Volume 1: The Genius Doctor's Hidden Edge 036 Everyone's Contempt!
"One million gold coins..."
Liu Shaobai saw that the master of the Su family had also received the Gathering Spirit Pill, and he was indeed very envious. However, one million gold coins were really too expensive for him to afford, and he couldn't help but sigh repeatedly. One million gold coins were equivalent to five years' worth of expenses for their entire family. Who else could afford such a sky-high price?
He glanced at Emperor Mo Ye beside him and bumped into him, saying: "Mo Ye, aren't you buying?" The financial resources of the number one estate in the world were also extraordinary. If it was him, one million was affordable.
Di Shang Mo smiled faintly and looked at him for a moment, then slowly stood up and walked forward: "Miss, I'll take that last Qi-gathering pill."
Just a loud noise was heard from behind, and looking at the three people who had obtained the three Congealing Qi Pellets, which one of them wasn't an extraordinary individual? With their wealth and power, among the people present, who else could compete with them?
Xia Xue smiled shallowly and glanced at him, taking the black crystal card he handed over, and also handing out a bottle: "This is the young master's Gathering Qi Pill." As soon as her voice fell, she turned around to leave, but was stopped by the crowd behind her.
"Miss, please wait a moment."
"What else?" Xia Xue stopped in her tracks and turned around, looking at the few people who spoke up unexpectedly.
"The auction has ended, we want to see Tianyi, please ask the young lady to pass on a message." Mr. Su bowed his head and body, hoping to catch a glimpse of Tianyi.
"Sorry, my master doesn't like to be disturbed."
"Let me go! What's wrong with letting me in? Get out of my way!"
At this time, a voice of anger came from outside the auction hall, which also made Xia Xue, who was originally ready to leave, look over in the direction of the sound. Mu Tianyu and several other family heads and Emperor Miao also looked at the gate due to the sudden noise.
Su Jia's master frowned slightly and ordered the guard behind him: "Go take a look at what's going on!"
The guard silently left and quickly returned: "Reporting to Master, it's the young master of the Left Prime Minister who wants to come in from outside, but was blocked by the palace guards."
As soon as he heard this, Mu Tianyu raised an eyebrow and said: "Tang Ziyu's son Tang Zihao? What is he doing here?" His voice fell, and after a slight pause, he continued: "Let him in, I have something to ask him."
"Yes!" A guard behind him responded with a single word and quickly left. Before long, a stout figure strode in with big steps.
When he saw the crowd, he hesitated for a moment, stepped forward, and came to the front of Mu Tianyou, making a fist and bowing: "Tang Zihao pays his respects to Your Majesty." Although he was the son of the Prime Minister's mansion, he was not under the jurisdiction of the imperial power, so he did not need to kneel.
"So you're Tang Zihao." Mu Tianyou sized him up, shocked that his strength had already reached the Wu Zong realm, and couldn't help but look at him with new eyes. His stout appearance gave people a sense of simplicity, but to have achieved such cultivation at such a young age, he must be an extraordinary person.
"Yes."
He nodded and asked in a low voice: "I heard that the Left Prime Minister was secretly attacked, now he is poisoned and unconscious. Is this true?"
"Returning to the Emperor, my father was ambushed and killed a few days ago. He suffered serious injuries and was poisoned with a rare toxin, falling into a coma. I originally planned to report this to the Emperor and ask for an investigation. However, those people launched another nighttime attack on our residence two nights ago, which delayed me until now. Having heard that the Ghost Hand Heavenly Doctor has arrived in the imperial city, I have come to request that the Heavenly Doctor go to our residence to treat my father's poisoning."
He said, his eyes falling on Xia Xue in front of him, and he clasped his fists: "Miss, Tang Zihao requests an audience with the Heavenly Doctor, please introduce us."
"Hum! Who does he think he is? Does he think Tianyi will help his father detoxify just because he wants to? Does he think he can see Tianyi just because he wants to? What a joke, he's overestimating himself!"
"Exactly! Everyone present wants to see the Ghost Hand Heavenly Doctor, but who has he deceived this time? A small and insignificant young master from a noble family can't even enter my eyes, how could he possibly enter the eyes of the Ghost Hand Heavenly Doctor?"
"If the Ghost Doctor is willing to see anyone who wants an appointment, then we have nothing to worry about."
The people behind him all cast contemptuous glances at him after hearing Tang Zihao's words, and the words they spoke also carried disdain and scorn. Naturally, these words also fell into the ears of Mo Tianyu and his group in front, who also revealed different expressions because of his words.
Mo Tianyou remained silent, not uttering a word. He merely glanced at Tang Zihao, then looked at the quiet sedan chair again, before lowering his eyelids, lost in thought.
The host, Su, glanced at him and upon realizing he was a martial artist, his eyes gleamed with interest as he stood aside to observe. In contrast, Su Zhen Nan and Su Ruo Shui looked at Tang Zi Hao with disdain and contempt in their eyes. To them, the stout and clumsy Tang Zi Hao was just an unsightly fatso who couldn't even step onto a stage. Having seen many handsome men and beautiful women, they inherently despised and detested his appearance.
The heads of the various families standing next to them also stood by with a calm and collected demeanor, watching. As the rulers of their respective families, their gaze was not as superficial as that of ordinary people. They did not think that Tang Zihao, who was plump in stature, would be unremarkable like his appearance suggested. He had entered the Wu Zong realm before the age of twenty, which was not something an ordinary person could achieve. As for whether he could invite Ghost Hand Heaven Doctor to treat his father's poisoning, and whether Ghost Hand Heaven Doctor would agree to do so, that was not something they could know.
"Tang Zihao, let alone detoxification, it's a big deal if he even agrees to see you."
Liu Shaobai waved the fan in his hand, glanced at the crowd behind him and said: "You see, the people present are either the heads of large families or powerful experts, all of whom have a certain status in the Jianghu. They all want to meet Tianyi, but so far, except for this white-clad girl, we haven't even seen Tianyi's shadow. Do you think that the great Ghost Hand Tianyi would ignore these famous figures and receive someone as unknown as you?"
Tang Zihao's narrow eyes glared at him and said in a bad tone: "You'd better not interfere here!"
"Saving one life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. As the heavenly doctor, you must have a kind heart as a doctor's parents. The left prime minister has been poisoned, and no one in the imperial city can cure it. Even Cangye asks the heavenly doctor to save the left prime minister's life."
A warm and sincere voice rose in the auction hall, and the sound was clearly transmitted to everyone's ears due to the faint power of Wu. Emperor Miao wore a blue robe and bowed his hands towards the second-floor private room, his eyes fixed on it, waiting for the decision of the person inside.
Tang Zihao's narrow eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, he didn't expect this Emperor to speak up for him, and even ask Guishou Tianyi to detoxify his father. After all, there was no deep relationship between them, let alone the fact that the Prime Minister's residence and the number one manor in the world were just superficial acquaintances.
His narrow eyes gazed deeply at him, and a faint, inexplicable glimmer flashed across the depths of his eyes, too quickly for anyone to notice.
