Then, he mingled in some bustling places to gather information and returned to the Black Tortoise Family. As he was walking on the street near the entrance of the Black Tortoise Family estate, an object suddenly fell from above, which seemed to be a woman, quite beautiful at that.

"..." Upon seeing the woman who had fallen in a rather undignified position, Xianyao thought for a moment before choosing to take another route and leave.

A woman is like a flood; this woman falling from the sky must be heaven-sent disaster. It's best to avoid her.

"..."

The woman was initially calling out in pain but stopped when she saw Xianyao’s reaction, for she didn’t expect him to help and certainly wouldn't accept help from a servant like Xianyao, especially one belonging to the Black Tortoise Family.

However, Xianyao simply walked around her without even casting an extra glance in her direction, which infuriated her greatly.

"Stop!"

"..." Ignoring her, Xianyao continued walking and thought it must be his imagination playing tricks on him.

“You stop right there!” She rolled over with a quick motion and appeared before Xianyao. This made him realize that he wasn't imagining things.

"Miss, what is your surname" Xianyao politely asked.

"Wang..." The woman answered instinctively but then suddenly realized why she had responded to this boy when her intention was to demand an explanation.

“Hello, Miss Wang, I need to get going, do you mind” He pointed at a side and didn't ask her to make way for him; he just wanted permission to pass by.

"No, I have to..." Miss Wang was about to say something but couldn’t think of anything to demand. She had stopped someone to seek redress, but what was she supposed to accuse them of

They hadn't done anything wrong and hadn’t harmed her.

"What do you want" Xianyao asked politely again.

"I need to go home. You give me a boost so I can climb over the wall." Miss Wang pointed at a high fence she had fallen from earlier, which was too tall for most people to scale.

Since she couldn’t demand justice from him, she might as well use him as stepping stones!

"That's not good. I don't know you and if you're a thief, wouldn't that make me an accomplice" Xianyao shook his head. He didn't know where Miss Wang had fallen from or what was going on; he couldn’t help her climb the wall.

"Who needs to know you Come here and give me a boost!" With that, she grabbed him tightly.

“You...” Xianyao was startled as he saw Miss Wang throw him into the corner before stepping on his shoulder to climb over the wall.

"Thank you!" Her voice drifted from inside but then fell silent.

Xianyao frowned slightly, pondered for a moment and shook his head. Then he continued walking back to the Black Tortoise Family estate. Perhaps Miss Wang was just an illusion; he had been too tired lately!

“Hm, it must have been an illusion!”

After returning to the Black Tortoise Family estate, Xianyao found that those in charge of the demonic beast enclosures were missing. Seeing a sickly young demonic beast, he treated it and fed it some food. After taking care of other demonic beasts, he left for his next task.

Today, he intended to go to the Swordsmith Workshop because he had a keen interest in swordsmanship lately. He wanted to upgrade his own sword and if possible, make one for Miss Big Sister.

A sword made from fallen meteorite iron That would be too expensive; that kind of material isn't easily obtainable!

Just as he was about to leave, a group of people followed him in, all looking quite anxious. These were the personnel who should have been at the demonic beast enclosures, including Mr. Li and other managers.

But before Mr. Li stood a strong-looking woman with her hands behind her back, coldly watching forward while others dared not speak.

"Make sure you look after my Yunyun properly; if anything happens to her, I'll hold all of you accountable." The lady said in an icy tone, making people feel chills. No one would doubt what she said.

“Miss Lingxiao, we will try our best, but if your Yunyun is diagnosed with a demonic beast's incurable disease, there’s little we can do,” Mr. Li and others were somewhat embarrassed. They knew this lady was difficult to please but felt it wasn't their fault.

Earlier, Miss Lingxiao's Yunyun had been brought in and tested positive for such an incurable illness of demonic beasts—suddenly appearing with no known cause or cure.

The bad news could only be conveyed to her. Although they knew that Miss Lingyun cared deeply about Yunyun, the truth couldn’t be concealed.

Consequently, Miss Lingxiao came in person to the demonic beast enclosures and gathered everyone together. The message was clear: carefully investigate and come up with treatment plans; if anything happens to her Yunyun, all will suffer accordingly.

The Li Manager and others were equally helpless. Miss Ling Xiao was one of the main figures among the younger generation, with both talent and strength being top-notch. If she weren't a girl, she might even be one of the best candidates for family head.

However, her authority within the Black Tortoise Clan wasn’t small either. It would be easy to punish those in charge of the Beast Pens without seeking others’ approval. Even if the Family Head knew that Miss Ling Xiao was being unreasonable, he could only talk about it.

Hence, Li Manager and others were quite troubled. They had encountered such situations a few times before; not just Miss Ling Xiao, but other young masters and misses as well. When servants ran into such issues, they could only consider themselves unlucky.

"I don’t care what illness it is, you must cure her for me. If you can't, go find someone else to do it! This is just because of your incompetence!!" Miss Ling Xiao spoke coldly.

"This… " Li Manager and others were embarrassed. There would certainly be people more skilled than themselves, but they couldn’t admit that or they’d be admitting their own incompetence, right

"Yunyun, you can rest assured; I’ll definitely cure your illness…" Miss Ling Xiao approached a Beast Pen, looked at the small妖獸 Yunyun inside, and her expression softened. She no longer seemed cold.

“Waa waa…”

The little demon beast named Yunyun had been eating when she saw her owner calling out to her; she immediately leaped over cheerfully with a tail as long and big as her body, wagging it.

"Hmm Yunyun, you seem to have recovered…" Miss Ling Xiao was somewhat surprised by this situation. When they received Yunyun earlier, she had looked very sickly. Although she wasn’t quite as lively as usual now, she didn’t look like someone with a serious illness anymore.

Not only was Miss Ling Xiao slightly taken aback, Li Manager and the others were also puzzled; they had just checked and found out that this little demon beast suffered from an incurable disease. Was it possible that Yunyun’s recovery was merely a deathbed rally

No, if it were a deathbed rally, she wouldn’t have been eating earlier since appetite usually decreases with such illnesses. But Yunyun had just eaten happily.

"Miss Ling Xiao, let me take another look at Yunyun." Li Manager and others suggested. The best way to solve the mystery was to see what state Yunyun was actually in.

"Be thorough," Miss Ling Xiao nodded, regardless of the situation, she wanted these professionals to have a check.

“Waa waa…”

The demon beast Yunyun wagged her tail and looked at Li Manager and others as if unwilling. However, in the end, she submitted to their examination.

"Strange, how could this be…"

"Could we have mistaken it"

“This…”

The managers found out after checking that Yunyun’s illness seemed to be cured. It was extremely unexpected; when they saw her earlier she had looked like she would die soon, but now she suddenly appeared fine!

"It can’t be a mistake of perception; all of us have verified it and we can't possibly all be wrong…" Li Manager shook his head as he denied the possibility that it was just an illusion.

“Correct. It’s not an illusion. She did suffer from illness, but now she seems to only just recover from a major one; someone must have cured her disease.” Another manager said and had recognized Yunyun's present condition.

"Who could cure such a disease And considering we were all together in there, who exactly was it" Someone voiced their doubts. This situation seemed a bit supernatural—everyone had been inside the Beast Pen when they entered earlier.

“That’s not the point; how long did we spend inside just now Such an illness could never be cured within such a short period of time. Who exactly has such capability” Someone raised their own suspicions, propelling everyone into an even greater mystery and overturning some people's ideas that seemed unlikely.

Previously, maybe there were still those who thought experts might have intervened to help; but the experts shouldn’t be here, so it was just a possibility. But now even if these experts could appear here, they wouldn’t be able to solve this illness in such a short time, thereby overturning some possibilities.

“Could it be that Yunyun wasn't originally suffering from that disease but instead had an illness with similar symptoms” Li Manager proposed this possibility; only this explanation made sense of the situation at hand.

"Yeah, it should be so. Many illnesses look alike and we might have misdiagnosed." Other managers agreed.

“Hmph! Misdiagnosis!” Miss Ling Xiao scoffed coldly from one side.

"…"

They had forgotten that this young miss was still around. Accusing them of being wrong gave her an opportunity to throw a tantrum; how foolish!

The sweat dripped down the backs of Li Manager and others as they looked at Miss Ling Xiao with fear, praying in their hearts: Don’t fly off the handle, don’t fly off the handle… treat us like we’re nothing.

“Regardless whether it was a misdiagnosis or not; whoever cured Yunyun’s illness must be rewarded. Find him for me.” Miss Ling Xiao said coldly.

A clear distinction between rewards and punishments—this was Miss Ling Xiao's personality. The people before them were neither right nor wrong since they had only performed an initial check without officially concluding anything yet, so there was no point in holding it against them either.s distributed the tokens."I don't want it!"
