Luo Kun, Hua Wanru

"Senior, I'm begging you. Please help my father!" Yang Mengli cried agitatedly, while Yang Chen lowered his head and clenched his fists in anger.

Yun Lintian smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry. I have a method to detoxify it. However, I need several medicinal ingredients. I will give you a list." He then wrote something on another piece of paper.

Both Yang siblings' faces flushed with excitement upon hearing this. They didn't know what to say anymore. Yun Lintian in front of them was simply a reincarnation of a saintly doctor. It seemed that he could handle any ailment in this world.

When Yun Lintian handed the list to Yang Mengli, the latter quickly skimmed through it and replied excitedly, "We are lucky! Our Yang treasury has all of them!"

"Really, sister!?" Yang Chen grabbed Yang Mengli's hand with elation.

"Mhm!" Yang Mengli nodded firmly.

"Well, that's good. Tomorrow, you can bring all the ingredients to me. I'll prepare a pill for you... Also, don't forget about the Heavenly Yin Iron." Yun Lintian said.

"Rest assured, Senior. I will send them to you." Yang Mengli answered with a serious expression.

Yun Lintian nodded and said, "You should be cautious during this time. When you return, you can take this pill." Yun Lintian handed Yang Mengli a jade bottle and added, "This will help you maintain the appearance of still being poisoned. Your enemy won't be able to detect it. As for Young Master Yang, it would be best if you never stepped out of your room until you could regain your former profound strength. My final advice is that neither of you should trust anyone in your clan."

Yang Mengli took a deep breath and replied, "Understood, Senior." She was not a fool. To poison her and her father without leaving any evidence. Undoubtedly, the culprit must be someone within the clan. She had to identify the culprit first before she could reveal anything.

"Alright, you should go back." Yun Lintian waved his hand. He was exhausted and in need of rest.

"We will take our leave now. Rest well, Senior." The Yang siblings stood up and gave Yun Lintian a deep bow before they left.

When the siblings left, Yun Meilan's figure appeared in the room. She stared at Yun Lintian and spoke gently, "Are you okay?"

Yun Lintian weakly smiled in reply before he fell out of the chair and fainted directly. Yun Meilan quickly caught him and brought him to the bed. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with Yun Lintian, she let out a sigh of relief and muttered, "What kind of monster are you?"

***

On the following morning, Yun Lintian slowly opened his eyes. He rubbed his forehead and tried to recall what had happened last night. The last thing he remembered was Yun Meilan asking him something, and his consciousness immediately blacked out afterwards.

"How are you?" Yun Meilan's voice rang out from the side. She was sitting in the chair, leisurely enjoying a cup of tea.

Yun Lintian got up and asked, "Aunt Meilan, how long did I sleep?"

"Twelve hours. It's noon now." Yun Meilan answered.

Yun Lintian stretched his body lazily and walked over to the table, where he poured himself a cup of tea. He could still feel a wave of fatigue washing over his body.

"What are you going to do next?" Yun Meilan handed him a bucket of warm water and asked.

Yun Lintian happily received the bucket and washed his face before he replied, "Set up a stall again. We have to act as if nothing happened. If my guess is correct, there should have been someone staring at me all this time. It should be the conspirator behind Yang clan's incident."

Yun Meilan nodded and said, "You are right. I found at least two of them. One came from Yang clan and another is Luo clan's lackey."

Yun Lintian laughed slightly, "This Luo clan is probably getting nervous." Yun Lintian then stood up and said, "Aunt Meilan, I'm going to find something to eat now."

***

After finishing his meal, Yun Lintian headed to set up the stall in the same location as before. When he arrived, he discovered there were many people gathered around his stall. Each one of them had an eager expression on their face. It seemed that his reputation had already spread throughout the city.

Yun Lintian sat on the chair and beckoned the crowd to line up. He then started to treat them one by one.

Two hours later, a commotion suddenly occurred among the onlookers because of the arrival of a group of people. Leading was a handsome young man clad in luxury white robes embroidered with a dragon pattern. His eyes were sharp, brimming with confidence.

Following him was a beautiful young girl wearing green clothes. Her long hair was neatly tied back, revealing her snow-white neck. She had an oval-shaped face, sparkling eyes, delicate eyebrows, and rosy lips. Every movement of her radiating a noble and delicate charm.

Behind them, there were three masculine men dressing in guard uniforms with a 'Luo' badge on their chests, showing the identities of the two in the front were not normal.

The crowd voluntarily paved a way for them as they recognized this group's identity. The three guards quickly formed into a formation, blocking people from approaching their master.

The young man saw Yun Lintian didn't pay attention to him, he took a step forward and introduced himself, "Yesterday I heard there was a miraculous doctor appeared here in our capital city. Today, I've seen you by myself. Young Doctor is really extraordinary as the rumors said. My name is Luo Kun, may I know your name?" His voice was loud, full of arrogance.

Yun Lintian retrieved the silver needles from the patient in front of him and said, "You are fine now. Go back and take a good rest."

The patient hurriedly bowed his head and swiftly slipped away. Luo Kun frowned slightly upon being ignored by Yun Lintian. A moment later, he suddenly smiled and said, "Sure enough. I heard that this young doctor didn't show any respect to anyone. Looks like it's true. You certainly have quite the character. Truly admirable!"

Yun Lintian took a sip of tea and finally glanced at Luo Kun with a smile. He said, "I don't know what brings Young Master Luo here? From my observation, you don't seem to have any ailments."

Just as Luo Kun was about to reply, Yun Lintian added, "However, the young lady behind you, there is a certain poison in your body. May I know if you want me to help you get rid of it?" His words caused the young girl to look at him with surprise. A ray of hope flashed across her eyes shortly before it dimmed down.

Luo Kun's face abruptly changed when he heard this. He glanced at the young girl behind him and then turned to face Yun Lintian with a serious expression. His eyes narrowed. "You deserve to be called a genius doctor. However, the so-called genius in my opinion is nothing. Without the strength to protect themselves, they are no better than an ordinary mortal. I think you should pay more attention to your safety from now on. After all, I don't want to see such a young talented doctor become a corpse in the following day."

Perhaps the crowds were already accustomed to Luo Kun's arrogance; they weren't surprised at all when they heard him blatantly threatening Yun Lintian like this.

Damn! The classic young master has finally appeared! I thought this Luo Kun guy would be different from the typical young master. It turned out that he was a brainless kid in the end. Everything he did was exactly according to the script. Dared to threaten me? Hehe, let's see how I am going to play with you. Yun Lintian snickered inwardly.

An amused smile appeared on Yun Lintian's lips as he responded, "Thank you for reminding me, Young Master Luo. I presumed that the young lady must be Young Miss Hua Wanru. Am I correct?" The young girl glanced at Luo Kun for a moment before giving a confirming nod in reply. Yun Lintian further stated, "Detoxifying the poison in your body is actually quite simple. You can boil five grams of Three Leaves Lotus, which is thirty years old, along with ten grams of Blood Ginseng, three grams of Blue Spirit Grass, and a pinch of Essence Profound Beast's bone powder. One bowl of this, the poison in your body will be gone."

Yun Lintian was wondered in his heart… Why there are so many poisons here? Don't tell me, they don't have any other methods to harm each other? Maybe this Luo clan is proficient in poison besides spear art? Numerous questions appeared in his mind.

Hua Wanru looked at Yun Lintian with an incredible expression. She quickly recited Yun Lintian's words in her mind without caring about the angry Luo Kun on the side.

Luo Kun's face turned red from anger. However, in an instant, his expression returned to normal, causing Yun Lintian to raise his eyebrows in surprise. Luo Kun suddenly laughed and said, "Hehe, Young Doctor is too kind. I heard that yesterday you gave many people several gold coins. I don't know if you've ever followed the news recently?"

Yun Lintian looked at Luo Kun calmly, his expression unchanged, but a sense of foreboding filled his heart.

Luo Kun dragged a smile and continued, "Last night, there were many robberies occurring around the city. All the victims were the people who received your money yesterday... Tsk, tsk, tsk. I wonder what you were thinking at that time, giving them something that cost them their lives." Luo Kun suddenly patted his forehead and said with a feigned shocked expression, "No way! Don't tell me you already expected this? Pretend to help people, but the reality, you sent them to death. Tsk, I must say, Doctor, you are quite insidious!"

Yun Lintian's brows furrowed upon hearing bad news. In fact, he'd thought of this before, but he also thought that there was no one stupid enough to challenge the city's security team. However, he had underestimated and miscalculated it. He'd overlooked a young master like Luo Kun… Undoubtedly, the death of those people was related to Luo Kun.

Yun Lintian's eyes turned sharp, "Indeed, I have already expected this to happen." His words caused a commotion among the crowd as they looked at him in disbelief.

An evil smile emerged on Luo Kun's lips. He was about to speak, but Yun Lintian suddenly interrupted him, "I thought that the security in this city is good enough to protect them, but I am wrong in the end. I have overlooked the fact that there is indeed someone who could disregard the rules and do whatever he wanted. Even killing someone would be a simple task for him."

The onlookers were not a fool. They had figured out instantly when they hearing this. Many of them instinctively glanced at Luo Kun. The meaning in their eyes was clear, Luo Kun was without a doubt behind all of this. It was no wonder he had come to provoke Yun Lintian today. Thinking about this, everything seemed to make sense.

Luo Kun's face instantly turned unsightly. When he received the information about Yun Lintian yesterday, he had made the decision to bring Yun Lintian to directly serve the Luo clan. However, when he thought of Yun Lintian's extreme kindness and indifference towards people from major clans, he was certain that Yun Lintian would reject him. Therefore, he came up with a plan to kill every patient and use it to subdue Yun Lintian. Now, his plan failed miserably. Yun Lintian did not become a subject of public anger. Instead, he was exposed.

"Shut up!" Luo Kun yelled out. The crowd instantly quieted down.

Luo Kun glared at Yun Lintian with a wicked smile as he said, "It seems you can't be subdued by little means. What about using force? Capture him!" He gave an order to his three bodyguards.

Yun Lintian's eyes narrowed as his profound energy surged, preparing to engage in battle.

"I want to see who dares to make a ruckus here in our Yang's territory!" Just as Yun Lintian was about to shoot, a thunderous female voice roared out from afar.
