434 Father and Daughter Meet (2)

Song Jingchen rubbed her head and comforted her. “Be good. That’s the only way I can be at ease.”

In his path of revenge, Shen Yijia was implicated by their family. Since he could no longer bear to let her go, he could only give her more protection.

As for Mother, Brother Hao, and Sister Huan, they would definitely understand and agree.

Shen Yijia pursed her lips and did not retort, but she had other plans.

Ji Yunxi gave Xuanyuan Ce acupuncture. While waiting for the needle to function, she prescribed another prescription and even prepared a medicinal bath.

After doing this, the sky had already darkened.

The emperor had instructed her to leave the palace today to treat Xuanyuan Ce.

The monk sent by the abbot went to ask the emperor for instructions. For one thing, Xuanyuan Ce could not get into trouble in Great Xia. This was also an opportunity to befriend the Xuanyuan Kingdom, so the emperor naturally would not refuse.

If not for the fact that he knew that Ji Yunxi’s medical skills were better than the imperial physicians in the imperial hospital, the emperor would have even sent those imperial physicians over.

Therefore, she was not in a hurry to return to the palace today.

The host got someone to arrange a room for her.

After putting away the needles, Ji Yunxi’s head was already covered in sweat. Mo Yu wiped her sweat with a handkerchief.

The bud between her eyebrows was already as red as fire. With this rub, it seemed to come alive, making people’s gazes sink into it.

Xuanyuan Ce was stunned.

This was originally a very rude behavior, but Ji Yunxi pretended not to see it. Instead, she instructed, “Your Highness, you can’t think too much now. You have to try your best to relax. Otherwise, no matter how good the medicine is, it’s useless.”

She had a frank expression on her face. She did not flatter him, nor did she feel superior just because she was the one who saved him. She only reminded him because she was a doctor.

Xuanyuan Ce came back to his senses and a trace of disappointment flashed across his face. “You’ve worked hard. Go back and rest early. Chu Feng, send Miss Ji off.”

Ji Yunxi bowed. “I’ll check your pulse again tomorrow.”

With that, she turned around and left.

Chu Feng followed Xuanyuan Ce and did not forget to close the door.

The abbot sat quietly at the side. After they left, he looked at Xuanyuan Ce. “Amitabha. It seems that you’ve found the person you’re looking for.”

Xuanyuan Ce did not answer him. The melancholy he had when he faced Ji Yunxi was gone.

He lowered his head and twirled the jade ring on his finger. “You said that when Ji Luo appeared back then, she was covered in injuries. Moreover, after she left, someone came here to look for her?”

The abbot nodded. “That’s true. If not for the fire, the Hidden Spirit Temple would have suffered too.”

Xuanyuan Ce closed his eyes. “Those people must have found some clues and left. They just know that she’s no longer here.”

“And they never appeared again. Could it be because Ji Luo was already in their hands?”

The host’s expression softened slightly. “What do you mean?”

“I believe in my intuition,” Xuanyuan Ce suddenly said, then smiled. “But you’re right. I’ve indeed found my daughter.”

The abbot was confused, but he did not pursue the matter. The karma between him and his benefactor had long been resolved when she appeared in the Hidden Spirit Temple covered in blood.

If not for the fact that this fellow was too difficult to deal with, he would not have mentioned this matter.

He chanted a Buddhist proclamation with a benevolent expression on his face, but his words were impolite. “When are you leaving?”

As long as this person stayed in the Hidden Spirit Temple, he would not be able to rest in peace.

Xuanyuan Ce raised his eyebrows and was about to answer when he suddenly looked at the closed door with a cold expression. “Who is it?”

At the same time, the jade ring flew out of his hand.

“Ah!”

A woman’s cry came from outside the door.

The host and Xuanyuan Ce pushed open the door and walked out almost at the same time.

Under the moonlight, a girl in pink sat weakly on the ground. Beside the girl in pink stood a man in black with a silver mask. The mask shone coldly under the moonlight.

“Demon Guards,” Xuanyuan Ce spat out. The murderous aura on his body dissipated. He looked coldly at the girl who had her head lowered and was clearly frightened. “Who are you?”

The Demon Guards were not ordinary secret guards, just like how the emperor had secret guards by his side.

In the Xuanyuan Kingdom, although the Shadow Guards were also responsible for protecting the safety of the royal family, they were not the most powerful.

Above the Shadow Guards were the Demon Guards.

If there were a thousand people who had been training since they were young, and the ten people who stood out could be chosen as Shadow Guards, then only one person could be chosen as a Demon Guard. Moreover, a Demon Guard needed to have the ability to fight against ten Shadow Guards.
