Chapter 206: Healing
"Why has Your Highness come here?"
The Shadow Hall Master was stunned by Gan Luo's attire. More importantly, Gan Luo was dressed in men's clothing. Despite her men's clothes, Gan Luo's aura was in no way inferior to that of the male Shadow Hall Master. He felt that Gan Luo was indeed different from other women. At this moment, Gan Luo went straight to the point.
"I wish to have the divine physician accompany me on this trip. I wonder if the head of the hall will agree."
The leaders of the Shadow Hall naturally understood Gan Luo's intentions at this moment.
"Since Your Highness wishes for the divine physician to accompany you on this journey, I, the one lying here, naturally agree."
Soon after, the divine doctor arrived. After the doctor arrived, Gan Luo took him away. Before leaving, he asked Lin Fengmian to stay behind because the leader of the Shadow Hall had something to say to Lin Fengmian.
Gan Luo then led the divine physician, scaling walls and rooftops, and successfully arrived at the place where the Flower Rain Maiden was.
"Your Highness's kung fu is truly remarkable. I can't help but admire your lightness skill; you can move around here so easily..."
Gan Luo simply smiled faintly and told the divine physician, "The matter is rather urgent."
Inside the Shadow Hall, Lin Fengmian looked at the Shadow Hall Master, wondering what his purpose was.
"I wonder what the Master wants to say to me?"
"I just want to tell you that I want to know if you are willing to inherit the Shadow Hall now. I want to step down."
When Lin Fengmian heard this, he was shocked for a moment. He never expected that the leader of the Shadow Hall would want to step down now. Was this a joke? Lin Fengmian looked at the leader of the Shadow Hall and took a deep breath.
"I think it's better for you to stay here and remain the head of your hall. However, I feel the timing isn't quite right right now. Is it because of your health, Master?"
Now that the Shadow Hall Master has unveiled his face, more importantly, Lin Fengmian noticed that the Hall Master's complexion was rather pale. Looking at the Shadow Hall Master's appearance,
Lin Fengmian could then tell that the Shadow Hall Master's health condition must be gradually deteriorating, otherwise, why would he want to hand over the Shadow Hall to Lin Fengmian so quickly?
"My health has improved recently. The reason I look pale now is because I didn't sleep well last night and had a lot of nightmares. The reason I want to hand over the Shadow Hall to you is because I want to have some leisure time."
Lin Fengmian couldn't help but ask why the Shadow Hall Master didn't hand over the Shadow Hall to Lin Ruohua, since Lin Ruohua was the Shadow Hall Master's daughter, wasn't she?
"The reason I didn't hand over the Shadow Hall to Lin Ruohua is because Lin Ruohua's mind wasn't on the Shadow Hall, and Lin Ruohua didn't grow up in the shadows. But you are different; you've been with me since you were five years old."
Hearing what the Shadow Hall Master said, Lin Fengmian finally understood what was going on. However, Lin Fengmian's mind was not on the Shadow Hall.
"I'm willing to give you time to consider it. You can tell me when you've thought it through."
"By the way, Master, when would you be willing to reveal your identity to everyone?"
Lin Fengmian tentatively asked the Shadow Hall Master here. Upon hearing Lin Fengmian's words, the Shadow Hall Master fell into deep thought. She naturally understood what Lin Fengmian meant.
"Do you think they can accept that I am a woman? I don't know why, but I always feel that they can't accept this news."
Lin Fengmian persuaded the Shadow Hall Master, who eventually agreed to believe in Lin Fengmian and give it a try. The Shadow Hall Master then gathered everyone together.
The people from the Shadow Hall stood upright upon arrival, each harboring a sense of unease, wondering why they had been gathered on this ordinary day.
"You know, why did the Hall Master gather us all here for no reason? I don't know why, but I feel a little..."
His heart was pounding, as if something bad was about to happen. The leader of the Shadow Hall bowed to them first, and those people in front of him, seeing this, hurriedly knelt down on one knee.
"Master, what do you mean by this? Why are you bowing to us? This is absolutely unacceptable!"
"There is something I have been deceiving you about all along. After much thought, I have decided to tell you something: my true identity."
When they learned the identity of the Shadow Hall Master, they wondered if he was a fake. Apart from the fact that they couldn't accept the idea that the Shadow Hall Master's identity was fake, they didn't find anything else unacceptable.
Then the Shadow Hall Master took off the bamboo hat around her neck. When the Shadow Hall Master's true face was revealed to them, they were all dumbfounded. They never expected that the Shadow Hall Master was actually a woman. More importantly, the Master was far too beautiful.
How could they not be surprised that a woman could manage the Shadow Hall so well?
"We never expected that the Hall Master would be a young lady. Yet, the Pond Master is able to manage the Shadow Hall so well all by himself. It truly makes us subordinates feel a little ashamed."
They truly hadn't expected a woman to be so decisive and ruthless, with strength surpassing that of men. It seemed that, apart from the current princess, no one in the world could rival a man's strength. Yet, this sect leader was a woman, and her strength was comparable to that of a man.
"Don't you all blame me for concealing my gender? I have always identified myself as a man..."
"Master, what are you saying? As a woman, you have managed to run the Shadow Hall so well all by yourself. We admire you so much, how could we possibly blame you?"
Seeing them speaking so earnestly, the leader of the Shadow Hall was deeply moved.
