628: The Guilty Gu Li

The Guilty Gu Li

"Hmm…he is fine now."2

It was a few moments later, that Master Wong said these words.

Gu Li also looked relieved now as his master's face was no longer blue. The redness on his face was returning little by little.

"Clean him. He will wake up within a shichen."

Master Wong said casually and then held Mi Luan's other hand to pull him out of the tent. However, when he walked a step away, he realized that Gu Li was holding his disciple's other hand.

He was ready t fight again but now he suddenly seemed to realize that fighting or arguing with Gu Li was equivalent to colliding his head against a wall. The young man was more powerful than him so he tried a softer way. 

"I need to change his clothes. What if he got sick? I know a few poisons. I promise you that I will mix those in your food tonight if my little disciple caught even cold."

Sure enough, worry flashed in Gu Li's eyes when he saw that Mi Luan's thoughts were still wet. So he nodded his head and left him reluctantly.

However, Mi Luan had taken one step when Gu Li held his hand again and said stubbornly

"I will change his clothes."

Master Wong's eyes widened as well as Mi Luan's. Master Wong didn't realize but Mi Luan seems to feel that this wouldn't end in a good way.

He had a feeling that he would have to change his clothes in front of Gu Li himself as the latter would want to rest assured that he didn't get any injury anywhere else.

Master Wong looked at his little disciple and asked him

"I have brought new clothes for you. Don't you want to wear them?"

He winked at Mi Luan who immediately nodded his head and said

"Yes, Shifu. I want to wear those clothes."

With this, Mi Luan also pulled his hand out of Gu Li's hold who didn't dare to apply much force as he had seen scratches on Mi Luan's hands.

Master Wong sighed in relief and immediately dragged him out of the tent before Gu Li could again hold his little disciple or say anything else.

Gu Li stepped out of his master's tent after he had cleaned him completely with Rong Ting. He strictly asked Rong Ting not to leave the master's side.

Rong Ting seriously complied. He was already disappointed in himself for disappointing his senior brother once and he was not going to let it happen again.

After stepping out of the tent, the first thing that Gu Li did was to look for Mi Luan. When the shadow guard pointed towards a tent, he walked towards it. The tent face was towards the other side so he couldn't see its entrance.

Before walking toward the tent, Gu Li asked all the shadow guards to drop those physicians back in their village.

After that, he finally decided to find Mi Luan. On walking to the front of the tent, Gu Li frowned deeply when he saw Master Wong standing outside the tent.

"What are you doing outside?"

He asked Master Wong and Master Wong looked at him as if he saying 'are you crazy. When he saw Gu Li's questioning eyes, he said casually

"My little disciple is changing his clothes. Of Course, I will stand outside for him."

Gu Li frowned and looked at Master Wong with scrutiny while Master Wong also seemed to realize that he had said something wrong.

He gulped as he avoided looking into Gu Li's eyes thinking of some excuse and he finally came up with one.

"Little Luan doesn't like to change his clothes in front of anyone else."

Gu Li nodded his head at Master Wong's face as he already knew this though his eyes were still not free of doubt. Master Wong's eyes widened and he immediately blocked Gu Li's way when he saw the latter trying to step inside the tent.

"What are you doing?"

He asked Gu Li loudly.

"I will go inside and check if he has injuries anywhere else."

However, Master Wong shook his head like a rattle and said 

"You don't need to. Little Luan is a sensible boy. He would tell me if the injury was serious. He is also very capable of treating his own injury."

Gu Li would have surely argued but Master Wong's last few words caught his attention and he asked him 

"Xiao Luan knows about medicines."

When it came to praising his little and favorite disciple, Master Wong would never shy away and be lack at words.

"Medicines….I am sure that no one is as capable as my little disciple in this field in this whole Xin. Ha…in a few years…he will be like a brightening sun in the sky for everyone. Everyone would stretch their necks to see him as he would climb the stairs of his ability and cross everyone on his path."

Master Wong had dreamy eyes as he said all this and wanted to continue.

But just at this moment, Mi Luan stepped out of the tent.

Both of them immediately looked toward him.   

"Ah…"

Master Wong shouted in excitement.

"Little Luan looks so beautiful…ah…I mean handsome."

He also patted his little disciple's shoulders joyously as he said these words. Gu Li also agreed with Master Wong's words perhaps for the first time.

His Xiao Luan indeed looked very handsome in the clothes his shifu had brought for him. He also thought of buying some new clothes for Mi Luan in the future.

But at this moment, he was more worried about something else.

"Xiao Luan"

He called out gently. When Mi Luan looked at him, Gu Li didn't know what he should think.

He was feeling guilty because he didn't believe Mi Luan when he was saying that he could treat his master. Instead, he scolded him. 

He wanted to apologize but looking at Mi Luan's clean black eyes that were free of any anger, Gu Li could only wonder inside his heart.

Was Xiao Luan even angry at him?
