Chapter 659 Rui Is Determined To Treat The Old Master

  The old physician indeed went to Gu Li to talk about something. 

  "Send something to eat and drink after every shichen. Rui is with the child. Though I will be there to take care of her and ensure that she will take proper rest, you should not forget to send the proper diet during the treatment."

  Gu Li looked at the old physician's serious face and nodded his head calmly. 

  He had already asked Rong Ting to do all this. 

  He cared for his master but he didn't care any less for Li Rui. To him, she was like his little sister and he look forwarded to the birth of the child in her stomach very much. 

  So how could he not take care of her!

  Still, he heard patiently whatever the old physician told him. He frowned when he heard that women tend to crave something sour or spicy or sometimes something sweet during such a time. 

  Though they will be amidst the treatment, the old physician didn't want Li Rui to compromise over the food. The problem was that the girl would not eat too much if she would get to eat what she was craving. But it was also not her fault. 

  So he asked Gu Li to be ready for such events. 

  Gu Li didn't seem to believe the old physician much. After all, nothing like this happened in the past few days but he still nodded his head. 

  It was after a shichen, that everyone was stepping in front of the old master's tent. 

  Li Rui looked at the six physicians and said calmly 

  "Let's go"

  The six physicians immediately nodded their heads. They were quite excited to see what was going to happen during the treatment. By now, they have come to believe that Li Rui really had some different knowledge than them and she seemed to know how the person inside the tent could be cured. 

  They wanted to witness such an event. 

  Youxio shadow guards looked at their backs with nervousness-filled eyes. 

  Gu Li sensed his shadow guards' emotions but he only commanded them to get back to their work. 

  After the shadow guards had cleared the area, Xi Ying walked to Gu Li and said 

  "Either Rui or the old physician would stay inside the tent with others."

  Gu Li nodded his head in understanding. 

  He understood what Xi Ying was trying to imply.       

  He was indirectly telling him that Li Rui's rest would not be compromised because of this treatment and he accepted his wish. He would not want the opposite. 

  Xi Ying was also going to go inside the tent in some time but before that, he wanted to ask something to Gu Li. 

  "Is there anyone who knows that your organization is residing here?"

  Gu Li frowned and shook his head wondering why Xi Ying was asking him such a question. 

  Xi Ying's face went grave and he said coldly

  "This Lord seemed to have noticed a few strangers around the valley in the morning."

  It was when he had gone to the hot spring with Li Rui and Xi Ling. He could guess that those strangers were also shadow guards but they didn't seem to be from Youxio. 

  He could have caught them at that time but he didn't want to leave Li Rui and Xi Ling alone so he decided to talk to Gu Li about this later. 

  Gu Li's face was also serious when he heard Xi Ying.

  "I will have my people keep an eye around the valley."

  Xi Ying nodded his head and said that he would do the same. After that, he finally went inside the tent and Gu Li followed him.

  They had undressed the old master. 

  Li Rui felt sad on seeing how weak the old master's body was. Although she knew that it was something that was ought to happen after he was unconscious and had survived only on liquid diets. 

  Still, she couldn't help but remember how strong and unformidable he had been when he had taught her swordsmanship and other things that required a lot of strength.

  Perhaps it was her hormones but she felt her eyes filling up slightly as she looked at the old master. 

  It was only when she felt someone's hand on her shoulder, that she came out of the trance. 

  "Rui"

  It was Xi Ying who was looking at her with concern-filled eyes. 

  "Are you alright?'

  He asked her and then immediately looked at the old physician with cold eyes and asked 

  "What is wrong with her? Did you not just check her yesterday and had said that she is completely alright?" 

  The old physician was baffled at hearing Xi Ying's words. 

  He looked at him with narrowed eyes and said 

  "She has a heart unlike you, young man."

  He scoffed. 

  Even Gu Li understood on seeing Li Rui's moisture-laden eyes what she was thinking but Xi Ying didn't. He was still looking at the old physician with deathly cold eyes. 

  "She is sad on seeing his weak body."

  The old physician explained knowing that Xi Ying would perhaps bury him alive there only if he didn't elaborate.

  Xi Ying frowned as he turned to look at Li Rui who now looked calm. His heart was filled with distress as he wiped the corner of her eyes with his fingers while others turned their heads away silently. 

  Li Rui felt embarrassed for behaving like this in front of so many people.   

  "He will be fine now that you are here."

  She heard Xi Ying telling her gently. 

  Seeing that, she cared for the old master so much, Xi Ying even said 

  "I will myself look out for him in the future. Don't worry. You need to focus now."

  Li Rui nodded her head. 

  Xi Ying was right. His words made her feel very relieved. She smiled lightly bringing relief to Xi Ying's heart in return. 

  When she turned around to start the treatment finally, she was determined to heal the old master. 

  Nothing she could do to repay him for what he has done for her. 

  It was the least she could do for him and she really wanted him to get his consciousness back. 

  She wanted him to see that she had not forgotten whatever he had taught her. 

  She wanted him to know that she never left practice behind just as he had said. 

  And …somewhere she also wanted him to praise her for her developed skills.
