Poisoning the World: The Secret Service Mysterious Doctor is a Young Beastly Wife Chapter 346-347

Chapter 346 – Enemies Meeting on a Narrow Path

'How odd. In each place he appeared, he gave rise to an uproar. This time, how could he idly sit there without anyone noticing him?'

Seeing that he was being this relaxed, it didn't seem like he was in the bustling city center but on Spirit Mountain Graceful Water.

Ning Xuemo couldn't help herself from stealing a few glances. For the moment, she didn't have any intention of taking revenge.

This person's skills were too profound, and her current skills weren't on par. She would simply court death if she was to provoke him now.

Han Shanyue felt someone's gaze on him, thus he raised his head and his eyes met Ning Xuemo's.

Despite the distance separating them, their gazes locked together!

Abruptly, Ning Xuemo felt goosebumps all over her body, as if she had been assaulted by a wave of frost.

She had no choice but endure and force herself from not shivering.

She couldn't clearly see his eyes, but oddly enough, she could feel his gaze on her, an incorporeal sensation that swept her body.

'This is really super cold!'

For some reason, that man's gaze gave her the same impression as when the Ancestor looked at her that day in the palace hall.

Her heart palpitated. She didn't seem to recall offending him. She let go of the curtain and sat meditating in the constantly shaking palanquin.

"Master, I saw Han Shanyue that man who called you bearer of misfortune!" The little qilin's voice echoed within Ning Xuemo's mind.

"You don't need to pay attention to him." Ning Xuemo instructed the little qilin. Han Shanyue and her were people from two different worlds. If she can't provoke him, then she won't provoke him.

The palanquin finally reached the mansion's entrance. When Old Zhong, who was waiting in front, saw Ning Xuemo coming out of the palanquin, he hurriedly welcomed her, "Mistress!" He was worried in his heart for the whole day, but his young mistress finally came back.

Ning Xuemo nodded, but her sight landed on a person behind Old Zhong.

It was a teenager around 14-15 years old with a baby face. His figure was as straight as a green bamboo with a solemn and cold temperament, and on his waist, a broken sword hung.

'This person…'

She met this person on Heavenly Book Mountain.

"He is?" Ning Xuemo asked.

Old Zhong showed an unrestrained happy expression, "Mistress, he is the newly hired bodyguard. His skills are pretty good."

Ning Xuemo observed the teenage's pale face.

'He came here to repay his gratitude?'

'Or… is there another reason?'

'His injuries heal quite fast.'

The teenager greeted her but stayed silent.

For now, Ning Xuemo won't expose him. This time, the emperor not only rewarded her with wealth, but bestowed six imperial bodyguards, two maidservants, two cooks and even a gardener.

Of course, those people all heard about her infamous title of bearer of ill luck and were afraid of her suppressing their lives. Unfortunately, the emperor's decree couldn't be disobeyed. Death was the only consequence if they didn't immediately obey!

Therefore, even if they were unwilling, they still had to follow Ning Xuemo.

Ning Xuemo let Old Zhong manage these people while she directly went to take a bath, eat breakfast, and finally go straight to bed, sleeping for a whole day.

When she woke up, the sun was already setting behind the mountains.

Old Zhong arranged for people to send her supper.

The cooks deserved their places in the palace. Every dish they prepared was fragrant and delicious.

After Ning Xuemo and the little qilin wolfed down the food, the maidservants came in to clean up the table.

The little qilin ate until it was bloated before being satisfied. It patted its belly and said, "The food made by the imperial cooks are really delicious. No wonder that old emperor used this to lure me."

Ning Xuemo glanced at the little qilin. "Lure you?"

"Yes, Master…"

The little qilin's memory is not bad. It narrated to her what happened between him and the old emperor while she was operating on Ji Yunhuang.

Woohoo! I beat my record of number of characters I can translate in one hour, but I'm drained of energy after that. I'm still faraway from Etvo's, Meh's and Selutu's speed. OTL

Chapter 347 – The Bodyguard Who Came to Her Door

Ning Xuemo sneered. It appeared that Le Xuan Emperor fancied the little qilin and almost succeeded enlisting it under the imperial family's possessions!

"Little Apple, humans are sinister creatures. If you don't want your words to cause the extermination of your entire clan, you should never mention where your clan dwells to anyone! Not even half a hint should be divulged! Do you understand?" If the coordinates of the qilin's sacred land were to be known, it was very likely that endless calamity and bloodbath would befall that place.

The little qilin nodded. "I understand. The big brother that came with me in the stone essence spirit also said the same thing." Therefore, it understood that point and kept himself from revealing it.

Ning Xuemo relaxed her tone and remembered the sealed prince within the stone essence spirit. It seemed like that prince didn't lack morality. As the Ancestor's disciple, he was much better than that Ye Qingluan. Hum… For some reason, she always felt that she forgot something important.

"Little Apple, do you remember who helped us establish our blood contract?" She always felt there was another person accompanying her during the time she was in the stone essence spirit.

Unfortunately, no matter how much she tried, she couldn't recall who it was.

The little qilin shook its head, at a loss. "I forgot. I only remembered that person was an expert…"

Of course it was an expert! Otherwise, how could that person help them establish a blood contract that only a heaven realm expert could do?

"What kind of expert?  Do you still remember that person's appearance?"

The little qilin shook its head. "I can't remember."

They both couldn't remember that expert's appearance. Did that expert erase their memories before departing?

Ning Xuemo couldn't understand no matter how much she thought about it, so she simply stopped pondering about it.

If that expert really wanted to harm her, she would be unable to hide from it, so she might as well not fret.

After instructing a few things to the little qilin, she waved her hand to let it go out and play. She also left her room to discover that after a day of sleep the whole mansion resumed to his former glorious appearance.

The servants that the old emperor rewarded her were all agile, attending to their duties: weeding, patrolling, cleaning, and sweeping.

Ning Xuemo strolled around the place, and no matter where she went everything was clean and well organized, and the servants were doing their work.

The most serious about their duties were those imperial guards who were following behind her and guarding her from a distance. Even when they were on standby, their formation was solid.

Ning Xuemo's heart trembled and called Old Zhong, "Uncle Shu, who arranged these people?"

"Reporting to mistress, it was the newly hired youth, Xijue. He's very capable. In less than half a day, he was able to control those prick-headed guards…" Old  Zhong's tone was full of praise for the teenager. This was an overpowered servant who delivered himself to their door!

Although those imperial guards were not peak experts, each of them still possessed pretty good martial arts skill.

Since they considered themselves imperial guards, they would be unwilling to obey Old Zhong after being demoted to this place.

They didn't dare to disobey the emperor, but it didn't mean that they would care and follow Old Zhong's arrangements.

Not to mention those imperial cooks, palace maids and that gardener… None of them were easy to deal with. From the start, no one had the intention to work or give their best after entering the Marquis' mansion as they were all arrogant iddlers shirking their responsibilities, going as far as mocking Old Zhong who was giving them tasks and glaring at that newly hired teenager Xijue.

The result, Xijue beat up the most arrogant and unruly of the imperial bodyguards. After beating him at least five times in a row, Xijue finally won over that guard.

Most of those prick-headed guards were honest; therefore, they all obeyed his orders.

So… I decided to have a mass release of PTW on July 22nd. Hopefully, nothing will happen and stop me from doing so.
