Chapter 141 Medicine King Sect
As the saying goes, "If I don't go to hell, who will?"
Jiang Yueming didn't think too much about himself, perhaps because he was a soldier in his previous life.
Serving the country and its people with selfless dedication is the moral principle he upholds.
Hearing Jiang Yueming's resolute answer, Yang Shuo frowned and her lips trembled slightly as she said, "If your prescription threatens the interests of alchemists, they will ask the Medicine King Sect to take action. Their method of taking action is to cut the enemy into pieces and refine them into pills."
"The Medicine King Sect?" Jiang Yueming blinked, the keyword she caught was different from what Yang Shuo had thought.
"The Medicine King Sect is the largest gathering place for alchemists in the Imperial State, which means that all alchemists in the Imperial State are led by the Medicine King Sect."
Yang Shuo's pale red eyes widened slightly, as if she had thought of something, and she added, "Although you come from the Jiang family, the Medicine King Sect is backed by the Li family. You should know about the Li family, right?"
Since the Li family received the support of that important figure, their strength and influence have clearly reached the point where they can swallow up the Zhang and Jiang families. Once the two families are annexed, the royal family will be nothing more than a piece of their paws.
The Li family has never made a move against the royal family, or rather, none of the three families have made a move against the royal family, allowing the royal family to linger on in the Holy Dragon Empire, precisely because they are afraid of giving their rivals any leverage.
Overall, the Jiang family is no match for the Li family. Moreover, judging from Jiang Yiyu's attitude towards Jiang Yueming just now, it seems that Jiang Yueming's importance in the Jiang family is not that significant.
Then he absolutely cannot reveal the prescription, otherwise he will be targeted by the Medicine King Sect, and without any backing or background, he is destined to perish.
"Use the prescription as you please. I'm not afraid of either the Li family or the Medicine King Sect," Jiang Yueming said, knowing exactly what Yang Shuo was worried about, and made her determination clear.
Anyway, his relationship with the three families is very delicate. The three families use him as a pawn to manipulate, but he is unwilling to be a puppet pawn.
Therefore, a battle between him and the three families is inevitable sooner or later, so what's wrong with making another enemy now?
"But what exactly are you doing this for? Is it to get revenge on Jiang Yiyu for mocking you?" Yang Shuo asked calmly, her face as cold as water.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yueming's lips curved slightly, revealing a sunny smile: "Just like you, I'm doing this to save the people."
In order to... save the people!
At this moment, Jiang Yueming's smile was reflected in her red eyes, and Yang Shuo's lips parted slightly, her cool and elegant face slowly revealing a rare joy in the warm light of the rising sun.
"Just like me... to save the people," she repeated Jiang Yueming's words involuntarily, a glimmer of starlight quietly appearing in her eyes.
"Yes, we both think the same thing: to let the people live in peace and prosperity, away from illness and...war!" Jiang Yueming gazed at a pair of pale red eyes under the white bamboo hat, his expression solemn and dignified.
When a burning gaze fell upon her, Yang Shuo's delicate body trembled, and she felt as if she had met a kindred spirit.
She traveled a great distance from the Heavenly Mystery Empire to the Holy Dragon Empire because she heard that war had broken out again on the border. Although she, as a healer, could not go to the battlefield to protect her country, she could still do what she could.
Since doctors have the ability to save lives, they should relieve people's suffering and reduce the number of deaths in this cruel war.
"We think the same thing," Yang Shuo repeated Jiang Yueming's words, her red eyes suddenly shifting as if she remembered something, and said, "Young Master Jiang, I still have patients to see, so I'll take my leave first."
As soon as the words fell, Jiang Yueming nodded to Yang Shuo. Only then did she conjure white spirit wings and fly away into the distance with a light touch of her toes.
On the cliff top, Jiang Yueming silently watched the beautiful figure walk further and further away until it shrank into a tiny dot.
He had just turned his heel slightly, preparing to leave, when he suddenly noticed the beautiful figure rapidly turning back, the tiny dot gradually becoming a clear human silhouette.
"What is this...?" Jiang Yueming looked at Yang Shuo in front of her with surprise and asked.
Suddenly, Yang Shuo extended a jade-like finger from the void and pointed towards Jiang Yueming's sleeve, hesitatingly saying, "The sachet I gave you... might be useful if the people from the Medicine King Sect come."
"I came back to tell Young Master Jiang about this. Of course, I hope that you will never have to use it."
Jiang Yueming heard every word Yang Shuo said and nodded subconsciously, saying, "I will remember."
"Then, young master, we shall meet again." Yang Shuo received the reply, and her pair of spirit wings fluttered slightly again. Her figure instantly transformed and disappeared into the sky.
"It seems this Doctor Yang has quite an unusual background."
Jiang Yueming watched the beautiful figure disappear into the distance again, his lips moved slightly, then he stomped his foot, spread his golden eagle wings, and flew in the opposite direction from Yang Shuo.
Previously, while in prison, I had learned from the messenger that the royal family had dispatched Yang Fang as an imperial envoy to Chu to oversee the war.
It was clear that the royal family was completely unaware of the situation at the border and still wanted to fight the English dogs.
However, it doesn't matter. Since the court has sent someone with influence, Jiang Yueming can take this opportunity to make contact. At the same time, Elliot will also be coming to Chuting, which is a good time to make peace.
So his next destination was Chuting!
……
Outside the gate of the mountain stronghold.
A man in blue leaned against the threshold, glancing contemptuously at the man in black robes beside him.
"Why did you suddenly call out to me?" the man in blue asked slowly.
"If I hadn't stopped you, were you planning to kill Jiang Yueming?"
Zhang Yuan's eyes darkened, and he asked Jiang Yiyu a question in return.
Jiang Yiyu's punch earlier was clearly intended to kill. If he hadn't stopped Jiang Yiyu in time, Jiang Yueming would probably be crippled if not dead.
After all, with his cultivation at the fourth stage of the Primordial Realm, killing Jiang Yueming, who was at the first stage of the Primordial Realm, in an instant would be a simple matter of moving his fingers.
However, one thing is one thing, and the other is another. Jiang Yiyu was very dissatisfied with Zhang Yuan's current attitude. He smiled sneer and said, "Zhang Yuan, you are nothing more than a dog by that person's side."
"It's not your place to tell me what to do!"
Zhang Yuan suddenly sneered and said, "I may be a dog, but can you afford to offend my master?"
"Do you think the Jiang family, a mere pawn, can protect you? Don't forget who the adults are!"
Hearing these words, Jiang Yiyu felt a chill run down his spine and straightened up, abandoning his previous arrogant demeanor.
His arrogance vanished instantly, replaced by deep apprehension and fear in his eyes.
That person was indeed beyond his ability to resist; in his presence, he had no choice but to submit.
That's a dead end!
Zhang Yuan keenly sensed that Jiang Yiyu had toned down his aristocratic demeanor and said, "My lord sent me to tell you that, as previously agreed, you can now leave the stronghold and no longer need to refine pills for them."
"Thank you very much, sir."
Jiang Yiyu glanced at Zhang Yuan one last time, his face somewhat cold, and he didn't intend to say anything more to him.
A thought flashed through his mind, a pair of ice-blue spiritual wings unfurled on his back, and with a burst of strength from his toes, he soared into the air and transformed into a streak of light, disappearing completely in front of the mountain stronghold.
