Extraordinary Medical Saint in the City

Chapter 1553 - 1551: There’s Definitely Something Wrong with Blizzard Village!

"Wait a moment!"

Zhu Qilue suddenly shouted at them with a fierce voice, his eyes glaring angrily, like a malicious spirit.

"What do you mean, are you playing with me? Come and go as you please?!"

The two refugees were startled, cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, and it soaked through their clothes at the back.

"No...we don’t dare..."

"You don’t dare? I think you don’t even regard me at all! What, am I not ruthless like other young masters, so you’re not afraid? Is that why you treat me like air if I don’t act?"

The two shook their heads frantically, like rattles, unable to utter a word.

They hadn’t expected Zhu Qilue to suddenly become someone else, dauntingly ferocious, like a man-eating beast.

"Then hurry up and speak, don’t force me to act." Zhu Qilue stepped closer, staring them down with a menacing glare, lowering his voice in threat.

"..." The two exchanged a glance, showing a troubled and conflicted expression. "Young master... it’s not that we don’t want to say... but once we do... our lives will be over..."

"If you don’t speak, your lives will be over too. And very soon, it will be! If you speak, I might spare you, give you enough time to escape, maybe even survive." Zhu Qilue smiled, with a chill-inducing, spine-tingling grin.

"Ah...this...this..."

It was evident, the two were indeed deeply conflicted and troubled.

Either way, they would die, life would be lost.

The two regarded each other for a long time, yet still couldn’t come to an answer.

"Let me tell you, my patience is about at its limit. Just now saying a few kind words to you, you think it’s because I look up to you? No matter what in the end, you’re just refugees. Even if I look up to you, what’s the use? I could still easily kill you. Do you think kindness is weakness, trying to deceive me?"

"It’s really not... young master, you’ve misunderstood! Truly... we would... truly lose our lives..."

Swish!

Silver flashes swung out, splitting the air.

Zhu Qilue raised his hand, the Silver Sword perched on one refugee’s shoulder. A slight cut could take his head.

"This sword is extremely sharp, cuts through iron like mud! Even resting on your shoulder, it could immediately remove your arm. Want to try?"

The Silver Sword hung in mid-air, without touching the refugee’s body.

But Zhu Qilue spoke truth.

Just with this sword slicing through iron like mud, the refugee’s arm surely wouldn’t survive! If it touched the neck, the head would surely fall!

"No... no need... no need..."

The two refugees trembled as they spoke, scared to death, their faces pale as iron.

"So, whatever I ask, you answer, got it?"

"Got... got it..." The two watched the sword edge in terror, nodding heavily.

"Why were you in that place, what are your schemes?"

Zhu Qilue didn’t truly want to act, just intended to scare the opponents. To his surprise, they were so easily frightened, already about to soil themselves after one sentence.

The opponents exchanged a glance, prepared to speak.

"Enough!"

Lan Yunwei suddenly rose from the ground, shouting angrily at Zhu Qilue’s back.

Zhu Qilue looked back at Lan Yunwei, puzzled.

"Miss Lan, what’s wrong now?"

"Let’s go." Lan Yunwei said expressionlessly, spitting out two words.

"Go? Go where?"

"You wanted to go to Blizzard Village, if not now, then when?"

"But..."

"Urgent situation, time waits for no one. Still a distance to Blizzard Village, if you don’t hurry, you’ll only arrive in time to collect Lin Fan’s body. Moreover, you won’t care about your sister’s injuries? Carrying her will only slow you down, wasting time here, do you want your sister to die, do you want Lin Fan to die?"

Zhu Qilue furrowed his brow, his heart skipped. Lan Yunwei changed completely, tone, demeanor, movement, expression all wrong.

Damn it!

Something’s up, something’s definitely up in Blizzard Village!

The only one who could change Lan Yunwei this way, besides Lan Zhengqing, he couldn’t think of anyone else.

So.

Blizzard Village must have a huge connection with Lan Zhengqing, perhaps even those refugees are connected to him.

But exactly what kind of connection, he couldn’t guess for now.

"Why hesitating? Hurry up and go! Waiting for death?!"

While Zhu Qilue was pondering, Lan Yunwei shouted angrily again, though clearly not aimed at him, but at the refugees behind.

The refugees heard this, relieved, turned and fled in haste.

Before Zhu Qilue could react, the people had vanished into the vast snowy winds.

"Damn!"

Unable to resist, a string of curses burst from him, glaring viciously at Lan Yunwei.

Now Lan Yunwei’s actions were destroying evidence, preventing him from uncovering truth!

What exactly is she hiding?!

"Miss Lan, what you’re doing is suspicious as hell. If this matter doesn’t concern you, why rush them away?"

Facing Zhu Qilue’s accusation, Lan Yunwei remained unchanged, calm as if nothing had happened.

Suddenly!

Her lips curled slightly, a cold sneer.

"What refugees? I didn’t see any refugees. On Wenyu City’s land, how could refugees exist? Mister Zhu, you must be seeing things. It’s snowing heavily, seeing things is normal, you’ll get used to it."

"You..."

Zhu Qilue couldn’t believe Lan Yunwei would say such a thing!

Simply covering the sky with one hand, outright lies!

"I didn’t see any refugees, why don’t you ask Zhu Ruoling if she saw?" She sneered, gesturing toward Zhu Ruoling lying on the ground.

Despicable!

This woman is crazy!

Zhu Qilue’s heart screamed in rage, his cheeks twitching fiercely.

Ling’er was gravely injured, couldn’t even open her eyes, how could she see!

Clearly mocking him!

Definitely hiding something!

His face flushed with anger, fists clenched tightly, burning with fury.

But the next moment.

Zhu Qilue suddenly released his fists, his tense body relaxed.

"Fine, if Miss Lan says you didn’t see, then you didn’t see. I can’t refute you, after all, this is your territory, what can I say? But I think there are surely clues at Blizzard Village, let’s go there and investigate, maybe we’ll find traces of refugees."

As he spoke, he picked up Zhu Ruoling.

"Don’t you agree, Miss Lan?"

"..." Lan Yunwei glared at Zhu Qilue, heart filled with mixed emotions.

"Why waiting? Miss Lan, hurry up, or you won’t make it in time to see Lin Fan."

As the voice faded, Zhu Qilue spoke while floating away, his figure vanished instantly ahead.

Lan Yunwei dared not delay, hurriedly followed suit.
