Jiang Yun's voice plunged the entire Duoyao Pavilion, inside and out, into a deathly silence!

Everyone stared intently at the two Medicinal Pills in Jiang Yun's hand, their faces filled with deep shock.

Although most people didn't know how to distinguish the rank of a Medicinal Pill, by simply comparing the appearance of the Medicinal Pills held by Jiang Yun and Du Guirong, it was clear which was superior.

The Medicinal Pills refined by Jiang Yun were both incredibly smooth, while the surface of the Medicinal Pills refined by Du Guirong had a few granular protrusions.

What's more, Jiang Yun refined two Medicinal Pills!

Both in quantity and quality, he surpassed Du Guirong!

"Impossible! You liar! You must have used some kind of illusion."

Du Guirong suddenly let out a roar and lunged at Jiang Yun, clearly consumed by hatred and striking out in anger.

The red-robed man took a step forward, blocking Jiang Yun's path, and said impolitely, "Master Du, please show some self-respect. Fighting is forbidden in Nanxing City!"

With that single sentence, Du Guirong's body stiffened and came to a halt.

At this moment, Jiang Yun stepped past the big man and tossed the two Medicinal Pills to Du Guirong, saying, "Master Du, you've been too kind. I'll be taking this Medicine Furnace!"

After speaking, Jiang Yun also swept his sleeve and put away the san hua furnace.

When he saw his Medicine Furnace taken by Jiang Yun, Du Guirong's heart bled!

However, when he saw the Medicinal Pills refined by Jiang Yun, although extremely unwilling, he had to admit that these were absolutely genuine Heaven Rank Bigu Pills!

Suddenly, Jiang Yun looked at Du Guirong again and said, a little awkwardly, "Master Du, how about we compete again?"

Du Guirong was slightly stunned, but then his eyes widened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Compete! Let's compete again! This time, we'll compete with Second-Grade Pills!"

Jiang Yun said unhurriedly, "We can compete, but the prerequisite is that Master Du must produce something of similar value to my Luck Talisman! Otherwise, Master Du would be bullying me!"

"This..."

Du Guirong was immediately stunned. Although he was a Second-Grade Alchemist and had many good things on him, he absolutely had nothing that could compare to the Luck Talisman, not even the san hua furnace he had just lost.

Seeing Du Guirong's expression, Jiang Yun suddenly straightened his face and said, "If you don't have anything, Master Du, then please leave!"

After staring intently at Jiang Yun for a moment, despite all his anger, Du Guirong could only stomp his foot in frustration and turn to leave without a word.

Then, Jiang Yun turned to the bewildered middle-aged man and said, "Why aren't you leaving? Go chase him quickly! The Corpse Grass poison could act up at any time!"

As soon as he said this, the middle-aged man immediately lowered his head and sheepishly squeezed out of the crowd.

Clearly, everyone knew that he and Du Guirong were in cahoots, putting on a show together, originally intending to suppress Jiang Yun, but it ended up backfiring on them.

As these two left, the onlookers immediately burst into cheers.

In fact, these people all knew that Du Guirong was deliberately framing Jiang Yun, but even if they wanted to stand up and say a few words of fairness for Jiang Yun, considering the background of the Hundred Herbs Hall, especially the Luo Family behind it, it made them angry but afraid to speak.

Most of them were Loose Cultivators, with no fixed Sect or Family to back them up. How could they dare to offend the powerful Luo Family, and what's more, this was Nanxing City!

Now that Jiang Yun had successfully driven Du Guirong away, they naturally felt happy for Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun cupped his hands to the crowd and said, "Everyone, my medical skills are indeed not outstanding. If you are still willing to trust me, you can stay. For those who don't, please seek someone more skilled!"

Everyone quickly said in unison, "We believe, of course, we believe Master Gu!"

"Good, then let's continue!"

When the shop closed, Jiang Yun found Xia Zhongxing and directly handed over the san hua furnace.

This was the real reason Jiang Yun wanted to compete with Du Guirong again: he wanted to use this furnace as a token of gratitude for Xia Zhongxing's care during this period, especially for standing up for him at a crucial moment.

Looking at the san hua furnace in front of him, Xia Zhongxing was also quite surprised, but he shook his head and said, "This san hua furnace is useless to me. You should keep it yourself. At least it's much better than a pot!"

Jiang Yun scratched his head and said, "I'm used to using a pot!"

Xia Zhongxing smiled and said, "A pot is good, but using a Medicine Furnace is better. I think you should have already realized that. Keep it; you won it fair and square!"

In the end, Jiang Yun could only reluctantly keep the san hua furnace.

...

Du Guirong never expected that he had originally planned to use this opportunity to humiliate and frame Duoyao Pavilion, but after today's events, it instead boosted Jiang Yun's reputation.

Now, in the mouths of many Cultivators, Jiang Yun was not just a divine doctor but also an Alchemist who had refined Heaven Rank Medicinal Pills!

Originally, everyone thought that Hundred Herbs Hall and Du Guirong would definitely not let this go, but surprisingly, the following days were incredibly peaceful.

Apart from the increasing number of Cultivators lining up, no one else came to cause trouble at Duoyao Pavilion.

Just like that, three more days passed.

That night, the sky was covered in dark clouds, and muffled thunder rumbled, indicating a heavy rain was about to fall.

Inside Duoyao Pavilion, Jiang Yun and Xia Shi had just seen off the last Cultivator and were about to close when suddenly, a series of urgent shouts came from afar: "Master Gu, wait, wait!"

Two middle-aged Cultivators ran over anxiously. Upon reaching them, they immediately bowed deeply to Jiang Yun, panting, "Master Gu, please save our Junior Brother!"

Jiang Yun glanced at the two, finding them somewhat familiar. He remembered they were probably people he had treated recently, and he quickly reached out to help them up, saying, "Don't worry, speak slowly. What happened to your Junior Brother?"

"Our Junior Brother was injured by a Yao Beast outside the city. His injuries are extremely severe, and we dare not move him, so we rushed here, presumptuously hoping to ask Master Gu to go and save him."

Jiang Yun pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, lead the way."

The two Cultivators immediately bowed repeatedly to Jiang Yun with excitement, saying, "Thank you, Master Gu, thank you, Master Gu!"

"Xia Shi, I'll be back soon!" Jiang Yun instructed Xia Shi, then turned and followed the two Cultivators out of the city.

"Going out so late, Elder Brother Gu is truly too kind!" Xia Shi shook his head, muttering softly.

As soon as he finished speaking, a voice suddenly sounded behind him: "He is indeed very kind, but if they think kind people are easy to bully, then they are gravely mistaken!"

"Who's there!" Xia Shi suddenly turned around and saw his father standing behind him. He immediately patted his chest and said, "You scared me to death, Dad. Why are you like a ghost, making no sound at all? Oh, right, what did you just say? Who wants to bully whom?"

Xia Zhongxing looked at his son and smiled slightly, "Nothing. Dad also has something to do outside. You close the door and rest early!"

After speaking, Xia Zhongxing also stepped out of the shop door and walked onto the street. The direction he was walking was clearly the same as the direction Jiang Yun had left.

"Dad, it's going to rain! Do you want to take an umbrella!"

"No need!"

"How strange, what's going on today? Everyone's running out late at night!"

"Boom!"

A sudden clap of thunder exploded, making Xia Shi's body tremble slightly, and the next moment, large raindrops began to fall from the sky. It was raining.
