My Evil Imperial Wife is Too Arrogant

Chapter 137: Pretending to be Calm or Actually Capable?

Hearing Shi Feng ask this, let alone Mu Yi and Mu Xia, even Ye Qing Han wanted to.

Lou Mu Yan smiled indifferently and said: You can, but I need to treat Elder Lus chronic illness first, do you also want to watch?

Elder Lus chronic illness was much easier to treat than Ye Qing Les foetal poison.

Young Miss Lou is so generous, then I wont be polite. Shi Feng nodded.

Many years ago Elder Lu was injured by a Sword Monarchs sword aura. His meridians were blocked and his cultivation base halted. The Ye Clan also used to spend high prices to invite many Pharmacists or Alchemists to treat him, and even a Grade 3 Alchemist of their Shi Clan came to see him. But in the end, they ended up unable to heal the illness.

He had also studied Elder Lus chronic illness and thought of a method, but it was too dangerous, so he had never proposed it. Now he wanted to see just how Lou Mu Yan cured this type of chronic illness.

Mu Yan, you dont mind if two more people watch right?

Mu Xias heart also felt as if it had been scratched by a cat¹. Ye Qing Le was her bosom friend. If she couldnt cure the foetal poison, then she wouldnt live past eighteen years old. Even if she didnt believe that Lou Mu Yan could cure it, she still felt an inexplicable hope rise in her heart.

I dont mind.

Lou Mu Yan didnt care how many people watched her treatments. She had a calm and firm disposition, and few people could affect her from applying needles.

Mu Yan is indeed straightforward. Im definitely befriending a person like you. Mu Xia liked women who werent pretentious, and Lou Mu Yans straightforwardness suited her taste very well.

Lou Mu Yan smiled at her, turned her head, and looked at Ye Qing Han, saying: Qing Han, find a peaceful and quiet place and invite Elder Lu over please.

Alright!

Ye Qing Han ordered the people behind him, then took the several people to a quiet courtyard in the Ye Clan.

The people chatted idly and waited, while Lou Mu Yan and Mu Xia also felt as if they had been friends for many years and were very agreeable with each other.

Especially Mu Xia. She found that no matter what she was talking about, Lou Mu Yan had things to say, and was very insightful. Even Mu Yi and Shi Feng who were sitting by their side couldnt resist but look askance at them.

About a quarter of an hour later, Ye Zhan in a simple attire, and an elegant middle-aged man walked in, followed by Elder Lu and a red-haired old man.

Ye Qing Han and Ye Qing Le were surprised to see both of them, Dad, Little Paternal Uncle.

Uncle Ye, Senior Ye. Mu Yi and the others immediately stood up and greeted the two in front formally.

Nephews and Nieces are too polite. The elegant middle-aged man waved his hand with a smile, then cast his eyes on Lou Mu Yan and said, smiling: This is the little girl of the Lou Clan, yes?

Greetings, Uncle Ye! Lou Mu Yan addressed politely.

We welcome you and the Third Prince to the Ye Clan. Ye Chen displayed some kindness in his eyes, and he and Ye Zhan walked to the other side and sat down, Lets all sit.

Elder Lu and the other old man in red also found a place to sit, then they looked at Lou Mu Yan together.

Ive heard that Lou girl doesnt mind others watching when treating illnesses. Ye Zhan and I also came to join in the fun. If its inconvenient, then well leave first. Ye Chen smiled and said to Lou Mu Yan.

Lou Mu Yan said neither humbly nor haughtily: This Junior does not mind.

Her tone was very light, evidently not nervous about two big Buddhas² watching her. Her humble attitude carried confidence, which actually made everyone here think even highly of her.

Lou girl, feel free to let loose your hands and feet³ and perform freely, we wont disturb you. This was a guarantee.

Lou Mu Yan nodded with a smile, then walked to a seat beside Elder Lu and sat down, Elder Lu, how have you been.

Greetings Young Miss Lou, this old man is very glad to be able to see Young Miss again. Elder Lus tone was very affectionate towards Lou Mu Yan, and his eyes hid faint excitement.

Ill take your pulse first.

Elder Lu stretched out a hand and put it on the table between the two seats, Please.

Lou Mu Yan placed two fingers on Elder Lus wrist, and she also probed into his body with a sliver of Mental Energy to understand the situation. After a while, she retrieved her hand and asked: Recently, when the chronic illness breaks out, the pain isnt as severe as before, right?

Ever since the last time Young Miss treated me with the golden needles, Im no longer pained to the bones, nor wish to rather die than live, which were things that I used to feel every three months when it breaks out. Even if there is a little feeling of pain, it was just like tickling, as if nothing. Elder Lu smiled sincerely.

Elder Lu, is it that you can now absorb some Spiritual Force and run it in your dantian, but it cant remain for a long time? Lou Mu Yan continued to ask.

Elder Lu nodded: Indeed, but this old man is already very pleased to be able to absorb Spiritual Energy again. It is all thanks to Young Misss treatment last time.

Elder Lu is too polite. Lou Mu Yan smiled, I already have a cure for your chronic illness, and I can cure it as long as I refine a pill and pair it with the golden needles.

If the Young Miss can truly cure this old mans chronic illness, then this old man will owe you a life. Elder Lu clasped his hands together tightly. Only he could deeply understand the feeling of having found something again that he had lost.

Lou Mu Yan smiled lightly and said: I had a deal with Qing Han before, and hes already paid for the fees for your treatment. Im just here to fulfil it, so Elder Lu has no need to be this formal.

Elder Lu, just take the treatment with a peace of mind. Ill discuss with Mu Yan about the repayment. Ye Qing Han looked at Elder Lu with a smile on his lips. Just let him repay this favour.

Elder Lu wasnt quarrelsome either, so he cupped his hands at Lou Mu Yan, gratefully saying: A mere thank you is an insufficient response to such a huge favour. Then I will trouble Young Miss Lou.

Lou Mu Yan took out a brush and paper from her interspatial ring and wrote a list to hand to Ye Qing Han, These are the Spiritual Herbs I need to refine the pill. Please prepare a portion.

As soon as Ye Qing Han was about to take it, the red-haired old man next to Elder Lu smiled and said: Little girl, can you let this old man take a look at your Spiritual Herbs list?

Lou Mu Yan knew the other was also an Alchemist, so she smiled and passed the paper into his hands directly.

The red-haired old man took the list and read it once, then confusion rose in his eyes. He had never seen a pill formula composed of these Spiritual Herbs before, and he had a thought in his heart, I have all these Spiritual Herbs in my interspatial ring. Will little girl refine the pills now?

He really wanted to see what this little girl was capable of, and what kind of pills she wanted to refine.

Then I trouble Senior to take out the Spiritual Herbs. Ill refine it now.

Lou Mu Yan also didnt want to delay any more time. All these people remained here undoubtedly because they wanted to see her capabilities, so shell just confidently and naturally let them see enough.

The red-haired old man didnt hesitate either, immediately took out the Spiritual Herbs that Lou Mu Yan required from his interspatial ring one by one and placed it in front of her.

These Spiritual Herbs werent that rare, but they were mostly medicines for dredging and promoting blood circulation. He usually carried some with him, but who knew it could be of use now.

Lou Mu Yan swept the Spiritual Herbs on the table with her eyes. Seeing that the age of each were relatively high, she took out the cyan cauldron with satisfaction and was ready to start refining pills in front of everyone.

Mu Yan, do you need us to withdraw for you to refine pills? Ye Qing Han knew that many Alchemists liked to work independently when refining pills and didnt like to be disturbed by outsiders.

Lou Mu Yan didnt expect Ye Qing Han, a man, to be so attentive, but she didnt have those habits. Shed already refined pills in front of the Imperial Family before, so whether there were people or whether there were none didnt have much effect on her.

No problem, no need to withdraw.

Her words also increased the interest in the eyes of the people present. They sure wanted to see if she was just pretending to be calm, or whether she was actually capable.
