The Healer Demands Payment!

Chapter 45

On Beyond The Heaven's highest floating island, white clouds were pouring down like a waterfall to the lake below. A man in a white robe stood still. His sleeves were blown by the wind, and his hair was tied at the top of his head by a small black sandalwood headdress.

When Su Junmo arrived in a hurry, the white-robed man had already waited here for an incense stick of time.

"Lord." Su Junmo took a deep breath, then bowing respectfully.

"How?" The white-robed man did not turn his head. His star-like pitch-black eyes were still staring at the cloud waterfall.

"Xingluo Pavilion Master promised to enter the Starfallen Sea for ten years." Su Junmo reported all the news he had heard in the past half-day.

"Oh?" The white-robed man's expression remained unchanged, "Xingluo Pavilion?"

The number one sword sect in the Eastern Realm. He naturally had heard this name before.

"Yes." Su Junmo replied." Xingluo Pavilion made that promise in exchange to host the Medical Cultivator Conference in their Xingluo City this year."

"Continue." The white-robed man still did not turn around.

Su Junmo hesitated for a moment: "This subordinate also met Meng Qi from Qingfeng Valley."

Su Junmo came to the Eastern Realm under his Lord's order to solve Sikong Yan and found Meng Qi by the way. Su Junmo was a little nervous, so he didn't notice that his Lord's hands hanging on the side stiffened when hearing Su Junmo's mentioning Meng Qi's name.

After a pause, he continued: "She seems to have knowledge about arrays. This subordinate saw the medical knife she personally made. The array carved on the knife was very similar to...." Su Junmo fell silent, dared not to say the next words. That array was very rare, even in the Demon Realm. He only saw it carved under the Demon Realm's Celestial Tree. Another one, was carved precisely on his Lord's weapon——Xizhao.

"I know." The man replied.

"This subordinate has followed Meng Qi to Fentian City. She should also be going to Xingluo City to participate in the Medical Cultivator Conference." Su Junmo continued: "She is very obsessed with medical arts. She certainly would not miss this event,"

Su Junmo hesitated for a while. He looked at his Lord's straight back, gritted his teeth, and finally said: "There is a little white tiger by Meng Qi's side. I heard it was an injured spirit beast she picked up and wanted to raise as a spirit pet. Meng Qi loves that little white tiger and treats him very well, but..."

"Ah, cough, cough...I see, don't worry about this." The white-robed man quickly interrupted Su Junmo's words. He flicked his sleeves: "Has Xue clan members arrived in Fentian City?"

"Yes." Su Junmo replied respectfully. "Xue Chengxuan came in person. His father should also depart to Xingluo City at the beginning of the month."

"Let them bring the 'Xue Clan's Record' with them." The man ordered. "Go to Fentian City's Beyond The Heaven. I will give you command to mobilize the third secret team. If necessary, use them to assist you."

"...Yes." Su Jun Mo didn't dare to say more. He bowed and took his leave. Although many questions haunted his minds, he didn't dare to ask. The Lord clearly ordered him to find Meng Qi, but now didn't seem to care about her.

So...

Su Junmo was full of doubts. Especially when he mentioned the little white tiger. Although he didn't see the Lord's expression, he clearly felt the embarrassment from the other party, not to mention the quick change of topic.
