Chapter 1456

Yao Xin stared at Yan Aohan, her eyes sharp. "You know about our Demon Realm, and you know many other things. Who exactly are you?"

Yan Aohan’s eyes swept over her. Instantly, Yao Xin felt a crushing pressure wash over her. She shook her head frantically, barely managing to stabilize her heartbeat.

"You are not qualified to know who I am. Go back," Yan Aohan said. His voice left no room for argument, nor did it allow Yao Xin to harbor any further curiosity.

Yao Xin bit her lip again, nodded, and then opened a portal. She stepped directly into it. As soon as she entered, the portal closed automatically. Yan Aohan made several hand seals, and the aura of the portal vanished completely, leaving no trace.

"Venerable One, the demon has been dealt with. But what about those people she saved? They have seen her," Old Bai said, stepping forward to help.

"Do I need to teach you this? Just alter their memories," Yan Aohan glanced at Old Bai, thinking the question was unnecessary.

Old Bai chuckled. "I was just testing to see if your intelligence dropped after getting a wife. By the way, is that the right way to say it?"

"I think your intelligence is dropping," Yan Aohan gave him a白眼 (white eye/roll of eyes). "Let’s go. Check the other entrances quickly. I don’t want any messy incidents later."

Yan Aohan went to inspect the other entrances. After checking a few, his expression grew heavy.

"Boss, Leader, Venerable One, what’s wrong?" Old Bai could tell something was wrong just by looking at Yan Aohan’s face.

"The entrance to the Ability Realm has cracked. Judging by the cracks, at least three, but no more than seven, ability users have entered this realm," Yan Aohan said. With a wave of his hand, the cracks sealed instantly, leaving not even a tiny gap. "Old Bai, notify Old Black. Investigate these people immediately."

"Yes," Old Bai said, his tone becoming serious as soon as it involved official business.

Yan Aohan’s face remained grave. Ninety-nine percent of the beings on this planet in this realm were ordinary people. Only he, Zhu Yanyi, and a few others surpassed ordinary limits. If these people from the Ability Realm came in and acted recklessly, it could bring great disaster to this planet, possibly causing the realm to vanish.

Regardless, he would not allow anyone from the Ability Realm to enter. He had to protect this realm.

Yan Aohan sighed and looked at the sky. It seemed thinner than before.

Indeed, in Yan Aohan’s eyes, the sky was thinner, as if it could collapse at any moment. Whether this world could be saved depended on whether the Heavenly Dao would give it a chance.

Zhu Yanyi did not know that Yan Aohan had discovered something serious. For the past two days, she had been shuttling between her residential community and the hospital, as there was a patient waiting in each place.

"Mr. Roth, you have been very disciplined lately. Starting tomorrow, I can begin acupuncture treatment," Zhu Yanyi said, putting away her pulse diagnosis tools. She was quite satisfied with Mr. Roth’s physical condition.

Actually, Zhu Yanyi was even more satisfied with that bowl of bitter lotus water. Without it, Mr. Roth probably wouldn’t have been so disciplined.

So, it was clear that sometimes bitter lotus water was also a very good medicine.

Of course, this was just Zhu Yanyi’s private thought. She wouldn’t let others know.

"Acupuncture? Is that your golden needle treatment?" General Roth clearly had done some research on acupuncture.

Zhu Yanyi nodded with a smile. "General, you are correct. However, acupuncture uses not only golden needles but also silver and ordinary needles. I am just used to using golden needles, so I use them."

"Then I will try acupuncture tomorrow," General Roth said, very curious. He had heard of acupuncture techniques but never expected to experience it himself.

Seeing General Roth’s reaction, Zhu Yanyi felt a bit helpless. "General, acupuncture is for patients. For me, the ideal situation is that no one needs acupuncture. No one needing acupuncture means no one is sick."

General Roth coughed. "I am just curious. Your Chinese medicine is so miraculous. I must experience it personally."

"So, General, did you get lung cancer just for fun?" Zhu Yanyi looked at her, amused and exasperated.

"No, no. I got cancer without knowing it. Actually, I wouldn’t have gotten cancer otherwise," General Roth said seriously.

Heh. Zhu Yanyi looked at General Roth with a half-smile. How thick-skinned was this man? It seemed as if she could control whether she got sick or not. But Zhu Yanyi didn’t say this out loud. She just smiled and said, "General Roth, I don’t care how healthy your body is. Now that you are my patient here, you are just my patient. There is nothing else to say."

After Zhu Yanyi finished speaking, she looked at General Roth. "General, rest well today. Come for acupuncture tomorrow."

After Zhu Yanyi left, General Roth asked Captain Charles, "Was that little divine doctor scolding me?"

Captain Charles coughed twice. "General, who told you that you don’t get sick easily? But you did get cancer. There is a Chinese saying: 'If it doesn’t sing, it’s fine; if it sings, it amazes.' General, you don’t get sick, but if you do, it’s amazing."

"Nonsense. I just meant my body is very healthy," General Roth glared at Charles. "But that little divine doctor is good. When I was wrong, she pointed it out. She didn’t get angry at all."

Captain Charles was speechless.

When Zhu Yanyi was preparing to get off work, Wu Han appeared again. Seeing Wu Han, Zhu Yanyi remembered that she had promised to keep in touch with them regularly. It had been a long time. Although she had been busy, she hadn’t kept in touch as promised. She felt a bit guilty.

Wu Han saw Zhu Yanyi and smiled. "Little Master, we meet again."

"Okay, I was wrong," Zhu Yanyi said. She realized that whether she truly accepted the Wu family or not wasn’t the main point. The main point was that she had forgotten to consider some things, making Wu Han, who was nearly eighty years old, travel back and forth. This was something Zhu Yanyi could not forgive herself for.

Zhu Yanyi respected the elderly, probably because she had grown up around elders like Medicine Elder Xie Zhong. So, she respected all elders. "I’m sorry, Mr. Wu. I’ve been busy these days and forgot to contact you."

Seeing Zhu Yanyi like this, Wu Han smiled. "Little Master, there is no need to feel guilty. I know you are not used to our appearance, but we Wu family people keep our promises."
