Peerless Medical Emperor

Patriarch Zheng looked at Zhuge Yunduan very seriously.

"Patriarch Zheng, don’t trust this kid."

"He only passed the assessment through sheer luck. He has no real skill."

"Only I can treat your son’s illness."

Zhuge Yunduan looked at Patriarch Zheng with a smile on his face.

"Then let me ask you, what illness does my son have?"

"Can you name it?"

Patriarch Zheng looked toward Zhuge Yunduan.

Zhuge Yunduan looked awkward. He really didn’t know.

’If I can’t name it, I’ll be a complete laughingstock.’

"May I examine your son again?"

"I didn’t look closely enough before."

Zhuge Yunduan said.

However, Patriarch Zheng didn’t agree right away. Instead, he looked over at Chen Qingdi.

"Divine Physician Chen, do you think that’s alright?"

Patriarch Zheng asked Chen Qingdi.

Hearing Patriarch Zheng address Chen Qingdi as Divine Physician Chen made Zhuge Yunduan furious.

"Go ahead."

Chen Qingdi nodded.

Having to get Chen Qingdi’s permission just to examine Young Master Zheng’s condition made it feel as though Chen Qingdi was his superior, which deeply displeased Zhuge Yunduan.

However, with Patriarch Zheng right there, he didn’t dare show his displeasure too openly.

"Then my thanks to Mr. Chen."

With that, Zhuge Yunduan walked over to Young Master Zheng.

Once at Young Master Zheng’s side, Zhuge Yunduan examined him with intense focus. Green hair, like weeds, was still growing from the surface of his skin.

However, the foul stench was gone, which he found rather peculiar.

"Young Master Zheng had a foul odor about him, but it’s gone now. It seems his condition is improving."

"It’s not a fatal illness."

Zhuge Yunduan said with a grin.

"That’s because Divine Physician Chen’s treatment eliminated the foul odor from my son."

Patriarch Zheng said with a smile.

’Chen Qingdi again.’ Now, Patriarch Zheng could barely go a sentence without mentioning Chen Qingdi, which made Zhuge Yunduan extremely unhappy.

He couldn’t help but wonder, ’Is this Chen Qingdi really that incredible?’

’Why wasn’t I affected by the smell earlier?’

These questions filled his mind.

"Mr. Zhuge, have you found anything?"

Patriarch Zheng finally asked after watching Zhuge Yunduan stare for a long time.

"Yes, I’ve seen just about enough."

Zhuge Yunduan said with a smile.

"Then may I ask, what exactly is wrong with my son?"

Patriarch Zheng asked with a smile, looking at Zhuge Yunduan.

Patriarch Zheng was sure Zhuge Yunduan hadn’t figured anything out.

After all, he’d been staring for a long time. Given Zhuge Yunduan’s temper, if he had figured something out, he would have blurted it out by now.

"From what I can see, Young Master Zheng’s qi and blood have been corrupted by a simple chill, causing his body hair to change color. It’s nothing serious."

"I can cure Young Master Zheng with just a few doses of herbal medicine."

Zhuge Yunduan said with a smile.

"You can cure Young Master Zheng with just a few doses of medicine?"

Chen Qingdi looked at Zhuge Yunduan with mockery in his eyes.

"Of course. I don’t know what trick you used to bewitch Patriarch Zheng into trusting you so much."

"But in my eyes, you’re a nobody—nothing more than a traveling quack. If Young Master Zheng’s illness is left in your hands, he’s guaranteed to die."

"Patriarch Zheng, trust me. I can save your son."

Zhuge Yunduan was mainly after the rewards promised by the Zheng Family, which was why he was fighting so hard for this opportunity.

In reality, his medical skills were vastly inferior to Chen Qingdi’s.

But Chen Qingdi couldn’t be bothered to stoop to his level. Besides, if the man wanted to show off in front of him, he was happy to let him.

’Just don’t come crying to me when he lifts a rock only to drop it on his own foot. He can’t say I didn’t give him the chance.’

Seeing that Young Master Zheng was still unconscious, Zhuge Yunduan immediately made his play.

He said with a smile, "With just one dose of my medicine, Young Master Zheng will wake up immediately."

"Really?"

Patriarch Zheng looked at Zhuge Yunduan, his voice tinged with disbelief.

"Of course. This was never a serious illness to begin with—just discolored body hair from a chill entering the body. May I begin?"

Zhuge Yunduan said, looking at Patriarch Zheng.

"Fine."

Patriarch Zheng nodded.

He, too, wanted his son to wake up as soon as possible.

He couldn’t bear to see his son in so much pain any longer.

Having finally gotten this chance, Zhuge Yunduan certainly wasn’t going to let it go. He quickly took out the medical kit he carried on his back.

Zhuge Yunduan then quickly took out a pill from inside.

"This is the Rapid Life-saving Pill I developed myself. It can reactivate the body’s functions and make a person wake up instantly. After that, he will just need to recuperate."

Zhuge Yunduan said.

"Really?"

Patriarch Zheng immediately glanced at the Elixir Pill in Zhuge Yunduan’s hand. It was just a dark, black Elixir, nothing special about its appearance, and it didn’t smell very pleasant either.

"Of course. This one pill is all it will take to wake Young Master Zheng. You can rest assured."

Zhuge Yunduan said with a confident expression.

Seeing Zhuge Yunduan’s confident expression, Patriarch Zheng began to feel a bit more convinced.

"Alright. Then please, hurry and give it to my son."

Patriarch Zheng said.

"You got it! Don’t you worry, this is a Life-saving Pill. Many people who’ve taken it have had their illnesses disappear immediately."

Zhuge Yunduan said with a smile.

"Oh, by the way, Patriarch Zheng, if I cure Young Master Zheng, then the reward you promised will be mine, won’t it? With no share for Mr. Chen."

As Zhuge Yunduan spoke, he shot a glance at Chen Qingdi.

Chen Qingdi pretended not to hear him.

Furthermore, Chen Qingdi had immense confidence in himself. He believed that in this world, aside from the Sixteen Immortal Needles, there was likely no other cure for Young Master Zheng’s illness.

In Chen Qingdi’s eyes, the sight of Zhuge Yunduan producing some so-called Rapid Life-saving Pill was utterly laughable.

In Chen Qingdi’s eyes, Zhuge Yunduan had become nothing more than a contemptible clown.

Although he hadn’t closely examined what exactly this Life-saving Pill from Zhuge Yunduan was, a single glance at its quality told him it was no decent Elixir.

Everything he’d said before was probably complete nonsense.

Saving someone with an Elixir like that? It was a complete fantasy.

’I really have no idea what Zhuge Yunduan is planning. He can’t possibly think this Elixir will actually save the patient, can he?’

’Besides, Young Master Zheng’s condition is no ordinary illness. If this ends up killing him, isn’t he worried about the consequences?’

But since Patriarch Zheng had already agreed, what could he say? He had no choice but to remain silent.

Chen Qingdi could only stand to the side and watch.
