“Basic-level medicine master?” Hearing Shi Yu’s words, Medicine Master Xiao’s expression changed as he glared at Yang Yunchong sternly and asked, “Third Master Yang, was the young man who just went in really going to treat Chief Yang?”

“Medicine Master Xiao…” Yang Yunchong started awkwardly. After all, putting himself in his shoes, if he were Medicine Master Xiao, he would have been upset too. Finally, he nodded his head.

That young man had been brought here by Yang Zixi to treat his big brother; how could he possibly go in and ask him to leave? Although he did not believe that the young man understood his big brother’s poison, but since the old man in front of him had no solution, perhaps there was no harm in letting the young man try.

“Medicine Master Xiao, Medicine Master Zhou who just went in is actually quite capable.” Just then, the lady behind the young girl spoke up.

“Oh?” Medicine Master Xiao broke into laughter and looked at the lady curiously. He asked, “I do want to know… what kind of skills could that sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy possibly have?”

“Medicine Master Xiao, you are an intermediate-level medicine master… so if I ask you to identify what illness I have with just a look, would you be able to tell?” asked the lady.

Just now, in the pharmacy, that young man in the white shirt had been able to tell that she had a hidden illness at just a glance, and he was even able to fully explain her condition. Even the ten best medicine masters in the Chu royal city could not do that.

“Identify what illness you have with just a look?” asked Medicine Master Xiao calmly. “Unless it is an obvious disease… but if it is a hidden illness, even the superior-level medicine master of the imperial court would not be able to tell just by looking. Are you trying to tell me that… the boy who just went in could identify your hidden illness with just a look?” As he spoke, his face was filled with disdain.

“That’s right,” answered the lady as she nodded seriously. “He could tell what hidden illness I had with just a look.”

“Ridiculous!” Medicine Master Xiao did not believe her words at all. Looking at the lady as if she were an idiot, he turned to Yang Yunchong and said, “Third Master Yang, from today onwards, I, Xiao Chen will not step into the Yang household nor have any connections with the Yang family… even if a Yang family member dies in front of me, I will not help at all.” With that, Xiao Chen snorted and left.

“This…” Yang Yunchong smiled bitterly.

Yang Zixi could barely conceal the anger flashing in her eyes as she glared at Shi Yu and asked furiously, “Shi Yu, is this what you wanted? Are you satisfied now?” If Shi Yu had not added fuel to the fire, Medicine Master Xiao would not have been so antagonized and even swear to never work with the Yang family or treat a Yang family member ever again.

“Sister Zixi, how could you blame it on me? All I said was the truth. If you had not brought that lad to our home, Medicine Master Xiao would not have bumped into him,” responded Shi Yu as he shook his head.

“Young Master Shi, you can’t blame it on Zixi either,” said Yang Yunchong with a sigh. “After all, she had not known that Medicine Master Xiao was here.”

He then turned to Yang Zixi and said, “Zixi, please don’t take it to heart either… Medicine Master Su has never worked with the Yang family before anyway, and even if he was looking for a family to work with, he would not find us. As for him no longer wanting to treat us, there are so many medicine masters around the Chu royal city that it makes no difference.”

“Third Uncle, don’t try to comfort me, this is indeed my fault.” Yang Zixi sighed, though her eyes were hopeful. Just now, Medicine Master Xiao, who was one of the ten top medicine masters in Chu royal city, had said that even the superior-level medicine master of the imperial court could not possibly tell one’s hidden illness from just a look. Didn’t that mean that the superior-level medicine master of the imperial court also could not possibly tell her small illnesses from just a look?

“That Medicine Master Zhou should be quite capable… who knows if he will be able to heal Uncle.” Although this was what she felt, Yang Zixi did not have much hope. Just now, Medicine Master Xiao had said that the poison had already entered her uncle’s vital organs.

As she thought of this, Yang Zixi’s face was depressed, her eyes revealing tormented pain. From young, she had lost her parents, so her uncle had brought her up single-handedly. In her eyes, her uncle was like her father, just a difference in the title. Hence, since her uncle had been poisoned half a year ago, she had been unable to sleep at night, and the little sickness that the young man had identified had also manifested in her.

“Let’s see if he is able to do anything.” Just as Yang Zixi brought the lady behind her together into the room, Shi Yu and Yang Yunchong were also about to enter.

Suddenly, two hurried voices from outside the courtyard caused them to stop in their steps.

“Third Master, I heard that Young Master Shi had brought Medicine Master Xiao over, what’s the situation now?”

“Third Master, Medicine Master Xiao is one of the top ten medicine masters in Chu royal city and is superb at dealing with poisons, does he have a treatment?”

Along with the two voices were two old men, one plump and the other skinny, but with identical features.

“Head Elder, Second Elder.” Seeing the two old men enter the courtyard, Yang Yunchong rushed forward to greet them. The two men were the head elders of the Yang family, Yang Ping and the second elder, Yang An. The two of them were identical twins and also level-five adepts whose power was second only to the Yang family chief.

“Greetings to the two elders.” Just as Yang Ping and Yang An were looking at Yang Yunchong expectantly, Shi Yu greeted the two of them. “Medicine Master Xiao could do nothing about Yang family chief’s poisoning.”

It was only then that Yang Ping and Yang An noticed Shi Yu, but before they had a chance to greet Shi Yu, their expression changed. Even Medicine Master Xiao, whose detoxifying capabilities was comparable to the superior-level medicine master of the imperial court, had no way to detoxify their chief? Didn’t that mean that there was no way to detoxify the poison in their Yang family chief?

Then Yang Yunchong spoke, “Head Elder, Second Elder… Medicine Master Xiao said that Big Brother has used too many ten-year survival weeds, and so it’s caused him to have a resistance to it. After one or two more stalks of the weed, the ten-year survival weed will no longer have any effect on him.”

Hearing this, the faces of Yang Ping and Yang An darkened even more.

“Does God really want to make the Yang family a preeminent family once again?” after Yang Ping recovered, he asked sadly.

“Elders,” continued Shi Yu. “Medicine Master Xiao not only said that there was no way to detoxify the chief, but before he left, he even said that he would not work with the Yang family again and that he would not treat anyone from the family. Even if one of us dies in front of him, he won’t lift a finger.”

Yang Yunchong frowned slightly. He did not expect Shi Yu to make matters worse at this point. Of course, Shi Yu was the first young master of the tycoon Shi family, so even though he was unhappy, he could not say anything for fear of offending him.

“What?!”

“What is going on?!”

Hearing Shi Yu’s words, both Yang Ping and Yang An were shocked. After finding out what had happened from Shi Yu, their faces darkened even further. “Ridiculous! How could a sixteen or seventeen-year-old teenager, a basic-level medicine master at best, have the ability to treat the chief? I used to think that Lady Zixi was reliable… but how could she have been so foolish this time?”

With that, Yang Ping and Yang An walked into the room where the Yang family chief was in. Yang Yunchong, Shi Yu and the old servant behind Shi Yu also followed into the room.

…

Lying on the bed in the room was an old man who looked sixty or seventy years old. He was none other than the chief of the Yang family, Yang Yunji. The old man looked haggard with wrinkles all over his face. It was impossible to tell that he was just over forty years of age… Yang Yunji was only 47 this year.

Zhou Donghuang stood before him and stared at him calmly. After his diagnosis, he had gotten a better understanding of the poison in Yang Yunji’s body… the Yang family chief had been infected with snake poison, and it was the poison of a very rare snake.

“Chief Yang, you have been infected with poison from the Russell’s viper,” Zhou Donghuang told Yang Yunji.

“Rubbish!” Just as the words left Zhou Donghuang’s mouth, an old voice resounded around the room. Soon, a plump old man entered the room, followed by a skinny old man. It was the plump old man who had spoken.

“Head Elder, Second Elder.” Seeing the two men, Yang Zixi greeted the two respectfully.

“Lady Zixi, how could you bring this young boy here to treat the chief? Now, you’ve offended Medicine Master Xiao,” Yang An, who had followed behind Yang Ping, asked Yang Zixi as he frowned. “Although we can always find other medicine masters if any of us falls sick. But what is someone is poisoned? Medicine Master Xiao is an expert at treating poison… his skills at treating poison are unparalleled in the whole Yunyang country. Now that we’ve offended him today, we’ve landed ourselves in trouble.” As he spoke, his tone got harsher.

“Psh!” Before Yang Zixi could respond, Fu, who had been standing behind Zhou Donghuang, could not help but laugh sarcastically. “That Medicine Master Xiao you speak of cannot even treat your chief’s poison, how dare he claim to be an expert! What a joke!”

Just as Yang An glared at Fu, Yang Ping stared at Zhou Donghuang angrily. “Lad, after our chief was poisoned, there was no wound… what makes you think he was poisoned by a snake? Also… I’ve never heard of the Russell’s viper; are you making that up?”
