Chapter 276: Old People Become Smart
However, contrary to everyone's expectations, Wu Tianxi did not get angry at Ye Bufan. Instead, he slapped Song Tie and Song Aoshuang several times.
"You scoundrels, who told you to come here and cause trouble? From the first day you joined, I taught you to cultivate virtue through martial arts.
The most important thing for a martial artist is moral conduct. Are you living up to my teachings by doing this?"
The Old Man grew angrier as he spoke, and then landed a few more slaps.
The reason for his great anger, besides believing his disciples and grand-disciples were in the wrong, was primarily that the other party was Ye Bufan.
He learned from Tang Tianyi that this Young man, at less than 20 years old, had already reached the Profound Rank cultivation level, indicating the powerful strength of the sect behind him.
Additionally, Western medicine was helpless against his internal injuries, and in today's society, good Chinese doctors are becoming increasingly rare, with those capable of treating internal injuries being as rare as Phoenix feathers.
He had searched for so many years and only barely found one, so how could he miss the opportunity to treat his internal injuries?
"Master, please calm your anger, it was my mistake…"
"Grandmaster, please calm your anger, the fault is mine this time, I will never dare again…"
Song Tie and Song Aoshuang were still extremely respectful to Wu Tianxi. They had no complaints after being reprimanded and both admitted their mistakes.
Wu Tianxi angrily said, "You scoundrels, what's the use of apologizing to me? Hurry up and apologize to Mr. Ye."
Song Tie said, "I'm sorry, Dr. Ye, I offended you. If you want to punish us, my daughter and I will not say a single word of objection."
Song Aoshuang stood beside him with her head bowed, no longer displaying her previous arrogance and haughtiness.
Wu Tianxi angrily said, "You girl, when did you get such courage to dare to come to someone's door and snatch their thousand-year-old ginseng?
How do I usually teach you? Is learning martial arts meant for bullying the weak?"
Song Aoshuang lowered her head and said, "It's like this, Grandmaster, I saw online that Xinglin Garden had a thousand-year-old yang ginseng, which Dr. Ye bought for 50 million yuan at an auction.
I thought this item would definitely cure your internal injuries, but I didn't have that much money to buy it, so in my desperation, I offended Dr. Ye."
"Alas!"
Wu Tianxi sighed, turned to Ye Bufan and said, "Dr. Ye, it is I, Wu, who has been lax in my daily discipline, and my two unruly disciples have offended Dr. Ye.
However, their conduct is usually upright, and this time they were entirely anxious about my illness. I ask Dr. Ye to be lenient and forgive them this time."
After speaking, he pulled out a bank card

card and said, "Dr. Ye, I, this Old Man, don't have much savings in my life. Here is 20 million, please accept it as a small token of my apology."
At this moment, Tang Tianyi followed up, "Young Brother Ye, President Wu has always been a good friend of mine. His character is upright, and this time was also a misunderstanding. I ask for your understanding."
Ye Bufan also didn't expect Wu Tianxi to humble himself so much. Since the other party had sincerely apologized, he didn't want to dwell on it further.
Additionally, there was another point: the person who put the thousand-year-old yang ginseng up for auction intended to provoke a conflict between himself and the Martial Arts Association.
Since Wu Tianxi took the initiative to humble himself, there was no need for him to let the other party's scheme succeed.
He waved his hand and said, "Alright then, let's consider the matter settled. I don't want the money either; I'm not short of money here at all."
"Thank you, Dr. Ye." Wu Tianxi turned to Song Tie and Song Aoshuang and said, "Dr. Ye is magnanimous. Why aren't you two thanking him quickly?"
"Thank you, Dr. Ye!"
The two bowed to Ye Bufan together.
Ye Bufan turned to look at Qiao Lina beside him, "Did I disappoint you? Hurry up and scram!"
Qiao Lina was indeed extremely disappointed. She didn't expect Wu Tianxi not to take action, but to choose to humble himself instead.
She tilted her neck and said fiercely, "Ye Bufan, don't think you can stand against our Gao Family like this. Just you wait, this matter isn't over."
After speaking, she led her people out of Xinglin Garden in a dejected manner.
After the Gao Family left, Tang Tianyi said, "Dr. Ye, can we speak privately for a moment?"
Ye Bufan also guessed that Tang Tianyi had something to discuss with him, so he directly led the group to the back hall.
Song Tie was indeed tough; he didn't rush to leave for treatment but endured the pain and followed closely behind Wu Tianxi.
After entering, the group sat down, with Song Tie and Song Aoshuang standing beside them.
Tang Tianyi said, "Young Brother Ye, Song Tie was indeed very offensive this time, but this child is someone I've watched grow up since he was little. Although his temper is a bit fiery, his nature is not bad.
This time, he and his daughter were anxious about Old Wu's internal injuries, acting entirely out of filial piety, which is understandable.
He is our Junior after all. You can see he's in a lot of pain. How about you help him with the treatment?"
Having lived for so many years, he was truly an old fox. With a few words, he elevated Ye Bufan to the status of an elder, while conversely referring to the fifty-something-year-old Song Tie as a Junior.
However, this not only resolved the current awkwardness but also helped Song Tie plead his case.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
He was indeed a shrewd operator.
Ye Bufan could also understand that this Old Man meant well and didn't want his relationship with the Jiangnan Martial Arts Association to become too strained, so he nodded and said, "Alright then, come over, and I'll treat you."
Song Tie hesitated a bit. Although this Young man was indeed formidable in skill, he couldn't imagine how good his Medical skill could be.
Wu Tianxi said with a stern face, "What are you standing there for? It's your honor that Dr. Ye is willing to treat your injury. Hurry up and go over."
"Yes, Master."
Song Tie agreed and stepped forward to Ye Bufan. He watched as Ye Bufan placed both hands on his arms, even bracing himself for pain.
But unexpectedly, Ye Bufan simply pulled and pushed, and with a 'crack,' his left forearm, which had been broken into two pieces, reconnected. The bone-piercing pain he felt earlier instantly vanished.
"Uh…"
His eyes widened instantly; this Medical skill was truly too miraculous.
And in that brief moment of stunned surprise, his right arm was also successfully reattached.
Ye Bufan said, "Alright, don't fight with anyone for three days. After three days, you can recover."
Song Tie raised both arms and tried moving them; they were truly fine.
No wonder the Gao Family, with their power, insisted on seeking Ye Bufan for treatment; such Medical skill was simply divine.
Wu Tianxi also watched in continuous amazement. No wonder Tang Tianyi highly praised this Young man; his Medical skill was indeed a divine technique.
"Dr. Ye, I, Song Tie, thank you. My previous actions were wrong."
Song Tie bowed respectfully to Ye Bufan. His previous apology was entirely due to pressure from Wu Tianxi, but this time it was sincere.
Ye Bufan waved his hand, signaling him to step aside, then turned to Tang Tianyi and said, "Old Tang, you came here today for something, didn't you?"
"Indeed, I, this Old Man, came here today with a request."
Tang Tianyi's tone shifted here, and he asked again, "Young Brother Ye, how much do you know about the past of Jiangnan Martial Arts?"
Ye Bufan was slightly startled, knowing that this Old Man would not speak without purpose; his words must have some underlying meaning.
"Old Tang, I am a doctor. I don't know much about martial arts."
Tang Tianyi said, "Then, Young Brother, would you be interested in hearing this Old Man ramble on for a bit, talking about the past of Jiangnan Martial Arts?"
Ye Bufan said, "Since Old Tang is in the mood, then I'll listen attentively."
