Godly Empress Doctor Chapter 4248: The Finale (3)

Previously on Godly Empress Doctor...

Lord Yan confronted the unexpected return of the Sacred Mu Cliff's disciples, expressing disbelief that Master Mu could have a new pupil despite claims of his death. Tension rose when the Princess Royal and Lord Yan questioned Patriarch Helian's motives behind the unfolding events. Meanwhile, Feng Wu's third and fourth senior brothers arrived, unveiling the truth that she was indeed the last pupil of Master Mu, raising both intrigue and ire among the royal and opposing forces. With alliances shifting and the stakes high, a confrontation looms as Lord Yan prepares to confront them.

Paying no mind to the looming conflict, Feng Wu pulled her third senior brother away from the crowd.

Their exit drew many gazes, but Patriarch Helian’s presence kept both the Princess Royal and Lord Yan occupied.

Once they were apart, Feng Wu stopped Chu Tianxiao and whispered urgently, “Senior Brother, was the third broken star piece located?”

Feng Wu had previously informed him that these fragments were the key to reviving her beautiful master.

To search for it, Chu Tianxiao had traveled to the Dayan Empire ahead of her.

A slight frown appeared on Chu Tianxiao’s face.

Feng Wu’s heart sank instantly. Was it possible? Had he failed to find it?

After a brief hesitation, the third senior brother sighed. “Locating the remaining fragments is the real challenge. There are four altogether…”

Excitement surged through Feng Wu as she clutched his sleeve. “Senior Brother, does that mean you have the third piece? You found it, didn't you?!” While Chu Tianxiao remained indifferent toward others, he was always gentle with Feng Wu.

He patted her head softly. “Yes.”

Feng Wu demanded, “Hand it over! Right now!”

Chu Tianxiao produced the broken star piece to show her. “The crowd is too large, and recovering it would be impossible if it were dropped. I should hold onto it until we reach safety. We are outnumbered here. The royal family still possesses several powerful Cultivators, and I doubt I can fend them all off alone. You should retreat now!”

With those words, Chu Tianxiao prepared to usher Feng Wu to safety.

But Feng Wu, fueled by adrenaline, snatched the broken star piece from Chu Tianxiao’s palm. “Senior Brother! Master is going to be with us!”

Feng Wu secured the fragment before Chu Tianxiao could even react. At that exact moment, the fighting erupted.

Chu Tianxiao commanded her, “Go find a secure spot to hide!”

Immediately after, Chu Tianxiao leaped into the fray.

A clash between peak-level Cultivators commenced.

Patriarch Murong, the abbot, the Princess Royal, and Lord Yan squared off against Feng Wu’s four senior brothers.

Normally, Feng Wu would have participated, as her involvement would have greatly increased the Sacred Mu Cliff’s victory margins. However, she simply didn't have a moment to spare.

Her third senior brother had just warned her about a formidable Cultivator backing the Dayan Empire.

Her sole priority now was to transfer the broken star piece into her ring space immediately so her beautiful master could finally awaken.

Tucked away in a hidden corner, Feng Wu leaned against a wall and projected her consciousness into the ring space.

Inside, the Little Phoenix and the fairy were waiting with bated breath, having overheard her talk with Chu Tianxiao.

The Little Phoenix’s voice shook with pure exhilaration.

“The third broken star piece? Is it really the third? The third?!”

Feng Wu pulled out the fragment without delay and presented it to the Little Phoenix.

Overwhelmed with joy, the Little Phoenix let out a sharp cry and collapsed in a faint.

Feng Wu ignored the bird and focused on placing all the collected star pieces over her master’s heart.

For all these years, her beautiful master had rested upon the cold jade bed, his eyes shut and his form untouched by the years.

Gazing at his ethereal features, Feng Wu sank to her knees. Tears began to stream down her face before she could stop them.

“Master…”
