Chapter 385: Chapter 385: A Hero Emerges in Youth

Wen Yu saw that he was unwilling to speak, so he tactfully refrained from asking further. Taking another glance at Fang Bai’s retreating figure, he felt somewhat puzzled.

For this event, "Doctor Pavilion" had invited over a thousand guests, the majority of whom were physicians over the age of thirty. There were also some youths in their twenties, but most of these were the junior disciples from various major medical sects. However, the young man just now had not worn any identifying garb from a medical sect, clearly not belonging to any.

"Later, ask the sisters responsible for distributing the invitations to see who invited such a young man," Wen Yu thought for a moment and then bent down to speak to a female "Doctor Pavilion" disciple by his side.

A person who had made a bet with Qian Haoduo and could win didn’t fail to catch Wen Yu’s attention.

Wen Yu was aware of Lin Ruoxue inviting Fang Bai to the "World Chinese Medicine Conference"; however, as a Pavilion Master, he had been preoccupied with various tasks these past few days and had not made the connection between the Fang Bai in front of him and the one Lin Ruoxue had invited.

Out of the four great National Doctors of Huaxia, aside from Huang Tianpeng, the other three were all acquainted with Fang Bai.

Regarding the wager between Fang Bai and Qian Haoduo, although National Doctors like Hua Tianhe, Ren Juedao, and Huang Tianpeng were also full of questions, seeing that even Wen Yu, the Pavilion Master of "Doctor Pavilion," couldn’t get an answer, they simply refrained from asking any further.

"You three take your time; I’ll go ahead," said Qian Haoduo.

Seeing the odd looks from the surrounding guests directed at him made Qian Haoduo uncomfortable, so he didn’t walk with Hua Tianhe and the others. Instead, he squeezed through the throng and hurried towards the "Doctor Pavilion" at the mountain’s summit.

"I’m very curious what kind of bet old Qian made with that Fang Bai, to willingly lose twenty million to him!" Hua Tianhe said, twirling his beard, to Ren Juedao at his side.

"Heh, everyone knows how much old Qian loves his money; those twenty million are like a chunk of his own flesh!" Ren Juedao said with a smile, looking at Qian Haoduo, who was already far away.

"The Jiang Family’s young girl’s illness was truly cured by him; it’s inconceivable! It’s unfortunate that we had something to attend to at that time; otherwise, we could have learned from him," Hua Tianhe said with a look of regret.

Ren Juedao nodded, "Indeed, it’s inconceivable! I always thought Western medicine was superior to Chinese medicine, but after that incident, I realized that Chinese medicine is more magical than I imagined! Now that Fang Bai is attending the ’World Chinese Medicine Conference,’ it’s a perfect opportunity to learn from him!"

Last time, when Jiang Xiaoyu from the Jiang Family was diagnosed with breast cancer, Hua Tianhe and Ren Juedao were invited to participate in the treatment. Fang Bai also expressed his willingness to treat Jiang Xiaoyu, but the Jiang Family gently declined.

At that time, the two National Doctors suggested a mastectomy of the left breast as a treatment, but Jiang Xiaoyu adamantly refused. Later, due to an emergency, the two National Doctors had to leave earlier, and it was only afterwards that they heard from the Jiang Family that Jiang Xiaoyu’s illness had been cured under Fang Bai’s treatment.

After learning this result, both National Doctors marveled at it when they met.

"Tianhe, Juedao, the Fang Bai you’re talking about, is he that young man just now?" Huang Tianpeng, who was nearby, couldn’t help but interrupt and ask after hearing the conversation between Ren Juedao and Hua Tianhe.

The ears of Wen Yu, the Pavilion Master of "Doctor Pavilion," perked up as well, hoping to get a confirmed answer from the mouths of Hua Tianhe and Ren Juedao.

She only suddenly remembered the invitation for Fang Bai to attend the "World Traditional Chinese Medicine Conference" that Lin Ruoxue had mentioned a few days ago when she heard Hua Tianhe and the other mention the name "Fang Bai". Her heart sank with unease.

A few days prior, through the mother and daughter, Lin Ruoxue and Dongfang Ruhua, Wen Yu had gained a general understanding of Fang Bai and had come to regard him as an equal to the four great National Doctors. If the young man she had just ignored were truly Fang Bai, had she not offended him?

After all, he was the one who had cured Dongfang Leiming’s heart disease and Jiang Xiaoyu from the Jiang Family’s breast cancer, and he was also the one who had single-handedly trained Dongfang Ruhua, the young female expert. Offending such a master skilled in both medicine and martial arts was not a wise thing at all.

"Hmm, he is indeed Fang Bai!"

"A hero emerges from the young. Despite his young age, his current achievements are already not below you and me."

"Proficient in both medicine and martial arts, his future prospects are boundless!"

"Wen Pavilion Master, excuse my bluntness, but not exchanging pleasantries with him just now was somewhat impolite!"

Ren Juedao and Hua Tianhe went back and forth, commenting on the situation.

Wen Yu replied with a bitter smile, "What the two National Doctors may not know is that I have only heard of Fang Bai and have never seen him in person! If it weren’t for the two of you bringing him up, I wouldn’t have known he was Fang Bai!"

Hua Tianhe said, "So you mean to say Fang Bai came uninvited?"

Wen Yu replied, "No, Ruoxue sent him an invitation. It’s just that I had forgotten about it."

Ren Juedao said, "Then, Fang Bai is probably not one to harbor small grievances; otherwise, he wouldn’t have helped out the Jiang Family’s girl in the first place. Wen Pavilion Master, just go and greet him, and make sure not to neglect him anymore!"

Wen Yu nodded and was about to turn back up the mountain when she noticed that the disciples of the four great Ancient Medicine Sects, under the leadership of their Sect Leaders, were approaching together.

The four great Ancient Medicine Sects were just as renowned as the Doctor Pavilion, and both the status and strength of their Sect Leaders were no less than that of Wen Yu. As old acquaintances, it would probably also displease them if Wen Yu did not personally welcome them.

Wen Yu, unable to be in two places at once, inwardly groaned with dismay. Then, an idea struck her, and she turned to a disciple behind her, saying, "Inform Miaomiao that Doctor Fang has arrived. Tell her to accompany Doctor Fang throughout and to maintain the utmost respect for him, without any discourtesy or neglect!"

The disciple acknowledged the order and went to carry it out.

Fang Bai, carrying the twenty million cheque he had just won from Qian Haoduo, continued alone toward the Doctor Pavilion at the mountain’s summit.

He wasn’t the least bit displeased by the Doctor Pavilion’s neglect; on the contrary, he felt more carefree and untroubled without anyone accompanying him.

Set amidst a scenic landscape, the Doctor Pavilion was built between mountains and waters, where one could sense the faint diffusion of Essence Energy along the mountain paths. It was considered a prime cultivation location for the average Martial Artist, but for Fang Bai, it certainly couldn’t compare to the small valley he had discovered.

Along the mountain trail, medicinal plots had been established on either side, where multiple herbs were grown. However, most of these herbs were merely decades old, and the Spiritual Medicines over a century old were extremely rare.

Young female disciples, looking pure and dressed in the Doctor Pavilion’s garb, flitted among the clusters of herbs, meticulously tending to the gardens.

In the eyes of ordinary healers, herbs with decades of maturity were already quite valuable, but to Fang Bai, apart from the few century-old Spiritual Medicines that were somewhat useful, the rest were practically worthless weeds.
