My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 890: Have Your Valley Master Come Out to Welcome Me

Ye Guichen and his group traveled for a whole day and night, and after resting for a night in the Medicine King Mountain, they finally arrived at the Medicine King Valley around noon the next day.

The area outside Medicine King Valley bustled with people, more lively than usual.

From a distance, Medicine King Valley resembled a giant funnel, with only one entrance at the front end of the funnel.

However, the entrance to Medicine King Valley was now crowded with people, seemingly checking those who wished to enter.

"Mr. Ye, it seems this time Medicine King Valley has summoned quite a bit of help, what's your plan?" Lou Shanguan said, watching those entering Medicine King Valley, his eyebrows furrowing unconsciously.

Though he was ordered by the Wudang Sect Leader to lend Ye Guichen a hand, he had never seen Ye Guichen in action, nor knew what his methods were, only that Ye Guichen was highly regarded by Zhang Chonglou.

He respected Ye Guichen greatly, largely on account of Zhang Chonglou.

In Lou Shanguan's view, though they came ostensibly to seek an explanation from Medicine King Valley, it was unrealistic to think they could truly do anything to it.

After all, Medicine King Valley had deep roots, likely housing over a thousand disciples, among whom many were masters.

There might even be many Half-step Masters hidden within.

Moreover, due to the recent expulsion order from the Sunan Mansion, all the Medicine King Valley disciples dispersed outside also returned to the Valley, so the actual number of people in Medicine King Valley might have exceeded two thousand.

Attempting to take on such a massive entity with merely dozens of people was simply impossible.

Now, Medicine King Valley had also issued a call for help, and many were drawn by the Dan medicine that could enhance cultivation. If a conflict erupted, these Wudang disciples might all be accounted for here.

So ultimately, although Lou Shanguan appeared to be helping Ye Guichen, in essence, he was also subtly directed by the Wudang Sect Leader to negotiate peace with Medicine King Valley.

Should the Daoist sect be able to pressure Medicine King Valley into abandoning the darkness for light, naturally, all could be forgiven and forgotten.

This was, in fact, the sentiment of many other sects as well.

Medicine King Valley, after all, was located in a remote area. Wiping it out would be a loss for the entire Hua Country, and wasn't very practical either.

The idea of Shennong Sect rising to replace Medicine King Valley to become the leader in the field of traditional Chinese medicine was seen as a joke to many.

Shennong Sect had been declining for decades, even the sect had become a ruin, and for such a small sect to replace Medicine King Valley in a short time was unbelievable to most.

Therefore, in attitudes towards Medicine King Valley, whether from aristocratic families or the sects, there was not the same resolute approach as there was towards Eternal Life Hall, but rather an ambiguous attitude—if matters could be minimized or resolved quietly, that would be best.

"Mr. Ye, there's something I'm not sure I should say," After hesitating for a while, Lou Shanguan cautiously spoke up, as if afraid of touching Ye Guichen's sensitive nerves, quickly adding, "I know you are formidable in both martial arts and medicine, and as the sect leader of Shennong Sect, you wish to utterly overthrow Medicine King Valley to allow your sect to rise. But as you've seen, Medicine King Valley is well-rooted and not something our group can easily handle. If we could achieve a win-win situation, we should avoid conflict this time, don't you think?"

Throughout the journey, Ye Guichen had actually guessed Lou Shanguan's intentions from his occasional words.

He simply hadn't pointed it out.

"Master Lou, I understand your point. Medicine King Valley's status differs from Eternal Life Hall. In fact, Medicine King Valley still holds certain utility within both martial arts and secular worlds. Completely falling out with Medicine King Valley would benefit no one, right?"

Lou Shanguan didn't expect Ye Guichen to be so perceptive, scratching his head awkwardly, "Haha, Mr. Ye, you truly are remarkable, understanding my meaning at once."

Ye Guichen, however, merely shook his head with a smile, "Master Lou, but I want to make things clear to you. Understanding your point is one thing, but how to proceed is up to me. I know that you Daoists are not so determined in dealing with Medicine King Valley, only pressured by Zhang Chonglou. I understand your predicament, so I don't blame you, but I simply wish to settle things for Shennong Sect, and for Ti'er Taoist. If Medicine King Valley can give me a satisfactory answer, I naturally won't pursue further action, but otherwise, I am not easily appeased."

With that, he started walking toward Medicine King Valley.

Su Tong hurriedly followed.

However, upon seeing Medicine King Valley, Su Tong's emotions became complex.

He tightly followed Ye Guichen's side, whispering, "Sect Leader, what do you plan to do? Though I know that our Shennong Sect's downfall back then must have been due to Medicine King Valley's deceitful acts, likely orchestrated by their current Valley Master Hua Fengnu, we have no evidence. Even if directly questioned, they would likely deny it."

Ye Guichen glanced at Su Tong, "Uncle, do you know why I insisted on bringing you to Medicine King Valley?"

Su Tong was taken aback, looking at Ye Guichen in surprise, "Isn't it to seek an explanation from Medicine King Valley?"

"Wrong!" Ye Guichen's gaze burned bright, "Though I am not too familiar with the past grievances between Shennong Sect and Medicine King Valley, I did hear Master mention that Medicine King Valley is no longer fit to be the leading sect in Chinese medicine. They have long abandoned our fundamental mission of saving lives through medicine, existing solely for profit. This visit to Medicine King Valley is not just for Shennong Sect, but to hold them accountable to the field of Chinese medicine. Moreover, how dare they target Ti'er—that is something I cannot tolerate. If they are willing to admit their wrongdoing and hand over those responsible for harming Ti'er, I might spare them once; otherwise, today marks the end for Medicine King Valley."

"Sect Leader, you..." Su Tong looked at Ye Guichen's back, suddenly feeling his blood boil.

In the past, before Shennong Sect's decline, Su Tong had numerous dealings with Medicine King Valley and had even come here several times for exchanges and learning.

But this visit felt completely different.

Previously, they were friends; now, they were foes.

"Stop!"

Just as they reached the valley entrance, someone sternly reprimanded Ye Guichen.

Many seemed to recognize Ye Guichen, pointing and whispering about him and Su Tong.

"This guy seems to be Ye Guichen!"

"Haha, didn't expect he'd actually come. I heard he's now the Sect Leader of Shennong Sect."

"Yeah, Shennong Sect is now lesser than even a small sect, do they really think they can contend with Medicine King Valley? Haha, they truly overestimate themselves."

"Let's see what this kid intends to do."

"I reckon he's here to make peace with Medicine King Valley. After all, if Medicine King Valley keeps suppressing Shennong Sect, they'll probably never recover."

Voices of doubt began to rise.

Ye Guichen looked at the person who had reprimanded him.

The person wore a robe with the character "Medicine" embroidered on the front, likely a disciple of Medicine King Valley.

Ye Guichen walked up to him, "Have your Valley Master come out to greet me!"
