AST 1927 - Only Treatment, No Connection

Qing Shui had a sensitive spiritual sense . Thus, he could distinctly feel the slightest greed in the Little Prince’s expression . It was subtle yet very intense . This further strengthened Qing Shui’s feeling, but he appeared calm and easy while leading Little Prince and Cheng Yuan to the living room .

The women did not enter, three of them took the host and the guest seats respectively . Qing Shui did not invite him to sit on the Chief seat, but it was not because Qing Shui doubted the Little Prince’s self-control . After all, he would be telling the Little Prince that it was fine to mess with his woman under the current situation . It was rare for someone to be able to hold back in this context .

In this case, the Little Prince had raging testosterone and strong self-control . It was only a matter of will . Besides, the women around Qing Shui were so alluring and charming to the extent of overthrowing the city and disastrous to the country . That was one of the main reasons .

If Qing Shui had a higher status and strength than the Little Prince, then the Little Prince would not dream of his women .

The Little Prince thought Qing Shui was weaker, lower ranked, and less good-looking than himself . As for age, the Little Prince was still young, there was not much difference between several ten years and a hundred years, so he thought Qing Shui was no match for himself . Plus, Qing Shui was about to treat the Barbarian Emperor . That gave the Little Prince a solid reason too .

Subconsciously, the Little Prince’s intention to murder Qing Shui conquered his mind . He was currently looking for the slightest opportunity to execute it .

“Little Prince, old man, what do you come here for?” Qing Shui smiled at Cheng Yuan .

“Little Brother Qing Shui, please just call me Elder Brother, it is awkward listening to the word ‘old man’,” Cheng Yuan replied casually . Qing Shui was surprised to see this side of the righteous Master of the Great Confucian .

“Alright then, Elder Brother,” Qing Shui did not focus on this issue . The Little Prince’s existence alarmed Qing Shui, though Cheng Yuan was the Master of Great Confucian, Qing Shui would not loosen his guard even for a person with strong integrity . The Little Prince gave out a threatening aura now .

Cheng Yuan was the follower of the Little Prince, he would definitely obey to the Little Prince’s order .

“We are here to ask about the Barbarian Emperor’s illness, we care about him a lot,” said the Little Prince with a smile . He looked at Qing Shui as if watching a junior with his powerful aura and judgy manner .

It was not inappropriate for the Little Prince to do so at his current identity and age, but Qing Shui was unhappy knowing the Little Prince’s motive . Qing Shui could not help but sneered silently seeing that a person like Little Prince acted pretentiously in front of him . However, he did not show any dissatisfaction on his face .

At this moment, Qing Shui was full of thoughts . He saw something fishy through the Little Prince’s calm inquiry . The Little Prince was apparently concerned about the Barbarian Emperor’s illness, but his exaggerated expression enabled Qing Shui to grasp the unusual reason behind it . As the saying went, one would be emotionally disturbed if an issue would affect him personally . Perhaps that was how Qing Shui captured the minor changes in the Little Prince’s expression .

“The Barbarian Emperor’s illness is bizarre, it is probably in his brain . There is probably something in his brain,” Qing Shui said seriously after thinking .

Qing Shui pondered before saying it . In fact, the reply was not wrong, any doctor with a good reputation would be able to diagnose it .

The Little Prince was not worried about the diagnosis, all he cared about was the ability of the doctor to cure it .

“I wonder if Doctor Qing could cure the Barbarian Emperor then?” the Little Prince raised his cup to tea and had a sip .

Qing Shui was immersed in his thoughts, looking difficult . By accident, he saw the tightly-frowned forehead of Cheng Yuan . At once, Qing Shui knew his answer . However, everything was just his assumption . Slowly, he said, “It’s difficult!”

Qing Shui’s reply startled the Little Prince who was expecting a direct answer of ‘yes’ or ‘no’ . Nevertheless, that answer made his heart skip a beat . His intention of murder was obvious enough now since the answer was ‘difficult’ instead of ‘no’ .

Qing Shui felt the dreadful threat instantly . However, the threatening sense came and disappeared in split seconds . Another person might perceive it as an illusion, but Qing Shui could almost confirm his previous assumption via his observation and the message from the Little Prince .

“Mr . Qing, you are young and talented . Are you interested to become our imperial doctor?” The Little Prince smiled at Qing Shui, looking natural . After all, that offer was a symbol of peace in the societal norms .

In the Great Confucian Empire, the highest rank for the doctors was the imperial doctor . Besides having a respectful position, the imperial doctor could have great wealth and honor . They were allowed to use all the imperial precious herbs . The imperial doctor could enjoy a great fortune and was the dream position of every doctor .

In the Little Prince’s opinion, Qing Shui would never reject such a good offer . After all, he could have the entire Great Confucian Empire as a back up once he accepted the offer . The imperial doctor could be labeled since he had a massive power and superb connection .

Once Qing Shui agreed to be the imperial doctor in his own palace, he could make Qing Shui stop treating the Barbarian Emperor . Anyhow, Qing Shui would share the same interests as himself . By that time, he would have many ways to snatch Qing Shui’s women one by one .

“There is an order from my master that prohibits me from becoming an imperial doctor and getting involved in any competition of forces . Only treatment, no connection,” Qing Shui rejected the Little Prince with a smile .

Qing Shui’s statement was rather useful . It was one practical way that he commonly used . As an outstanding person of his age, the master who cultivated him would be no easy to handle . This would make some old monsters consider twice before touching Qing Shui .

The Little Prince’s body stiffened, he never expected that Qing Shui would turn him down . It was a rare and surprising opportunity for others . Being the upperclassman for long, the Little Prince was furious at once . He wanted to keep Qing Shui alive, but since this fellow was unappreciative, he could only make Qing Shui vanish .

“Mr . Qing, why don’t you reconsider, I’m sincere,” The Little Prince kept silent for a second and asked .

“I am thankful for your favoritism, Little Prince . I am a doctor who treats illness and saves lives . I don’t want to get in troubles or restrictions,” Qing Shui replied in a humble tone .

Cheng Yuan looked at Qing Shui, saying, “Little Brother, you won’t get restricted as the imperial doctor in the palace, it will only benefit you . ”

Qing Shui stared at Cheng Yuan, understanding that one could be a villain too despite having Nature Energy . Furthermore, it was not about a good and bad person, it was about serving one’s master and team . They should not be blamed for this .

The Little Prince looked highly upon Cheng Yuan and the rest, most of the State Masters in the Great Confucian Empire belonged to his own team . For sure, there were some who belonged to none, they were now grouped under the State Master Hall and the Great Confucian Empire . There were a lot of them whose actual teams were unknown .

“I am used to being idle, Elder Brother, please don’t make it difficult for me . ”

“Young man, do you know that a doctor who saves lives can get himself killed too,” The Little Prince raised his head to look at Qing Shui . His eyes were as deep as the water, giving out a sense of creepy coldness .
