The school doctor narrowed his eyes, then moved rapidly to… cut the tendons in Ling Xue’s hands and feet.
Ling Xue convulsed from the pain. Her eyes widened as she looked at the school doctor uncle disbelievingly and she bit down on her lips so hard they were about to bleed.
How could he? How dare he cut her meridians? How could he!? Now that her meridians were ruined, how was she supposed to use spiritual energy?
Only now did true fear flood Ling Xue’s heart. Her gaze filled with vivid terror and resentment as she looked at the school doctor uncle.
Ning Shu also stared blankly at the school doctor uncle for a while before she looked back at Ling Xue’s arm. Not a single drop of blood spilled out from the place the school doctor uncle had stabbed the scalpel. It was clear that the cut had been very precise.
The school doctor uncle was expressionless as if it wasn’t a beauty in front of him but simply a dead object that was waiting to be dissected.
Ling Xue and Ning Shu simultaneously felt a chill. In addition to the chill, Ling Xue felt uncontrollable fear. She had a premonition that her life was going to end in this place. Moreover, she would have to keep waiting every day, in fear of the unknown day when her life would end.
How could this be possible? She was the one and only cultivator in this world. She stood at the top of this world, she was a god-like existence! Yet she was to be trapped in this laboratory, never to even see the light of day again?
It wasn’t possible! It couldn’t be! Ling Xue refused to resign to this, but the moment she tried to move her hand, her limbs turned weak from pain. The spiritual energy that flowed in her body was forced to a stop at this place. She felt so much hate.
Ning Shu sighed in relief. She had never imagined that this was how she would end up completing her task. The aloof and remote Ling Xue actually became a test subject for the school doctor uncle to research genes.
She glanced at Ling Xue, then said to the school doctor uncle, “Uncle, I’ll head back now.”
“I’ll walk you back.” The school doctor uncle put the scalpel into the tray, then took off his gloves.
Ning Shu felt a little overwhelmed by this favor from a superior and immediately asked, “Uncle, you couldn’t be planning to kill in order to silence, right?”
The school doctor uncle paused and rubbed his chin in a contemplating manner. “That’s a good idea.”
“Uncle ah, I was just kidding, don’t take it seriously. Uncle, I don’t know anything.” Ning Shu was practically about to hug the school doctor uncle’s leg to beg for mercy.
“Enough, let’s go. Forget everything that happened today,” said the school doctor uncle mildly.
Afterwards, Ning Shu felt as if her legs were about to break from walking again. When they finally reached the nurse office, Ning Shu took a deep breath and finally felt more at ease.
That cold laboratory was seriously too stifling.
“Uncle, how do you plan to deal with Ling Xue?” asked Ning Shu carefully.
The school doctor uncle’s expression turned cold. “There’s no need for you to mind this. The department had long already noticed this woman’s abnormality. This is an upper level matter, it has nothing to do with you.”
Wah, it was actually related to a higher up organization. Then the school doctor uncle was a person from that organization? Indeed, it wasn’t something that she should know about.
Ning Shu sneakily moved closer and the school doctor uncle immediately jabbed her forehead with a finger as he said, “If you want to speak, just speak. Don’t get so close.”
“Uncle, you’re seriously too amazing. I worship you so much, my respect is unending like torrential river water…” Ning Shu proceeded to flatter him like crazy.
“If you want to talk, then just talk. Why act so disgusting?” The school doctor uncle dusted off his white coat. He insisted on patting at it though there was no dust on it. He was probably a bit OCD.
“Talk, what exactly do you want to ask me?” said the school doctor uncle indifferently.
Now Ning Shu really felt like worshipping the school doctor uncle. “Uncle, you seriously are too amazing. I so worship you…”
The school doctor uncle closed his fingers in a ‘enough’ gesture and Ning Shu immediately shut her mouth.
“Uncle, can you help me investigate who my birth parents are?” Ning Shu found that the tasks of this world had become so much easier after she met this uncle. Uncle, you have such a thick thigh. She had to hug it more.
