Chapter 793: Chapter 792: About Master’s True Identity…
Wen Xin inserted two needles into Yu Jie’s head and responded to Yu Jie’s words in a gentle tone.
She didn’t know why Yu Jie didn’t go back to see her senior brother at the time, but she didn’t blame her. People have their own choices; as long as they feel at peace, that’s enough.
Yu Jie’s headache was relieved after Wen Xin’s acupuncture, and she hung her head low, mumbling like a child who had done something wrong, “Does my master blame me?”
“No, he doesn’t. Your master told Zhuge Jingming to make sure that he does everything possible to help you whenever you have news or seek his help, so you never feel like you’re alone.”
“Just before he passed away, your senior brother said that he raised you like his own daughter and hoped that you could live well…”
All these words were mentioned casually by Zhuge Jingming later on, he even lamented that he couldn’t find his junior sister.
Wen Xin hadn’t expected her trip to Ancient Martial Town to lead her to meet Yu Jie, perhaps it was also a destined connection?
Seeing that Yu Jie’s pain had significantly reduced, Qian Cai gently exhaled, glancing at Wen Xin with a sense of disbelief as something crossed his mind.
“Wait, wait a moment. The Huo Zhiling you mentioned, isn’t he Mr. Huo Lingzhi? That old gentleman…”
“I don’t know who my master is; since I knew him, he has been called Old Huo. He never told me about his past; I really know nothing about it.”
When Wen Xin was with Old Huo, she had been focused solely on learning the medical arts to treat Tan Xingyue and never concerned herself with anything else.
Later, during the longest period her master stayed, it was still for medical treatment. At that time, she didn’t know if she would survive, let alone have time to concern herself with her master’s affairs.
Wen Xin glanced at the time, walked over to Yu Jie, and removed the acupuncture needles from Yu Jie’s head, looking at her lightly and said, “My master’s affairs, she probably knows more than I do.”
“I don’t know about Grandmaster’s affairs either; although I grew up close to my master, he never spoke about the Grandmaster and we rarely saw him, so I’m not clear about it either.”
Yu Jie gently patted her now much more comfortable head, turning to look at Qian Cai, unable to understand why he thought her Grandmaster was from the ancient martial arts family.
“Why do you think my Grandmaster’s surname is Qian?”
“It’s nothing…” Qian Cai somewhat avoided Yu Jie’s gaze. Just then, he seemed to think of a way to change the subject and turned to Wen Xin.
“Little princess, come with me. Let me see if you really know ancient martial arts. If you do, your body could be completely healed. Come quickly!”
Saying this, Qian Cai ran into a room to the side, and Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi, curious, followed him due to his comical actions.
As Wen Xin walked into Qian Cai’s medicine room, she saw the robot that was familiar beyond words and let out a light laugh. She hadn’t expected one of the few acupuncture robots to turn up here.
Wen Xin raised her hand and pointed at the robot not far away, her eyebrows slightly raised, donning a casual demeanor, and slowly began to speak.
“How effective is this robot? You don’t even understand acupuncture, so what are you using it for?”
Unexpectedly, Wen Xin actually knew about this acupuncture robot. Qian Cai put down what he was holding and quickly ran to the side of the robot to start introducing his acupuncture robot to Wen Xin.
Wen Xin watched as Qian Cai praised the acupuncture robot extravagantly. She just faintly smiled and somewhat perfunctorily nodded.
Having said so much, Qian Cai saw how perfunctory Wen Xin was and instantly became unhappy. He frowned and looked at Wen Xin disapprovingly.
“Little princess, what do you mean? You’re so dismissive. I know you might be great at acupuncture, but my robot isn’t bad either. Let it perform acupuncture on you later, and you’ll see how amazing it is.”
Wen Xin hadn’t expected her attitude to actually anger Qian Cai. She chuckled lightly and hurriedly apologized.
“Sorry, I was rude. When the second generation of this robot comes out, I promise I’ll give you one!”
Wen Xin spoke kindly like one would to a child to Qian Cai, and she promised him a second generation robot to appease his unexpected anger.
“Little princess, you must keep your word. I put in a lot of effort to get this robot. If the second generation comes out, you must do your utmost to help me get one. I’ll repay you generously!”
Thinking about the second generation robot, Qian Cai couldn’t help but smile. This robot was incredibly useful. If there was a second generation, it would be even more beneficial. That would be wonderful.
Wen Xin looked at Qian Cai’s excited demeanor and scoffed coldly.
“Alright, have you evaluated whether I have a foundation in ancient martial arts? Can you treat me? If not, I will have to go find Qian Ye. I still have matters to discuss with him.”
“Yes, yes, yes, little princess, please sit down on this chair.”
After Wen Xin’s reminder, Qian Cai finally got back to the main topic. He pulled a chair over for Wen Xin to sit down, took out a set of equipment, and began checking the fluctuations of Wen Xin’s internal energy.
About fifteen minutes later, Qian Cai excitedly looked at Wen Xin. As he was removing the devices from her, he excitedly told Wen Xin,
“Little princess, you indeed practice ancient martial arts. If that’s the case, then we can easily solve your illness. You only need medicinal baths and acupuncture treatment. However, I’m not skilled at acupuncture, so you can choose someone who is skilled to help you, or you can choose the acupuncture robot. Although sometimes the robot’s high programming is not very practical, having someone skilled in acupuncture would be best. I can teach them the acupuncture techniques.”
“I can help you.”
Yu Jie stood at the door, sincerely looking at Wen Xin. Her acupuncture was actually very impressive. However, since leaving her Grandmaster, she felt she had no right to use the medical arts taught to her and thus had never used acupuncture again.
“No need, your body is too weak, and performing acupuncture is very physically demanding. I can have Zhuge Jingming help me—his physique is better than yours. Take good care of your health. If you’re willing to leave Ancient Martial Town, the Green Physician Sect still needs a manager; you could go and help out.”
Wen Xin had a good guess at Yu Jie’s inner distress; she knew the knot in her heart was the feeling of having let down her Grandmaster, which kept her from moving on, causing her to become severely depressed.
She understood her pain, so she didn’t blame her, even feeling a bit heartbroken for her, having tortured herself for so long…
