Wu Youcai was taken aback for a moment, but instantly understood what she meant.

However, I still hesitated.

He and Hong Gu both followed Ouyang Feng. If Ouyang Feng's reputation was ruined, then their lives would be miserable.

Moreover, Ouyang Feng has a truly powerful master behind him.

If they betray him, then even if they save Hong Gu's life, she certainly won't have a good life.

After hesitating for a long time, I finally made a decision:

"Miracle doctor, goddess doctor, please, save Hong Gu! I admit that what happened today was all a setup by the two of us. Please, don't hold a grudge against us, please save Hong Gu!"

After saying this, although he was holding Hong Gu, he still tried his best to kowtow to Yu Shuyan repeatedly.

That was as sincere as could be, and as pitiful as could be.

Even the onlookers began to feel sorry for him, and some even suggested that Yu Shuyan should save him first.

Yu Shuyan's voice, however, was icy cold:

"I want to hear more than just this."

Wu Youcai became anxious:

“Yuan Niangzi, you must have already saved Yu Moyan. Since he is not dead, you shouldn’t make Hong Gu be buried with him.”

Seeing that he remained stubborn and unresponsive, Yu Shuyan ignored him and turned to walk back into the house, clearly indicating that she had no intention of paying him any attention.

Never mind them.

Wu Youcai grew anxious and shouted:

"Yuan Niangzi, aren't you afraid that if word gets out, your reputation as a divine healer will be ruined because you're so cold-blooded!"

The onlookers also chimed in:

"Yes, maybe we should save them first."

"Exactly! If a doctor is this cold-blooded, who will dare to see you for treatment in the future!"

······

A smug glint flashed in Wu Youcai's eyes:

I don't want to provoke public outrage. I'd like to see if you dare not save people with so many people watching. If you still want a reputation, you'd better come and save people obediently.

Sure enough, Yu Shuyan suddenly stopped, turned around slowly, and looked straight at Wu Youcai.

Just when everyone thought she was under pressure and preparing to save Hong Gu.

Yu Shuyan took a step forward and slowly walked up to Wu Youcai. She looked down at him coldly, her voice equally icy:

"I regret it!"

Wu Youcai was overjoyed:

Hmph, so impressive? Not really. You'd better obediently save people for me.

Yu Shuyan didn't bother to look at him and quickly stuck the needle in her hand into Wu Youcai's neck.

Everyone was stunned; clearly, no one had expected Yu Shuyan to do such a thing.

Wu Youcai stared at Yu Shuyan in shock, his whole body began to convulse, but he did not collapse immediately.

Yu Shuyan said coldly:

"I have a bad temper and very little patience. Right now, I've only scratched your skin a little, so you'd better say what you need to say quickly. Otherwise—"

As he spoke, he glanced at the needle in his hand, his meaning clear.

Wu Youcai was genuinely terrified at this moment, because nothing is more important than life.

He said hurriedly:

“I...I...I'll tell you. We came here because Ouyang Feng told us to. He thinks that Yuan Niangzi's medical skills are superb, and if we let her practice medicine in Lingjin City, it would steal his title of divine doctor. So, he told us to do everything we can to ruin her reputation.”

"Wow~"

The onlookers were in an uproar.

After all, Ouyang Feng's reputation as a divine physician in Lingjin City was widely known. Every time he appeared, he always had a compassionate and merciful demeanor.

I never expected it to be such underworld tactics; it's beneath us.

Yu Shuyan's expression remained unchanged as she continued coldly:

"anything else!"

Knowing he couldn't fool them, Wu Youcai swallowed hard and dared not hide anything any longer, continuing:

"Actually, Ouyang Feng is just a Taoist priest. He doesn't know any medical skills at all."

"Wow~"

The onlookers reacted even more intensely, discussing the matter with expressions of disbelief.

Yu Shuyan stared at Wu Youcai:

"go on."

Wu Youcai hurriedly continued:

"His reputation as a miracle doctor is all a lie. Those he cured were all people he had poisoned with this hidden weapon beforehand, and then he pretended to treat them. In reality, he just gave them the antidote he had prepared in advance."

"That's why he was selective in treating patients."

Now, the whispers around them were no longer the only sounds.

Instead, things exploded.

"How could that be? My God, this is so disgusting and despicable."

"He's really bold! I heard that those he cured are all prominent figures in Lingjin City. Isn't he afraid of being exposed and losing control of the situation?"

"Hey, what do you think would happen if those people knew that Ouyang Feng had made them so happy and that they were so grateful to him? Wouldn't they be furious?"

"Exactly! If it were me, I'd be furious. I'd definitely find that Ouyang Feng and get my revenge."

"Wait a minute, what do you think would happen if we told those who were tricked by him? How grateful would they be to us?"

Upon hearing this, several people's eyes flashed with greed.

He turned around and ran out.

The speed was as if they were afraid that if they ran too slow, someone else would steal the credit.

Yu Shuyan's lips curled slightly:

Wenlang, I really want to know.

When those people realize they've been tricked by Ouyang Feng, how will you, the one who invited Ouyang Feng for them and earned their gratitude, conduct yourself?

Wu Youcai couldn't care less about their reactions; he stared intently at Yu Shuyan:

"I've told you everything, please save me, please save me."

Yu Shuyan raised her hand, and several silver needles appeared in her hand. She directly shot the silver needles at several points on Wu Youcai and Hong Gu from a distance.

Wu Youcai said suspiciously:

"That's it? I saw you spend a long time applying acupuncture to save Yu Moyan. Why are you so perfunctory with us? Did you even save us?"

Yu Shuyan sneered:

"I only promised not to kill you. I didn't say I would completely cure you. Since you want to use this to poison people, then live on and suffer the excruciating pain brought by this poison every day."

After speaking, he coldly glanced at the crowd still in the courtyard:

"What, aren't you leaving yet? Do you want me to give you a few acupuncture treatments?"

Everyone was frightened and immediately waved their hands, scattering like birds and beasts.

Yu Shuyan stared coldly at Wu Youcai:

"What, you want to die?"

Startled, Wu Youcai endured the pain all over his body and hurriedly carried the still unconscious Hong Gu out of the room.

Seeing everyone leave, Yu Shuyan immediately turned around and rushed to Yu Moyan's side. Staring at Yu Moyan's still pale and weak face, her eyes were full of worry, and she murmured:

"Brother, don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you. It's just the 'Purple Jade Snow Lotus,' I'll find it for you! I'll never let you suffer this excruciating pain every day."

However, despite her confident words, her furrowed brows betrayed her inner uncertainty.

After all, the diagnostic chart showed that this "Purple Jade Snow Lotus" came from the Han Hai Kingdom and grew at a depth of a thousand meters on the seabed. Only the lotus pickers of the Han Hai Kingdom, passed down through generations, possessed the secret method of lotus picking.

The lotus picking process is so difficult that some lotus pickers never manage to pick a single lotus in their entire lives.

Historically, these flowers were exclusively for the Han Hai royal family, and the Han Hai royal family has only ever received four of them.

The Han Hai royal family and the Dayong Kingdom have been in a state of hostility ever since the death of their late emperor.

It's practically impossible to obtain their "Purple Jade Snow Lotus".
