Chapter 350 - 350: A Miracle Doctor Without Martial Skills Is Not A Good Actor (2)

Mom Jiang, mouth agape in astonishment, asked, “Ningning, did you find this friend in a special forces unit?”

Jiang Changning was at a loss for words for a moment before replying, “No, she’s a celebrity.”

It was her first time witnessing Si Fuqing in action, even though she had heard from the trainees of ‘Youth With You’ that Si Fuqing knew some martial arts.

Silently, Jiang Changning observed the incapacitated men.

This is Si Fuqings description of ‘knowing a bit’ ofmartial arts?

“What were these men after?” Si Fuqing inquired, turning to her. “Coming over during day night, is your village this chaotic?”

The Thousand Army Alliance has always been the embodiment of “martial prowess.”

Yet, it was surprising to find the Miracle Doctor Alliance, usually so peaceful and uninvolved in conflicts, resorting to such brute force in resolving issues.

“They are after the Millennium Earth Treasure Flower that my father planted,” said Jiang Changning, frowning slightly. “The assessment is just a few days away, and that flower is a crucial medicinal ingredient for my father’s participation. It seems they couldn’t wait any longer.”

Not everyone in the Miracle Doctor Alliance practiced medicine.

Some healed, some made medicines, and others specialized in cultivating medicinal herbs.

The division of labor was clear.

However, the internal strife was fierce.

Open and covert battles for resources were not uncommon.

As long as the overall stability of the Alliance was not disturbed, the elders and the leader would not intervene.

After all, competition was essential for growth.

“Millennium Earth Treasure Flower?” Si Fuqing’s gaze deepened. “It can actually be cultivated?”

The Millennium Earth Treasure Flower was a special medicinal herb from the game “Eternity,” which she had used extensively in her pharmaceutical work.

A three-star game account could bring items from the game into the real world, but not everything was transferable.

The Millennium Earth Treasure Flower was one such exception.

Even higher-ranking players, fortunate enough to find this flower, would see it wither and turn to dust the moment they attempted to bring it out of the game.

“Yes,” hesitated Jiang Changning. “The seed was given by my brother. I’m not entirely sure how my dad managed to grow it.”

“What about them?” inquired Si Fuqing, nodding. “Why did they leave you here?”

“They went to the neighboring village to sell some medicinal herbs,” sighed

Jiang Changning. “It’s the first time we’ve encountered something like this.”

“Let’s rest for now,” suggested Si Fuqing, “Auntie Jiang is startled.”

“I’m fine, really,” reassured Mom Jiang, her eyes shining. “Miss, what’s your name, how many people do you have in your family, where do you come from,

I have a—”

Jiang Changning interrupted her coldly, “Mom.”

The conversation was ongoing when Jiang Changfeng and Jiang Luying returned.

Upon entering, they immediately noticed the people lying scattered on the ground.

Jiang Changfeng’s expression changed, “Dad, they actually dared to come here to rob us.”

Jiang Luying’s face darkened as well.

He knelt to examine the condition of the dozen or so individuals, inhaling sharply: “Such domineering and exquisite technique!”

They were rendered useless without much force.

Only then did Jiang Changfeng notice Si Fuqing, looking slightly startled, he said, “Miss Si, it was you…”

“Luying, let me introduce her to you,” Mom Jiang interjected happily. “This is Miss Si Fuqing, a friend of Ningning. It’s good that she was here, or things could have turned out much worse today.”

“Miss Si, thank you so much, ” said Jiang Luying, standing upright with respect.

“If it weren’t for your help today, Ningning and her mom might have…”

“It’s a small matter. I don’t expect things to settle down before your assessment,” Si Fuqing smiled. “I have a bodyguard who can assist you. He’s currently not doing much.”

After all, Shang Lu had undergone formal training at the Thousand Army Alliance, which was more than just simple combat skills.

Jiang Luying was taken aback, “That seems a bit too much…”

“Don’t worry about it. I’ve enjoyed many of Ningning’s treats,” Si Fuqing said, picking up her phone. “I’ll call him over now.”

Meanwhile, on the other side of the forest, in Elder Village.

At the mountain summit, there was a wooden house surrounded by a garden and a small mountain stream.

An elderly man with white hair sat opposite Yu Xiheng at a stone table with a Go board.

Upon seeing Yu Xiheng finish a phone call with a light sigh, the Supreme Elder couldn’t help but express his surprise, “Mr. Yu, are you facing some trouble?”

In the ten years he had known him, the Supreme Elder had never seen Yu Xiheng show any excess emotion.

Before meeting Yu Xiheng, the Supreme Elder had never imagined someone could so perfectly control all their emotions.

“She’s found out,” Yu Xiheng placed a piece on the board, “She’s quite angry, so I thought it best to step out for a while.”

The Supreme Elder was puzzled: ???

Who could possibly make Yu Xiheng utter such words?

Yu Xiheng didn’t elaborate, and the Supreme Elder didn’t inquire further..
