Chapter 45 Medicine God Sect
The next morning dawned.
Outside the Lin family mansion, a black Audi A6 had been waiting for quite some time.
Yan Jidao had arrived here as dawn was barely breaking and had been waiting ever since.
Yet his expression revealed not a trace of impatience, as he sat quietly in the driver's seat waiting for Ye Ling to come out.
If others were to see this scene, it would surely drop many jaws!
The man hailed as the number one Divine Doctor in the south of the Yangtze, Yan Jidao, had actually taken on the role of a driver and had been waiting outside for hours.
Another half hour passed, and Ye Ling finally came into Yan Jidao's view.
Without a second thought, Yan Jidao immediately got out of the car and went to meet him.
"Master!"
"Hmm, why have you come so early? Is the situation in Gusu that urgent?"
Ye Ling glanced at him, questioning.
Yan Jidao hurriedly shook his head, smiling and saying, "I didn't want to keep Master waiting, so I came a bit earlier!"
Hearing this, a hint of amusement flashed in Ye Ling's eyes.
You came much earlier than just a bit.
At Ye Ling's level, he could sense even the slightest disturbance, so he knew of Yan Jidao's arrival from the outset.
However, Su Rou was weak and needed plenty of sleep.
Ye Ling also feared that any noise would awaken Su Rou, which was why he had only now appeared.
Ye Jiu also appeared alongside Ye Ling.
The trio chatted sporadically for another half hour before Su Rou finally arrived, a bit late.
"Oh, Divine Doctor Yan, you're here too?"
"Ye Ling, you should have told me earlier, then I would have gotten up sooner!"
Su Rou looked somewhat reproachfully at Ye Ling.
Yan Jidao hurriedly said, "Miss Su, you need plenty of rest because your body is weak, it's no trouble!"
Su Rou was about to say something else, but Ye Ling gently touched her head and said with a smile, "Alright, let's set off!"
Afterward, the four of them got into the car, Yan Jidao took the driver's seat, and Ye Jiu sat in the passenger seat.
Ye Ling and Su Rou sat in the back.
Watching the scenery continuously receding through the window, excitement sparkled in Su Rou's eyes.
Although just an adopted child of Old Master Su, the fact that such scenery could excite her so much indicated that her days at the Su family hadn't been easy.
"Ye Ling, look! That place is so beautiful!"
Following her gaze, Ye Ling saw a lake as clear as crystal, nestled like a gem among the mountains!
"Since Rou'er you like it, let us find some time to go there!"
"Really? That's wonderful!"
Su Rou's face burst into a rich smile upon hearing this. Your next read is at empire
Ye Ling gently touched her hair and whispered, "From now on, wherever you want to go, I'll take you there…"
Upon hearing this, Su Rou was briefly startled, her eyes flashing with excitement, but it quickly faded.
With her life hanging by a thread, how could she accompany Ye Ling to see all this beautiful scenery?
"Silly girl, haven't I told you? I'll cure you."
Ye Ling chuckled slightly, his voice tender as he said this, feeling a pang of heartache at her expression.
Su Rou turned to look at Ye Ling and nodded seriously, "I believe you!"
Throughout the journey, Su Rou kept looking at the scenery outside the window, her face always brimming with a smile.
Ye Ling quietly accompanied Su Rou, discussing with her which scenery was better.
In the front, Yan Jidao and Ye Jiu both wore expressions of indulgent amusement and did not intrude on their conversation.
...
In a quaint courtyard building in Gusu City.
What appeared to be just an ordinary courtyard was actually the southern Jiangnan division of the Medicine God Sect!
Four white-haired elders were gathered together, while a number of young people continuously surveyed the surroundings outside, looking every bit the guards they were.
"Yan Jidao said he could invite a senior figure, but who knows if that's actually true?"
One elder spoke indifferently.
Another scoffed, "Heh, Yan Jidao, that old fool thinks just because he's made a name for himself as the number one Divine Doctor in Jiangnan, he can meet any senior figure?"
"The path of medicine is not like the martial path. While powerful warriors are in abundance, top medical experts are rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns!"
"All of us are more or less on the same level, so why would Yan Jidao have the fortune to know a senior figure in medicine?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the two who hadn't spoken yet actually nodded in agreement.
"Our Sect Leader will arrive shortly, and then we'll see what senior figure Yan Jidao could possibly bring!"
One laughed lightly, his words laced with disdain.
Originally, Yan Jidao was just like the four of them, an elder of the Medicine God Sect's Jiangnan division.
However, due to some disagreements with the division's Sect Leader, Yan Jidao had left Gusu in anger and went to Jinling City!
Before long, another elder with steady steps entered the courtyard.
"Sect Leader! You have finally arrived!"
"I suppose Yan Jidao will arrive soon!"
Upon seeing the elder, the four stood up to greet him.
The Sect Leader nodded slightly, his voice tinged with impatience, "That Yan Jidao is just wasting our time, as if there could be a senior figure in Jinling City that our Medicine God Sect doesn't know about."
Hearing this, the four spoke in agreement.
Shortly after, a black Audi stopped outside the courtyard.
Yan Jidao walked into the courtyard with Ye Ling and two others!
"Sect Leader! Four Elders!"
Yan Jidao greeted the five people in the courtyard.
The elders merely nodded indifferently, showing no sign of the camaraderie expected of sect mates!
Seeing this, Ye Ling slightly furrowed his brows.
On the way here, Yan Jidao had also told him about the situation at the Medicine God Sect's Jiangnan division.
The current Sect Leader was Wang Qinghe.
The Grand Elder Qiao Yue, Second Elder Yuan Yongsi, Third Elder Qiu Yongnian, and Fourth Elder Hou Zhiqiang!
And Yan Jidao was the Fifth Elder of the Medicine God Sect, but due to disagreements with the Sect Leader, he had not returned for a long time.
"Yan Jidao, where is the senior figure you mentioned?"
Sect Leader Wang Qinghe asked indifferently.
Yan Jidao began to introduce Ye Ling to the group, "This is the senior figure in medicine I told you about!"
Ye Ling did not wish to reveal his identity, so Yan Jidao dared not divulge Ye Ling's true status.
Upon hearing this, Wang Qinghe and the others all wore expressions of disbelief.
Then Qiao Yue snorted coldly, his annoyance palpable, "Yan Jidao, with the Family Head and the others in dire straits, do you still have the leisure to bring a young man to mock us?"
"If something happens to the Family Head and the others, can you bear the responsibility?"
From the side, Qiu Yongnian also spoke harshly, "This kid whose beard hasn't even grown fully, he can be the senior you speak of?"
"Old man, haven't you heard the saying, 'Disaster comes from the mouth'?"
As soon as Qiu Yongnian finished speaking, Ye Jiu had already appeared before him, his voice icy.
Then Ye Jiu grabbed Qiu Yongnian by the neck, ready to end his life at any moment!
Qiu Yongnian flailed wildly, trying to break free from Ye Jiu's grip, but how could he, a frail elder, escape the grasp of someone as powerful as Ye Jiu?
