Chapter 891: Face Slapping, Dominating Trending, and Running Into the In Family (3)
In his previous life, Yu Xiheng had too many regrets.
He failed to bring reinforcements to Yanmen in time and couldn’t prevent Mo Yanfeng from sacrificing himself to defend the city.
Moreover, he died too early to stop JI Chunyuan, who, a hundred years later, single-handedly repelled an invasion of a hundred thousand troops into the Eastern State, only to perish in the process.
It wasn’t the brevity of his life that pained him, but the multitude of unfinished tasks.
Mo Yanwen’s expression shifted slightly, and he murmured, “Mr. Yu.”
Yu Xiheng returned to the present. “Are there any members of the FENG family who need to appear on screen?”
“Yes,” Si Fuqing replied, glancing at the list. “But I don’t know any FENG family members.”
She was planning to have JI Xingzhi make a cameo as well.
“Hmm,” Yu Xiheng nodded. “I’ll help you find someone.”
Si Fuqing poured him a cup of tea, smiling sweetly. “Brother Nine, I knew you were the best.”
With genuine members of the three aristocratic families starring in ‘The Nation’s Heroine,’ it would be an unprecedented masterpiece.

That evening, Si Fuqing went out to buy a late-night snack.
Xi Jiang and Feng San played rock-paper-scissors, and Xi Jiang won, so he escorted Si Fuqing.
As they exited the barbecue shop, Si Fuqing suddenly stopped.
Xi Jiang was puzzled. “Miss Si?”
“I smell medicinal herbs,” Si Fuqing pointed eastward. “I’m going to gather some herbs. Wait here for me.”
Xi Jiang followed her gaze, seeing only dense shrubbery.
He couldn’t smell anything?!
Just as Si Fuqing was about to move forward, someone ahead collapsed.
A cry of alarm rang out.
“Old lady!”
It was an elderly woman, her body convulsing, veins bulging on her neck and face, making her look terrifying.
Her hands also showed bulging veins, as if something was crazily moving beneath her skin.
Xi Jiang, hearing the commotion, was horrified. “Miss Si, that person…”
Having spent a lot of time with Chen Ying, he had some understanding of evolved beings.
The old lady was clearly experiencing an energy outburst, teetering on the brink of collapse!
Without a specific sedative, she might not survive.
Evolved beings, known for their genetic mutations, couldn’t be explained by modern medicine.
Some had donated their bodies to the Evolved Being Alliance after death. Researchers had developed a sedative, though it wasn’t effective for all evolved beings.
The number of evolved beings who died due to uncontrolled internal power surges far exceeded those who perished in battles.
Very few could fully control their powers.
Xi Jiang’s voice was urgent. “Miss Si, could they be from the In family? The family head mentioned they were visiting today. How could they forget the sedative? This doesn’t make sense.”
The In family was one of the three great families of evolved beings. Such a mistake seemed unlikely.
Si Fuqing’s eyes narrowed as she approached.
“I’m a doctor,” she said, crouching down. “Let me take a look.”
An elderly man nearby was frantic.
Hearing Si Fuqing’s voice, he looked up, his eyes landing on her face. He was momentarily speechless. “You…”
“Doctor?” The personal guard’s eyes were red with anger. “Even if you’re the national medical sage, it’s useless! Do you know who we are? Get lost!”
An energy outburst in an evolved being could only be managed by another evolved being.
What could a doctor do?
