Chapter 147 - Doctor

"Huo Ling."

Huo Ling almost jumped in fright when he heard Yi Bing's voice behind him. He immediately turned. "Yi Bing." He called.

"Where are you running to?" Yi Bing asked as he pulled Huo Ling. "Let's go." he said. He didn't wait for Huo Ling to answer before he teleported both of them back to where Di San and the others. However, before they left the place, he glanced across the street.

Across the street, Hao Baiyun stood frozen where he was standing. "Young master?" he heard Fei Xuli called..

Hao Baiyun didn't answered. Earlier, he saw Huo Ling was standing alone. When a car passed by then left, he saw a man appeared beside Huo Ling. Then, the man glanced at them – no, him. Then, when another car passed and left, Huo Ling and the man had disappeared. "Who is he?" he muttered.

"Young master, what's wrong?" Fei Xuli asked.

"I… saw Huo Ling." Hao Baiyun said.

"What?" Fei Xuli said.

"Wasn't he in the villa? Did he resurrect?" Jing Yu asked.

"No. It was his soul I saw. Just now." Hao Baiyun said and again stared at the place where Huo Ling was earlier.

Fei Xuli and Jing Yu were stunned. "Jing Yu." Fei Xuli called.

Jing Yu nodded and then disappeared from where he stood half-second earlier. "Will Jing Yu found him?" Hao Baiyun asked. Before Fei Xuli could answer, Hao Baiyun shook his head. "No. It's better if Huo Ling can't be found." He said. "I already having a hard time hiding Huo Ling's body. I don't know when will the Hao family find it. If I'd also have Huo Ling's soul…" he pressed his lips tight. "Huo Ling can't be resurrected." He said.

Fei Xuli nodded. "Not only the Hao family, but also the Walter family will use him however the two families want if he'd just live again." He said.

Hao Baiyun sighed. "I hope that man takes him far, far away???" he said.

"'that man'?" Fei Xuli was puzzled.

"There was a man with Huo Ling earlier." Hao Baiyun explained. "That man… isn't an ordinary man." He said. "Call Jing Yu back." He told Fei Xuli.

"Yes!" Fei Xuli answered and dialed Jing Yu's number. However, Jing Yu wasn't picking up.

Jing Yu can't pick up his phone since his legs and arms were wrapped by ice.

"Yi Bing…" Huo Ling called as he glanced at Jing Yu who had a blank look on his face. "Someone's calling him. Can you release him?" he asked.

"He can smell your scent. He's not an ordinary yao." Yi Bing told Huo Ling.

"Oh." Huo Ling said as he stared at Jing Yu. "But… he seemed harmless?" he said.

Yi Bing didn't answer. However, Jing Yu spoke. "You can't be resurrected." He told Huo Ling.

"What?"

"Young master Hao wants you to go away. You can't go back to your body." Jing Yu straightforwardly said.

Yi Bing looked surprised, but he calmed down after. Meanwhile, Huo Ling is very confused. "So, our goal is the same." Yi Bing said.

"Huh? What goal? Yi Bing, what are you and him are talking about? Can you enlighten me?" Huo Ling asked.

However, the two didn't seem to hear him. "I can hide Huo Ling. However, I want to know who is that person who informed you where Huo Ling is." Yi Bing told Jing Yu.

"That person?" Jing Yu said and pondered. Then, he shook his head. "Don't know. I'll ask Fei Xuli." He said.

"No need." A voice spoke behind Jing Yu and crushed the ice wrapping Jing Yu. "I'll answer." Fei Xuli said as he glared at Yi Bing.

"Huo Ling." Hao Baiyun called as he looked at Huo Ling.

Huo Ling's eyes widened when he finally clearly saw now up close the man he had seen earlier. "You're… Hao Baiyun." He said. How can he not recognize him? He had already searched about the Hao family.

Hao Baiyun nodded and smiled at him before he turned to Yi Bing. "What do you want to know about that man?" he asked.

"He's dangerous." Yi Bing directly said.

"'dangerous'?" Hao Baiyun's brows knit.

However, Yi Bing didn't explain to them. "Who is that man?" he asked again.

"A passing acquaintance." Hao Baiyun said. "He's the doctor that helped me when I had an accident before…" he said. The doctor had found him and Gu Xingfeng after they mated. Then, the doctor sent them to the hotel since he didn't want to go to the hospital or he'll be recognized. "What's wrong with him?" he asked when he saw Yi Bing's face twitched.

"Have you find something strange about him when you last contacted him?" Yi Bing asked.

"No…" Hao Baiyun was puzzled.

"Then, have you told him – " Yi Bing looked at Hao Baiyun in the eyes. " – about the fox clan's resurrection?" he asked.

Hao Baiyun's pupils shrank as he stared at Yi Bing in astonishment. Yi Bing didn't wait for him to answer and pulled Huo Ling. Then, they disappeared.

"Young master…" Fei Xuli called. His face is also filled with disbelief.

Jing Yu brushed the ice off his clothes. "He doesn't seem to be lying." He said as he looked at the place where Yi Bing and Huo Ling disappeared. "Huo Ling also trusts him." He added.

Hao Baiyun fell silent. The doctor, as he said, is just a passing acquaintance for him. The doctor also knows about the yao, and knew the scent of the fox on him after he saved him and Gu Xingfeng. As a token of gratitude, he left him his calling card in case the doctor needs his help. Thus, when the doctor found Huo Ling's corpse, he had called him.

While Fei Xuli investigated Huo Ling's life, he and Jing Yu claimed Huo Ling's corpse. Not to mention him as a member of the fox clan, but Jing Yu's sense of smell is god-tier so they confirmed that, indeed, Huo Ling is a member of the fox clan and that he is a nine-tailed fox.

If the doctor is dangerous as what Yi Bing said, then why did the doctor helped him find Huo Ling? Hao Baiyun is very confused. He had to ask Yi Bing again, but Yi Bing didn't leave them a method to contact him. What did Yi Bing mean, something strange about the doctor from the last time he met him? Indeed, he noticed there was something strange.

The doctor he met years ago is a timid person. But, the doctor he met when he claimed Huo Ling's corpse is brimming with confidence. However, since he is preoccupied with Huo Ling's matter that time, he overlooked the strangeness of the doctor.

Now that he has been reminded… "We have to move Huo Ling's body!" he said.

Fei Xuli and Jing Yu also moved. The three of them immediately went back to the villa. However, just as they left, a figure appeared from the shadow of the tree and watched their car sped away. The figure, like last night, wore a white coat and still has a stethoscope hang on his neck. He wore it like he was wearing a necklace.

"Hello. Are you a doctor?" a kid around the age of five asked when she saw him.

The doctor glanced at her. The child's mother, following behind her, noticed the doctor just silently staring at her child. It wasn't a malicious gaze, but there's something off with it. "Nannan. Let's go." she called her child.

"Yes~!" the child nodded and happily ran to her mother.

The mother saw the doctor now looked at her and she felt goosebumps in her skin. She immediately carried her child and ran away.

The doctor watched them disappear from his sight. Finally, and slowly, he opened his mouth to speak. "I…" he said, his voice weak and hoarse as if he's whispering. He tried to speak again, but no words came out of his mouth. He frowned, then went back to hide in the shadow.

Meanwhile, Huo Ling called Yi Bing. "Yi Bing… what was that just now?" he asked.

When they finally reached Di San and the others, only did Yi Bing stop. "Hm? What's wrong? You quarreled?" Liu Lin asked when they saw Yi Bing was frowning while Huo Ling's face is confused, but with a hint of anger.

Before Huo Ling could answer, Yi Bing spoke. "That doctor knows Huo Ling's corpse is with Hao Baiyun. Go and retrieve it." he told them.

"Ah?" they said. Now, they looked as confused as Huo Ling.

"Didn't you say Huo Ling couldn't be resurrected?" Di San asked.

Yi Bing turned to him. "Did I say I will resurrect him?" he snapped.

"…" Di San zipped his lips.

"Yi Bing!" Huo Ling called and pulled his arm away from Yi Bing's grasp. "Just what is going on? Can't you explain it to me? Who is this doctor?" he asked, frustration in his voice. Even though he looked indifferent towards everything, but no one likes to be kept in the dark!
