Chapter 212: Chapter 212: Have the Men of the Su Family All Died Off, Letting a Wench Like You Come Out to Parade Around?

After a long moment, Qiu Junyan finally snapped out of it. Utterly impressed by Ye Feng, he hurried over, fell to his knees behind him with a THUD, and exclaimed excitedly:

"Bringing the dead back to life, growing flesh on bare bones... You are the Divine Doctor! You are the *true* Divine Doctor! My earlier words were shallow. Please forgive my offense, Divine Doctor!"

Su Dingbang, standing behind them, was dumbfounded. ’Who is Qiu Junyan? He’s ranked seventh among the nation’s most sacred healers! He’s so arrogant he wouldn’t bow his head to anyone, no matter how powerful. And now he’s kneeling to Ye Feng?’

’This... How is this possible?’

But what happened next made him stagger, nearly sending him to the ground.

Without even glancing at the kneeling Qiu Junyan, Ye Feng said coldly, "Move aside. Don’t get in the way of me saving a life."

The hairs on Su Dingbang’s arms stood on end. ’Qiu Junyan already gave you an out! How can you be so clueless? You’re just pushing it further and further!’

’Do you really think Divine Doctor Qiu is someone to be trifled with? If you truly anger him, he could drag you down to the eighteenth level of hell.’

So he looked at Ye Feng and shouted urgently, "Ye Feng, that’s too much! Apologize to Divine Doctor Qiu at once!"

But before the words were even out of his mouth, Qiu Junyan quickly stopped him, crying out anxiously,

"Mr. Su, please, don’t say that! It was I who disturbed the Divine Doctor! I’ll get out of the way right now, right now!"

With that, he quickly retreated to the side, watching Ye Feng’s treatment with rapt attention.

Su Dingbang’s eyes nearly popped out of his head. ’What the hell? Did this guy take the wrong medicine today or something?’

Just then, Ye Feng looked at Su Youning. "Ningning, go get two hundred grams of aconite. Decoct it over a high flame, then bring it here and have Uncle drink it."

Su Youning nodded immediately and turned to leave.

When Qiu Junyan heard this from behind, his face went white with fright.

Aconite is a poison. The pharmacopoeia explicitly states that a single dose should not exceed fifteen grams, yet Ye Feng wanted to use two hundred grams at once, and decoct it over a high flame for consumption! ’This... This is a death sentence!’ He couldn’t hold it in any longer and cried out anxiously to Ye Feng,

"Little Divine Doctor, you mustn’t—"

The words had barely left his mouth when Ye Feng spun around, his icy eyes fixed on him in a deathly stare.

The hairs on Qiu Junyan’s arms stood on end. He quickly stammered, "Divine Doctor, I’m sorry! Please, just pretend I didn’t say a thing!"

A short while later, Su Youning returned with a bowl of medicinal soup and helped Su Qing drink it.

Two minutes later, Ye Feng slapped Su Qing on the back and yelled,

"Spit it out!"

Su Qing’s mouth flew open, and he spewed out a great GUSH of vomit. It was green.

Ye Feng helped Su Qing lie back down, and Su Youning rushed over to wipe his mouth clean.

Ye Feng looked at Su Youning and said, "There. Your uncle will make a full recovery with just a little rest."

From behind, Qiu Junyan was astonished to see that Su Qing, who had been at death’s door just moments ago, looked miraculously better.

Completely in awe, Qiu Junyan staggered before Ye Feng and exclaimed,

"Divine Doctor, you are the true Divine Doctor! I, Qiu Junyan, am utterly humbled. I wish to become your disciple. Please, Master, accept me!"

Su Dingbang’s eyes nearly popped out of his head again. ’Is... is this the same arrogant Qiu Junyan?’

But Ye Feng’s next move nearly knocked him flat on the floor.

Ye Feng looked at him and spoke in a cold voice. "As a doctor, your ethics are more important than your skills. If you’re always so self-righteous, thinking you’re the best in the world, your skills will never improve by a single inch. Do... you understand?"

Despite being berated like a dog by Ye Feng, Qiu Junyan showed no sign of anger. Instead, he looked ashamed and replied,

"Yes, yes, Master is right to scold me. I will take your words to heart!"

At the back, Su Dingbang was completely and utterly stunned.

Ye Feng ignored him and turned to take Su Qing’s hand, massaging it to improve circulation.

Just then, a middle-aged man rushed in. He looked at Su Dingbang and cried out,

"Patriarch, there are people causing trouble at the front gate! They’re openly demanding that you ’get the hell out here’..."

Su Dingbang flew into a rage. "Damn it, do they really think the Su family is a pushover they can just step all over? I’ll show them... I’ll show them."

"Tell me, who is it? Who? Let’s see if they’ve grown a death wish!"

But the man’s next words nearly knocked him flat.

The messenger hastily said, "It’s the Kong family from the Imperial Capital..."

Su Dingbang staggered violently. He barely managed to stay on his feet before looking at the man and shrieking,

"Tell me again, clearly! Who is it?"

The man quickly replied, "The Kong family from the Imperial Capital. The one leading them is Patriarch Kong, Kong Shun..."

WHOOSH!

All of Su Dingbang’s bluster vanished, like a fresh sprout doused in scalding piss. It wilted instantly.

He beat his chest and stomped his feet, crying out, "They’ve come! They’ve really come! We’re finished! The Su family is facing annihilation!"

Beside him, Yao Qing, who had a fiery temper of her own, was already frustrated from worrying about Su Qing’s illness. With a belly full of pent-up anger, hearing that someone was now bullying them at their own front door made her fury explode.

"The hell with the Kong family! Who do they think they are, God Almighty? Do they think the law doesn’t apply to them? I don’t buy it. I’m going out there to see what the hell they want!"

With that, she stormed out, roaring as she went, "All members of the Su family, grab your weapons!"

"Yao Qing, don’t be rash! The Kong family is not to be messed with!" Su Dingbang was so scared his soul nearly left his body. ’She’s going to bring the heavens down on us!’

He shrieked, scrambling frantically after her.

By the time Yao Qing reached the gate, she stopped short. Even for someone as bold as an ox, the sight made her flinch.

The entrance was swarming with people. They were all dressed in black suits with buzz cuts, and in their hands were gleaming machetes that flashed with a cold light. A palpable, icy killing intent surged from them, seeming to pierce the very sky.

At the head of the men in black stood a middle-aged man in a Tang suit. His face was fleshy and cruel, his eyes filled with menace. A scar snaked across his face like a centipede, adding to his savage appearance.

Patriarch of the Kong family from the Imperial Capital, Kong Shun.

Yao Qing couldn’t help but gulp. ’Oh, sweet mother... this is a bit much!’

She swallowed hard, walked up to Kong Shun, and forced a smile.

"Patriarch Kong, to what do we owe the pleasure...?"

Before she could finish, Kong Shun cut her off rudely.

"Have all the men in the Su family died off? They send a bitch like you out to prance around? Get the hell away from me, now, or I’ll cut you down where you stand!"

Yao Qing almost choked on her own breath. ’A bitch? How can he say something so vile!’

Her own anger flared. She looked at Kong Shun and sneered,

"Listen here, Patriarch Kong. You should watch your mouth. Don’t forget you have women in your family, too..."

The moment the words left her mouth, everything changed.
