Pang Dahai paused for a while before responding in a deep voice, "Gu poison? So it's Gu poison. Now that you ntion it, I do recall sothing." Find your next adventure on empire
A city-level sect leader from the Divine Doctor Sect said, "It is said that the Gu&Poison Sect has a very ancient history within the Hundred Thousand Mountains of the Southern Territory, could it be, Master Pang, that this Gu poison is indeed from the Gu&Poison Sect of the Southern Territory?"
"Exactly!"
Pang Dahai said somberly, "Although the Gu&Poison Sect is a faction, it has many branches, especially in modern tis, where its factional dynamics have beco even more complex. Furthermore, the ans of the Gu&Poison Sect are said to not be limited to Gu and poison."
Unable to restrain himself, Lord of Qi asked, "May I dare to ask Master Pang, is the ailnt that Cui Yan and the other family heads contracted really Gu poison?"
"Indeed, it is Gu poison."
As Pang Dahai spoke, he shook his head with a sigh, "I should have thought of this earlier. I rember back when I was a young man learning dicine, my master, the previous Sect Master of the Divine Doctor Sect, had ntioned it to us, though I did not take it to heart."
"It wasn't until Deputy Sect Leader Luo ntioned it that I suddenly rembered," Pang Dahai finished speaking and turned his head to look at Luo Keque, his face showing approval.
He hadn't directly called Luo Keque by his na but had referred to him as Deputy Sect Leader, which was evidently a sign of respect, an acknowledgnt of Luo Keque.
Lord of Qi, seeing this, couldn't help but frown slightly, with a hint of displeasure in his heart. After all, he was the Sect Master of the Divine Doctor Sect of Southern River Region Jiangnan, and Luo Keque was rely the Vice Sect Leader; for the spotlight to be stolen by Luo Keque, how could he be pleased?
Liang Zhong asked in a low voice, "Lord Qi, does this old man Luo Keque truly have the skill to cure illnesses?"
Lord of Qi replied coldly, "Don't be hasty; just watch and wait."
Suddenly soone asked, "May I dare to ask Master Pang, if you have recognized the Gu poison within the family heads, do you already have a treatnt plan?"
Pang Dahai shook his head and said, "I'm ashad to say that my dical skills have not reached that level, and I am unable to find a solution."
"Even Master Pang, you don't have a way?" Many people in the audience asked in surprise.
Pang Dahai said with a bitter smile, "To tell you the truth, it's not only about . Even if my esteed master were still alive, he wouldn't be able to completely eliminate the Gu poison. At most, he could only delay the onset of its effects, and this was sothing that my master had told us firsthand."
The crowd was once again greatly shocked, "Is Gu poison really that formidable?"
Pang Dahai replied, "As I said before, the branches of the Gu&Poison Sect are intricate, and the Gu poisons are extrely diverse. The biggest challenge is not that they can't be treated, but that it's difficult to identify which type of Gu poison it is, and hence we can't administer the right redy!"
Lord of Qi added, "I too have heard that there are countless types of Gu poison. If we can't determine which exact one it is, hastily administering dicine could worsen the situation."
Pang Dahai sighed and suddenly looked up at Luo Keque, asking, "Mr. Luo, since you've recognized this as Gu poison, are you able to treat it?"
As his words fell, everyone in the room turned their gaze towards Luo Keque.
Luo Keque found himself the center of attention for a mont and beca a bit nervous, but excited at the sa ti—especially since Pang Dahai had just called him "Mr. Luo," which seed to lift him high off the ground.
Fortunately, Luo Keque did not get carried away. He shook his head and said, "I'm ashad to say that although I've identified it as Gu poison, I do not have the capacity to remove it."
Lord of Qi imdiately said coldly, "Then that's as good as nothing. What's the use in just knowing?"
Others who were dissatisfied with Luo Keque stealing the show also said, "Exactly, Master Pang also knows it's Gu poison. After all is said and done, there's still no solution!"
Luo Keque glanced at Ye Feng, then declared loudly, "Although I am incapable, I do know soone who can remove the poison!"
"Soone can remove Gu and Poison, who?" Pang Dahai imdiately asked.
Luo Keque did not point directly at Ye Feng, for he felt that it would be disrespectful to do so. Instead, he promptly strode forward to Ye Feng, bowed slightly, and said, "It is Mr. Ye here. It was also Mr. Ye who inford just now that the family heads have been afflicted with Gu poison."
Almost at the sa ti, the gazes of several dozen people in the hall all turned towards Ye Feng.
Ye Feng's expression remained unchanged, sitting steadfastly in his wheelchair.
Pang Dahai did not follow him but stood at a distance, scrutinizing Ye Feng. When he saw that the other party was a young man and, moreover, a disabled person in a wheelchair, his brows couldn't help but furrow slightly.
Ye Feng was likewise taking in the other party, clearly noticing the change in his expression.
Lord of Qi glanced at Luo Keque, then looked at Luo Keque again, quietly stood up, and then walked over to the Jiang Family's seats down below.
Over by the Jiang Family was a young man in his mid-twenties who, after hearing a few words whispered by Lord of Qi, suddenly looked grim, his gaze toward Ye Feng imdiately turning fierce.
"This Mr. Ye, may I ask your full na? Just now, Mr. Luo ntioned you can remove Gu poison, can you co over to talk?" Pang Dahai, still banking on his own stature, did not leave his seat but called out politely.
Ye Feng slowly said, "You want to co over there to talk? Master of Pang Sect, your legs are in good working order, so why do you not co here?"
His words were still courteous. He, the Northern Border Sovereign, was used to others seeking an audience with him, never before having anyone so bold as to demand he walk over to et them.
Pang Dahai frowned, his face showing signs of displeasure. After all, as the Chief Sect Leader of the Divine Doctor Sect of the Southern River Region Jiangnan Province, his status was the highest among those present. Personally going over to invite soone would be akin to lowering his own worth, would it not?
So Pang Dahai remained unmoved. Seeing this, Lord of Qi secretly signaled the young man from the Jiang Family with a glance.
The young man of the Jiang Family, Jiang Tianhu, slamd the table, sprang to his feet, and called out loudly, "What complete nonsense! This man in the wheelchair, this disabled man, this son-in-law of the Hong Family of Jiangdu, he can cure diseases and remove Gu poison? What a joke!"
In an instant, the whole hall was stirred, and all eyes were drawn once again to Jiang Tianhu.
Pang Dahai hurriedly asked, "Tianhu, do you know this person?"
"I certainly do!"
Jiang Tianhu snorted coldly, "This man is nad Ye Feng, originally the foster son of the Fu Family of Jiangdu. However, due to his arrogant and ignorant nature, he has since been driven out of the Fu Family. Now he is nothing but a worthless son-in-law at the Hong Family of Jiangdu!"
"The Hong Family of Jiangdu, that Hong Family of Jiangdu?" a representative from the Cui Family asked.
Jiang Tianhu scoffed, "That Hong Family of Jiangdu is rely a third-rate prestigious family, not even worth ntioning. And this worthless frenzied son-in-law of the Hong Family, so say he can remove Gu poison? Nonsense, this frenzied son-in-law, relying on the support of a Great Grandmaster behind him, has been causing trouble, beating to death my Jiang Family's elder Jiang Youhe in cold blood.
His actions are simply outrageous!"
As his words fell, the room was imdiately abuzz, many people's expressions changed.
The Jiang Family is one of the Four Great Families of Jiangnan Province, with imnse power and influence. To dare to beat an elder of the Jiang Family to death, one had to wonder whether this person was extrely arrogant or foolish to the extre.
Seeing this unfold, Lord of Qi also stood up and said, "Master of Pang Sect, I also have sothing to say about this Mr. Ye Feng in the wheelchair."
Pang Dahai turned his head and asked, "What would you like to say? Please speak freely."
Lord of Qi directly pointed to Tang Feng and let out a chuckle, "This person, this disabled man here, his claims of being a divine doctor are utter rubbish!"
