After swearing at Umekawa Kuroko's ancestors for the umpteenth time, Zhang Batian glanced at Zhang Kuang and spoke in a low voice, "Let's go! Let's hurry inside!"

"Yes, Grandfather!"

After agreeing, Zhang Kuang expressionlessly rubbed his nose!

Soon, with a grim expression on their faces, they quickly walked inside.

As soon as they entered the room, they saw Hu Xiaobei surrounded by numerous Chinese Medicine practitioners as if he were the star among them...

Feeling somewhat jealous, after taking a deep breath, Zhang Batian looked at Hu Xiaobei and sneered, "Hu Xiaobei, I'm giving you a chance now to show off! I want to see if you really have the confidence to cure Zhu Liwei. If you fail, I will make sure you are thoroughly disgraced today!"

Having said this chillingly, Zhang Batian, expressionless, walked to the side and sat down carelessly...

Just as Zhang Batian had sat down, those Chinese Medicine practitioners aligned with him quickly gathered around...

"Vice Chairman, what... what is happening?"

"Yes! How did Hu Xiaobei come back unscathed?"

"Right, didn't you assure us that you would find someone to deal with him? Didn't you say he would disappear without anyone noticing?"

All these people were on the same team as Zhang Batian.

Earlier, they all knew that Zhang Batian had found someone to deal with Hu Xiaobei.

And because they knew this, seeing Hu Xiaobei return unharmed now completely dumbfounded them.

Hearing their somewhat reproachful and urgent inquiries, Zhang Batian frowned in displeasure...

Soon, Zhang Batian coldly explained, "Previously, I indeed found people to deal with him. Unfortunately, the people I found were useless! They couldn't handle Hu Xiaobei. That's why this bastard could come back unharmed."

"What... what should we do now?"

"Yes!"

"If he really manages to revive Zhu Liwei, it will be difficult to handle!"

While asking these questions urgently, their expressions were complex...

Previously, they had sided with Zhang Batian because he had assured them he had full confidence in squeezing out Su Guo.

But now, realizing that this task might be difficult to achieve, they involuntarily began calculating their own smaller agendas.

Zhang Batian was no fool, so he sensed their ambivalence at this moment.

He sneered and spoke, "What now? Are you thinking of backing out? Do you regret choosing me?"

Hearing Zhang Batian's cold inquiry, they exchanged glances and quickly explained...

"How could that be! We were just hesitating for a moment, our resolve to follow you will not change."

"Yes!"

"We are loyal to you!"

Knowing they had boarded Zhang Batian's sinking ship and it wasn't easy to disembark, they were not prepared to leave but chose to continue because so far, there were no definite signs of Zhang Batian's complete failure.

Hearing their hurried explanations, Zhang Batian's expression slightly relaxed, "Good! If I find out you have other ideas, I will kill you outright!"

After threatening them, Zhang Batian changed his tone and sneered, "This Hu Xiaobei seems very confident, but we don't actually know how good his medical skills are. So for now, let's just wait and see!"

Hearing Zhang Batian's suggestion, they thought for a moment and slowly nodded...

Indeed!

Now that things had progressed to this state, continuing to do anything was meaningless. So instead, it was better to do nothing.

After they all agreed to his suggestion, Zhang Batian looked at Hu Xiaobei with a mocking sneer, "I really want to see just how capable you, an inexperienced person, actually are!"

...

As Zhang Batian jeered like this, Hu Xiaobei helplessly looked at the Chinese Medicine practitioners crowding in front of him. After rubbing his nose, Hu Xiaobei smiled bitterly, "If there's anything, let's talk about it later. I need to check on the patient first."

"Okay!"

After agreeing, everyone quickly stepped aside...

Hu Xiaobei took a deep breath and quickly walked over to Zhu Liwei who was still in a coma.

After taking his pulse briefly, Hu Xiaobei breathed a sigh of relief!

When he had left earlier, he had infused a portion of Nine Wood True Qi into his body.

This Nine Wood True Qi had nursed his body, so his condition had not deteriorated.

However, because the toxins in his body were not completely cleared, his condition had not improved much, and was essentially still the same...

...

Seeing Hu Xiaobei start to take a pulse, Zhang Batian and the others became somewhat anxious.

They were very nervous at this moment, truly worried that Hu Xiaobei might completely cure the patient...

Sensing Zhang Batian's anxiety, a slight smile appeared on Hu Xiaobei's lips. Soon, Hu Xiaobei looked at Su Guo standing to the side, "The medicine I asked you to prepare earlier, have you prepared it?"

"Yes! It's already prepared!"

While responding, Su Guo quickly clapped her hands, and soon, a young person walked over carrying a white porcelain bowl.

In that instant, everyone saw the dark black broth in the medicine bowl.

At the same time, they all smelled the strong medicinal fragrance...

"What a refreshing scent!"

The moment they smelled the medicinal fragrance, Zhang Batian's facial expression subtly changed...

"This medicine smells so good!"

"Yes, it seems to be really effective!"

"I think so too!"

When Zhang Batian's expression changed drastically, the other Chinese Medicine practitioners present couldn't help but murmur to themselves.

Hu Xiaobei heard their murmurs, and a faint smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

Soon, Hu Xiaobei placed it on the bedside table.

After placing it down, Hu Xiaobei rested his hands in his lap.

As everyone watched, Hu Xiaobei took out a deep green Green Beauty Fruit from his arms.

Although the Green Beauty Fruit had been picked some time ago, it still looked fresh and juicy due to Hu Xiaobei's careful preservation.

"Is this... is this the Green Beauty Fruit Hu Xiaobei brought back from Miaojiang?"

"It does look very beautiful!"

"Exactly!"

As it appeared before everyone, they all sincerely admired it...

There was no helping it, it really looked beautiful...

Hearing the admiration, Hu Xiaobei smiled, quickly peeled the skin off the fruit, and soon, drops of liquid fell into the thick medicinal soup.

Soon, the liquid that dropped in slowly dissolved completely into it...

Ten minutes later, Hu Xiaobei set the Green Beauty Fruit aside...

"Will this be able to save the patient?"

"I don't know!"

"Let's wait and see!"

Hearing their murmurs, Hu Xiaobei smiled again.

Soon, Hu Xiaobei glanced at the servant standing aside and said, "Could you please feed the medicine to the patient?"

"Yes!"

The servant agreed, quickly stepped forward, and administered the medicine...

Everyone was intently watching this process...

After all the medicine had been administered, they all kept their eyes on Zhu Liwei...

After a while, they all frowned.

Because even after several minutes, the comatose patient still showed no reaction whatsoever.

"What's going on?"

"Could it be ineffective?"

"Exactly!"

As everyone murmured such things, Hu Xiaobei seemed to become anxious too!

Like that, under everyone's gaze, Hu Xiaobei moved closer, observing the patient very carefully...

At that moment, no one noticed Hu Xiaobei's lips moving slightly...

"It looks like I was wrong!"

A minute later, under everyone's gaze, Hu Xiaobei quietly sighed.

Hearing Hu Xiaobei speak, Su Guo quickly and eagerly said, "Master Xiaobei, what... what exactly happened?"

"Yes, Master Xiaobei!"

"Tell us!"

"That's right!"

After Su Guo spoke, the other Chinese Medicine practitioners also hurriedly chimed in!

After looking at them, Hu Xiaobei sighed, "Previously, I underestimated Zhu Liwei's condition. I thought that just using the Green Beauty Fruit would be enough for her recovery, but now it seems I was too confident! Simply put, I failed! And I failed completely!"

"This..."

Su Guo's lips twitched slightly...

Not just Su Guo, the expressions of the other Chinese Medicine practitioners also changed...

They had previously had a lot of confidence in Hu Xiaobei, but they didn't expect such a result to occur...

"Haha, Master Xiaobei, so this is your strength! I'm really disappointed!"

Hearing this mocking remark, Hu Xiaobei turned his head and saw a proud-faced Zhang Batian and seven or eight other Chinese Medicine practitioners walking over.

"Yes, I'm so disappointed!"

"Absolutely disappointing indeed!"

"Yeah, yeah!"

As those following Zhang Batian chimed in, they completely relaxed, realizing now that Hu Xiaobei was not as miraculous as they had thought...
