Meng Luosheng in Trouble

Since City Lord Hai said he would invite Patriarch Zhao Household, he naturally keeps his word.

After all, he was his most cherished son. Upon receiving the news, the Zhao Household family head quickly put aside all trivial matters and came to Haizhou City in person.

Sang Ying and the others didn't know what the heads of the Hai and Zhao families had discussed in secret, but they did see Zhao San being led away by his father with a dark expression on his face.

Moreover, before leaving, he was forced by the Zhao Household head to apologize to Hai Tingzhou and the others.

However, Sang Ying and the others could clearly see that although the man apologized verbally, his eyes were full of malice as he glared at them.

Before Zhao San could find an opportunity to utter any more threats, his father slapped him on the back of the head. "Run!"

The father and son headed towards the small flying boat in the distance, and the Zhao Household family head's scolding voice could still be heard from afar. "I've only let you out for a few months and you've already caused such a mess! Just wait until I get back, I'll deal with you! For the next six months, don't even think about leaving the house!"

Sang Ying and the others were satisfied with this result.

When Zhao San was released again, the three of them had long since disappeared, so there was no need to worry about him seeking revenge.

Now that Zhao San's matter was settled and the items on Gleaming Gold Island were obtained, Sang Ying no longer intended to stay in Haizhou City.

The two months she spent on Gleaming Gold Island had already advanced her cultivation to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, but she would probably need some more time and an opportune moment to cultivate the Golden Core.

Sang Ying then planned to leave this place and travel around in search of her opportunity.

After briefly sharing her thoughts with Hai Tingzhou and Fang Chi, both of them showed a hint of disappointment.

They got along very well during this time, but they never expected to have to separate so soon.

Fortunately, they were all cultivators, and they were able to control their emotions.

Hai Tingzhou added, "When I finally become the head of the family, I will definitely invite you to the ceremony!"

Sang Ying readily agreed.

After agreeing on a departure time with them, Sang Ying took some time to go to Xiao Liu's house to discuss terminating the lease.

To everyone's surprise, as soon as they arrived at Xiao Liu's house, they heard a deafening commotion inside.

Sang Ying paused, no longer heading towards the door. Instead, she gripped her sword and circled around to the alley next to the house, quickly scaling the wall.

The protective array inside the house was as fragile as paper to her. Sang Ying passed through the array silently and landed quietly in the courtyard.

There was no one in the courtyard, and no lights were on, but a sound came from the tightly closed main hall, "Luosheng, wake up, it's your mother!"

That's Madam Meng's voice.

"Brother! Brother! Look at me, it's me!" And there was Xiao Liu's voice.

The light from inside cast the silhouettes of the group onto the window. Sang Ying saw a tall figure lift something heavy, about to smash it down on the other two!

She could no longer care about anything else; she immediately drew her sword, kicked open the door, and entered.

She arrived just in time, smashing the stool that came at her the moment she entered. As wood chips flew, Sang Ying kicked the figure in front of her hard, sending him flying into the wall and knocking him unconscious on the spot.

"Luosheng!" "Brother!"

Two figures darted out from behind her and helped the unconscious Meng Luosheng up with great concern.

Sang Ying, worried that they might be concerned, explained, "Don't worry, she just fainted. I was careful with my strength."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Liu and his companion breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, fairy." Xiao Liu's eyes were full of gratitude.

Although Madam Meng did not speak, her gaze towards Sang Ying was filled with gratitude.

Although she knew she shouldn't meddle in other people's business, Sang Ying couldn't help but ask, "What happened to your brother? Is he sick?"

He was perfectly fine the last few times we met, so why did he suddenly act like he'd gone mad today, even hitting his own mother and younger brother?

The mother and son exchanged a glance, both with bitter expressions on their faces.

Madam Meng remained silent, but Xiao Liu gritted his teeth and spoke up, "To be honest, Fairy, my brother does indeed have a strange illness."

Madam Meng tried to stop her, but she was too late. Xiao Liu rolled up Meng Luosheng's sleeve, revealing a long section of his arm.

However, this arm was somewhat different from ordinary people's; it was covered with dense, numerous scales.

Madam Meng sadly turned her head away, and Xiao Liu's eyes also welled up with tears. "I wonder if the fairy knows any powerful medical practitioners? As long as my brother's illness can be cured, we are willing to pay any price!"

He was truly at his wit's end. Ever since these things started growing on his brother's body, he had become mentally unstable. Now his illness was getting worse and worse, and he was even hallucinating and wanted to attack them.

Xiao Liu had also wanted to ask the Hai Household for help, since his brother worked for the young master of the Hai Household. Unfortunately, the Hai Household's servants told him that the young master had gone out and his return date was uncertain.

As a lowly cultivator with little ability, without the Hai Household as a connection, who would be willing to help him?

Moreover, there are very few medical practitioners in Haizhou City, and his mother, for some unknown reason, insisted on keeping his brother's condition a secret from outsiders, which is why it has been delayed for so long.

Sang Ying frowned and leaned closer to examine Meng Luosheng's hand carefully.

If it were before, she probably wouldn't have recognized it, but now Sang Ying could tell at a glance that what was growing on Meng Luosheng's arm were clearly dragon scales!

Although it's quite small, the luster is definitely that of dragon scales.

Just then, Gu Shu spoke up, "This little brat is quite extraordinary; he actually has Dragon Race blood!"

"Hey, it's a black dragon! I wonder which dragon came to the Twin Orchid Realm and gave birth to such a cub," Gu Shu said.

Sang Ying then realized that Meng Luosheng only had half Dragon Race blood.

Previously, his Human Race bloodline prevailed, so no one noticed anything amiss. But now, his Dragon Race bloodline is gradually becoming more active, which is why he is exhibiting this unusual behavior.

"Is there any way to save him?" Sang Ying asked.

Gu Shu thought for a moment, "Being a mixed-race person isn't easy. One of the two bloodlines must be dominant. Judging from his current appearance, it seems that the two bloodlines are merging and fighting. Once one of them wins, he will survive."

"What if we can't reach a conclusion after all this?" Sang Ying thought of this.

Gu Shu: "Then there's only one way out: death."

Before Sang Ying, Xiao Liu and Madam Meng looked at her with hopeful eyes, as if she were the only lifeline for the mother and son.

Sang Ying sighed and turned to Madam Meng: "I have something I'd like to say to you, Madam. Would you mind coming out with me alone for a moment?"

Madam Meng was taken aback. Although she didn't know what Sang Ying wanted to say, she still obediently followed her.

The two left the main hall and found a secluded corner.

As soon as they stood still, Sang Ying spoke up, "Meng Luosheng is not your biological son, Madam, is he?"
