Feng Tiangang coldly stated, ” There’s a problem with the procedures at the

Ancient Medical Clinic, so let’s put a temporary halt to the opening.”

His words left Gu Bofan and Feng Zhengzhi bewildered. Initially, they wanted to prevent the Divine Physician Sect from opening, but now it seemed like they were the ones unable to proceed.

“What do you mean by this, Mr. Feng?” Gu Bofan asked.

Feng Tiangang responded with a stern tone, “There are multiple issues with the Ancient Medical Clinic’s operations, and it doesn’t comply with the opening regulations. The previous procedures are invalidated.”

“Mr. Feng, haven’t you forgotten that if it weren’t for me, your family’s patriarch might not have survived!” Gu Bofan blurted out, but as soon as he said it, he regretted his hasty words.

Once spoken, there was no turning back. He had likely blocked this valuable connection with the Feng family.

“Back when we asked Elder Gu for help to save our patriarch, didn’t we provide a substantial medical fee? It seems that Elder Gu’s appetite is insatiable,” Feng Tiangang countered. “If you claim that your clinic is profit-driven, then our family paid the medical and treatment fees. We should be even, with no debts between us. What’s wrong with that?”

Gu Bofan found himself at a loss for words. He had made it clear that he was primarily interested in profits, so how could he now demand favors from Feng Tiangang?

Everything had fallen apart.

Nan Yan didn’t react much to Gu Bofan and Feng Zhengzhi’s predicament. However, Feng Tiangang’s response did take her by surprise.

She had initially thought that he couldn’t differentiate right from wrong and was being manipulated, but now it seemed that he had some principles after all.

“Master, Second Master, let’s go,” she suggested.

Their business here was finished, and there was no point in staying.

“Yes, let’s go back,” Hua Shifang agreed without looking back, ignoring the uncomfortable glances from Gu Bofan and Feng Zhengzhi.

Seeing their hesitant expressions, Sun Chan sneered, “With elders like you in the Heaven and Earth Alliance, its downfall is imminent.

After their heated argument during their last visit to the sect and their subsequent decision to leave the Heaven and Earth Alliance, Hua Shifang had considered purging the organization to restore it to its proper path.

Unfortunately, the corruption within the Heaven and Earth Alliance wasn’t limited to just a few individuals; it had penetrated the entire sect, from the inside out. The whole sect had become ensnared by money and power, and it seemed beyond redemption.

Hence, both Hua Shifang and Sun Chan had immediately announced their departure from the Heaven and Earth Alliance, declaring that they were no longer affiliated with it.

The elders of the Heaven and Earth Alliance didn’t pay much attention to Hua Shifang’s departure. After all, he had a strong personality and had disappeared without a word for over a decade, without even sending a single message. Even if he returned now, there was no guarantee he wouldn’t leave again at any moment.

However, they were unwilling to let Sun Chan go. Sun Chan controlled the Hundred Herb Garden, and the herbs within it were invaluable – their worth couldn’t be measured in mere money.

They were reluctant to let Sun Chan take the Hundred Herb Garden away from the Heaven and Earth Alliance. Most of the sect’s expenses were currently covered by the resources from the Divine Physician Sect and the Hundred Herb Garden. With the Divine Physician Sect being taken back by Hua Shifang, Gu Bofan and his group had no choice but to reopen the “Ancient Medical Clinic.”

While the name “Divine Physician Sect” wasn’t essential, the herbs were indispensable. If the Hundred Herb Garden left the Heaven and Earth Alliance, obtaining herbs in the future would become much more challenging.

However, despite the elders’ attempts to stop him, with Hua Shifang backing him, Sun Chan left forcefully. After all, the guardian spirit beast of the Hundred Herb Garden, Bai Ze, recognized only him, and no one else could enter the small herb garden.

Gu Bofan and Feng Zhengzhi watched them depart with one thought dominating their minds: their future life was going to be very challenging.

“Please wait a moment,” Feng Tiangang called out after leaving the Ancient Medical Clinic’s entrance.

He quickly walked up to Hua Shifang and the others.

“I’m truly sorry for this situation. It was my failure not to investigate thoroughly. I apologize to all of you.”

After seeing the videos, Feng Tiangang had gained a new understanding of Hua Shifang and felt genuine respect for him. Having such a physician was a great fortune for China.

He had nearly prevented Hua Shifang from reopening the Divine Physician Sect due to the deception and manipulation of Gu Bofan and his group, which would have been a grave injustice.

Nan Yan’s gaze shifted to the familiar car parked on the side of the road. She exchanged a few words with Hua Shifang and Sun Chan before heading straight for the vehicle..
