How to Tame a God and the Lucky Beasts-Chapter 160 - 161: Mr. Liu

"Mr. Hu, how is Third Master now?"

A middle-aged man dressed in a butler’s uniform followed the doctor out of the room and asked quietly.

The doctor shook his head, his brows furrowed, "Not very optimistic."

"Since Third Master woke up, his body functions have deteriorated at an alarming rate. Even with the advanced equipment at our hospital, we can’t find the reason."

The middle-aged man also frowned and spoke:

"Based on the current situation, how much longer can Third Master hold on?"

The doctor pondered for a long time, then slowly stated a number,

"Five months, at most half a year."

The middle-aged man staggered upon hearing this. He couldn’t believe that the once majestic Third Master now had only half a year left to live.

"Cough cough, cough, Liu Xi, water."

This middle-aged man was Liu Xi.

Though the voice was faint, Liu Xi was a martial artist, and he heard it clearly.

Quickly leaving a sentence, "Third Master is awake!"

He turned and hurried back to the room.

Liu Xi knelt on one knee by the bed, supporting the pale and extremely weak person on the bed, and considerately placed a soft pillow behind Third Master.

"Third Master, you’re awake? How do you feel?"

"Cough cough, what can this wretched body feel, as long as it doesn’t die it’s fine."

As soon as Third Master finished this sentence, it was as if he’d exhausted all his strength.

The doctor also came in, though his age made his steps slower.

Third Master glanced up and immediately recognized the person, a smile appeared on his pale face:

"Uncle Hu, long time no see."

The person referred to as Uncle Hu was the doctor who entered the room a step slower—Hu Jianye.

Hu Jianye had been the Liu family’s family doctor since Third Master’s father’s generation and was still working for the Liu family.

Now it’s been over sixty years, and it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that Doctor Hu watched Third Master grow up.

"Jun Hui, you’re finally awake. It’s been ten years; if you didn’t wake up soon, I, this old man, would be in the ground!"

Jun Hui—Liu Junhui, was Third Master’s real name.

"What are you saying, you’re looking sturdier than me."

Mr. Hu stepped forward to feel Third Master’s pulse at his wrist.

After a while, he lightly sighed, his tone carried a bit of confusion but he reported truthfully:

"Jun Hui, how is your body recovering so quickly?!"

"Could it be the body’s self-repair function?"

"It shouldn’t be, even if the self-repair was powerful, it shouldn’t recover to health in such a short time!"

"Jun Hui? Do you still feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

Liu Junhui, half-leaning in bed, was still very weak at the moment.

But indeed, as Mr. Hu said, his body was self-repairing, and the speed was incredibly fast.

All this was thanks to the Mountain and Sea Realm he once possessed.

People in the Liu family didn’t know about this.

They only knew that Third Master seemed to have some mysterious organization that always helped him resolve problems around him.

But one day, Third Master suddenly disappeared. When the Liu family found Liu Junhui, it was in a remote mountain, and by then he had already fallen into a coma.

The Liu family initially thought someone had purposely kidnapped Liu Junhui, but when they found the unconscious Liu Junhui, there were no wounds on his body.

After examining Liu Junhui, Mr. Hu’s conclusion was also that everything was normal, with no traces of drugs.

Everything was bizarre yet without clues, so the Liu family could only take Liu Junhui home for rest, looked after by Liu Xi, who had grown up with him.

And so ten years passed by.

Three days ago, the slumbering Liu Junhui suddenly woke up.

Upon waking up, he looked at the Liu family, which was no longer what it once was, and at Liu Xi, who had entered middle age, feeling mixed emotions.

If not for that person, how would he not even have seen his parents one last time?

If not for that person, why would he have destroyed the prosperous and spiritually rich Mountain and Sea Realm by his own hands?

In hindsight, it was not worth it.

Over the past few days, Liu Junhui’s elder brother and sister also came to visit him.

Once charismatic, his elder brother now carried all his zest within, becoming a calm and composed businessman like their father.

The elder sister had long since married and had children.

Only he remained the same as ten years ago, his appearance unchanged.

Looking at his somewhat thinner, paler reflection in the mirror, Liu Junhui realized that person ultimately couldn’t let go of him, giving him that sliver of life.

Alas, why bother. It would’ve been better to let him die.

In the Mountain and Sea Realm, so many Divine Beasts either died or got injured ten years ago.

How could he face those surviving partners again?!

By the way, before he fell into a deep sleep, he had instructed Yun Jing to send the Qilin’s young cub to its destined person, how was the cub now?

Without the once invincible Liu Junhui, the Liu family was only a second-tier family in Su City now.

It took three days to find information on Ruan Xingwen, and the phone call that was finally connected disconnected because of his sudden excitement and fainting.

But fortunately, he already knew the cub was safe, which slightly put him at ease.

As for his body, Liu Junhui wasn’t worried at all.

Though he no longer had the support of the Mountain and Sea Realm, his body, long reforged by Spiritual Power, was beyond comparison to an average person.

This terrifying recovery ability was proof.

On the side, Liu Xi had felt sorrow for his master’s dwindling days, but Mr. Hu’s re-diagnosis overturned the prior opinion.

This made Liu Xi very happy.

Entering middle age, with a few gray hairs already appearing, Liu Xi’s face rarely showed a child-like expression, looking just like the honest young man from ten years ago.

Liu Xi’s appearance took Liu Junhui back in time, but his memories mostly featured the man who ruined everything for him.

Unwilling to dwell on it, Liu Junhui spoke to break the silence.

"Liu Xi, tell me about what has happened in the Liu family over these years."

Liu Xi started from the time he disappeared, but was cut off by Liu Junhui raising his hand.

Liu Junhui suddenly looked toward the bedroom window, his pale lips slightly parted, and softly said:

"First, talk about Father and Mother."

"...Alright, Third Master."

===========================

PM

"Alright, hurry home! Don’t be late tomorrow!"

Zhang He helped send off the last wave of employees.

Ruan Xingwen had been busy with her all along. Aside from taking a short break at the start, he had been stuck in a loop of toasting and being toasted.

Now his head was buzzing, but he was still somewhat clear-headed, able to help Zhang He see the guests off.

After blowing in the chilly wind outside for a while, he felt a bit more awake.

On the way back to the private room, Zhang He went to the bathroom to freshen up her makeup.

Ruan Xingwen returned to the private room alone.

But strangely, there was no one in the room.

Ruan Xingwen stepped out, looking around, but still couldn’t find Yu Xiaozhe, Li Mu, or Ruan Xiaoqi.

Where did they go?

===========================

Hmm?

Where did they go?
