deep voice came from beneath his cloak, "I apologize for disturbing you."
Then, he activated the formation and disappeared into the blood-soaked courtyard.
Watching the disappearing figure of the god, Liuyue felt a void in her heart.
But she had clearly never seen this person before, not even his face.
"Yi, Yi'er, how are you feeling?"
After the divine historian left.
Ouyang Xiu couldn't wait to walk up to Ouyang Yi.
Reach out.
They shrank back again.
I'm afraid it's all a dream, and that it will shatter at the slightest touch.
"Thank you so much, Miss Jun, cough cough cough."
Upon hearing this, the head of the Ouyang family immediately helped Ouyang Yi up.
Following the sound, I looked toward Jun Liuyue.
He glanced again at Ouyang Chen, who was covered in injuries.
Ouyang Chen: "Miss Jun is the miracle doctor I invited. I've already told you, but you just won't believe me..."
“Miss Jun, I… don’t know how to thank you. How about I kowtow to you?” Ouyang Xiu was in tears and was about to kneel down to Liu Yue.
"There's no need for that!" Liu Yue hadn't expected Ouyang Xiu to suddenly pull such a stunt.
The spiritual energy blocked Ouyang Xiu's next move.
If it weren't for Jun Liuyue, and if the divine historian had discovered this just now, the entire Ouyang family would have ceased to exist.
Liu Yue not only saved Ouyang Yi, but also the entire Ouyang family.
He had known for a long time that Ouyang Yi had the characteristics of a demon and had been using drugs to suppress it. However, the demon's nature was too intense. At first, he could suppress it, but later... even taking three times the dosage was of no use.
But Jun Liuyue was able to restore Ouyang Yi to normal with just a few words, something even the top doctors in Longdu couldn't do!
"My intervention to save the young master was not without purpose," Liu Yue said.
"Please ask, young lady. Even if I, Ouyang Xiu, don't have it, I will find a way to get it!" Ouyang Xiu assured her.
"The Soul-Guiding Lamp".
"The Soul-Guiding Lamp?" Ouyang Xiu's expression changed slightly, and he said in a low voice, "Why do so many people want this?"
"Besides me, who else wants the Soul-Guiding Lamp?" Liu Yue asked in confusion.
"To be honest, young master Xiahou also expressed his desire for this item."
Ouyang Xiu sighed, "At that time, Yi'er already had the characteristics of a demon, so I dared not let the Xiahou family see Yi'er."
He paused, looked at Liu Yue, and said, "Miss, have you ever heard of the Ghost Doctor of Tianyan? The one who refined the Spirit Gathering Elixir?"
"Oh?" Liu Yue curled her lips into a smile.
Ouyang Xiu continued, "The Ghost Doctor has been won over by the Xiahou family. I've heard that this Ghost Doctor's medical skills are extraordinary."
When Ouyang Xiu heard the name of the Ghost Doctor, he was indeed tempted and wanted the Ghost Doctor to treat him.
But thinking of Ouyang Yi's appearance, he had to give up the idea.
"Tianyan's Ghost Doctor?" Liu Yue curled her lips, her smile bright beneath the mask. "We're very familiar, extremely familiar."
“You are also…” Ouyang Xiu hesitated, after all, a master does not want outsiders to know her background.
"The soul-guiding lamp is fine. Please wait a moment, young lady. I will send someone to fetch it right away."
The soul-guiding lamp was of no use to Ouyang Xiu.
A mere lamp could save her son's life; it was absolutely worth it!
"Thank you for your trouble." Liu Yue nodded slightly.
At Ouyang Xiu's warm invitation, Liuyue stayed at Ouyang's residence for one night.
Although the demonic poison in Ouyang Yi's body had been cleared, he was very weak and soon fell into a deep sleep.
After Liu Yue left with her attendants, Ouyang Xiu looked at the disheveled Ouyang Chen.
"You brat, how did you get hurt like this?"
Ouyang Xiu frowned. "He doesn't act like a young master of the Ouyang family at all!"
"Dad, didn't you kick me like that?" Ouyang Chen rubbed his red nose. "Ouch."
He clutched his stomach: "My stomach hurts so much, it feels like my internal organs are ruptured, it hurts so much, Dad, am I going to die...?"
"You brat!" Ouyang Xiu thought Ouyang Chen was faking it.
But Ouyang Chen curled up in a ball on the ground.
It doesn't seem like he's faking it.
Ouyang Xiu panicked and immediately ordered someone to fetch a physician.
"Haha, I thought your heart was made of iron." Ouyang Chen scrambled to his feet. "It's okay, I'm used to it. I can take a beating."
Ouyang Chen patted his bottom and ran away before Ouyang Xiu could get angry.
"You—!" Watching Ouyang Chen disappear in a flash, Ouyang Xiu felt both helpless and a little guilty.
Over the years, he has been too harsh on this son.
Ever since Ouyang Yi was poisoned by the demon, he has become a creature that is neither human nor ghost.
He blamed all the mistakes on Ouyang Chen, but now that I think about it, Ouyang Chen was only sixteen years old back then.
-
The upgraded version of the Spirit Gathering Elixir released by the Alchemist Association has caused a huge uproar.
Elder Xuanfeng searched the entire West City.
They couldn't find that girl either.
But the news spread like wildfire, and everyone knew that the Spirit Gathering Elixir came from the Xiahou family.
But now that a bottle of even more potent Spirit Gathering Elixir has appeared, everyone immediately thought of... the Xiahou family.
"Master, I heard that the girl from the Xiahou family who concocted the Spirit Gathering Elixir is known in the martial arts world as the Ghost Doctor. Could she be that girl?"
Upon hearing this, Elder Xuanfeng seemed to have found a new approach.
"Come with me to the Xiahou residence."
Elder Xuanfeng said excitedly.
They immediately went to the Xiahou residence.
The news of Elder Xuanfeng's arrival caused quite a stir.
In a secluded courtyard, the interior of the house is luxuriously decorated, and even the decorative wind chimes are made of luminous pearls.
"Miss, you are so beautiful," the maid said flatteringly.
"Really?" The woman looked at herself in the mirror, noticing a scar on her neck that resembled a centipede.
She raised her hand and slapped the maid hard across the face: "Are you mocking me?"
"This servant wouldn't dare, this servant wouldn't dare," the maid knelt down in fear.
"Get out!"
The woman said coldly.
The maids dared not linger. Everyone in the Xiahou mansion knew that this young lady had a violent temper. In just one month, all the maids who served her were beaten half to death.
