Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 1294: Chapter 1297: It’s Okay, I’m Used To It

In the large hall of the attic where Old Master Yue lived.

The three brothers Yue Taizhong, the four brothers Yue Zhenfeng, Yan Hu, and others were all gathered here, with only Jiang Chen, Wu Mingzhong, Yue Wujie, and Dong Tianchen entering Old Master Yue’s room.

”Can Mr. Jiang cure the old master?” Yue Tingheng was still somewhat uncertain.

”What do you mean by that?”

Leng Ming looked at Yue Tingheng with an unfriendly gaze: ”Ever since we arrived at the Yue Family, you’ve been looking left at Mr. Jiang with dissatisfaction and right at Mr. Jiang with criticism. What are you trying to do?”

”Tingheng, believe in Mr. Jiang. He can do it!” Yue Zhenfeng softly interjected.

Yan Hu glanced at Yue Tingheng and said indifferently: ”If you don’t trust us, we can leave. There’s no need to stay here and be questioned by you!”

Ever since they arrived at the Yue Family, Yan Hu and his companions had their dissatisfaction with the Yue Family’s attitude toward Jiang Chen, and now Yue Tingheng’s continued skepticism was more than they could bear!

”Tingheng, shut up!” Yue Taizhong glared at Yue Tingheng and turned to speak to Yan Hu and his companions: ”Mr. Yan Hu, Leng Ming, I apologize. Tingheng is just worried about the old master.”

Leng Ming gave Yue Taizhong a cold look and said no more.

Though the Yue Family is one of the three major hidden families, Leng Ming didn’t fear them!

The living room fell into silence.

Thump, thump, thump!

After a while, the sound of footsteps came from the staircase. Everyone stood up and looked over, and down the staircase, Jiang Chen, Wu Mingzhong, and Dong Tianchen came down.

”Mr. Jiang, how come you guys have come down so quickly?” Yue Taizhong looked at Jiang Chen at the staircase entrance, a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

Yue Zhenting softly asked: ”Is Mr. Jiang unable to do anything?”

”I was saying, if Grandfather Dong and Divine Doctor Wu couldn’t do anything, even though Mr. Jiang is strong, healing injuries has nothing to do with strength!” Yue Tingheng muttered to himself.

Jiang Chen and the others came to the sofa in the living room and took a seat, sweeping a glance over everyone. Dong Tianchen joked: ”What’s the matter? Are you disappointed to see us come down so quickly?”

”This... Mr. Jiang, do you have a way to heal grandfather?” Yue Taizhong tentatively spoke.

Jiang Chen replied softly, ”You’ll know in a little while.”

”Ah?”

Yue Taizhong was somewhat puzzled by what Jiang Chen meant.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

Suddenly, a tremendously powerful aura erupted from the third floor, causing everyone in the Yue Family to change their expressions, and they abruptly stood up from the sofas.

”This, this is Great-Grandfather’s aura!” Yue Zhenfeng exclaimed with joy.

”It’s Great-Grandfather! It’s Great-Grandfather’s aura!”

”Is Great-Grandfather healed?!”

”Grandfather’s injuries are healed? Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to circulate his Inner Qi. It must be healed!”

Members of the Yue Family called out in excitement one after another.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

The aura weakened and then vanished without a trace. The members of the Yue Family took a few steps toward the staircase entrance but stopped without going up, their faces full of anticipation as they looked at the turn of the staircase.

In their perception, there were two auras coming down the staircase.

”Grandfather!”

”Great-Grandfather!”

”Are you really healed?!”

”That’s amazing!”

Two elderly figures emerged around the corner, and the members of the Yue Family erupted into jubilant cheers.

”Haha! I’ve made you all worry!” A voice full of vigor rang out as Yue Wujie and an old man descended the stairs.

Everyone returned to the living room, and Jiang Chen and the others stood up to greet them.

”Father, this is Jiang Chen, Mr Jiang!” Yue Wujie introduced Jiang Chen to the elderly man.

The old man clasped his fists and bowed to Jiang Chen: ”I am Yue Shaoting, thank you, Mr Jiang, for saving my life!”

”Old master, you are too kind!” Jiang Chen quickly reached out to support Yue Shaoting.

The members of the Yue Family realized what happened and looked at Jiang Chen with eyes full of gratitude.

”Was he really cured by Mr Jiang!?”

”In such a short time... That was too quick!?”

”Mr Jiang is truly a Divine Doctor!”

”It’s incredible! We sought help from so many people to no avail, but Mr Jiang did it in such short time...”

”Mr Jiang, thank you!”

Someone started, and the members of the Yue Family clasped their fists and bowed to Jiang Chen one after another.

”Please, everyone, it was just a little effort!” Jiang Chen waved his hand gently and returned the bow.

”Weren’t some people questioning Mr Jiang just now?” Leng Ming glanced at Yue Tingheng and spoke with a hint of sarcasm.

Yue Tingheng’s face turned red, and his figure suddenly shrank.

Thump!

Yue Tingheng directly knelt down in front of Jiang Chen and said with a face full of apology: ”Mr Jiang, I apologize for doubting you.”

”Stand up!” Jiang Chen reached out to help Yue Tingheng up and said with a light chuckle: ”It’s fine, I am used to being doubted.”

”Ah?” Yue Tingheng looked at Jiang Chen in a daze: ”Everyone doubts you?”

Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment and laughed: ”Do you really believe that?”

Pfft!

”Haha!”

”Haha... this kid is so amusing!”

Everyone burst into laughter.

Yue Tingheng, realizing his gaffe, blushed again, gave a naive smile, and rubbed the back of his head.

”Mr Jiang, the banquet is ready, let’s go to the banquet hall!” Yue Taizhong invited with a light smile.

”Alright!” Jiang Chen nodded.

The group headed towards the banquet hall.

On the top floor of the banquet hall, in a private room.

The four brothers, Yue Zhenting, didn’t come with the rest, and the others took their places as hosts and guests.

After three rounds of wine, Jiang Chen thought the small talk was enough and spoke softly: ”Elder Yue, did you have an encounter with the Soul Devour Group?”

”Yes!”

Yue Shaoting’s face darkened, and he nodded slightly: ”A week ago, I visited Zheng City, and on my way back, I encountered an ambush. They announced themselves, demanding that my Yue Family submit to them. I refused, and they attacked and injured me!”

”As a Venerable Realm peak expert, to injure you and plant a Soul Devour seed, the attackers must have included at least three Venerable Realm peak experts, right?” Jiang Chen frowned and spoke gravely.

”Right, there were three Venerable Realm experts from their side, but they are all dead now! The aftermath of the fight was sensed by grandfather, and both he and Grandpa Lan rushed over, saved me, and made sure those attackers stayed permanently in the outskirts of Zheng City!” Yue Shaoting confirmed.

Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief. If there were three Venerable Realm peak members of the Soul Devour Group active nearby, he would have to be cautious; he was a prime target for the Soul Devour Group.

”It looks like the Soul Devour Group is losing patience after their failed action with the Jueluo Clan!” Jiang Chen spoke softly.

Li Tianchong’s expression turned serious: ”The Soul Devour Group targeting the Yue Family so soon, they must need manpower for something. Otherwise, after such a huge loss with the Jueluo Clan, they wouldn’t act so quickly again!”

”It is precisely because of the huge losses of the Jueluo Clan that they are so urgently initiating action again!”

Jiang Chen spoke with a serious expression: ”The grand pill refining competition in Elixir Valley is about to start, isn’t it?”
