"Let's go, this matter won't be left at this."
The people of the Dragon-Human clan left behind a warning before leaving.
In the end, the Third Princess, along with the shrewd old man, left filled with unwillingness and indignation, but there was nothing they could do. The three other experts turned into streams of flowing light, leaving resentfully.
It finally quieted down in the hall.
Ye Qingyu, with a thought, controlled the key token, letting the six black bronze battle puppets return to the square, and return into deep sleep.
"Haha, what a bunch of trash. I reckon that Third Princess secretly came to get the [Dragon Blood Halberd]d, and it was not the intention of the higher-ups of the Dragon-Human clan." Watching the Third Princess and the others walk away in dejection, Old Fish felt better than eating a chilled watermelon during the hottest periods of summer.
"It's very likely." Yu Xiaoxing nodded."Cousin has used the [Dragon Blood Halberd]d in the battle a few days ago. Somebody must have recognized it, and spread it out. Who would have thought that the Third Princess would come to take it back in such an aggressive way when she heard about it... It's not that there's no leeway for the situation to turn around. There are many experts in the Dragon Blood Imperial Court, they wouldn't be so petty."
This was considered as comforting everybody, lest the members of Heaven Wasteland diplomatic corps feel pressured.
Ye Qingyu smiled, "That's right, but the Third Princess of the Dragon-Human clan is really not good enough. Even the precious treasure of her clan did not want to be used by her. It is pitiful. A person like her is nothing to be feared, but that old man of the Dragon-Human clan is cunning and shrewd. This was most likely planned by him... However, what happened today is also a good thing. The Dragon-Human clan has been alarmed, and they will come to the door for the [Dragon Blood Halberd]. This halberd in the end has to be returned to the Dragon Blood Imperial Court. I have made an oath to the martial spirit in the 18th district."
At this point, the matter was considered as temporarily resolved.
......
Leaving the hall, Ye Qingyu again headed to the West courtyard.
Yesterday he had asked Luo Yi to take some of the divine grass and treasures he obtained from the 18th district to sell in Heaven Connect City. The large number of resources he got in exchange was given to Wang Zhen to buy medicinal herbs and medicines. The injured people in the West courtyard had better treatment, but those so-called famous doctors of Heaven Connect City...
Ye Qingyu was going there to solve this matter.
Just as he stepped into the West courtyard, he saw a dozen of Wang Zhen's young apprentices decocting medicinal herbs. A strong herbal fragrance filled the nose. Ye Qingyu gently took a sniff, and from the smell, could distinguish the composition of the formula. He could not help but knit his brows in a frown.
"Lord Ye."
"We pay our respects to Palace Lord Ye."
The young apprentices were very well behaved, bowing respectfully when they saw Ye Qingyu.
Ye Qingyu responded with a smile, and let them continue to concentrate on the decoction. He came to the central consultation hall in the center of West courtyard.
Pushing the door open, he saw Wang Zhen arguing angrily with the two famous doctors of Heaven Connect City.
The two famous doctors were both dressed in silk robes and exuded a condescending attitude. They wore a face of disdain and contempt, and evidently didn't care much about Wang Zhen's anger and argument.
Ye Qingyu walked in, and someone bowed.
It was only then when Wang Zhen noticed Ye Qingyu and came over to pay respect with an embarrassed look on his face.
"What's the matter?" Ye Qingyu looked at him.
Before Wang Zhen could say anything, one of the famous doctors of Heaven Connect City spoke, his tone filled with disdain, "I say what is the matter with you lowly people? Well? Do you want to save them? If you want the wounded people to live, then listen to our arrangement. You're an official of the Heaven Wasteland diplomatic corps, aren't you? You came at the right time, can you tell this guy who doesn't understand medicine at all, right, right, right, this stupid thing called Wang Zhen to move aside and not question our medical skills. He's wasting time..."
"That's right, tell that stupid guy called Wang Zhen to get lost, or we'll go." Another famous doctor also made a threat, looking at Ye Qingyu with a sneer on his face.
Wang Zhen was infuriated, but dared not to show it in front of Ye Qingyu. His facial expression continuously changed, and eventually he clenched his teeth to endure this fury and said to Ye Qingyu, "Lord, subordinate has disappointed you. Taking into consideration the overall situation, I will withdraw voluntarily. As long as the injuries of the wounded brothers will be better, it doesn't matter."
With that, he turned and was about to leave.
How would Ye Qingyu not be able to tell how Wang Zhen was feeling at this time? He patted him on the shoulder, "The overall situation? What overall situation, you think these incompetent idiots can really cure our brothers' injuries? You don't have to go, tell these swindling so-called famous doctors to scram."
Wang Zhen was stunned.
"Lord, you..." He twisted around, staring at Ye Qingyu in disbelief, "You're saying..."
Ye Qingyu smiled, "Today I can conclude that these so-called famous doctors of Heaven Connect City, him and him..." Ye Qingyu pointed to the two arrogant so-called famous doctors, and then pointed to the two who sat at the side leisurely drinking tea, "Lock those swindling guys away first, until they spit out the benefits that they have swallowed. If they do not obediently do so, then break their legs. Haha do you really think my Heaven Wasteland diplomatic corps are uneducated, uncivilized fools? You dare come to the door to cheat us."
The moment these words came out, the two famous doctors who were originally haughty and arrogant suddenly had an abrupt change of expression.
"What did you say?" The man who started it was furious, pointed to Ye Qingyu and smiled coldly, "Who are you? Well? At such a young age, how dare you say I'm a liar? Little guy, we're doctors hired by your Empress. Do you want to save people? Well?"
The other doctor also flew into a rage and snapped, "Do you know what injuries your people had sustained? Well? Don't cure them... Let's go, what attitude, I can't stand it."
"This..." Wang Zhen was hesitant.
After a vicious battle, some people of the Heaven Wasteland diplomatic corps were very severely wounded, and were affected by a foreign force. Even if they were barely able to survive, the foreign force could not be suppressed and their strength could not be restored. Adding to this, their life yuan and vitality were affected. For a martial artist, it was simply worse than death. Therefore, the Empress had issued an order that no matter what the cost, she hoped that the injured could fully recover.
Wang Zhen was regarded as one of the Medical Gods of Heaven Wasteland Domain, but could not fully fulfill the request of the Empress.
Although he did not understand the treatment and method that these famous doctors had used, but they really did seem to have some effect. The situation of the injured people had improved a lot. However, the famous doctors really did not have the compassion of a doctor, not only did they increase the price every now and then, they were not eager to treat the wounded people at all and only ate and drank. At most only one third of their time was spent on the treatment of the wounded people, while the rest was spent on drinking tea and resting. As a result he could not hold back but snap at these so-called famous doctors.
Although Wang Zhen was furious to be criticized by the famous doctors in front of Ye Qingyu, but on another thought, as long as he could save lives, he did not mind to suffer a little. Thus, he accepted their criticism and was about to turn away.
But Wang Zhen did not think that Ye Qingyu would identify these people as scammers and wanted to arrest them... This would vent his hatred, but if they really arrested them, then what about the injured brothers?
After some thought, Wang Zhen wanted to persuade Ye Qingyu.
Ye Qingyu saw through the thoughts of the Medical God of Heaven Wasteland Domain with one glance, shook his head, and explained, "Leader Wang, you are thinking too much. These few people are not so-called famous doctors, you have been fooled by them. It's only because they used many medicinal herbs and plants that do not grow in Heaven Wasteland Domain so you are unfamiliar with them. Also you haven't read the medical scriptures of the outside world. In fact, given your medical knowledge, attainments and talent, with more contact with some of the medicines of the outside world, it would only take you one year to surpass these crooks..."
Speaking of which, Ye Qingyu looked at the furious doctors of Heaven Connect City, "I have already investigated the so-called pills that you are selling at high prices. Whether it is the Sky Dragon's Whiskers, Cold Spirit Seed, Three-Coloured Golden Silver Grass, or the Violet-Gold Dragon Ginseng, they are all poorly refined. I have watched your refining techniques, you are only at the Spirit Pill boundary. The prescription that you made the young apprentices formulate outside is nothing more than a decoction that enriches the blood and improves qi. Each one is incredibly expensive, and even if you had added something called the roots of the Spirit Xuan Yuan Grass, the decoction is still inferior to the [Rejuvenation Pill] that Wang Zhen created. It is simply a medicinal formula that wastes natural resources. Even if the root of the Spirit Xuan Yuan Grass was added, the effect is only the stimulation of vitality for a short period of time, and will not last. Instead it harms the wounded people... What? Am I right?"
The two prideful and arrogant doctors suddenly turned ashen.
The eyes of the two were as though they had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
The other two famous doctors who were sitting leisurely on the chair, spat out the tea from their mouth, jumped out like rabbits and stared at Ye Qingyu in disbelief.
When Wang Zhen heard up to here, lights burst out of his eyes all of a sudden.
As Ye Qingyu had said, his medical knowledge was profound and his talent was outstanding. It was only because he came from Heaven Wasteland Domain that his vision was limited, so he was trapped in a shackle. Upon hearing this from Ye Qingyu, he suddenly understood something. He recalled what happened these days and immediately knew that what Ye Qingyu had said was the truth. He had been deceived.
"Humph, I don't know what you're talking about. But since you don't trust us, I'm going to leave. Your Heaven Wasteland diplomatic corps will have to find someone else." One of the famous doctors flicked his sleeve, and with a look of incomparable anger, was about to leave.
