Gu Qingluan stood up.
He Lianjun asked, “Brother Jun, where are you going?”
“To solve a problem.” Gu Qingluan walked straight to the two of them, holding up the token given to her by Fourth Master Tang. “I’m a friend of Fourth Master Tang Si. Please let him know that 1 might be able to detoxify those who were poisoned today.”
The Shadow Tower disciples, who had been hostile to Gu Qingluan and Gu Lingxue, were momentarily stunned when they saw the token in Gu Qingluan’s hand. Their expressions changed, and the two of them exchanged glances. “Please wait, Your Excellency.”
One of them hurried off to find Fourth Master Tang.
Shortly after, Fourth Master Tang rushed over.
“1 knew it was you!” Fourth Master Tang recognized her and showed a knowing smile.
Gu Qingluan raised an eyebrow.
“Do you really have a way to detoxify them?”
Gu Qingluan didn’t make any extravagant claims, “I can give it a try.”
Looking at the situation, if they didn’t detoxify the poisoned individuals, they might be stuck here all night.
Gu Qingluan didn’t want to waste time here.
“Alright, 1’11 take you to try. Just do your best. Besides you, there are many masters proficient in medicine inside.”
Fourth Master Tang led Gu Qingluan to a loft.
Inside the loft, there were many simple beds, each with a person lying on it.
Apart from their unpoisoned companions guarding them, the rest were members of the Shadow Tower and alchemists.
Seeing Fourth Master Tang bringing someone in, everyone just glanced briefly and didn’t pay much attention.
A middle-aged man dressed like Fourth Master Tang was talking to an elderly man, and a pretty girl stood beside the old man.
Gu Qingluan recognized these two as the grandfather and granddaughter pair from before.
Fourth Master Tang led her over to them and asked the middle-aged man, “Hall Master Lin, have you developed an antidote?”
“Not yet.” the middle-aged man, who was none other than Lin Zilong, the hall master of the Shadow Tower, shook his head. “Why did you come here? Weren’t you stationed at the Hundred Treasures Pavilion?”
Fourth Master Tang introduced Gu Qingluan to Hall Master Lin, saying, “Hall Master Lin, this is Mr. Jun. He is highly skilled in medicine and has considerable expertise in detoxification. How about letting him give it a try?” The young girl asked sharply, “I wonder which clan Mr. Jun is from?”
“A small and insignificant sect, not worth mentioning.”
The girl sneered and turned to Fourth Master Tang. “Fourth Master Tangr, what is the meaning of this? Do you not trust our Canghai Palace? Bringing in some nameless nobody! Can he really cure what Canghai Palace can’t?!”
Among the impressive physicians she knew, there was no one with the surname Jun. This person, despite wearing a mask, appeared quite young. What abilities could they possibly have?
“This…” Fourth Master Tang looked troubled.
He hadn’t expected this young girl from Canghai Palace to come forward and oppose the idea.
“Yin’er! Mind your manners!” The white-haired old man scolded.
The girl rolled her eyes. “I’m just speaking the truth!”
The old man’s face darkened slightly. “There are always greater talents. Remember not to be arrogant. Don’t underestimate others.”
After scolding his granddaughter, he turned to Gu Qingluan and apologized. Although his words were polite, his attitude still carried a hint of arrogance.
With his status, there were very few people on the entire continent who required him to lower his stature.
Both he and his granddaughter essentially looked down on Gu Qingluan, an unknown “youngster”.
Gu Qingluan responded with composure, “I’ve heard that Canghai Palace is renowned for its medical expertise. The young lady’s confidence is well-founded.”
She didn’t take offense at their words and turned to Fourth Master Tang. “May 1 examine the condition of the poisoned individuals?”
Fourth Master Tang was about to speak, but Hall Master Lin spoke first, “We appreciate your goodwill, Mr. Jun, but we have the expertise of Hai Sheng, the grand physician of Canghai Palace, and Master Liu Jiangcheng of the Alchemist Guild here. We believe they will soon develop an antidote. It won’t be necessary to trouble you.”
A nameless and faceless youth trying to show off his skills was not something they took seriously..
