Chapter 576: 576 Who does Ye Wanlan know? [2 more chapters] Chapter 576: 576 Who does Ye Wanlan know? [2 more chapters] “[Deadly Poison Master]: Ready! Standing by! What do you need, Miss Ye?”
“[YN]: I need so dicinal ingredients. Is it possible to gather them all within one day and deliver them to Yunjing?”
Ye Wanlan sent the list of dicinal ingredients and their quantities.
“[Deadly Poison Master]: Woah, that’s quite a lot, but no problem. I’ll make it to Yunjing within a day for sure!”
“[Ghostbuster Bro]: Who’s calling you? Are you on vacation or sothing?”
“[Deadly Poison Master]: Unlike you corporate slaves, I’m free. I take a holiday whenever I feel like it.”
“[Cultured Person]: Where’s the group admin? Kick out this antisocial guy.”
“[Crazy Scientist]: Strongly second that!”
“[World’s Richest]: How much do the dicinal ingredients Miss Ye wants? I’ll pay double for her.”
“[Deadly Poison Master]: Rich Sister sure is generous! I’ll go get the dicine ready right away!”
“I’ve found a supplier,” Ye Wanlan said, lifting her head from her phone, “who can deliver the ingredients we’re missing within a day.”
Zhu Yu’s eyes widened: “Which supplier has so many rare dicinal ingredients?”
“People from Global Center,” Ye Wanlan replied with a faint smile. “He has a fondness for poison, so he always has a good stock of dicinal ingredients.”
“Poison?” Hearing this description made Zhu Yu’s heart skip a beat.
Could it be… the one he’s thinking of?
No… Impossible!
That person has always been elusive, like a Divine Dragon without a trace. There were people who had encountered him in the deep mountains of a no man’s land, but after parting ways, they forgot his appearance.
“But won’t it cost a lot to prepare so many rare dicinal ingredients so quickly?” Su Xueqing worried, “Zhu Yu, I still have so money on ; I’ll give it all to you.”
“No way, you just got back recently. How could I take your money?” Zhu Yu sternly refused, “Worst cos to worst, I’ll sell my blood!”
Su Xueqing’s pupils contracted: “Are you trying to kill yourself? Your blood is so precious. If soone with bad intentions discovers its effects, be careful, or you might be taken away to be made into a dicine man!”
“I… I was just saying.” Zhu Yu scratched his head, “I’m not that foolish. I know what’s more important.”
“No need,” Ye Wanlan said. “A wealthy patron has already settled the bill for us.”
“…”
Silence fell all around.
After a mont, Zhu Yu looked at her, dumbstruck: “Miss Ye… who do you even know?”
Mr. Zhu was out traveling; now, the dicine Garden was left for Zhu Yu to manage alone.
This morning, Su Ningxiang had sent soone with a list of required dicinal ingredients, but Zhu Yu could not provide so of them in the requested quantities quickly enough.
It was apparent that Su Ningxiang’s faction was taking advantage of Mr. Zhu’s absence, deliberately putting forward a prescription intended to force the Zhu Family into breaking their agreent.
The Zhu Family’s dicine Garden was actually a legacy passed down from Taiyi Palace.
Back then, when Water Palace Master Shui Yunqing had moved so of the Taiyi dical Practitioners to a safe place, so established the Su Family, while others ford the Zhu Family.
The Su and Zhu families agreed that the Zhu Family would supply the Su Family with dicinal ingredients, and the Su Family would carry on the Taiyi Acupuncture Technique.
This agreent was witnessed by Heaven and Earth; neither party was to break it. Any breach would incur divine punishnt.
If the Zhu Family failed to supply the dicinal ingredients, or the Su Family breached the ancestral teachings of Taiyi Palace, it would be considered betrayal.
This was also why Su Ningxiang did not prioritize profits above all else.
But in reality, when Water Palace Master Shui Yunqing protected these disciples, there was no intention of having them split into separate families.
Otherwise, by the standards of the other Four Great Families, since they were inheriting the Taiyi dical Skills, they should have taken “Shui” as their family na.
Ye Wanlan was confident in deducing that after Water Palace Master Shui Yunqing’s death, one of the remaining Taiyi Disciples surnad Su wanted to take the Taiyi Palace legacy for himself and established the Su Family with his own surna.
She shared this thought with Zhu Yu and Su Xueqing.
“If there really is such a person with the surna Su, he is truly despicable!” Zhu Yu fud, “This is clearly stealing the inheritance of the Water Palace Master!”
Su Xueqing furrowed her brows, “Indeed, I don’t actually know what the original ancestor of the Su Family was called, nor has anyone ever ntioned it.”
Xie Linyuan and Huo Jingyu exchanged a glance, then slowly said, “Su Han Yan.”
“Su Han Yan?” Hua Yingyue frowned, “How co I have never heard of this na?”
“King Qin has not delved deep into the Jianghu, so it’s normal that you don’t know this na,” Xie Linyuan said calmly, “Su Han Yan was the second disciple of Palace Master Yun Qing’s generation. She always kept a low profile. It was only when I once visited Taiyi Palace, and she was the one who received , that I rembered such a person.”
“So, the group of disciples from Taiyi Palace who were alive at that ti must have been led by Su Han Yan.” Huo Jingyu continued, “I also have an impression of the surna Zhu.”
“Zhu Jinwei.” At the sa mont, Ye Wanlan and Huo Jingyu both uttered the na.
Zhu Yu was taken aback, “Miss Ye actually knows the na of my family’s founding ancestor?”
After all, Zhu Jinwei had never appeared in any historical records.
Ye Wanlan smiled, “I read more books.”
Zhu Yu nodded, “Although the official history doesn’t record it, perhaps there’s ntion of the founding ancestor in unofficial histories.”
“Could it be that Zhu Yu’s founding ancestor saw through Su Han Yan’s intentions to seize Palace Master Yun Qing’s achievents and thus proposed the separation of healers and dicine practitioners?” Su Xueqing was very smart, “As a way to restrain Su Han Yan?”
“I think so too,” Ye Wanlan nodded lightly, “But now, Su Ningxiang is no longer satisfied with just that. She wants to take back the dicine Garden and claim it entirely for the Su Family.”
“It can return to the Su Family, but the Su must be Xueqing’s Su,” Zhu Yu snorted coldly, “A vile person like Su Ningxiang is not fit to be a healer!”
“Tomorrow morning, my friend will deliver the dicinal materials here,” Ye Wanlan stood up. “Don’t worry, whatever tricks Su Ningxiang has up her sleeve, we’ll dismantle them.”
She was never afraid of strong enemies; on the contrary, she feared weak ones who hid and did not dare to act.
On the way back to the Lin Family, Xie Linyuan frowned and said, “Little Junior Sister, if it was Su Han Yan who did it on purpose, I suspect she might not be dead.”
“Big Senior Brother and I have co to the sa conclusion,” Ye Wanlan’s eyes were slightly cold, “If Yun Qing can survive to this day with the thods of the Gu People, and Su Han Yan was not injured, she might have used the Taiyi Acupuncture Technique to forcefully preserve herself, even if she lost the ability to move.”
Huo Jingyu thought for a mont, “If that’s the case, I’ll scope out the Su Family tonight. Other people can’t see , so I can gather information.”
“I’ll go with Marshal Huo,” Hua Yingyue also said.
**
A long night passed, and the clouds broke with the sunrise.
Early in the morning, Su Ningxiang brought a large group of people to the dicine Garden.
When she saw Su Xueqing and Zhu Yu standing together, a harsh glint flashed through Su Ningxiang’s eyes.
She knew about the good relationship between Su Xueqing and Zhu Yu, which is why she had tried so hard to remove Su Xueqing three years ago.
But now that Su Xueqing had returned, it was still necessary to reclaim the Zhu Family’s dicine Garden first. That way, it would be done once and for all.
“Sister Xueqing is here so early as well?” Su Ningxiang smiled aningfully, “Have you counted the dicinal materials for the Su Family? Is everything there?”
“My mother only had , so whose sister would that be?” Su Xueqing scoffed coldly, “Su Ningxiang, why are you still pretending in front of ?”
Su Ningxiang’s smile faded, “Su Xueqing, don’t think that just because you’ve co back, you can compare yourself with . You’re far from being able to take the power from my hands!”
Su Xueqing smiled fearlessly, “Then let’s just wait and see.”
“Bring them in!” Su Ningxiang ordered coldly, “Check all the dicinal materials and see if they’re enough!”
The guards stepped forward and quickly checked all the dicinal materials, then reported to Su Ningxiang.
“Only a taels of the most important Heavenly Pond Grass and Dusk Sand?” After hearing the report, Su Ningxiang frowned, “This proves that the Zhu Family can’t provide all the dicinal materials needed by the Su Family today.”
Zhu Yu looked at her, “What do you want?”
“Since the Zhu Family can’t provide the dicinal materials required by the Su Family, that’s a violation of the ancestral regulations,” Su Ningxiang revealed a cruel smile, “What do you say?”
At that mont, outside the dicine Garden, a truck ca to a stop.
[Deadly Poison Master]: Rich Sister, I’m here! Which one of you is it?
