Chapter 970: Scold Badly
Thinking of this, Lu Zhixi’s face suddenly turned red, showing a somewhat ashamed expression. She spoke to Zhuge Feng, “City Lord Zhuge, after the blood exchange of the young city lord today, there isn’t much root cause left. After all the blood exchange tomorrow, the young city lord can try to be exposed to the sun.”
Zhuge Xiaotian stood up excitedly and said, “Fairy Zhixi, I… I expose to the sun tomorrow? Really?”
People who had never lost the sun couldn’t understand his pain and torture of being locked in a dark bas.e.m.e.nt.
Zhuge Xiaotian’s desire for suns.h.i.+ne had reached the point of madness.
The next day arrived quickly. All the blood in Zhuge Xiaotian’s body was replaced by the last blood sucking golden silkworm and the lingxue pill.
Lu Zhixi led Zhuge Xiaotian out of the bas.e.m.e.nt slowly, and he finally stood under the sun.
The warm sunlight shone on Zhuge Xiaotian’s body, stroking his skin little by little.
Zhuge Xiaotian looked a bit terrified, but he soon discovered that there was no pain. Unlike before, his skin would have red spots as soon as it was exposed to the sun.
He opened his arms to embrace the sunlight. Suddenly, he turned to look at Zhuge Feng and said in a trembling voice, “Father–! Look… I didn’t feel uncomfortable under the sun…”
Zhuge Xiaotian wiped the tears on his face and nodded; his eyes filled with joy and happiness.
This scene in the courtyard of the City Lord’s Mansion quickly spread throughout Yongan City.
Suddenly, the people in Yongan City who were full of confidence in Fairy Zhixi crazily supported her.
And the odds in Changle Gambling House that were stabilized by Nangong Yu suddenly jumped to more than 1: 300.
As for Xi Yue, who wanted to use Fairy Zhixi’s reputation to increase his fame, was scolded by everyone.
Everyone was waiting the announcement that the young city lord had recovered the day after tomorrow, then they would let Xi Yue kneel on the city wall to beg everyone for mercy.
Master Yuehua who originally had an excellent reputation in Yongan City would be implicated by Xi Yue.
Master Yuehua made medicinal pills to control the plague more than 10 years ago, saving the lives of hundreds of people in Yongan City. At that time, all people of the Yongan City truly regarded him as a hero and savior.
However, more than 10 years have pa.s.sed. Many people who had survived that plague had either left the city or had forgotten about the plague. Some old people who had no cultivation had long been dead.
In the past 10 years, Master Yuehua didn’t refine any special elixir, and he hadn’t been treating people.
Slowly, everyone forgot about the savior of Yongan City. Although some people remembered his past achievements, most of them didn’t care much.
Besides, in the compet.i.tion between Fairy Zhixi and Xi Yue, someone reported that Master Yuehua had favored Xi Yue several times because of his own self-interest which caused Fairy Zhixi to suffer great injustice.
In particular, Master Yuehua had long been unable to refine pills and treat patients, but he had been deceiving everyone with the t.i.tle of the fourth rank doctor. Once such a rumor came out, everyone had a bad impression of Master Yuehua.
