Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 1012: Chapter 1015: Zhu Zhengkun’s Moment of Life and Death

”When I was examining your condition, I discovered that the drug composition in your body was incorrect. Those components should be for heart disease patients, but the dosage didn’t match; it seemed they had been ground into powder and then repressed into pills, completely different from the dosage of the medicines you were taking.”

Jiang Chen spoke indifferently:

”You must understand, ’all drugs have their poison,’ and once the dosage is incorrect, even the same drug components can be lethal!”

”Impressive! Mr. Jiang, you have my utmost admiration and respect!”

Ha Ruisi looked at Jiang Chen with eyes full of worship: ”The traditional medicine of the Flame Dragon Kingdom is truly miraculous! If they hadn’t just told me about Tom Sen and his mother quietly discussing the change in the components and dosage of the medicine they gave to John, I would have had no idea it was their doing!”

”What? It really was you two!? Why would you do such a thing?” Mai Lisha exclaimed incredulously as she stared at Tom Sen and his mother.

”Impossible! How could they have heard? It’s impossible!” Tom Sen’s face instantly became desperate, shaking his head in disbelief.

”Why? Why would you do this?” Mai Lisha yelled, struggling to accept what she’d heard.

”Why? You ask why? Why do you get to marry a Family Head, while I could only marry a driver? I knew Ha Ruisi before you did! Why is your son born to be the heir to the Family Head, while my son is destined to be a mere servant? Why?” Ke Lisi’s face twisted vindictively as she spoke.

Mai Lisha went pale instantly, her face full of disbelief, unable to believe that these words were coming from her own sister.

John’s face whitened further, glanced at Tom Sen and his mother, and said with a bitter smile, ”Ya Sha said it was Cousin Tom Sen’s doing, and I didn’t believe it. I never would have imagined...”

Pi Te looked at Tom Sen and his mother briefly, then turned his attention back to Jiang Chen, his eyes shining: ”Mr. Jiang, is traditional medicine really this miraculous? Can it actually discern the exact amounts of drug components?”

”Actually, it operates under the same principle as your modern medical examinations—it’s all about looking at the micro-particles in their bodies. Your exams focus on the drug components, and slight discrepancies in dosage might be hard to detect, but with Inner Qi, one can thoroughly examine a person’s body. Plus, with my medical knowledge, it’s quite simple to detect that the drug composition and dosage in John’s body are incorrect!” Jiang Chen explained softly.

”Amazing! Absolutely amazing! I want to learn! I want to learn traditional medicine, I want to become a Knight! No, I want to become a Martial Artist, a Flame Dragon Warrior!” Pi Te spoke excitedly, his eyes gleaming brightly.

Jiang Chen glanced at Pi Te, hesitated for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: ”Pi Te, considering your age, it might be a bit late to start training as a Martial Artist. However, if you persist and study hard, you could still achieve the ability to channel Inner Qi through needles. Once you can do that, I’ll teach you a set of acupuncture techniques!”

”Really? Really? Can I do it too?” Pi Te’s eyes lit up again: ”Even at my age, I can learn to channel Inner Qi through needles?”

Jiang Chen was taken aback for a moment, then surprisedly said: ”You know that your age could be a barrier to training?”

”I... I haven’t seen many Knights, at least none leaping off buildings. The Knights I’ve seen started training from a young age, so...” Pi Te’s face turned red with embarrassment.

”Haha!” Jiang Chen chuckled lightly and patted Pi Te’s shoulder: ”With perseverance, even an iron pestle can be ground to a needle. As long as you’re willing to put in the effort, reaching the level where you can channel Inner Qi through needles is certainly possible!”

”I will put in the effort! I absolutely will! To channel Inner Qi through needles, I must achieve it!” Pi Te clenched his fist tightly and swung it firmly.

”Mr. Jiang, I really can’t thank you enough!”

”Yes, Mr. Jiang, we are so grateful to you! Without you, then...”

Mr. and Mrs. Ha Ruisi waited until Jiang Chen finished talking with Pi Te before expressing their gratitude to him.

Jiang Chen smiled faintly, glanced at Tom Sen and his mother, and his expression turned cold as he said indifferently: ”Mr. Ha Ruisi, regardless of your relation to them, these two who have insulted my Flame Dragon must not have a good end!”

”Rest assured, Mr. Jiang. If they dared to harm John, I’ll take very good care of them. They’ll be dead within a week, or else consider it my loss!” Ha Ruisi said with a dark nod.

Jiang Chen was slightly startled, then nodded with satisfaction.

Within a week, let their death be considered a loss, which means, within a week, we must make them wish they were dead!

Jiang Chen also approved of this course of action. After all, what Tom Sen and the other had insulted was not only him personally but the entirety of the Flame Dragon. No punishment could be too cruel!

”No, Uncle, please, no! We were wrong! We were wrong!”

”Ha Ruisi, you can’t do this to us, Mai Lisha, please make Ha Ruisi let us go. I am your own sister, Tom Sen is your own nephew!”

Tom Sen and the other cried out with ashen faces.

”Ke Lisi, you shouldn’t have, you should not have tried to harm my child. You’re a mother too, you should understand, for my child, I can give up everything!” Mai Lisha spoke with a cold expression on her face.

Ke Lisi’s entire body shuddered, her eyes revealing a trace of despair. She was a mother as well and of course understood the implications of Mai Lisha’s words.

Jiang Chen sneered coldly. This is what comes of insatiable greed. If Tom Sen and his mother had not tried to take the entire Will Family fortune into their own hands and had continued to support John, they could have lived a wealthy life!

Choosing to disregard any further troubles of the Will Family, Jiang Chen greeted Pi Te and took his leave.

That night, for Jiang Chen, was a sleepless one. Ye Yuwan transformed into a crazed queen, seemingly intent on draining Jiang Chen of every ounce of his energy. The two of them went at it until the early hours of the next morning before finally falling into a deep sleep.

...

Financial Street in Ross City, Financial Building A.

The whole A block was purchased by Wanguo Bank, and here lies the headquarters of Wanguo Bank!

During the annual meeting in the headquarters’ large conference room, Wanguo Bank’s annual meeting was drawing to a close, with all major regional positions already settled. It was now down to the competition for the person in charge of the Yasna Continent region.

The Yasna Continent region, because of the existence of the Flame Dragon Kingdom, was seen by the upper echelons of Wanguo Bank as a place of paramount importance.

While the Northern Confederation is the world’s largest economic nation, the headquarters of Wanguo Bank are located in the Northern Confederation and are thus directly managed by headquarters. However, the Flame Dragon Kingdom is a populous and economically powerful country, as well as being the most stable nation in the world, a no-go zone for martial sects.

Therefore, this region receives the highest attention!

Most positions for the Yasna Continent region have already been determined. Still, five positions remain to be filled, including the Asina Continent Regional Chief Councilor, two Deputy Chief Councilors for the Asina Continent, one of whom would also serve as the Flame Dragon Country Regional Councilor, and two Flame Dragon Country Regional Deputy Councilors.

At this moment, the current officials were recounting their achievements of the year and the allies they had attracted.

Below, Zhu Zhengkun was quietly listening, with a pallid face and heavy thoughts.

Today might be the day that decides his fate.

If his support does not arrive, he will be utterly defeated.

But will his support truly come?

PS: May Day must be happy, so, the one who made a mess of things yesterday, decided to release two extra Chapters today.

Then, going forward, at least two Chapters will be added every day!

Let everyone read more, love you guys, Little Dance...
