Back To The Drawing Board

After the mushroom-haired herbalist's full body physical assessment, Doctor Yun clicked his tongue in disdain.

"Multiple bruises on her back, a sprained elbow and irritated scalp from hair-pulling. What kind of beast did this to her?"

Ashamed and remorseful, Researcher Yang apologised to Anji for not preventing the abuse from happening.

"It's most definitely Song Geying. She was about to hit Anji when I found them in the backyard. I'm very sorry for what my assistants did to you."

Song Geying was notorious in the Western District for just about everything from plagiarising to sleeping her way up the ranks. The elders had an eye on her for the longest time, but there was never a good enough reason to expel such a shameless witch. Now, they had a great reason to do so. Yet, nobody was truly happy about this victory. Doctor Yun, who knew a little about the sect's politics, glared at Researcher Yang.
