The bald old man was already on the verge of tears in his heart...
With his experience, how could he not see that the two iron badge law enforcers had actually taken sixty Amethyst? Moreover, you just returned to the Chu Family and your cultivation level is completely gone, you're a waste; would the Chu Family really take out three hundred Amethyst for you?
This must be a joke, right?
But the other party was indeed extorting them, and they were not only in the wrong but also needed help!
What if they didn’t pay? What to do?
Not only he saw through it, but Qin Baoshan was certainly no fool. He realized it too, but seeing it was one thing, whether to comply was another.
Now, they had been forced to the edge of a cliff.
They had no choice but to comply.
The two exchanged a glance and both shook their heads in frustration. The bald old man's lips moved slightly as he sent a voice transmission, “Old Qin, we’ve really taken a fall this time. We’ve been completely extorted by this brat… What I don’t understand is why he was so scared just now, how did he switch roles so quickly? As soon as he heard we needed him, he immediately turned against us? This... this is simply a rogue!”
Qin Baoshan sighed and replied, “Can’t you see? Just listen to his childhood story; he grew up directly in a den of rogues… Those street thugs are not just about bravado... If he didn’t act like this, that would be strange…”
The bald old man nodded repeatedly, “That makes sense… Brother Qin, you really observe things closely.”
He then asked, “Now, we can only take out the Amethyst first to stabilize this brat, then let him treat your injury, and then… hmm?”
Qin Baoshan sighed slightly, “Let’s take it step by step. If he heals the injury and accepts our favor, but then turns against us... wouldn’t that be ungrateful? Not to mention, how would I deal with my inner demon?”
A fierce light flashed in the bald old man’s eyes, “Let’s talk about this later.”
Qin Baoshan guessed what he intended to do but sighed, “Do as you see fit.”
Just then, Chu Yang finally returned to his senses from that emotional state and said, “Senior, if it’s alright, I’ll take a look at your injury first to understand the situation.”
Qin Baoshan rejoiced, “Then I really cannot trouble Chu Divine Doctor any longer.”
Chu Yang sighed and spoke with feigned sincerity, “A doctor has the heart of a parent. After all, just watching the old senior suffer is hard for me to bear.” The bald old man suddenly turned his head away and coughed into his hand.
! Your so-called heart of a doctor is exchanged for three hundred Amethyst! Even the Great Protector of Medicine Valley isn’t this greedy...
“Please relax, senior. Dispense with your protective mystical energy. Otherwise, I won’t be able to diagnose clearly with my depleted strength.” Chu Yang said calmly.
Qin Baoshan complied. In his own territory, there was really nothing to fear.
Watching Qin Baoshan uncover the wounded area, Chu Yang reached out, and his fingers gently pressed inward.
Qin Baoshan let out a muffled grunt. He felt as if those two fingers had directly dug into his flesh, penetrating into his internal organs. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he truly wouldn’t have believed they could go in without breaking the skin.
It seemed as if every tendon and every bone was being gripped and pulled by those two fingers.
Despite Qin Baoshan's exceptional cultivation level and pain tolerance, he still let out a muffled groan, his face turning pale as sweat droplets the size of soybeans dripped down.
Chu Yang finally withdrew his fingers, frowning deeply.
Seeing his heavy expression, both the bald old man and Qin Baoshan felt a wave of anxiety, and could not help but ask, “Chu Divine Doctor, is there a problem?”
“Quite troublesome!” Chu Yang frowned as he looked at Qin Baoshan, anger flickering in his eyes but seemingly reluctant to show it; he finally sighed, “How could you… be so reckless?!”
