The meal was prepared soon after. The Bai family's cook was good, and Lu Fan ate two large bowls, appearing to thoroughly enjoy it.
"Doctor Lu, this is a small token of my appreciation. I hope you will accept it!"
Bai Tianchen brought a briefcase and placed it in front of Ye Tian. Upon opening it, Lu Fan discovered it was filled with money.
"Boss Bai, this is too vulgar. I treat patients based on my mood, not for money!" Lu Fan said proudly. "Besides, carrying so much money around is inconvenient!"
Bai Tianchen chuckled awkwardly. "Doctor Lu is no ordinary person and naturally doesn't care for wealth. However, when traveling, one needs some means for social engagements. Since Doctor Lu doesn't want cash, please accept this card!"
"A Supreme Card?"
Elder Zhao exclaimed in surprise. "Boss Bai is truly generous. There are very few Supreme Cards in the country. Boss Bai offering it so readily shows his high regard for Doctor Lu!"
"Doctor Lu cured my father, how could I be negligent!"
Bai Tianchen smiled. He was a businessman, and someone like Lu Fan would undoubtedly need his help in the future. It was beneficial to forge a good relationship. Su Dan Novel Network.
"What is this card for?" Lu Fan asked, puzzled.
"Doctor Lu may not know, but this is a VIP Supreme Card. For any purchase, simply present this card, and it will be covered!"
Bai Tianchen stated directly. "All expenses will be paid by me."
"This might not be appropriate!" Lu Fan said awkwardly.
"Doctor Lu will be a distinguished guest of the Bai family from now on. A mere Supreme Card is nothing." Bai Tianchen smiled. "I've also heard a little about the Yang family's matter today. Doctor Lu, rest assured, I will keep this in mind!"
"You want to deal with the Yang family?" Lu Fan smiled. "There's no need!"
"The Bai family is quite influential in Qingzhou, and dealing with the Yang family is not difficult," Bai Tianchen said with a smile.
"I prefer to handle my own affairs," Lu Fan shook his head.
"This..." Bai Tianchen was slightly surprised, then gave a wry smile. "Since that's the case, I will respect Doctor Lu's wishes."
Lu Fan nodded. Dealing with the Yang family was his responsibility, and he didn't need outsiders to interfere. Moreover, if Bai Tianchen helped him so much, Lu Fan would be indebted to him.
After Lu Fan left, Elder Zhao exclaimed, "I never imagined there was such a remarkable person in this world!"
"Indeed, this person will achieve great things in the future!" Bai Tianchen agreed. "We can only befriend him, not offend him!"
"Is that why Boss Bai went to such lengths?" Elder Zhao narrowed his eyes. "I've never seen Boss Bai so earnest."
"Aren't you the same, Elder Zhao? A renowned national medical master personally seeking to become a disciple."
Bai Tianchen and Elder Zhao exchanged smiles. They were both astute individuals.
As night fell, Lu Fan walked alone, holding a bottle of wine, as if singing to the wine, pondering the transience of life. He was already about seventy to eighty percent drunk.
Not far from the street, several figures flickered. A sturdy man, carrying someone on his back, was fleeing towards an alley but was intercepted by several men in black.
"Dazhuang, put me down!"
The man on his back spoke, seemingly drugged and utterly weak.
"We take money to solve problems. The leader of the Azure Dragon Sect will likely perish here today!"
The leader of the black-clad men sneered. "After taking my Mind-Confusing Powder, even a master of the Great Accomplishment realm will be disoriented."
The Azure Dragon Sect was the overlord of Qingzhou's underworld, publicly known as the Azure Dragon Martial Arts Hall.
"Who are you people, and why are you attacking the sect leader!"
The sturdy man demanded. "Who is behind this!"
"There's no point in saying more. He will die today!"
The leader of the black-clad men said coldly and signaled to his subordinates, who then charged forward.
However, in an instant, Han Yunhai, the leader of the Azure Dragon Sect, suddenly rose and repelled several of them with a palm strike. He staggered, almost falling.
But at that very moment, a hidden weapon was launched. Han Yunhai couldn't dodge in time and was almost pierced through the heart. Coupled with the effects of the Mind-Confusing Powder, he was already at his limit.
"I know you are a master of the Great Accomplishment realm, so you were prepared," the leader of the black-clad men sneered. He intended to silence the witnesses under the cover of darkness.
"The moon is so round tonight. Aren't you ashamed to be here disturbing me instead of admiring it? Aren't you afraid I'll take you in?"
Lu Fan, holding a bottle of wine, staggered towards them, drinking as he went.
The leader of the black-clad men turned and glanced at Lu Fan. He shot a hidden weapon from his hand. Even if Lu Fan was a drunkard, disturbing his business meant a dead end.
Whoosh...
The hidden weapon whistled through the air with a sharp sound. The man in black didn't even turn his head. He knew the potency of the hidden weapon; even a master of the Great Accomplishment realm might not be able to dodge it. He didn't care about an ordinary drunkard.
"Kill Han Yunhai!"
As soon as the leader of the black-clad men finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his throat. A silver needle, like a sharp sword, had pierced him directly. He slowly turned his head and saw Lu Fan's harmless smile.
"Boss!"
The others shouted, their expressions filled with panic. They were professional assassins with agile movements, and Lu Fan had killed their leader with a casual gesture. They suspected he was a master from the Azure Dragon Sect.
With this thought, the black-clad men scattered, fleeing in all directions. The scene just now was too bizarre.
"I was just passing by, and you tried to kill me," Lu Fan said drunkenly. "Who did I offend? I think you deserved to die!"
"Thank you for saving me, sir!"
Han Yunhai, injured, expressed his gratitude, his heart filled with shock. Lu Fan's movements were too fast; even he couldn't see them clearly.
"I have no connection with you, why should I save you!" Lu Fan continued forward, holding his wine bottle. "It's just that he deserved it!"
Watching Lu Fan's retreating figure, Han Yunhai was stunned. "Dazhuang, when we get back, make sure to find out who this divine being is. To possess such skill at such a young age!"
Not long after, many experts from the Azure Dragon Martial Arts Hall arrived and escorted Han Yunhai back.
Lu Fan drank an unknown amount of wine and gradually lost consciousness. When he woke up, a ray of sunlight was already shining in.
Upon careful observation of his surroundings, he realized it was simple. Although he was in a room, there was only a table, and even the bed was made of wooden planks. Sunlight even seeped through the ceiling.
"Young man, you're finally awake!" An old man with silver-white hair walked in. "Quickly drink this ginger tea, or your head will ache."
"Where am I?" Lu Fan asked, looking confused. "I remember last night..."
"This is the commoner village, Qingzhou's commoner village!" The white-haired old woman smiled. "Everyone here calls me Granny Guihua. You were drunk last night and collapsed on the road. If it weren't for Ke'er, you would have been in danger."
"Ke'er?" Lu Fan looked a bit embarrassed. "Actually, I don't get drunk. Perhaps I was just too happy last night!"
"Don't say so much for now, drink the ginger soup quickly," Granny Guihua reminded him.
