Chapter 133: Chapter 132 I am a Daoist, with a certificate

Li City’s City Guardian Yu Qiucai’s residence has been filled with worry recently, as his beloved daughter, Yu Yun Die, suddenly collapsed and lost consciousness. When she woke up, she seemed hazy, as if she had lost her soul. She would cry and then laugh, and even ran around the yard wildly after taking off her coat, which terrified everyone in her household. They claimed that the young miss was possessed by an evil spirit.

In her fury, Mrs. Yu suppressed the news to prevent it from spreading beyond their household, while seeking a doctor to examine her daughter. However, even after consulting three different doctors, none could diagnose the issue. Given that Miss Yu was usually in good health, the doctors attributed her condition to a woman’s frailty and prescribed a calming and restorative prescription before leaving.

After the prescriptions were administered and the medicine given, there was no improvement in Miss Yu’s condition. In desperation, when she picked up scissors to cut her hair one day, Yu Qiucai and his wife panicked. They quietly sought a talisman from the temple to hang on her, and took advantage of the night to invite a priestess from Jing’an Temple to perform a ritual.

Considering the situation involved their daughter, inviting a priestess to their home could harm her reputation and affect her prospects of marriage, so they dared not make a big show of it.

All these efforts bore no fruit, and Miss Yu continued to deteriorate rapidly, which made Mrs. Yu cry incessantly, urging Yu Qiucai day and night to seek help from the Divine Doctor.

Poor Yu Qiucai, with a handful of his beard gone, set out from the mansion with a grim face, hearing that the doctor residing at Changsheng Hall was also not bad.

"My lord."

Just as Yu Qiucai was mounting his horse to leave, someone blocked his path; a young man in a green robe, with a very handsome face.

Normally, Yu Qiucai might have taken a second look, but with his daughter suffering back home, who was this young man daring to stop him?

"What do you want, daring to block my carriage? Move aside," Yu Qiucai wielded his whip, ready to ride away.

"Is the lord’s beloved daughter ill?" Qin Liuxi smiled and said, "I might be able to relieve your worries!"

Yu Qiucai was startled—had the news of his daughter being cursed spread?

His expression hardened, and his stern face became even more intimidating as he shouted angrily, "Who is this impudent boy spouting nonsense in front of me? I will spare you because of your youth. Leave immediately, or don’t blame me for being rude."

Qin Liuxi, however, was not intimidated at all, saying, "My lord, Miss Yu’s life is at critical state. Covering up the truth will not help. Why not let me have a look? Oh, by the way, I am a Daoist from Qingping Temple, certified."

Becoming a Daoist wasn’t simple; one had to be truly skilled and certified by a Daoist Temple.

Yu Qiucai paused, a Daoist?

Hmph, previously that priestess from Jing’an Temple jumped about chaotically and his daughter did not get better. It was clear that the Taoist Sect was just after silver.

Before he could react further, Qin Liuxi added, "Isn’t the lord out to seek a doctor? I might be able to cure Miss Yu’s illness. Why not let me try? Also, the lord should not go out; I think your wife might have fainted." He paused, then added, "But, it’s good news, congratulations, lord."

How infuriating!

This youngster not only spoke nonsense but also cursed his wife and then had the audacity to call it a good thing and congratulate him?

Yu Qiucai raised his whip, eager to strike, but just then, a house servant tumbled out from the mansion gate. Seeing him still near the gate, the servant was startled but then delighted, rushing to the horse, saying, "My lord, did you go out or just came back? Did you bring a doctor? Please come inside, my lord, the mistress has fainted!"

Yu Qiucai’s expression changed dramatically, and he turned to look at Qin Liuxi, who was smiling like a blooming chrysanthemum!
