184: Chapter 184 Infiltrating the City Lord's Mansion

After the two officials finished reading the decree from the City Lord, the others left the pharmacy one after another. Since the place had been requisitioned, there was no point in them staying.

After leaving the pharmacy, Wen Qing went straight home and told Xiao Yuchen and the other person about the Wang Family being wiped out. Xiao Yuchen was not very surprised; all of this had already been under his control.

"Oh, by the way, Xiao Chen, when I went to the pharmacy, I happened to encounter two officials arriving to convey the City Lord's verbal decree. They said the princess has fallen ill and the City Lord's Mansion is looking for a renowned doctor to treat her. You have Medicinal Pill in your possession; I wonder if you possess Medical Skills?"

In Qingshan City, anyone capable of producing a Medicinal Pill was definitely a person of strength, which was why Wen Qing asked this.

"Oh? The City Lord's Mansion? What kind of power is that?" Xiao Yuchen asked casually.

Hearing Xiao Yuchen's question, Wen Qing opened his mouth wide in shock. He hadn't expected that Xiao Yuchen would not even know about the City Lord's Mansion.

"You don't know about the City Lord's Mansion?"

"Perhaps the terminology is different; we don't call it that where I'm from." Xiao Yuchen felt a bit awkward.

"Oh, I see. That's true. The Cultivation World is so vast, there must be many different names for things. In Qingshan City, the three strongest powers are The Three Great Families, and above those three families is the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord is the master of Qingshan City, and his strength has already reached the Soul Transformation Early Stage. He is the strongest person in Qingshan City. It is precisely because of the City Lord's Mansion guarding this place that people here can live so peacefully."

Hearing Wen Qing's explanation, Xiao Yuchen nodded. So, it was equivalent to the local government official. Soul Transformation Early Stage strength was just barely passable.

"Oh, where we are from, we call it the local government. Although I do possess some Medical Skills, is it necessary for me to treat that princess?"

Xiao Yuchen was telling the truth; he didn't even think much of the City Lord's Mansion. With his current strength, only the Four Great Sects could make him take notice.

"How could it not be necessary? Although you have met the requirements to enter the Four Great Sects, being a Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment in your twenties really doesn't offer any advantage. If the Qingyun Sword Sect recruits few Disciples this time, you are very likely to be eliminated. But if you can cure the princess's illness and obtain a recommendation from the City Lord's Mansion, you can be admitted to the Qingyun Sword Sect as an exception. Furthermore, it is said that the princess is a Core Disciple of the Qingyun Sword Sect, and her own strength has already reached the Golden Core Stage Great Perfection. With her help in recommending you, it will be even less of a problem."

Hearing Wen Qing's words, Xiao Yuchen fell into deep thought. To quickly improve his strength and understand the Xuantian Continent, he indeed needed to temporarily rely on the Four Great Sects.

With his current strength, there would naturally be no problem joining a Sect, but that would inevitably expose some of his strength, and he didn't want that.

If he cured the princess's illness, perhaps he could really enter the Qingyun Sword Sect while keeping a low profile, which wouldn't attract anyone's attention.

"What you say makes sense; it is worth a try. Ruyu, do you want to enter the Qingyun Sword Sect?"

Xiao Yuchen had another reason for wanting to treat the princess; perhaps he could get Wen Ruyu introduced as well, which would be a way to repay the father and daughter of the Wen family for saving his life.

"Me? Although I am indeed under twenty, I have only just reached the Foundation Establishment Stage; I don't have the qualifications." Wen Ruyu replied somewhat embarrassedly.

"You don't need to worry about your cultivation; there is still a month left, and reaching the Foundation Establishment Late Stage is not difficult. Don't you still have a spirit gathering pill in your possession? Even if you fail after taking the spirit gathering pill, I have a way to help you make a Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage. So, just tell me, do you want to go to the Qingyun Sword Sect or not?"

Hearing Xiao Yuchen's words, Wen Ruyu's breathing quickened. If it were possible, who wouldn't want to enter the Qingyun Sword Sect? She had always thought that she would never have a chance in this lifetime.

Seeing that Ruyu seemed hesitant, Wen Qing became anxious and said in a tone of exasperation: "Ruyu, what is there to hesitate about? Do you want to stay cooped up in this small place for the rest of your life, accompanying me, this old man, to gather herbs every day? Only by entering the Qingyun Sword Sect can you get ahead, obtain what you want, and pursue the things you want to pursue. Do you understand?"

While saying this, Wen Qing subconsciously looked at Xiao Yuchen. He knew that his daughter liked Xiao Yuchen, and this was a very good opportunity.

Seemingly understanding her father's meaning, Wen Ruyu's cheeks flushed slightly. She wasn't hesitant because she didn't want to go, but because she was shocked. Previously, she had been somewhat lazy in her Cultivate, and she had never thought she could enter the Four Great Sects.

"I am willing, I am willing to join the Qingyun Sword Sect." Wen Ruyu nodded and answered firmly.

"Alright, being willing is enough. Leave this matter to me; I guarantee I will get you into the Qingyun Sword Sect. I need to go to the City Lord's Mansion first; you two wait for me at home."

After giving a simple instruction, Xiao Yuchen left. Once out of their sight, Xiao Yuchen directly stepped into the Void Realm and headed towards the City Lord's Mansion. Although Qingshan City was not small, it was not difficult to find the location of the City Lord's Mansion.

Half an hour later, Xiao Yuchen arrived at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion. Just as he was preparing to enter, he was stopped by two guards at the door.

"Halt! What business do you have here?" one of the guards asked.

"I am a doctor, here to treat the princess." Xiao Yuchen did not feel any Life Qi because he was stopped; after all, it would be strange if the City Lord's Mansion could be entered and exited freely.

"Treating an illness? The City Lord's Mansion only invites renowned doctors from Qingshan City, and they are all decades old. How old are you? You know how to treat illnesses?" The guard clearly did not believe Xiao Yuchen's words.

"Whether one's Medical Skills are good or not has little to do with age; it mainly depends on talent. You two, please let me in; this is a small token of my appreciation."

As he said this, Xiao Yuchen stepped forward and slipped twenty Low-Grade Spirit Stone into each guard's hand.

This was also a helpless move by Xiao Yuchen. Forcing his way in was obviously inappropriate, as that would inevitably attract a lot of attention.

Sneaking in would have been possible, but he was here to treat someone, not to act like a thief, so there was no need for that. Additionally, he was worried that there might be some experts inside the City Lord's Mansion; after all, that princess was a person from the Four Great Sects.

When the two guards saw the Spirit Stone in their hands, their attitudes improved instantly.

"You are quite sensible. Go in, but make sure to follow the servant and don't wander around, you hear?" the guard warned.

"Of course, I understand."

Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Yuchen entered the City Lord's Mansion, a servant came up to greet him. Although he was also curious about why the guards had let such a young person in, it had nothing to do with him; he was only responsible for showing the way.

The City Lord's Mansion was very large. The two walked for over ten minutes before arriving at a grand hall. At this moment, there were dozens of people in the hall, all of whom were doctors who had come to treat the princess.

The servant brought Xiao Yuchen to the entrance of the grand hall and then left on his own. Xiao Yuchen walked into the grand hall by himself.

Hearing someone enter, everyone looked toward the entrance. When they saw that it was such a young man who had entered, they were all obviously stunned, and one old man couldn't help but burst into laughter.
