“Hall Master Lin, I’m truly sorry, but with my current abilities, I can’t cure Hall Master Wen.”

Although she was eager to return, she spoke the truth.

Hall Master Wen’s condition was complex, and with her previous cultivation level in her past life, she would have had a hundred percent chance of curing him. However, at this moment, her chances were less than ten percent.

Hall Master Lin grasped her intent and spoke with resolve, “Mr. Jun, there’s no need for you to blame yourself. Hall Master Wen’s illness is truly challenging to cure; otherwise, it wouldn’t have persisted for so long. You can return when you believe your skills are up to the task.”

Saying this, Hall Master Lin handed a token to Gu Qingluan.

The token resembled the one given to her by Fourth Master Tang, but this one had the character ” (Shen) engraved on it.

“Fourth Master Tang is frequently away, and there’s a chance you won’t locate him if you seek him out. However, if you ever need to treat Hall Master Wen, you can come straight to me.”

Gu Qingluan casually accepted the token, “Alright.”

The two of them descended the mountain.

Gu Qingluan secretly used the Communication Jade Technique to contact Feng Tianlan.

Coincidentally, Feng Tianlan was also at the foot of the mountain.

Therefore, Gu Qingluan devised a pretext to divert Hall Master Lin’s attention, allowing Feng Tianlan to materialize, and Gu Qingluan promptly ushered him into the Stellar Space.

She then continued walking with Hall Master Lin towards the outer area.

Hall Master Lin personally escorted her to the entrance of the Shadow Tower.

Several horses rushed over and stopped at the entrance.

Fourth Master Tang took the lead on his horse. When he saw Gu Qingluan, his eyes lit up. However, he quickly noticed Hall Master Lin standing beside her, and his gaze darkened slightly.

He turned his gaze away and looked at Gu Qingluan, greeting her with a smile, “Mr. Jun, what brings you here?”

Gu Qingluan replied, “I originally wanted to check on the condition of the patient you mentioned. But since you weren’t here, Hall Master Lin escorted me there.”

She was straightforward.

In a few words, she explained the situation.

Fourth Master Tang’s face darkened slightly, and he looked at Hall Master Lin with cold eyes, “Hall Master Lin, don’t go too far!”

Hall Master Lin smiled calmly, “Too far? Where have I gone too far?”

Fourth Master Tang was about to speak but caught sight of Gu Qingluan and decided to hold back his questioning words.

He asked Gu Qingluan, “What’s the diagnosis?”

Gu Qingluan replied, “I’m sorry, but I can’t save him right now.”

Upon hearing this answer, Fourth Master Tang felt a slight sense of relief.

Although he wanted the patient to wake up, he also had a selfish motive. He hoped that the physician who could save him would be someone he recommended.

Wasn’t that the case with Hall Master Lin?

Otherwise, he wouldn’t resort to such desperate measures.

Fourth Master Tang suppressed his irritable emotions and exchanged a few words with Gu Qingluan.

Sensing Gu Qingluan’s urgency, he had keen insight and wisely changed the topic at the right moment.

Once Gu Qingluan departed, the warmth on his face faded entirely. He fixed a stern gaze upon Hall Master Lin and spoke firmly, “Lin Shenming, Mr. Jun is here at my invitation. If 1 discover your interference again in the future, don’t expect me to be courteous!”

Hall Master Lin responded with a casual smile, “We, the ten Hall A^asters, have always adhered to the principle of every man for himself. If you can’t retain someone, that’s your issue. As for not showing courtesy to me… You don’t appear to be acting very politely at the moment. Indeed, empty vessels make the most noise.”

Fourth Master Tang’s face became even uglier upon hearing this.

Hall Master Lin had attempted to steal his credit. Still, he had the boldness to display arrogance. Did he believe that his seniority entitled him to act without restraint?

Gu Qingluan, unaware of the tension at the entrance of the Shadow Tower after her departure, returned to the inn she had booked earlier. She entered her room, set up a defensive barrier, and then stepped into the Stellar Space.

“How are Xiaonan and Yuanxi doing?”
