Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1399: Chapter 1399: Qiu Family Prepares to Apologize

It could be said that there is something bizarre about Ye Luo at every turn!

Once this news was confirmed, the Family Head of the Qiu Family dared not act rashly.

From the information proactively provided by the Yibao Commerce Guild, it was clear that they were warning the Qiu Family!

...

”Tie up that rebellious son for me!”

One day, the Family Head of the Qiu Family suddenly returned home and went straight to the third son’s room, and without a word commanded his capture.

”Father, why, why are you tying me up!”

The surprise from the third son was unparalleled; these past few days, he had exhausted every means to have his father avenge him, to no avail, and yet today, he was unexpectedly bound by his own father.

Yet who knew, the Family Head of the Qiu Family paid him no heed and directly led him towards the Cloud Manor.

Intentionally or not, the Qiu Family Head conspicuously had his servants carry dozens of boxes of gifts towards the Yun Family.

It’s known that these items could have been easily carried away hidden inside the Qiankun Ring, but the Qiu Family chose to have people carry them openly and flamboyantly towards the Yun Family.

Seeing the third son tied up and the boxes of gifts, anyone aware of the conflict between Ye Luo and the third son understood what the Qiu Family intended to do.

But it was precisely because they understood that they were all the more shocked.

With the Family Head of the Qiu Family leading the way, they did not move swiftly, hence in a short period, they drew the watchful eyes of countless people onto the Yun Family.

Across from the Yun Family, in a tea house, master and servant were savoring tea in a private room.

”Master, why would the Qiu Family do this? The old Master ordered us to come here to covertly help that youngster named Ye Luo, and he only mentioned that ensuring his survival would suffice. But it seems that we’ve come here in vain!”

”Indeed, we’ve come in vain, yet at the same time, we have not. My father hopes to find an opportunity to subdue that boy. This time he offended the Qiu Family, which would have been a good opportunity, but unexpectedly, he actually found a way to make the Qiu Family Head admit his mistakes willingly! It seems that subduing that boy will not be so simple. After this, it’s likely that his arrival in the Imperial Capital can no longer be concealed!”

Another voice arose, evidently discussing Ye Luo.

Elsewhere, a few people were also in a discussion.

”Ye Luo has come to the Imperial Capital? That’s quite surprising. The boy has an extraordinary background and his talent is monstrous. If he could be employed by our sect, it would undoubtedly grant our sect a considerable boost in strength. According to our investigation, this youngster appeared suddenly, without any signs, and did not use Teleportation or any other methods. It’s as if he just popped out of nowhere! To possess such means is a testament to his complexity!”

”Indeed, those who saw this young man when he first appeared have all died, fortunately, we were still able to unearth this clue. Now, we just don’t know where he truly comes from.”

”Don’t worry about where he comes from. Set up immediately, regardless of the method used, we must take this youngster under our wing. If he cannot be turned to our use, hmph, then kill him—it would also serve as a blow to the Li Family’s Royal Family!”

...

One by one, the powers all turned their attention to Ye Luo, perhaps, it was the initial wild speculation of the Yibao Commerce Guild that led others to speculate as well.

Ye Luo’s identity, astonishingly, has drawn the concern of all the powers in the Imperial Capital!

Yun Liancheng and Ye Luo were, at this time, at the Yun Family studying how to enter the Martial Realm.

Now that the Yun Family had fallen, it wouldn’t be easy for Yun Liancheng to reach out to the Imperial Family to heal Nalan Chen’s injuries.

Therefore, joining the Royal Academy might well be a good solution.

It was precisely for this reason that Ye Luo would comply with Yun Liancheng’s arrangements, not stepping out of the house in the past days, and quietly studying the preparation for the examination of the Royal Academy at home!

This was, of course, also to increase the chances of entering the Royal Academy.

However, the methods of assessment at the Royal Academy varied with each session, and drawing on experience from previous assessments proved to be a rather tricky affair.

Suddenly, just as the two of them were discussing, a house servant rushed in quickly.

”Young Master, Young Master, people from the Qiu Family have arrived!”

The servant appeared somewhat nervous; after all, compared to the failing Yun Family, the Qiu Family was like a colossal giant!

Had the people from the Qiu Family finally come? Could it be that they were here to apprehend Ye Luo?

Yun Liancheng was shocked at the thought, but Ye Luo calmly asked the house servant, ”How many people have come, and do you know their intentions?”

”About dozens of people from the Qiu Family have come. As for their purpose, this servant doesn’t know for sure, but the people from the Qiu Family did bring many gifts. They are now standing politely outside the door, waiting for my announcement to enter!”

The Qiu Family being so amiable and waiting outside the door?

Since when did the Qiu Family become so knowledgeable in the courtesies and protocol?

Especially when dealing with the Yun Family?

Ye Luo and Yun Liancheng subconsciously exchanged glances, both detecting the puzzlement in each other’s eyes.

”Brother Yun, regardless of their intentions, we won’t know unless we see them. Let’s go, we’ll understand what this is all about once we’re there!”

”Mm, Brother Ye speaks sensibly. No matter how arrogant the Qiu Family may be, they surely cannot be intending to forcefully take someone from our Yun Family. Let’s go and see!”

Having said that, the two headed out together.

By now, the vicinity of Cloud Manor was already crowded with many onlookers, as everyone was puzzled as to why the Qiu Family was showing such courtesy towards the Yun Family.

The dozen or so gift boxes from the Qiu Family were intentionally left unsealed by any formation, meaning that anyone with the slightest cultivation could tell that the contents of those gift boxes were by no means ordinary.

As the Family Head of the Yun Family, Yun Liancheng naturally stepped forward to meet the Family Head of the Qiu Family, while Ye Luo merely stood quietly behind, watching.

”Yun Liancheng, pays his respects to Elder Master Qiu!”

Yun Liancheng greeted the Family Head of the Qiu Family with proper respect. Since Yun Liancheng had a nobility title without an official rank, it was natural to not be overly serious, and a simple exchange of greetings was sufficient.

”May I ask what matters bring Elder Master Qiu to our Cloud Manor this time?”

Perhaps due to concerns about Ye Luo, Yun Liancheng did not invite the Family Head of the Qiu Family inside, but rather stood at the doorstep and asked.

If it had been any other time, or any other place, Yun Liancheng daring to show such disrespect to the Qiu Family would have been akin to courting death.

However, what was strange today was that not only did the Family Head of the Qiu Family not get angry, but instead, he even addressed Yun Liancheng with a smile.

”My unworthy offspring has been reckless. If there’s been any offense towards you two gentlemen, please accept my apologies. May I know if Young Master Ye Luo is present? Today, I have come specifically to present my son’s apologies!”

Apology!

The Qiu Family had actually come to apologize!

What on earth was going on? Instantly, countless whispers of speculation erupted amongst the onlookers.

The people found it hard to accept this outcome; in their minds, they initially thought that trouble was brewing for the Yun Family. Even though the crates of gifts had caught everyone’s attention, they never expected such a result!
