Chapter 600 - 475: A Great Epidemic (Part 3)

If he manages to escape, we’re going to be in for a lot of trouble.

"What are you doing here?"

"You’ve restored your appearance!"

Both of them spoke at the same time.

"I’m Lin’s martial uncle, isn’t it normal for me to be here? But you, what are you doing here? Oh, you’re here to cause trouble..." Dongguo Sun immediately became wary, knowing Situ Wan’s former identity, yet not revealing it to Lin Miao for some reason.

Probably because that kid doesn’t acknowledge me as his martial uncle. Why should I tell him Situ Wan has been plotting in the Lin Family?

Wouldn’t it be more interesting to let him discover this secret on his own?

"I was caught by her." Situ Wan didn’t want to fight with Dongguo Sun. Her cultivation hadn’t recovered, and Dongguo Sun was at the Great Perfection of Meridian Realm. In the past, she wouldn’t have been afraid, but now, she felt uneasy. Besides, if they fought, it would surely alert that woman called Yue Mei’Er.

That little temptress wasn’t weak either. If they joined hands, she would surely lose, and she had no reason to fight with Dongguo Sun.

They were practically "family" now, and if that little rascal held grudges, she’d be the one to suffer.

What Situ Wan didn’t know was that there was another Celestial Essence Realm expert in the manor, Helian Wanwan, who was still in seclusion.

This breakthrough to the Celestial Essence, the infusion of Spiritual Qi, and the abundant insights were a rare opportunity. Why would she let it slip away?

So, even though Helian Wanwan knew about the situation between Situ Wan and Lin Miao, she never expected that the illustrious Rose Fairy of the Seeking Dao Sect would also fall into the hands of her disciple’s husband.

It was indeed quite amusing.

As long as Situ Wan didn’t cause trouble in the manor, Helian Wanwan would neither show herself nor meddle.

"Everyone should manage their own affairs."

"You got caught and was discovered," Dongguo Sun chuckled mischievously, a bit gloating. They had a history together, with the young Situ Wan being a little follower beside his sister-in-law, Hua Qingye. The news of Hua returning to the Seeking Dao Sect, along with the later rumors, mostly came from this little girl, including tales of "betrothal to the Gu family" and "a complete break."

His junior brother was heartbroken and went away with his daughter, largely because of this little girl’s messages. At the time, Situ Wan also believed Hua Qingye wasn’t worthy of his junior brother.

Time passed, and nearly twenty years later, after clearing up the matters from back then, his junior had already passed away, and Hua Qingye remained confined at the Siguoya, stripped of her freedom.

The Seeking Dao Sect was too ruthless, especially Hua Qingye’s master, Master Xuanji of the Merak Peak, an unsatisfied old woman.

"You got caught and still managed to escape. Oh, right, I forgot, there was an outbreak of an illness in the manor, no one had time to look after you, that’s why you managed to escape..."

"An illness outbreak, you say there’s an illness outbreak here?" Situ Wan was startled by this, no wonder she hadn’t encountered anyone on the way here.

"You don’t need to worry about that, Lin will handle it. He’s really good at disease prevention. I didn’t even have a chance to help him, using the knowledge we supplemented with the dog lessons. Take advantage of the fact that no one’s around and leave quickly. Otherwise, once that Yue Mei’Er woman returns, you won’t be able to leave!" Dongguo Sun reminded her.

"Isn’t he a physician? How come he also knows disease prevention?" Situ Wan exclaimed in surprise.

"Isn’t it normal for a physician to understand disease prevention? He’s also an official of the Medical Bureau. How would he be an official if he didn’t understand disease prevention?" Dongguo Sun gave Situ Wan a look.

"I mean, how can someone his age know so much?" Situ Wan quickly rephrased.

"Haha, well, I always felt my junior couldn’t have taught such a prodigious disciple, but he’s been taken in by my junior since childhood and has had no outside teachers. So, I must admit, some people are just born with innate knowledge and extraordinary talent!" Dongguo Sun sighed.

Upon hearing "extraordinary talent," Situ Wan’s cheeks flushed. He really was "extraordinarily talented," even able to break "Qingsi," as well as that "shameful" cultivation technique.

"You should leave quickly. If they find out, you won’t be able to escape."

"Aren’t you afraid that if I leave and he finds out, he’ll deal with you?"

"I’m his martial uncle. He won’t do anything to me!" Dongguo Sun lifted his head confidently and smiled.

"I also consider myself his martial aunt, yet I was still caught and imprisoned by him," Situ Wan thought to herself, "Even got completely taken advantage of."

"I’m different from you. I’m upfront without any ulterior motives. But you’re different. Are you trying to make my niece’s return to the Seeking Dao Sect to recognize her mother?"

"So what if I am?"

"Hehe, I advise you to give up that hope. My niece may look gentle but is very strong-willed, just like her father. She’ll never return to the Seeking Dao Sect."

"That’s a misunderstanding. Miss Hua was also helpless."

"Abandoning husband and daughter is being helpless? It doesn’t matter. Did she fulfill her duties as a mother? If not, then there should be no moral coercion. Youwei acknowledging her is a matter of affection, not acknowledging her is her own choice. Isn’t it better this way?" Dongguo Sun said, "Lin really cares for Youwei. He has many women around, but the position of the main wife has always been hers. He’s just waiting to marry her before granting titles to these women."

"If he truly loves Youwei, he should marry only her!"

"How can a capable man have only one woman? Even if he wants to, he can’t stop those women from throwing themselves at him. Lin is a wonderful person, just a bit too soft-hearted..."

"A flimsy excuse for his lust," Situ Wan scoffed.

"You should be careful. With someone like you staying by his side, it’s unlikely you’ll escape his antics in the long run, hehe!"

"Dongguo Sun, you’re an old rogue!" Situ Wan was so angry she flicked her sleeve and left immediately.

"You’ve known that for a long time, take care, I won’t see you off!"
