Shi Guang was stunned and turned his head to look at Beisitian, "Sister?"

Beisitian smiled slightly, "I’ll go with you to have a look. The Shi Family hasn’t thanked me yet, I can’t just leave quietly."

Shi Guang felt touched. He knew Beisitian was going to support him.

Shi Jiantong was overjoyed. Indeed, Beisitian and Shi Guang had a good relationship. Since she was willing to go, it meant she was willing to help!

Shi Jiantong bowed deeply to Beisitian, "The Shi Family is extremely grateful for Doctor Bei’s help, our gratitude is beyond words!"

Beisitian smiled, "Don’t get too happy too soon. You still have to pay to buy my medicine."

Shi Jiantong forced a bitter smile.

Beisitian turned to Tian Zhi and said, "Since you’re back, go get Xing Jun, and let Wei Zhongxun follow me."

Tian Zhi agreed, quickly went out, and found Wei Zhongxun in the nearby courtyard, seeing Wei Zhongxun was telling Xing Jun about the good qualities of girls in Beijing, his face instantly darkened.

No wonder Master wanted him to take over...

Wei Zhongxun was initially very reluctant. It was hard to find someone willing to listen to him, so he didn’t want to leave. But upon hearing that Beisitian wanted to take him to the Shi Family, he immediately perked up.

"Little Jun, you review by yourself first, try to find yourself a girlfriend, I’m going to check out the excitement... oh no, I mean to resolve the Shi Family’s crisis!" Wei Zhongxun said and then swiftly left.

Xing Jun: "..."

Tian Zhi: "..."

Wei Zhongxun drove the three of them all the way to the Shi Family branch, located in a large courtyard outside the Third Ring. The area was all connected, and though it’s larger than the Qingyu area, the land wasn’t as valuable.

On the way, Shi Jiantong briefly explained the Shi Family’s situation, not hiding anything from Beisitian and the others. Although it was a family scandal, since they were asking for help, they couldn’t keep it hidden.

Shi Jianbo was skilled. Even though he knew he had little hope of getting the patriarch position, he had been secretly cultivating his power. However, in the past, the Shi Family was large and orderly, and there were few who truly followed him. He could only use these forces to secure his position within the Shi Family.

This sudden and strange crisis saw Shi Jianbo rise immediately. While others were struggling helplessly in the small village, he seemed to blossom there, protecting most of the Shi Family, which is why many from the Shi Family were drawn to him.

"The village he’s in has the most Shi Family members, nearly fifty of them. There’s basically no older generation, with the ’Jian’ generation having the most, followed by the third generation. Without the suppression of the older generation, he quickly became a representative figure of the Shi Family in the village," Shi Jiantong said.

"There are also many rascals in the village and many guards, all armed. Several times they tried to bully the Shi Family members, but were protected by Shi Jianbo. Only a few women in the village were... the rest were unharmed, and none died," Shi Jiantong said.

While driving, Wei Zhongxun said, "It seems this Shi Jianbo is quite good, then."

People vying for power aren’t usually judged on being good or bad, but on their stance.

Shi Jiantong turned pale. Hopefully, the Qingyu people won’t support Shi Jianbo before they even arrive.

Though Shi Jiantong thought this unlikely, Wei Zhongxun’s words still made him feel uneasy.

"It does seem good on the surface, but many things feel strange. First, why are there so many from the Shi Family in that village? The more people there are, the more likely a riot, and even with mischievous elements, it’s not easy to control. Qing Yan has no reason to do something so thankless!" Shi Jiantong frowned.

It wasn’t that he was suspicious, just that of all the Blood Circles, only Shi Jianbo’s place was different, which was curious. Moreover, there was one thing Shi Jiantong didn’t say: everything seemed to be creating opportunities for Shi Jianbo’s rise.

These suspicions were best kept to himself, as they were just his doubts.

Sitting directly behind the driver seat, Beisitian said calmly, "There’s something I suddenly remembered, when interrogating someone from Qing Yan, I asked a question."

Sitting in the passenger seat, Shi Jiantong turned to look at Beisitian, as did Shi Guang.

"I asked, why could you so easily overcome the Shi Family?"

Both of them became alert. This had been a question they always wanted answered. The Shi Family was a large family, how could they all be so easily kidnapped!

"That person said, the Shi Family had an insider."

Shi Jiantong and Shi Guang’s expressions immediately darkened. As expected, there was a traitor within the Shi Family. Otherwise, how could anyone know the layout of the Shi Family branch so well? Even the ’Jian’ generation patrolling outside was not spared, only Shi Guang escaped without a trace.

"As to who it was, they didn’t say," Beisitian said. She wasn’t going to speculate either. This was their family’s internal affair. She only relayed what she knew, leaving it to them to find evidence.

"Oh right, Hawkeye’s people probably know. They hold some of the evidence," Beisitian reminded.

If a family conflict spills out with a traitor, it’s the family’s matter, and no one else can interfere, but this traitor colluded with Qing Yan, meaning Hawkeye would certainly investigate!

Shi Jiantong’s eyes lit up immediately and he contacted Zhou Tongxuan, asking for their help.

Hawkeye had long started gathering evidence. Even without Shi Jiantong asking, they were going to catch this person. They were akin to the enforcers in the Mystic Medical World, so long as you lived on this land, as a citizen who spoke of Mystic Doctor, they had jurisdiction.

Hawkeye usually wouldn’t appear unless laws were broken, but if laws were broken and the nation was endangered, they’d definitely maintain order. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Thanks to Beisitian’s timely reminder, Shi Jiantong and Shi Guang soon realized who this person might be. Shi Jiantong had long felt something was off in many places, and with this premise, these events had a reasonable explanation.

Shi Jianbo usually kept a low profile and was quite clever. Without solid evidence, it was impossible to bring him down, and he might even counterattack.

Shi Jiantong made a mental note and looked at Shi Guang. Shi Guang nodded; though only eighteen, he now had to shoulder the family’s responsibility, and could no longer act on impulse.

As they spoke, the car reached their destination. The four got out, with Shi Guang and Shi Jiantong leading the way into the courtyard, only to find two people guarding the entrance, both from the Shi Family.

To their surprise, they were stopped and not allowed to enter!
