On the way, Xyla Quest saw many familiar faces. However, she didn't see the scarred bald man that had troubled her and Stanley Batton the most the other day. That man left a deep impression on Xyla.

That was because she and Stanley had nearly lost their lives to him.

Yaksha led them respectfully into the living room.

A pot of tea had been brewed and left on a burgundy, rosewood, national-style coffee table.

The teapot was transparent, and there was seemingly bitter, light green tea in it.

After walking up to the coffee table, the three of them sat down.

This time, Yaksha sat on his own on the single sofa.

Meanwhile, Xyla and Stanley sat next to each other on the long sofa.

As soon as Yaksha sat down, he picked up the teapot and poured each of them a cup of bitter-looking tea.

The light scent of tea filled their nostrils. It had a calming effect.

"Have some of this bitter tea. It'll cool you down, and it's good for your body..." Yaksha slowly picked up the cup of bitter tea in front of him and said.

The extreme bitterness spread in one's mouth once a sip was taken. Although Xyla didn't like it, she didn't show it.

Stanley behaved in the same way.

"Why didn't I see the scarred bald man?" Xyla casually asked.

Once this person was mentioned, a sadness filled Yaksha's eyes.

"What's the matter? Miracle Doctor?" Xyla instantly asked when she saw this.

"He's gone missing... It must be because I punished him too hard the other day. He felt too embarrassed, and he got upset..." Yaksha let out a long sigh. "To be honest, I'm rather fond of this disciple. However, since he's run off, forget it... Since he's made up his mind, he can do whatever he wants.

"Everything in this world is fated. Perhaps, our fates simply weren't intertwined enough," Yaksha added.

Xyla could sense that sadness in Yaksha....

She instantly spoke comfortingly. "Miracle Doctor, don't be sad. Perhaps, he might think things through and return one day."

Yaksha laughed bitterly. "I have a rule here... Those who leave will never have the right to return..."

"I see..." Xyla said.

With that, Xyla slowly put her teacup down. She then looked around carefully.

After making sure that there was nobody around, she looked at Yaksha and changed the topic. "Miracle Doctor, you mentioned that you have Yin-Yang Eyes... Do your eyes work like how they're described in novels?" Xyla asked.

"Yes... I can see ghosts that you can't. Sometimes, they would even come to me for help, like what you see in television dramas and novels... "Through the years, I've helped many of these individuals who traverse the world of Yin... Do you know why my medical skills are so exceptional? "That's because I've met genius doctors like Oribasius, Paracelsus, Herophilos, and Michael Servetus in person... They've taught me many things. "Come to think of it. Those were things that happened to me when I was eighteen... I suddenly acquired these Yin-Yang Eyes when I turned eighteen... "At first, I was terrified when I acquired this ability. That's because I could see supernatural beings that ordinary people couldn't see..." Yaksha explained.
