LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

At this point, Vita intentionally paused and then added the last four words she wanted to say, “Turn you into medicine!”

Although she spoke these words, there was no trace of killing intent in Vita’s eyes. It seemed like she was just saying it casually. However, Sienna Lovall reacted differently, sneering as if she didn’t take Vita’s threat seriously. Instead, she retorted with resentment, “Apart from being skilled in alchemy, your mouth is your only talent!”

Unexpectedly, right after these words, an old voice suddenly came from the back of the tea room, “What about me? Am I skilled in my mouth or my hands?”

Hearing this voice, Sienna Lovall instinctively looked toward the back of the tea room. There, an old woman in a gray-black Daoist robe, carrying a basin of hot water, walked out. Seeing the face of this old woman, Sienna Lovall’s expression turned shocked. She couldn’t help but exclaim, “Rachel Chan? Are you still alive?”

This old woman, Rachel Chan, was also from Pinkriver Temple, but she was not an ordinary figure; she was the Supreme Elder of Pinkriver Temple. Even the temple master, Margaret Lovall, would kneel and pay respects to her. One could say that Rachel Chan was a living legend in the martial arts world, and even Margaret Lovall didn’t know her true age.

At this moment, Sienna Lovall couldn’t believe her eyes. Rachel Chan, whom she had personally seen passing away, was still alive. Didn’t she reach nirvana? Back then, Sienna Lovall and Margaret Lovall had personally buried her in a bronze coffin. How could she still be alive, and why was she following Vita?

Ignoring Sienna Lovall’s astonishment, Rachel Chan put the basin of hot water down by Vita’s feet. Then, in a sudden movement, Rachel Chan disappeared from where she stood, leaving only an afterimage. The next moment, a crisp sound echoed as Rachel Chan’s hand struck Sienna Lovall’s face.

Immediately, Sienna Lovall was sent flying out of her seat and landed outside the tea room. Before Sienna Lovall could recover from her shock, the elderly Rachel Chan, who had just slapped her, began coughing as if suddenly weakened. Despite this, after Rachel Chan’s coughing fit, she glared at Sienna Lovall and uttered a sentence, “Although I’m old, I can still kill you!”

Sienna Lovall, who had been thrown out, now looked at Rachel Chan with a changed expression. Meanwhile, Vita, sitting in the upper position, showed a hint of concern on her beautiful face, asking, “Rachel Chan, are you okay?”

Taking a deep breath, Rachel Chan suppressed the internal discomfort and replied in a soft voice, “I’m fine.” She then walked to Vita’s side, bent down, and removed Vita’s shoes and socks. Afterward, she immersed Vita’s feet in the hot water basin.

Watching this scene, Sienna Lovall’s face changed again. Something seemed off about Vita. Her feet, or rather her entire lower body, appeared immobilized. She was paralyzed! How did Vita become a cripple? No wonder she had been sitting motionless since Sienna Lovall arrived.

At this moment, as Rachel Chan continued to tend to Vita’s feet, she murmured, “Rest assured, before I die, I will return to Pinkriver Temple and kill Margaret Lovall to avenge you. She was truly ruthless. In pursuit of the temple master position, she actually made you take a defective Opening Meridian Pill. Otherwise, three years ago, you wouldn’t have ended up like this.”Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

Sienna Lovall, outside the door, listened to Rachel Chan’s words, her expression shifting from shock to a mix of horror and satisfaction. She hadn’t expected that Vita became a cripple because she took a defective Opening Meridian Pill. Taking a defective pill would usually lead to certain death. But Vita was not dead; she had become a paralyzed woman.

Regarding Rachel Chan, it seemed like she was determined to return to Pinkriver Temple and take revenge for Vita. However, with her frail and elderly appearance, even Sienna Lovall believed that if she used all her strength, she could slap Rachel Chan to death. Considering this, Sienna Lovall slowly got up from the ground.

However, she didn’t immediately confront Rachel Chan. Instead, Sienna Lovall harbored a deep resentment. Since both Vita and Rachel Chan considered Margaret Lovall their enemy, Sienna Lovall thought of waiting until Cedric Barnes arrived. Then, she could join forces with Cedric Barnes to kill them both.

While Sienna Lovall was contemplating this, Vita suddenly whispered something to Rachel Chan, “Sienna Lovall kept asking me if Cecelia Garner had come to see me. I wonder what she meant.”

Rachel Chan, slightly puzzled, turned to Sienna Lovall and asked, “Speak, why did you come to the Imperial City?”

Sienna Lovall smiled suddenly, “Naturally, I came to kill. First, Cecelia Garner, then the little wild seed, Jun Chester. I’ll bring him back to Pinkriver Temple, torture him, and execute him!”

Rachel Chan scoffed, “With what capability?”

Sienna Lovall smirked.

“Cedric Barnes is here too!” Rachel Chan and Vita’s expressions changed simultaneously. Sienna Lovall, capturing their reactions, grew even more confident and continued, “By the way, before Cedric Barnes and I came to the Imperial City, we had already found Cecelia Garner! Cecelia Garner took three palms from me and was hit by Cedric Barnes’ twelve poisoned soul silver needles. Now, she’s definitely on the brink of death! Otherwise, why do you think I came to Hyuny Temple? Just to cut off Cecelia Garner’s retreat!”

“Now it seems she didn’t come here for help but went to Rofu Lane to inform the little wild seed she gave birth to!” Sienna Lovall sneered. “However, judging by the current time, I’m sure Cedric Barnes, that little servant of mine, has already chased after Rofu Lane. He might have even disposed of that lowly mother and son by now!”

After these words, whether it was Vita or Rachel Chan, their faces became extremely solemn. Suddenly, Rachel Chan sighed, “For these years, I’ve been sewing a pair of boots for that kid every year. Now, I’ve already sewn six pairs. I never expected that in the end, I still couldn’t personally give them to him.”

Vita, unable to contain her emotions, whose face was usually indifferent to everything, turned extremely cold. She even crushed the teacup in her hand, and the shards cut her palm, but she remained oblivious, staring fiercely at Sienna Lovall outside the door. In a chilling tone, she said, “I, Vita, in the name of the legitimate temple master of Pinkriver Temple, announce a bounty: anyone who kills Margaret Lovall, Sienna Lovall, and Cedric Barnes will step into the Sixth Realm!”

Hearing this, Sienna Lovall sneered, “Vita, you’re a waste, unable to even take care of yourself. You want others to step into the Sixth Realm because of you? It’s a big joke! In other words, even if you have the ability, who in this world, apart from this old thing in front of you and me, would pay attention to your words today?”

As these words fell, outside the gates of Hyuny Temple, a faint voice was heard, “I have heard these words!”

Jun Chester had arrived!
