"Shen Lang, how did you get here?"
Hearing Shen Lang's voice, Tang Wuzui opened his eyes with difficulty and said weakly, "That's not the point. The point is why you ended up like this and didn't tell me."
Shen Lang pulled over a chair and sat down in front of Tang Wuzui. "What exactly is wrong with you?"
"What? Can't you, the divine doctor, tell what's wrong with me?"
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Tang Wuzui said with a bitter smile, "If even you, the divine doctor, can't tell, then I'm truly beyond saving."
"Your body is very weak, but it doesn't seem like an illness, nor like poisoning. I can't figure it out."
Shen Lang looked at Tang Wuzui and asked, "When did this happen?"
"A week ago. I don't know what happened, but I suddenly fell ill and ended up like this."
Tang Wuzui looked at Shen Lang despairingly. "Shen Lang, thank you for coming to see me before I die. It lessens my regrets."
"You won't die. You won't die."
Hearing Tang Wuzui's words, Shen Lang said, "Although I don't know if you are ill or poisoned, with my abilities, I can definitely cure you."
"Really?"
Hearing Shen Lang's words, a glimmer of hope appeared in Tang Wuzui's despairing eyes. She asked cautiously.
"Of course, it's true. When have I ever lied to you?"
As he spoke, Shen Lang extended his right hand, grasped Tang Wuzui's right hand, and began to activate one of the two mysterious powers hidden within his body.
When Shen Lang was in Peach Blossom Village, he accidentally merged the Dragon Yuan into his body. As a result, his left hand possessed a power capable of destroying everything. Shen Lang had used it to kill countless powerful enemies and named it Annihilation Beam.
The power in Shen Lang's right hand was life energy. Shen Lang had once used this peculiar power to revive Song Qingyi, whose heart had stopped beating and whose pulse had ceased. Shen Lang later named this mysterious power Longevity.
Shen Lang couldn't tell if Tang Wuzui was ill or poisoned, so he couldn't prescribe the right treatment. However, this power could definitely cure Tang Wuzui's strange illness.
"What?"
As Shen Lang grabbed her right hand, Tang Wuzui felt a surge of life-giving energy enter her body. In just a moment, this vital energy spread throughout her entire being, sweeping through her body like garbage removal. Tang Wuzui, who had been extremely weak, continuously regained her spirit and energy, and her deathly pale complexion became rosy.
Thirty seconds later, Tang Wuzui had completely recovered and no longer looked like she was on the brink of death.
"How is this possible?"
Qin Lian Yue, standing nearby, saw this scene and her eyes widened. She looked at Shen Lang and said, "I've consulted many experts about Tang Wuzui's illness, and none could diagnose or cure it. Why is she as good as new in less than a minute after you held her hand?"
Shen Lang heard this, released Tang Wuzui's hand, and smiled at Qin Lian Yue. "It cannot be told, it cannot be told."
"Shen Lang... I feel like I'm cured."
After Shen Lang finished speaking, Tang Wuzui felt even healthier than before she fell ill. She excitedly jumped out of bed and tightly embraced Shen Lang.
"I'm glad you're alright."
Being hugged like this by a woman made Shen Lang a little awkward, as he was already a married man.
However, he didn't want to dampen Tang Wuzui's spirits, as she was overjoyed by her recovery. He allowed her to hold him.
Unexpectedly, just as Shen Lang thought Tang Wuzui would let go after her excitement, she kissed him on the lips.
It had to be said that Tang Wuzui's lips were wonderfully sweet, like a green apple, making one unable to resist.
For a moment, Shen Lang was lost in the moment. It wasn't until two minutes later that he came to his senses and forced himself to separate from Tang Wuzui.
"Ahem... Tang Wuzui, don't get too excited. Be dignified."
Shen Lang pulled away from Tang Wuzui and said with a smile, "I admit I'm somewhat charming, but don't scare me like this. I am, after all, a married man."
"Hmph, you're enjoying the benefits and still playing modest. You're a scoundrel."
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Qin Lian Yue snorted coldly from the side.
"Yes, I'm enjoying the benefits and playing modest. I'm ungrateful."
Faced with Qin Lian Yue's accusation, Shen Lang spread his hands in a gesture of resignation, appearing indifferent.
"You..."
Qin Lian Yue was so angry she could barely speak.
"Shen Lang, you seem to be in a bad mood today. Did something happen?"
Tang Wuzui was a sensitive person. From Shen Lang's reaction today, she knew he had something weighing on his mind, so she asked.
"Alas..."
Seeing that Tang Wuzui had seen through him, Shen Lang sighed and said, "It's fine to tell you. My woman, Ye Shishi, has been captured."
"Who did it?"
Tang Wuzui was shocked upon hearing this and asked.
"People from the Tang Clan of Shu."
Shen Lang said, "I have a grudge against the Tang Clan. I sent Tang Jiutian's son, Tang Zixuan, to the gallows. I broke Tang Qu Bing's arm. Later, I married Wang Yuyan and slapped Tang Wuzui. But they don't dare to act directly against me, so they can only threaten me by targeting the women around me."
"Tang Clan? Tang Jiutian?"
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Tang Wuzui said, "I didn't expect them to still be so unscrupulous after all these years."
"What? You know people from the Tang Clan?"
Hearing Tang Wuzui's words, Shen Lang's face showed surprise.
"I..."
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Tang Wuzui opened her mouth, but hesitated to speak.
"Alright, if you don't want to say it, then don't. Everyone has their own privacy."
Shen Lang looked at Tang Wuzui and said, "I'm going to Shu tomorrow to rescue her. Take good care of yourself, and I'll visit you again after I've rescued Ye Shishi."
"Shen Lang... I heard that the Tang Clan of Shu is a dragon's den and a tiger's lair. Will you be in danger?"
Hearing that Shen Lang was going to Shu to rescue someone, Tang Wuzui held Shen Lang's right hand and said with concern.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. I've been to Shu once before."
Shen Lang looked at Tang Wuzui and smiled. "Rest well, and wait for my good news."
After saying this, Shen Lang turned and left Baihua Hospital. Half an hour later, he returned to the villa.
However, as soon as Shen Lang arrived home, Bai Niao and Wu Ya had already appeared in Shu.
"Bai Niao, rescuing Ye Shishi from the Tang Clan will be a difficult mission for us."
Wu Ya looked at Bai Niao and said with a wry smile, "I don't understand why the Young Lady doesn't want us to kill Ye Shishi directly, but instead wants us to rescue her and then make her disappear."
Bai Niao sighed. "I don't understand either, but since it's the Young Lady's order, we must execute it unconditionally."
