Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor

"This... this, Vice Captain Yan, why are you suddenly asking this? Xian Yu and I are not yet married; I am often away and have promised to marry her when I return next year. We are both very innocent," Liu Hao said with great difficulty.

"Then the identity of the suspect is very clear. It is the father of the unborn child in Miss Xian Yu's belly," Yun Sheng said, and Liu Hao looked as if he had been struck by lightning.

The parents of Xian Yu all changed their expressions drastically.

Cheng Sihai was dumbfounded and Qi Fangfei was also shocked.

However, Ye Beiming had a knowing smile on his lips and nodded approvingly at Yun Sheng.

"You wicked woman, how dare you tarnish my daughter's reputation," Xian Yu's mother said with eyes going dark and fainting, while Xian Yu's father was furious and stepped forward to fight Yun Sheng desperately.

Liu Hao's face was gloomy, and his voice suddenly turned cold, "Vice Captain Yan, if you cannot give a reasonable explanation, even if I am no match for you, I will fight you with my life today."

"I'm not talking nonsense. Just now, when I was checking on Xian Yu, I noticed that her abdomen was slightly protruding. When pressed with a finger, the abdomen did not sink in. Now, take another look at Miss Xian Yu's figure; her limbs are all very slim," Yun Sheng observed very carefully.

In Great Zhou, ordinary people, influenced by the martial culture of Great Zhou, even ordinary women who do not practice martial arts like to wear a modified version of the narrow-sleeved, narrow-waisted Hu-style dress.

But what Xian Yu wore in the coffin was a loose-sleeved, waist-free Luo skirt.

That's why ordinary people wouldn't notice anything unusual about her waist and abdomen.

"Just based on clothing alone, how can you prove that she was pregnant? There are many women on the streets who like loose-sleeved Luo skirts; are they also pregnant?" Qi Fangfei raised her eyebrows slightly, having some objections to Yun Sheng's words.

"A simple autopsy of the abdomen will reveal the truth. The fetus inside Miss Xian Yu has bones and flesh; it can be no less than four months old," Yun Sheng's words were prophetic.

Autopsy of the abdomen!

At Yun Sheng's words, even Yun Canglang, Ye Beiming, and others couldn't help but change their expressions.

Performing a second autopsy on the deceased was already a big deal, and for Yun Sheng to suggest an autopsy of the abdomen, such an act was simply unheard of on Wuji Continent.

"Absurd, are you even a doctor? I have never heard of an autopsy to remove a child; you are not fit to be a doctor," Cheng Sihai, having finally caught Yun Sheng's vulnerability, mocked jeeringly.

"Cheng Sihai, as a doctor, you can't even tell whether someone is pregnant or not. You are the one truly acting unscrupulously as a doctor," Yun Sheng knew that speaking about this matter would inevitably attract public criticism; in this era, desecrating a corpse was a punishable offense.

That is why she did not want to disclose that Xian Yu was six months pregnant.

"Right, we can't let her desecrate our daughter's body," Xian Yu's mother continued crying uncontrollably.

"Silence, all of you silence," Liu Hao roared like an angry lion, and as he shouted, everyone who was in an uproar fell quiet.

"Yan Yun, I ask you once again, are you sure... Xian Yu was pregnant?" If what Yun Sheng said was true, four months ago, Xian Yu had not been violated by Tang Yu, and the child in her womb was not his, then the adulterer would indeed be the most suspect.

Although an autopsy was shocking and unacceptable to society, if they did not proceed, the person who killed Xian Yu might get away with it.

"Uncle and Aunt," Liu Hao knelt down in front of the two grief-stricken old people, "It is my fault for not taking good care of Xian Yu. I promise you, if today it is found that Xian Yu is not pregnant, I, Liu Hao, am willing to marry her and honor her for a hundred years as my wife. If Xian Yu is found to be pregnant, I am also willing to take her as my sworn sister, and next year during Qingming and Chongyang festivals, I will worship her with the rites due to a family member."

After he spoke, he kowtowed three times to the two elders.

Liu Hao's actions brought tears to the eyes of the two elders, and finally, the two of them nodded their agreement.

"Both of you, I also promise that if my judgment this time is wrong and tarnishes Miss Xian Yu's reputation, I am willing to accept Great Zhou's punishment and will never serve as a doctor again," Yun Sheng stated resolutely.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Sihai's expression was filled with shock and uncertainty; in fact, he really couldn't tell if Xian Yu was pregnant. When he examined her earlier, he relied solely on his hands and eyes for observation.

Cheng Sihai did not know that even if Grandmaster Wen came in person, he could not guarantee he would be able to definitively determine whether Xian Yu was pregnant.

Because the living and the dead are different. Even if a corpse is protected by a Magic Array that prevents superficial decay, the internal organs and skin elasticity still undergo certain changes.

Moreover, the doctors on the Wuji Continent, especially those from the Medicine Emperor Pavilion, are mostly focused on studying elixirs, and their understanding of human anatomy is merely at the superficial level of traditional Chinese medicine's diagnostic methods of inspection, auscultation, and palpation.

But Yun Sheng is different. She has studied Western medicine and possesses two unique abilities: Shennong's Eyes and Yanling's Hand.

Her abilities are beyond what any common doctor on the Wuji Continent can compare to.

Although her Shennong's Eyes have not yet reached the Third Level, which would allow her to use Inner Vision to see a person's internal organs, she is capable of observing the most subtle details that others fail to notice.

Her hands are dozens of times more sensitive than that of an average person.

What others cannot confirm, she can accurately determine by combining the use of her eyes and hands.

"However..." Yun Sheng suddenly changed her tone, "If everything I said just now is true, then shouldn't Doctor Cheng, who has insulted me just now, also be held accountable? You made a mistake in the autopsy first, and then insulted other doctors afterward. With such ethics and conduct, how can you still be a doctor?"

Cheng Sihai was left speechless by the question. Once words are spoken, like water they cannot be unsaid, and now he could only hope that Qi Fangfei would protect him.

Qi Fangfei, stared down by Yun Sheng's challenge, wore a grave expression and said, "If it's proven that what you said is true, we at the Medicine Emperor Pavilion will deal with Cheng Sihai, making him hand over his Doctor's Token and forbidding him from practicing medicine for life."

What a cunning little girl. Just now she insisted, in front of everyone, putting forth a strong statement, but it was just to force me to make a similar promise.

Qi Fangfei had the feeling of being led by the nose; from the initial autopsy to the simulation and then convincing Xian Yu's parents, the whole process, seemingly coerced, was all meticulously controlled by that little girl with a well-thought-out plan.

In the Medicine Emperor Pavilion, Qi Fangfei held a high status and was accustomed to others following her orders, but today it was the other way around.

This made her very annoyed, yet she couldn't vent her anger on Yun Sheng.

"Good," Yun Sheng's eyes flashed as she took out her scalpel.

Upon seeing Yun Sheng's unique tool, the onlookers did not show much surprise.

But Cheng Sihai and Qi Fangfei had never seen such a tool before.

The sharp edge of the scalpel glided across Xian Yu's pale abdomen, and her parents choked back sobs, turning their heads away.

Tang Yu, seeing the blurred mess of blood and flesh, felt nauseous and leaned over the wall to vomit.

Seeing his grandson in such a pathetic state, Yun Bahe looked even more displeased.
