Ding Hui temporarily revived two patients suffering from a deadly poison, earning praise for her miraculous skills. While the patients thanked her, Ding Hui instructed them to return daily for further treatment of the underlying condition. Fang Yu arrived with corpses for Ding Hui to examine, revealing a shrunken heart as the cause of death. Ding Hui's unconventional examination methods, including dissecting a corpse, drew mixed reactions, but those near death eagerly volunteered for her experimental treatments as her reputation in Da Liang City grew.

Before the news broke.

Everyone who was poisoned was in the stage of waiting for death, even the wealthy found that no amount of money could save them, watching helplessly as their bodies gradually deteriorated with no cure!

In such a hopeless situation, a Divine Doctor suddenly appeared, capable of bringing back patients on the brink of death. How could this not stir people’s emotions and cause a sensation?

Boiling with excitement.

The entire city was in an uproar!

A massive wave of people rushed frantically towards the Foolish Underworld.

At the entrance of the Foolish Underworld, a sea of people gathered, forming a dense, oppressive mass.

Even Hong Yanxia had no choice but to personally come out, station herself at the entrance, and manage the crowd, explaining the situation.

Yet, she still couldn’t withstand the people’s fervor.

Who doesn’t have someone poisoned at home? Under a large-scale indiscriminate poisoning, a few were fortunate to escape, but the rest of the family wasn’t so lucky.

Therefore, almost everyone in the city had a dire need for a cure.

The only hope for salvation now rested with the newly arrived Divine Doctor, driving them to madness.

"Master Hong! Master Hong, it’s me! Li Shaohua! We’ve met at the Spiritual Gourd Building! I’m willing to pay, and pay dearly, begging Master Hong to let me in to see the Divine Doctor!"

"What are you saying! Just because you have money doesn’t mean I don’t! Make way! I, Qi Buzui, am willing to gift all my taverns to the Divine Doctor, just to save my entire family!"

"Only two taverns, quite the boast! Does Master Hong remember me? I am from the Fan Family, my grandfather even drank with the Lord of Mansion of the Foolish Underworld before. Please, Master Hong, grant me the favor of meeting the Divine Doctor. Master Hong should know the strength of the Fan Family, we wouldn’t disappoint the Divine Doctor!"

With so many people, some started shouting slogans.

Each offer was higher than the last, but to actually make them fulfill those promises, it certainly wouldn’t be just as simple as a meeting.

Most likely, only if the patients were completely cured would they deliver on their promises.

According to the information now available to Hong Yanxia, Divine Doctor Ding had only temporarily stabilized the condition. Whether the toxicity could be fully neutralized was still an unknown.

Therefore, Hong Yanxia let those promises pass from one ear out the other, not taking them seriously at all.

What’s more, if she dared to open the back and let someone sneak in, others would follow suit, how many people would they have to let into the Foolish Underworld then?

Just maintaining order on site was already giving her a headache, how could she afford to increase the burden and workload on the Foolish Underworld?

"Go back! Please go back! Divine Doctor Ding is still researching the antidote, and currently has no time to see outsiders. If she has any needs, or if the research on the antidote progresses, necessitating other patients, the Foolish Underworld will help make a public announcement, then you can bring patients who match the condition!"

Hong Yanxia loudly conveyed the situation, delivering the message.

However, it was to no avail.

What does it mean to be in the research phase? And so what if it’s in the research phase?

Some who were almost at death’s door were seen walking lively out of the Foolish Underworld, reuniting with family on the streets.

Such medical prowess, such results, it was clear they could well be treating others!

Previously, there was no choice, with the poison deep in their bones, they were hopeless and directly taken by the Foolish Underworld for cremation.

Now there’s a Divine Doctor, who still wants their relatives to await death like this?

Moreover, those not yet taken into the Foolish Underworld were in slightly better condition than those waiting to die, with more chances for successful treatment.

Most people thought this way, therefore Hong Yanxia’s words only made the crowd more agitated.

Until Hong Yanxia saw the situation getting increasingly chaotic, her face turned cold seeing some team members being pushed and injured by the crowd.

With a clang, she drew her sword!

"Foolish Underworld members, draw swords!"

At her command, the team members, who had been passively maintaining order, drew their swords one after another.

The glint of swords and lightsabers flickered before the crowd, slightly calming them down, barely quelling the commotion.

"I understand everyone wants to see Divine Doctor Ding, but Divine Doctor Ding is currently fully devoted to researching the detoxification method. Meeting you all would only waste Divine Doctor Ding’s time. If Divine Doctor Ding achieves any new progress, the Foolish Underworld will naturally announce it to the public, please be patient and wait."

Hard power speaks the truth.

Although the crowd was disgruntled, seeing the Foolish Underworld draw swords, they could only retreat with a belly full of complaints.

"What do you mean inconvenient to see anyone? If you ask me, isn’t it that Foolish Underworld wants to monopolize the Divine Doctor’s results, using the Detoxification Agent to dictate the entire Da Liang City!"

"What else can we do, the Divine Doctor is in the Foolish Underworld, we can’t just storm in."

"Alas, this Da Liang City might end up belonging to Foolish Underworld in the future."

"That’s not what worries me, I fear that Foolish Underworld will withhold the antidote, and that would be the worst. If my family members die because of it, I will destroy the Foolish Underworld, even at the cost of my life!"

The crowd began to disperse, leaving only a few who persisted.

But this number was already within the manageable range for the Foolish Underworld, so Hong Yanxia did not have to personally guard the entrance, preventing any potential sneaking in.

Yet this good mood lasted only for a while, because...
