"Third Brother, here you go!"

Shao Cheng took the medical kit from his younger brother's offered hands, which had been taken away from his courtyard. After being granted permission to freely enter and exit his courtyard, Shao Cai knows where he usually places his medical kit.

"I'll try."

"Thank you, Third Brother! You are the best!"

"..."

Just as Lin Renshu had said, Shao Cheng doesn't want to disappoint his younger brother, especially when facing such a sincere and bright smile just in front of his eyes.

… If I can really treat this person, then I'll just use another way to restrain him, maybe undetectable drugs before I can completely cure him.

While Shao Cheng secretly began to plan ahead in order to keep his younger brother safe and sound, especially if a serious situation occurred when associating with Lin Renshu, he calmly gave the rope he was holding to a bored Ren Yuan that was playing around with the cup of tea on the table.

"Tie it."

Shao Cheng quickly saw how Ren Yuan's grey pupil shone in brilliant light as soon as the meaning behind the word 'Tie it' finally registered in his mind, which was something that the man wanted to do a while ago.

"Great~ I know Little Cheng wouldn't easily ignore what I wanted~"

Shao Cheng inwardly rolls his eyes after allowing Ren Yuan to finally tie the end rope in his wrist, thus causing the two of them to become connected with each other.

"I made sure the rope won't leave a mark in Little Cheng delicate skin~"

"..."

Shao Cheng remains helpless as the atmosphere around Ren Yuan basically brims with happiness.

And even though he was unable to tell if the man is really showing genuine emotion, he couldn't stop the pampering light that has slowly emerged in his cold sapphire pupil, which completely reflects the grinning face of Ren Yuan.

… What should I do... I seemed to be getting soft and a bit whip…?

Shao Cheng felt the constant change of his mood when dealing with Ren Yuan, even though the usual attitude of wanting to beat him up remained, but the constant indulgence and even the mood of always letting him have whatever he wanted is becoming stronger.

Such an attitude is extremely dangerous.

Shao Cheng already understood how overprotective and overindulgent he can be toward the people he cared about, so he could just imagine how overwhelming he can become the moment he falls in love with someone.

This is the reason why I don't want to love someone in a romantic way. It's troublesome and complicated.

As Shao Cheng was able to swiftly turn his emotion back to its normal indifferent expression, he still wasn't fast enough to hide it to the keen observer around them. The unconscious display of warmth, the hint of pampering emotion has been witnessed.

I should take a break from him after visiting the temple or I might reveal my feelings before I know it.

Shao Cheng felt like the determination he had before to never let Ren Yuan follow the same path in the previous life is being messed up after accepting the feeling in his heart.

Although Shoa Cheng's feeling wasn't love only a tiny bit of like, and yet he can feel how such a simple emotion is already enough to turn his mind into chaos.

The plan for the future, the determined step he is willing to take, and firm resolution to focus on the problems was slowly being stripped away just like that.

Shao Cheng understood that he couldn't get away from Ren Yuan, so he could only take a break and firmly keep himself in control.

… After two lifetimes, why do I have to start liking someone?

Although various complicated thoughts are constantly flashing in Shao Cheng's mind, it didn't stop him from taking closer to Lin Renshu and spreading his medical tools on the table before taking out one of the long thin silver needles among the countless others.

"Don't move, or it won't be my fault if something goes wrong."

As soon as Shao Cheng finished his warning, the silver needle twirls in his fingers as it is constantly being wrapped with internal energies, and a small hint of purple aura before plunging it to the unmoving leg, easily bypassing the robe.

And different from usual, Shao Cheng has started to use the skill he learned from his Master's in the previous life regarding all he knows about medical technology and medicines.

Of course, adding a bit of what he knows in his modern life.

At the same time, he also experimented a little bit with the newfound power he had obtained.

As for the reason for Shao Cheng using the situation to proceed with a new skill, well, in his mind, it's the least Lin Renshu could do to compensate for causing him trouble and making him do the treatment.

Although it's completely unreasonable, and yet, Shao Cheng remains indifferent, and the only reason why he didn't treat Lin Renshu as a complete experimental object for his new skill was for the sake of his younger brother.

For some unknown reason, he simply and genuinely doesn't like Lin Renshu or he is simply acting the older brother's attitude again, just as he treated Chang Pei in the previous life.

The only difference is that he is seeing Shao Cai as himself rather than the shadow of his younger brother in the first life.

… Like always, I'm a messed up person...

Shao Cheng continues to use the purple energy to figure out the unusual scene he saw in the man's paralyzed legs, at the same time his mind started to spiral down into deep thought.

Although, he continues to do his work without a problem as his pair of pupils glow purple.

Soon, he is able to witness the way those unusual energies that seemed to be covered in fog, skillfully running away from the internal energy around the silver needle that tried to simply figure out what is wrong with the man paralyzed legs.

… Huh… this might be the reason why no one can fully heal the young man's leg…

After all, no one would believe that whatever has caused the illness in the young man's legs can hide from being detected by the usual means, especially when internal energy is being used.

"So tricky… how did you get such troublesome poison?"

It's definitely a poison, the most unusual and lethal poison Shao Cheng has never seen in his entire life.

If this was given to Shao Cheng in his previous life, there is no denying the fact that he wouldn't be able to cure it because he wouldn't have the special vision to even see what is happening.

Huh… What's that…

Shao Cheng's eyes quickly narrowed down as more purple aura swirled upon his sapphire eyes in order to see better.

And when he is seriously gazing upon the unusual energy in the man's leg, he can finally see the hint of red color upon it.

Unexpectedly, rather than running away as always, the red color hiding in deep fogs appeared to have the sense of it being peeked, thus rushing over where the silver needle had pierced.

It's Not Good!

"Back off!"

Shao Cheng's long sleeves fluttered as he swiftly pushed the stunned Shao Cai and Xixi far away.

As for Ren Yuan, he pushed the man behind him, while cutting off the connection he had toward the silver needles, which is exactly the same time that the silver needle that was half-buried in Lin Renshu's leg flew out.

And shortly after, a spurt of black blood also flew out, which surprisingly shot in Shao Cheng's direction. At the same time, another black blood came out and flew over the direction where he had pushed Cai, Xixi, and even dared to target Ren Yuan behind his back.

"Fuck off."

Shao Cheng's eyes flash a chilling light and a hint of anger when it becomes a fact that whatever is in the man's legs, which is aside from the lethal poison, there is also a sort of spiritual existence on it.

After all, he saw another type of unusual energy in the color of red aura.

So Shao Cheng knew what it wanted to do, and that is to deal with the person that could threaten its existence, at the same time, the people that had the possibility of learning what it was.

"Little Cheng!"

"Third Brother!"

"Cousin!"

Before the others can get close and Ren Yuan can make a move, Shao Cheng uses his long sleeves to block the black blood coming in his direction, which causes a sizzling sound as it lands in his robe.

Then he sees the way the black blood has started to constantly erode the thin internal energy around his long sleeves like it was some acid or being burned.

And Shao Cheng didn't have time to think more deeply about it, swiftly taking Ren Yuan in his arms before turning his body in a circle. Then using the strong wind created by his movement, along with both internal energy and purple aura, the black blood was pushed in a different direction before landing in the ground.

Sizzle… Sizzle… Sizzle...

"Little Cheng, you are hurt!!!"

"Wait a second."

Shao Cheng's sapphire eyes are completely filled with purple energies and turning his attention focused on the shocked Lin Renshu's paralyzed legs, which the young man was being tortured with unimaginable pain by the look of his situation.

… What's that energy…

In Shao Cheng's vision, a red thread has suddenly come out from Lin Renshu's legs, before swiftly shooting in a certain direction.

At the same time, Purple hurried voices resounded out, appearing in the sky and blocking the red thread from passing through the courtyard, forming a transparent barrier around.

"Papa Bug quickly cut the red thread! This red aura will connect to whoever has cast the mysterious power in that young man's legs, which will allow it to learn about your existence and the purple energy!"

Red aura? Mysterious power?

Somehow, Shao Cheng remembers the blue aura that he saw when Pengfei used a mysterious ability and then the images of the massive blue auras that came from the Lau Empire.

During those memories flashing in his mind, Shao Cheng already appeared before the red thread.

And while still slightly hugging Ren Yuan in one arm for safety measure, he quickly took out the hidden dagger inside his robe, wrapping it with a dense purple aura rather than internal energy and swiftly cutting toward it.

Slash!

The moment the dagger touched the red thread, Ren Yuan, who is close to the two different colored aura colliding with each other, somehow caught a glimpse of the mysterious power.

Although it only lasted for a second and didn't occur anymore to Ren Yuan after the dagger had once more slash over the red thread, that quick glimpse of the unusual power would become a catalyst on a certain situation later on.

"Great! Papa Bug, I'll make sure that everything is alright!"

After the red thread made of red aura was cut off, Purple knows the importance of hiding the wicked man's specialness, especially when the Chang Spirit has seriously mentioned it before going to deep sleep.

So without hesitation, Purple's body turned into a gigantic size, enough to cover the sky in the Chang Capital, before opening his mouth wide and letting out a loud cry that sounded like thunder.

ROAARRRR!!!

Suddenly, Shao Cheng felt dizzy at the loud sound of the purple dragon that only he could hear, while the other special people with mysterious power would only barely sense purple existence.

Soon, the burst of power spread in every corner of the Chang Capital, which had the effect of blessing the land of the Chang Empire. At the same time, giving a negative effect on the people that don't belong to the Chang Empire with bad intentions in their minds.

"... I'm… tired... "

Because of how important and serious the entire situation of the red thread is, Shao Cheng has almost used all of his purple aura just for the sake of removing the danger that would lead to a severe threat not only in his life but also toward his family.

"Little Cheng… What the hell happened?"

Shao Cheng finally turned his full attention toward Ren Yuan that had obediently remained in his arms, and after a few seconds of staring at the worried and confused grey pupils, his body moved before his mind caught up, quickly letting go and swiftly putting a distance between them.

While Ren Yuan has his guard lowered down when it comes to a certain someone, didn't predict Shao Cheng's move, causing his butt to roughly land in the ground.

"..."
