Fang Yu sneered with a curl of his lips.
He held no fondness for Song Xi at all. Instead of Ding Hui expending effort to preserve that fellow's life, it might be preferable for him to perish.
Yet, employing that individual as a test subject for Ding Hui changed the equation entirely.
Regardless, Fang Yu's priority was ensuring Ding Hui's contentment.
Matters such as Ding Hui's own security fell squarely on Fang Yu's shoulders to safeguard.
"By the way, did you gather any information from the Forest Snake Gang?"
Ding Hui inquired abruptly, yanking Fang Yu's mind back to the present.
The mention of the Forest Snake Gang instantly energized Fang Yu.
Earlier, Ding Hui had doubted his capability to manage the situation.
With success now in hand, Fang Yu eagerly itched to boast about it.
He spared no details, narrating his entire ordeal within the Forest Snake Gang to Ding Hui.
Finally, he raised his brows playfully.
"How about it? Didn't I manage it brilliantly!"
Ding Hui mulled over his words thoughtfully.
"Couldn't it be that the man is truly the Forest Snake Gang's authentic leader, merely lying to shield himself?"
Fang Yu had indeed pondered that angle, grilling the man with numerous precise queries that largely verified his impersonation as the boss.
Moreover, should Ding Hui's suspicion hold true, Fang Yu had already gauged the man's strength, rendering him an easy opponent to dispatch.
"Relax, everything's firmly in my grasp!"
Fang Yu declared with unwavering assurance.
A few years back, during her days wandering the world, Ding Hui might have countered his bravado with mocking scorn, demanding empirical proof of the truth.
Yet today, she simply drew nearer to Fang Yu bearing an enigmatic grin. Moments later, her sharp ears detected his pulse racing abruptly.
Her grin broadened further as she murmured gently, "Then we'll proceed exactly as per your strategy!"
Fang Yu feigned composure, though Ding Hui's proximity still flushed his cheeks with heat.
"Tomorrow, we'll reach out to the Rebel Army first, then head to the Forest Snake Gang. Once we've crushed the Forest Snake Gang, we'll establish it as our outpost to covertly probe Thunder City's affairs."
Fang Yu's scheme possessed solid structure.
Still, Ding Hui perceived it as rather basic and rough around the edges.
No issue though—she had his back.
The man handles external affairs, the woman manages the internal ones; at times, Diao Deyi ought to get his moment to shine.
Ding Hui fluttered her eyelids and gazed upward at Fang Yu, who bore her while bounding swiftly over the rooftops.
Bathed in moonlight, his familiar features appeared even more attractive—maybe... strikingly dashing?
…
Within the clinic.
Divine Doctor Ding's exit propelled the scholarly little clinic to its bustling zenith.
Lacking Ding Hui's oversight, the esteemed physicians swarmed toward Song Xi with keen interest.
Under the pretext of examining Song Xi's state, they yearned to dissect every remnant of Ding Hui's work on the patient, aiming to unravel her techniques.
Spotting traces of demon ingredients or noting shifts in Song Xi's physiology elicited awed exclamations from them.
Resembling kids unboxing a fresh plaything, they scrambled to uncover any vestiges of Ding Hui's masterful healing arts.
"Incredible! His entire form brims with poisonous blood, but no poisoning effects manifest—not a single symptom!"
"Medicine and toxin in flawless equilibrium! Such precision demands profound mastery over drugs and venoms to attain near-perfect balance! I've heard only Capital City's legendary healers possess this; for us, any imitation risks catastrophe, as the tiniest error tips the scales, dooming the patient instantly!"
"Captain Song! Captain Song, permit me to remain too! I swear I won't lay a finger on her, same as everyone else—I won't touch at all! Merely observe! Just observe!"
Certain doctors gained permission to linger, others got ushered away.
Since Ding Hui had steadied Song Xi's health, Song Zhenrong refused to risk mishaps.
Only those vetted by Miracle Doctor Mo—flawless in integrity and healing principles—were permitted to remain, tasked with vigilant oversight of Song Xi.
Typically, post-rescue with mere maintenance and check-ups ahead, such luminaries wouldn't spare a look.
Aiding in these lowly duties of adhering to prescriptions they scorned as unworthy of their stature.
Engaging once brands one as lesser in their elite cadre.
Thus, these unskilled chores of patient tending via prescribed regimens usually fall to disciples or kin.
But this circumstance diverged completely.
Renowned and exceptional doctors from Thunder City were now frantically competing for this chance, even though it diminished their prestigious status.
The greater a doctor's fame and expertise, the more eagerly they pursued this opportunity.
In contrast, mediocre doctors with only minor reputations felt uneasy and baffled, unable to fathom why far superior physicians were clamoring for it.
Regardless, with Song Zhenrong there, untrusted doctors were quickly turned away. Some left unwillingly, vowing to return tomorrow, but to no effect.
