To heal the sick and save lives, start with the Sunflower Manual!

Inside the elegant pavilion.

The aroma of wine wafted through the air, accompanied by a soft, coquettish voice.

Upon entering, one sees two young men dressed in elegant blue robes sitting at a table, each accompanied by two strikingly beautiful women.

One of them looked quite content, enjoying the wine that the woman beside him was offering to his lips.

Upon seeing Zhou Shaolin bring in outsiders, the two men's gazes naturally fell upon Lu Yao, carrying a hint of scrutiny.

"My two senior brothers, let me introduce you to a friend."

After Zhou Shaolin brought Lu Yao in, he explained with a smile, "This is Lu Yao from Jishetang, a doctor in the west of the city. He's the one who discovered the poison in my body."

Upon hearing this, the two men softened their scrutinizing gazes.

The young man with thick eyebrows on the left slowly stood up and said with a smile, "I just arrived today and heard about this from Junior Brother Zhou. Doctor Lu's medical skills are superb. Tonight, we must drink until we drop."

"You two young heroes are too kind. My meager medical skills were of no help whatsoever."

Lu Yao explained with a touch of humility, "I was only able to recognize the Seven Yang Powder thanks to the medical book left by my master; it was just a stroke of luck."

He became somewhat curious about the identities of these two people.

For Zhou Shaolin to call him "senior brother"...

They shouldn't be from the Xuanming Sect, since the Xuanming Sect wouldn't dare to be that bold.

After Zhou Shaolin led Lu Yao to sit at the table, he put his arm around a girl and said with a smile, "Brother Lu, you're not a member of the martial arts world, so you might not know the identities of these two. Let me introduce them to you properly."

"These two are disciples of the Wanhua Sword Sect. This is Senior Brother Zhang Xuyang, who is known as 'Wanhua Liuyun'."

The young man with thick eyebrows raised his glass and gestured slightly.

It's clear they look down on Lu Yao.

If it weren't for Lu Yao's abilities, he probably wouldn't have been able to get through this door.

As for the young man with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes next to him, his disdain and arrogance were practically written all over his face, and he was completely unwilling to give Lu Yao even a second glance.

"The one next to me is even more impressive. He is Cui Huai, the 'Jiangnan Swordsman,' who is also the second senior brother of the Wanhua Sword Sect."

Zhou Shaolin winked at Lu Yao and said, "My Zhou family's current status is entirely due to the support of the Wanhua Sword Sect. Today's event is mainly to welcome my two senior brothers."

Hearing this, Lu Yao's heart sank slightly.

Is the Zhou family backed by the Wanhua Sword Sect?

What role does the Xuanming Sect play?

Moreover, these are the Xuanming Sect and the Wanhua Sword Sect, martial arts sects that you would never normally see. Why have they all come to Jinling City recently?

Surely the Wanhua Sword Sect isn't also targeting us?

"Junior Brother Zhou, let's not involve outsiders in our family matters."

Cui Huai remained indifferent, and even seemed to be asking people to leave.

Sensing the displeasure in his voice, Zhou Shaolin felt somewhat embarrassed, after all, he was the one who had invited Lu Yao in.

He immediately explained, "Senior Brother Cui, you've misunderstood. Aren't you looking for that item? I thought Doctor Lu had some skills in the west of the city, so I thought I'd ask him for some information."

Upon hearing this, Cui Huai's expression softened somewhat, but it still carried arrogance and disdain.

Zhang Xuyang, standing nearby, chuckled and said, "Dr. Lu's medical skills are superb. I wonder if you've ever heard of the Crimson Blood Flower, such a rare and precious herb?"

Crimson Blood Flower?!

So they came for the Crimson Blood Flower.

Lu Yao naturally knew about the Crimson Blood Flower, which was the main ingredient of the Crimson Blood Great Rejuvenation Pill. One pill could greatly increase a person's power, comparable to more than ten years of arduous cultivation.

A single petal can neutralize countless poisons, yet the entire flower is a rare and potent poison in the world.

Rumor has it that the Crimson Blood Flower has disappeared long ago, and there has been no news of it for more than ten years.

but……

Lu Yao knew this because he had a Crimson Blood Flower in his possession!

That was a reward from the system for treating patients.

At the time, he felt it was unnecessary and just placed it in the yard as a decoration. Later, he found that the red blood flower looked a bit wilted after being exposed to the sun, so he simply moved it to the cellar and left it there.

Looking back now, it's surprising that the Xuanming Sect suddenly sent people over, and even ransacked my house.

This is the Crimson Blood Flower we're looking for.

Even the Wanhua Sword Sect, one of the Seven Gates and Twelve Schools, has come.

Faced with Zhang Xuyang's question, Lu Yao feigned ignorance and shook his head, asking in confusion, "I am ignorant and do not know what kind of rare herb this Crimson Blood Flower is?"

"Fine, if you don't know, then so be it."

Zhang Xuyang didn't bother to explain further, and waved his hand, saying, "Junior Brother Zhou, you go and greet your friends, don't worry about the two of us."

This is practically a direct statement, clearly letting Zhou Shaolin make his own choice.

You can stay and keep me company.

Either he goes to drink with Lu Yao.

Even a fool knows which one to choose.

Zhou Shaolin stood up to see Lu Yao out, and said with a smile, "Brother Lu, please forgive me. My two senior brothers became famous at a young age and have some strength in the martial arts world. You are not a martial arts person, so it is normal that you are not valued. Don't take it to heart."

He had a very good impression of Lu Yao, after all, she was a truly skilled doctor.

These days, it's always a good idea to build a good relationship with a doctor.

As for those in the martial arts world...

It's a good thing that Lu Yao isn't involved.

"Young Master Zhou is too kind. My medical skills are shallow, and I have made you laugh at me today."

Lu Yao glanced at the two people in the room and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, I will keep what happened today to myself and will never let anyone else know."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Shaolin became even more satisfied with Lu Yao.

The saying goes, "Those who understand the times are the heroes."

Hey, Lu Yao is a real talent.

"Haha, Brother Lu, you're too kind. Today, all your and your friends' expenses are on me, so have fun!"

Zhou Shaolin, with the air of a seasoned womanizer, said, "I've had someone arrange things for you. Those girls from the Western Regions will keep you company. You can't be shy tonight..."

As he said this, he raised an eyebrow, as if to signal Lu Yao to go ahead and have some fun.

After bowing and thanking him, Lu Yao turned and walked towards the other side of the elegant pavilion.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to glance at Zhang Xuyang and Cui Huai.

These two disciples of the Wanhua Sword Sect must be quite formidable to have made a name for themselves in the martial arts world. I guess I'll have to be more careful from now on.

A young woman led Lu Yao to the elegant pavilion, where they heard the lecherous voice of Old Man Ge inside.

Open the door and go inside.

Lu Yao wished she could find a basin of clean water to wash her eyes.

That damn old man Ge was actually hugging and kissing the madam of Yiqing Tower, Wang Mama, and the two of them were practically going to bed together.

No way, you can actually eat this kind of old scallion?

You're really hungry!

Upon being seen, Wang's mother blushed and hurriedly got up, leaving Old Ge's embrace and quickly leaving the elegant room.

"Ahem, why didn't you knock?"

Old Ge glanced awkwardly at Lu Yao, then stood up and said, "That really scared me to death! You brat, don't you dare ruin someone's plans again!"
