Chapter 2299: The winner is decided

“Uh…”

The people present nearly choked on their own saliva. What about the promised furious rage? What about drawing swords and slaying? How did he just kneel?

Could it be that this Young man really healed Fu Chunqiu’s injuries? But how was that possible? That was an injury to the Sea of Consciousness!

If the person in front of them wasn't a Dongxu Stage expert, and if Iron Sword Scholar hadn't been famous throughout Tianqiong State, everyone would probably have thought that Ye Bufan had hired a shill.

For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded, unable to accept the situation before them.

Ge Yangming’s smile also froze. This was clearly a result he had not anticipated.

Ye Bufan stood there with a calm expression, not stopping him. He absolutely deserved Fu Chunqiu’s bow.

If he hadn't acted, it would have taken Ge Yangming at least three years to heal Fu Chunqiu's Sea of Consciousness injury.

And during those three years, his cultivation would have continuously regressed, making it uncertain if he could even maintain his Dongxu Stage.

For a Cultivator, cultivation regression was absolutely unacceptable, and what followed would be endless pursuit and assassination by enemies.

From this perspective, he not only healed his injury but also saved his life.

Fu Chunqiu finished kneeling and stood up, looking at the people present with an excited expression.

“Everyone, Dr. Ye is truly a Divine Doctor! My Sea of Consciousness injury was healed so quickly, and my Mental Energy has even improved. It won’t be long before I can break through to Dongxu Great Perfection.

Before, Medical Saint Ge took a month to stabilize my injury and said it would take at least three years for complete healing, without even guaranteeing my cultivation.

Now, Divine Doctor Ye only took ten breaths of time. Everyone can naturally see who is superior and who is inferior.”

As an Old Jianghu who had lived for hundreds of years, he naturally knew what he should do now, which was to prove Ye Bufan's Medical skill.

Moreover, Ge Yangming’s arrogance during this time had truly made him feel unhappy. After all, he was a Late Stage Dongxu expert.

That Old thing actually treated him like a carriage driver, ordering him around all day without any respect.

Before, in order to treat his injury, he had no choice but to endure, but now he no longer needed to.

After speaking, Fu Chunqiu’s Aura suddenly erupted, rising steadily, and in an instant, he returned to the Late Stage Dongxu.

“This…”

Although everyone found it hard to believe, the fact was right before them; his cultivation was genuine.

“Oh my goodness, is this young doctor’s Medical skill really that amazing? This is simply a Medical Immortal…”

“The Medical Saint took three years to treat him and couldn’t even guarantee his cultivation, while he only took ten breaths of time and even improved his cultivation. Damn, the difference is too great, isn’t it?”

“That Young man wasn’t arrogant; he truly had the ability. He’s even more formidable than the Tianqiong Medical Saint…”

After a moment of silence, the scene erupted in an uproar, and everyone once again sided with Ye Bufan.

In the Cultivation World, strength is revered, and this is not only reflected in martial arts but also in the medical Dao. His Medical skill absolutely deserved everyone's respect.

Zhao Huiying, Xiaoyao King, and Feng Bailian exchanged glances, seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.

The reason they had wanted to act against Ye Bufan earlier was entirely to curry favor with the Tianqiong Medical Saint.

After all, as Cultivators, everyone had unforeseen needs, and who knew when they might get injured and need his help.

But now, the Medical skill this Young man displayed had surpassed Ge Yangming, which immediately caused a shift in the hearts of the three Old Jianghu.

If one had high Medical skill and the other low, one was young and the other old, even a fool would know who to curry favor with.

However, they were all cunning individuals and would not rush to express their stance; they would continue to observe.

Nevertheless, regarding the current struggle, they no longer held any position and would not proactively stand out to help the Tianqiong Medical Saint.

When the surrounding crowd quieted down a bit, Fu Chunqiu spoke again: “From today onward, Divine Doctor Ye is my great benefactor. To be his enemy is to be my enemy, and I, Fu, will certainly fight them to the death.”

After speaking, he bowed to Ye Bufan again, “Divine Doctor Ye, from now on, I, Fu, will be at your command. I will go through fire and water, and will not hesitate to die!”

Ye Bufan waved his hand casually: “No need, it’s just a small matter. Besides, I am a doctor; healing and saving lives is my duty.”

“Divine Doctor Ye is a person of noble character, but I, Fu, will certainly repay this kindness. I have some minor matters to attend to, but I will surely come to repay the Divine Doctor’s great kindness in due time.”

With that, Fu Chunqiu bowed for the third time and then vanished from everyone’s sight in an instant.

He left, but the matter was not over. Everyone’s gaze once again focused on Ge Yangming.

One must know that Ye Bufan’s move just now was equivalent to publicly slapping the Tianqiong Medical Saint’s face hard.

Ge Yangming was indeed an Old Jianghu. His expression changed slightly, but quickly returned to normal.

He looked at Ye Bufan: “Young man, you truly have some ability. You are worthy of challenging this Old thing. In that case, I will have a good competition with you.”

He said these words lightly, deflecting the blow and directly neutralizing the advantage Ye Bufan had just gained, while also placing himself in a superior position.

Although the opponent had just performed astonishingly, he was only worthy of challenging him.

Ye Bufan smiled faintly, not speaking. At this moment, everything depended on strength; no matter how flashy the words, they were useless.

Ge Yangming continued: “Tell me, what do you want to compete with this Old thing on?”

“Anything, as long as it’s Medical skill, I can crush you in everything!”

Ye Bufan seemed casual, but his words were incredibly domineering.

The people present were silent. If it had been before, it would have certainly drawn endless ridicule, but now everyone’s mindset had changed.

Just based on the skill he had just displayed, they had no right to mock him. Who knew, he might truly possess that ability.

“It’s good for a Young man to have confidence, but being too arrogant is not good.”

Ge Yangming still maintained the demeanor of a Senior master, “In that case, let’s compete in healing injuries. There are ready-made patients right here.”

With that, he raised his hand and pointed to the side, where the twenty injured Golden Blade Guards were lying on the ground, grimacing.

“We two will compete in treating their injuries.”

He then looked at Zhao Huiying beside him, “Chief, since it’s a competition, there must be a winner. Please act as our witness.”

Among the people present, although Xiaoyao King was a prince, Zhao Huiying today represented the imperial family, with the Emperor behind her, making her the highest-ranking person.

“Alright, this Old Servant is willing to be the witness.”

Zhao Huiying agreed with a smile, then her figure flickered and she appeared before the two of them.

“Medical Saint, how shall we compete?”

“There are a total of twenty injured individuals here. We will both treat them, and whoever treats the most and achieves the best results will be the winner.”

At this point, Ge Yangming showed a proud expression: “But no matter what, I am still a Senior. Competing like this is a bit unfair.

How about this, I’ll give him ten breaths of time, and I’ll start after ten breaths.”

Ye Bufan looked at him with a cold smile. This was truly a cunning old fox.

On the surface, he presented himself as noble and upright, but in reality, he had been harboring his own little scheme from the very beginning.

Seeing that he was more proficient in treating Mental Energy damage, he immediately proposed treating external injuries.

Generally speaking, not every doctor is omnipotent; they all have their own specialized Domain. If one is good at healing the Sea of Consciousness, it is difficult to also be good at treating the Physical Body.

It’s just a pity that the other party miscalculated. He was a Medical Immortal who had obtained the Ancient Medical Sect Legacy, not an ordinary doctor.
