The World's Number One Medical Hall

Chapter 160 The Medical Clinic

Are you satisfied with this result?

Qi Hanshan invited a large number of heroes today, including Mr. Du. He set up an incense altar and offered a sacrificial ceremony to his long sword in front of his own door. Under the watchful eyes of countless people, he gave a command and, in broad daylight, heads rolled in...

Mo Bai was neither stupid nor arrogant. How could he really believe that such a grand scene was merely a show put on to give him an explanation? If Mo Bai really had that much influence, would this whole thing even need to happen today?

What happened today was naturally somewhat unexpected for Mo Bai.

Qi Hanshan's reaction to everything that happened today was different from what he had expected.

Logically, after such an incident, Qi Hanshan's first action should have been to investigate the cause and effect. If Mo Bai had been killed directly, implicating Master Qi and ultimately being buried with him, then it would be understandable that Qi Hanshan, in his fury and rage, would have killed him without regard for anything else.

But now it's clearly not the case. Mo Bai was ultimately unharmed, but Qi Hanshan still didn't care about anything and just killed him first. In fact, when Doctor Zhu was brought out, Mo Bai had already observed him carefully. Although Doctor Zhu was in a sorry state, he didn't look like he had been severely interrogated. Moreover, the way he kept struggling to speak and defend himself clearly indicated that the case had not yet been investigated and closed.

Most importantly, judging from the timeline, he was arrested around the same time as Mo Bai, which is enough to show that almost as soon as the news of Mo Bai's accident reached the Qi family, the Qi family went to arrest him without saying a word, and there was no time for interrogation.

However, Qi Hanshan had already made his move, clearly having decided to kill them long ago. He didn't even give them a chance to explain; with a single command, he ruthlessly took their lives.

Mo Bai couldn't figure out why Qi Hanshan would act this way, but he had a vague explanation in his heart.

That is to say, everything Qi Hanshan did today, from beginning to end, was an undisguised declaration to everyone: "Anyone who dares to oppose the Qi family will suffer this fate!"

Mo Bai's mind raced. It was clear that no matter what Qi Hanshan was thinking, this outcome was certainly good for him.

It can be said that Qi Hanshan's move completely resolved the Long Knife Society issue for him and also put an end to Doctor Zhu's life.

This essentially resolved his predicament after arriving in Mingzhu, and saved him the trouble of confronting Doctor Zhu and the others that he had originally planned. There couldn't be a better outcome.

Mo Bai glanced briefly at Qi Hanshan, hesitated for a moment, but felt he should still test the waters. He quickly shook his head and sighed, "Mr. Qi, please don't say that. If it weren't for your esteemed family saving my life, I'm afraid I wouldn't be sitting here talking to you right now. I'm so grateful, how could I dare to have any complaints? You flatter me!"

"Haha, Dr. Bai, there's no need to be so polite!" Upon hearing Mo Bai's words, Qi Hanshan laughed heartily.

It's clear that Qi Hanshan wasn't depressed after this incident; on the contrary, after the fighting, he seemed to have released his worries and frustrations of the past few days, and was in a great mood.

Lacking information, Mo Bai naturally didn't know how angry Qi Hanshan had been. He couldn't even control a mere Doctor Zhu and the Long Knife Society. As the renowned eldest son of the Qi family in the Youth Society, his frustration was indescribable.

And it was precisely because of this that, in a fit of anger, he decided to carry out this killing today, determined to make the entire Youth Society, and even the entire Pearl Province, understand whether the Qi family still had any strength left.

In the end, he successfully invited Mr. Du to come and provide support.

He then made thousands of his brothers witness him kill the Long Knife Society members without giving them a chance to explain.

Several powerful figures sat above, yet none dared to utter a single word of rebuttal; they all remained silent…

It is easy to imagine that Qi Hanshan, who had been suppressed for too long, was finally released today, successfully displaying his majesty and feeling as if he were looking down on the whole world with great pleasure.

After today, whether Qi Hanshan is a tiger or a cat, who will dare to underestimate him? Who will dare to pluck the tiger's tail?

How can one not be happy?

It could even be said that at this moment, he no longer cared why Doctor Zhu and the Long Knife Society dared to be so presumptuous. It was none of his concern. How could such clowns possibly catch his eye?

He stood up, hands behind his back, gazing into the distance. His demeanor was calm, yet tinged with undisguised arrogance. He said, "To be honest, your fright this time was due to the Qi family's inadequate precautions. Our Qi family has always been cautious in its management and conduct, never easily provoking trouble. We are always discreet, and therefore we did not expect anyone to deliberately make things difficult for us. However, fortunately, while our Qi family does not cause trouble, we are not afraid of it either. Since these clowns are so ignorant and insist on courting death, I will let them have their way. Let everyone see what happens to those who offend our Qi family's guests."

At this point, Qi Hanshan turned around with a hint of helplessness and smiled faintly at Mo Bai: "I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Doctor Bai. There's nothing I can do. When you're in the martial world, you're often not in control of your own destiny. I just hope that Doctor Bai won't be bothered by today's events, and please believe me, the Qi family can still protect your safety."

Upon hearing his words, Mo Bai's eyes flickered with emotion.

He finally realized that Qi Hanshan's actions today were really that simple: he was making an example of someone.

It's that simple!

At this moment, Mo Bai was completely certain that his troubles were truly over.

As for Doctor Zhu and the Long Knife Society, to the Qi family, killing them is no big deal.

What reason, what cause, that they dared to harm the physician of the Qi family? They deserved to die!

Mo Bai no longer needed to painstakingly explain to the Qi family, nor did he need to do anything more. Everything ended here.

That's real strength, that's real power!

Looking up at Qi Han Mountain, which stood there as if it could determine the fate of the world, it was hard to describe my feelings at that moment.

But the only thing that is certain is that he was not secretly pleased, nor was he even happy.

However, Mo Bai finally let out a slow breath, and the turmoil in his eyes subsided.

Thankfully, he is Mo Bai!

Although he had gone through many twists and turns, spent a lot of energy and suffered a lot of grievances in order to deal with Dr. Zhu, he finally arrived at this point, only to be met with the nonchalant attitude of the person in front of him.

"Dr. Zhu, so be it!"

Such a contrast can be incredibly influential on someone whose mind is not firm.

Thankfully, he is Mo Bai!

He was not pleased with the destruction of a morally corrupt nobody, nor was he frustrated by his own insignificant and powerless state compared to Qi Hanshan.

He eventually regained his composure, his eyes clearing.

He stood up and smiled at Qi Hanshan, saying, "I am deeply grateful to Mr. Qi for causing such a commotion because of me. Mr. Qi, now that Dr. Zhu is dead, I have a matter I must ask you for help with, though I am ashamed to do so."

"Oh?" Qi Hanshan was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. He turned to look at Mo Bai, then reached out and smiled, "Dr. Bai, what are you saying? Please speak frankly. If it is within my capabilities, then of course I have no objections. Please, let's sit down and talk."

The two exchanged a few polite words.

Sitting down again, Mo Bai gave a bitter smile and said, "Mr. Qi, to be honest, although I survived two assassination attempts today, as you know, my health isn't good, so I'm not necessarily that afraid of death. But as long as I'm alive, I don't want to die. But now that Doctor Zhu is dead..."

Qi Hanshan didn't quite understand what he meant, but after a moment's thought, he said, "Dr. Bai, are you worried that we might encounter danger again?"

"No, no! Mr. Qi, you misunderstand!" Mo Bai shook his head repeatedly, and said with a wry smile, "It's not that I'm afraid of encountering such an attack again. With you here, I'm at ease!"

Upon hearing this, Qi Hanshan smiled and said, "Please just say it."

Mo Bai then said, "Mr. Qi, you are unaware of this. The reason I went to Jishi Medical Clinic to practice medicine was actually out of necessity. I have been ill for the past two years, and my travel expenses have dwindled... Not only are the medicinal herbs I need extremely expensive, but they are also often unavailable at ordinary pharmacies, even if one has the money. When I first met Doctor Zhu, the clinic was able to find all the necessary medicinal herbs, so I made an agreement with Doctor Zhu that all the herbs I needed would be deducted from my consultation fees..."

Qi Hanshan knew some of this information, but not all of it.

Like Master Chu, he had also wondered how Doctor Bai, with such high skills, could end up in such a miserable state.

Only now, as Mo Bai recounted the story, did they finally understand the cause and effect.

Finally, Mo Bai shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "Now that Doctor Zhu's heart was not pure, he has ended up like this. It is a case of 'those who do many evil deeds will surely perish.' But with his death, I am now helpless..."

Qi Hanshan finally understood. He hadn't really thought about the Jishi Medical Hall. Killing Doctor Zhu, dealing with Doctor Zhu's family, property, and other such matters would naturally be handled by others; he didn't need to worry about them anymore. But hearing Mo Bai mention it, he immediately looked up and said, "Dr. Bai, since the Jishi Medical Hall has the medicinal herbs you need, please feel free to take and use them. What's so difficult about that?"

Upon hearing this, Mo Bai shook his head and said, "Since Doctor Zhu is no longer here, the original agreement is naturally null and void. How could I possibly use it at will?"

Qi Hanshan was a little dizzy when he heard this, but he quickly understood that this person was upright and did not covet ill-gotten gains.

That's hard to say; he would like to say it's alright.

But that seemed to make him appear untrustworthy, so he hesitated for a moment before asking, "Dr. Bai, do you have some thoughts on this?"

Mo Bai didn't hesitate and immediately nodded, saying, "I'm new to Mingzhu and I'm a bit confused. In a situation like Doctor Zhu's, what should be done with the Jishi Medical Clinic he left behind?"

Qi Hanshan looked up and saw that Mo Bai's eyes were pure. After a moment of contemplation, he still spoke the truth: "Generally speaking, it should naturally be confiscated. After all, the brothers have worked hard and need a reward."
