The Invincible Doctor of the Female Village Chief-Chapter 553: The Terrifying Sixth Master

In the Celestial Capital, there are many residences left behind by ancient generals and princes, all filled with traces of history.

Later, aside from those specifically kept by the officials, the rest were bought by wealthy merchants as their own residences.

The Meng Family happened to acquire one such residence, and just that single residence laid the foundation for the Meng Family’s past glory.

However, no matter what, it was only at the junction between the two cities, not in the East City District; in terms of value, it was significantly lacking.

But the residence of Sixth Lord could definitely be considered the most luxurious among the top ten influential figures.

Standing outside the high courtyard walls, Lord Qin Si chuckled, "It’s said this residence was once occupied by an emperor!"

"An emperor? Living here?" Liu Zixuan asked in confusion.

Ba Liang sneered, "Ancient emperors were quite indulgent. But even with their many concubines in the harem, they would get bored looking at them every day. Sometimes they would build large residences outside, housing women dear to the emperor yet hidden from the public eye. This residence is one of those!"

"It’s like a palace inside. I still remember visiting once before!" Qin Si chuckled, "Little Divine Doctor, in terms of assets, Sixth Lord is undoubtedly the wealthiest among us ten. If we manage to remove him from the Celestial Capital, we could make quite a fortune, even without considering anything else!"

"We haven’t made a move yet, so don’t start daydreaming!" Liu Zixuan grinned. If it were so easy to remove Sixth Lord, could he still be called a master manipulator? Could he still be deemed the smartest in this Celestial Capital City?

Seventh Mistress smiled with interest, "The Little Divine Doctor’s words, though blunt, make a lot of sense. We should hurry inside. Every extra minute adds another layer of uncertainty!"

In matches at the peak, both sides naturally wouldn’t bring too many people. Usually, just a few experts are enough to decide the winner!

This time, they brought six experts each for Seventh Mistress and Ba Liang, while Lord Qin Si brought ten experts.

However, all of them had already hidden at the entrance of the grand courtyard, not revealing themselves.

The group walked inside.

The gate was open, and the courtyard was brightly lit. As they entered, they saw Sixth Lord sitting in the pavilion of the main yard.

Though sitting alone, there were only three teacups placed on the table in front of him.

Seeing this, Lord Qin Si snorted coldly, "Playing these useless tricks again!"

Sixth Lord slowly turned his head, "Honored guests at the door, there are few teacups in the house, so I’m afraid the others will have to watch us drink tea!"

Lord Qin Si sat down first opposite Sixth Lord, followed closely by Seventh Mistress and Ba Liang. Just as they were about to sit, Sixth Lord smiled and said, "Apologies, but the remaining cup isn’t for you!"

Seventh Mistress and Ba Liang’s expressions immediately changed. They were clearly among the equals of Sixth Lord and Lord Qin Si, yet there was none for them!

This plainly told them that in this struggle, Sixth Lord didn’t value them at all!

Lord Qin Si frowned slightly, "Then who is this last cup of tea prepared for, Sixth Lord?"

"For many years, the various families in the Celestial Capital have been openly and secretly competing, but have never truly torn their facades."

Sixth Lord stroked his chin and looked at Liu Zixuan, "Yet this young Liu has broken the peace between the East and West City. From an unknown, unnoticed small character, he reached this point in just over half a month!" 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"At present, Lord Qin Si is my true opponent, while Seventh Mistress and Ba Liang are merely foils. In terms of rookie rising speed, only Liu Zixuan stands out, so this cup of tea is naturally for young Liu to drink!"

Upon hearing these words, the expressions of Lord Qin Si and the duo of Seventh Mistress and Ba Liang grew even gloomier.

Obviously, Sixth Lord’s simple provocation struck precisely their vulnerability!

Using the word "foil" directly belittled Seventh Mistress and Ba Liang, and then mentioning Liu Zixuan’s rapid rise and considerable strength blatantly insulted all three of them.

With such a provocation, they had no words to retort!

"Sixth Lord does treat me well!"

Liu Zixuan smiled upon hearing this, took the last seat, and sniffed the teacup in front of him, "A delightful aroma, the tea color hit just right."

"Go ahead and take a sip, it might surprise you even more!" Sixth Lord lifted his own teacup and took a sip.

Liu Zixuan smiled meaningfully, "I don’t know about surprise, but I’m afraid there might be shock."

Pointing at the teacup, he spoke deliberately, "The tea is good, but the Bone-Eroding Powder inside isn’t a good thing, Sixth Lord. I just gave your daughter a few kisses, does it warrant this special treatment?"

The word "special" was almost squeezed through Liu Zixuan’s teeth.

With the Holy Medical Scripture, no poison could escape Liu Zixuan’s eyes, let alone the one in this teacup.

Crack!

Lord Qin Si immediately smashed the teacup in front of him on the ground, though the color of the tea didn’t change, and he frowned, about to curse.

Sixth Lord interjected, "Qin Si, Qin Si, I believe even you don’t deserve a seat here. Look at young Liu, knowingly facing poisonous tea with calm; yet your cup had no poison, and you still panic, do you still have any demeanor of a great figure?"

This provocation subtly turned into an undermining strategy.

Only poisoning Liu Zixuan’s cup, yet Lord Qin Si angrily smashed his, effectively proving he was lesser than Liu Zixuan, with no demeanor of a great figure.

This action elevated Liu Zixuan, indirectly telling Lord Qin Si, Seventh Mistress, and Ba Liang that Liu Zixuan was beyond their control, and even if they beat him, they’d eventually be played to death by him!

With just three cups of tea, two strategies were employed, directly seizing the hearts of the three tycoons!

Liu Zixuan thought to himself and clapped his hands, "Truly worthy of being called the master manipulator Sixth Lord; with just a few words, they were all intimidated!"

"Hahaha!"

Sixth Lord laughed heartily, "You, young Liu, understand me best."

"Hmph! Drink what tea?"

Ba Liang immediately kicked the table over, "The facades are already torn, why pretend here? Sixth Lord, summon your people, for this day next year will be your death anniversary!"

"I just dislike dealing with brutes like you!"

Sixth Lord slowly stood up and gave Liu Zixuan a warm smile, "Let me first crush these mad dogs, then slowly discuss how you bullied my daughter!"

Liu Zixuan’s lips curled slightly, "Just afraid when the time comes, you won’t bear to strike me!"

"Rest assured, I’ll let you... and you all walk into this courtyard!" Sixth Lord’s originally warm smile froze, then he shouted fiercely, "Come greet the guests!"
