Chapter 222: Two hundred and twenty-one, Ghost Doctor Sect

The Ghost Doctor Sect was located in the Wild Man Valley region. As the plane slowly descended, a vast private estate appeared before everyone’s eyes.

Two young men dressed in black long robes with a skull pattern embroidered on the shoulders came forward to meet them.

"Welcome to the Ghost Doctor Sect! Please, come inside," the two men said with emotionless expressions, gesturing for the guests to enter.

Among the three sects participating in the medical competition, the Ghost Doctor Sect had consistently ranked first in every contest, with Medicine Valley coming in just after, and only the Divine Doctor Family was perpetually at the bottom. Therefore, they couldn’t help but look down on the Divine Doctor Family.

The two disciples led Luo Shu and the others along the corridor and down the quiet bluestone path, passing various uniquely shaped rockeries, until a small courtyard in the Qing Dynasty style appeared before them.

In the courtyard bloomed plum blossoms, their radiant beauty and the rich fragrance intoxicating to those who smelled them.

"This will be your lodging. There are many restricted areas within the Ghost Doctor Sect; we hope you won’t wander around." After speaking, the two disciples of the Ghost Doctor Sect left without looking back.

"What kind of attitude is that? We’re guests, after all! Who treats their guests like this?"

"Once we win the competition, let’s see if they dare to treat us this way."

"Exactly, what’s so great about them!" the group said, bristling with indignation.

"Everyone, go choose your rooms!" Luo Xiuyi said with a stern face, waving his hand at the crowd.

The attitude of those two disciples from the Ghost Doctor Sect reminded him of the competition twenty years ago. At that time, he was about the same age as these family scions, somewhat arrogant and full of himself. It wasn’t until he was repeatedly defeated by disciples from the Ghost Doctor Sect and Medicine Valley that he realized the medical skills he prided himself on were actually quite ordinary.

Because of that, he was determined to win a place for the Divine Doctor Family in the next competition. However, as circumstances changed, his bone-deep emotions caused him to close off his heart.

This time, it was his daughter marching into battle for the Divine Doctor Family, and he hoped that she could achieve a brilliant success and alter the Divine Doctor Family’s continuous losing streak.

Looking in Luo Shu’s direction, he saw her chatting and laughing with Lu Hanmo, completely unaffected by the earlier incident, a relieved smile spreading across his face. Since her return to the family, she’d brought about changes time and again; he hoped this time would be no different.

Luo Shu felt Luo Xiuyi’s gaze and met it with a smile of her own. This time, she would certainly redeem their honor, making those who looked down on the Divine Doctor Family see their true worth.

Meanwhile, another group clothed in white robes, ethereal and otherworldly, was being led by the disciples of the Ghost Doctor Sect towards them.

Compared to their attitude towards the Divine Doctor Family, the Ghost Doctor Sect disciples were clearly more pleasant this time, at least wearing faint smiles on their faces.

"So this is where the Divine Doctor Family is staying? It’s really too small!"

"They only deserve to stay here, given that they’re always at the bottom in every competition."

"If I were them, I’d be too ashamed to participate. What’s the point of losing every time?"

"Their medical skills? They’re hardly different from those itinerant physicians outside."

"You’re speaking the plain truth, haha..." The group laughed and talked as they followed the Ghost Doctor Sect disciples to another large courtyard.

"They’re just bullying us too much! Let me go, I need to teach them a lesson," Luo Qianqing fumed, glaring at the departing figures. Had it not been for Luo Yan holding him back, he would have charged forward to argue with those mocking disciples from Medicine Valley.

"We’re here to compete in healing, not to fight with anger. Instead of getting angry here, it’s better to go back to our rooms and cultivate. Tomorrow during the competition, we’ll strike back at them," Luo Shu said indifferently to Luo Qianqing and the angry young members of the family.

The reason why Ghost Doctor Sect and Medicine Valley were able to defeat them was that the opponent’s needle technique required the use of Vigor Fortune Needle. Although the Divine Doctor Family’s Spiritual Pivot Seven-Star Needle is the same, because the Divine Doctor Family only practiced ordinary Ancient Martial Arts Techniques, they did not bring out the full effect of the Spiritual Pivot Seven-Star Needle.

That was also why when she initially treated her godmother she had to add Spiritual Spring, but this time when treating Aunt Zhang, she only needed to use the Silver Needle.

In this period, the family’s younger generation had made some progress in cultivation. Even if they could not bring out the full effect of the Spiritual Pivot Seven-Star Needle, achieving half of it should not be a problem.

Upon hearing these words, everyone felt a bit ashamed and at the same time, their fighting spirit was ignited by Luo Shu.

After apologizing to Luo Shu, they all headed back to their rooms.

In a pavilion above a small pond in the distance, two men were sitting and drinking tea.

The two sat facing each other, as if from two different worlds—a man in white, Mo Xie, who was reserved, proud, and noble; the man in black, Fang Hengshan, was unrestrained, enchanting, and wild.

"That little girl is quite interesting. Maybe the Divine Doctor Family will indeed bring us a surprise this time," Fang Hengshan muttered, his sexy lips curled up with a bewitching arc, soul-stirring and captivating.

Mo Xie carelessly twirled the White Jade teacup in his hand, the corners of his cool lips slightly lifted, withdrawing his gaze to watch the little fish playfully swimming in the pond, "Let’s hope!"

The competition was scheduled for nine o’clock the next morning.

Early in the morning, Luo Shu and the others took the carriage arranged by the Ghost Doctor Sect and arrived at the nearby town.

The competition was to take place in a medical hall in the town, which was also one of the assets owned by Ghost Doctor Sect.

After getting off the carriage, Luo Shu and the others were led into the back hall of the medical hall.

The back hall was divided into the competition area and the guard district, with paper strips marking the names of the three groups in the guard district.

Before the disciples of Ghost Doctor Sect and Medicine Valley arrived for the competition, Luo Shu and her group had already reached the area marked with their family name and seated themselves.

After a short wait, disciples of the Ghost Doctor Sect, dressed in black long robes, walked in.

No sooner had the disciples of Ghost Doctor Sect settled down than the disciples of Medicine Valley entered closely behind.

Once everyone was seated, the Divine Doctor Family, Medicine Valley, and Ghost Doctor Sect each sent two elders as judges for the competition.

The shopkeeper of the medical hall entered with three patients and said to those present, "The conditions of these three patients are similar. To ensure fairness, we will now draw lots to decide which patient each group will treat."

These three patients were carefully selected by the medical hall for the competition. Since they were told that the treatment would be free of charge, they were all very willing to cooperate.

The Medical Hall Shopkeeper took out three pieces of paper with numbers, handed them to the judges’ bench to confirm there was no mistake, then folded them into similar-sized lots for the three parties to draw.
