Chapter 156

Xiao Zimo brought Xiao Han to the Yellow Horn Tree.

"Why did you bring me here?" Xiao Han asked puzzledly.

"This place, I used to come here often when I was little, and the tree wasn't this big back then."

"So this is where you have childhood memories!" Xiao Han plucked a tree leaf and laughed: "Xiao Zimo, I've always been very curious, who did you learn your medical skills from? Especially how you even know how to perform a cesarean section?"

"My dad used to be a folk doctor, and he often used me to test medicine, I grew up being soaked in medicine since I was little, and almost died several times."

"Ah? Your dad is so irresponsible?"

"My mother died from difficult labor when giving birth to me, so my dad was always brooding over it. So he kept researching on how to make it smooth for women with difficult labor to safely give birth to children, and later thought of cesarean section through scraping bone therapy, but he never put it into practice, he only recorded it in his medical books."

Xiao Zimo had merely comprehended and practiced his dad's theories.

"I see...turns out the wisdom of the ancients is not to be underestimated, you and your dad are amazing!" Xiao Han gave him a thumbs up.

Xiao Zimo smiled and held her hand, "Hanhan, I've given it serious thoughts, although you won't be able to stay here for too long, I still want to worship and marry you."

Xiao Han was stunned and looked at him, "Why?"

"Only after worshipping and marrying will you be considered my wife. Don't worry, we will only worship, I won't force you to consummate. Even if you return to your world in the future, it won't affect you marrying someone else; but...I hope that you can become my wife here. I will always treat you as Xiao Zimo's wife for the rest of my life."

Xiao Han looked at him for a long time without answering. She didn't know why, but a surge of sadness welled up in her heart all of a sudden.

She had always felt that love was the most useless thing, it only brings more troubles.

But the time spent getting to know Xiao Zimo made her understand that love is actually a double-edged sword.

People also have no way of controlling their own feelings. Only after experiencing it yourself can you understand the various flavors.

While Xiao Han was lost in thought, a breeze came gently, blowing countless dandelion seeds from afar.

The white dandelion seeds danced beautifully in the air, a sight to behold.

As Xiao Han watched the sky full of dandelion seeds, it seemed like everything suddenly cleared up in her heart.

She turned her head and smiled at Xiao Zimo, "Alright, I'll marry you! It's just a worship ceremony anyway!"

This was the first time she had feelings for a man. I'll just take it as giving myself an explanation!

Xiao Zimo also smiled, and suddenly pulled hard on her hand. Caught off guard, Xiao Han bent down.

Xiao Zimo leaned over and kissed her lips. Under the sea of dandelion seeds, they formed the most beautiful picture.

Not far away, Yuan Zhan and Liu Yan were waving big fans with all their might, sending all the dandelion seeds flying from them.

"Ah, they kissed, look they kissed!" Liu Yan said excitedly as she pulled Yuan Zhan closer.

Yuan Zhan was just turning his head when his lips happened to brush Liu Yan's lips.

The two froze immediately, and stopped waving their fans.

"I...I'm sorry..." Yuan Zhan stuttered out an apology in embarrassment.

Liu Yan's face turned red as she immediately got up and ran away.

Xiao Han saw Liu Yan running out from the nearby bushes, and called for her to stop.

Then she saw Yuan Zhan also running out from the bushes.

Xiao Han was shocked and opened her mouth, "Liu Yan...what were you two doing?"

Xiao Han walked over, and only then realized all the dandelion seeds were flying from them.

"So it was you creating the romantic atmosphere?"

Xiao Zimo pushed the wheelchair over and laughed, "Well done, Yuan Zhan."

Yuan Zhan scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly, "It was all Liu Yan's idea..."

"Oh my, now you even address her so intimately!" Xiao Han teased.

Yuan Zhan was unusually flustered, "Miss Xiao, stop teasing me..."

Xiao Han laughed, "Yuan Zhan, it feels weird for you to address me like this now! You were more adorable in the past!"

Yuan Zhan felt frustrated. In the past, not knowing Xiao Han was female, he had said many unpleasant things and argued with her every day. Now that Xiao Han was about to become the young master's wife, he naturally didn't dare speak to her that way anymore.

"I was tactless in the past. I hope Miss Xiao doesn't take it to heart."

"Do I look like someone who takes things to heart?" Xiao Han put her arm around Liu Yan's shoulder and laughed, "How can I not be considered your matchmaker?"

"Sis Xiao, stop saying that...we aren't even together yet..." Liu Yan was embarrassed to death, "I...I still have things to do, I'm going back first."

After saying that, Liu Yan immediately ran off.

"Tsk, she's too shy!"

"Hanhan, go back first, I have some things I want to say to Yuan Zhan." Xiao Zimo said.

"Okay, I'll go tell my sisters about us!" After saying that, Xiao Han turned and left.

Xiao Zimo looked at Yuan Zhan and directly asked, "Yuan Zhan, you like Miss Liu, don't you?"

"I..." Yuan Zhan hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth, "Yes, young master."

Xiao Zimo smiled, "That's good news. You've been by my side for so many years, it's rare for you to meet someone you like. You should boldly pursue her."

Yuan Zhan understood Xiao Zimo's meaning, but he knew Liu Yan wouldn't leave Lianhua Village, and he didn't want to leave Xiao Zimo's side either. So he had never clearly told Liu Yan that he wanted to marry her.

"Yuan Zhan, you have your own life and choices, you shouldn't keep staying by my side." Xiao Zimo said.

"Young master, are you chasing me away?"

"I'm not chasing you away. It makes me happy to see you stay here and live with the one you love, but if you want to come to Medical Poison Valley in the future, you'll always be welcome anytime."

Xiao Zimo paused, then continued, "No one will accompany anyone for a lifetime. In this world, we will always face parting, but since we still have a chance to meet, it can't be considered a true parting."

Xiao Zimo looked into the distance as he spoke, as if there were deeper meanings behind his words.

Once he and Xiao Han parted ways, perhaps they wouldn't get to see each other again in this lifetime.

After hearing Xiao Zimo's words, Yuan Zhan suddenly understood.

Liking Liu Yan didn't conflict with his loyalty to Xiao Zimo.

He suddenly knelt down on one knee and cupped his fist at Xiao Zimo, solemnly saying: "Thank you, young master! No matter where I am, as long as the young master needs me, Yuan Zhan will come to the young master's side at any time!"

Just as Yuan Zhan finished speaking, a gust of wind blew, and a few tree leaves fell down, even cutting through Yuan Zhan and Xiao Zimo's clothes.

"Be careful, young master!"

A black shadow descended from the sky, accompanied by countless tree leaves, charging at Xiao Zimo and Yuan Zhan.

Yuan Zhan wielded his sword to block the tree leaves with extremely strong killing power. Xiao Zimo's eyes condensed as he opened his folding fan, sending out countless golden needles.

Like a ghost, the black shadow's sword suddenly softened, coiling around all the golden needles. With a wave of his hand, all the golden needles were inserted into the Yellow Horn Tree!

In order to protect Xiao Zimo, Yuan Zhan charged forward. After just a few moves, he was stabbed by the black shadow and slammed heavily onto the ground, falling unconscious.

Only then did Xiao Zimo realize this person's martial arts was too high, far beyond what he could beat!

Seeing the black shadow's sword chopping down, Xiao Zimo took a desperate gambit as his folding fan in his hand flew out, the edges instantly turning into sharp blades rushing at the black shadow.

At this critical moment, the black shadow suddenly saw Xiao Zimo's face and his eyes revealed shock.

His sword tip took a sudden turn as he flipped his body to dodge Xiao Zimo's folding fan, but a strand of his hair was still cut off by the folding fan.

And his sword also slid past Xiao Zimo's neck, cutting off a strand of Xiao Zimo's hair and leaving a thin bloody line on his neck.

Xiao Zimo looked at the black-clothed man wearing half a mask, knowing that he had suddenly shown mercy, otherwise his neck would have already been cut.

"Who are you?" they asked in unison.

"You came to kill me without knowing who I am?" Xiao Zimo retorted.

"Are you the owner of Medical Poison Valley?"

"That's right."

The black-clothed man slowly took off his mask, revealing a slightly familiar face.

When Xiao Zimo saw his face, he was exceptionally surprised. "You...you are...Bai Yichen?"

"It's me...Xiao Zimo, long time no see." The faceless man said.
