Chapter 247: Chapter 22 Success is Achieved [2 in 1]_2 Chapter 247: Chapter 22 Success is Achieved [2 in 1]_2 “Damn…”

Feng Yin blurted out unconsciously.

He’s seen close to a hundred men now, yet they say there are only twelve…

The disparity is just too big.

No wonder the Yan Army was halted by Marshal Ma Daocheng and Ma Daogong. With their secretive behavior, Feng Yin almost suspects that Marshal Ma is playing them…

It looks like Marshal Ma is most likely an old player on the Langya list!

The moment Feng Yin sat down by the bed and put his hand on Ma Daocheng’s pulse, the atmosphere around them became subtle again.

The exposed part of his neck felt mysteriously cold, giving him a chilly feeling.

Under the martial artist’s crisis sensing, Feng Yin glanced and saw that none of the twenty-four burly men seemed to be looking at him directly.

However, his neck was clearly feeling the chill of twenty-four unseen swords, looping around him.

From the corner of his eye, he saw each and every one of them moving back and forth on his neck.

Obviously, these guys were worried about the health of the marshal, praying that the doctor could heal him; but if this doctor had ill intentions, the moment he made a move, twenty-four invisible swords would simultaneously fall, slicing him into pieces.

“One of the reasons why my name has only been passed around among the common folk is that I rarely treat these important figures,” Feng Yin said, eyes closed, as he placed his fingers on the patient’s pulse. “In a doctor’s eyes, life is life, precious regardless of status, a gift from the heavens to all living things. Yet, in the eyes of most, there’s a hierarchy to life. Those at the bottom are disregarded, while those at the top unreachable. Treating a commoner, I can act without hindrance, solely focused on medicine. But treating a higher-up, I must tread carefully. Even heavy medicine is hard to administer, let alone something like tiger and wolf concoction. The reason is simple, it’s too dangerous, random accidents could cost me my life… If it wasn’t for the favor I owed to Heavenly Clothes Kong Gaohan, why would I put myself in this deadly vortex, here as well as at Tiandang Mountain.”

He paused, then added: “Beware of personal debts, they’re the hardest to repay. You might lose everything you have. Luckily, I’ve repaid my debt to Kong Gaohan here. From now on, I’ll try not to get myself involved in such situations again.”

Many of the people around turned red after hearing these words.

Only Lv Yun Cheng, who was huddled by the door, spoke out loud, “This is unavoidable. These so-called important figures bear the heavy responsibility of millions of people; everything they do impacts people’s livelihood. Without such protection, wouldn’t the lives of our country’s important figures be at the mercy of a doctor from the enemy country?”

Feng Yin nodded and smiled, “Indeed, the lives of those in power are truly different, priceless.”

After feeling the pulse, he looked confident and relaxed.

“Doctor, what do you think?”

Everyone asked, their voices full of anticipation.

“There’s nothing to fear, it can be treated,” Feng Yin said calmly.

“Boom!”

The entire tent boiled with excitement at Feng Yin’s words. The dark cloud that had hung over the heads of the people for days suddenly dispersed. The tent was filled with cheers and laughter.

Ever since Marshal Ma was injured, countless doctors had examined him, none of whom could figure out how to treat him.

With a marshal who holds the heavy responsibility of an army and border defense comatose and no cure found, every soldier felt as if they had a heavy stone pressing on their hearts.

Now, finally, a doctor confidently stated: it can be treated!

How could such words not elate the men? Many generals shed tears of joy.

The general who had been maintaining the army almost fainted with relief.

He had truly experienced the burden of leading an army in those few days. The enormous pressure was not something that could be described by the words ‘respect and heavy responsibility’. It was an indescribable pressure of life.

A single decision could affect the lives and glory of a million soldiers; as well as the future well-being of at least tens of thousands of families.

On one hand, he needed to guard against an attack from a famous marshal leading a million-strong army across the continent; on the other hand, he had to look after the army and fend off opposition from within the country…

Although he had only been in charge for a few days, he felt completely wiped out. Sometimes when he faced the trusting eyes from the soldiers below, he found it hard to breathe.

Upon hearing that the marshal’s life could be saved, the burden on his shoulders seemed to finally lighten. He took a deep breath, sweating heavily, feeling as if he had just recovered from a major illness.

Finally, he was free.

“We request the doctor use his brilliant skills to save our marshal.”

All the generals bowed in unison.

“No need for such formality, I came here to save lives, or why else would I risk coming here?” Feng Yin stood confidently, “The atmosphere here is quite chaotic. Let everyone else leave. And yes, fetch me two bowls of honey mixed with spiritual water.”

Soon, the honey water was prepared and delivered.

“We all have to leave?”

For the first time, Lv Yun Cheng seemed insecure, and others looked reluctant too. If we all leave, and you harm the marshal, what then?

All of them hesitated, their eyes filled with distrust.
