Chapter 39 - Maid

Lu Yong caught Lu Yuan's unconscious body as he knowingly or unknowingly stared at the young man in front of him, who was wiping the blood and puss on his fingers with a white cloth. His eyes shifted to the white cloth for a second before returning to his son's unconscious body. He was bleeding profusely from all over, particularly from his left hollow eye socket, where blood and puss oozed out.

His body trembled slightly as a white pill appeared in his hand, which he quickly fed to his unconscious son. And as soon as that pill entered Lu Yuan's mouth, it melted and stopped the bleeding. Lu Yong sighed lightly and glanced at Andy for a moment before leaving the Hall with an unconscious Lu Yuan.

The Patriarch of the Shi clan was slumped, patches of blood could be seen on the ground, his mouth stained in blood and his shocked eyes staring at the departing figure of Lu Yong. His mind could not comprehend what he had just witnessed. Suddenly, his gaze shifted to Andy, who was standing by the door, staring at the departing figure of Lu Yong.

He closed his eyes for a moment, and his body trembled slightly as he struggled to stand up. His eyes were drawn to Shi Yi's unconscious body on the ground before returning to Andy. His mouth opened slightly to say something, but a sigh escaped his lips as he crept out of the hall.

The sound of faint breath echoed in a silent hall, where Andy stood straight with his hands behind his back, his blue eyes hidden behind the mask, peering at the departing figure of Lu Yong. His body quivered as a drop of blood seeped out of his nose, but he remained still. Suddenly, a voice echoed in his mind.

"Are you crazy? Do you know you're still in the core formation realm, but you dared to confront a Profound Realm cultivator? Even if your body is forged, it will be damaged if someone two ranks higher than you attacks it. Fortunately, I could contain some of the damage. If you don't want to be seriously injured, don't do this type of adventure again."

Andy mumbled as his gaze was fixed to the empty gate. "So, what do you want me to do? Give in to him. Do you want me to sabotage my own future? What do you think will happen if rumors spread about me being suppressed by that man? Any Tom, Dick, and Harry will act high and mighty in front of me. Even if they are in the higher realm, this world should know they cannot mess with me. Regarding the injury," a bright white pill appeared in his hand, which he quickly swallowed. However, he smirked unexpectedly.

"Did you see his expression when I plucked that eye out? Did he seem worried about his son's injury right in front of his eyes? No, he was only concerned with his goddamn reputation. Even if his useless son had died in front of him, he wouldn't have felt a jot of regret."

"What exactly are you blabbering?" The voice of the Demon Lord jolted him out of his stupor.

Andy's body trembled, but he whiffed his head and took a deep breath when a sweet voice interrupted him.

"What happened?" His gaze was pulled to a beautiful blue-haired beauty who was running towards him with a concerned look in her eyes.

She rushed over and wiped the blood from her thumb while looking at him with concerned eyes, and her lips opened slightly. "What happened? I felt a suffocating pressure erupting from this room."

Andy's gaze was fixed on the concerned face in front of him before he smiled slightly and patted her cheeks. "Nothing. Just some flies were buzzing around. Come on over and I'll show you something."

As he drew her over to the place where Shi Yi's unconscious body was lying on the floor. Susan's face wrinkled as she discovered the unconscious girl.

"Who is she?" Susan wondered aloud, turning her head to face Andy, who was staring at unconscious Shi Yi.

Andy chuckled softly as two bright red pills appeared on his hand, one small and one large, and he handed the large pill to her.

"Eat it,"

Susan's brow furrowed, but she still took the pill from Andy's hands, who smiled slightly and knelt down while his one hand opened the dainty mouth of unconscious Shi Yi, and his other hand pushed the small pill into her mouth, and his other hand closed his mouth again.

"Eat it, quickly," he said as he turned to face Susan.

Just as his voice reached her ears, she quickly gulped the pill without even asking the question. Suddenly, the pill melted in her mouth as she felt a profound connection form between her and the girl lying on the ground.

She scowled as she turned to face Andy, who was chuckling and staring at the unconscious girl.

"Who is she?" Susan's voice reached Andy's ears, and he turned to look at her, his lips curled into a smile.

"Maid,"

-----------------------------------

A silver-haired young man lay down in a plush bed in a room of a large courtyard, his body covered in bandages, especially his eye, which was covered with a black patch.

A gorgeous woman in red cheongsam stood beside the bed, her blood-red eyes locked on the unconscious young man, her soft hands clenched tightly as she muttered slowly.

"WHO WAS IT,"

Suddenly, a suffocating pressure emanated from that courtyard and spread throughout the entire estate.
