"This ce is empty, Traveling Doctor Liu."


    Traveling Doctor Liu scanned his surrounding and nodded in satisfaction. He only wanted to talk about some things with the young girl, so this ce would be good enough.


    "Young Miss Hua, I''m sure that you know what I would like to ask. However, I''ll still say it out loud. Are you the one who concoct that medicine?"


    Nan Hua was silent before nodding. "As you have guessed, Traveling Doctor Liu."


    This time, Traveling Doctor Liu''s eyes shone with interest. That kind of poison definitely couldn''t be made overnight. This made him curious just how did this young girl who was barely 10 years old and didn''t have a ce to create medicine could possibly make such poison.


    "How interesting. Nan Hua, would you like to be my disciple?"


    Be his disciple?


    Nan Hua looked at Traveling Doctor Liu and felt a bit apprehensive. Traveling Doctor Liu was the best doctor in this era with no one coulde close. If he dared to im to be second, no one would dare to im first.


    However, his name was not known to many people, thus only a limited number of people knew his real talent. Most of them only knew that he was the traveling doctor who dedicated himself to treat illness. He was also someone who pioneered a lot of medicine in this era for many type of sickness that had only appeared.


    However…


    "Traveling Doctor Liu, why do you want me to be your disciple?"


    "Your talent in medicine is high. I have never seen such a young kid like you who can possibly know so much and even created a brand new type of medicine." Traveling Doctor Liu was genuinely impressed. He smiled. "It was because of this that I feel it''ll be too bad if you didn''t learn more with me."


    Nan Hua was silent.


    Based on the timeline, it was indeed not the time for Traveling Doctor Liu to meet that person.


    But…


    "What if I end up having conflict with your disciple in the future, Traveling Doctor Liu?"


    Every disciple who followed Traveling Doctor Liu came from various kingdoms. Some of them could follow Traveling Doctor Liu to travel around and not bound by their kingdoms. But some of them couldn''t as they stayed within their kingdom and treated the people around the ce where they stayed.


    And when war broke out, it was clear that they would be deployed to be military doctor.


    Traveling Doctor Liu smiled as he rubbed his beard. "I have thought about that matter a lot. If you have any conflict with the other disciples, I would not interfere at all. What I care the most is how many people you can possibly save if I help you to grasp more herbs and understanding of medicine."


    Nan Hua looked at Traveling Doctor Liu.


    Probably, she could never understand this doctor. He was someone who chose to dedicate himself to cure other people and always traveled by following his heart.


    If there was someone whom he saved, he would simply say that it was fate.


    No matter who they were, Traveling Doctor Liu simply wanted to help them to survive longer. He stayed true to his profession.


    "I can''t be like you, Traveling Doctor Liu. Is that fine?"


    "It''s fine. I don''t have demands for you to follow me around. However, I would like you to promise to give it your all when you want to save someone around you." Traveling Doctor Liu smiled.


    Nan Hua nodded. "I promise, Master."


    After saying that, Nan Hua kowtowed on the ground, performing the ritual of when one epted a master. It was the tradition in this ce and the only reason why she knew… was because she read this.


    Traveling Doctor Liu was in good mood when he saw that Nan Hua epted him as his disciple. "You cane inside when I treat your grandfather tomorrow. For today, you can rest first. Oh right, since you''ve be my disciple, I should give you something."


    A bag was pulled from Traveling Doctor Liu''s waist and he handed it to Nan Hua. "Read the book inside and there''s also a box of dried herbs inside. It''s a pretty rare herbs and you might find it useful."


    "Thank you, Master."


    "Good girl."


    Nan Hua looked at the bag and opened it. Seeing the bamboo scroll, she carefully read the introduction. It was indeed the book that detailed the various usage of herbs. It was very precious as there were many types of herbs in this world.


    As for the box… she would open itter.


    "Go."


    After bidding her farewell, Nan Hua returned to her room and began to read the book. She still had to wait until night time for the operations. As for her twin brother and cousins… she would let them experience her grandfather''s wrath first.


    As expected, when it was dinner time, her three brothers were punished.


    Old Master Nan let her off, so Nan Hua could resume reading under the envious gaze of Feng Ao Kuai.


    Night came.


    Nan Hua had only read a part of the book when she sensed faint movement behind her. Her indifferent eyes shed with coldness as she turned around. "You havee."


    "Master."


    Fei Mao appeared. Dressed in all ck and concealing his presence, it was hard for anyone to even detect where he was unless they were more skilled than him.


    When Nan Hua came out with Long Qian Xing and Lin Yuan, she had sent message to the spies of Dark Moon Organization. Because she was the new branch master, there were a lot of Dark Moon organization members roaming around her ce every single day.


    They were here to protect their master per order from Fei Mao.


    "Have you found out what happened in the pce this morning?" Nan Hua asked softly.


    "Yes. The one who pulled Great General Nan down is Official Du, Du Gu Xiang. He''s 34 years old this year and had been making a lot of troubles for Great General Nan.. We''re ready to depart to his residence if it''s necessary."
