《You, Me》Chapter 7 Verdict
Advertisement
A messenger from the Earth Realm arrived at the bottom of the Heaven Realm's gate. The messenger must be a talented, experienced, and powerful enough martial artist to be able to arrive at the door of Heaven Realm. He delivered a message regarding of the sect competition and would like to invite Heaven Realm to attend the martial artist's competition hoping to get their protection. With that, he disclosed of possible Dark Realm may make a move to attack Mount Qingyun. Afterward, he left hoping on the day of the competition, Heaven Realm can protect the sect from the Dark Realm if they were to make a move.
The Emperor sat on the golden throne and beneath him are his fellow ministers and princes. Both first prince, Lan Shuixin and second prince, Lan Moxin was present along with their other brothers, third prince, Lan Yuexin, fourth prince, Lan Hongxin, fifth prince, Lan Wuxin, sixth prince, Lan Lingxin, and seventh prince, Lan Tangxin. They were all grown ups and are hundreds of years old but looks very young like in their early twenties. They are still in their youth looking at their best.
Prime Minister Li suggested, "We should send a powerful and honorable being to Earth Realm to calm them down so they won't think we Artie turning our back on them. Their safety comes first before the competition." He made himself sounded just and fair but beneath his fair face is yet another being that just want to look down on Lan Shuixin as he was so proud her daughter is now a concubine of the crown prince. Li Huahua's reputation was smeared before marriage and so she was unable to marry as the first wife and was only granted a concubine title. Even so, he is glad Li Huahua doesn't have to marry a crippled and suffer for life.
Another minister agree, "I agree with what Prime Minister Li said. We should send a well known powerful being to comfort Qingyun Sect." Great General Wang kneels down and offer, "I think we should send crown prince down this should appease Qingyun Sect." The emperor nods as in going to agree with his suggestion.
Lan Moxin's eyes widen feeling troubled. He does not want to deal with lowly human beings. He feel like that will taint his hand and he quickly disagree, "Father, I disagree. Ever since I was crowned as crown prince, I've grown really busy please send someone else." He pleaded looking at his father in embarrassment and looks away. He knew right away when the emperor looks at him, the emperor already knew he was lying. His face flushed red and didn't dare to look at the emperor again.
The emperor sigh. The room started discussing whom to send and soon the hall started getting louder and louder. Lan Shuixin was listening and finds it very annoying so he cup his hand to his father and said, "Father, let me go down to Earth Realm. Since no one is willing to take the job, let me do it." The emperor looks at Lan Shuixin and ask worrying about his health, "But you can't see, how can you judge? How about this... let third prince Yue'er and fifth prince Wu'er go with you. That way my heart can be at ease. If the situation gets intense, have one of them report back as soon as possible and I will let Great General Wang send his troops for backup. We are not sure if Dark Realm will attack or not, so before that, make sure you are prepare." He warn him. Third prince and fifth prince listen attentively. They could not refuse nor say anything as it was the final verdict of the emperor.

Wang Xiaomi heard the news of Lan Shuixin's departure to Earth Realm. She really wants to go with him. She asked her father for so many times and her father scolded her for being willful. He cannot let his daughter go to Earth Realm in fear of Dark Realm may be attacking in Mount Qingyun per the warning and report from the messenger of Earth Realm. He scolded her for not learning anything from Lan Shuixin. He have only one daughter and wanted her to excel in arts, literature, and martial arts, but unfortunately, Xiaomi definitely never got the hold of martial arts or powers. He feel so distressed as he is a Great General of Heaven Realm, but has no son to take after him when he is gone so he wanted Wang Xiaomi to try to learn martial arts, but she just can't get the grasp of it. So he gave up and the thought of having her learn martial arts.
Wang Xiaomi always knew her father wanted her to learn martial arts and powers so she made an excuse, "Father, last time first prince and I encountered a physician whose able to help him recover his powers..." She looks at her father's expression and she notice her father's expression had a slight change in surprise then she continue, "If you allow me to go to Earth Realm, I am sure Physician Wan will have a way to help me with cultivating powers or martial arts. I am sure as knowledgeable as he is, if he is able to help restored first prince's condition then with my condition it should be no problem to him." She give him a confident answer hoping to get a chance to accompany Lan Shuixin to Earth Realm to take care of him. She added, "And I just want to look after first prince and make sure nobody bully him since he was in this condition because of me... so before he recover, I am partly responsible for his health being."
Hearing the first part of her explanation, he was convinced that if the physician is that great, then he have hope. He was fill with hope again and cough as if he was clearing his throat, "If I let you go, if the situation gets dangerous, make sure you leave that place to somewhere safe with first prince." He finally let her go and he continue, "If you lie to me about Physician WAN's ability then you will get grounded when you come back! So make sure you ask that physician," with that he left the room with an angry face, but sigh of relief. He had a slight hope in his eyes. He hope his daughter isn't lying about this physician, but regarding of the information of Lan Shuixin's ability to walk using the cane was known throughout the realm so she couldn't be lying about meeting a great physician.

Hei Bai cup his hand reporting in, "Prince, I've got some information regarding Physician Wan." Mu Yuhan was sitting behind his desk reading some papers and heard Hei Bali's voice reporting in the dark and just give him a "Mm..." as in insisting him to continue his report. Hei Bai continues, "Physician Wan seldom visit the capital. He lives in Mount Mt. Gao Shan next to Mt. Qingyun across from Qingyun sect but his peak is higher than Mt. Qingyun. They are neighbors, but he lives alone. Not many people dare to climb the mountain for his service only the desperate ones dare to climb for his service other then that many people will wait for his arrival in the capital to seek his service. Climbing Mt. Gao Shan is very high and narrow with very little grip so not many people are brave enough to climb Mt. Gao Shan." He gave a brief description of Mt. Gao Shan. His voice turn serious, "Prince..." he stops.
Mu Yuhan realize the change of his undertone and stops reading his papers and glare at him asking, "What's the matter?" Hei Bai's face was filled with complicated expression. Hei Bai take a deep breath and continue, "I see a teleportation array at the bottom of Mt. Gao Shan. Perhaps, it is a shortcut to the peak of Mt. Gao Shan, but if regular citizens or people does not know that it's a teleportation array then it can be seen as a decorated ground because its decorated lavishly in flowers... I'd say its a very smart way to hide such array and this Physician Wan is probably not as simple as we thought."
Mu Yuhan nods and ask, "Have you gathered information how or what he is like?" Hei Bai reply, "I have asked countless people in the capital and they said he is a very handsome lad who wore red and have always worn red even when treating patients. He always wore a gold masks covering his face. At times he will wear a gold mask covering just one of his eyes and at times he wore a gold mask covering half his face leaving only the bottom half visible. He obtained many admirers for his beauty. He is really famous throughout the capital not for his handsome looks, but also his knowledge for medicine. No one actually witnessed him sparring with anyone so at this point I am unsure how formidable he is." He answer with a clear analysis. Then he throw in his opinion, "What a vulgar guy... for a physician to wear red is very vulgar of him." Hei Bai had on a displeasure expression.
Mu Yuhan listen attentively and ask, "So... is he more handsome or me? What if Lian'er falls for him?!" He had a sudden thought and panics. Hei Bai looks at Mu Yuhan and was startled remembering Physician Wan did indeed laid a hand on Wang Xiaolian, "Prince... Don't listen to hearsay. We have not even meet him yet perhaps, it's just a rumor. In Dark Realm, no one can par with your beauty I can assure you that." He tried to appease Mu Yuhan's worried, but he didn't realize he upset him even more.
"All three realm can you still guarantee I look the best?" He raise his eyebrow and looks at Hei Bai. Hei Bai looks away in fear. "Hmph!" He snort and looks away feeling angry, "It has always been Lan Shuixin and me! Now, where did this Physician Wan come from? You better go do more research! Go away!" He dismisses Hei Bai feeling very unpleasant inside. Thinking of Physician Wan putting his arms around Xiaolian make him feel very heated. He couldn't cool down he slam his book on the table unable to continue his reading. He thought for a while then ended up smirking, "This Physician Wan I will definitely see..."

Sometimes my voice dies in my throat, buries itself beneath waves of crippling suffocation, burns itself out as cold hands tear at my laced skin. I have smiled while my eyes have cried and pleaded, my wrists numb, my lips wobbling and blue, and stars escaping this dark night that I'm trapped in. I long for a darkness that gives way to light. But I do feel the warmth of petals gathering and scattering in my cold bones, and imagine the touch and the sweetness of a kiss, and my heart rises to the surface of this sea and finds a sky painted by passing artists remaining far above our heads. I'm breathing out all the words I've kept locked under the pages of my breaking mind. And by doing so, I'm going to heal.TRIGGER WARNINGS: depression, anxiety, self harm, suicidal thoughts, OCD, panic attacks
