Cherished By Seven Sisters

Chapter 550 Visit To Apricot Hall
Inside Apricot Hall sat an elderly man, who was none other than the renowned national physician, Duncan.
Duncan assumed that Matteo had come for medical treatment. He pointed to a chair in front of the consultation desk and spoke
slowly. “Please have a seat. Let me take your pulse first.”
Matteo glanced around Apricot Hall, politely greeted Duncan with a bow, and said, “Good day, sir. I am here to visit the
miraculous doctor of Jadeborough.”
“Visit Master Lund?” Duncan did not harbor any suspicions.
He shook his head and said, “He is not at Apricot Hall at the moment. You can wait here for him for a while.”
Upon hearing those words, Matteo felt his heart skip a beat.
Indeed, Sky Devourer Lord had not died!
His intuition was absolutely correct!
“What’s the matter? Do you have some urgent business with Master Lund?” Duncan asked, noticing the changing expressions
on Matteo’s face.
Matteo quickly composed his complex expression, smiling as he said, “It’s nothing. I’ll just wait here for a while!”
He wouldn’t dare to disturb Sky Devourer Lord lightly!
All he could do was wait.
Inside Apricot Hall, there were benches specially arranged for patients, so Matteo didn’t have to stand. He hadn’t been waiting
long when he suddenly saw Duncan stand up and call out toward the door, “Master Lund.”
He’s here! Matteo also rose to his feet in an instant, his emotions surging uncontrollably.
“You’re such a stubborn old man,” a voice echoed from outside the door. “How many times have I told you? There’s no need to
be so formal with me. Why do you take everything so seriously?”
“Honoring the teacher and respecting their teaching is a traditional virtue, isn’t it?” Duncan said with a smile.

Respecting the old and cherishing the young is also a traditional virtue. Going by your logic, should I also bow to you?”
“No, no, you shouldn’t.”
The conversation between the two fell into the cars of Matteo, filling him with exhilaration.
After all, the sound coming from outside the door was a voice he was all too familiar with. It was none other than Sky Devourer
Lord!
Matteo didn’t dare to stand still any longer. He immediately rushed to the door and, facing the young man outside, he bowed
deeply and said, “Master, I knew it. I was certain you were still alive.
Emrys, who was about to enter the door, caught sight of Matteo. He teased, “So, it’s you. I thought a big black rat had sprung out
from somewhere intending to assassinate me!”
He wore a faint smile, showing no signs of surprise whatsoever.
Emrys had already sensed the presence of Matteo through that drop of blood. It would be more accurate to say that the moment
Matteo set foot in Jadeborough, Emrys had already detected him.
Upon seeing the smile on Emrys‘ face, Matteo was momentarily taken aback.
It was his first time realizing that beneath the dragon mask of Sky Devourer Lord, there was a face capable of expressing joy,
anger, sorrow, and happiness. Contrary to the rumors, Sky Devourer Lord wasn’t an emotionless, cold–hearted deity.
Emrys‘ teasing and joking tone further refreshed Matteo’s understanding of Sky Devourer Lord.
“Master, please spare me. Where would I have the courage to assassinate you?” Matteo was stunned for a moment.
When he came to his senses, his entire demeanor had noticeably relaxed a great deal. In particular, Emrys‘ face had a uniquely
friendly feel to it.
Compared to the infamous Sky Devourer Lord, who was known to change people’s mood at the mere mention of his name, they
seemed like two completely different people.
Master? On the side, Duncan, upon hearing that strange appellation, had his gaze shift peculiarly a few degrees.

If a young lady had referred to Emrys as her master, Duncan might not have found it so surprising. At most, he would have
silently sighed, commenting on how young people nowadays really knew how to have fun.
In Duncan’s time, the most they would do was to make someone call them “Daddy”
In summary, the sudden appearance of a grown man there, addressing Emrys as his master, was a highly unusual occurrence. It
was very easy for one to have negative assumptions.
Duncan’s peculiar gaze was immediately noticed by Emrys. In Emrys‘ heart, he cursed, This old fool’s thoughts are becoming
less and less innocent.
“Master...” At that moment, Matteo instinctively exclaimed.
In his opinion, there was nothing inappropriate about it.
Previously, Emrys hadn’t noticed anything wrong.
