"Xuanling Yao Clan?"
Hearing Zhao Wuji say the name Xuanling Yao family, everyone present immediately fell silent.
Everyone present knew about the Yao family.
Because they knew, they knew how high the status of the Yao clan was.
Currently, there were two ways to save people on Earth. One was Western medicine, and the other was Chinese medicine from Great Xia.
Unlike Western medicine, which had only risen in the past century, Chinese medicine had already risen in Great Xia ever since the establishment of Great Xia.
It had flourished for thousands of years.
Even with the rise of modern medicine, countless people would think of the era of modern medicine when they heard about doctors.
The status of alternative medicine was still unshakable.
The reason was simple.
There were countless terminal illnesses. Although Western medicine could treat them, it could only treat the symptoms and not the root cause. Even if they were cured, they would not live for long.
Young people who were also terminally ill could live up to ten years if they were treated with Western medicine, but if they were treated with Chinese medicine, they could live for decades.
There were even many terminal illnesses that Western medicine couldn't cure. Some powerful Chinese doctors could cure them. Even if they couldn't cure them, they could still extend their lives for a few years.
Chinese medicine originated from the herbalists.
The Yao family held countless extremely precious prescriptions. In fact, eight out of ten of all the Chinese medicine practitioners in Great Xia came from the Yao family or were related to the Yao family.
With so many national doctors, the Yao family was equivalent to controlling the health of countless people.
Hence, the Yao family was the family that no one wanted to offend in Great Xia or even the entire Earth.
If it was any other force, even if it was a powerful aristocratic family.
After Old Master Zhao's life was extended, the Zhao family relied on Old Master Zhao's prestige to dare to clash with the other party and let the other party know that the resources of the Zhao family were not so easy to obtain.
However, if it was the Yao family, the Zhao family would have to give out the resources.
If he did not send them off, with the Yao family's influence, it was enough to make countless forces become enemies with the Zhao family.
The Zhao family might even fall out of the position of an aristocratic family because of this, and it was even possible that they would be wiped out.
"That's not right, big brother. Does the Yao family have the ability to extend father's life?”
"Didn't we previously find a country master from the Yao clan to oversee the Imperial City to show father?”
"That national expert said that father's lifespan has reached its end, that he's reaching the end of his life, and that no means can cure him.”
"It's also because of his words that we found the top international western medicine to treat Father, hoping for a miracle.”
"Could it be that the national champion is lying to us? He actually has a way to extend my father's life, but the price is 30% of our Zhao family's assets?”
Zhao Xuankun suddenly thought of something, his gaze carrying a trace of coldness as he looked at Zhao Wuji.
"He didn't lie to us. Father's life is indeed coming to an end.”
Zhao Wuji shook his head.
"Since we have already reached the end, what right does the Yao family have to extend father's life?”
Zhao Xuankun frowned and asked.
"The Yao family has been passed down for five thousand years.”
"The method that the Yao family used to extend my father's life was a divine medicine that the Yao family had treasured for countless years. This divine medicine has the ability to extend one's lifespan. After consuming it, even a dying person can forcefully live for three to ten years.”
Zhao Wuji said.
"This Yao family wouldn't be using this excuse to deceive my Zhao family, right? After all, how could such a divine medicine exist in the world?”
Zhao Xuankun asked.
"I also think that this must be a lie from the Yao family. A medicine can give people longevity. Isn't this similar to the immortal medicine in novels and movies? Our world isn't some extraordinary world, so how could there be such divine medicine?”
"That's right. A single herb can extend a person's lifespan by several years or even several decades. This is too ridiculous. This must be an excuse. The Yao family could clearly diagnose and treat him, but they just had to say that he was about to die.”
"Not necessarily. What if there are secrets in the world that we don't know? This herb is a secret that we don't know.”
"Impossible. With our Zhao clan's status, the world has no secrets from us. It must be the Yao clan's deliberate deception.”
? The Zhao Family juniors all supported Zhao Xuankun's idea.
"In the beginning, I had the same thoughts as all of you. I felt that the Yao family was deliberately mystifying things.”
"However, I used my connections to contact many people. In the end, I was able to confirm that the Yao family's words were true.”
Zhao Wuji said.
"The Yao family has countless connections. Perhaps they were the ones who told you to contact the person who lied to you?”
Zhao Xuankun said.
"Their words may be false, but the evidence is right in front of us. We have to believe it.”
"The Yao family sent over a leaf of that medicine. According to the Yao family, this leaf is their sincerity to win the trust of my Zhao family.”
"As long as I put this leaf into my father's mouth, it will allow my father to regain his senses for three days. During these three days, my father's physical condition will be equivalent to when he was in his sixties or seventies.”
"But within three days, if my Zhao Family doesn't buy all of this medicine and allow father to extend his life, father will immediately die.”
"Oh right, the Yao family also offered the greatest sincerity, which is to let father take the medicine first. Then, after father has lived for at least a year, they will come back to collect the debt.”
"Tell me, what kind of medicine in the world can make an old man who is almost a hundred years old recover to the state of his body when he was in his sixties or seventies after taking it? And it was the kind that guaranteed to last forever? And he even promised that he would only collect the debt after extending his life for a year?”
" All of this shows that the Yao family's medicine is truly a life-prolonging divine medicine. There are indeed secrets in the world that we don't understand. At the very least, we don't know anything about the Yao family, a family that has been passed down for thousands of years.”
Zhao Wuji looked at everyone present and said in a deep voice.
"Big brother, where is that leaf?"
Zhao Xuankun heard Zhao Wuji's words, took a deep breath, looked at Zhao Wuji and asked.
"I have it."
Zhao Wuji took out an incomparably exquisite crystal transparent small box from his bosom, the box contained a pink leaf about the size of a finger.
This leaf was filled with moisture and luster, as if it was still alive. It did not turn yellow after being plucked.
…………
"Hmm? This was the leaf of the top grade spirit herb, the Longevity Flower?”
The instant Zhao Wuji took out the crystal box, outside the Zhao family's old mansion, a young man suddenly opened his eyes.
