Alert! Miracle doctor released from prison

Zhang Xinglin didn't dare to speak and quickly looked at Wu Chengze.

He was terrified that this man, who doted on his daughter to the core, might actually kill him, cut off his head, and hand it over to Chen Huo. He also had children and could understand the feelings of being a mother and parent.

Wu Chengze frowned slightly.

His tone was calm.

"Zhang Xinglin has no grudge against you, why drag him into this? Let's change the terms."

Chen Huo's tone was also calm: "Whether we have any grudges or not, we both know in our hearts. If you don't accept this condition, then there's no need for us to continue talking."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xinglin's heart sank.

Could it be that Chen Huo discovered a problem with the medicinal materials?

That shouldn't be happening!

This is a family heirloom craft passed down through generations in the Zhang family.

How could Chen Huo possibly see that?

Wu Chengze glanced at Zhang Xinglin, his expression somewhat reproachful.

However, he didn't react immediately, and said calmly, "Let's put that condition aside for now. What's the second condition?"

"If you won't even agree to the first one, is there any need to ask about the second?"

"Shouldn't I know what the three conditions are? What if the other two conditions are even more difficult? Chen Huo, I came here with sincerity."

Wu Chengze said in a serious tone.

Zhang Xinglin's heart was in her throat at this moment.

Wu Chengze's lack of explicit refusal implies that he might agree.

"What you said isn't entirely unreasonable. Let me just tell you the other two conditions. Second, you need to give me one of the two medicinal herbs, Crimson Flame Heart Sunflower and Spirit Rhinoceros Jade Dew Mushroom. Third, you need to pay me a consultation fee of one hundred million."

The second condition is self-explanatory: to collect the medicinal materials for refining the Breakthrough Pill. The Wu family has a history of hundreds of years, so even if they don't have them themselves, they can find a way to get them from other aristocratic families.

The third condition was purely for show, intended to make his demands seem less unreasonable and more acceptable to Wu Chengze. If every condition seemed unreasonable, it would be meaningless.

"The third condition is no big deal, but the second one is a bit difficult. Let's choose another one." Wu Chengze's tone became a little impatient, and he secretly felt some dissatisfaction with Chen Huo.

He had never heard of either the Crimson Flame Heart Sunflower or the Spirit Rhinoceros Jade Dew Mushroom.

But even a fool would know that it wouldn't be that easy to get his hands on.

Otherwise, Chen Huo wouldn't have brought it up as a condition.

Isn't this making things difficult for people?

In comparison, one hundred million is nothing.

"I have no interest in anything else. Whether or not you agree is up to the Wu family head to decide. If you decide to agree to my conditions, just call me directly."

Wu Chengze sensed that Chen Huo wanted to hang up, and quickly said, "If I agree to these three conditions, can you guarantee you'll cure my daughter?"

Chen Huo said calmly, "You know in your heart that only I can cure your daughter. If I can't, you can do whatever you want with her."

After saying that, Chen Huo hung up the phone.

Only then did Zhang Xinglin dare to speak.

"Master, are you really going to hand me over to Chen Huo?"

"How is that possible?"

Wu Chengze shook his head and said seriously, "Putting aside your contributions to my Wu family over the years and your relationship with the members of my Wu family, if I did this, who would dare to work for my Wu family in the future? You can put your mind at ease."

He appears to be very sincere on the surface.

In fact, I had already begun to consider the feasibility of this approach.

What contribution?

What outsiders' opinions?

In this world, if you have enough power, others will have to do things for you.

Just like when Zhang Xinglin was forced to join the Wu family back then.

Zhang Xinglin breathed a sigh of relief.

He also felt that Wu Chengze wouldn't do that.

After all, their own value is undeniable.

Of course, he didn't completely believe Wu Chengze's words.

The main issues are the Crimson Flame Heart Sunflower and the Spirit Rhinoceros Jade Dew Mushroom, both of which are extremely rare medicinal materials. Even if the Wu family could obtain them, it would take them time, and Wu Chengze's daughter didn't have that much time.

Moreover, how much time Wu Chengze's daughter has is ultimately up to him.

He dared not reveal these thoughts in the slightest.

He feigned a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you, Patriarch. I, Zhang Xinglin, will serve you with my life!"

"Alright, enough of that. Tell me about the Crimson Flame Heart Sunflower and the Spirit Rhinoceros Jade Dew Mushroom. Are these two herbs hard to obtain?" Wu Chengze asked, waving his hand.

The condition for agreeing to Chen Huo's conditions is that the medicinal herbs can be obtained.

"Difficult! Extremely difficult!"

Zhang Xinglin shook his head and said in a deep voice, "In the past, these two medicinal herbs were extremely rare and difficult to find. In modern society, due to population explosion and environmental destruction, they are even harder to find!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Chengze sighed deeply: "It seems my daughter is beyond saving."

Zhang Xinglin could only remain silent in response.

If it were curable, he would have done it long ago.

It's no use saying anything now.

"Well, we can only leave it to fate."

Wu Cheng'en took a deep breath, composed himself, and said, "Dr. Zhang, do your best. Whatever the outcome, I won't blame you. As for Chen Huo... I'll think of another way."

"Yes, Master."

"You can go now."

After waving Zhang Xinglin away, Wu Chengze looked at Wu Yi'an, who had remained silent, and asked, "That Zhang Xinglin wasn't lying to me, was he? Are the Crimson Flame Heart Sunflower and the Spirit Rhinoceros Jade Dew Mushroom really that difficult to handle?"

Wu Yi'an nodded: "That's right. Actually, Zhang Xinglin was being a bit conservative. The chances of these two medicinal herbs still existing are extremely slim. Now we can only think of other ways."

Upon hearing this, Wu Chengze frowned.

After a long silence, he asked, "Is there really no hope at all?"

"It's not that there's absolutely no hope."

Wu Yi'an shook his head and said, "The Crimson Flame Heart Sunflower, the Spirit Rhinoceros Jade Dew Mushroom, and the Azure Marrow Cleansing Fruit clearly indicate that Chen Huo wanted to refine a Breakthrough Pill. Other ancient martial arts families have also tried to refine this pill."

"You mean, other ancient martial arts families might have that?"

"That's certainly possible, but whether they're willing to disclose it is another matter. Even if they are, they'll likely demand an exorbitant price and take a huge bite out of us!"

Wu Yi'an said in a low voice.

Actually, he really wanted to say that it wasn't worth doing this for a little girl.

But he didn't dare say it directly.

This was the only way to remind Wu Chengze.

Wu Chengze was a cunning old fox, and he immediately understood the meaning behind Wu Yi'an's words. He was secretly annoyed, but he also knew that from the perspective of the family's interests, there was indeed no need for this.

But he truly couldn't bear to part with his daughter.

So he came up with a very reasonable excuse.

"So what if they take a bite? As long as we plan properly, we'll seize Chen Huo's Breakthrough Pill once it's finished. If my father takes it and breaks through his current realm, the whole world will belong to the Wu family!"

Wu Yi'an felt utterly disgusted upon hearing this.

Chen Huo was no fool, and the Goddess Pavilion was no pushover either.

If they gather all the medicinal herbs, they will definitely go to the Goddess Pavilion to refine them. How did the Wu family manage to snatch the pills refined by Chen Huo right under the noses of so many experts in the Goddess Pavilion?

Just outrageous!
