Dual-wielding! 100x proficiency, I'll grind my way to godhood!

The next morning, just as dawn broke.

Yan Ci got up early to help Chen Mo get dressed and wash up, her movements gentle and skillful.

Her body was still a little weak, and she could barely walk, but she forced herself to get up and get busy.

Chen Mo let her busy herself and casually asked:

"When will the Imperial Medical Academy begin recruiting renowned doctors from across the land?"

"We're always hiring."

As Yan Ci straightened his collar, she said softly,

"You can sign up anytime, but nobody dares to go."

Chen Mo then asked.

What identification documents are needed for registration?

"Nothing is needed."

Yan Ci thought for a moment.

"Just state your name and background. We're not worried about finding people to take us in, we're worried about finding people who dare to come."

Chen Mo smiled inwardly.

Others dared not go because it was a death trap.

The emperor's ailment is incurable; going there means certain death.

Unless you cuckold the emperor, but that's a dead end.

All the renowned doctors in the entire Dayuan region were trying to avoid him.

But he wasn't afraid.

He only wanted the qualification to enter the palace.

As for getting the emperor's woman pregnant?

Hey.

He has plenty of ways...

However, let's settle the people in front of us first.

Chen Mo reached out and pulled Yan Ci into his arms:

"Would you like to come with me? I'll buy your freedom."

Yan Ci froze, her eyes instantly reddening, and tears streamed down her face.

She nodded vigorously.

"I do!"

With a heavy sob in her voice, she murmured softly:

"Wherever you go, I will go; I will follow you for the rest of my life."

"Come with me, and I'll introduce you to some of my sisters."

Chen Mo gently stroked her long hair.

Although this woman's heart had long since belonged to him, the proper rules and the due respect he deserved still applied.

The two lingered in the room for a long time, and before they knew it, it was evening.

The lobby downstairs was already in complete chaos.

The madam lingered outside the seventh-floor corridor for an entire day, pacing back and forth, her handkerchief nearly torn to shreds.

Yan Ci is the mainstay of Zhaixing Tower, and her biggest source of income.

If she gets taken away, half of her business will collapse!

The guests in the lobby had been up for a whole day and night, and they were all extremely envious.

The immortal Yan Ci, whom they admired and revered, had been occupied by a strange man for a night and was still staying indoors.

The crowd was filled with resentment and kept arguing around the madam.

"Mom! Hurry up and go upstairs to call that boy down!"

"We must not allow him to continue defiling Miss Yanci!"

"Not showing up for a whole day and night, that's outrageous! What kind of behavior is this!"

"If you don't come out, we'll go upstairs and break down the door!"

They shouted threats, but none of them actually dared to make a move.

Last night, everyone witnessed Chen Mo casually using a bottle of medicine to crush Qin San Gongzi, and no one dared to provoke this ruthless man.

Most people simply brought out benches, ate sunflower seeds, and watched the spectacle, waiting for this great show to end.

The madam was caught in a dilemma, with everyone holding her back. In the end, she gritted her teeth, lifted her leg, and rushed up to the seventh floor.

She had a bellyful of questions to ask and was ready to go upstairs to demand an explanation.

But the moment she pushed open the door and saw the scene inside, all her words were swallowed back down.

Chen Mo and Yan Ci sat side by side, dressed neatly and composedly.

Chen Mo put his arm around Yan Ci's waist, their posture intimate.

Yan Ci's face was flushed, her skin was smooth and radiant, her eyes were sparkling, and her whole being was gentle and charming, like a beautiful jade that had been soaked in warm water.

The madam had spent half her life in the brothel and could see through everything at a glance.

Yan Ci has given herself and her heart to him; she is completely his woman now, and what's done is done, there's no going back.

Arguing and making a scene will never get you back.

The only thing that can be salvaged is the money.

The madam instantly hatched a plan.

Since we can't retain our staff, let's fleece them!

Last night she saw it clearly: Chen Mo casually exchanged a bottle of secret medicine for a bidding spot worth 30,000 taels of gold!

One bottle is worth thirty thousand taels!

As soon as the thought crossed her mind, a glint of light flashed in the madam's eyes, and she quickly began to calculate.

Chen Mo remained calm, raised his hand to pour her a cup of tea, and gestured for her to sit down and talk.

The madam sat down and began by showering the woman with compliments.

"Young master, you are truly remarkable! All the nobles and princes of the capital have been pursuing you for years, yet none have won Yan Ci's favor. But you, young master, have found such a wonderful match. Congratulations!"

Chen Mo laughed and casually replied:

"Love at first sight, it just happened naturally."

"Yes, yes, yes, a match made in heaven!"

The madam offered a few flattering words, then immediately changed the subject, her face showing embarrassment.

"But you may not know this, young master, but Yan Ci is the top performer and pillar of our Zhaixing Tower. For the past two years, she's been the sole breadwinner for the tower. Now that she's married you, our business is truly going to be very difficult..."

As she spoke, she picked up a handkerchief and pretended to wipe her eyes.

Not a single tear; it was all an act.

Chen Mo saw through her act but didn't say anything, just watched her perform with a smile.

The madam tentatively began to speak:

"May I ask where you are from, sir?"

"A very far place."

"How far?"

"Far away than you can imagine."

The brothel madam chuckled dryly after being rebuffed and stopped trying to find out more.

Chen Mo spoke calmly, getting straight to the point:

"Perfect timing, I was planning to redeem Yanci from her servitude today."

Under the table, Yan Ci quietly reached out and grabbed his sleeve, feeling both happy and anxious, wanting to persuade him not to spend so much money.

Chen Mo gently squeezed her hand in return, indicating that she should not say anything more.

The madam's expression changed instantly.

She only wanted to take the opportunity to extort some compensation, but she didn't expect the other party to directly redeem her and undermine her foundation!

She immediately crossed her arms, leaned back in her chair, and glanced at Chen Mo with a perfectly controlled tone.

"Young master wants to redeem someone? I'm afraid you don't know the market price. A few days ago, the courtesan next door redeemed herself for a full 20,000 taels of gold, plus two prime shops in the south of the city. Our Yan Ci is the top courtesan in the capital, so her price is naturally much higher."

She deliberately dragged out her words, sizing up Chen Mo, waiting to see him show difficulty and back down.

"That bottle of medicine you had last night is far from enough. I don't recognize you, but you have an extraordinary air about you. I just don't know if your family is wealthy enough."

A faint smile appeared on Chen Mo's lips.

Your judgment of people isn't very accurate.

As soon as he finished speaking, he reached into his pocket and took out a bottle of secret medicine, placing it on the table.

The madam's eyes suddenly lit up.

Chen Mo calmly took out another bottle.

The madam's eyelids twitched wildly; she was both shocked and greedy, but she still tried to remain calm.

The room fell silent instantly; you could hear a pin drop.

Yan Ci held his breath and stared intently at the table.

The madam's eyes widened, her gaze fixed intently on the medicine bottle.

Just then, Chen Mo used both hands to take out two more bottles and neatly placed them on the table.

Four bottles of secret medicine, lined up in a row!

One bottle is worth 30,000 taels of gold, and four bottles together are worth a total of 120,000 taels of gold!

This price is more than enough to redeem a courtesan, let alone buy half of the Star-Picking Tower!

The madam's breathing quickened instantly, her eyes lit up, and she instinctively reached out to grab it.

Just as the madam's hand was about to touch the medicine bottles, Chen Mo gently reached out and pressed down on all the medicine bottles.
