My Evil Imperial Wife is Too Arrogant

Lou Mu Yan was slightly surprised. So that cheap Senior Brother of hers was actually number one on the Rising Soul Stele!

Seeing her surprise, Old Man Tian Xuan continued with a smile: “With his strength, he should have been able to advance to a Sword Saint a year ago, and only because the Land of Inheritance is going to open that he’s suppressing his cultivation base. With him, your safety should have some guarantee.”

“I prefer to hold my life in my own hands.” Lou Mu Yan shrugged and replied confidently.

“You stinky girl, you sure have a stubborn brain. Do you know what Senior Brothers are used for?” Old Man Tian Xuan asked Lou Mu Yan as he knocked her on her forehead.

Lou Mu Yan noticed a slight aura exuded nearby. She blinked and said with a smile: “I only know that Ancestors are used to extort, so Master, why don’t you tell me what Senior Brother is used for.”

“Senior Brother is obviously used to be exploited. When someone’s chasing you, the role of the Senior Brother is to act as a meat shield to help you.” Old Man Tian Xuan smiled and said with a smug look: “Stinky girl, now you know the benefit of having a Senior Brother right.”

The corner of Lou Mu Yan’s lips twitched. Was it really alright for cheap Master to be so straightforward?

Then she chucked lightly, raised her head, and said to the clear and handsome man who suddenly appeared behind Old Man Tian Xuan: “Senior Brother, take care of me in the future.”

The man who walked over had a slight smile in his eyes and nodded: “Junior Sister, take care of me too!”

Ancestor Tian Xuan glared at the man who appeared and said: “You little bastard knows to come back now!”

“I know that Master misses Disciple, so I came back.” The man sat down between the two of them on a stone chair and said with a light smile.

Old Man Tian Xuan rolled his eyes at him, “This old man now has a girl to take care of me, you unscrupulous bastard can go scram.”

“If Master said that, then I’d be sad.” The man covered his mouth and coughed a few times.

Lou Mu Yan looked at the two with amusement, and only then did she realise that her cheap Master’s high and mighty-looking appearance was all a farce. He was actually just an old naughty child as well.

The man turned to look at Lou Mu Yan and said with a smile: “Junior Sister, my name is Su Jin.”

“Senior Brother, my name is Lou Mu Yan.” Lou Mu Yan nodded and said with a smile.

“Junior Sister’s exalted name has long reverberated I my ears like thunder. I already knew you were Lou Mu Yan.” The smile on Su Jin’s face was very shallow, but there was no distance, and instead gave people a sense of affection.

“Cough cough…” Su Jin couldn’t help coughing for a while after he finished speaking.

Old Man Tian Xuan asked with worries: “Your illness surfaced again?”

“Master, I’m fine.” Su Jin’s originally pale face turned a little red from the coughing.

When she saw Su Jin just now, Lou Mu Yan found that her Senior Brother was actually ill, and was seriously ill.

Su Jin’s appearance was very smooth and gentle, and there was a sense of elegance that he exuded. His frowns and smiles revealed a noble and otherworldly temperament. From a distance, he looked like a beautiful man who walked out of a painting.

However, his face was pale, and his body was a little thin, making him look weaker than a normal man.

“Can I take Senior Brother’s pulse?” After taking Old Man Tian Xuan as her Master, and now with a Senior Brother, she didn’t want to treat the two of them as outsiders.

Su Jin was stunned, then an elegant arc overflowed from his lips, and he stretched out a wrist and said: “Junior Sister, please.”

“Do you believe me that much Senior Brother?” Lou Mu Yan jokingly reached out and touched his wrist.

“I only have Master, this one family member, in this entire world. Now that Junior Sister’s also Master’s disciple, then you will become my second family member in the future. I naturally believe in Junior Sister.” Su Jin smiled lightly.

Lou Mu Yan was dazed for a moment. She didn’t expect Su Jin to say such words.

Looking up, his eyes were clear and bright, like a clear spring that could be seen to the bottom at a glance. He was serious.

“Sure! Then I’ll be Senior Brother’s second member of family.” Lou Mu Yan smiled sweetly.

The relations between people were just that strange. Sometimes, even in a lifetime, one might not look pleasing to the eye, but some people could hit it off at first sight.

She felt this way about Su Jin right now.

When Old Man Tian Xuan heard the words of the two, he couldn’t help revealing a smile of relief.

After a while, Lou Mu Yan retracted her hand, her face stained with a bit of solemnity, “Senior Brother’s chronic illness was brought from the womb. The Heavens gave Senior Brother perfect talent, but you’ve also suffered from this illness since childhood.”

Su Jin’s indifferent eyes were still without ripples, “Yeah! So I can’t blame others.”

Old Man Tian Xuan knew about Su Jin’s illness for a long time. He once even sent Su Jin to the Grand Elder of the Medicine Sect, a Grade 7 Alchemist, to seek treatment, but the answer he obtained was that he was helpless.

“Senior Brother, don’t you think that one day you could be cured?” Lou Mu Yan took out a jar of spiritual tea, brewed a pot of Honey Tea, and poured a cup for the both of them.

Su Jin smiled bitterly: “If it can be cured, I naturally want it to be, but the chance is very slim.”

“Lou girl, are you a physician?” Old Man Tian Xuan knew that Lou Mu Yan was a Grade 6 Alchemist, but he didn’t expect that she was also a physician. But he didn’t have much hope either, “The Grand Elder of the Medicine Sect also took a look at your Senior Brother’s illness, but he said that it could only be controlled but not cured.”

Lou Mu Yan nodded. She smelled a light medicinal fragrance from Su Jin’s body, which was different from the medicine fragrance on her body that came from refining pills. This was caused by taking medicine all year round.

“About the medicine used to control it that Grand Elder gave to Senior Brother, are the main ingredients the Ice Lotus grown in the Millennium Snow Pond, the Nine Bends Ginseng…” Lou Mu Yan slowly listed a string of spiritual herb names.

Even the eyes of Old Man Tian Xuan revealed shock. These spiritual herbs were the main ingredients they sent to the Medicine Sect’s Grand Elder to refine the pills to nourish his body.

“Girl, how did you know?”

Lou Mu Yan replied truthfully: “First, I smelled it from Senior Brother’s body, and second, I judged it myself. After all, since the pill needs to nourish Senior Brother’s body, then only these spiritual herbs would be useful.”

“Girl, can you cure this illness?” Old Man Tian Xuan couldn’t help asking. Even if there was only slight hope, but he couldn’t give up.

Lou Mu Yan nodded: “I can.”

She had seen a person like Su Jin who could absorb Spiritual Force of Heaven and earth in the mother’s womb to create innate talent, but their bodies were abnormally weak—and because of a deal, she had studied the cause of that person’s illness for a decade, finally combining the laws of the pill classics and refined a pill to cure that person.

“What?” Old Man Tian Xuan asked in a somewhat excited tone: “You can really cure Su Jin’s illness? How confident are you?”

Su Jin who was originally calm, couldn’t help but show a glimmer of hope in his eyes. Even though he had developed an indifferent and solitary temperament for more than two decades, but who would want themselves to be a short-lived person.

“I once saw a similar condition to that of Senior Brother’s in a medical manual. If a special pill could be refined, it can be cured. I have at least more than sixty percent confidence.” Lou Mu Yan was actually completely confident. After all, that pill was the pill formula she developed when she was in the Spiritual World.

That person’s condition was much more serious than Su Jin’s, and his age had also passed the best period for healing, but still recovered, so she had absolute confidence in curing Su Jin.

Note: Sorry for the late post! Who knew the beginning of Term 4 would be that busy, I didn’t leave school until almost 6pm HAHA
