The Strongest Prodigy Doctor

"Impossible, right? I also thought that Sect Leader seemed really strong, stronger than any of them, and acted ruthlessly, definitely their Sect Leader!" Chenyuan Zhenren said in confusion.

"No, I always felt something was off. Not only the Sect Leader seemed odd, but Guang Meili also seemed odd. It was like the Sect Leader kept looking at Guang Meili too often!" the City Guard Elder pondered and said.

"Could it be that Guang Meili is the Sect Leader's mistress?" Old Monkey chuckled and said, "It's terrifying, he doesn't even spare his subordinates."

"What are you saying! That's impossible. Besides, that so-called Sect Leader always seemed to look at Guang Meili before speaking, as if Guang Meili was signaling him for permission to speak," the City Guard Elder said.

"Now that you mention it, that seems to be the case!" Chenyuan Zhenren thought for a moment and said.

"I say, Chenyuan, do you have any stance? Do you believe everything others say?" Elder Huo quickly said as he noticed Chenyuan Zhenren had been persuaded.

If even Chenyuan Zhenren stands with Tian Chu Zhenren, no one would support him. It's not that Elder Huo wants to oppose Tian Chu Zhenren, but he believes the Sect Leader is simply the Sect Leader, and there's no one behind the scenes. If there is a mastermind, things would be too complicated, and Elder Huo, who dislikes trouble, doesn't want things to be so troublesome.

"Old Moneybags, what do you think? Isn't the Sect Leader just the Sect Leader?" Elder Huo looked at Old Moneybags.

Who knew Old Moneybags would smile and say, "Don't look at me, I don't know anything. When I entered, they had already started fighting. I don't know what happened before the fight!"

Upon hearing this, Elder Huo became dispirited and said to Tian Chu Zhenren, "Fine, you win. Whatever you say goes!"

Tian Chu Zhenren frowned upon hearing this and said to Elder Huo, "Be serious, we are now discussing something important!"

Elder Huo sighed deeply and said, "Alright, I actually think there's something wrong with the Sect Leader too. Although he has the aura of a Sect Leader, there's something amiss. Every time he speaks, it seems he has to think about it first; he doesn't respond immediately. The pause is too long. His eyes show no emotional fluctuation, giving off an impression of a puppet!"

"You think there's something wrong with the Sect Leader, but you said there wasn't?" Old Monkey said puzzled.

"Too troublesome!" Elder Huo said.

"Too troublesome?" Old Monkey didn't understand what Elder Huo was talking about!

"Yes, if this Sect Leader is not the actual Sect Leader, then this so-called Sect Leader is just a figurehead. There must be someone behind the scenes, and we need to find out who it is. That would be too troublesome!" Elder Huo shook his head and said.

After hearing what Elder Huo said, everyone didn't know what to say.

So, Tian Chu Zhenren just bypassed him and said to everyone, "Since everyone feels there's something wrong with this Sect Leader, maybe he's not the true Sect Leader, or only a public figure. There might be someone else in control behind the scenes. I suspect it's Guang Meili, because every time the so-called Sect Leader wants to speak, he looks at her first, as if listening to something before speaking himself. Even though this happens very briefly, it's repeated every time, making it easy to spot the flaw."

"I feel the same way. And Guang Meili gives me a very familiar feeling. She's definitely using someone else's appearance; her true consciousness belongs to someone I know!" Chenyuan Zhenren said.

"Now that you mention it, Guang Meili does feel familiar to me too, like an old friend!" the City Guard Elder agreed.

"I think I know who it is, but the name is on the tip of my tongue and I can't say it!" Elder Huo said.

"Although I didn't deliberately sense their aura, Guang Meili is definitely someone we're familiar with and close to. It feels too familiar, but due to the lapse of time, I can't recall it immediately," Tian Chu Zhenren said thoughtfully.

"Could it be Zhan Hua's sister, Linghua? It feels just like her," Old Moneybags suddenly said. From the moment he entered, he felt Guang Meili's aura was familiar. Although he didn't feel it when he first saw Guang Meili, this time, the sensation was quite strong. Old Moneybags clearly remembered this aura, but because he was in combat earlier, he didn't mention it. After they returned and everyone else felt familiarity, he thought his feeling was likely correct!

"Linghua?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard the name, and then the aura from Guang Meili began to fuse with the aura in their memories.

"What? Linghua, my sister Linghua? Impossible, she's so kind. How could she do such a thing?" Granny Zhanhua exclaimed. She stopped restoring her Spiritual Power upon hearing Old Moneybags, incredulously. Despite not entering the fray and being unaware of the situation inside, she was still listening while restoring her Spiritual Power. When Old Moneybags mentioned that the mastermind behind the demon was her younger sister Linghua, she stopped and spoke up.

"I wondered why it felt so familiar, turns out it's Zhanhua's little sister, Linghua!" Old Monkey said in disbelief, "It's terrifying, such a pure and kind girl turned into a villain!"

Just as Old Monkey finished speaking, Granny Zhanhua swung a punch at him. The force of this punch was stronger than when she had just rescued Tian Chu Zhenren and the others.

Everyone could hear Granny Zhanhua's thunderous voice, "I said, that is not my sister, don't you understand?"

Old Monkey wanted to dodge the punch but found he didn't have time to react. He had been slightly injured earlier. If he dodged with all his might, he could avoid it, but it would worsen his injuries. If he didn't dodge, he would also get hurt. Old Monkey was torn about whether to dodge or not.

But while being torn, he found he couldn't dodge anymore. Old Monkey closed his eyes, waiting for the blow.

Just as Old Monkey prepared to take the hit.
