Imperial Treasure-Chapter 952 - 573: The Old Wizard’s Plea for Help

Natasha’s attitude toward Frank’s research society accident was quite elusive; she didn’t say a word about it, nor did she explain the origin of her own hidden illness, even to Sui Yi, let alone to Gong Jiu and the others.

Because of this, Sui Yi didn’t ask her any questions or reminders, just arranged a room for her.

This guy also went to take a shower by himself.

And then...

Natasha, wrapped in a towel, was helped to bed by Sui Yi. The towel was short, barely covering anything. Natasha tugged at the top only to find the bottom too short, and when she adjusted the bottom, the top became exposed again, hehe~

She simply stopped adjusting and gave Sui Yi a cold glance.

"Your towels are too short~ I didn’t know you were this kind of person."

But Sui Yi, who was opening the wardrobe and taking out bedding, ignored her and just focused on making the bed.

"I’m talking to you," Natasha felt a bit annoyed as it was the first time she had been ignored like this.

Sui Yi glanced at her coolly, "I don’t understand what you’re saying."

What does a short towel have to do with what kind of person she is?

"Oh come on! There are two kinds of people who wear such short towels: One, you use it yourself, or two, your family uses it."

"If you use it, even though you seem upright on the surface, pretending to be indifferent, using such short towels at home shows you’re actually secretly coquettish inside."

"If it’s for your family to use, it means you are lustful inside."

"How about it, am I right?"

This deductive tone and manner were clearly Natasha deliberately teasing Sui Yi.

Yet Sui Yi didn’t even lift her eyes, opened the wardrobe, took out a set of pajamas, and said calmly, "You’re overthinking it." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"No one is like you, wearing it for others to see."

Who is secretly coquettish and who is lustful indeed?

Natasha: "..."

You go away, go away!

I don’t need you to care!

Natasha was quite depressed, feeling that she actually couldn’t beat this Chinese woman in eloquence. Hmm, it must be because Chinese is the other’s mother tongue, and also this person is so single-minded, completely not understanding the essence of my words.

Hmm, that must be it!

But Natasha soon found another point to attack Sui Yi.

"Haha, look at this pajama, for me?"

"Uh-huh, you put it on."

"It’s so ugly, what’s this thing on it, Gangster Rabbit? Is this your taste?"

Sui Yi glanced at her again and took the pajamas back.

If you don’t want it, I’ll take it away.

"NO!"

Natasha hastily grabbed Sui Yi’s sleeve, glaring at her fiercely, "How are you so humorless, like a block of stone!"

"I’m not a doctor."

Huh? Meaning...

I’m sick and need treatment?

"!!!"

You go, you go! Go away!

Natasha, who had been wailing internally several times, ultimately suppressed her hostility as her ailment still needed Sui Yi’s treatment, but she was really not happy inside.

So...

"I’m weak, my hands can’t move, your acupoint thing... touch me again, will you?"

"...."

Sui Yi’s fingers gathered the purest magnetic energy and tapped twice on Natasha’s shoulder.

Hmm, strength returned.

Shwoop!

She pulled off the towel in one swift move.

A flash of white.

Thud.

Sui Yi was stunned, the pajamas in her hand fell to the ground.

She calmly bent to pick it up, didn’t lift her eyes, and tossed it directly to Natasha.

"Call me when you’re done changing, and I’ll heal you."

Then she exited without looking back.

Behind her, Natasha’s triumphant hum could be heard.

Humph, can’t kill you!

But this woman is really pure, so resistant even to seeing the body of the same sex.

----------------

Sui Yi closed the door with a complex expression, the helplessness and oddity on her face seen by Gong Jiu and the others coming upstairs.

"What’s wrong?"

Gong Jiu thought something had happened to Natasha.

"Nothing... she’s changing clothes," Sui Yi said, frowning.

"She can change, so what, why did you come out, are foreigners so pretentious? No, they’re typically pretty uninhibited."

Pretentious?

Not really.

Sui Yi did not like others to misunderstand her intentions, so she kindly explained, "It’s not that, she was changing in front of me, so I came out."

All because and so, such simple words.

Gong Jiu: Holy cow! This little vixen!

Flower Demon: Such luck! Let me in!

Clang! Yi drew her weapon!

Gong Jiu and company: What are you drawing your weapon for! Calm down! Calm down!

Sui Yi: ....

Creak, the door opened.

Natasha’s face appeared in front of them.

Gong Jiu: "Ah~ Your Royal Highness is truly radiant, beautiful enough to topple a nation, really, really beautiful!"

Flower Demon: "Oh my, this pajama is really..,.. really... uh... Gangster Rabbit? You are truly extraordinary, wearing that Gangster Rabbit like... a Gangster Rabbit."

Whatever pajamas.

Everyone looked at Princess Natasha’s sleepwear, where a chubby rabbit with eyes that were just two straight lines sat on the ground, holding a professional toilet plunger, looking utterly pitiful.

Hmm, there’s a pile of poop on the floor in front of it.

Flower Demon racked his brains but couldn’t find any words to praise or describe this sleepwear.

So he could only chuckle awkwardly.

Hehehe~

Natasha looked at these people with an expressionless face, then said coolly, "You didn’t just come here to see me, did you?"

Of course not!

"The old man downstairs can’t hold on much longer, Sui Yi, go and check it out."

"By the way, has Princess Natasha’s illness been treated?"

Are you going to die if you don’t speak!

Natasha glanced over at Gong Jiu, who shivered.

Damn it, when I become a king, let’s see how arrogant you can be!

"Okay, I’ll go take a look."

Sui Yi went downstairs, and the others followed.

Natasha was a bit conflicted, she didn’t want to stay upstairs alone, bored, but with this sleepwear...

"Even if it’s a Gangster Rabbit this lame, it wouldn’t suppress my aura and style as Natasha!"

That’s what she thought, but still hesitated.

When Sui Yi reached downstairs, Fatty Gao and Ye Zixu were already beside the old Black Wizard.

Sui Yi just took a glance, and the Beak of the Golden Crow landed on the old Black Wizard’s forehead.

A glimmer of golden light.

The old man, covered in eerie bluish energy, stopped trembling from pain and calmed down.

Ye Zixu placed him on the sofa, and after a while, the old man woke up.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a chubby guy holding a cup of steaming hot water with a very cute and kind face.

Oh~ To receive such warm assistance after escaping death, even the old Black Wizard, who dwelled in the ways of darkness, felt touched...

So he took the water and gulped it down.

After finishing.

He felt completely comfortable, warm, and moved.

"The old man drank it! Miss Hua, are you sure your Soul Chasing Life-Seeking Death Potion works?"

This fatty turned his head to ask a very beautiful and stunning woman.

"Nonsense, I, Flower Demon, have been in the Jianghu for so many years, and my poison stock, if not a ton, is at least eight hundred. This old man is a foreign creature, he definitely has no immunity to our local poisons. Just watch, soon he’ll be begging and answer everything... And you, fat bastard, stop calling me Miss Hua!"

Old Wizard: "..."

The world is so big, but you people are so ruthless, is this nice?

Seeing the old wizard with such a disordered expression, Sui Yi glanced at the two: "Don’t deceive the elderly, his body is already severely injured, he won’t live much longer."

Alright, alright.

The two nodded and sincerely admitted their fault.

Old man: "...."

Why did I even think of coming here for help before!!

Why, why!

"Speak, what do you need me for?"

Sui Yi sat on the sofa, peeling an apple with a delicate fruit knife, his slender, fair hands moving slowly, seriously, and attentively...

Such a pleasing sight.

The old man shivered.

He remembered the scene with the bow and arrow, it was also this hand.

"I came seeking help."

The old man coughed and said, "After we left, they quickly caught up with us. Ji and Lin teamed up, I couldn’t match them, soon all my men were killed, I escaped..."

"Oh? You know Sui Yi’s address?" Gong Jiu caught a flaw.

Pausing, he looked at Sui Yi and said, "I have to thank the Lord for that."

Nani!

WHAT!

Everyone looked at Sui Yi.

Sui Yi responded with an indifferent glance.

"I said it already."

You just didn’t understand it.

Everyone: Seriously, who the hell understands that bird language from Cambodia!

"Then, what about the Eye of the God?"

Gong Jiu asked.

The old man shook his head.

Gong Jiu sighed immediately.

Got robbed?

Seriously...

"Old man, your value just dropped to nothing, coming here without the stone!"

Gong Jiu and Flower Demon, being typical realists, immediately took away the water glass from the old wizard’s hand upon hearing that the Eye of the God was gone.

What the hell!

The old man was speechless, twitching the corner of his mouth.

"No, the stone hasn’t been robbed, it’s still with me."

You’ll die if you speak plainly, huh.

Gong Jiu returned the cup to him, even refilled it with hot water.

"I fought hard to protect it and bring it here, if the Lord hadn’t helped, it would’ve been robbed long ago, and I wouldn’t have survived."

The Black Wizard took a deep breath, suddenly lowered his head to Sui Yi, clasped his hands together, and in a kneeling plea said to Sui Yi: "Sir, only you can help our tribe now."

Sui Yi looked down at him.

"You should know, I’m at most someone with wizard abilities within the Midland region, not even a formal wizard, plus you’re a wizard from Cambodia, there’s an inherent feud between us, how can I help you?"

The old man showed a bitter expression, "I know, my Lord is also in a difficult situation, but our tribe truly has no other way. Since our tribe relocated from the Midland to Cambodia hundreds of years ago, we’ve always been under a curse, if it weren’t for the Eye of the God suppressing the curse, our tribe would have been wiped out long ago."

"A curse?" Sui Yi asked, Ye Zixu noticed a strange tone in her voice.

"Yes." The old man suddenly looked slightly embarrassed, Gong Jiu immediately understood; "You think it’s a curse from the Midland wizard tribe?" (To be continued.
