The Legend of the Guardians of the East Gate
Ch. 129 - Look like a mother.

That morning Zhi Yuan drove Hua Daiyan to the market not far from the fuxian village, buying some herbs with the help of a donkey cart. The two sat in a restaurant while enjoying their dishes, the atmosphere of the morning was so quiet in the restaurant that only a visitor was sitting in the corner of the room without glancing a single glance at the dish before him.

"Hehehe... There's no need to be too awkward like that son-in-law, eat like you normally do!" hua Daiyan revealed her small teeth behind her thick moustache, which saw the young man putting his fingers in front of his lips every time he bribed food.

Zhi Yuan only nodded, but his face seemed to change and stopped the chewing on his lips, and not long after a woman came up to them, and sat down beside Zhi Yuan, who was sitting next to him, the woman was a visitor who from earlier just silently watched the two people.

Hua Daiyan looked puzzled looking at the arrival of the woman, and was like asking Zhi Yuan.

Zhi Yuan rubbed his lips with the back of his hand and put down his chopsticks, staring at the woman beside him.

"You've been watching me for a few days, what do you want?" ask Zhi Yuan.

The woman simply raised her eyebrows towards Hua Daiyan like asking with Zhi Yuan.

"He's my father-in-law, I'm not hiding anything from him, so just tell me," said Zhi Yuan who had finished eating.

"Dad-in-law? did you marry that dying woman," said the woman who was none other than Counsel Ming.

Counselor Ming's words made Hua Daiyan's eyes widen and try to stand up but Zhi Yuan held her back from falling. Zhi Yuan closed his eyes like he had done something wrong to let the woman speak, in front of Hua Daiyan.

"What does your name mean?" hua Daiyan said with trembling lips.

"You're a healer, but unfortunately you don't know if your daughter won't go through another 10 years" Counselor Ming said.

"Quite Miss," said Zhi Yuan, making Counselor Ming smile cynically.

Hua Daiyan began to lose her temper, however,

"What kind of a son-in-law do you know something? please tell me," Hua Daiyan said.

Zhi Yuan's frown on his head felt pierced by something, and it was seen that Councillor Ming closed his eyes, with two fingers docked and the woman's eyes opened, and began to enter Zhi Yuan's mind, but the young man who could see the white steam with the Munzhi clan's symbol in the air using the blood mist formation defense technique made Counselor Ming wide-eyed and stopped his technique.

"Uhukkk.." the woman coughed and could not believe that Zhi Yuan could see her curse.

The woman's lips opened and rubbed a bit of blood on the corner of her lips, but her face seemed so satisfied that she could already see a bit of memory from Zhi Yuan.

"Hahaha." the woman laughed as she shook her head,

"ahhhh.... I've been doing things for nothing all this time, at least I didn't break my promise to my grumpy sister" Ming murmured as he was so happy and stared fixedly at Hua Daiyan.

"Miss I've never killed a woman before, lest I do it today" Zhi Yuan said.

Counselor Ming paid no heed to Zhi Yuan's words and began to talk to Hua Daiyan.

"Listen to me, your daughter and your second daughter-in-law are dying, your daughter is missing a white dantian, and this young man her bones are starting to porous, I hope they can have a descent before two years," said Counselor Ming.

"Miss is enough," said Zhi Yuan starting to hold the hilt of his sword, with the murderous air that began to be felt in that simple restaurant, there was no doubt in the cold eyes of the young man, making Counselor Ming only smile and shut up and let the two leave that dining table after putting some silver coins on the table.

"Father-in-law go home first" said Zhi Yuan, who had left Counselor Ming still sitting at the table, with an indifferent gaze.

"I'll explain everything father-in-law, everything.and can only the two of us know!?" said Zhi Yuan and helped Hua Daiyan get on the donkey wagon and delivered by his donkey coachman.

Counselor Ming and Zhi Yuan had already traced the path to the fuxian village, the,

"What do you want?" zhi Yuan asked, pausing and gazing towards Counselor Ming.

"You don't even know who I am, my sister's exaggerating about you, you're so disappointing, come on the lion cubs show your counting skills" Ming said.

Zhi Yuan stared in the other direction,

"Miss Counselor Ming, you lost your fortune telling ability, and if you survive the odds of me killing you are 0 percent, but if you attack the odds of you winning are 87 percent, and the odds of you getting injured are 12 percent, and the chance of dying at my hands is only 1 percent" Zhi Yuan said.

Advisory Ming's lips slightly opened,

"How do you know I'm Counselor Ming and everything you said just now? my sister couldn't possibly discuss that little thing with you, even the healer Hua who had seen me in the palace didn't recognize my current appearance" Adviser Ming said.

"That shitty grandfather didn't talk about you, I just saw a mark on your forehead you're of course the firebender, and looking at the diamond under your ear it's the tail of the constellation formation on your back, showing you're also a fortune teller, but your fingers are blistered by burns, too, a firebender burns only by his own fire, so your mood is being out of control, which makes an uncontrollable fortune teller just one loses his sight, he said, and only Counselor Ming knows if Hua Mulan has a white dantian, and you're too young to be the elder brother of that old man from the Munzhi clan" Zhi Yuan said.

Counselor Ming nodded, and gazed towards the estate.

"You're so young and overconfident with your abilities, remember that the Munzhi clan is a monstrous clan, there are some people who can read memories like me, even better than me, they are able to manipulate one's mind, and kill only through dreams, if you die it's natural, but your family should not be dragged away, close your mind to my sister's book," said Counselor Ming, who would have trouble if he got dragged along with the hero of the Munzhi clan if he ever found the young man.

Zhi Yuan simply kept silent, and realizing his arrogance, all the woman's words were true, but started to get excited as he had already found a hope for Hua Mulan.

"Miss there's something I want to ask you, where did you hide Hua Mulan's dantian?" ask Zhi Yuan.

Counselor Ming shook his head as if recalling his past,

"Do I look like your mother? if you ask like a kid, believe me you won't get what you want, you can't get something just because you want it, learn to negotiate and look for my weaknesses," said Counselor Ming.

Zhi Yuan nodded, taking out a badge belonging to Hua Daiyan.

"Well, like there's nothing you need from me, I'll go" Zhi Yuan said.

"Wait on!! I think your future wife's life is very important, well that badge seems to be able to restore your wife's dantian, and in return you should be my follower, would you agree?" ask Counselor Ming.

"I agree," Zhi Yuan said without thinking anymore.

"You made a decision so quickly" said Counselor Ming.

"the remaining 10 years of my life, maybe this is the only chance of getting a Hua Mulan cure, I can't miss it, or I'll regret it for the rest of my life, like that blood-snowing night," zhi Yuan said as if talking to himself, recalling the death of Goddess Zhang Ziyi due to his stupidity.

Counselor Ming only took a deep breath, though,

"Well, meet me at the north gate of the Imperial palace in four days, have fun for four days, because a white dantian will make your wife focus only on her own pleasure, maybe it will forget about you, hihihi is very sad indeed, and use this servant's clothes when meeting me!" said Counselor Ming.
