The Marriage of an Esteemed Supreme Healer, a Noble Ruler



Just like that, everything quietly returned to calm as if nothing had happened.

He furrowed his brows and subconsciously glanced at Xiao Ba. He wanted to ask something, but he didn't know how to say it.

Ask what? Ask if the commotion just now was related to Xiao Ba? And the sudden appearance of this barrier…

Jian Fengchi shook his head and dismissed that ridiculous thought. Shu Jing said it herself. This barrier was already here, so how could it have anything to do with Xiao Ba?

At this moment, Xiao Ba had already arrived in front of the barrier.

When she was ten steps away from the barrier, it suddenly dissipated.

Xiao Ba waved at Jian Fengchi. "What are you waiting for? Let's go."

Jian Fengchi was stunned and followed her. It's probably a coincidence. After all, when we came, this barrier had inexplicably disappeared…

"Xiao Ba, why do you think that barrier isn't controlled by the Eighth Deity? Isn't this her territory?"

Xiao Ba smiled. "How would I know?"

…

Shu Jing rushed back to Fantasy Divine Hall.

She wanted to look for the First Deity, but halfway through, she remembered that she had asked to see him a few times before yet had been rejected without exception. If she went again this time, the outcome would probably be the same.

Shu Jing gritted her teeth and changed direction, walking toward the Second Deity's residence.

She had just arrived at the door, and before she could knock, she bumped into Yu Qian—who was walking over from the other side.

From the looks of it, he had just returned.

"Second Deity." Seeing Yu Qian, Shu Jing hurried forward. "I have something to report."

Yu Qian was depressed and wanted to ignore her, but when he heard this, he looked up at her and saw that her expression was a little off. Only then did he stop. "What's wrong?"

"I—" Shu Jing was about to speak when her eyes suddenly narrowed. She saw that there was a bloody wound on Yu Qian's hand.

It looked like he had been bitten by something.

"Second Deity, the injury on your hand…"

Yu Qian's expression darkened. "I was bitten by a beast on the legendary fiend mountain just now."

Shu Jing was shocked. "What?!"

On the legendary fiend mountain, there were hundreds of legendary fiends. They had always been taken care of by the Second Deity.

Usually, these legendary fiends were especially respectful to him. Why did they suddenly go crazy this time?

Yu Qian gritted his teeth.

Actually, he hadn't been there for a long time. He suddenly thought of this today and wanted to go over and take a look.

Unexpectedly, one of them suddenly attacked and bit him.

Although he had already killed it on the spot, the wound was still left. Furthermore, because the beast's teeth were poisonous, he had specially used medicine. Therefore, when he saw Shu Jing, his mood was at its worst.

"These beasts are really getting more and more impudent! They actually bit you?"

Shu Jing's words made Yu Qian even more frustrated. He said coldly, "Alright, it's over; there's no need to mention it again. On the other hand, you said that you had something to report. What happened?"

A look of difficulty flashed across Shu Jing's face before she said, "There seems to be something wrong with the barrier on the medicinal mountain…"

Right on the heels of that, she told Yu Qian what had happened. However, she deliberately skipped the part where Xiao Ba attacked.

ƥαṇdαsηθνε| It wasn't that she wanted to protect Xiao Ba, but as a deity, it was too embarrassing to be slapped by someone who had just arrived at Fantasy Divine Palace and didn't even have a bloodline totem.

If this was made known to the public, she would lose all her face! ραпdαs `nᴏνɐ| сom

Anyway, she had plenty of ways to get back at her.

After saying that, Yu Qian didn't speak for a long time.

Shu Jing was a little nervous. "Second Deity, you…"

"What's wrong with your face?" Yu Qian suddenly asked.

Shu Jing was shocked. Then, she suddenly realized what was going on—there was still that palm print on her face!

I had actually forgotten about this…

She had rushed over in a hurry on the way just now, her mind only filled with thoughts about the barrier. How could she remember all this?

In the end, Yu Qian saw it.

Shu Jing lowered her head in embarrassment.

Yu Qian asked, "This was done by Xiao Ba?"

Shu Jing bit the bullet and nodded.

Yu Qian suddenly laughed. "Shu Jing, you're the Eighth Deity. You were beaten up just like that? What are you doing?!"

Seeing that Yu Qian was angry, Shu Jing's heart skipped a beat. "It's all because she attacked too suddenly! I wasn't prepared for it at that moment—"

Yu Qian stared at her coldly.

The rest of Shu Jing's words suddenly got stuck in her throat.

Her face turned pale. After a long time, she finally said, "…Shu Jing is useless."

"You are indeed incompetent." Yu Qian spoke without giving Shu Jing any face. "As a deity, you were actually slapped by such a person? If word gets out, the entire Fantasy Divine Hall will be ashamed of you!"

Shu Jing lowered her head and didn't dare to speak.

"How did you deal with that Xiao Ba?"

She paused and lowered her head even more. "N-not yet… At that time, the barrier suddenly—"

"So, you were beaten up and did nothing in the end. You came back like this?"

Yu Qian had an eye-opening experience! This is simply throwing the face of deities to the ground and being trampled on nonchalantly!

Sensing his anger, Shu Jing clenched her fists tightly, but she didn't dare to say anything.

At this moment, it was useless to say anything else. It was impossible to pretend that nothing had happened.

Even if she went back and killed Xiao Ba now, she had already suffered this slap! This humiliation would never be erased.

Yu Qian took a deep breath. "But that's not the most important thing. Shu Jing, after so long, you still haven't taken down that barrier?!"

Shu Jing's face turned pale, and her legs went weak.

"In the past, you tried to control the medicinal mountain and did many cheap shots and tricks in private. I never cared much about it because in my opinion, it's not a bad thing that you're ambitious. At the very least, it can let you resolve the problem of the barrier faster and more smoothly. In the end, what happened?"

"You used public power for your own gain. Not only did you alarm the Emperor, but after so long, there's actually no progress on the barrier at all! Shu Jing, you disappoint me too much!"

After a series of accusations and reprimands, Shu Jing could barely take it.

It took her a while to find her voice. "Second Deity, that… I've already done my best about that barrier, b-but… you know how difficult it is to deal with!"

Yu Qian looked down at her with an indifferent gaze. "I naturally know this, but I've already given you tens of thousands of years. Yet, you haven't resolved it! This can no longer be summarized with just 'incompetence!'"

Shu Jing dug her nails into her palm and felt a sharp pain. However, she was almost numb at this moment and couldn't care less.

"I didn't set up that barrier in the first place. It's so difficult to control it!"
