Not expecting the other party to knock hi Xuan becah, what I meant to say was I can solve your probleotiate with you now that you're unconscious?”
Zhang Xuan's condition for re the Contract Gu fro hi Xuan had fulfilled his end of the deal, but the other party was now requesting for him to treat his wounded body This was an entirely differentXuan couldn't possibly expend his own zhenqi for nothing
Yet, before he could say anything, the other party had already fainted
Notoo disrespectful toXuan hed aardly, ”The old master wishes for you to treat him as soon as possible If Physician Bai has any requests, feel free to speak to me of it I'll do my best to satisfy the Xuan nodded, ”How about this, you're selling this [Soul Nuht? If so, you should have an inventory of it HelpXuan had this, he wouldn't have to resort to knocking anyone out by force again
Since he had learned of this object, it was only natural for him to want more of it Who else would he exploit if not the rich tycoon in front of hi Powder?”
Butler Lu blinked
”Indeed Don't tell er a Xuan frowned At the sa whether he had asked for tooout that much
”No, it's it's that” Butler Lu seeh he was suffering from constipation ”It's that this object is too inexpensive”
The Soul Nu Poas one of the most fundale dose costs only a few hundred gold coins, and ten of it orth mere thousands To think this little amount of money could save the oldto cheaply of the Great Herb King’s life?
”Inexpensive?”
Zhang Xuan was taken aback He i her head with a speechless expression Only then did he laugh aardly, ”That right Do you have any Half-Zongshi+ and Zongshi+ realm cultivation technique manuals in your manor? The tier of the manual doesn't ather more than a thousand of the Xuan's cultivation had already reached Tongxuan realather higher-realdoest cultivators were xuan realshi+ realm manuals in its territory Red Lotus City was the city of a Tier 1 Kingdoht be possible for the other party to gather a sizeable quantity amount of cultivation technique shi+ realm secretexpected Physician Bai Chan to ask for so so peculiar, Butler Lu conte Manor controls the flow of allnations Many cultivators do not possess sufficient money to purchase herbs, so they could only trade in their unique secret manuals”
”Thus, we have accushi+ secretability of our Great Herb King Manor, we should be able to gather shi+ realm cultivation technique manuals If you have no requireather a few hundred books for you However, gathering above a thousand of it would be difficult”
”Alright, I'll take these then!”
Hearing that the other party could gather shi+ realshi+ realreedole city weren't what that the entire Tianxuan Kingdom could co Xuan would be able to reach Half-Zongshi+ or even Zongshi+ realm effortlessly By then, he should at least possess the ability to protect hio on and ements I'll treat the oldXuan instructed Butler Lu before grabbing the Great Herb King's are of Heaven's Path zhenqi into hislooked lifeless and withered was because of the blockage in hisas Zhang Xuan cleared up the blockages, the other party's dense and powerful Zongshi+ zhenqi would naturally rejuvenate his spirit, energy, and soul, thus inducing a coushed through the blocked e left behind by the Contract Gu, as though snowwith the radiant sun, disappeared completely
The dry and loose skin on the Great Herb King regained its elasticity and liveliness In an instant, he seeer
”This”
Mo Yu, as standing by the side, blinked her eyes furiously, unable to believe her sight
She thought that Zhang Xuan's treatment, like any other physicians, would require the complement of medicinal herbs, and would be over the course of nu to recover instantly just by having his wrist grabbed
Is this really so a physician can do?
Why haven't I heard of it?
All of her preconceptions of the world seeht!”
Soon, the Heaven's Path zhenqi circulated a full round around the other party's body, clearing all of the blockages co Xuan stood up and exhaled deeply
It was , who had his trau the softness and elasticity of his skin and the overwhelh the Great Herb King was impressed, he wasn't as surprised as Mo Yu
The physician before hied to cure him of his Poison Gu, a feat which countless physicians and poison masters were incapable of Rather, it would be bizarre if he couldn't do so his wounds
”Physician Bai Chan, you have 's face flushed in agitation as he knelt onto the floor once more
If not for the physician before hiratitude he felt wasn't so money
”It's merely a deal! However, I' would accept a Contract Gu and allow yourself to beXuan waved casually before turning to look at the Great Herb King doubtfully
Mo Yu was baffled as well
The Great Herb King's status and influence were so great that even the Tianwu Kingdoreat person actually chose to take on a Contract Gu This was soh, this is a long story If you knew the person who like that!”
Seeing the doubt in the duo's eyes, the Great Herb King flashed a bitter smile
The other party had saved his life, and he felt that his life belonged to the other party Thus, he didn't think that there was anything inappropriate to say before the other party and didn't intend to hide anything from him
”The person I contracted with is the Hall Master of the Poison Hall!”
”Hall Master of the Poison Hall?”
”Un!” The Great Herb King nodded his head With a co ure whom no one in the Red Lotus City dares to offend, but the truth is that we're merely the spokespersons for the Poison Hall! I'enerations had established a contract with Poison Hall Masters and becaeneration?”
Zhang Xuan and Mo Yu was stunned However, as they thought further, they realized that it was logical
The Red Lotus City was the only intermediary to the Poison Hall, and it was hard to believe that the Poison Hall didn't establish any poithin the city
Without the support of the Poison Hall, how could the Great Herb King of every generation control the gigantic medicinal herb market and earn massive profits? Similarly, they wouldn't have been able to kill princes and princesses of the various kingdoms without fear either
It was only because of the Poison Hall's support that the Red Lotus City was powerful
Otherwise, how could a declining ancient city be able to stand against powerful countries like Tianwu?
After all, Tianwu Kingdo of several 2-star uidance of a h it would be pushi+ng it to say that everyone was an expert, the average level of cultivation within the city was doof the Poison Hall, how could a do been destroyed
”The only reason why a Contract Gu would act up is that a contractee is dead Could it be that
Upon realizing so
”That's right!” The Great Herb King nodded ”The Hall Master is dead!”
”Butler Lu wasn't lying when he said that an internal conflict has broken out within the Poison Hall, and it is turning away all guests! The Hall Master died abruptly without declaring his successor, and three candidates are currently vying for the top seat, resulting in chaos Even Ito keep away froht not even kno I die”
The Great Herb King s as the Poison Hall exists, they can always raise a new Great Herb King”
Even though he did not want to ad Xuan knew that it was true
With the strength of the Poison Hall, it was
For the prestigious and powerful Great Herb King to be an inconsequential puppet, it would be hard for anyone to believe it to be true if not hearing it frolanced at Zhang Xuan with a grim expression ”Physician Bai Chan, you savedyou to the Poison Hall However There are currently three candidates vying for the seat, and the Poison Hall is filled with uncountable dangers Death is the only thing that awaits any visitor If you have time to spare, you can stay here in my manor for the o after the Hall Master is confirer”
The fight over the position of Hall Master was no different fro for the throne; it would be filled with schemes and assassinations
If outsiders were to enter, it was highly likely that they would be taken as pawns, and they wouldn't even realize how they had died
It wasn't wrong to say that the Poison Hall at present was at its erous
However, once the Hall Master was confirmed, the situation would settle down, and the place would beco!”
Even though Zhang Xuan knew that what the other party said was valid, he couldn't wait that long
The poison aura in his body was suppressed by Heaven's Path zhenqi, but no one could guarantee when it would counterattack
If it was just three to five days, he could still wait However, a year or tas too long for him
”Actually If Physician Bai does have a pressing urgency, there's another way”
Seeing that his benefactor seemed to be in a rush to head to the Poison Hall, the Great Herb King conte, ”The three main disciples of the old Hall Master each possess support frohly equal Under normal circue without a year or two of grinding it out However, there is an exception”
”TellXuan's eyes lit up
The Great Herb King continued, ”Just like the Apothecary Guild and Blacksmith Guild, the Poison Hall has a headquarter and nue is aXuan nodded his head
After reading through books of all kinds, Zhang Xuan knew that the Tianwu Kingdo it formed just a small part of the world
While the Poison Hall of the Red Lotus Range was famous, its reputation was lidom
Much doms
”Based on what I know, the old Hall Master died suddenly, and he didn't appoint a successor beforehand Thus, the elders in the hall have reported this matter to the headquarter! If the headquarter decides to interfere, it will send an envoy to calm the chaos and decide on the new Hall Master If so, the entire process can be resolved quickly!”
The Great Herb King said
”Oh? There's such aXuan's eyes lit up
All branches had to follow arrangements by the headquarter
No matter how chaotic the situation was after the death of the Hall Master, the envoy from the headquarter should be able to resolve the issue swiftly
”In such situations, how long does it usually take for the Poison Hall to send an envoy? Also, how soon will the internal conflict be resolved? Are there any precedents?”
Zhang Xuan could not help but ask
”There are indeed precedents in the history of the Poison Hall, but”
The Great Herb King hesitated for abitterly, ”This time, I can't confire sounds impressive, it is just an unimpressive countryside branch to the headquarter If an envoy is sent over, the conflict should be settled in less than half a month However If the headquarter feels that it is a waste of personnel and decides not to send anyone over, it will take at least one to two years!”
Even though an envoy could settle the issue easily, the Red Lotus Range Poison Hall branch was an uniht think that there was no need to waste any effort on it Thus, it wouldn’t be unordinary if they did not send any personnel
There were similar cases in the past
As such, it was difficult to guess the headquarters’ decision
