Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

It turns out that the Murong Family that Xia Liu imagined in his heart is vastly different from reality.

The Murong Family is not like worldly families.

Although it has a grand Morning City, only the Family Head and Elders are allowed to reside there.

In the Murong Family, as long as you have a certain status, you can choose the location for building your house.

But it has to be within the designated area.

For example, the eldest daughter of the Murong Family lives in a large house near Morning City.

The second son is slightly behind, but still close to Morning City, and his courtyard is quite large as well.

The collateral members of the Murong Family live scattered around Morning City.

The most remote residence in the Murong Family belongs to Murong Yan.

This is a long story, which results in her living the furthest from Morning City, not only due to insufficient strength.

Her wits are also inferior to those of her elder sister and brother.

Thus, Murong Yan strives even harder.

Hoping one day to move closer to Morning City and amaze the family.

Before entering the Murong Family territory, there's an invisible barrier.

There are four Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators stationed at each of the four directions.

Should a strong individual intrude upon the formation, the four high-strength cultivators will be alerted instantly.

In less than three seconds, the Family Head and strong members within the family will become aware and reinforce their numbers.

It can be said, the Murong Family's security system is very well-established.

Unfortunately, their defenses only target those with cultivation below Foundation Establishment Stage.

If a Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator were to arrive, the Murong Family couldn't withstand it.

However, this world no longer has Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators, so the Murong Family need not worry about such things.

Xiaowu took Xia Liu to the Murong Family territory shortly thereafter.

Upon stepping onto the shaded avenue, Xia Liu sensed an exotic force sweeping over him.

He did not act rashly, as this force merely scanned him without any aggression.

The more he advanced, the more immense the pressure Xia Liu felt became.

"Do you feel uncomfortable?"

Xiaowu asked.

"Yes, it feels like I can't breathe."

Even if he truly couldn't breathe, Xia Liu dared not move recklessly, after all, he was stepping into a high-level spirit formation.

This spirit formation is specifically targeted against those with evil intent. If he exposed himself, he would definitely be exhausted soon enough.

"It'll be alright soon enough."

Xiaowu didn't know how to explain, because saying more only leads to confusion.

Xia Liu just arrived here and couldn't possibly accept so much all at once.

Take it slow.

Just as Xiaowu said, very soon, Xia Liu felt nothing unusual.

His body felt light in an instant.

"Greetings, Elder Ye!"

Sensing the change around him, Xiaowu gave a respectful bow towards the void.

"Just this once."

Suddenly, a deep voice traversed through the void, echoing amidst the mountains and woods.

The voice carried seriousness, with a hint of helplessness.

"Thank you, Elder Ye."

Xiaowu naturally understood the meaning behind Elder Ye's words.

The Murong Family doesn't allow outsiders.

Yet now, the Third Miss was bringing Xia Liu back.

This clearly was breaking the rules.

Fortunately, Xia Liu had no cultivation, which reassured Elder Ye.

Xia Liu didn't make a sound, only appearing bewildered and baffled.

He was an actor, attempting to deceive everyone, a super actor.

As Xia Liu and Xiaowu passed through the light curtain and entered the Murong Family territory, two grey figures appeared atop a certain mountain peak.

The two bore white hair, seemingly aged, yet their demeanor displayed an energy and spirit.

Even strong men might pale in comparison.

"Brother Ye, what do you think of this handsome young man?"

"Hard to say, I noticed him as soon as he stepped into the domain, but we need more context on his upcoming actions."

Elder Ye stood with hands behind his back, his gaze fixed upon the young man walking down the avenue.

"I had the same feeling as you, his appearance shows clear signs of change."

Another grey-clad elder spoke.

"He is very calculating, but it's no problem; maybe his interest in the Murong Family led him here out of curiosity, let the Third Miss educate him."

Recalling what happened by Crescent Lake, Elder Ye found it amusing.

"Haha! I just hope he isn't a super expert."

"Brother Ming, you overthink it, he is so young, there's no energy fluctuation from him, not even a Martial Artist, much less a cultivator…"

Elder Ye felt speechless, his brother loved to fantasize.

Meeting someone always made him wonder if they were hidden experts.

Yet this was merely a youth, so young, a master is unlikely.

"Haha! Maybe I was worrying too much."

Murong Ming chuckled lightly; hidden expert, merely his catchphrase.

…

Amidst the laugh of the two elders, Xia Liu and Xiaowu arrived at the door of Murong Yan's courtyard.

This courtyard had an ideal position, not near Morning City, hence there were hardly any houses around, within thirty miles, Murong Yan could indulge in whatever she pleased.

As it was close to the mountain peak, there's a small waterfall cascading down from a mountain gorge behind the courtyard, mist flourishing during dawn and dusk, immensely pretty.

The courtyard gate opened, and a stern face appeared in Xia Liu and Xiaowu's view.

In front of a refined house, Murong Yan sat on a recliner.

She stretched her legs out, waiting in a very leisurely posture.

"Xiaowu, have you explained everything here to him?"

"Yes, I've already explained the situation."

Xiaowu nodded slightly, she couldn't guess what Murong Yan would do to torment Xia Liu next.

"Great, since he knows, assign him some work, many rooms have been devoured by spider webs."

…

Xia Liu had an ominous feeling that in the coming days, he might be a super miserable handyman!

"Hehe, I'll arrange it right away!"

Xiaowu laughed and nodded.

Once Xia Liu became a worker, she could relax!

"Wait!"

Xia Liu suddenly spoke.

"What's wrong? Do you think you can rebel now that you're here?"

Murong Yan jumped up from the recliner directly, her gaze scanning Xia Liu up and down as if she wanted to swallow him.

"If you don't want to, I'll find some Obedience Pills later and turn you into an obedient fool."

…

Xiaowu tried holding back laughter, what nonsense Obedience Pill, you can't fool adults with such bluff.

"I'll do it, but I have no strength, need to eat first…"

What could Xia Liu do; he only wanted to disguise himself more convincingly as an ordinary person.

"That's simple, Xiaowu will fix it, now go fetch some water and scrub the gate bright for me."

Murong Yan pointed to the yellowing gate.

…

One glance at the gate that hadn't been cleaned in god knows how many years and Xia Liu nearly exploded.

How lazy could this girl be, and how short-staffed was the Murong Family?

A Third Miss, yet not even a servant...
