I Can See Through All Things' Information

"Master, just now, Lord Ma sent his men to deliver a letter, and it mentioned some matters. I believe it's necessary to let you know about it."

At this moment, Lu Qing said.

"Oh, what's it about?"

Seeing Lu Qing's serious expression, the elder doctor couldn't help but look grave.

He knew his disciple had some ties with Ma Gu from the market.

Could it be he's encountered some difficult issue that required Lu Qing's help?

"The letter has it all in detail; please, Master, take a look."

Lu Qing took out the letter that Xiao Tian had delivered.

The elder doctor took the letter, opened it, and as he read, his face gradually grew more somber.

"I didn't expect that such a big incident would happen in the city in just a few days."

After reading the letter, the elder doctor showed a look of exclamation.

"Master, the city is now a mix of dragons and snakes, and the situation is hard to discern. Perhaps you, Elder, should refrain from entering the city for the time being," Lu Qing said.

He knew that his master would occasionally go to the city to deliver medicinal materials, but given the current situation in the county, he genuinely did not wish for his master to go there.

"That's probably best; I've not been eager to go about lately anyway, and since it's so troublesome in the city, I won't go."

The elder doctor thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement.

Although he followed the principle of medical benevolence, he was not old-fashioned.

Knowing the city had become a powder keg, he naturally wouldn't go looking for trouble.

Seeing his master agree, Lu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

He was afraid his master would be too kind-hearted and want to go heal and aid the injured, which could complicate matters.

Now it seemed that regarding these issues, his master had a good sense of judgment.

"However, Ah Qing, you must be careful yourself. I see the letter mentions that the Black Wolf Gang seems to be stirring again. You've offended them before, and they might seek revenge," the elder doctor cautioned.

"I will be cautious, Master."

In the following days, Lu Qing continued to live his life with the usual rhythm, regimented and careful.

But when going out, he took extra precautions.

Occasionally, he would go to the market and seek out Xiao Tian to gather some information.

From Xiao Tian, he indeed received plenty of news from the city.

For instance, as more and more martial artists gathered in the city, the situation in the county rapidly changed.

The county was only so big, and the sudden influx of martial artists naturally led to conflicts.

It was common to see martial artists starting fights in the streets over trivial disagreements, resulting in blood staining the sidewalks.

Some martial artists began to subjugate local forces for their enjoyment.

Those who resisted were immediately destroyed, while those who complied could cling to the powerful entities and rapidly inflate their strength, becoming one of the major forces in the county.

Among them, the Black Wolf Gang was a prime example.

The gang leader, Black Wolf, had somehow persuaded several powerful martial artists to join the Black Wolf Gang.

Among these fighters, some were even on the powerful level of the Inner Organ Realm.

This had made the Black Wolf Gang one of the mightiest forces in the city, their arrogance boundless.

In short, the current situation in the city was in complete disarray, a veritable mess, with people dying every day.

If not for the County Lord Mansion's declaration forbidding martial artists from harassing civilians, the county would have likely descended into chaos long ago.

The County Lord Mansion represented the royal capital's dignity, and on the surface, martial artists still dared not blatantly defy its orders.

But even so, many civilians in the city still fled to temporarily avoid trouble, planning to return once the turbulence subsided.

With such chaos in the city, what went against Lu Qing's expectations, was that the Wei Mansion had remained standing.

The brazen martial artists, despite causing a significant stir in the city, had not yet attacked the Wei Mansion.

Both sides seemed to be maintaining some sort of tacit understanding, waiting for something.

This made Lu Qing sense something unusual in the air.
