Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1308: Chapter 1307 Medicine Sect

”But the problem is, the Medicine Sect is not like the Su Family of Yanbei!” the Drunken Monk sighed.

”Is the strength of the Medicine Sect much stronger than the Su Family of Yanbei?” Su Yang asked, his heart also feeling surprised. The troubles with the Su Family of Yanbei had not been small, yet neither Lü Donglin nor the Drunken Monk had cared much. Why then, did the matter of the Medicine Sect worry the two of them so much?

”The Medicine Sect’s strength is average...” the Drunken Monk shook his head before continuing, ”The key point is, it’s the Medicine Sect!”

”What do you mean?” Su Yang asked, puzzled.

”The strength of the Medicine Sect can basically be considered the weakest among the Ten Great Sects. The Su Family of Yanbei could once crush the Ten Great Sects, and although their strength has declined a lot over the years, it’s still not far behind the Ten Great Sects,” explained the Drunken Monk. ”But the problem is, the Medicine Sect produces all kinds of elixirs. Half of the elixirs needed by the Ten Great Sects, and even by all the Superlunary Sect families in the world, basically come from the Medicine Sect!”

Su Yang took a deep breath, finally understanding the situation. It was not that the Medicine Sect’s strength was formidable, but its relationships were complex. The Superlunary Sect families in the world all needed to ask favors from the Medicine Sect, which resulted in the high status of the Medicine Sect.

Sometimes, you don’t need to have great power; you just need to master a skill that no one else can. Then, even those with great strength must be at your beck and call!

No wonder Wang Ding and his people were so arrogant and haughty when they mentioned their sect; this was the reason.

”Moreover, I’ve also heard of this second Elder of the Medicine Sect,” the Drunken Monk continued, ”This person is extremely protective of his own people and particularly domineering. In the entire Medicine Sect, he is someone no one dares to provoke. Whether it’s right or wrong, he will always side with his disciples. Therefore, your situation this time, I’m afraid, is a bit troublesome!”

Su Yang’s brows furrowed; he hadn’t expected this would turn into such a big deal.

However, shocked as he was, Su Yang did not regret his actions. Jeang Zier had almost been insulted by those few people. If Su Yang let those people off because he feared their strength, then even if he could live in peace with the Medicine Sect, what would be the point?

If one cannot even protect their loved ones, then continuing to live would just be dragging out a miserable existence!

”Thieving Monk, regarding this matter, I think there’s no discussion about whether it could have been done differently,” Lü Donglin finally spoke up with a heavy voice. ”Maybe you don’t know, that Wang Ding mentioned by Brother Su, I’ve met him.”

”Oh?” The Drunken Monk looked at Lü Donglin in surprise, ”You know about this person?”

”More than just know!” Lü Donglin said coldly, ”When I had to flee Capital City in a sorry state and returned to the Northern Three Provinces, I encountered this Wang Ding on the road. He was bullying a good family’s daughter at the time. I couldn’t stand it, so I intervened. Wang Ding repeatedly promised never to offend again and begged me to spare him. Out of concern for the strength of the Medicine Sect, I let him go. I never expected that he would then bring people from the Medicine Sect to chase after me, alongside those from Capital City. And the people from the Medicine Sect, especially adept at tracking, found me several times. If it weren’t for Xue Nu’s timely help, I would have been dead at their hands!”

”There was such a thing?” the Drunken Monk was astonished.

”That’s why I say, Brother Su had no choice!” Lü Donglin said, ”It’s not that by sparing Wang Ding and his people, they would be grateful. On the contrary, as long as they live, they’ll continue to seek vengeance endlessly. Even after I had returned to the Northern Three Provinces, Wang Ding and his crew were still lurking there, looking for an opportunity to kill me. They even incited the people from the Medicine Sect to paint me as an enemy who had insulted the Medicine Sect. Many from the Medicine Sect forced my uncle to hand me over. Eventually, my uncle took action and killed three experts from the Medicine Sect, which scared them off. Otherwise, I reckon I wouldn’t know what my fate would be now!”

The Drunken Monk frowned, ”Based on what you’ve said, these people from the Medicine Sect are really going too far!”

”It’s more than just going too far!” Lü Donglin spoke coldly, ”The Medicine Sect’s status is too high among the Ten Great Sects, which leads to its members being condescending and arrogant, not considering anyone else as equals. Every time the Medicine Sect’s people go out, they do many shocking deeds. You’ve always hidden in Buddha Palace and haven’t come out, naturally, you wouldn’t know the things they do. Let me tell you, even if Brother Su spares them this time, he will still incur a deadly feud with the Medicine Sect!”

After a moment of silence, the Drunken Monk spoke gravely, ”I never thought that the Medicine Sect would turn out to be like this!”

”It is a helpless situation!” Lü Donglin shook his head, ”The Medicine Sect controls the source of half of the elixirs needed by the Ten Great Sects, as well as those by the Superlunary Sect families, all of which have to treat the Medicine Sect with respect. This is a fundamental base, and others have no choice!”

The Drunken Monk nodded slowly, what Lü Donglin said was absolutely right. With such foundational control, the Medicine Sect indeed had the right to act superior.

”The most troublesome thing now is the matter between Master Su and the Medicine Sect!” the Drunken Monk sighed, ”Even though the Medicine Sect is in the wrong, Brother Su had no choice. But this matter is indeed very troublesome!”

”There will be a way out when we get to the mountain!” Lü Donglin said with determination, ”Brother Su, I fully support you in this matter!”

Su Yang glanced at Lü Donglin and smiled, ”Brother Lü’s kind intentions, I take them to heart. But this is a matter between me and the Medicine Sect, let me resolve it myself.”

Although Lü Donglin had some conflicts with the Medicine Sect, Su Yang could tell that even the Beigong War God had hesitated to act too drastically against the Medicine Sect back in the Northern Three Provinces. In fact, even the Beigong War God didn’t wish to provoke the Medicine Sect.

So, despite the trouble, Su Yang was unwilling to involve others.

”Our relationship doesn’t need such words!” Lü Donglin smiled, ”No matter what the Medicine Sect deserves, nothing in this world escapes the principle of justice. I’ve long been displeased with those bastards. If they dare come looking for trouble, I won’t be polite with them. Thieving Monk, how about you?”

The Drunken Monk, with a mournful face, put down his wine cup, ”Since you’ve said that, I can’t show any cowardice. After all, I’ve drunk so much of Master Su’s wine, it’s time to repay the favor.”

”Hahaha...” Lü Donglin laughed heartily, slapping the Drunken Monk’s shoulder forcefully, ”You rascal, you’re so straightforward. You’re much better than your two disciples. That settles it, Su Yang, if people from the Medicine Sect come looking for you, contact me immediately. Humph, as for Wang Ding, I think he has forgotten how he fled the Northern Three Provinces back then!”
