Divine Doctor's Harem



Upon hearing Wang Chao's words, Zhang Long's expression brightened. He took a sip of tea, furrowed his brows, and tried hard to recall the events surrounding his sister-in-law's illness.

After careful recollection for about five minutes, he slapped his thigh and said in a deep voice, "I remember now. My sister-in-law contracted the illness a while after returning from a trip."

"Where did they travel to?"

"It was so long ago. Let me think."

Zhang Long pondered for a moment, then his eyes widened, and he suddenly stood up, his expression filled with astonishment. He muttered to himself, "No, it can't be."

"Did you remember something?" Wang Chao asked.

Zhang Long's expression became unusually serious as he looked at Wang Chao and said, "The place my elder brother and sister-in-law traveled to was the territory of the Miao ethnic group."

"If we go by what you said, Shen Feng's coma might be caused by an invisible creature inside his brain."

"It's highly possible that my sister-in-law was infected with a Gu when she was in the Miao territory."

"This Gu parasite remained inside her, considering her as the primary host. When she gave birth to Shen Feng, the Gu insect transferred to him, completing the transfer."

"Shen Feng is the second host of that Gu insect!"

"Wang Chao, you're right. There might indeed be an invisible Gu insect in Shen Feng's brain."

Wang Chao furrowed his brows slightly but remained silent, watching Zhang Long attentively.

Zhang Long's statement indicated that he must have known about something related to this matter.

Indeed, Zhang Long's face darkened, and after taking a sip of tea, he said in a deep voice, "To my knowledge, the local Miao ethnic group has an advanced Gu insect called 'Deicide Gu.' It's highly mysterious, and no one knows what it looks like."

"Once the Gu insect matures, it possesses a terrifying killing power. It is said to be capable of killing gods!"

"The Miao territory my elder brother and sister-in-law visited is supposedly the place where the 'Deicide Gu' can be cultivated."

"They had mentioned some unpleasant incidents happening there, which led them to return ahead of schedule."

"And several months later, my sister-in-law fell ill."

After recounting the story, Zhang Long couldn't help but blame himself, saying, "I should have thought of this much earlier. Why didn't I realize it was a Gu insect?"

He pounded his chest and stomped his feet in remorse.

Wang Chao, upon hearing this, raised an eyebrow and said, "Where is that place? I want to see it."

Zhang Long shook his head and replied, "That place has been demolished and replaced with a real estate development. It is said that when the residents of the village were relocated, they mysteriously disappeared or died. Even the workers involved in the demolition met with strange deaths. Many bizarre incidents occurred."

"This event caused a national sensation, with many people claiming that there were evil forces at work in that place."

"Afterward, the owner of the real estate development brought in a group of Taoist priests to exorcise the evil spirits, creating quite a spectacle."

"Strangely enough, after the exorcism, no more strange incidents occurred."

"If you were to go there now, you would only see modern buildings. It would be almost impossible to find the Gu insects or the people who used to cultivate them."

Upon hearing Wang Chao's words, he immediately grasped the most important point and said in a deep voice, "There was a problem with those Taoist priests who exorcised the evil!"

Zhang Long's eyes widened as he realized something. He slapped his thigh once again and said in a deep voice, "Why didn't I think of that? Wang Chao, you're truly our lucky star."

"Wait here for a moment. I'll send someone to investigate right away."

After saying that, he quickly rushed out, filled with excitement.

Considering the strange occurrences and the claims of sinister forces at work, as well as the subsequent cessation of those incidents after the exorcism, it indicated two possibilities. Firstly, the Taoist priests possessed genuine abilities and successfully subdued the evil forces. Secondly, those Taoist priests themselves might have caused those strange incidents, acting as thieves and then taking the opportunity to make money and disappear.

Regardless of the possibility, it was certain that those Taoist priests held valuable information. Finding them might reveal the details of the calamity that befell Shen Pengtao and his wife, and perhaps even provide a solution.

This was why Zhang Long was so excited and immediately went out to investigate.

"To reach the Miao territory, it takes a two-hour flight. The chances of finding those individuals from back then within seven days are extremely slim."

Wang Chao finished his tea, lit a cigarette, and his eyes deepened.

A Gu insect, huh?

And its name, "Deicide Gu," sounded particularly ominous and domineering!

This indicated that this Gu insect was no ordinary creature.

It was more interesting than he had imagined!

"Whether it is or not, we'll find out once we arrive in the Baiying Country," Wang Chao thought to himself.

Just at that moment, Zhao Yihuan walked in, her eyes swollen, clearly from crying for a long time.

"What happened?" Wang Chao looked at her with a puzzled expression.

Slap!

With red eyes, Zhao Yihuan walked up to Wang Chao and suddenly struck him hard across the face.

Wang Chao was taken aback by the sudden attack.

Before he could say anything, Zhao Yihuan threw herself into his arms, hugging him tightly as if he would disappear if she let go.

At the same time, she sobbed uncontrollably, her body trembling, unable to speak.

Large tears streamed down her face, wetting Wang Chao's clothes.

"Uh!"

Wang Chao was slightly stunned, unsure of what to do. All he could say was, "I'm sorry, it happened suddenly, and I didn't have time to inform you."

He knew that Zhao Yihuan, just like Liu Yifei, was feeling heartbroken over his fake death.

This time, the fake death happened too abruptly and involved a wide range of scenes. He could not tell too many people in advance to avoid disrupting the plan.

So, he truly felt sorry for those who cared about him.

Before he could continue speaking, Zhao Yihuan suddenly looked up, cupped Wang Chao's face with her hands, and kissed him tearfully.

Wang Chao's eyes widened.

What's going on?

Why is she kissing someone out of the blue?

What's happening?!

He quickly pushed Zhao Yihuan away and said, "Yihuan, what are you doing?"

Zhao Yihuan, with teary eyes, looked at Wang Chao and said, "Wang Chao, you jerk! How could you deceive people in such a manner?"

"Do you know how heartbroken I was when I thought you were dead!?"

"Can you not do this again in the future?"

Her eyes were bloodshot, and tears fell like broken pearls, crying so pitifully that it was hard not to feel sympathy.

Seeing her like this, Wang Chao's heart softened. He wiped away her tears and said, "This matter truly happened suddenly, and I did not have time to inform you, causing you to worry."

"But rest assured, the situation has been resolved, and I won't do something like this again."

"Remember one thing: Your master is invincible. As long as I do not desire to die, there is no one in this world who can kill me."
