However, they are also perceptive.
They don’t have many years left to live, so naturally, they care even less about these false reputations.
As for Ding Hui’s reputation as a Divine Doctor, they had already heard the rumors.
Without the Lin Family’s notes, he was actually able to suppress the Water Poison, alleviate the conditions of critically ill patients, and even miraculously restore body functions to the point where patients could walk as normal.
Even if it only lasted for a day, in their eyes, such methods were nothing short of miraculous.
In medical skill, the capable come first!
Immediately, the two elders respectfully saluted and said.
"Greetings, Lord Ding!"
"Greetings, Divine Doctor Ding!"
Even though Ding Hui was much younger in age, they didn’t find anything inappropriate about it.
"You, how far have you gotten in your research on this notebook?"
Ding Hui collected the remnants of the notebook in his hand and asked directly.
The two old men exchanged glances and began to slowly elaborate on their research progress, thoughts, directions, leaving nothing out.
From discovering the remnants of the notebook, to conducting targeted research, to experiencing multiple failures, wandering aimlessly without direction, and finally to the Water of Tranquility.
They thought of many possibilities and hit numerous walls.
But after Ding Hui’s brief pointers, these thoughts and researches made the two old men feel ashamed.
"From the start, you shouldn’t have considered the compatibility of the Heartblade Flower and the Sea-infused Core Root. Water Poison, Water Poison, water is the element of all things..."
Ding Hui spoke in esoteric terms, while Fang Yu and Nanyuan En, father and son, listened beside him with bewildered eyes, finding it rather dry.
But the two old men, the more they listened, the brighter their eyes became. In the end, despite their age, they grew excited and trembled.
"Lord Ding, your insights are truly remarkable!"
"Lord Ding, if you had been present at the time, we wouldn’t have wasted so much time!"
Looks like Ding Hui just gained himself two fanboys...
However, with the correct answers in hand, Ding Hui’s research progress was indeed unmatched by others.
In terms of talent, Ding Hui was at the top level in this field.
"Lord Ding, this way! Let me take you to our Alchemy Room!"
"Lord Ding, could you repeat that idea you just mentioned, a little slower this time? I didn’t quite manage to memorize it..."
How is this assisting? It’s clearly two students learning from a mentor on a project.
"Husband, I’ll head to the Alchemy Room first."
As Ding Hui left, she didn’t forget to greet Fang Yu, showing her eagerness to get started.
Previously, she was only able to alleviate symptoms, and that probably didn’t satisfy her. Now with the Water Poison research notes in hand, she couldn’t wait to concoct a perfect antidote.
Fang Yu waved his hand to acknowledge.
As they left, only Fang Yu and the Nanyuan En father and son were left in the room.
For a moment, the three of them exchanged glances, and no one spoke.
Finally, Fang Yu was the first to cup his hands and say.
"If there’s nothing else, I shall take my leave."
"Wait!" Nanyuan Xian said.
"Just now, seeing Young Master Diao’s skill was truly astonishing. With such abilities, would Young Master Diao have any interest... in assuming the position of instructor at our Nanyuan family?"
"Instructor?"
Fang Yu was taken aback.
Being a Minister isn’t enough, you also want me to train your soldiers?
Fang Yu was about to refuse when he heard Nanyuan Xian say, "We won’t let Young Master Diao work for nothing. Our Nanyuan family’s library houses countless martial arts, and should you accept this position, you may freely peruse the martial arts within."
"Father?!"
Hearing Nanyuan Xian’s offer, Fang Yu hadn’t reacted yet, but Nanyuan En had already expressed his astonishment.
The Nanyuan family’s library contains unique martial arts, things not meant for outsiders.
If it were just a couple of levels, that’d be one thing; but from the third level and above, there are some unique or important martial arts, diligently acquired by the Nanyuan family. Even family members need to earn merits or hold certain status to be granted learning opportunities.
Now, opening it to outsiders in this way, even if Nanyuan En has no objections, other Nanyuan family members might have something to say.
Not to mention that the Nanyuan family’s library has only been open to Nanyuan members, and there’s never been a precedent for a guest elder to enter. Such a decision seems a bit hasty...
Nanyuan En was still lost in thought when he saw his father, Nanyuan Xian, place a hand on his shoulder.
"Young Master Diao, to be honest, I have only this son under my knee. Besides being an instructor, I hope you will teach my unaccomplished son well so that he can advance further on the path of Martial Arts!"
Nanyuan Xian’s expression was serious, clearly, that was the reason he was willing to open his private study to Fang Yu.
How could Fang Yu not understand such intentions?
The Nanyuan Family’s Martial Arts are definitely far inferior to those of the Five Great Families of Tianyuan Town.
But, as one of the giants of Da Liang City now, perhaps the Nanyuan Family has some special Martial Arts worth learning?
Thinking about it, Fang Yu agreed.
"No problem, teaching one person is teaching, teaching a group is also teaching, I will surely instruct Young Master Nanyuan well."
"That’s good! Ah En, why are you still standing there? Quickly, pay your respects to your instructor!"
"Instructor? Wait a minute! I didn’t..." Fang Yu was about to speak when Nanyuan En had already smartly kneeled towards Fang Yu.
"Instructor, above, receive my..."
Thud!
Nanyuan En’s knee, on its way down, was stopped by Fang Yu’s toe, keeping it slightly above the ground.
Just that little bit of distance, yet Nanyuan En couldn’t kneel down.
"An instructor is just an instructor, don’t drag in instructor titles, Nanyuan Xian, if you keep joking like this, I will turn my face."
Fang Yu said coldly.
"Hahaha! What’s to say, Instructor Diao, it was just a joke. Ah En, get up and call Instructor Diao!"
"Yes, yes! Greetings, Instructor Diao!"
Nanyuan Xian hurriedly stood up, his expression a bit ashamed and embarrassed.
He was like a puppet on strings, manipulated by his father.
"Instructor Diao, just teach my son well, and don’t worry about anything else. Ah En, why are you still standing there? Quickly take Instructor Diao to the library to familiarize him with our Nanyuan Family’s Martial Arts, so it’s convenient for Instructor Diao to guide your Martial Arts!"
"Yes, yes! Instructor Diao, this way please."
By this time, how could Nanyuan En not know what his father wanted, so he naturally cooperated vigorously.
Fang Yu, at this time, looking at Nanyuan Xian and then at Nanyuan En, pondered a bit, and uttered two words.
"Lead the way."
With the words uttered, the father and son’s faces flashed with joy almost simultaneously, but quickly suppressed it.
Nanyuan En immediately, bowing and scraping, led the way ahead.
Nanyuan Xian looked at the two departing figures, feeling immense satisfaction.
His son, has great fortune!
The right time, place, and people, all are in their favor!
The Lin Family’s fortune has ended, this is the right time!
The Water Poison calamity in Da Liang City is the beneficial place!
Instructor Diao willing to impart Martial Arts is having the right people!
What a fortuitous fate this is!
What a coincidence this is!
As if heaven was favoring him! As if fortune was entwined!
This Da Liang City is destined to fall into the hands of the Nanyuan Family.
And the Nanyuan Family is destined to flourish in his son’s hands, surpassing the predecessors!
As for Instructor Diao and Divine Doctor Ding, they are like invisible forces arranged by fate to assist his son in ascending to the throne of glory!
"A sign of great auspiciousness!"
Nanyuan Xian excitedly clenched his fist secretly.
His years are nearly over, his opportunities scattered, no hope of Martial Arts advancement, all hopes, and all future aspirations must be bet on the next generation.
Suppressing the excitement within, Nanyuan Xian began to secretly ponder how Divine Doctor Ding could develop the Water Poison Antidote, how they could maneuver their Nanyuan Family, arranging various details, even considering who to pull into their alliance, and who to be wary of, all quickly crossed his mind.
Soon, Nanyuan Xian had a plan and a thought, and began calling in manpower.
"Big Brother."
It was the Third Elder of the Nanyuan Family, Nanyuan Shi.
"Third brother, once night falls, you arrange some people, bring along buckets, stealthily collect several barrels of poison water from the lake, and store them in the warehouses of several shops under our name, hoarding them up."
