After obtaining the Yin-Yang inheritance, I became invincible.

The Xiao family's living room was filled with laughter and chatter as everyone toasted with tea instead of wine.

"Honey, I want to go too!"

Zhao Qiaohui said coquettishly.

Xiao Changkong asked with a hint of doubt, "What are you going to do?"

With a "whoosh," Zhao Qiaohui pulled out a dagger.

"That guy dared to bully my cousin and even injured your apprentice. I'm going to stab him twice."

Xiao Changkong nodded without hesitation: "Alright, there's no danger anyway. Consider it an opportunity to broaden your horizons."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Peifang began shaking Zhao Tianhu's arm.

"Honey, I want to stab that idiot a few times too."

She now hates Yun Chen so much she's practically itching to bite him.

"No problem! You can vent your anger today!" Zhao Tianhu readily agreed.

Li Peifang and Zhao Qiaohui, arm in arm, were filled with righteous indignation, each holding a gleaming dagger, vowing to stab as many times as possible tonight.

Zhao Tianhu took a picture of the group of celebrities, got up and went to the courtyard, and sent it to Qian Yujiao.

Soon, Qian Yujiao called.

"Master, you're amazing! All three hall masters are here! Wait, who's that old man?"

Zhao Tianhu smiled smugly: "Jiaojiao, have you ever heard of Xiao Changkong?"

Upon hearing this, Qian Yujiao immediately exclaimed "Ah!", clearly startled.

"Are you Xiao Changkong, a ninth-rank master?"

"That's right! To be on the safe side this time, I not only invited three hall masters, but also Elder Xiao. Aren't I generous enough?"

Qian Yujiao was about to nod when she suddenly realized something was wrong.

"You're trying to get more money, aren't you?"

Zhao Tianhu chuckled: "You can't say that! When Old Master Xiao makes a move, it'll cost at least thirty million. I have a good relationship with him, so you can just add another twenty million."

Qian Yujiao was so angry that she started cursing.

"Are you fucking desperate for money? You're asking me for 60 million for arresting some good-for-nothing?"

Zhao Tianhu, however, adopted a nonchalant attitude, as if he were a dead pig unafraid of boiling water.

"Jiaojiao, don't be angry. If you think my price is too high, you can find someone else."

When he overheard Qian Yujiao asking Qian Jinyu for money in the car today, he knew that Qian Yujiao was definitely keeping Yun Chen's matter a secret from Qian Jinyu.

Moreover, Qian Yujiao seems to be in a great hurry to bring Yun Chen back.

Sure enough, Qian Yujiao was silent for a moment, then said, "Fine! But I demand that he not die, and he can't be missing an arm or a leg!"

Zhao Tianhu readily agreed.

If we beat Yun Chen to the point of near death and then get those 40 million back, we'll make a killing on this deal.

As for the other three hall masters, that's a matter for the gang; they don't need to pay a single penny.

At this moment, Su Luowei had already driven to the front of the City Lord's Mansion.

As soon as the two got out of the car, they saw Yu Chunlin at the gate, looking anxious.

"Miss Su, Mr. Yun, you've finally arrived."

He quickly went to meet him.

"The expert consultation has been moved up."

Yun Chen was taken aback, then looked at Yu Chunlin with a puzzled expression and asked, "You, the dean, didn't even participate, and they already started?"

Yu Chunlin shook his head with a wry smile.

"Our hospital treated the city lord's daughter before, but the effect was minimal. It's already a great favor that the city lord allowed me to participate this time."

Yun Chen explained that he was representing both Shengjing Hospital and the Su family today.

Yu Chunlin had absolutely no objections; this was all thanks to the freebie.

"Mr. Yun, there is something you must know. Sun Dechuan previously said that he was extending the life of the city lord's daughter, each time for six months. But just now he suddenly said that he found a method in an ancient book that can cure the cold pulse disease in one go."

Yun Chen's expression turned to surprise.

He had previously heard Sun Dechuan mention that he wanted to extend the life of the city lord's daughter.

That means using strong-smelling medicine to relieve cold pulse not only treats the symptoms but not the root cause, but also damages the patient's body.

Within two years at most, the patient will be completely out of balance, beyond even the help of a miracle worker.

However, there are indeed ways to cure the condition of cold pulse, but these are all secret methods, not something you can find by simply flipping through ancient books.

Even within the inheritance he received, it belonged to the category of advanced medical skills.

"Something's not right here! Let's go inside and talk about it."

Yu Chunlin quickened his pace and led Yun Chen and Su Luowei to the door of the city lord's daughter's boudoir.

Su Luowei suddenly pulled Yun Chen aside and instructed, "City Lord Qiao Qingshan isn't as good-tempered as he seems on the surface. He's extremely shrewd, so you must be careful what you say. Also, his daughter, Qiao Zhiyao, doesn't have a very good relationship with me."

Yun Chen narrowed his eyes and smiled.

The relationship is bad; it's probably all due to the petty thoughts between women.

However, it's not hard to conclude from this that Qiao Zhiyao must also be a great beauty; only in this way could a rift develop between the two women.

Qian Yujiao, that spoiled idiot, caused all these events because Su Luowei stole Qian Jinyu's title of the most beautiful woman in Canghai.

However, Yun Chen knew that Su Luowei hadn't asked about that matter yet, probably because she didn't want to delve into it further.

Especially since Su Luowei has a seemingly powerful family she married into, this matter needs to be kept even more secret.

"Alright! Don't think of me as the kind of person who only causes trouble, okay?"

Su Luowei gave Yun Chen a beautiful, disdainful look.

"Troublemaker! Let's go!"

Inside her boudoir, Qiao Zhiyao lay on the bed, her face an unnaturally pale white.

Qiao Qingshan stood by the bed with a solemn expression.

He Qiming, the captain of the city lord's guards, who was at the eighth rank of the day after tomorrow, stood in the corner.

Even now, his eyes are full of vigilance.

Several elderly men with white hair and beards surrounded the two, their expressions respectful, much like humble and eager elementary school students wanting to ask questions.

Of the two men in the middle, the one with his head held high and an arrogant expression on his face was Sun Dechuan.

The other person was about seventy years old, with white hair and a youthful face, and had the demeanor of a wise and venerable person.

Although Yun Chen had never met this person before, based on the information he had obtained previously, this should be the legendary doctor Gu Chenghua.

Upon seeing Yun Chen, Sun Dechuan was visibly taken aback, and then glared at Yu Chunlin.

"Dean Yu, who told you to bring him here?"

Yu Chunlin said with a faint smile, "Dr. Sun, Mr. Yun is now a nominal expert at our Shengjing Hospital."

City Lord Qiao Qingshan sensed the tension and immediately gestured for Su Luowei to remain still, then smiled and nodded to her.

"Greetings, Lord City Lord."

Su Luowei stepped forward gracefully and calmly to greet them.

"Weiwei hasn't come to my house in a long time. You must be very busy lately?"

Officials always speak in circles, and Su Luowei naturally knew that they were asking her why she had come.

"My lord, my grandfather and father are both concerned about Yao Yao's condition, so they specially invited Mr. Yun to take a look at her."

Qiao Qingshan nodded slightly and looked at Yun Chen.

"Young man, how old are you? Where are you from? Who is your master?"

From this series of questions, which sounded like a census, Yun Chen knew that the other party thought he was a greenhorn.

Before he could speak, Sun Dechuan clasped his hands in a fist salute to Qiao Qingshan and said:

"Sir, he's the spendthrift son who squandered the Yun family's fortune three years ago. He's just an ignorant and incompetent swindler."

Qiao Qingshan nodded thoughtfully, seemingly recalling that there had once been a Yun family in Canghai City.

"Don't make false accusations!"

Su Luowei angrily rebuked.

"If it weren't for Mr. Yun, my grandfather would have had his leg amputated by you."

Sun Dechuan scoffed disdainfully:

"This little girl doesn't know anything about medicine, I'm not going to argue with you."

He turned to Qiao Qingshan, clasped his hands in greeting, and said:

"Sir, I noticed that Old Master Su didn't have any dietary restrictions, so I said he needed to 'moderate' his diet. I didn't expect the Su family to misunderstand me and insist that I should amputate Old Master Su's leg!"

Qiao Qingshan frowned.

"Oh? Is that so?"

Sun Dechuan put on a wronged expression and sighed:

"With my medical skills, treating Old Master Su's illness would be a piece of cake. But I don't know where this kid got his hands on some unorthodox techniques that woke Old Master Su up."

Qiao Qingshan asked doubtfully, "It's a good thing that you can cure Elder Su's illness."

Sun Dechuan immediately became indignant, and his voice rose:

"That's an evil technique that comes at the cost of lifespan! Old Master Su will definitely die within three days!"
