Chapter 265: Chapter 265: Sensation Throughout the City

Meanwhile, at the Long Family, one of the Nine Gates of Yandu.

The Long Family Heir, Long Teng, asked with unwillingness, "Divine Doctor Hua, is my son’s leg truly beyond recovery?"

If Qin Chuan knew that the Long Family had sought out Hua Changsheng to examine Long Jieming’s leg, he would definitely laugh and say it was fate.

Hua Changsheng was also deeply frustrated. Previously, there hadn’t been a patient he couldn’t cure, but just this morning, he had failed to heal Ye Tiannan, and merely over an hour had passed before he encountered another patient he couldn’t cure.

He shook his head with a grave expression, "Young Master Long’s condition is extremely strange. There are no injuries to the bones, nor to the meridians. It appears to be a healthy leg and should not lack sensation."

"Even if you brought the world’s top Divine Doctor, I’m afraid the diagnosis would be the same. Perhaps after a while, he might recover on his own."

Upon hearing Hua Changsheng’s words, Long Jieming, lying on the hospital bed, immediately became agitated and burst out angrily, "How is that possible?"

"My legs have clearly lost sensation. How could there be no problems at all? If you can’t cure it, then don’t spout nonsense."

"Dad, the Premium Auction House has an auction at noon, and the final auction item is a special object, a chance given by a Mysterious Doctor."

"You must attend this auction, and be sure to win the opportunity offered by this Mysterious Doctor, or else my legs might truly become useless!"

Hua Changsheng, too angry to contain himself, said irritably, "Even if Lord Tudi himself came, your legs are healthy. That so-called Mysterious Doctor is nothing but a gimmick by the Premium Auction House."

After finishing his words, he stormed off in a rage.

After leaving the Long Family, Hua Changsheng frowned and mumbled to himself, "The Premium Auction House wouldn’t make baseless claims, could it be that there’s indeed a Divine Doctor who can cure all kinds of diseases?"

"Perhaps, I should also try to win the chance to be treated by this Mysterious Doctor. I am not seeking for him to cure someone, but if he is willing to give me some guidance, my medical skills could improve a great deal, couldn’t they?"

"Yes, that’s exactly what I’ll do! I too want the chance offered by the Mysterious Doctor!"

If Hua Changsheng knew that the Mysterious Doctor he was hoping to get guidance from was Qin Chuan, he would probably slap himself hard in the face.

As the Ye Family and Long Family publicly announced their intention to vie for the services of the Mysterious Doctor, the news quickly spread throughout the upper echelons of Yandu society.

"I had thought that the Mysterious Doctor was just a ploy by the Premium Auction to hype up the auction of the Ksitigarbha Sacred Tree, but now that even one of the Nine Gates of Yandu, the Ye Family and Long Family, have declared their participation in the auction, it seems to be true."

"I’m suddenly quite eager to find out just who this Mysterious Doctor is, claiming to be able to cure all sorts of complicated diseases."

"Could this Mysterious Doctor be one of the four Saintly Hands from the National Medical Hall?"

...

For a time, everyone in Yandu, from the Nine Gates down to ordinary prominent families, was talking about this matter.

Even the top-tier powerful families from the cities neighboring Yandu had already arranged for people to attend the auction.

At the same time, at the Murong Family.

Murong Mingyue’s uncle, Murong Jing, was seething with anger as he dialed Manager Huang from the Premium Auction House headquarters.

"Huang Yu, have you lost your mind? To replace the final auction item with a treatment opportunity by the Mysterious Doctor?"

After he got through to Huang Yu’s phone, Murong Jing exploded in a torrent of fury.

Huang Yu, far away at the auction house headquarters, wore a bitter expression. Only after Murong Jing vented did he speak with great helplessness, "Third Master, this is all arranged by Miss Mingyue. After all, she is the chief executive of the auction house, and I really had no say in this matter!"

Upon hearing that it was arranged by Murong Mingyue, Murong Jing grew even more furious.

"Then why didn’t you tell me about this earlier?"

Murong Jing exclaimed angrily, "Do you know who this Mysterious Doctor is? Can he really cure any disease?"

"Now even the Ye Family and Long Family have declared they’ll participate in the auction. Once it’s won by one of these powerful houses and the Mysterious Doctor fails to cure the specified patient, what will happen to the reputation of Premium Auction House?"

Murong Jing bombarded with questions, leaving Huang Yu at a loss for words. He truly felt helpless now; he was just the person in charge at the headquarters of Premium Auction House, these matters were not his to decide!

Still, Murong Jing pushed all the blame onto him. If this matter were mishandled, he too would likely not get off easily.

"What if I void the Mysterious Doctor’s opportunity to operate? Say it was a lapse on our part?"

Huang Yu tentatively suggested.

"Bullshit!"

To Huang Yu’s surprise, Murong Jing became even more enraged and bellowed, "You’ve already publicized this affair far and wide. Besides the Ye Family and Long Family, other wealthy families are aware."

"If you now cancel the final auction item, how will you explain it to those families who came for the Mysterious Doctor?"

Suppressing the frustration in his heart, Huang Yu ventured cautiously, "Third Master, could you perhaps give me a suggestion?"

Murong Jing roared, "Suggestion, suggestion, your mom needs a suggestion!"

After saying so, he hung up the phone angrily.

Hearing the disconnect tone from the receiver, Huang Yu’s face turned extremely sour as he gritted his teeth and said, "If you’ve got the guts, go scold Murong Mingyue, what’s the point of yelling at me?"

Way over at the Murong Family mansion, Murong Jing, after hanging up the phone, flung everything on his desk onto the floor.

"That bitch Murong Mingyue, what the hell is she thinking?"

Murong Jing was furious. If it weren’t for the family business still depending on Murong Mingyue temporarily, he would wish to oust her immediately.

Although he hadn’t secured the inheritance yet, he believed it wouldn’t be long before he could inherit the Murong Family heritage.

Murong Jing continued in a rage, "Once I have full control of the family, I’ll make you marry into the Long Family!"

Meanwhile, as Murong Jing was in his extreme fit, in the VIP room of Premium Auction House’s headquarters.

Murong Mingyue, after receiving a phone call, curled the corners of her mouth up slightly. After hanging up, she looked at Qin Chuan and said, "Murong Jing is nearly going mad, he’s now smashing things in his room."

Qin Chuan said helplessly, "No wonder your grandfather released news of his death. Your Third Uncle really can’t keep his cool. Under these circumstances, shouldn’t he contact you first to get to the bottom of the truth?"

Murong Mingyue replied helplessly, "My Third Uncle indeed isn’t up to the task; he can only resort to petty smarts and lacks any real talent."

"If Grandfather really handed over the position of Family Head to him, I fear it won’t be many years before the Murong Family falls out of the Nine Gates of Yandu."

Suddenly, Qin Chuan asked, "Haven’t you ever considered contending for the inheritance of the Murong Family?"

In his view, except for being a woman, Murong Mingyue fit all the criteria of a powerful heir.

Murong Mingyue shook her head with a wry smile, "After all, I am a woman and will eventually have to marry. If Grandfather really passed on the position of Family Head to me, could the Murong Family still be considered as the Murong Family afterwards?"

Pausing for a moment, she suddenly looked at Qin Chuan with a fervent gaze and spoke, "If I became your woman, Grandfather might actually consider letting me take over the family."

"How about it, would you take pity on a poor girl like me and let me be your woman?"
