Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The aura surrounding Su Binglan differed from her usual one. She felt oppressive as the needle in her hand pierced into the assassin’s head. Then she stared into his eyes and said, “Tell me who you are and who sent you.”
The man’s eyes lost focus, and he could not help but answer her, “We’re from the Assassin Pavilion. Ah!”
He was about to tell Su Binglan who had sent them, but countless hidden weapons shot out of nowhere. Su Binglan wanted to protect her brother as quickly as possible, so the man she was interrogating died in this moment of distraction.
Su Binglan was furious and wanted to kill the person who had attacked them with the hidden weapons. However, she also realized there were people in this world who could hide their presence. Even she did not notice them just now.
Perhaps she had neglected that person because she focused all her attention on her brother. She was about to give chase when Lan Ruozhu started coughing violently. “Cough cough…” Everyone panicked. “Master!” “Your Majesty!’
‘Quickly call Doctor Shen.”
Doctor Shen was a disciple of the Legendary Medicine Valley, a legendary existence in this world. Blue Eagle was the one who found him and brought him back to stabilize Lan Ruozhu’s condition. That was why Lan Ruozhu could hold on for so long.
Doctor Shen was with them, but Lan Ruozhu had sent him to treat the injured commoners. Hence, it would take some time for him to return.
However, Su Binglan quickly approached her brother. She could not bear seeing him cough like he would cough up all his internal organs. Still, the
Shadow Guards were puzzled about why the young lady had helped them. They kept their guard up and did not allow Su Binglan to get close to their master. Suddenly, Lan Ruozhu waved and said, “M-Move aside. She’s…”
‘My younger twin sister.’
Lan Ruozhu believed Su Binglan was his twin that had reincarnated into someone else’s body. He wanted to say it, but they were in the county, and he did not know if people in the dark were listening.
He coughed again before continuing, “T-That’s an order.”
Su Binglan felt gratified looking at the Shadow Guards protecting her brother so well. She knew her teachings as Lan Riobing did not go to waste.
“Don’t worry,” she said, “l won’t hurt him. I know medicine, so please let me take a look.”
Lan Ruozhu gazed at Su Binglan gently and excitedly. Although Su Binglan and Lan Ruobings looks differed, their demeanors were similar. He almost lost control of his emotions, and his tears threatened to fall, but he tried his best to suppress them.
He feared his tears would cause his vision to blur, and he would lose sight of his sister. He was still afraid of everything being an illusion.
Su Binglan’s heart ached when she met Lan Ruozhu’s eyes. It had been three years since she last saw him, and she did not even know if he was still alive. She knew it must have been tough for him to support the mansion alone, especially since so many people wanted to kill him.
Su Binglan was typically reserved with her emotions but could not hold them in this time and sniffed. Then she quickly checked her brother’s pulse and heaved a sigh of relief immediately after.
‘His illness isn’t as severe as I had imagined. His physical condition seems much better than three years ago, too.’
However, she knew it would be fatal if he overworked himself or if his emotions fluctuated violently. Still, she could cure her brother.
After recovering most of her memories as Su Binglan, she could cure her brother. Thinking of this made her very excited.
She took another set of acupuncture needles and started her treatment on Lan Ruozhu. The latter felt his body becoming more comfortable with the treatment and his sister’s spiritual energy.
Then he stopped coughing and felt no pain. Lan Ruozhu was shocked, especially since his sister did not possess such medical skills in the past. It was too magical, and he felt his body was much lighter.
‘The heaviness I felt before is gone, and I no longer feel pain. It’s been too long since I felt this light.’
Su Binglan glanced at her brother. and he instantly understood what she wanted to say. Before letting his sister speak, he said, “Let’s go inside and talk.
Blue One, bring in some men to stand guard.”
The rest of the Shadow Guards had to deal with the dead bodies at the door since Blue Eagle had to stay with Lan Ruozhu. After entering the study, Lan Ruozhu said, “We can talk here.’
Su Binglan got straight to the point, “Your Majesty, I can cure you.”
Lan Ruozhu and Blue Eagle were shocked when Su Binglan said that. Even people from Legendary Medicine Medicine Valley dared not make such bold claims.
However, Lan Ruozhu believed his sister’s words. He looked at Su Binglan and said smilingly, “l believe you, but don’t call me that. You’re my younger sister, right?”
He was cautious when saying this, but he choked up. He looked at Su Binglan again but with a sad and expectant gaze. He felt pained when his twin sister called him “Your Majesty.”
‘How could she call me that? I don’t want to hear that form of address from my sister.’
Su Binglan noticed Lan Ruozhu’s expression and heard his choked voice. She could not bear it. She told her brother she would return when she lived as Lan Ruobing but did not know why he could recognize her so quickly.
Lan Ruozhu anxiously said, “There’s no one else here besides Blue Eagle. He’s not an outsider. You should know him, right?”
He could be calm and collected in front of anyone except his sister. After all, she was the one he depended on for survival and was his only remaining family.
Su Binglan did not know how to answer.
Lan Ruozhu continued, “l remember you telling me to live well. Still, I could only think of revenge without my sister beside me. Only revenge kept me alive.’
Su Binglan could no longer bear to listen. She called out to him hoarsely, “Big Brother! ”
Lan Ruozhu’s eyes instantly lit up when he heard that. “Yes. Although we’re twins, you’re younger and should call me ‘big brother’ instead of Your Majesty.”‘
He felt overwhelmed with great joy at that moment. He was so excited that his speech became incoherent.
‘She really is my sister. She’s here! I wasn’t wrong!’
Even Blue Eagle’s eyes widened as he stood beside his master.
Then Su Binglan walked over and squatted beside Lan Ruozhu. She said softly, “I remember mischievously climbing trees to gather apricots when I was a kid.
You protected me from below when I fell once. There was another time when you made longevity noodles for me.
“Remember when I couldn’t sleep at night and always asked you to tell me stories? 1 told you stories sometimes, too.”
She spoke slowly about the things only she and Lan Ruozhu knew..
