When Mei Ruohua, whose figure was originally as upright as a pine tree, slowly knelt down in the astonished gazes of everyone, the sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth elders of the Divine Doctor Valley were all struck dumb, their faces filled with disbelief.
In their hearts, Valley Master Mei Ruohua has always been an unyielding and incorruptible figure, like a pine tree standing proudly on a mountaintop, never bowing its noble head no matter how the wind howls or the rain pours down.
But now, in front of Fang Han, she knelt down so decisively and without hesitation, her movements so swift, as if she were afraid that if she hesitated even for a moment, she would miss something.
This sudden scene was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring up huge waves in their hearts.
It should be noted that such a thing has never happened before in the long history of the Divine Healer Valley; it is truly an unprecedented spectacle.
However, amidst the astonished atmosphere, only the Second Elder Yelü Hong, kneeling on the ground, relaxed his tense nerves slightly, and his heart, which had been hanging in mid-air, returned to its original place.
Yelü Hong was a meticulous person and had been paying close attention to Fang Han's tone.
He keenly sensed a glimmer of hope in Fang Han's words.
If the others from the Divine Doctor Valley had not participated in the heinous act of turning Fang Han into a medicine man, and if their apologies were sincere, Fang Han might not have gone so far as to kill them.
At this moment, Mei Ruohua had already knelt down. In Yelü Hong's eyes, this was undoubtedly a lifeline in a desperate situation, which basically meant that the people of Shenyi Valley had been given a second chance at life.
"You can get up now."
Fang Han's gaze fell on Yelü Hong.
Yelü Hong felt as if he had been granted a pardon and hurriedly struggled to his feet.
After he stopped, he clasped his hands together, his expression urgent and sincere, and said to Fang Han, "Mr. Fang, please be magnanimous and don't kill our Valley Master. She is just a bit short-tempered and tends to protect her own without distinguishing right from wrong when things happen, but she has never done anything heinous. I hope Mr. Fang will investigate! If I have lied, I am willing to accept punishment."
Fang Han did not immediately respond to Yelü Hong's plea. His gaze shifted to Mei Ruohua, who was still kneeling on the ground, and he said calmly, "Are you convinced now?"
Mei Ruohua raised her head slightly, her eyes filled with regret and awe. She took a deep breath and said in a slightly trembling voice, "Mr. Fang, I admit it. This time I was indeed rash and offended you. I hope you can forgive me."
Seeing Mei Ruohua's sincere attitude, Fang Han slowly withdrew his mountain-like, oppressive aura.
His expression was cold and stern, his tone calm yet carrying an unyielding air: "Then you may leave. However, I hope that Divine Doctor Valley and the Zhao family will not cooperate in any further. If you harbor resentment and wish to take revenge on me again, I am ready at any time. But next time, I won't be so lenient, so you'd better think carefully."
Without Fang Han's oppressive aura, Mei Ruohua immediately felt relieved.
But upon hearing Fang Han's words, her heart tightened, and she quickly said, "Mr. Fang, please rest assured. The Zhao family, the Su family, and Yun Zhilan colluded to commit such heinous acts that are utterly despicable. They truly deserve to die. Now that Yun Zhilan is dead, the Zhao family is hiding like cowards. Just give the order, and I will immediately lead men to settle accounts with the Zhao family on your behalf, making them pay a heavy price for their actions!"
Fang Han narrowed his eyes slightly, a scrutinizing glint in his gaze, and asked in return, "Is this really true?"
Although Fang Han felt that Mei Ruohua was a tough nut to crack, he had suffered greatly at the hands of women in his previous life and knew that people's hearts were unpredictable. In this life, he naturally had to act cautiously and never repeat the same mistakes.
Seeing that Fang Han was suspicious, Mei Ruohua hurriedly said, "Mr. Fang, although I am impulsive, I am by no means the kind of shameless and incapable person who cannot distinguish right from wrong. The Zhao family has written to our Divine Doctor Valley many times, saying that the Fang family has stolen the Divine Doctor Valley's pill business, and is trying to sow discord between us and the Fang family, and make us deal with your Fang family!"
"The Su family is now like a candle in the wind. The Su family patriarchs, Su Yuande and Su Yuanwu, have both died at my hands. Ouyang Yan, who was actually the Holy Maiden of the Hehuan Sect, fled as soon as she saw the situation was bad. As for Su Qianyu, she has been captured by the Demon Suppression Division and is currently being imprisoned in a dark place. As for the Su family's elite forces, they have all been wiped out by my sword, leaving no one alive. Therefore, you don't need to take action against the Su family. As for the Zhao family, the reason I haven't acted yet is simply to deliberately leave them a way out, waiting for them to contact your Divine Doctor Valley so that you can obediently deliver yourselves to your doorstep. Hmph, even if the Zhao family hides to the ends of the earth, it's as easy as turning my hand to find them if I want to."
Fang Han said.
Upon hearing this, Mei Ruohua bowed slightly, her expression respectful, and quickly replied, "Mr. Fang, since you have already punished the Su family, I will now help you deal with the Zhao family and will certainly not let them escape justice."
Fang Han nodded slightly, his gaze calm, and said indifferently, "When you go there, you only need to kill Zhao Banshan and his son Zhao Tiancheng, as well as some of the core experts of the Zhao family. There is no need to exterminate them completely."
Mei Ruohua's expression hardened, and she solemnly replied, "Yes, Mr. Fang, I have remembered your instructions."
She paused for a moment and then continued, "However, although the Zhao family has exchanged letters with my Divine Doctor Valley a few times before, I really have no idea where they are hiding now. But Mr. Fang, please rest assured, give me three days, and I will definitely lead people to find Zhao Banshan and his son Zhao Tiancheng and give you an explanation."
Fang Han said directly, "There's no need for such a big fuss. I already know exactly where the Zhao family is hiding."
