Chapter 248 Kneel Down and That's It?
Zhao Tianhao suddenly grabbed the Great Elder's sleeve, his face full of unwillingness. "Great Elder, do you have no solution either?"
The Great Elder shook his head.
Zhao Tianhao could not accept this fact, and became frantic. "No, no, no, you are the Great Elder of the Medicine King's Mansion, with superb medical skills, you must have a way! You must have a way!"
Zhao Jing, with a face full of worry, said anxiously, "Great Elder, please think of a way."
The Great Elder shook his head again and said decisively, "I am also human, and I am powerless against some symptoms."
At the same time, he was also a little curious, who exactly had such divine means?
Zhao Jing and Zhao Tianhao were both unwilling and pleaded desperately with the Great Elder, but were eventually stopped by Zhao Bokang.
He sighed deeply and persuaded Zhao Jing and Zhao Tianhao, "The Great Elder has done his best, we can only try other methods."
As soon as he said this, Zhao Jing and Zhao Tianhao turned pale.
If even the Great Elder couldn't cure the illness, who could?
Was Chen Xuan's prediction correct, that no one but him could cure it?
"Perhaps, there is one more way."
The Great Elder's heart stirred, and he suddenly spoke.
"What way? As long as you can help me recover my internal energy, I'm willing to pay any amount of money!" Zhao Tianhao was like a drowning man grasping at a straw.
"Let the person who sealed your dantian make a move!"
Meeting everyone's expectant gaze, the Great Elder said indifferently.
Zhao Jing and Zhao Tianhao immediately looked ashen, their hands and feet turning cold.
Did they really have to beg Chen Xuan?
"Who is so cruel! Don't let me encounter them, otherwise, I will tear them to pieces!" Zhao Bokang gritted his teeth, his anger soaring.
Hearing this, a flicker of light returned to Zhao Tianhao's dim eyes, and he slapped his thigh and shouted, "I have a way, I have a way!"
"En?" Zhao Bokang frowned.
Zhao Tianhao shouted, "The person who sealed my dantian is from the Medicine King's Mansion! This person is a heinous criminal. Great Elder, please uphold justice for me!"
"Someone from the Medicine King's Mansion?"
Zhao Bokang was stunned, and his face suddenly darkened. "Xiao Hao, our Medicine King's Mansion has a clear regulation that anyone from the Medicine King's Mansion is not allowed to act recklessly outside. Tell me who that person is, and the Great Elder will definitely uphold justice for you!"
Hearing this, Zhao Tianhao's face showed a sinister smile.
Chen Xuan, oh Chen Xuan, you may have powerful means, but before the Great Elder of the Medicine King's Mansion, you are nothing!
"I wonder who in our Medicine King's Mansion it is?" The Great Elder also frowned, showing a hint of suspicion.
A cold glint flashed in Zhao Tianhao's eyes, and he spat out a name: "Chen Xuan of the Medicine King's Mansion!"
Ah?
Zhao Bokang was immediately stunned, and the Great Elder was also dumbfounded.
"You mean Chen Xuan?" The Great Elder's expression was strange.
Zhao Tianhao nodded, "It's that bastard!"
Seeing Zhao Tianhao admit it, Zhao Bokang's heart sank.
He inwardly cursed himself, "It's over!"
At this moment, Chen Xuan strode in.
He saw the cars outside and knew that the Zhao family had invited someone over. He said with a playful smile, "I wonder what divine doctor your Zhao family invited?"
Zhao Tianhao looked up and saw Chen Xuan, a sinister smile playing on his lips. "Heh heh, a divine doctor from the Medicine King's Mansion!"
Chen Xuan's gaze shifted, and he was slightly surprised to see the Great Elder. He hadn't expected the Great Elder to be here. However, seeing Zhao Bokang beside him, he immediately understood that Zhao Bokang had invited the Great Elder.
He said with a faint smile, "Great Elder, I didn't expect to have disturbed you!"
"I was also invited by Honored Guest Zhao," the Great Elder cupped his hands.
Zhao Tianhao pointed at Chen Xuan and shouted, "Chen Xuan, how dare you laugh? Great Elder, it's him! It's this guy who sealed my dantian with silver needles. You mustn't let him off lightly!"
The Great Elder's gaze turned to Honored Guest Zhao and he said indifferently, but with an imposing presence. "Honored Guest Zhao, Elder Chen is benevolent and kind. I believe he wouldn't cause trouble for them for no reason. Your relative dared to offend Elder Chen, shouldn't you manage it?"
"If you can't manage it, I can do it for you, provided that you must leave the Medicine King's Mansion!"
Zhao Bokang was slightly taken aback.
He knew that this was all Zhao Tianhao's fault, but the Great Elder was impartial. Now, without distinguishing right from wrong, he was putting pressure on him. The Great Elder seemed to value Chen Xuan too much, considering that the Great Elder represented the attitude of the Medicine King's Mansion.
At this moment, he felt that he had underestimated Chen Xuan's status in the Medicine King's Mansion.
"Hurry up and apologize to Elder Chen!"
Zhao Bokang was decisive and immediately reprimanded.
"Ah?"
Zhao Tianhao was stunned. "Uncle, it was clearly this guy who harmed me! Why should I apologize?"
Zhao Jing was also shocked. She hadn't expected that even the Great Elder of the Medicine King's Mansion would defend Chen Xuan this time. Where did this guy get so much influence?
"Shut up! Do you not know what you did? I reminded you that night, but you didn't listen, and you even went to trouble Elder Chen. Now you're reaping what you sow!"
Zhao Bokang roared.
That night, he had seen Zhao Tianhao's sarcastic remarks towards Chen Xuan. He could guess with his toes that it was because Zhao Tianhao had angered Chen Xuan that Chen Xuan had resorted to such measures.
He had some doubts initially, but that last bit of concern was dispelled by the Great Elder's attitude.
Now, he could only make Zhao Tianhao apologize to Chen Xuan, otherwise, he would be finished!
"I..."
Zhao Tianhao was choked with emotion.
"Xiao Hao, quickly kneel down and apologize to him! Only he can restore your internal energy!"
Zhao Jing's mind raced, and she immediately understood the gravity of the situation. There was only this path left.
"I am the young master of the Zhao family, a genius of the first tier in Central Plains Province. How can I apologize to a live-in son-in-law?"
Zhao Tianhao hesitated, his face full of unwillingness.
"Shut up! If you don't kneel and apologize, you won't be a genius, but a cripple! You won't get even half of the Zhao family's assets!" Zhao Jing was furious. It was truly disappointing that Zhao Tianhao was still thinking about his reputation at this point.
Did he not know that all his fame was due to his strength?
If he lost his strength, he would be nothing. Not to mention his reputation, his status in the Zhao family would plummet!
"I'll kneel down and apologize to you!"
Zhao Tianhao trembled, fear appearing on his face. His legs felt as if they were filled with lead, and he walked heavily to Chen Xuan. "I'm sorry..."
As he spoke, Zhao Tianhao bent his legs and with a thud, knelt before Chen Xuan.
"Is that good enough now?" Zhao Tianhao gritted his teeth.
Chen Xuan chuckled, "Zhao Tianhao, I never said that if you kneel and apologize, I will cure your illness."
Zhao Tianhao was stunned.
"Chen Xuan, what do you mean? Are you going back on your word?" Zhao Jing asked.
Chen Xuan smiled faintly, "Miss Zhao, you probably forgot what I said before. I said that if the Zhao family begged me to see a doctor again, the Zhao family would have to raise the stakes!"
Zhao Tianhao's face was full of shame and anger. He really wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
He, the dignified young master of the Zhao family, had to kneel and apologize to someone, and that person still thought it was not enough.
"You name your price, but if it's too much, my Zhao family won't be able to satisfy you," Zhao Jing's face darkened.
