Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 2031: Chapter 2031: Could He Be a Member of the Imperial Family?

”That’s Ju Yuqu!” Cao Renshuang whispered to Ye Haochuan.

Ye Haochuan nodded slightly, having already guessed it the moment Ju Yuqu appeared.

Ju Yuqu was indeed arrogant; while everyone tried to curry favor with him, he didn’t spare them a glance. As for the Fox-Faced Lady, he sneered at her and turned away to close his eyes.

Even so, no one around him expressed any resentment and stood obediently one position behind Ju Yuqu, looking like Ju Yuqu’s guards.

The Fox-Faced Lady appeared a bit disappointed and could only step back half a step, ending up behind Ju Yuqu.

But that half-step allowed her to see Ye Haochuan and Cao Renshuang again.

By now, the line had clearly divided into two parts. Apart from Cao Renshuang and Ye Haochuan, everyone else stood behind Ju Yuqu. So in the Fox-Faced Lady’s eyes, Ye Haochuan and Cao Renshuang stood out conspicuously.

”Pretending!” The Fox-Faced Lady snorted, scornfully addressing Ye Haochuan, ”Clearly wanting to curry favor with Young Master Ju, yet putting on a nonchalant face, trying to play hard to get?”

This statement drew many hostile glances towards Ye Haochuan and Cao Renshuang.

”Some people are just base, they want to be lowly but think others are just like them!” Cao Renshuang sneered.

Whoa, I didn’t expect this guy’s sharp tongue; it’s not any less than mine, he’s truly mastered the art of sarcasm.

Ye Haochuan chuckled to himself.

”What did you say?” The Fox-Faced Lady was furious, her veins bulging, as she gritted her teeth.

”What? Being base is one thing, but your ears aren’t working too?” Cao Renshuang laughed cheekily.

”Bastard, courting death!” The Fox-Faced Lady instantly went into a rage, intending to charge at them.

Together with her, several other cultivators stood behind Ju Yuqu. Being insulted by Cao Renshuang, they naturally felt upset.

Cao Renshuang frowned slightly but didn’t seem particularly afraid, drawing out his weapon to confront them.

”What’s going on?” A clear voice sounded from the courtyard entrance.

The voice wasn’t particularly loud but seemed to have penetrating power, causing everyone to stop in shock.

The owner of the voice was Liu Yifei, whom Ye Haochuan had met yesterday.

At this moment, Liu Yifei’s face was as emotionless as ever, with no hint of joy or anger. However, everyone knew that causing trouble here would definitely touch Liu Yifei’s bottom line.

This senior sister, whose cultivation level was indiscernible, wasn’t someone anyone dared to provoke.

Everyone stopped, and only then did Liu Yifei leisurely say: ”Follow me!”

After speaking, she turned and walked away.

Without any threats or warnings, saying something like causing any more disturbance would result in severe punishment. Yet, no one dared to act out, obediently following her.

During the earlier conflict, Ju Yuqu had kept his eyes closed, standing still, as if everything around him was completely unrelated.

Now, as it was time to leave, he naturally couldn’t keep his eyes closed. Upon opening them, deliberately or not, he glanced at Ye Haochuan and Cao Renshuang.

This glance was full of disdain and mockery.

Then, he leisurely lifted his legs and followed Liu Yifei’s steps.

The others dared not proceed before him, silently following after Ju Yuqu had gone.

Cao Renshuang and Ye Haochuan were even less hurried, only trailing at the end.

”You should be careful; that group might target you!” After everyone had left, Cao Renshuang said to Ye Haochuan with a serious expression.

Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but chuckle, saying, ”The earlier matter had nothing to do with you, yet you stood up for me, aren’t you worried about being targeted by them?”

”I just can’t stand their bully behavior!” Cao Renshuang pouted, ”Also, I really dislike Ju Yuqu.”

”Oh? Do you have a grievance with Ju Yuqu?” Ye Haochuan asked curiously.

”You think too highly of me!” Cao Renshuang smiled wryly, ”With my abilities, how could I have a grievance with him? But my father ordered me to curry favor with Ju Yuqu, which really ticks me off. Just because he ordered me, I refuse!”

”Really? Just because he’s more talented, your father values him so much and wants you to curry favor with him?” Ye Haochuan was puzzled.

”Wrong, wrong, wrong!” Cao Renshuang adopted his catchphrase to explain, ”Ju Yuqu isn’t just extraordinarily talented; his background is also exceptional. I can’t disclose specifics but I can tell you once you latch onto Ju Yuqu, you’ll definitely rise sky high.”

Whoa, this impressive, is he some royal kin or national aristocrat?

Ye Haochuan was dumbfounded.

Previously, he had been curious, even if Ju Yuqu was incredibly impressive, why were people so subservient? After all, anyone able to enter here is a Son of Heaven, each possessing their own dignity.

Now it seems, their attitude is partly due to personal reasons, and partly due to family orders.

”Since it’s your father’s order, how will you explain this to them when you return after behaving like this?” Ye Haochuan asked perplexedly.

Cao Renshuang pouted, saying, ”I don’t like currying favor with people; I prefer to make my family strong through my own efforts.

Moreover, as you saw, even if you had tried to flatter him, he’d ignore you. Even if you knelt and called him father, it would be useless, so why demean myself?”

Ye Haochuan smiled, appreciatingly patting Cao Renshuang’s shoulder, ”Well said, relying on others may be unreliable, only self-reliance is truly secure!”

While they conversed, they had already exited the courtyard, heading towards the mid-mountain area.

Before long, a large training ground appeared before them.

Though called a training ground, it was actually a Great Formation, and a Combined Formation at that. Ye Haochuan’s formation skills couldn’t decipher the purpose of this formation.

At the edge of the formation stood a lean man with his hands behind his back.

Once everyone had settled, he slowly turned around, a sharp light in his eyes captivating their souls, discouraging any stray thoughts.

”This is Ge Ping, the third senior brother of Half-Mountain Residence’s fourth generation. He values fairness and justice most; it’s said even if the Manor Master commits an unfair act, he would straightforwardly advise against it,” Cao Renshuang explained quietly to Ye Haochuan.

Having met four members of Half-Mountain Residence, Ye Haochuan found each exceptionally distinct, each one a standout in the outside world.

Ye Haochuan finally understood why Half-Mountain Residence held such intimidating power in Shuanghua County. These individuals’ abilities were extraordinary.

It makes sense; with one-in-a-million existence, how could they be ordinary?

Unconsciously, Ye Haochuan developed a strong interest in the people of Half-Mountain Residence.
