“How about this, I will arrange for a disciple from the Medicine Sect to take a look at your servant and care for him for these two days. As for planting the Green Sun Grass, you can go ahead and try, whether it works or not!” the white-bearded elder suggested.
Taking care of the servants was not a difficult task, and any disciple from the Medicine Sect would be capable of handling it. However, obtaining the Green Sun Grass seemed like an unrealistic request.
Gu Chaoyan found the elder’s request rather absurd. Though she herself might have been seen as ridiculous, the elder’s proposition was even more preposterous to the disciples of the Medicine Faction. After all, a servant’s well-being shouldn’t be a concern for them; they were of little significance.
Yet, strangely enough, the elder’s proposal aligned perfectly with what Gu Chaoyan had in mind. At first, she seemed willing to accept it, but then a sudden change came over her as if she faced a formidable adversary. “No,” she firmly refused.
Perplexed by her response, the white-bearded elder inquired, “Why not? Are you concerned about our disciples?”
“My servant was injured by two disciples from the Medicine Faction, Wu Yuze and Fei Zizhen. If they happen to be present, I’m afraid the Green Sun Grass will perish, and my servant’s life will be in jeopardy!” Gu Chaoyan expressed her concern, speaking of the Medicine Faction disciples as if they were unreasonable wild beasts.
Such a revelation stunned everyone present. The notion that the disciples of the Medicine Sect would harm their own servants was shocking. Gu Chaoyan’s purpose here was not to seek pills; instead, she sought an explanation for the mistreatment.
Understanding the gravity of the situation, it became apparent that the two Medicine Sect disciples were in serious trouble. Fu Xinde couldn’t help but deepen his smile, finally realizing why the whole situation seemed peculiar from the beginning.
Gu Chaoyan always had a clear purpose in mind. She wouldn’t approach him without a reason, especially not just to ask for pills.
Finally, the real reason behind her visit became apparent, and it was evident that she was a unique and intelligent individual. Her actions extended beyond seeking justice for herself; she also stood up against those who bullied her and her people.
The elder couldn’t help but admire her, recognizing what a valuable asset this junior sister of hers truly was.
“Of course not! I came here personally to address this matter. I will make sure the disciples of the Medicine Sect take proper care of your servant, and I will thoroughly investigate the incident of your servant being harmed to provide you with an explanation. You need not worry about it. Feel free to plant half of the Green Sun Grass here, and you are welcome to use the Medicine Sect’s medicinal field as long as the plant can thrive!” The white-bearded elder declared assertively, exerting his authority to ensure the situation was handled appropriately.
That was precisely the point.
Gu Chaoyan had no reason to decline the offer.
So, she agreed.
The fact that she was given only half of the Green Sun Grass implied that the elderly man didn’t place all his hopes solely on her. The remaining half would be entrusted to the disciples of the Medicine Sect.
While Gu Chaoyan tried not to show any emotion, deep down, she couldn’t help but feel a twinge of regret. Losing half of the Green Sun Grass meant giving up on the opportunity to produce so many excellent pills, and she inwardly screamed at the missed opportunity.
Soon, the situation settled down. Half of the Green Sun Grass was now in her possession, while the other half was in the hands of the Medicine Faction disciples.
One aggressive disciple from the Medicine Faction, in an attempt to challenge Gu Chaoyan’s abilities, directly taunted, “Let’s see if you can truly cultivate them successfully or if it’s just empty talk!”
With a relaxed tone, Gu Chaoyan calmly responded, her gaze shifting to them, “Just wait and see. I hope all of you can perform as well as a Medicine Faction disciple like me.”
The disciple retorted, “Of course not..”
