I Can See Through Everything

The ox cart, escorted by numerous Silver Moon Guards, returned grandly to the Wei Mansion.

"Mother, come down."

Wei Zian stepped forward to help his mother off the cart.

The mother and son looked at the gates of the Wei Mansion, feeling as if a lifetime had passed.

Their time on the run had made them endure too much.

They had brushed against death more than once.

Now that they could return safely, it filled them with mixed emotions.

"An'er, come here."

Mrs. Wei led Wei Zian to kneel before Mago and Lu Qing.

Mrs. Wei bowed deeply, and Wei Zian kowtowed without hesitation.

"Madam, there's no need for this."

Lu Qing and Mago hurriedly stepped forward to help them up.

Wei Xinghe and the Chief Steward, who were standing nearby, were moved upon hearing this.

They began to understand that it was Lu Qing and the others who had been protecting the mother and son during this period.

"Thank you, Xiaolangjun, for saving my wife and child."

Wei Xinghe also bowed deeply to Lu Qing.

"Father, and Master, if it weren't for Master's protection in the early days, Mother and I wouldn't be here to see you now!"

Wei Zian, seeing his father only thanking Lu Qing, reminded him, fearing that his master might feel unappreciated.

"Master?" Wei Xinghe was taken aback.

"Indeed, while hiding from those evildoers in the mountains, I had An'er acknowledge Master Ma as his teacher. It was also Master Ma who stood up and led us out of the secret path from the city, allowing us to escape with our lives," Mrs. Wei nodded.

Hearing this, Wei Xinghe had no doubts and bowed to Mago, "Thank you, Master Ma, for risking your life to save us."

Mago felt overwhelmed by the Wei family's head's formal gesture and waved his hands repeatedly, "No need, no need, I was merely following the orders of the Silver Moon Guards, and didn't do much. It was the Silver Moon Guards who sacrificed their lives, giving us a chance to escape."

"Master, did Pang Guard and the others return?"

Mrs. Wei asked the question that had been on her mind.

"No," Wei Xinghe shook his head.

Mrs. Wei's expression dimmed, knowing that the squad of Silver Moon Guards was likely doomed.

"Master, An'er and I were able to return safely thanks to Pang Guard and the others. Please treat their families well," Mrs. Wei pleaded.

"Of course, this incident has taught us a lesson. Every guard and servant who remained loyal will be greatly rewarded," Wei Xinghe said solemnly.

These words were not only meant for his wife but also for all the Silver Moon Guards present.

As expected, upon hearing the head's promise, although the Silver Moon Guards' expressions remained tense, there was a hint of joy in their eyes.

"Alright, let's enter the mansion. It's not polite to keep our guests waiting outside," Wei Shanhai said.

Mrs. Wei stepped forward and held Xiao Yan's hand, "Xiao Yan, would you like to come inside with Auntie?"

Xiao Yan, already curious about the grand gates of the Wei Mansion, looked at her brother for permission. Upon receiving it, she nodded enthusiastically, "Okay~"

Lu Qing handed the ox cart's reins to a servant of the Wei Mansion, "Old man, this ox has worked hard bringing us to the county. Please take good care of it."

"Of course," the old servant replied quickly, "The feed in the mansion is the best. Please rest assured, Xiaolangjun."

Once inside the mansion, in the courtyard reserved for distinguished guests, the old doctor finally removed his hat after everyone else had left.

"Doctor Chen, it's really you!"

The Chief Steward exclaimed in surprise.

"Chief Steward, it's been a long time since we parted," the old doctor smiled.

"Master, Ancestor, this is Doctor Chen who treated the young master last time. And this is his disciple, Lu Qing..."

The Chief Steward explained to the head, who looked puzzled.

Wei Xinghe then understood the connection these two had with the mansion.

But his heart was even more shaken.

According to previous information, the old doctor was only an Internal Organs Realm martial artist, and Lu Qing was just a talented Tendons and Bones Realm youth.

But now, standing before them were a master who could make Wang Cangyi retreat and a disciple who could defeat an Internal Organs Realm grandmaster as a Tendons and Bones Realm youth.

The difference was too vast.

"It turns out to be Doctor Chen and his esteemed disciple. I owe you both a great debt," Wei Xinghe suppressed his inner turmoil and thanked them again.

"We're merely fulfilling our duties as doctors. No need to dwell on it, Master Wei," the old doctor shook his head.

After some more pleasantries, Mrs. Wei seized the opportunity to speak:

"Ancestor, Doctor Chen came to the county this time mainly to see if he can treat the sword wound in your heart. How are you feeling now?"

"How did you know about the sword wound in my heart?" Wei Shanhai was shocked.

The sword wound in his heart, even Internal Organs Realm experts couldn't see through it. Only Wei Xinghe and the Chief Steward knew about it in the mansion.

How did the old doctor and his disciple, far away in a rural mountain village, find out?

"It was Zhiyue who informed us," the old doctor explained. "Zhiyue came to Jiuli Village a few days ago, and from him, I learned about Master Wei's serious injury."

"So, it was Zhiyue secretly helping us!"

Wei Shanhai suddenly understood.

If it was that person, it made sense that he could see through his injury.

After all, those from Tianji Tower were always mysterious and possessed abilities ordinary martial artists did not have.

"Master Wei, I have some knowledge in medicine. Would you be willing to let me treat your wound?"

"Of course, of course, I would be grateful!" Wei Shanhai said joyfully.

He had been troubled by his injury.

Without removing the sword qi, he would only live for another year at most.

As a Precelestial, his theoretical lifespan was three hundred years.

Having lived just over a hundred years, he didn't want to die so soon.

However, to remove the sword qi from his heart, he needed another trustworthy Precelestial to help.

But in this remote place of Cang County, where could he find a trustworthy Precelestial in a short time?

Wei Shanhai thought he was without hope, but now he saw a glimmer of it.

He trusted the old doctor.

Not only was the old doctor a renowned and kind-hearted doctor in Cang County, but he also defended the Wei family in a critical moment by driving away Wang Cangyi.

The old doctor was serious about healing.

Seeing that Wei Shanhai agreed, he immediately proposed to treat the injury as soon as possible.

Initially, Wei Shanhai wanted to be polite, thinking it was inappropriate to ask a guest to treat his injury right after arriving without even having a meal.

But seeing the old doctor's insistence and wanting to recover quickly, he agreed.

They chose a quiet room for the treatment.

"Xiao Yan, Auntie will take you to eat something delicious, okay?"

Seeing that everyone was busy with serious matters, Mrs. Wei gently asked Xiao Yan, holding her hand.

Xiao Yan's eyes lit up and she looked at her brother.

Lu Qing, who also needed to help his master, hesitated but then nodded.

"Alright, but don't be naughty and cause trouble for Mrs. Wei."

"I won't, Xiao Yan will be good," Xiao Yan nodded earnestly.

"And take Xiao Li too."

Lu Qing took a small black figure from his bamboo basket and placed it in Xiao Yan's arms.

It was Xiao Li, who had been hiding in the basket.

Because Precelestial experts could easily see through Xiao Li's invisibility, Lu Qing had instructed Xiao Li to hide in the densely packed bamboo basket this time.

Precelestial experts, though perceptive, couldn't see through objects.

Hiding in the bamboo basket, Xiao Li was less noticeable.

"Xiao Li!"

Xiao Yan hugged Xiao Li happily.

She hadn't been able to play with Xiao Li in the past few days because it needed to stay hidden. Now seeing it again, she was overjoyed.

"Ow~" Xiao Li rubbed affectionately against Xiao Yan's face.

"What's this?"

Mrs. Wei was surprised to see Xiao Li.

Wei Zian's eyes widened.

"This is Xiao Li, Xiao Yan's companion. Mrs. Wei, please prepare some food for it too. It likes fresh fish," Lu Qing explained.

"Xiao Li..."

Mrs. Wei seemed thoughtful.

She recalled what Lu Qing had said when he went to face the strong enemy earlier.

Her view of Xiao Li changed.

If Lu Qing said such things, this black beast was clearly not as harmless as it seemed.

Mago, looking at Xiao Li in Xiao Yan's arms, was even more surprised.

He had always imagined the mysterious creature beside Lu Qing as something terrifying.

Now, seeing Xiao Li, it was hard to associate it with a creature capable of such fearsome actions.

"What a strange beast."

Wei Shanhai, watching Mrs. Wei lead Xiao Yan to the back courtyard, couldn't help but praise.

As a Precelestial, he keenly sensed Xiao Li's peculiar aura.

"It is indeed unique. Lu Qing found it in the mountains and adopted it. It's quite intelligent," the old doctor smiled.

"Your disciple is

indeed fortunate to have such a mystical beast."

They chatted as they walked and soon reached the quiet room.

As the old doctor's assistant, Lu Qing naturally stayed behind, and Wei Xinghe, as the head of the family, also wanted to help.

So, they remained in the quiet room.

"Master Wei, I need to check the extent of your heart injury."

The old doctor said, sitting cross-legged.

"Feel free to check," Wei Shanhai said calmly, retracting his defensive true qi.

The old doctor nodded slightly, placing his hand on Wei Shanhai's chest. A strand of gentle water-attributed Precelestial true qi quietly penetrated his body.

This step was extremely dangerous. With Wei Shanhai completely defenseless, if the old doctor harbored ill intentions, he could easily destroy his heart.

If it weren't for the old doctor, Wei Shanhai wouldn't dare risk his life like this.

While the old doctor diagnosed Wei Shanhai's injury, Lu Qing activated his abilities, monitoring Wei Shanhai's condition.

In his vision, faint golden light emerged from Wei Shanhai's body.

[Wei Shanhai: Wei Family Ancestor, straightforward and generous, deeply cares for his family.]

[Cultivation: Peak of Early Precelestial Stage, fire-attributed Precelestial true qi.]

[Possesses several secret techniques, especially skilled in saber techniques. Revitalized the family by comprehending the Silver Moon Formation from a treasure.]

[Used to travel with Wang Cangyi, but fell out due to personality differences and unequal distribution of treasures.]

[Ambushed by Wang Cangyi, wounded by Precelestial sword qi, severely injured heart.]

Lu Qing nodded secretly.

The robed youth had not lied; Wei Shanhai's heart injury was indeed severe.

The old doctor's diagnosis didn't take long. After a short while, he retracted his true qi.

"Doctor, can my injury be treated?" Wei Shanhai asked.

Wei Xinghe also showed concern.

The old doctor pondered for a moment and said, "The treatment is not difficult, but it will be somewhat painful. Master Wei, you must endure it."

"Haha, I've lived over a hundred years and have seen all kinds of things. I won't flinch even with a sword to my body. Please, go ahead with the treatment, no matter how painful."

Wei Shanhai laughed heartily, delighted by the news.

"In that case, I won't be polite," the old doctor said seriously, "Lu Qing, you will handle the needles. I need to use my true qi to protect Master Wei's heart and can't spare a hand. Master Wei, please remove your shirt."

"Yes, Master."

Lu Qing took out the needle pouch. Wei Shanhai removed his shirt, revealing a horrifying sword scar on his chest.

Wei Xinghe's eyes widened.

He knew his ancestor was injured but didn't realize the wound was so severe.

Seeing the sword scar, it was clear that the ancestor was on the brink of death at that time.

He couldn't imagine the pain the ancestor endured to escape from Wang Cangyi.

His hatred for Wang Cangyi and his allies deepened.

"Lu Qing, when I say, start needling."

The old doctor said, pressing his hand against Wei Shanhai's chest.

"Understood," Lu Qing replied solemnly.

"Shenmen, Neiguan, Tanzhong..."

The old doctor recited the acupoints, and Lu Qing's hands moved swiftly, inserting the silver needles accurately.

With each needle, Wei Shanhai felt the sword qi in his heart start to stir, being forced to gather and surge, making his heart feel uncomfortable.

At this moment, a gentle and cool true qi enveloped his heart, bringing a wave of comfort.

As Lu Qing inserted the last needle, the sword qi, previously fused with the heart, was forced out, gathering into a ball.

But at its most powerful, the gathered Precelestial sword qi threatened to burst his heart.

At this critical moment, the gentle true qi protecting his heart suddenly surged in, becoming highly adhesive.

It completely enveloped the Precelestial sword qi and forcefully pulled it out.

Wei Shanhai felt a sharp pain in his chest, followed by immense relief.
