Chapter 774: Chapter 774: What Do You Think I Am?

Ye Mengyun came to her senses and took a deep look at Zhou Yu before saying,

"What’s the matter? Speak!"

"The Bai Family’s old master is in a critical condition right now. To cure him, we need some Spiritual Medicine, which is quite rare. I’m afraid only you can find it in a short time."

After pondering for a moment, Ye Mengyun neither agreed nor refused but said,

"Take me to see Old Bai."

Zhou Yu was taken aback, not understanding why Ye Mengyun wanted to see Bai Qishan, but he didn’t ask any further questions.

"Okay."

"Then follow me."

Zhou Yu led Ye Mengyun to Bai Qishan’s room.

At that moment, the Bai Family members were all gathered in Bai Qishan’s room, anxiously waiting.

Bai Yulou and Bai Yutong were particularly anxious.

"Zhou Yu, what’s the situation?"

"Can you find the Spiritual Medicine to save the old master?"

Zhou Yu looked at Bai Yulou and said,

"Uncle Bai, please be patient."

"Miss Ye would like to see the old master first."

At first, Bai Yulou hadn’t noticed the girl following behind Zhou Yu. Hearing Zhou Yu’s words, he then looked towards Ye Mengyun.

Upon seeing her, he was completely stunned.

Then, disbelief filled his eyes.

"Ye... Miss Ye???"

"Are you Miss Ye Mengyun from the Ye Family in the Capital City?"

As soon as Bai Yulou spoke, the other Bai Family members were also shocked, and then they all turned to look at Ye Mengyun.

Could this be Ye Mengyun, the most beloved granddaughter of Ye Zhongshan from the Capital City’s Ye Family?

Ye Mengyun nodded lightly.

"It’s me."

Hearing Ye Mengyun’s confirmation, the Bai Family members were astounded.

It was really the Miss of the Ye Family!!!

This was too unbelievable!!!

Why would the Miss of the Ye Family personally come here?

Bai Yulou gulped in astonishment.

"Zhou... Zhou Yu, why is Miss Ye here?"

Zhou Yu said with a serious tone,

"To save the old master, we need some precious Spiritual Medicine, and only the Ye Family can find these in a short time."

Hearing this, Bai Yulou immediately understood.

At that moment, the shock in his heart was immeasurable.

He could never have imagined that Zhou Yu, after going out briefly, had actually brought back the Miss of the Ye Family.

This Miss of the Ye Family was famously unapproachable toward strangers.

How could she have been persuaded if they were just mere acquaintances?

Clearly, Zhou Yu and the Miss of the Ye Family had a significant relationship.

While Bai Yulou was still in shock, he quickly cleared a path.

"Miss Ye, the old master is inside the room. This way, please!"

Ye Mengyun nodded and strode inside.

Zhou Yu and Bai Yulou accompanied her from behind.

Upon entering Bai Qishan’s room, they saw Bai Qishan lying on the bed, motionless, his whole body exuding a heavy aura of death, and even a musty smell emanating from him.

Ye Mengyun stared at Bai Qishan for a long while without saying a word.

Seeing this, a hint of curiosity flashed through Zhou Yu’s mind.

What is this woman looking at?

What Zhou Yu didn’t know was that although Ye Mengyun was staring at Bai Qishan, her mind was filled with the task entrusted to her by Ye Zhongshan.

She was conflicted about whether to take this opportunity to speak to Zhou Yu.

But wouldn’t speaking now be taking advantage of someone else’s misfortune?

Ye Mengyun couldn’t convince herself.

Seeing that Ye Mengyun remained silent for a long time, Zhou Yu spoke up.

"Um..."

"Miss Ye, the old master’s condition is very dire, only you can help now, you see..."

Zhou Yu hadn’t finished speaking when Mengyun suddenly turned around.

"Write down the herbs you need and give it to me on paper, I will have someone gather them for you," she said.

Zhou Yu hadn’t expected Mengyun to agree so readily.

He was visibly excited.

"That’s fantastic."

"Miss Ye, thank you very much."

Zhou Yu immediately took out pen and paper and wrote down the Spiritual Medicines he needed, handing the list to Mengyun.

Mengyun took it and glanced at it casually, but then her eyes twitched, and she stared at Zhou Yu.

"Are you sure you haven’t made a mistake?"

Although she wasn’t knowledgeable about medicine, the rarity of several of the herbs Zhou Yu had listed was even more precious than those needed for breaking through to the Saint Realm.

If measured in monetary terms, just the value of those herbs alone could probably match the annual revenue of ten listed companies.

She was still struggling with the matter of the Cultivation Technique, too embarrassed to bring it up with Zhou Yu, and here he was, showing no restraint at all!

Facing Mengyun’s furious gaze, Zhou Yu touched his nose.

"Well, I know these herbs are quite rare, but Grandpa’s injuries are really serious, especially the severe depletion of his vital energy. To heal, we have no other choice..."

"Quite rare?" Mengyun glared at Zhou Yu.

"Just quite rare? Do you think my place is a treasury of Spiritual Medicine where you can have whatever you want?"

Zhou Yu gave an awkward smile.

"If not, let me know how much money is needed, and I will try to gather it..."

"Regardless, you have already agreed, and you wouldn’t think of going back on your word now, would you? That would damage your reputation as Miss Ye."

"You..."

Mengyun nearly exploded with anger.

How dare he challenge her with his words.

Insufferable!!!

She snorted coldly.

"Your money wouldn’t even be enough to cover the fraction of the cost of these herbs, but since I’ve promised, I naturally won’t go back on my word!"

"Consider these herbs a gift from me."

"However, since I’ve done you this favor, you’ll have to do one for me," Mengyun said puffily.

Zhou Yu’s spirits lifted, and he quickly responded with a smile.

"No problem, not just one, I could handle ten, just give the word."

"Hmph, you say that now, but don’t make it difficult when I really need your help," Mengyun glared at him.

Zhou Yu hastily assured her.

"It won’t be difficult, it won’t be difficult."

"You say."

"We’ll discuss it later," Mengyun said with another glare at Zhou Yu before grabbing the prescription and walking out.

People from Bai Yulou hurriedly treated Mengyun like a celebrity escorting her out.

Once outside, Mengyun asked the Bai Family to stay and left alone.

After Mengyun left, the people from the Bai Family looked at Zhou Yu with surprise in their eyes.

Wasn’t Zhou Yu just a minor figure from Yancheng in Qin State?

How could he know such an extraordinary woman?

Bai Yulou’s expression changed repeatedly, and after hesitating, he finally asked,

"Zhou Yu, what exactly is your relationship with Miss Ye?"

Zhou Yu simply smiled.

"Let’s call it friendship."

Bai Yulou opened his mouth but did not know what to say next.

Indeed, what he wanted to ask was whether Zhou Yu and Mengyun had something more intimate.

Considering a woman like Mengyun, with a formidable family background and beauty, what man wouldn’t love her?

After the incident in the southern region of Mount Wutai, Bai Yulou already considered Zhou Yu as an important reliance for the Bai Family’s future resurgence. If anything happened between Zhou Yu and Mengyun, wouldn’t his niece, Lin Luoluo, be out of the picture?

Seeing that Bai Yulou remained silent, Zhou Yu turned and went into Bai Qishan’s room to check the situation inside his body.

He had previously detected something strange consuming Bai Qishan’s vital energy.

But he had never had the chance to check it in detail, now was the right time to see what it actually was.

Zhou Yu grasped Bai Qishan’s wrist, a Divine Sense probing inside his body.

Moments later, a look of shock appeared in Zhou Yu’s eyes.

"This..."
