Peerless Medical Emperor

Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Competition

After taking care of some things with Li Yi, Zheng Zhiyi then brought him to find Chen Qingdi.

At this moment, Chen Qingdi was in the clinic, waiting for patients to arrive.

After all, he had returned to repay his godmother’s kindness.

Although his godmother was still recuperating, the clinic couldn’t be left unattended. The people of Jinghai City had recognized her medical skills for one main reason: they were simply exquisite.

She was acclaimed as the Jinghai Divine Physician, a title that almost no one in Jinghai dared to dispute.

And now, as her godson, it was only natural for him to inherit the clinic and treat the people of Jinghai City.

Today was Chen Qingdi’s first day seeing patients. He didn’t have anyone accompany him, figuring that those guys would just scare away patients if they hung around. It was better for him to receive patients by himself.

Chen Qingdi sat there for a whole morning without a single patient. He was in a terrible mood and casually lit a cigarette.

Just then,

DING-DONG!

A notification popped up on Chen Qingdi’s phone.

Chen Qingdi glanced at his phone, and a flash of joy crossed his face.

The message was from Yi Xuesha. She said the Celestial Ninja Group’s branch had already withdrawn from Jinghai.

But from this point on, their feud with the Celestial Ninja Group was set in stone.

Yi Xuesha told Chen Qingdi not to be too high-profile for the time being. Although his strength was great, there was no telling what kind of sinister plots those guys from the Celestial Ninja Group might pull.

Although Chen Qingdi was a bit annoyed, he had to look after his godmother and teach Xu Menghan both medicine and the Martial Dao, so he readily agreed.

Xu Menghan came out carrying a basin of medicinal herbs.

It was filled with all sorts of herbs, which Chen Qingdi had instructed Xu Menghan to personally gather and purchase!

The first lesson he was going to teach Xu Menghan was herb identification. Learning to identify herbs was the first step in traditional medicine, and it was also the most crucial one.

If a physician didn’t understand herbs, they wouldn’t be able to accurately diagnose a patient’s illness, let alone prescribe the right combination of herbs for them.

"There are many types of medicinal herbs. Start by getting to know them one by one. If there’s anything you don’t understand, just ask me."

"Remember, now that you are my disciple, you must serve the people with a compassionate heart. If you ever betray this principle, I will kill you!"

Chen Qingdi spoke to Xu Menghan with extreme seriousness.

Hearing this, Xu Menghan was stunned for a moment before immediately replying, "Don’t worry, Master. I will never forget my principles!"

"Besides, my revenge is not yet complete. I will definitely stay by your side and train hard!"

Xu Menghan immediately raised her fingers and made an oath to Chen Qingdi.

Seeing how serious Xu Menghan was, Chen Qingdi said with satisfaction, "Mm, good. Since you have such resolve, then you must work hard."

"As for everything else, we’ll deal with it when the time comes."

After speaking, Chen Qingdi took out an herb and handed it to Xu Menghan.

"This herb is called Lost Heart Grass. It’s a type of Enchanting Grass. It can be used as a supplementary ingredient when refining other medicines, or it can be used as a poison. It all depends on how you use it. Every herb has different pharmacological properties and effects."

"This all depends on the physician’s understanding of the herbs and their skill. Remember, for a physician, the first step is to observe, to listen, to ask, and to touch!"

"That’s only the beginning. The methods for identifying herbs are also fourfold: distinguishing, recognizing, tasting, and touching!"

"You first learn how to distinguish them, and then I’ll teach you how to truly recognize them."

After he finished speaking, Chen Qingdi lit another cigarette.

However, at that moment,

Suddenly, a Mercedes-Benz drove right up to the clinic’s entrance.

When Chen Qingdi saw the car, his expression immediately soured.

’These rich kids have no class. Do you have to drive right up to the front door just to see a doctor?’

Chen Qingdi walked over, intending to tell them to park somewhere else.

However, as he approached, he saw Zheng Zhiyi sitting in the car.

Beside Zheng Zhiyi sat a young man dressed sharply in a suit. But seeing the man’s aura, Chen Qingdi was suddenly reminded of someone.

’But that person retired from the martial world long ago. It couldn’t be him, could it?’

As this thought crossed his mind, Chen Qingdi began to size up Li Yi.

Li Yi also noticed Chen Qingdi sizing him up, and his expression immediately darkened.

’I’m a Martial Artist, a god beyond the reach of ordinary people. How dare this commoner stare directly at me, a Martial Artist?’

’He’s courting death!’

The next second, a burst of power erupted from Li Yi, and this power stunned Chen Qingdi for a moment.

’So this guy’s a Martial Artist?’

’But he’s releasing his Gang Energy directly. Is he trying to intimidate me?’

At that thought, Chen Qingdi decided not to indulge him. An aura instantly exploded from his own body.

This aura shot toward Li Yi like a sonic wave.

Before Li Yi could even react, the aura sliced his cheek.

"A Qi Blade?"

"Who in the world are you? To be able to use a Qi Blade, an ultimate technique of a Master!"

Li Yi asked Chen Qingdi, his voice filled with astonishment.

Hearing this, Chen Qingdi let out a cold laugh and replied, "Heh, so you’re not a complete idiot. You actually recognize the Qi Blade. As for my identity, you don’t have the right to know."

After he spoke, an oppressive might erupted from Chen Qingdi’s body.

Feeling this pressure, Li Yi’s expression changed instantly, becoming extremely grave.

’His father had taught him to never be too arrogant, because you never know how powerful your opponent truly is.’

’The moment you underestimate your opponent, they will seize the opportunity to land a fatal blow.’

Now, Li Yi had run into exactly that kind of opponent in Chen Qingdi, which made him feel apprehensive.

"May I ask who you are, sir?"

"If I have disturbed you, I ask for your forgiveness."

Li Yi said to Chen Qingdi in a very sincere tone.

But when Zheng Zhiyi heard this, he grew anxious and said to Li Yi, "Brother, this is the guy who bullied me! He used his superior strength to attack me and my fiancée! You have to get justice for me!"

At these words, Li Yi’s brow furrowed. He looked at Zheng Zhiyi and said, "You’re saying this man is the one who bullied you?"

Seeing Li Yi ask, Zheng Zhiyi immediately replied, "That’s right! He’s the one who bullied me and my fiancée! He even slapped me! I’m the eldest young master of the Zheng Family! How can I let some punk like him hit me?!"

"Please, Brother, help me get justice! We absolutely can’t let this guy continue being so arrogant!"
