Chapter 104: Liu Jiaoxue’s Plea for Help
“Young Master Yang, we can’t just let this matter go!”
“Yes! Didn’t you say that guy was just an ordinary waste? How does he have such a strong background?”
“Hu Lin coming out really scared me!”
“What should we do now? If that punk really has Hu Lin backing him, how can we seek revenge for Old Si?”
Watching the group chattering with confusion, Yang Xiao Tian frowned tightly.
“Everyone, please calm down.”
“I can guarantee that guy is just a poor boy from a remote mountain village.”
“As for Hu Lin being his supporter? That’s impossible!”
“In my opinion, there are definitely some secrets in this that we cannot know.”
“Even if we take a step back, how could Bai Chen, being so young, be Hu Lin’s master?”
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.
“So what should we do, Young Master Yang?”
Yang Xiao Tian thought for a moment and said,
“I think you are all afraid of that guy’s intimidating background, so why not just tell Old Si directly?”
“When the time comes, Old Si will take action, and that guy will definitely face defeat!”
“And you all can take action against the people around him.”
“Don’t forget, he’s not alone!”
Hearing Yang Xiao Tian’s words, the surrounding peak innate experts exchanged glances and smiled.
How could they have forgotten this?
Yang Xiao Tian’s idea opened up a new perspective for them.
They might not be able to deal with Bai Chen, but they could handle the people around him!
When the time comes, they could also make a name for themselves in front of Si Dao Zi. If they gained Si Dao Zi’s gratitude, that could change their fates!
Yang Xiao Tian watched the expressions of the crowd and couldn’t help but smile slightly, but as he thought of Nan Yue Ran, he continued,
“If you are going to make your move, I have one condition: you cannot lay a hand on Nan Yue Ran. If possible, try to bring her to me.”
“If someone can accomplish that, I promise I will give a generous reward!”
“As for the others, feel free to do as you wish.”
Hearing this, many martial artists exchanged glances and chuckled.
“Didn’t expect Young Master Yang to have such a preference; we understand, we understand!”
Upon hearing their teasing, Yang Xiao Tian’s expression darkened.
Originally, Nan Yue Ran was meant to be his!
But suddenly, a guy named Bai Chen emerged and snatched Nan Yue Ran away!
Now, being misunderstood as someone who likes another man’s wife made Yang Xiao Tian feel very frustrated.
“Bai Chen, just you wait!”
Yang Xiao Tian cursed Bai Chen fiercely in his heart; this time, he would make sure to bring Bai Chen down!
…
Early the next morning, Bai Chen sent Bai Nian Nian to school and reopened his medicinal meal shop after a long time.
From the auction, he had obtained a piece of ginseng essence.
This ginseng essence wasn’t of much help to Nan Yue Ran, but it was a rare treasure for Bai Nian Nian.
As Bai Chen opened the medicinal meal shop, he started choosing the herbs to combine with the ginseng essence.
Before long, Bai Chen frowned.
“The aged medicinal materials are simply not enough; I need to check with Zhao Ruilong.”
Just as Bai Chen was about to call Zhao Ruilong, Zhao Ya appeared at the medicinal meal shop with Zhao Ruilong.
Bai Chen looked at the two in surprise, feeling a bit puzzled.
He couldn’t shake off the feeling that they had installed a camera next to his shop.
Otherwise, why did they always appear right on time as soon as he opened the door?
“Mr. Bai, it’s been a while! First, let me congratulate you on your great harvest!”
“You not only gathered divine medicine from the Shennong Great Forest but also had a fruitful auction!”
“I really didn’t expect you to have connections with Hu the Divine Doctor!”
Zhao Ruilong, sitting in a wheelchair, smiled at Bai Chen. As he approached Bai Chen, he stood up and walked over.
Bai Chen smiled slightly at this sight.
“Your leg is better?”
Zhao Ruilong nodded.
“Thanks to your medical skills, Mr. Bai!”
Bai Chen chuckled softly and then said,
“I was just about to call you; I didn’t expect you to arrive at the perfect time.”
“I’m looking to buy some medicinal materials that are over three hundred years old. Do you have any?”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ruilong stroked his beard and smiled.
“What you said, Mr. Bai, is very true; I’ll have someone bring them right over!”
Before long, the Zhao family members arrived with the medicinal materials.
Among them was Bai Chen’s familiar face, Zhao Hao Tian, who had clashed with him last time at the Zhao family’s.
Bai Chen looked at the medicinal materials and smiled in satisfaction.
“I’m not someone who isn’t grateful. I have two options for you; just choose what you prefer.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ruilong’s eyes lit up.
“First, I can help your granddaughter step into martial arts, and I will ensure she enters the innate stage.”
“Second, your Zhao family has helped me for so long; I can teach Zhao Ya some medical skills, but you cannot call me your master.”
Hearing Bai Chen’s words, Zhao Ruilong felt torn.
Both choices were very tempting for him.
If Zhao Ya entered the innate stage, it would mean the Zhao family could rank among the top families in Lintai!
At that point, Lintai wouldn’t just have three giants but would have four giants.
Coupled with the Zhao family’s special medicinal business, the guests drawn to them would come in a steady stream.
Surpassing the three giants would just be a matter of time!
But the second option involved Zhao Ya learning medical skills from Bai Chen.
This option excited Zhao Ruilong; he knew how terrifying Bai Chen’s medical skills were.
However, Bai Chen’s final words gave him pause.
Not being able to call Bai Chen his master meant that even if Zhao Ya studied under Bai Chen, there would be no master-disciple status.
It would make it impossible to foster a closer relationship with Bai Chen.
Seeing Zhao Ruilong’s conflicted expression, Bai Chen smiled lightly.
“Why not let Zhao Ya choose?”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ruilong was taken aback, then nodded with a smile.
“Zhao Ya, this is Mr. Bai’s choice for you, not for me. Think about it.”
However, Zhao Ruilong didn’t expect Zhao Ya to look at Bai Chen with determination.
“Mr. Bai, I want to learn medical skills from you!”
Bai Chen smiled lightly.
“Sure.”
As soon as Zhao Ya heard Bai Chen’s words, her heart began to race.
Since the moment she first saw Bai Chen, she had been drawn to him.
But Bai Chen already had a family, and she didn’t want to disrupt his home.
That didn’t mean she would distance herself from Bai Chen; she just buried those feelings deep within her heart.
Now, with an opportunity to get a little closer to Bai Chen, she chose without hesitation!
Guidance in martial arts might just offer her an energy channeling technique and some herbal soup.
But learning medical skills meant Bai Chen would need to personally teach her.
If she acted a little less skilled, Bai Chen would surely spend more time teaching her.
Zhao Ya suppressed her excitement, and the two people present had no idea of her feelings.
Even Bai Chen was unaware of the changes in Zhao Ya’s emotions.
At that moment, a familiar figure stumbled into the medicinal meal shop.
“Mr. Bai, please, save my grandfather!”
After a few days, Liu Jiaoxue appeared very pale, looking utterly exhausted.
But when Liu Jiaoxue looked up at Bai Chen, her tear-filled eyes radiated strong hope.
“Mr. Bai, only you can save my grandfather now. If you can help him, I’ll do anything you ask!”
