Ms. Doctor Divine Chapter 1826

1826 Change 3

Elder Miss was in no condition to address any of these issues.

While the hidden guards and maids were important, Elder Miss held the utmost significance. If anything were to happen to her, all their current efforts would be rendered meaningless.

The hidden guard overheard the conversation from inside and was filled with guilt and regret. He realized that he had made a mistake by asking them for help. He should have respected Ms. Lingyun’s decision to spare Elder Miss from further troubles.

Elder Miss was known for her kind-hearted nature, and it was likely that she would want to a.s.sist them. However, he feared that by burdening her with their problems, he would only worsen her already precarious condition.

Gu Chaoyan gently shook her head.

The presence of Sword One would not make a difference. The guards from Snow Territory were bullying them precisely because they lacked fear. They held the upper hand, and Sword One’s presence alone would not change the situation.

She knew that she had to confront this challenge alone, personally.

Only when she stepped forward and took action could their circ.u.mstances be altered.

With great effort, Gu Chaoyan struggled to stand up.

As she emerged from the wagon, Sword One draped a cloak over her shoulders. “I will attend to the injured hidden guards.”

Witnessing Elder Miss’s pale countenance, the hidden guard was consumed by guilt. They were aware that Elder Miss had come seeking a solution for the poison within her heart.

Yet, the hidden guard felt a deep sense of remorse for having compelled her to tend to their needs while she herself was unwell.

Filled with regret, he yearned to guide her back to the safety of the wagon.

“Lead the way, don’t waste any time,” Lingyun reminded the hidden guard.

The revelation had already reached Elder Miss, and there was no way to retract that knowledge. Rather than deliberating over whether it was appropriate for Elder Miss to concern herself with these matters, it was best to expedite the process by bringing her there so she could fulfill her duties swiftly.

The hidden guard felt relieved by Lingyun’s reminder.

He took the lead and began guiding them.

A few guards from Snow Territory intercepted them upon seeing Elder Miss stepping out of the wagon.

Gu Chaoyan cast a sharp glance their way, causing some guards to avert their gaze, not daring to meet her eyes again.

They were observing her, but she was the Phoenix Girl, and they did not dare to meddle too much in her affairs.

“Where do you think you’re going, Phoenix Girl?” the Snow Territory guard inquired.

“Should I report my every move to you? Who do you think you are?” Gu Chaoyan retorted angrily, particularly after learning about their mistreatment of the hidden guards.

The Snow Territory guard’s face twitched in displeasure but he said nothing further, choosing to quietly trail behind her.

Gu Chaoyan proceeded towards the location where the hidden guards were stationed.

Having rarely disembarked from the wagon, she now grasped the gravity of the situation.

The once-vigorous hidden guards, who exuded energy upon their first encounter, now bore the marks of weariness, exhibiting signs of injury and experiencing the biting cold.

And those gravely injured individuals bore visible redness on their faces, a clear sign of distress.

Some were battling the chill, while others grappled with severe wounds.

Without a doubt, many would not have lasted another day. If not for her arrival, they would have succ.u.mbed to their injuries.

Gu Chaoyan retrieved her needles.
