Mad Doctor No. 9

He took out the token of the Dragon Gate Society headquarters again and held it in his hand.

The jade pendant emitted a warm glow, as if it were pointing the way.

Just then, the jade pendant suddenly vibrated and pointed towards the direction of Penglai Immortal Island.

At the same time, another image appeared in Wang Tian's mind.

A disciple of the Dragon Gate, holding a jade pendant, stood in front of the bronze cauldron, muttering to himself.

As he chanted, the jade pendant emitted a white light, and the blue light inside also moved accordingly.

Finally, he placed the jade pendant on a certain spot on the cauldron, where there was a groove that looked exactly like the jade pendant!

"I see..." Wang Tian suddenly realized, "This jade pendant isn't just a token; it's also a key that can control the bronze cauldron! If we put the pendant back, it might even strengthen the seal again!"

The problem is, Ghost Face must have deployed a large number of people on the island. How is he going to get close to the bronze cauldron?

Wang Tian pondered for a moment and made up his mind.

He called Xiao Hao: "Captain Xiao, can you do me a favor?"

the next day.

Chen Sihai sat in the chairman's office, listening to the reports from his subordinates.

"Boss, our Penglai Immortal Island has assembled an expedition team of twenty people, all of whom are our people in disguise."

"Hmm." Chen Sihai, over fifty years old and with a large belly, had eyes that shone brightly. "What are your orders, Lord Ghost Face?"

"The Lord has commanded that this person must be brought here."

That's a photo of Wang Tian.

"Is this Wang Jiuzhen?" Chen Sihai frowned. "Why did we bring him here?"

"My lord said that this man is the successor of the Sage of Medicine, and his medical skills are extremely high. Perhaps... the island will need him. Also..." the subordinate whispered, "My lord suspects that he may be a remnant of the Dragon Gate Society, so he wants to take this opportunity to eliminate him."

Chen Sihai chuckled and said, "Then let's go together. There are many ways to make him 'accidentally die'."

At this moment, the secretary knocked on the door and said, "Chairman Chen, a doctor named Wang Jiuzhen has come. He says he's here to apply for the position of team doctor."

Chen Sihai and the others exchanged glances, all somewhat incredulous.

What a coincidence!

"Please come in."

Wang Tian walked in wearing a blue robe and carrying a medicine box, looking completely harmless.

"Hello, Chairman Chen." Wang Tian clasped his hands in greeting. "I heard that you are going to Penglai Immortal Island and need a doctor to accompany you, so I volunteered."

"I've long heard of Dr. Wang's excellent medical skills," Chen Sihai said with a smile. "However, this mission is very dangerous. Isn't Dr. Wang afraid?"

"Saving lives is urgent," Wang Tian said calmly. "In addition, there is a sea lingzhi mushroom on Penglai Immortal Island that I am very interested in picking a few of."

Chen Sihai gave Wang Tian a deep look, then burst into laughter: "Good! What audacity! If Dr. Wang can join our expedition team, we will give you generous rewards."

"Thank you, Chairman Chen."

As soon as Wang Tian left, Chen Sihai's face darkened: "Tell Ghost Face that a fish has taken the bait."

"Yes," the subordinate replied. "And what about Chen Dahai and his daughter? They've met with Wang Jiuzhen; could they have ruined everything?"

Chen Sihai made a throat-slitting gesture, "Make it clean for me."

That evening, a group of men dressed in black sneaked into the residential area where Chen Dahai lived.

Chen Dahai and his daughter were not there; the house was empty except for a note that read: "Thank you for your concern. We've gone on vacation out of town."

"Damn it! They got away!" the leader of the men in black yelled. "Search them! They couldn't have gone far!"

Meanwhile, Xiao Hao had already made arrangements for Chen Dahai and his daughter, sending them to a safe place.

Inside the clinic, Wang Tian was packing his things, preparing to go up the mountain.

Ice Soul Needles, various potions, and some special tools.

Finally, he put away the token of the Dragon Gate Society headquarters.

Outside the window, dark clouds loomed over the city, threatening to crush it; a storm was brewing.

The final battle will begin in three days.

Early morning, high tide.

At the East China Sea port, a medium-sized research vessel named "Exploration" slowly sailed away from the port.

The inspection team organized by the Sihai Group consisted of 23 people, 20 of whom were members of the Dark Palace in disguise, while the other 3 were genuine scholars.

Wang Tian was placed in a single room on the second floor.

He put his luggage away and went up to the deck.

The sea breeze howled, fluttering his clothes.

Penglai Island is visible in the distance, and even in broad daylight, one can faintly see the blue light emanating from it.

"Dr. Wang, you're up so early."

Wang Tian turned around and saw a man in his thirties, wearing glasses and with a refined demeanor, named Zhou Ming, who was the deputy captain of the expedition team.

Wang Tian nodded: "Deputy Captain Zhou."

"Dr. Wang, this trip may take three or four days." Zhou Ming laughed and said, "Life on the island is tough. If anyone falls ill or gets injured, we'll have to rely on you, Dr. Wang."

"Of course." Wang Tian looked Zhou Ming up and down and felt that the man had a steady aura and slightly bulging temples. He was obviously a martial artist, but he disguised it very well.

"By the way, what does Doctor Wang know about Penglai Immortal Island?" Zhou Ming asked seemingly casually.

Wang Tiandao said, "Not many, but I've heard there are some rare medicinal herbs there. Deputy Captain Zhou, have you been there?"

"I've been there once." Zhou Ming's eyes flickered. "It's a... very magical place, if I remember correctly. We'll have the answer when Dr. Wang arrives."

After talking for a while, Zhou Ming took his leave.

Wang Tian glanced at him, a cold smile appearing on his lips.

This week, Ming's cultivation level is at least above the Transformation Realm, making him no ordinary person.

Two hours later, Penglai Island was within reach.

As they drew closer, the entire island was enveloped in a faint blue light.

What's even stranger is that the seawater near the island is also blue, and ships leave a blue trail when they pass by.

"We've arrived." The captain of the ship was a dark-skinned middle-aged man surnamed Li, who also came from the Dark Palace.

The research vessel docked at the natural pier, where three black cargo ships were already waiting—the same scene Wang Tian had witnessed that night.

The group disembarked and landed on the island.

Wang Tian stepped onto the black volcanic rock, and the jade pendant on his chest heated up again.

He suppressed his discomfort and looked around at his surroundings.

A temporary camp has been set up on the island, and dozens of men in black robes are busy at work.

A man dressed in a black robe walked over; it was Ghost Face.

"Welcome." Ghost Face's hoarse voice rang out. "Zhou Ming, take everyone to the tents to rest. Doctor Wang, please come with me."
