Chapter 727: Chapter 241: Different Treatnt Chapter 727: Chapter 241: Different Treatnt Xin Qianqiu was like a frost-bitten eggplant.
“Is this really worth being so depressed about?”
Beigong Wang said, “Can’t you just go ho and make preparations? Among those of us with this level of cultivation and status, the number who have sustained fundantal injuries is not that great.”
“You don’t understand.”
Xin Qianqiu looked at Beigong Wang, a slight feeling of shared misery in his eyes.
“Wait till you go in and find out.”
Dong Tiesong, hugging his knees, said indifferently, “The Xin clan has offended the divine doctor. Although they are not refused treatnt, the cost is definitely higher than normal. If the Xin clan wants to heal, all costs start at four tis the norm, but only the regular amount is recorded in the list.”
Everyone widened their eyes: “There’s such a clause? This…tsk tsk.”
“Who would have thought… the Xin clan… is quite bold!”
“Tsk tsk…”
Only Beigong Wang didn’t join in the tsking, his face turning a deathly grey, a colour even worse than that of a dead person.
If this is the state of the Xin clan, wouldn’t his own clan face even… worse targeting, even more severity?
“What kind of grudge is it, anyway?” Jiang Changhai was curious.
“I don’t know.”
Dong Tiesong set his face in sympathy: “According to Yan Yan… so juniors from the Xin clan massacred an entire family of his friend, even attempting to kill relatives, friends, martial arts brothers… in a thorough attempt to sweep up all accounts… ”
“Such a thing happened!?”
“The problem is, these two old guys don’t even know what the inside story of this feud is, and they can’t figure out when it happened or who did it.”
“…”
“The coolest part is, the Xin clan killed everyone else, but the divine doctor’s friend is still alive and currently on the run. As long as the parties involved are still alive, the conflict is naturally unresolved…”
“…”
Everyone was silent for a long while.
“It is undeniable that Xin Qianqiu’s na is not on the Heavenly Judgnt’s hit list, guaranteeing his chance for treatnt. But the problem lies in the fact that…”
“When and how this grudge was ford, and who is the culprit, there is absolutely no clue.”
“The lack of clues proves the issue, it is clear that the managent of the Xin clan has been chaotic over the years, so many outrageous events happened, too many to keep track of.”
Dong Tiesong sneered, “Xin Qianqiu is still lucky not to be on the list. As long as he can accumulate four tis the resources, he still has a chance for treatnt. But what about the other Cloud Top Martial Artists of the Xin clan with fundantal injuries, there are about fourteen or fifteen. Out of these, nine are listed, there is no room for negotiation, they don’t even need to co…”
“Who caused the divine doctor to take offence in the first place? Who is this persecuted friend of his? Where are the roots of this problem? He didn’t have any idea at all, and didn’t even know how to resolve the issue.”
Jiang Changhai blurted out: “Why don’t you ask him!”
He woke up instantly after finishing his sentence.
Ask the divine doctor? How could the divine doctor tell him? Because his friend is still alive, right?
If he told them, wouldn’t the untreatable mbers of the Xin clan retaliate?
Wouldn’t that be causing trouble for his friend?
The conflicts between them are ongoing and old, newly added to the list, revealing the target, how can it turn out well?
Xin Qianqiu was filled with confusion and depression, he didn’t even know where the problem was, which was worse than Beigong Wang’s situation!
At least Beigong Wang knew the cause and handled the aftermath himself.
But what about him? He was utterly clueless.
“Just which little bastard caused such a major problem?”
Xin Qianli was gnashing his teeth in anger, furious, but unable to vent his anger!
“Really can’t bla the divine doctor, in our Four Boundless Clans, there are indeed not a few on the list of Heavenly Judgnt. It’s the family’s managent that’s at fault, who else could be blad?”
Beigong Wang sighed and said, “To tell you the truth, regardless of whether it’s four tis or eight tis, it’s a great favor that they are willing to help at all!”
“If everyone behaved properly as Elder Tiesong had, how could sothing like this have happened?”
“Isn’t your Beigong clan the sa?”
Xin Qianqiu asked sullenly: “Just now we were discussing the scandal of your clan, how can you have the face to criticize ours now? I’ll just keep my eyes open to see what kind of good end Beigong Wang ends up with, how much he’ll have to spend, and whether he will be given a chance to seek treatnt!”
Beigong Wang simply said, “The Beigong clan has always had family rules, if anyone is listed on the Heavenly Judge’s hit list, the family will take care of it, either by purging the gates or redeeming the sins. There is no denying that I have been sowhat lax in recent tis, my responsibility is undeniable too. But the ti of such laxity has been only less than a hundred years. Once I return, I will suggest to the clan to reestablish the rules and not permit those who harm the group to exist!”
“Even if the blood ties are closest, if they do wrong, they must be dealt with!”
“Otherwise, if we let this continue, our endless clans of the four directions will eventually beco completely rotten. Not only will we be replaced, but our nas will also be sared forever. There’s no room for chance.”
Beigong Wang let out a painful sigh, “It’s like a poisonous sore on the body. If it is not cut away early, it will inevitably deteriorate with ti. The process of removing the sore may be painful, but it is the only way to survive.”
“Regardless of whether I can get the treatnt this ti, this is sothing that must be done.”
Xin Qianqiu took a deep breath, his gaze revealing bewildernt.
He agreed with Beigong Wang’s approach, but his position in the Xin Family was not comparable to Beigong Wang’s in the Beigong Family.
Though this was only one aspect, if he truly wanted to push for family reform, it might not be impossible to implent.
But the most significant problem now is… the current head of the Xin Family, the forr head, and many ancestral figures, are all on the Heavenly Judge’s kill list!
What can be done?
If he caused the death of his family head and nurous elders, there would be no need for the Xin Family to decline gradually, they would be annihilated entirely!
In this situation, there is truly no conceivable solution!
Regardless of the risks ahead, Beigong Wang, without any hesitation, stepped forward.
Although he is fully aware that he might face similar treatnt as Xin Qianqiu, or even harsher, and could be rejected, he was determined to go in because this was the last lifeline.
But, once he entered, what he encountered was beyond his expectations.
Dong Xiaoyan was sitting there, smiling faintly, “Elder Beigong, we et again.”
“Young master, I… am truly mortified.”
Beigong Wang exhaled and asked, “I wonder… am I eligible to register?”
“Register? Of course!”
Dong Xiaoyan widened her eyes in surprise, “Elder Beigong is not on the kill list, so why wouldn’t you be allowed to register? Why would you ask such an unusual question?”
Beigong Wang was stunned, “Unaware that the little princess and the Cat Emperor, alongside the Divine Physician…”
“Oh, you’re talking about that incident in the snow?”
Dong Xiaoyan spoke lightly, “That incident has passed. You handled it appropriately. But there’s sothing I should clarify – the Beigong Family has maintained its moral integrity for thousands of years, remaining steadfast in its original intent, a quality I admire. However, in recent years, the family’s behavior has beco increasingly chaotic. Given this situation, if Elder Beigong wishes to register, the fee will be double the usual rate.”
“Just… just double?”
Beigong Wang looked stunned.
Five mbers of his family were still barely alive, struggling painfully in their beds.
With such a serious offense, it was just double the fee?
Dong Xiaoyan explained, “Not only do I think so, but the Divine Physician has already made his opinion clear. He said… ‘The Beigong Family, known for its strict discipline over the past million years, has rarely seen its mbers listed on the Heavenly Judgnt since its inception. Even if occasionally a mber was listed due to certain circumstances, they have always cleaned their reputation with personal exploits. As a family that has persisted for a million years in this manner, it’s comndable and the result of the unwavering efforts of the Beigong ancestors.’
“‘No family is without a rotten apple, no horse without a stain. Although there has been so decay in recent years, the Beigong Family can still be saved!’
“‘Hence, a small punishnt as a big warning, double the consultation fee is enough. A small warning – if the Beigong Family can restore its family traditions and resu the noble sentint of an everlasting family, it would be a fortunate event for the continent, for all mankind!’
Dong Xiaoyan smiled and continued, “The above are all the Divine Physician’s original words.”
Beigong Wang, a man of age, had tears suddenly welling up in his eyes, uncontrollable.
The one who spoke these words was the Divine Physician; the weight of these words was undoubtedly heavy!
Especially acknowledging that the unyielding persistence of countless soldiers of the Beigong family over the years was right and sothing all should respect and follow!
The affirmation was so valuable that it was beyond comparison!
The many years of perseverance of the Beigong family had ultimately paid off!
“Thank you, Divine Physician!”
Beigong Wang’s thoughts were as turbulent as a tide, the complex emotions almost too much to bear.
But when he spoke, it all boiled down to these four words.
Dong Xiaoyan listened seriously, replied with a beaming face, “Elder, there’s no need for formality. Let’s proceed with the registration. I will check the wares you brought; after all, it’s only double the consultation fee, which is about the cost of an additional person. As for any other donations, you can decide for yourself and there’s no need to go overboard.”
Beigong Wang was filled with emotion, “So many people from the Beigong family have been listed in recent years, even if it hasn’t led to our downfall, I still cannot escape my responsibility. Why keep all these things? It would be better to give them all to the Divine Physician, to create more opportunities for the people of this world. That could be a way for those listed from our family to slightly atone for their sins, to make so ands.”
“Please convey to the Divine Physician that once I return to the family, I will certainly push for a return to our family teachings and initiate a complete overhaul of the younger generation in the Beigong Family! Regardless of the cost, I will root out those who harm the collective!”
“No matter who it is, they will not be spared! Whoever opposes this, may they be struck down by Heaven! With this oath, may the Great Dao bear witness and Heaven and Earth vouch for it!”
With a loud rumble, thunder echoed across the snow-filled sky.
The sound of the Dao’s thunder rumbled, bearing witness to this venerable cultivator’s vow.
