CHAPTER 386: CHAPTER 248: A HEAVYWEIGHT NEGOTIATION

"So you are Yun Sheng, this is our first meeting, I believe," Grandmaster Wen arrogantly ignored Yao Rong and walked directly up to Yun Sheng.

Seeing her master’s indifference, Yao Rong couldn’t help but feel heartbroken. Fan Zhi saw this and comforted his wife by patting her shoulder, both exchanging a silent look.

It was also the first time Yun Sheng had met the top figure of the Yujing medical community, known as the Great National Doctor of Great Zhou, Grandmaster Wen.

He had a youthful face and white hair, not showing any sign of being a man nearing ninety years of age.

Rumors had it that his acupuncture skills were unparalleled in Great Zhou.

In face of this senior predecessor in the medical community, Yun Sheng was also rather polite. She bowed and said respectfully, "I am Yun Sheng. What advice does Grandmaster Wen have for visiting today?"

"Advice is hardly the word. You were able to cure Yun Canglang’s hand illness, which is truly unmatched in the world. I am here to negotiate. Medicine Emperor Pavilion and Little Ci’en Hall have been at odds for half a year, benefiting neither side. I hope, from now on, we govern our own affairs without interfering with each other. You continue with your Medicine Hall, and Medicine Emperor Pavilion will also resume your normal supply of medicinal herbs," Grandmaster Wen said, still carrying the pride of a national physician.

Despite Medicine Emperor Pavilion clearly being at a disadvantage, his words made it seem as though it was Little Ci’en Hall overestimating itself.

Yun Sheng gave a cold smile, "Grandmaster Wen, you are mistaken. When has Little Ci’en Hall ever rivaled the Medicine Emperor Pavilion? It was you who blocked our supply of medicinal herbs. Had it not been for the Medicine Hall’s ability to operate some Magic Potion trade, I fear Little Ci’en Hall would no longer exist in Yujing City."

"How audacious! If it weren’t for the fact that you are General Yun’s granddaughter, do you think you could still remain in Yujing City?" Grandmaster Wen’s forehead vein nearly throbbed.

For how many years had no one dared to speak to him like this.

Even the current Emperor of Great Zhou would not dare to speak to him in this manner. After all, everyone falls ill, and should one contract a terminal disease, Grandmaster Wen had the medical skill to bring someone back from the brink of death.

"My ability to stand my ground in Yujing City has never been because of my last name, Yun. If possible, I wouldn’t want to associate with this surname for my entire life," Yun Sheng’s face was filled with defiance.

What an arrogant young lady.

Grandmaster Wen was so angry that he nearly spewed blood.

But she indeed had the capital to be arrogant.

She, Yun Sheng, from her rise to fame with a single medicine at the Royal Magic Academy, to her notoriety as the Bloody Lolita at Hunting Soldier Guard City, to becoming an elder at Wu Xuan Wuji Pavilion’s Medicine Hall, never once relied on the strength of the Yun Residence.

The Yun Residence was in its twilight years, while she was like the rising sun. Her future held boundless possibilities.

Even Grandmaster Wen, at that moment, found himself speechless under questioning.

"Yun Sheng, don’t be ungrateful for kindness and drink punitive wine. Grandmaster Wen himself has come to make peace, which is already giving enough face. Do you really think, with just yourself, you can protect everyone around you?" Qi Fangfei glared sharply, focusing a fierce glance at Xiao Yun beside Yun Sheng.

She was threatening Yun Sheng.

Perhaps she found nowhere to start with Yun Sheng herself, but she could mercilessly destroy anything related to the villagers and everything related to Little Ci’en Hall.

"And do you really think you and the forces behind you can protect the several hundred pharms of Medicine Emperor Pavilion at all times?" Yun Sheng was not at all alarmed by the threat. She grinned, her smile unrestrained.

Medicine Emperor Pavilion’s pharms?

The people from the Medicine Hall suddenly realized. What Yun Sheng meant by tampering was directed at the pharms.

To strike the snake at its vital spot, for the colossal entity like Medicine Emperor Pavilion, their lifeline was the pharms spread across the continent.

What the crowd couldn’t understand was how Yun Sheng, who hadn’t left Yujing City for months, was able to sabotage the pharms of the Medicine Emperor Pavilion.

From Grandmaster Wen and Qi Fangfei’s constipated expressions, it was clear that Yun Sheng had inflicted a heavy loss on them this time.

Grandmaster Wen and Qi Fangfei also realized why not all the hundreds of pharms on the continent were destroyed this time, but just a few dozen were sabotaged.

Yun Sheng meant that she wasn’t incapable of destroying it; rather, it was because Yun Sheng had long predicted that this negotiation would undoubtedly take place.

She had prepared ample bargaining chips for this negotiation well in advance.

Everything was under her control.

Was she really just a child of eight or nine years old?

Her calmness and thoroughness were enough to make Grandmaster Wen, an old ginger, ashamed.

"What a vicious little bitch," Qi Fangfei felt powerless, and even though she was a ruthless character herself, she felt a genuine sense of powerlessness when facing Yun Sheng.

"Thank you for the praise, but I’m not quite up to the Qi Medicine Man’s level, with venom in both their people and their hearts," Yun Sheng slightly lifted her eyelids.

In the end, Grandmaster Wen compromised too.

For the Medicine Emperor Pavilion, the supply of medicinal herbs could not be cut off; otherwise, the supply issue could cause the Medicine Emperor Pavilion to collapse in a matter of months across the continent.

Yun Sheng’s threat was simple, yet it was the most effective.

Little Ci’en Hall and Medicine Emperor Pavilion had temporarily ceased hostilities because of this negotiation.

Yun Sheng withdrew the Beast Ants from the pharmacy, and the Medicine Emperor Pavilion also resumed the normal supply of medicinal herbs to Little Ci’en Hall.

When Grandmaster Wen left, he only said one sentence as he passed by Doctor Fan and Yao Rong: "You better watch yourselves."

With today’s departure, the mentor-mentee trio’s bond was also concluded.

Both Yun Sheng and the Medicine Emperor Pavilion were clear that Little Ci’en Hall and Medicine Emperor Pavilion had not truly reconciled; they were simply giving each other a chance to breathe.

For Yun Sheng, Little Ci’en Hall’s current strength was still not powerful enough to contend with the Medicine Emperor Pavilion.

For the Medicine Emperor Pavilion, they had expended too much energy on Little Ci’en Hall.

During this period, they needed to find an opportunity to completely resolve the issue with Little Ci’en Hall.

When he walked past Ji Mo, Grandmaster Wen suddenly stopped.

He said enigmatically, "Let the past be a lesson for the future, and not only the Medicine Emperor Pavilion will be affected."

After speaking, he gave Ji Mo an extra look.

Yao Rong was quite saddened, but Doctor Fan comforted her on the side: "Those who stand for different paths do not plan together. The Medicine Emperor Pavilion now is different from the one in our childhood."

Once they left the Medicine Emperor Pavilion, both had resolved to wholeheartedly serve Little Ci’en Hall.

In this confrontation, Yun Sheng’s displayed wit and courage deeply impressed both Doctor Fan and Yao Rong.

"That was amazing," Lin Yao’er didn’t come back to her senses until Grandmaster Wen had left, feeling as if she had just woken from a dream.

She hadn’t seen wrongly, had she? Divine Doctor Yun had sent Grandmaster Wen packing, and they had won against the Medicine Emperor Pavilion!

"Don’t let your guard down. Starting tomorrow, we’ll begin restructuring the Magic Medicine Store," Yun Sheng also let out a sigh of relief. This battle had her heart pounding.

She just didn’t know what kind of crisis was still waiting for her down the line.

"Ji Mo, I want to talk with you," Yun Sheng felt that it was time to lay her cards on the table with Ji Mo.
