Rebirth: My Healer Wife Owns Superpowers Chapter 256

Chapter 256: Chapter 256 'Good, long live the Divine Doctor!

After a short while, the Fox King, King Ye, Song Qiyun, and others entered the room and looked around incessantly.

Apparently, not seeing Qing Nanzun, their faces were full of suspicion.

Finally, King Ye Song Chengye could no longer restrain himself.

“Miss Qi Yue, where is Qing Nanzun?”

“Dead.”

Song Chengye looked around, his face riddled with doubt.

Qi Yue pointed to the frozen pond, “He must have used some evil magic and froze himself to death.”

Qing Nanzun was lying flat beneath the clear ice, his mouth wide open in a grotesque grimace of pain.

At the back of his neck, the head of a giant Immortal Bug could faintly be seen.

The people surrounding the pond were first frightened, then burst into surprised murmurs.

“What's going on here, it's the height of autumn, and it's still warm outside.”

“It's truly strange; this pond is solidly frozen, it doesn't seem like normal ice at all.”

“Didn't you hear Miss Qi Yue? Qing Nanzun used magic to freeze himself to death!”

“I think so too, Qing Nanzun really got what he deserved! He brought it upon himself!”

However, Song Yuanzhao and his son Song Chengye did not think the same.

The three of them could not help but cast their gazes towards Qi Yue but quickly withdrew them.

This subtle moment naturally did not escape Qi Yue's notice.

She wasn't surprised at all.

Not one of these three was to be trusted, each harboring his own agenda.

The words Qing Nanzun had shared with the Fox King must have also reached the ears of the Song family father and son.

After all, it was not unusual for the royal households to have spies among each other.

By their looks, they were absolutely convinced by Qing Nanzun's words.

To have her would be to rule the world?

How laughable.

She was rather curious to see what these men were planning to do next.

She was quite looking forward to it.

At that moment, several soldiers came in, carrying wood and other materials, and began to construct a pyre for burning corpses.

Others started to carry those who had been knocked unconscious by the poisoned blood.

Qi Yue watched them and instructed them to set down the people to one side.

Somehow misunderstanding her, they placed several people right on the newly constructed pyre.

There were seven people, stacked in layers upon one another…

“What are you doing?” Qi Yue asked, puzzled.

The busy soldiers immediately paused and explained, “Aren't these people all dead and died from inhaling poisoned blood? If we burn them, there should be no implications, right?”

Good heavens!

That's ruthlessly efficient! They were already starting to burn them!

Qi Yue pursed her lips.

“Hurry up and get them down, lay them flat on the ground; I'll see if I can resurrect them.”

Of course, she was very confident she could bring them back to life, but she was just teasing.

Hearing this, several soldiers exchanged glances, all looking surprised, but they quickly moved to take the bodies down.

Soon, the seven unconscious people were laid out side by side on the ground.

Qi Yue took out a silver needle and began with the one on the far end, plunging it directly into the crown of his head.

The Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles were seldom used, but once employed, they could bring even the dead back to life.

In the time it took to finish a cup of tea, the first soldier who had been unconscious for a while slowly opened his eyes.

Seeing this, everyone immediately exclaimed in shock.

“My goodness, is he really alive?”

“This silver needle is truly amazing, it can actually resurrect the dead?”

“Exactly, I had checked just now; he was truly dead.”

“Miss Qi Yue truly lives up to her reputation as a Divine Doctor!”

Qi Yue silently curled her lips, continuing to administer the needles to the next person.

Qing Nanzun's poisoned blood contained a deep anesthetic factor; upon inhalation, it immediately caused a false death by cutting off the breath. If not for her use of the Ghost Gate Needles to clear the airways, these people would have just slept away.

With this round over, her reputation as a Divine Doctor should spread, and it would be a good time to break into the pharmaceutical market!

Meanwhile, the Fox King, Song Yuanzhao, and his son Song Chengye were standing by the pond, staring at each other, all studying the abruptly formed ice.

The expressions on everyone's faces were deliberately mysterious.

Suddenly, they heard the soldiers continuously cheering.

“Great, long live the Divine Doctor!”

“Yet another life revived!”

“He's alive, he's alive!”

The three key figures exchanged glances and approached.

Just in time to see Qi Yue withdraw the needle, the soldier who had previously passed out immediately opened his eyes and sat up.

If it hadn't been for the crowd around them, the three might have thought he had turned into a zombie!

The soldier who had just awakened was also interesting, touching his face on his own and repeatedly asking, “Am I dead, am I dead?”

The surrounding soldiers enthusiastically informed him of the situation.

Upon hearing that he had died and was revived by Qi Yue,

He immediately knelt before Qi Yue and began to kowtow.

“Thank you, Miss Qi Yue, for saving my life. I have an elderly mother and a newborn child at home; you have truly saved my entire family!”

With his shout, several others who had been revived also knelt down and kowtowed.

“Thank you, Miss Qi Yue, for saving our lives; we swear to repay this debt with our lives.”

Goodness, the scene was big enough to startle Qi Yue.

She just wanted to showcase her medical skills and advertise her forthcoming medicine in the Donggao market, yet here they were, swearing to repay her unto death.

“No need, no need, it was a mere trifle.”

Seeing Qi Yue's straightforward and amiable nature, the people she saved and the onlookers were even more moved.

Excellent medical skills, good manners, beautiful as a celestial being–what kind of person wouldn't adore her?

But of course, the ordinary soldiers dared not even contemplate it.

Song Yuanzhao and Song Chengye, the two princes, looked at Qi Yue with even more fervent gazes.

The usually composed and lazy Song Qiyun couldn't stay composed anymore either, his eyes never left Qi Yue.

When the timing seemed about right, Qi Yue immediately ordered her people to fetch ice, extract the Qing Nanzun, and set it ablaze on a wooden platform.

Only when she saw the Qing Nanzun finally reduced to ashes did Qi Yue feel at ease.

She had finally rid them of this calamity.

After everything ended, the Fox King, Song Yuanzhao, offered to treat Qi Yue to a meal at Yueman Building, but she outright refused.

After a morning spent killing and saving lives, she was overly drained and needed to rest.

She had no desire to match wits with these foxes with her weary mind!

She returned to Plum Blossom Villa with Liao Ye and Zhu Ye. After giving a command, Qi Yue closed the door of her bedroom and entered her personal space.

After bathing and changing, she heard Liao Ye knocking at the door from outside.

“Miss Qi Yue, I've made your favorite vegetarian chicken, pigeon soup, steamed fish….”

Well now!

This maid seemed particularly diligent!

Qi Yue put down the milk she was holding and exited her space.

Some hot food and dishes sounded rather nice.

While eating, she heard a commotion outside, as if many people were approaching.

“Zhu Ye, go check what's going on outside; is it some sort of emissary?”

After a while, Zhu Ye returned and said that people from the palace had come to clean the Qingyu Pavilion.

“Miss Qi Yue, I've heard that ambassadors from Beiyuan will be arriving in a few days, though I'm not sure what for.”

Qi Yue silently curved her lips.

What else could it be? They must be planning to sell her!

Seeing Liao Ye hanging her head as if trying hard to conceal something, Qi Yue's heart stirred.

“Liao Ye, have you heard what it's about?”

Liao Ye quickly shook her head.

“How could a mere servant like me know of such matters? I am only here to serve you, Miss Qi Yue.”

Qi Yue smiled faintly, then looked towards Zhu Ye.

“And you, do you know?”

Zhu Ye also shook her head.

“I don't know either. I guess it's probably because some high-ranking person in the palace is having a birthday soon?”

Qi Yue put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth.

Just as she had guessed, Zhu Ye was here to throw her off track, while Liao Ye was the real spy.

Once again she sighed in her heart–'Appearances can be deceptive' is truly a profound truth!

“Alright, if there's nothing else, you may leave. Go find out when the emissary is arriving.”

“Yes, Miss Qi Yue.”

Zhu Ye and Liao Ye simultaneously responded.

Suddenly, another commotion arose outside, and Qi Yue assumed it was the people from the palace and didn't plan to attend to it. However, the noise went straight into her courtyard.
