I Can See Through Everything

Chapter 111

"Brother Lu Qing, why are you here?"

"I came to the mountains to gather herbs and happened to run into you," Lu Qing replied.

Since stepping into the Tendons and Bones Realm, Lu Qing received another herbal bath recipe from his master to aid in his cultivation.

So, his consumption of medicinal herbs had been significant in recent days, exhausting his master's collection.

To replenish the herbs, he brought Xiao Li into the mountains to gather more.

Unexpectedly, he stumbled upon Mago being chased.

"In that case, my luck isn't too bad," Mago sighed.

If Lu Qing hadn't come to the mountains for herbs today, he wouldn't have escaped the young man in the leather armor's pursuit.

"Master Ma, why were you being chased by that person, and who are they?" Lu Qing asked.

From his investigation, Lu Qing only knew that both men were from a sect called Tian Cang Sect.

But he wasn't sure why Mago had provoked them.

"I don't know who they are either, and as for why I was being chased, it's a long story."

Mago's face showed a complex expression as he began to recount the recent events.

"That's how I was discovered by that young man in the leather armor while searching for medicine for Lady Wei, leading to the chase into the valley where I met you."

"Master Ma, you've had quite an exciting couple of days."

After listening to Mago's story, Lu Qing looked at him oddly.

He realized Mago's luck was rather poor, and he seemed to have a bit of a conflict with Young Master Wei.

Every time they met, Mago suffered, and this time he almost got killed.

"Brother Lu Qing, please don't tease me," Mago said, sweating. "I regret walking into that forest so much now."

Lu Qing chuckled and stopped teasing.

Instead, he felt a bit of admiration for Mago.

Mago could have chosen to abandon Lady Wei and her son or handed them over to save himself.

But he didn't, even when chased to a dead end, he kept his mouth shut.

Such loyalty and adherence to promises made him a true man.

"Brother Lu Qing, there's something I need to ask you. Lady Wei is unconscious due to an infected wound and is in critical condition. Can you help her?"

Lady Wei and her son were escorted out by a small group of Silver Moon Guards who fought to the death.

Mago almost sacrificed his life for them.

He didn't want her to die from her injuries, making many sacrifices meaningless.

Lu Qing fell into deep thought.

Mago didn't dare to rush him.

Lu Qing was powerful and skilled in medicine, and he seemed to command a mysterious and terrifying creature.

With his help, the chances of rescuing Lady Wei and her son were much higher.

Thinking about the mysterious creature, Mago discreetly scanned the surroundings.

During their journey, he hadn't seen the mysterious creature.

He wondered if it was hiding nearby or had already left.

Lu Qing didn't notice Mago's subtle movements. He was considering whether to get involved.

The situation was clear now.

Tian Cang Sect was the force targeting the Wei family during the county's turmoil.

Although their strength was unknown, as a sect with Precelestial experts, they were certainly formidable.

Opposing such a force would have severe consequences if exposed.

With Xiao Li around, Lu Qing wasn't too afraid of Postnatal martial artists.

But Precelestial experts were another matter.

Even Xiao Li might not pose much of a threat to such beings.

After some contemplation, Lu Qing decided to go with Mago.

Previously, the Wei family helped him fend off the Black Wolf Gang at Happy Fort.

He owed them a favor.

By rescuing Lady Wei and her son, he could repay that debt.

As for the Precelestial experts, they shouldn't be in the mountains.

The Precelestial Wang Cangyi, eyeing the Wei family's treasure, shouldn't leave the county and would be watching closely.

Otherwise, if he left and the Wei family moved the treasure, it would be a wasted effort.

Of course, this assumed that Tong Canglang and Wang Qingshan's deaths hadn't reached the county.

If the news of two disciples' deaths, one of whom was an adopted son, reached the county, who could predict if Wang Cangyi would go mad?

So, if they were to rescue someone, it had to be fast.

They had to transfer Lady Wei and her son before the news of Tong Canglang and Wang Qingshan's deaths reached the county.

"Alright, I'll go with you," Lu Qing finally said.

"Thank you, Brother Lu Qing!"

Mago was overjoyed and thanked him profusely.

With their decision made, they didn't delay in the cave.

The recovery ability of someone at the Tendons and Bones Realm was strong. With Lu Qing's treatment and Golden Healing Ointment, Mago's shoulder injury was no longer serious.

Except for not being able to use the injured arm in combat, normal activities were fine.

They prepared to head to the cave where Lady Wei and her son were hiding.

But before setting off, Lu Qing made a request.

Mago would point the direction, but Lu Qing would decide the route.

Mago had no objections.

He knew Lu Qing often came to the mountains for herbs and was more familiar with the area.

Lu Qing must have his reasons for making such a request.

Standing in front of the cave, Mago began to discern the direction.

Although he had fled in a panic from the young man in the leather armor, he had a rough idea of the direction.

After a while, Mago pointed Lu Qing in a direction.

With the direction set, Lu Qing led the way.

Xiao Li, on his shoulder, occasionally gave hints.

The reason Lu Qing wanted to choose the route was due to Xiao Li.

Xiao Li had a miraculous sensing ability to detect the presence of nearby creatures from afar.

After consuming the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid, this ability had significantly enhanced.

Lu Qing had tested that if Xiao Li focused, it could sense creatures within a mile radius.

In open terrain, this might not seem far.

But in the mountains, this range was extensive.

In the dense forest, with its complex environment, hiding a few steps away could make you invisible.

A mile's sensing range was akin to having a divine eye.

Lu Qing communicated with Xiao Li while choosing the route, occasionally changing direction.

Sometimes, they would suddenly hide.

Initially, Mago was confused, but when two powerful martial artists passed by shortly after they hid, he understood.

Lu Qing could foresee these martial artists' movements!

Mago was amazed and noticed Lu Qing's subtle gestures, as if communicating with something.

But on his shoulder, there was nothing visible.

He guessed that Lu Qing was communicating with the mysterious creature that killed the Internal Organs Realm man.

He speculated that the creature was responsible for sensing the martial artists.

What kind of creature could perfectly hide and possess such formidable sensing abilities!

Mago's curiosity peaked, but he sensed that Lu Qing didn't want to reveal information about the creature.

Despite his curiosity, he restrained himself from asking.

Lu Qing was also surprised.

After a while, Xiao Li had sensed several groups of martial artists.

How many people had Tian Cang Sect sent into the forest?

Or had Tong Canglang and Wang Qingshan's bodies been discovered, drawing everyone here?

Lu Qing couldn't be sure and could only proceed cautiously with Mago.

Fortunately, after passing through the forest, Xiao Li no longer sensed any martial activity.

Their pace quickened.

Thanks to Xiao Li's sensing ability, Lu Qing and Mago arrived safely at the mountain where Lady Wei and her son were hiding.

"There's a hidden cave ahead where Lady Wei and Young Master Wei are hiding."

Mago indicated to Lu Qing.

Lu Qing nodded, and Xiao Li also sensed people in the cave.

At the cave entrance, Mago checked the small traps he had set as alarms before leaving in the morning.

Seeing they were undisturbed, he sighed in relief.

It seemed no one had discovered the cave during his absence.

Young Master Wei had also obediently stayed inside.

Mago walked into the cave, and as he reached the entrance, a stick swung out, aimed at his head.

Mago dodged and said in a deep voice, "Young Master, it's me."

"Mago, you're back?"

Young Master Wei's surprised voice came from inside, and he ran out, holding the stick he had used to attack Mago.

"Did you find the medicine? No, you're hurt?"

Young Master Wei first asked about the herbs but then saw the blood on Mago's shoulder and his arm hanging in front.

"I was discovered by those people and got injured. Luckily, Brother Lu Qing was there; otherwise, I wouldn't have made it back."

"Brother Lu Qing?"

Young Master Wei was puzzled and then noticed Lu Qing standing not far away.

His eyes widened.

"I know you, you're the one, the one..."

Young Master Wei found Lu Qing familiar but couldn't recall his name.

"This is Brother Lu Qing, Disciple of Old Doctor Chen. You should remember him," Mago reminded.

"Right, I remember, you're the one who made my medicine every day!" Young Master Wei finally recalled.

When he was seriously injured, he stayed with Old Doctor Chen for a while.

During that time, Lu Qing made his medicine and brought it to him daily.

But during that period, Lu Qing rarely spoke to him and barely appeared in front of him.

So, although Young Master Wei found him familiar, they weren't close.

"Greetings, Young Master Wei. I didn't expect to meet you here in the mountains," Lu Qing said with a smile.

"How did you get here?" Young Master Wei was surprised.

"Young Master, Brother Lu Qing is Old Doctor Chen's prized disciple and also skilled in medicine. I ran into him

in the mountains and invited him to help Lady Wei," Mago explained.

"Right, you're Old Doctor Chen's disciple." Young Master Wei reacted, then anxiously said, "Lu Qing, please save my mother. I just checked on her, and her fever has worsened, and she's delirious. She looks very bad!"

Speaking of Lady Wei, Young Master Wei couldn't care about why Lu Qing was there and urgently pleaded.

"Oh, it's that serious? Let me take a look."

Hearing Young Master Wei's words, Lu Qing's expression turned serious.

The three entered the cave, and Mago, to avoid suspicion and to keep watch, stayed at the entrance.

Lu Qing followed Young Master Wei into the cave to where Lady Wei was lying.

Seeing Lady Wei, Lu Qing frowned.

She was lying on her side with leaves and grass cushioning her from the cold ground.

Her unbandaged side was wrapped in white cloth, faintly showing blood, indicating the wound wasn't healing well.

Her face was pale, and sweat covered her forehead.

Lu Qing knew she was nearing her limit.

He took her pulse and frowned deeper.

He activated his ability to examine her condition.

Soon, a faint white light mixed with a touch of gray appeared from her body.

[Li Ningyan: Mistress of the Wei family, wife of Wei Xinghe, mother of Wei Zian, outwardly gentle but strong-willed and kind-hearted.]

[Her waist and abdomen were wounded by a blade, causing significant blood loss. Due to improper treatment, the wound is severely infected, and she is on the verge of death.]

Seeing the information, Lu Qing's expression grew serious.

He didn't expect her condition to deteriorate so badly.

If he had come half an hour later, she might not have survived.

Even now, the situation was dire.

"Lu Qing, how is my mother?"

Young Master Wei anxiously asked after Lu Qing checked her pulse.

"Young Master, to be honest, Lady Wei's condition is very bad," Lu Qing said. "Her wound wasn't treated properly, leading to severe infection, and the prolonged journey has worsened her condition. She's in critical danger."

"What should we do?" Young Master Wei panicked, grabbing Lu Qing's sleeve and pleading, "Lu Qing, please save my mother. I'll give you anything you want if you save her!"

"Young Master, there's no need for that. Healing is a doctor's duty. I will do my best to save her," Lu Qing said.

After calming Young Master Wei, Lu Qing began to ponder.

With Lady Wei's current condition, ordinary medicine wouldn't help.

He decided to use the special medicine he had prepared earlier.
