Beauty and the Bodyguard

Yaowang wanted to increase his strength to break through the armband, but the medicine was too mysterious and there was a chance of death. He would rather not break through than try it. His meridians were still intact, so it wasn't worth the risk.

Old Zhao naturally knew what Yaowang was thinking. Seeing that he couldn't tell what the medicine was, he didn't know what to do. But after a while, his eyes lit up and he turned to elder Zhu!

"Elder Zhu, you're asking for this medicine to help your brother recover, right?" Old master Zhao asked.

"Yes, I am." Boss Zhu answered honestly.

"Alright, since that's the case, let him take it!" Old master Zhao said without changing his expression,""It's reasonable to say that such an important medicine should be given to the family, one for elder BI's use and the other for safekeeping, but since you found it, I can't let you guys be disheartened, so I'll give you one back-let him take it as soon as possible!"

"This ..." Elder Zhu's face turned red! He'd expected this to happen, and that it was all part of Yushu's plan, but he still couldn't help but get angry at the old man's shameless words!

The two brothers had been working for the Hidden House Zhao for years. They had put in a lot of hard work, but not only did old Zhao let second Zhu test the medicine, he even shamelessly said that both medicines would go to the family, and even gave elder Zhu one as if he was giving alms!

Could it be that if the medicine had no side effects, old master Zhao would not have given him a single portion? At that thought, elder Zhu's heart was filled with sorrow. It seemed that relying on Lin Yi was a wise decision-serving these two people from house Zhao wasn't going to end well! As a dog, he had to have dignity!

"What's wrong, elder Zhu? You don't want to? If you don't want to, I'll just find a random disciple of the Zhao family and let him take it, but at that time, there won't be a share for Zhu laoer!" Old Zhao saw that elder Zhu was a little reluctant, so he threatened him.

It wasn't that he didn't want to find a disciple to try it out, but there were only two portions of the potion. If he tried one, who would he give the other one to? To second Zhu or elder bi? He should have given it to second Zhu, since he'd asked for it. He didn't keep it for himself, but reported it to the house immediately. However, it was better for the house to have elder BI's strength back.

So Grandpa Zhao had no choice but to let Zhu 'er be the test subject. One could say that Chen Yushu had already planned out their psychology, and everything was going according to their imagination.

"I ... I'm willing!" Elder Zhu took a deep breath and nodded."Originally, I asked for this medicine for my second brother so that he can recover his meridians. Since he's already in this state, instead of continuing to waste his time like this, it's better to have an attitude of either success or death and let him try!"

"En, it's good that you can think like this." Old master Zhao nodded in satisfaction, then said,""Elder Zhu, why don't you quickly invite your brother over?"

"Alright, I'll bring him over now!" Boss Zhu nodded and quickly said.

"Elder Mian, bring elder bi too!" Old master Zhao turned around and instructed old Mian.

"Yes, old master!" Elder Mian nodded quickly, but he felt a little bitter inside-these days, because of elder BI's injury, he'd replaced elder BI's position in the family, becoming one of the closest people to old Zhao-what would he do if elder bi came back? He didn't want to lose the position that he had worked so hard for!

But he couldn't go against the old man's wishes-he had to get elder bi! But he thought it through as soon as he left-it was true, elder bi recovered, but he'd break through into Sky Class as well-would Sky Class still be able to serve old Zhao like before?

It was obviously impossible-since he was Sky Class, he would definitely want to continue training. Even old Zhao wouldn't let him do these chores anymore-when the time came, these things would still fall on elder Mian!

Thinking of this, old Mian became happy.

Soon, second Zhu and elder bi arrived, both in wheelchairs. Second Zhu could walk now, but he didn't want to. Everyone understood that a practitioner would become a cripple, and everyone would be dispirited.

Elder bi was even more so-he was already awake, but his eyes were sunken like a man who hadn't rested for days, his face yellow and emaciated.

However, when he heard that there was a medicine that could help him recover, his eyes flashed with a strange light of joy!

Although Zhu laoer was also a little happy, he "knew" that he was a tester. His eyes still flashed with tension and worry from time to time. These subtle expressions were also seen by master Zhao. Although he did not suspect anything, he was more at ease when he saw this.

"Second brother Zhu, the potion is here. Your brother spent a lot of effort to get it. I hope you don't waste it!" As old master Zhao spoke, he had elder Mian pass one of the bowls to second brother Zhu.

Second brother Zhu took a deep breath and took the bowl of medicine. A trace of "determination" flashed in his eyes. Then he raised the bowl and drank the medicine inside ...

"Uh uh uh uh ... Hu hu hu ..." Zhu laoer's hand suddenly trembled, and the bowl fell to the ground and shattered. His face also suddenly turned red! Although he was mentally prepared and knew that the thing he drank would definitely be fine, the pain in his body still made him suck in a breath of cold air ...

Second Zhu's pained expression was seen by everyone, and they all had different expressions. First Zhu was extremely "worried," while old Zhao, Yao Wang, elder Mian, and elder bi were looking forward to it!

Although second Zhu was in pain, they also knew that it would be very painful to repair the meridians, and it would be very difficult to break through the barrier. This was normal. As long as he didn't die and could hold on, he was already half successful.

Soon, wisps of white smoke rose from Zhu laoer's head. His face became twisted, and he panted heavily. "Huhuhuhu" sounds were coming from his mouth. He was in as much pain as he could.

After struggling for more than an hour, second brother Zhu suddenly stood up and screamed,"ah!" Then his face gradually became red and normal, and his whole person seemed to be a lot more energetic in an instant! (To be continued.)
