Chapter 74 - Daoist Medical Family!

As soon as he entered the attic, Wen Tingguang’s expression became much more serious.

Wen Tingguang, with his hands clasped behind him, led Ling Feng forward with large strides.

Outside the main hall, numerous Cultivation experts had gathered, many of whom exuded an aura not inferior to Lin Canglang or even Duanmu Qingshan.

Seeing Wen Tingguang enter, many martial artists quickly came forward to salute.

“Elder Wen!”

“Elder Wen has finally returned!”

“How did it go, Elder, did you make any findings?”

Wen Tingguang brushed past the crowd without engaging them, leading Ling Feng through the main hall into a relatively serene corridor on the left.

Before long, the two reached a particularly tranquil and elegant waterside pavilion, where a maid immediately came up to greet them, bowing slightly and softly saying, “This maid pays respects to Elder Wen.”

“How is the Sect Leader?” Wen Tingguang frowned, his face filled with concern.

The maid did not dare to delay, hurriedly replying, “This maid only knows that Elder Liu has invited many doctors from the Daoist Medical Family, even the youngest Divine Country Imperial Physician has been summoned to give a diagnosis to the Sect Leader.

However, the results are still unknown.”

“The youngest Divine Country Imperial Physician?” Wen Tingguang nodded; he himself was quite skilled in medical knowledge and had heard a little about this renowned Imperial Physician.

His name was Sun Siyi, the heir of the Daoist Medical Family from the Su Family.

The Sun Family had served as the Divine Country Imperial Physicians since the founding of the Sky White Empire, and their reputation was exceedingly distinguished.

Originally, the illness of the Cangqiong Sect Master was supposed to be kept secret; inviting the Divine Country Imperial Physician also carried a substantial risk of leaking this secret.

After all, while the surface of the Empire appeared calm, it was actually turbulent underneath, with many influential figures believing that the existence of the Cangqiong Sect restricted their interests.

If these individuals learned that the Cangqiong Sect Master was seriously ill, they might employ some schemes to suppress the Cangqiong Sect’s position in the Empire.

However, as the Sect Leader’s condition worsened, Elder Liu could no longer be overly cautious; eventually, the Divine Country Imperial Physician was summoned.

It should be noted that the Sun Family, being a millennium-old Daoist Medical Family, had always prided itself on its integrity, so this Sun Siyi was unlikely to leak the news of the Sect Leader’s illness.

“Let’s hope it’s helpful,” Wen Tingguang hummed softly, frowning and sighing, “These descendants of the Daoist Medical Family are inferior to the generations that came before them, always thinking they are superior just because they are from Daoist Medical Families.

How many of them truly possess knowledge and skill?”

The maid just listened, not daring to speak more.

Elder Wen was not to be provoked, and neither was the heir of the Daoist Medical Family, certainly not someone a lowly maid should audaciously comment on.

“Well, lead me inside,” Wen Tingguang said lightly.

“Yes, Elder, please follow me,” the young maid, bowing again, led Wen Tingguang and Ling Feng through the quiet corridor with hurried steps.

Ling Feng was silently pondering in his heart.

From the maid’s and Wen Tingguang’s conversation, it seemed that the person he was to treat this time had an extraordinary identity.

The Sect Leader of the Cangqiong Sect!

Wasn’t that Yue Yunlan’s father!

It wasn’t long before the maid stopped outside the waterside pavilion, which served as the private retreat for the Cangqiong Sect Master, a place of utmost tranquility that was rarely visited.

“The Sect Leader is on the second floor, and there are many respected doctors currently waiting on the first floor,” said the maid, bending her body.

“Hmm, I see,” Wen Tingguang said lightly, then, leading Ling Feng, he pushed open the door and walked into the waterside pavilion.

Just as they stepped into the attic, it was indeed filled with quite a number of people.

About six or seven groups of people, each carrying a medicine box and emitting a faint scent of elixirs.

These individuals all knew each other and were engaged in conversations, mentioning names like “Huaa Tuo” and “Bian Niao”, all carrying intimidating reputations.

Although Ling Feng was an heir of the Medical Saint, he had never been part of the Divine Country Imperial Doctor circle and knew few “Divine Doctors.”

However, from his experience traveling and practicing medicine with Ling Kun, he found that those so-called Divine Doctors were mostly overrated, and the few capable ones could not compare to his “Supreme Mysterious Acupuncture Technique.”

When Wen Tingguang entered with a young man, all eyes immediately turned their way.

One slightly overweight middle-aged man squinted his eyes and chuckled, “Elder Wen, who is this person you brought?

Is he your relative?”

“Ah, it’s Jin Kui, the Divine Doctor,” Wen Tingguang evidently recognized the man and greeted him with a bow, replying indifferently, “This young man is not my relative, but a doctor I have invited to treat the Sect Leader.”

“A doctor?” The middle-aged man sized up Ling Feng and indeed noticed some medicinal fragrance on him, indicating constant contact with various herbs.

Yet, he could not help laughing out loud, “Elder Wen, you must be desperate to turn to such measures.

What capabilities can this youngster possibly have?”

Another horse-faced doctor jeered, “Hmm, a doctor without even a Daoist Doctor badge, who knows where he picked up Wild Fox Zen.

This kind of roadside quack, Elder Wen, you surely haven’t been swindled, have you?”

“Ha ha ha…”

The attic burst into laughter from those “Divine Doctors.”

They were the heirs of various aristocratic Daoist medical families and had never seen someone like Ling Feng, naturally looking down on him.

“Wild Doctor?

Wild Fox Zen?”

Ling Feng took a deep breath and said calmly, “Medical skill isn’t verbalized!”

“Oh, look at the nerve of this young man!” The middle-aged man scoffed in disdain, “I am Jin Kui, the seventeenth-generation descendant of the Jin Family of Daoist Medical Family.

And you?

Are you sure you qualify to question me?”

“I am a descendant of the Huaa Family of Daoist Medical Family!”

“I am a descendant of the Lee Family of Daoist Medical Family!”

“I am…”

One after another, the doctors in the attic proclaimed their prestigious lineages, wearing looks of immense pride.

Daoist Medical Families were without exception centuries-old, with at least three generations having served as Divine Country Imperial Doctors.

Only such families could be called Daoist Medical Families.

Ling Feng smiled faintly, looking straight into their mocking eyes, and said word by word, “So, may I ask if any of you has cured the Sect Leader?”

“This…”

Silence fell as the self-proclaimed heirs of Daoist Medical Families were rendered speechless.

Each of them had diagnosed the Cangqiong Sect Master but were utterly helpless.

At that moment, three figures descended from the staircase on the second floor, led by a white-haired elder with a man and a woman behind him.

Both appeared very young, yet a strong scent of elixirs surrounded them; clearly, both were proficient doctors.

The white-haired elder spotted Wen Tingguang and said flatly, “So it’s Elder Wen.

Is this the doctor you brought?” ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ ɴovᴇl(F)ɪre.ɴet

Wen Tingguang ignored the white-haired elder and turned to Ling Feng, “Follow me upstairs, young man.”

Ling Feng nodded; the competence of his medical skills was certainly not for these self-proclaimed descendants of Daoist Medical Families to judge!
