His attendants had already spoken up for him: "Where did this brat come from? Men, arrest him!"
Bang! Wu Yan sent the guard flying with a single punch.
"I...Is there any hope for me?" The old man clung tightly to Jun Liuyue's sleeve as if grasping at a straw.
After taking the old man's pulse, Jun Liuyue said, "Hmm." Then she took out a porcelain bottle and handed the old man the pills inside.
"Eat it."
"You'd better think this through. This person is questioning the Ghost Doctor. Who knows what kind of food he's giving you? You might not survive, but die even faster."
Someone in the crowd said with a mocking laugh.
The old man hesitated for a moment, but the next second, he took the pill from Liu Yue's hand and swallowed it whole.
"Poison? Why do you have such a foul mouth!" Mei Niang stomped on the man's foot, and the latter let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.
"You're asking for death!" The man clenched his fist and punched Mei Niang.
Just as the fist was about to land, Ouyang Chen grabbed the man's fist.
Sensing the oppressive aura emanating from Ouyang Chen, the man instantly resembled a hedgehog with its quills plucked.
"Ah!" The old man who had taken the pill suddenly couldn't help but shout, and everyone around him looked at him.
The old man was clutching his stomach, looking like he was in great pain.
"I told you not to eat things from unknown sources. Now look what's happened. I could have lived a few more days, but now I'm probably going to die immediately..."
Before the man could finish speaking, the old man's hunched body miraculously straightened out.
"No, it doesn't hurt anymore," the old man exclaimed in shock, rubbing his stomach, feeling no pain at all.
Even when there's no attack, there's a dull ache in my abdomen, but right now... there's no pain at all.
Thump! The old man knelt down directly before Jun Liuyue: "Divine doctor, divine doctor! Truly a divine doctor of our time..."
The old man was incredibly grateful that he hadn't questioned the miracle doctor; otherwise, having missed this opportunity, he might have truly had to prepare for his death.
Everyone stared wide-eyed in disbelief at what they were seeing.
Fu Hongbo never expected that this brat's pills would actually work!
Could it be that this brat is also an alchemist?
Otherwise, how could he tell the composition of the medicine? Indeed, the composition of the medicine costing 10,000 spirit stones was almost identical to what Jun Liuyue had described.
The cost is only five spirit stones.
Seeing that the old man had miraculously recovered, everyone looked at Fu Hongbo with a hint of doubt in their eyes.
How could a renowned ghost doctor determine life or death so easily? Isn't that a bit too hasty?
"This ghost doctor is nothing special."
"Yes, one pill would be enough to cure him, but he said he would definitely die. Isn't that a bit too hasty?"
The crowd murmured among themselves.
At this moment, Fu Hongbo let out a cold laugh.
Clap clap clap.
Fu Hongbo clapped his hands; "What a show! Young master, what good does it do you to smear me?"
“Even the best medicine couldn’t work so quickly. Even my Spirit Gathering Elixir can’t do that! I don’t believe you didn’t know each other before.”
Fu Hongbo was indeed very clever; he dispelled the doubts with just a few words.
"Since when can imposters be so arrogant?" Liu Yue chuckled.
"How dare you!"
The guard rebuked him.
"Hahaha." Fu Hongbo laughed as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world. "If I were an imposter... Ah!" Before he could finish speaking, the spirit whip wrapped around Fu Hongbo's waist and whipped him around hard.
The speed was so fast that the guards next to him didn't even have time to react. By the time they came to their senses, Fu Hongbo had already fallen face-first into the mud.
"M-My lord!" The guards were terrified. They were ordered by His Majesty to protect the Ghost Doctor. Now that the Ghost Doctor had been beaten, if word got to His Majesty, even a hundred heads wouldn't be enough to pay off their debts.
"You! How dare you hit me!" Fu Hongbo shouted angrily. Before the guards could step forward, the spirit whip lashed Fu Hongbo, who was lying on the ground, violently—
The next second, Fu Hongbo's teeth hit the ground, and two of his front teeth were knocked out.
Fu Hongbo was not a useless person without any cultivation, but his mediocre cultivation was completely suppressed by Jun Liuyue, leaving him no chance to resist.
"Ah, my teeth!" Fu Hongbo's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
That bitch, that slut!
"Hurry up and save me!!" Fu Hongbo shouted.
But the guards couldn't get close at all; they could only watch helplessly as Fu Hongbo was tortured, tossed from left to right and then from right to left, looking utterly pathetic.
"How dare you! The Ghost Doctor is His Majesty's honored guest! How dare you treat the Ghost Doctor like this!" the guard said angrily. If looks could kill, Jun Liuyue would have died ten thousand times over.
"Oh." The young man spoke lightly, slowly putting away his spirit whip.
At that moment, Fu Hongbo was thrown into the air, freed from his restraints, and fell straight down from mid-air with a crack! The sound of bones breaking rang out.
Everyone: ...
