“Yes…”
The Dragon Lord said so, and it was the Dragon Lord’s magnanimity, but if he were to truly mistake this place for his own home without knowing the immensity of heaven and earth, it would be his ignorance.
The two sat by the chessboard. The Dragon Lord glanced at the young man. He smiled faintly. How could he not know what this kid was thinking? Young people nowadays just liked to overthink.
The game, halfway through, he suddenly stopped: “Little Zheng, please wait a moment.” With that, the Dragon Lord got up, walked aside, and made a phone call.
In less than a minute, he returned to the chessboard: “Let’s continue.”
Little Zheng didn’t know what the Dragon Lord was doing. Although he was confused, he didn’t dare to ask. He silently played chess, talking to the Dragon Lord about topics that interested him.
As for who the Dragon Lord had called earlier, or what he had done before, he didn’t dare to inquire. He was very clear about his identity.
When the game ended, Little Zheng said, “Dragon Lord, I concede… It’s time for a physical examination.”
“Alright.”
The Dragon Lord reluctantly put down the chess pieces. It was too difficult to find someone inferior to him in chess. He could only bully Little Zheng.
After a thorough examination, Little Zheng’s brow furrowed. The more he checked, the more he felt something was wrong.
When the examination concluded, Little Zheng said sternly, “Dragon Lord, where have you been these past few days? Why has your condition deteriorated so rapidly?!”
As the Dragon Lord’s personal physician, he knew very well that a few days ago, the Dragon Lord’s internal body was still in a relatively balanced state, but now, his body was almost in complete chaos!
A complete mess!
If this continued, the Dragon Lord’s body would have at most one month before he would have to prepare for his funeral!
“Little Zheng, come, come, sit down. Don’t rush,” the Dragon Lord had long anticipated Little Zheng’s reaction. He beckoned him to sit down. “I know my body very well. This… it’s nothing serious.”
“Nothing serious? How can it be nothing serious?” Little Zheng immediately bristled upon hearing this. “Dragon Lord! You are the master of Long Country! Long Country still needs you to govern it! But with your body like this, if it continues, at most the day after tomorrow, you will be bedridden! Even if the divine physician arrives, I can’t imagine what method he could use to restore you!”
“Little Zheng, remain calm!”
The Dragon Lord pulled Little Zheng down to sit. He said earnestly, “You, be well and don’t rush. These are all old ailments. I have long foreseen this day. I have been prepared almost every day. Don’t worry, even without me, Long Country will continue to operate smoothly.”
“But…”
Little Zheng hesitated to speak. He sighed, then immediately took out his phone and said, “I’ll seek help from the divine physician right now!”
“There’s no need. That kid is very busy lately. When would he have time to treat an old man like me?” the Dragon Lord shook his head.
“No! Dragon Lord! No matter what, I must call the divine physician! In this situation, if I don’t tell him, I will be a sinner for eternity!” Little Zheng’s attitude was very firm.
“You…”
The Dragon Lord chuckled helplessly. This little fellow was so stubborn at this moment. He could only let him have his way.
“Hello… Divine Physician Lin! The Dragon Lord is not doing well!”
