Chapter 194: Sikong Tu Shows Up!
The next morning, Lei Zhen slowly opened his eyes.
"Yo, awake?"
Before Lei Zhen could figure out where this Place was, Jiang Feng's teasing voice rang in his ear.
"Your recovery's pretty good, looks like your Fourth Grade Grandmaster foundation is indeed quite durable."
Lei Zhen's gaze, when it landed on Jiang Feng, flashed a fleeting murderous intent.
But he seemed to recall that Jiang Feng had stepped in to save her, and his expression quickly changed.
In a still slightly hoarse voice, he clasped his fist in greeting to Jiang Feng.
"Thank you, Divine Doctor Jiang, for stepping in to save me. It was my reckless actions before; I ask you, esteemed adult, to be generous, and not to spar with me."
"Alright, alright, no need for false politeness.
"" Jiang Feng waved his hand.
"I collected Five Hundred Million Medical Fee, not a cent less, as an equal exchange; it's not a rescue."
He paused, then his tone suddenly shifted, his eyes fixed straight on Lei Zhen, a face full of amusement.
"But I'm curious, those two Grandmaster death soldiers I had previously wounded severely, almost half‑crippled; if no one helped them recover, how could they break out of the Dragon Group Garrison and still severely wound you, this Fourth Grade Grandmaster?"
At those words, Lei Zhen's expression flickered, he remained silent for several seconds, then slowly spoke.
"Perhaps they had a special trump card; during the interrogation they suddenly surged, and we were unprepared, allowing them to slip through."
"Is that so?"
Jiang Feng raised an eyebrow, clearly unconvinced, but did not probe further.
He was merely curious; there was no need to keep chasing.
Moreover, revealing the Great Heaven is also a Dragon Group matter, and has nothing to do with him.
Lei Zhen averted his gaze from Jiang Feng, and fell silent again for a moment.
He seemed to have made up his mind; when he looked up at Jiang Feng again, his tone carried a hint of humility.
"Doctor Jiang, there's something I still need to tell you, there may be a misunderstanding between us."
"No misunderstanding."
Jiang Feng cut him off directly.
"Since the first time in the pharmacy I rejected you, you have harbored murderous intent toward me, and now... that intent only deepens."
Lei Zhen's smile on his face stiffened briefly, then he sighed.
"I admit, I indeed wanted your Prescription. If you had sold me the Prescription last time, I might already be a Fifth Grade Grandmaster, and yesterday I wouldn't have been severely wounded by those two guys, letting them escape."
"Jiang Feng, how about this: sell me the Foundation Establishment Pill Formula."
"If the one hundred million last time didn't satisfy you, I'll give you five hundred million! Even if it's not that power‑boosting Prescription, the Elixir you gave Lu Xiao yesterday, you can sell that to me!"
Five hundred million, even with Lei Zhen's wealth, is a serious strain on muscles and bones.
This also shows Lei Zhen's sincerity.
In his view, unless Jiang Feng's brain was malfunctioning, he would certainly agree to that price.
But Jiang Feng merely shook his head, his expression laced with mockery.
"You've given up hope, whether it's the Prescription or the Elixir, I won't sell either to you."
He had long seen through Lei Zhen's character.
He couldn't set aside their past grudges, so why give him the Prescription to become stronger and later confront him?
Even if Lei Zhen's strength wouldn't be on the table here for Jiang Feng.
But Jiang Feng wouldn't commit such a foolish act.
Lei Zhen's complexion instantly darkened, the murderous intent in his eyes could no longer be hidden.
"So, you insist on being my enemy?"
Jiang Feng shrugged, his tone full of indifference.
"After all, I already offended you to death, didn't I?"
The two locked eyes, Lei Zhen could no longer conceal the murderous intent in his gaze.
At that moment, the Ji Shi Tang doors were pushed open, and Shao Jinpeng hurried in from Outside.
Shao Jinpeng, at a glance seeing Lei Zhen awake, rushed over.
"Group Leader Lei! You're awake! Great! How do you feel?"
The sudden voice broke the stalemate.
Lei Zhen took a deep breath, suppressing the raging anger in his heart, the murderous intent in his eyes instantly contracted completely.
"No serious injury, thanks to Mr. Jiang's intervention."
Shao Jinpeng only then noticed the subtle tension between them, his heart gave a jolt, and he dared not ask further.
Jiang Feng had long seen Lei Zhen's recent murderous intent, and at this moment naturally his attitude toward him grew harsher, directly shooing him away.
"Since you're awake and your body seems fine, you may leave; don't occupy space here."
"Alright, we'll leave right away."
Shao Jinpeng quickly replied, stepping forward to support Lei Zhen.
Lei Zhen slowly stood up, his gaze turned to Jiang Feng, eyes complex.
"Mr. Jiang, I have recorded today's favor. Until we meet again."
"Better not see each other again."
Jiang Feng replied coolly.
Lei Zhen said nothing further, turned and walked toward the exit.
But just as the two were about to step out of Ji Shi Tang's doorway, a chaotic clatter of footsteps came from Outside.
Immediately after, a dozen or so people in black uniforms hurried in.
At the head was a stern‑faced middle‑aged man, and behind him, to everyone's surprise, stood the smug Sikong Tu!
"National Hand Sikong? Why have you come?"
Shao Jinpeng was also startled to see Sikong Tu; that old fellow looked… he isn't here to cause trouble, is he?
Sikong Tu ignored Shao Jinpeng and, upon entering, immediately fixed his gaze on Jiang Feng.
He pointed a finger at Jiang Feng and coldly said to the middle‑aged man,
"Director Wang, this Jiang Feng, without obtaining a medicine production qualification, illegally refined medicines and even dared to let people take them—trampling Human Life! I demand a strict investigation!"
As soon as those words were spoken, Lei Zhen's mouth corner showed a faint smile, and he actually stopped right there.
At this moment, Sikong Tu walked straight up to Jiang Feng, his eyes filled with madness.
"Hehe, Jiang Feng, is it? Old brother has long told you, daring to disrespect Old brother! Old brother guarantees that you won't be able to survive in the medical world!"
He is a Four Great National Physician of the National Medical Hall, and has even treated the one in the Forbidden Palace.
So when he went back yesterday, he only gave a brief instruction, and Director Wang Kun of the Jiangnan Medical Administration hurried over to help him deal with Jiang Feng.
Today he wants Jiang Feng's Medical Hall shut down, and Jiang Feng to be completely stripped of his qualification to be a doctor.
Director Wang Kun of the Jiangnan Medical Administration, upon hearing this, immediately walked up to Jiang Feng.
"Jiang Feng, is it? We are of the Jiangnan Medical Administration!"
"Having received a report from Grand National Physician Sikong, you, without obtaining a medicine production qualification, illegally refined medicines; please cooperate with us in the investigation!"
Sikong Tu was even more smug, spitting saliva as he opened his mouth and said,
"And that medicine of his, I want him to hand over the Prescription so I can examine it thoroughly!"
As he said this, his old face was full of frenzy.
