0104 - Whispers of War.
"You really are Senior Hong's disciple," the Grand Patriarch, Lu Zheng, suddenly praised Lu Sheng. Although it sounded like a casual remark, it shattered everyone's preconceptions about Physician Hong.
Even Mu Hanqi, who had remained unmoved throughout her husband's agony, showed an expression of shock. Her previously stoic demeanor cracked as she processed the weight of Lu Zheng's words.
Lu Jing, who had always been arrogant, found himself speechless as he looked at Lu Sheng in a new light. Here was Lu Sheng, his younger step-brother, always considered a stain on the Lu Clan's martial legacy. His usual target for bullying and mockery. When Lu Jing heard about Lu Sheng being taken as a disciple by some Physician Hong of Physician Hall, he dismissed it as a joke. Perhaps the old Physician had gone senile, or his weak father had pulled some strings. Now, staring at Lu Sheng's healing touch, Lu Jing wasn't sure what to believe.
