Chapter 1215 Strike First

“According to the usual exchange meetings, there will definitely be a competition with the doctors from various countries. Therefore, representing the Chinese Traditional Chinese Medicine Association, we absolutely cannot lose!” Gu Shiren, who came to see them off, said with a smile.

“Don’t worry, Elder Gu, with Chairman Wan here, what do we have to fear from doctors from other countries?” Lu Dashun seized the opportunity to flatter Wan Yunting.

However, in everyone’s opinion, this was not flattery but a firm belief that Wan Yunting would bring honor to the Chinese Traditional Chinese Medicine Association by attending this traditional medicine exchange meeting in Country H.

Wan Yunting cupped his hands to Gu Shiren, Gu Yuanbai, and others, and smiled, “Please rest assured, Elder Gu. I will lead everyone to successfully complete this exchange meeting mission and will not bring shame to anyone.”

Although his words were reserved and modest, this was Wan Yunting’s style, and everyone understood that his actions were always beyond his words. It was likely that at this exchange meeting, he would be locked in fierce competition with doctors from other countries…

“It’s getting late, let’s head to the airport.”

Wan Yunting checked the time. His private jet was already waiting at the airport.

“I’ll take you there.”

Gu Yuanbai said. Gu Luotang and Qi Miaomiao also went to see them off.

Wan Yunting nodded and deliberately sat in the same car with them. Li Tiangui took his daughter Li Tianyi in Liu He’s car, while others went in different cars to the airport…

Along the way, Gu Yuanbai cautioned Wan Yunting to act carefully, as they suspected that Sima Boyong might be involved behind the scenes of this traditional medicine exchange meeting hosted by the Korean Medicine Association!

Upon arriving at the airport, Wan Yunting got out of the car. Gu Luotang handed him his luggage bag, her eyes full of concern, and said, “I’ll wait for you to come back.”

Wan Yunting smiled and nodded. While Gu Yuanbai was talking to Li Tiangui, he went up and hugged Gu Luotang, kissed her on the cheek, and said gently, “Don’t worry, I’ll come back whole.”

Qi Miaomiao, who was standing aside and witnessing the affection, rolled her eyes and said sarcastically, “I heard there are many beautiful women in Country H!”

Wan Yunting released Gu Luotang, glanced at the girl, and grunted, “What does that have to do with me?”

Qi Miaomiao narrowed her eyes, a mischievous smile playing on her lips, and said, “Brother Yunting, don’t bring back a beautiful woman from Country H for my senior sister!”

Gu Luotang’s beautiful eyes warned him. Wan Yunting knew that Qi Miaomiao was being deliberately provocative. He chuckled, “Don’t listen to this girl talking nonsense. Who says Country H has many beautiful women? Those are all artificial faces. I still prefer natural beauty…”

As he spoke, Wan Yunting reached out to gently stroke Gu Luotang’s cheek. Gu Yuanbai, from the side, called out, “Little Wan, it’s time to go!”

Startled, Wan Yunting quickly retracted his hand, causing Qi Miaomiao to giggle heartily. Gu Luotang also covered her mouth with a smile and said, “You should go quickly, be careful. It doesn’t matter if you bring back a Korean beauty, just remember to come back safely.”

“Touched.”

These words moved Wan Yunting, and he touched his chest. Behind Gu Yuanbai’s back, he secretly blew Gu Luotang a kiss, then shot Qi Miaomiao a glare before turning and walking towards Li Tiangui and the others, calling out, “Everyone, let’s go inside.”

“Okay…”

Lu Dashun, Li Wenhai, and others responded and headed into the airport…

Wan Yunting waved goodbye to Gu Yuanbai, “Elder Gu, we’re leaving.”

“Yes, call me if anything happens, and be careful.” Gu Yuanbai nodded and instructed.

Wan Yunting smiled and nodded, then entered the airport with Li Tiangui, Chen Jiadong, and Yuan Jingguo. After passing through security, Wan Yunting led them towards a private jet…

“Wow, so luxurious! This is my first time on a private jet…”

As Li Tianyi boarded the private jet with Wan Yunting, her eyes lit up as she surveyed the luxurious private jet, which Jiang Wenhao had specially bought for Wan Yunting.

“Tsk tsk, the flight attendants are so beautiful…”

Sun Wenhao, Li Wenhai, and a few others stared wide-eyed at the four tall flight attendants in uniform, whose elegance and beauty were outstanding.

“Everyone, find your seats.”

Wan Yunting called out to everyone. He then invited Li Tiangui, Chen Jiadong, and Yuan Jingguo to sit in the seats near the front of the plane. The others also found seats and sat down, still immersed in the joy of their first private jet flight…

Wan Yunting instructed the captain to be ready for takeoff at any time, then returned to sit beside Li Tiangui and the others, chatting about the traditional medicine exchange meeting hosted by the Korean Medicine Association…

Professor Chen Jiadong had participated in an exchange meeting hosted by the Japanese Kampo Medicine Association last year, so he had experience and briefed Wan Yunting and Li Tiangui on the meeting’s procedures…

Of course, this time it was hosted by the Korean Medicine Association of the Joseon Dynasty, and the rules were likely to be different…

Soon, the plane took off, heading directly for Seoul, Country H, a journey of over two hours.

Wan Yunting and the others rested on the plane, with everyone gathering to discuss issues related to the exchange meeting…

Meanwhile, in a tea room at Sima Boyong’s residence in Seoul, Country H.

“Grandfather, Wan Yunting and the others have already departed for Country H!”

Sima Xuanyu entered and reported to Sima Boyong, who was leaning back in a chair, enjoying a massage from two beautiful maids.

“Hmph, I was really afraid that kid wouldn’t dare to come!”

Mentioning Wan Yunting, Sima Boyong’s sinister triangular eyes revealed a dark and fierce glint. The teacup in his old hand shattered with a bang, startling the two maids massaging his shoulders and legs. They quickly got up and stood aside, heads bowed, not daring to make a sound.

“Grandfather, please calm down.”

Sima Xuanyu quickly appeased him and said, “That kid used Chen Qiuyun to send us a fake set of the Thirteen Needles of Ghost Gate. This time he’s coming to Country H, we must make sure he never returns!”

Previously, Zhu Yangyu had sent the assassin Ah Gui to deal with Chen Qiuyun, but Wan Yunting had rescued her. After the incident was exposed, Sima Boyong knew that the acupuncture point diagram of the Thirteen Needles of Ghost Gate that Chen Qiuyun had given him must have been problematic!

Later, after their clinical trials, they discovered that the acupuncture point diagram of the Thirteen Needles of Ghost Gate and the incantation for the final needle were indeed incorrect!

“Hmph, fortunately, I wasn’t impatient and immediately presented the fake Thirteen Needles of Ghost Gate to the Lord God, otherwise the consequences would have been dire!” Sima Boyong’s old face twitched with gloom, he was furious about this.

If he had truly presented the fake Thirteen Needles of Ghost Gate to the Lord God, he would have faced utter destruction.

Sima Xuanyu raised an eyebrow and said, “Grandfather, Wan Yunting clearly suspects that we used the exchange meeting hosted by the Korean Medicine Association to invite him to Country H. The fact that he dares to come must mean he is prepared!”

Sima Boyong nodded. After all, following the Chen Qiuyun incident, with Wan Yunting’s intelligence, he was bound to guess that this exchange meeting was orchestrated by him. Therefore, his willingness to come to Country H indicated that besides confidence, he must have made preparations.

Sima Boyong’s old mouth curled into a cold smile, “Once he leaves China and arrives in Country H, even if Wan Yunting is prepared, we must capture him and present him to the Lord God at any cost!”

Sima Xuanyu nodded and said, “Yes, I’ll start making preparations now…”

“Wait.”

Sima Boyong called out to him. His half-closed triangular eyes revealed a sharp glint, and he said, “Remember to guard against Che Tai Min!”

Sima Xuanyu’s expression faltered, and he asked, “Grandfather, are you worried that Che Tai Min will snatch Wan Yunting from us?”

Sima Boyong stood up, walked in front of the two maids who were standing with their heads bowed, not daring to make a sound, and said with a sinister smile, “The Lord God needs the Thirteen Needles of Ghost Gate, and Che Tai Min knows this. Moreover, Che Tai Min is aware that we have been in conflict with Wan Yunting, and besides, we have Che Tai Min’s people among us!”

As soon as he said this, the maid standing on the right, with her head bowed, her expression changed drastically. Suddenly, a dagger slid out from her wide sleeve, and she lunged towards Sima Boyong in front of her…

“Grandfather, be careful…!”

As Sima Xuanyu cried out in alarm, Sima Boyong, who had already noticed that this maid was suspicious, grabbed the maid’s right wrist as she lunged with the dagger. His sinister triangular eyes glared fiercely, and with a sudden twist of his old hand, the maid screamed, and the dagger dropped to the ground…

Then Sima Boyong reached out his left hand and grabbed the maid by her beautiful neck. Showing no mercy, he gave it a sudden twist. With a cracking sound of bones breaking, the maid’s eyes widened, and her body went limp and collapsed on the ground. The other maid beside her screamed in fright, slumped to the ground, and retreated continuously…

“Someone, take her away.”

Knowing what was going on, Sima Xuanyu immediately called for his subordinates outside, who took away the terrified maid and the body of the maid killed by Sima Boyong.

“Grandfather, it seems we need to strike first!”

Sima Xuanyu hadn’t expected that the right protector, Che Tai Min’s subordinate, had already reached his grandfather’s side!

Sima Boyong took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands. Turning around, his triangular eyes revealed a sinister and fierce gaze, and he said coldly, “Since Che Tai Min’s reach is so long, then don’t blame me for tearing the mask off.”

“Give the order, whenever there’s an opportunity, strike directly at Che Tai Min!”

“Yes.”

Sima Xuanyu nodded and turned to prepare to arrange personnel from the assassin group, while also ensuring that he would capture Wan Yunting first to prevent Che Tai Min from snatching him.

As long as Wan Yunting was captured and presented to the Lord God, then he, Sima Boyong, would have nothing to fear from Che Tai Min’s threat to his position as the left protector.

Perhaps, with the power of the Lord God, he could even eliminate Che Tai Min, the right protector!

This was because what the Lord God desired was only the Thirteen Needles of Ghost Gate!
