"Are you done?" Old Master Nan was watching Feng Ao Kuai and Nan Luo sparred when he saw Traveling Doctor Liu came out.
Traveling Doctor Liu nodded. He glanced at the field and arched his eyebrows. "I didn't expect to see you still train your descendants this late at night."
"They have to train so that they can pour their excess energy into something useful." Old Master Nan scoffed, not bothering at all with his speech. Living with the soldiers most of the time, he didn't usually filter his speech and only when he was with other officials would he speak carefully.
"Do you also train Nan Hua this way?"
"No way! Her training is mostly based on what she wanted to learn." Old Master Nan couldn't bear the thought of putting Nan Hua in hardship, so he always arranged Nan Hua's training to be the lightest.
"Is that so?"
"What is it?"
The expression on Traveling Doctor Liu didn't look normal. Old Master Nan had interacted with Traveling Doctor Liu countless times in the past. It could be said that he knew a bit about this annoying doctor.
Traveling Doctor Liu glanced at Old Master Nan. "Her pain tolerance is even better than you when you're young."
Old Master Nan was speechless.
When he was young, he did get injured badly and have Traveling Doctor treated him. But because it had to be done when he was awake, he ended up screaming a lot and nearly thrashed his entire residence.
That incident was definitely a black mark in his life.
"Wait, what did you give to her?"
"Medicinal bath. You know which one."
Old Master Nan blinked his eyes in surprise. Ning Shu Pavilion was located not far from Nan Hua's quarter, so if she screamed, he should have been able to hear it. However, he didn't hear her scream at all.
Upon realizing that, Old Master Nan's face darkened.
"That's why I'm a bit curious." Traveling Doctor Liu looked at Old Master Nan and smiled faintly. "If it's not you, who could possibly train her until her pain tolerance is so high?"
"Nan Shu Cheng."
"That idiot official?"
Old Master Nan scoffed. "Just figure out things by yourself. I won't be seeing you out."
Traveling Doctor Liu laughed when he saw Old Master Nan acting so hostile. However, for someone like him, that sentence was indeed more than enough. He was not stupid and had clearly heard many types of news upon staying in the Capital City.
After walking for a bit, he eventually returned. He looked at his third disciple, who looked exasperated. "What is it, Ah Yu?"
"Master, can you please warn me before asking fifth junior to move?" Shan Yu sighed. Different from him and other disciples, their master's fifth junior was a shadow guard. While he also learned some medicine, he spent most of his time to monitor their master from a distance to protect him.
Traveling Doctor Liu laughed. "It just proved that a lot of people want to have my head."
"Master, is it something to be proud about?"
