Heretic Doctor Useless Consort-Chapter 31

Chapter 31

“Beloved Official Bai, what do you think the Crown Prince is trying to do? He clearly likes that young lady, and yet he’s still acting all high and mighty. He even needs me to urge him to leave.” Seeing that he had finally left, Rong Feng complained to Senior Grand Secretary Bai with a helpless expression.

“Ahem! It is probably because he’s embarrassed.”

“I don’t think so. It’s just that he’s accustomed to being difficult. He’s most likely thinking that the young lady will come chasing after him,” Rong Feng assessed instead. The more he spoke, the more frequently he nodded his head in surety.

Rong Mo, who had excellent hearing, had a dark expression on his face. It was so dark that when he saw Ye Qianli, it did not turn ‘white’ again. Ye Qianli—who had originally wanted to settle her scores with him—suddenly became timid.

“Rong Mo! You came at the right time. Teacher has something to do and has to leave Vermilion Bird City first. As her senior, remember to bring Qianli with you to report to school after a month.” Because his back was facing Rong Mo, Feng Lihuan only sensed that the latter was here. He did not notice that Rong Mo was in a bad mood so he happily entrusted a task to him.

“Ahem, that… No need, no need! Teacher, give me a map. I can go by myself.” However, Ye Qianli felt guilty and thought that it would be better for her to walk by herself so as to avoid giving herself away.

“I’ll take you,” Rong Mo said though.

“No need, no need. There’s really no need. Besides, I still want to go to the border to see my grandfather and then report to the academy,” Ye Qianli rejected.

“You don’t have the time unless you don’t enter the school,” Rong Mo said as he glanced at her.

“Uh…” Of course, Ye Qianli knew that there was not enough time. However, she was just making up an excuse. It meant that she did not want to report with him. Did he not understand?

“Then, you go together. You can still take care of each other along the way.” Feng Lihuan made the final decision without knowing the inside story.

Hearing this, Ye Qianli could only brace herself to say directly, “Teacher, actually, I don’t want to follow him on the entire journey.”

Feng Lihuan: “…” This was something that he had never expected. He had thought that this new student of his had a good relationship with Rong Mo, but it seemed like that was not the case now.

“Then, Teacher Feng can bring her along himself.” Contrary to expectations, Rong Mo’s expression was calm, but after he finished speaking, he turned around and left without stopping.

“This…” Feng Lihuan wanted to stop him. After all, he really had something on after this!

“Teacher, I can do it myself!” However, Ye Qianli had her own plans and hurriedly stopped him. She did not want to cause trouble for herself.

“Forget it, I’ll return to fetch you when the time comes.” Feng Lihuan didn’t think that this precious female student in front of him could go to the Gifted Academy by herself.

It wasn’t that he looked down on her abilities, but that the location of the Gift Academy was rather special. It was just that he couldn’t explain it clearly with just a few words.

Ye Qianli was unable to dissuade Feng Lihuan so, in the end, she could only follow the latter’s wishes. She made an agreement that, no matter what she wanted to do, she would return to Vermilion Bird City after a month and then head to the Gifted Academy together.

…

The itinerary was set, but Ye Qianli did not know where she was going in the following month. There was not enough time to go to the north, and she had no idea where else to go.

“Sigh…” Walking alone on the big empty streets of the city, Ye Qianli felt an inexplicable sort of sadness. Suddenly, she missed that cheap grandfather of hers even more—who treated her rather well in her memories.

Although he was not her biological grandfather—in terms of relationships, he was probably the only person she knew in this unfamiliar world.

At the same time, she somewhat missed her friends from that lifetime. Although she was an orphan, she had been traveling all over the country to practice medicine for many years so she still had many friends.

“Alice will probably cry bitterly for three days and three nights because of my departure. Lin Fangfang will probably be heartless and finish all the dumplings in my fridge. I don’t know if Jon is safe in the Iraqi war zone…” The more Ye Qianli thought about it, the more she missed those familiar faces.

This was probably because she wanted to share her joy today with someone, but she couldn’t find anyone to share it with. This feeling was inexplicably a little bleak.

“What are you doing?”

The words from the magic box entered Ye Qianli’s mind at this moment.

Ye Qianli was stunned for a moment before she snorted with bared teeth. Then, she laughed out loud. Hearing that, the magic box couldn’t help but say again,

“You aren’t really a fool, are you?”

“Hahaha…” Ye Qianli was not angry this time though. She was thinking that this strange magic box was actually her friend! She was not alone.

“Magic box, do you think I was cool today?”

“It’s all right.”

“Magic box, did I fight well?”

“It’s all right.”

“Magic box, it’s not excessive for me to treat my parents like this, right?”

“Of course! You’re just straightforward with your words and didn’t do anything.”

Instead, the magic box felt that Ye Qianli had already treated her parents well enough. She didn’t even kill that brainless mother of hers with a slap. It could be considered that she had pretty strong patience.

However, the person was her mother after all. As her daughter, she couldn’t really kill her mother so she was already letting her off too easily… If it were someone else or a deranged daughter, they would probably die a few times.

“I quite miss my grandfather. If he were here, I would probably have a home.”

Ye Qianli communicated with the magic box in her mind. She subconsciously stopped in her tracks and looked towards the north.

North…

In the distant north, there was a grandpa who might give her a home. What was he doing now? She wondered if he was still the same after so many years apart.

She didn’t have a home in her previous life, and as of now, she didn’t have one in this life either. Would she have one in the future?

Grandpa.

“!”

Ye Qianli was reminiscing about that formidable old man when her pupils shrank as she saw a white arrow shoot in from outside the city.

Woo—! Woo—!

It had an ear-piercing and unpleasant sound! When people heard it, they only felt that it was particularly sharp and annoying. Moreover, at this moment, it was like a muffled thunder that suddenly exploded in the sky above Vermilion Bird City. It shocked the entire city into tremors, and at the same time…!

Swish!

Swish! Swish!

The white arrow that Ye Qianli had seen earlier had clearly gathered countless little companions and was currently descending on the entire Vermilion Bird City as they covered the entire sky!

The speed was fast, the momentum was fierce—in the blink of an eye, they had fallen! In the area where they had fallen, the buildings had collapsed into ashes, and huge holes had appeared in the road. What was even more terrifying was…

“Ji-ji…!”

Countless small white unidentified objects were exploding in all directions following the fall of the arrows. One of them had already scuttled in front of Ye Qianli.

Xu!

Ye Qianli instinctively lit a fire. That thing disappeared in response to the fire, and the smell of burnt flesh immediately spread in the air.

“Ji!”

The few unidentified objects that were about to charge towards Ye Qianli as well froze one after another when they saw this. Then, as if they had a mind of their own, they were frightened into fleeing in all directions.

Xu!

However, Ye Qianli did not let them escape. She quickly scattered a string of flames and burned all of these things to death at the same time. However, she did not burn them to ashes like before and only ‘roasted’ them.

“It really looks like a rat.” Ye Qianli squatted down and looked at that small, well-cooked corpse. In addition, she took out a dagger and quickly dissected one of the corpses.

At the same time, more and more arrows were being shot in, and more and more white ‘mice’ were brought in. Ye Qianli grabbed a few live ones to dissect again.

“Enemy attack! Enemy attack—”

Rumble!

Da! Da-da—

At this time, the Vermilion Bird City had also entered the most pressing combat state. The sound of countless troops being deployed rose and fell. Among them, there was a series of especially urgent sounds of horses galloping rapidly towards Ye Qianli’s position.

Swish!

At the same time, a huge white arrow also fell rapidly from the top of Ye Qianli’s head, heading straight for her!
