Chapter 64: Nan Xuan Fei’s Invitation
The atmosphere in the hall felt somewhat heavy, and Fang Yu’s words made the Su family’s expressions stiffen.
One was the envoy from the Medicinal King Valley in Shudu.
The other was their esteemed guest, Mr. Bai.
They could not afford to offend either of them.
Su Zong Sheng looked at Fang Yu, smiling awkwardly.
"Envoy Fang, you may see Mr. Bai as young, but his medical skills are indeed top-notch!"
"My granddaughter’s illness was cured by Mr. Bai!"
Hearing Su Zong Sheng’s words, Fang Yu was taken aback.
"Just based on him?"
Su Zong Sheng nodded.
"That’s right, and Mr. Bai solved my granddaughter’s problem with just one bowl of herbal soup."
Upon hearing this, Fang Yu seemed lost in thought.
"Herbal soup? That can actually heal people?"
Saying this, Fang Yu approached Su Qing Li, raising his hand to check her pulse with a look of disbelief.
The reason the Medicinal King Valley had ties to the Su family was that over a decade ago, Su Zong Sheng had taken Su Qing Li to the Medicinal King Valley for treatment.
At that time, the Medicinal King Valley had determined that she would not live past twenty-five!
Yet now, Su Zong Sheng claimed someone had cured Su Qing Li’s injuries?
Wasn’t this just a slap in the face to the Medicinal King Valley?
After Fang Yu checked her pulse, the shock on his face gradually faded, replaced by disdain.
"Family Head Su, you trust this Mr. Bai so much?"
"With all due respect, your granddaughter’s health hasn’t improved at all!"
"I know you care deeply for your granddaughter, but you cannot be deceived by a fraud!"
Hearing Fang Yu’s words, Su Zong Sheng stood frozen.
"This can’t be possible, Envoy Fang!"
"Both Qing Li and I felt much better after having Mr. Bai’s herbal soup!"
"My granddaughter herself said she feels much improved!"
Su Qing Li also nodded at Fang Yu.
"Envoy Fang, I truly felt much better after having Mr. Bai’s herbal soup."
Fang Yu chuckled lightly in response.
"Mr. Su, if I’m not mistaken, your granddaughter is nearly twenty-five, right?"
"Don’t you know that patients can experience a phenomenon called ‘returning light’ before passing?"
Hearing Fang Yu’s words, Su Zong Sheng’s body trembled.
Even Su Qing Li couldn’t help but widen her eyes, her mouth agape in disbelief.
Seeing this, Fang Yu became even more convinced that Bai Chen was just a fraud.
He felt deeply disappointed.
"Mr. Su, our Medicinal King Valley came to Jiangnan for two reasons.
One is to hold our annual auction.
The other is to seek out famous doctors to collectively create ancient medical formulas."
"I originally thought the famous doctor you recommended was quite impressive, but it turns out he’s just a fraud!"
Fang Yu spoke passionately, showing no respect to Su Zong Sheng or Bai Chen.
"In this vast country, it is people like this who tarnish the reputation of traditional Chinese medicine!"
"If my master were here, he would certainly teach this person a lesson!"
Hearing this, Su Zong Sheng felt a chill in his heart but found himself unable to speak.
Fang Yu looked at Su Zong Sheng and waved his hand.
"Mr. Su, I understand that you are not familiar with medical theory, and I don’t mind that. I just detest such lowly people!"
"Herbal soup? There are no more than a handful of people in this world who understand herbal soup; someone as young as him could not possibly grasp it!"
Upon hearing the Medicinal King Valley members, Bai Chen slightly lifted his eyelids.
"I thought the people of Medicinal King Valley were impressive, yet they can’t even distinguish between returning light and restoring essence."
"Since ancient times, medicine and herbalism have been intertwined. It seems you are so focused on growing herbs that you’ve neglected basic medical skills—how ridiculous!"
Hearing this, Fang Yu snorted coldly.
"No matter how our Medicinal King Valley is, it’s not for a little brat like you to point fingers!"
"What qualifications do you have?"
Fang Yu glanced at Su Zong Sheng.
"Out of respect for Mr. Su, we won’t hold this against you, but I still want to remind Mr. Su not to be deceived by some frauds!"
After saying this, Fang Yu and the people from Medicinal King Valley left in disappointment.
After watching them go, Su Zong Sheng’s expression became complicated, and he hurried back to Bai Chen.
"Mr. Bai, I am truly sorry!"
"Even if the people from Medicinal King Valley don’t believe you, Qing Li and I will definitely trust you!"
"Only you can heal my granddaughter!"
Bai Chen gently waved his hand.
"Forget it, ignorance is no crime.
Today is Mr. Su’s birthday, and I don’t want to make things difficult for you."
Hearing this, Su Zong Sheng’s smile brightened significantly.
His biggest fear was a conflict between Bai Chen and the people from Medicinal King Valley, which would leave him in a difficult position.
"By the way, who was that master mentioned by the envoy? Do you know?"
Hearing Bai Chen’s question, Su Zong Sheng’s expression became serious as he took a deep breath.
"That Master Fang’s mentor is now the Number One Divine Doctor in the Nine Provinces!"
"Number One Divine Doctor in the Nine Provinces?"
Bai Chen instantly understood.
Isn’t that his disciple?
So Fang Yu must be his disciple’s grandchild?
Could it be that the Medicinal King Valley is a new power established during his years of slumber?
Thinking of this, a strange feeling surged in Bai Chen’s heart.
…
The Su family’s birthday banquet was held on time at noon.
The spacious Su family courtyard was filled with guests.
Nan Yue Ran and Bai Chen sat among the Nan family, coincidentally sharing a table with Nan Xuan Fei.
As the birthday banquet began, the people from Medicinal King Valley took the lead and went on stage to announce their matters.
Fang Yu scanned the densely gathered crowd in the courtyard, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.
These people could already represent the entire Lintai.
Moreover, since it was Su Zong Sheng’s birthday, people from other cities had also come to offer their congratulations.
If he announced the Medicinal King Valley auction here, the news would soon spread throughout Jiangnan.
"Everyone! I am Fang Yu from Medicinal King Valley!"
"Today, I am here to announce something at Mr. Su’s birthday banquet!"
"Our annual auction will be held in Lintai!"
"Everyone is welcome to attend and bid on any treasures of interest!"
Upon hearing Fang Yu’s words, the guests in the courtyard suddenly became lively.
Everyone first looked stunned, and then they were filled with unrestrained joy!
"The Medicinal King Valley auction is starting? No way! I need to prepare well this time!"
"Yeah! I had my eye on a herb at last year’s auction, but I didn’t have enough money! This year, I must seize this opportunity!"
"But the competition will be tough this time! It seems all the wealthy families from Jiangnan will attend!"
"Who cares? Just because they feast doesn’t mean we can’t have a taste!"
Fang Yu’s words ignited the atmosphere among everyone.
Many people were discussing the Medicinal King Valley auction, and the Nan family was no exception.
Nan Jiang Hong lightly cleared his throat.
"Since Medicinal King Valley is holding an auction, our Nan family needs to prepare too!"
"Let’s see if we can get a share of the benefits!"
Hearing this, Nan Xuan Fei smiled gently.
"Grandpa, don’t worry! I managed to get an invitation to the auction from Yang Ling!"
Upon hearing Nan Xuan Fei’s words, Nan Jiang Hong’s eyes widened.
"Really?"
Nan Xuan Fei smiled proudly, then took out her invitation.
"Here! Medicinal King Valley has given many invitations to the Yang family."
"Yang Ling also shared one with me! Our Nan family won’t need to worry; we will definitely have our share of spots at the auction!"
Sitting next to Nan Xuan Fei was a young woman, her close friend Lin Nuan Nuan.
However, this woman’s features were unattractive, with slanted eyes and thin lips that gave a sharp and harsh impression.
"Xuan Fei, you really have a good husband! Being connected to the Yang family is such a blessing!"
"You easily got an invitation that others are scrambling for; I’m truly envious!"
Nan Jiang Hong nodded in satisfaction.
"It’s all thanks to you, Xuan Fei! You really bring honor to our Nan family!"
Nan Xuan Fei proudly lifted her head and then looked arrogantly at Nan Yue Ran and Bai Chen.
"Sister, your health has never been great; we will help keep an eye on the herbs at the auction!"
"You don’t need to worry, as I have such a good husband! But I can only take three people with this invitation, I’m sorry, sister."
