Chapter 63 - 63 63 Identity Revelation
?63: Chapter 63 Identity Revelation 63: Chapter 63 Identity Revelation An Yiqing pressed her hand against her throbbing forehead.
Was she supposed to be in a good mood?
A good mood for taking a crap?
Or for cleaning up the warehouse?
She really was curious about who the person in charge of “Red Thorn” actually was.
As An Yiqing opened the door, she observed that the warehouse was not very large and was filled with various office supplies.
Clearly, it truly was a warehouse.
At that moment, the sound of footsteps came from the inner room, and a man appeared in front of An Yiqing.
…
“Is it you?”
“Why is it you?”
An Yiqing was surprised, and the red-haired man in front of her was also taken aback.
Tan Yulin’s eyes widened; of course, he had seen this girl before; she was the exceptional beauty on whose behalf the boss had become furiously enraged that one time!
What was she doing here?!
“You, you, you—” Tan Yulin stuttered in shock, pointing at the girl.
“I am from the Medicine Sect.” An Yiqing, at this moment, had a full head of metaphorical black lines.
So, it turned out that Gu Yelin was the person in charge of “Red Thorn,” the very one who came up with that bizarre secret passphrase!
“Boss, boss, boss…” Tan Yulin stuttered, unable to articulate a coherent sentence.
“He didn’t know, and I didn’t know either,” An Yiqing answered Tan Yulin’s unvoiced question.
“Gulp!” Tan Yulin swallowed his saliva, striving to calm himself down.
He took a careful look at the girl in front of him, “Are you the disciple of the Sect Leader of the Medicine Sect?” She seemed too young for her role.
Could she really manage it?
“Guaranteed genuine.”
Wow!
The status of the Medicine Sect truly was exceptional!
“Follow me,” Tan Yulin nodded his head, having calmed down.
If she was from the Medicine Sect, she couldn’t be bad.
He took out a strange object from his pocket and handed it to An Yiqing, “As per ‘Red Thorn’s’ rules, non-members have to be blindfolded when entering the base.
I hope you understand.”
“Sure,” An Yiqing nodded in cooperation, putting on the strange object.
As it turned out, the object was a special blindfold resistant to any high-tech penetration, but for An Yiqing, who possessed the ability to see through objects, it was just an ornament.
However, she had already determined there was no danger here and decided to simply close her eyes and let Tan Yulin lead the way.
“Just walk straight ahead, there are no obstacles,” Tan Yulin said as he walked.
To his surprise, he discovered that there was not a single sound of footsteps following him.
It seemed her Inner Breath was so profound that even he couldn’t detect any noise.
“We’re entering the elevator now, it’ll be a bit shaky in a moment.”
An Yiqing only felt Tan Yulin leading her through various twists and turns to a sealed space.
It turned out to be an elevator, and An Yiqing steadied herself against the elevator wall as it shook slightly.
The elevator seemed to sway back and forth like a swing, the force strong, and she felt as if she were spinning, rising and falling within a spinning top.
It appeared that ‘Red Thorn’ had a certain uniqueness that made it formidable; judging by its defenses and technology, even in Country Jin, such sophistication must be rare.
After about ten minutes, the elevator gradually stopped its movement.
Fortunately, An Yiqing was in good physical condition; if it had been an ordinary person, they would have been severely nauseated by now.
“We’re here, you can take off the blindfold now.”
An Yiqing slowly removed the blindfold, and there was no painful burst of light.
She found herself in a spacious corridor with walls made of special materials, soundproof and bulletproof, with a soft carpet underfoot and gentle lighting all around.
It seemed to be a very ordinary corridor, but An Yiqing keenly detected a faint gear noise.
It looked like behind this corridor, many deadly traps were hidden.
Tan Yulin led An Yiqing for a while until they reached a large door.
They went through password entry, fingerprint scanning, retina verification, DNA extraction, and a number of complex security clearances before they passed through several sturdy doors, with An Yiqing finally entering the interior of the “Red Thorn” base.
It was different from what she had imagined; there was nothing peculiar about it, it resembled a common office building.
“We’ve arrived at the conference room, and everyone who should be here has arrived.
The boss is inside,” Tan Yulin showed his teeth in a small grin and winked ambiguously at An Yiqing.
Inside the meeting room, Gu Yelin sat firmly in the principal seat, while the others sat at the conference table, the room eerily quiet.
Everyone expected had arrived, except for the disciple of the Sect Leader of the Medicine Sect.
“Humph, General Gu, the Divine Doctor you invited really is a big shot!” someone was the first to express their dissatisfaction.
“Indeed!
He really thinks he’s a Divine Doctor, making us all wait for him!”
Gu Yelin glanced at the speakers, his dark eyes revealing no emotion, “If you can’t wait, then leave, and handle your own affairs from now on.” His deep voice, carrying a trace of ice, swept towards the people.
The chatterers immediately fell silent.
At that moment, “Creak—” a faint sound broke the awkward, icy atmosphere.
The crowd looked towards the door at the sound, and saw a slender figure appearing before them.
Seeing the girl at the doorway, Bai Yiming, who was drinking coffee, choked; Duan Tang, who had been fanning himself, froze; and even Gu Yelin, who had been cold and aloof moments before, was momentarily stunned.
An Yiqing, who opened the door, blinked her eyes, a flash of surprise in her watery gaze.
Gu Yelin was expected, but why were Bai Yiming and Duan Tang also here?
“Cough, cough, cough, little girl, what are you doing here?!” Bai Yiming coughed twice, asking in surprise.
“Er, I am the disciple of the Sect Leader of the Medicine Sect.”
“What did you say?!” Bai Yiming raised his voice.
What did she just say?
“I am the disciple of the Sect Leader of the Medicine Sect,” An Yiqing patiently repeated once more.
After An Yiqing spoke, the atmosphere in the room once again fell into a strange silence.
These people were all influential figures in their own right, and naturally, they had heard of the Medicine Sect, a distinctive existence in Xuanjin.
Rumors had it that the people of the Medicine Sect could revive the dead and mend bones, their medical expertise was unimaginably advanced!
Especially Sect Leader Ye Chenghong, although he had been in seclusion for many years, his renown still endured.
Those who had been treated by Ye Chenghong never forgot his kindness.
Hissss—was this girl really Ye Chenghong’s disciple?!
She looked far too young!
While everyone had their own thoughts, Gu Yelin stood up and strode towards An Yiqing, his gaze intensely fixed on the girl he hadn’t seen for a week, “I’ve been busy these past days and didn’t have time to see you.”
“Um, it’s okay.
I’ve been busy too,” An Yiqing struggled to suppress her racing heart.
She hadn’t seen this man for a week and felt like something was missing.
