Chapter 225: Chapter 226: Is a Medical Bill of Ten Billion Reasonable?
"Heh, kid, don’t tell me you don’t have a ticket and are trying to sneak in?" the ticket inspector said with a face full of scorn.
"I paid for one, but I got scammed!" Ye Wudao explained, and seeing the Divine Doctor had already entered the golden gate, he quickly shouted, "Damn, don’t run!"
"This fool, without a clan or a noble’s Token, dares to try entering the VIP door, he’s just asking for death!" the ticket inspector mocked, and many in the queue also looked at Ye Wudao with sneers, waiting to see a joke unfold.
"Halt, present your Token!" demanded the guard of the VIP gate in a deep voice.
"I don’t have a Token!"
"No Token, intruders will be killed without mercy!" the guard bellowed angrily.
"Ye Wudao, what should we do now?" Su Yueli asked, her face filled with concern.
"Damn it, I didn’t expect the Divine Doctor to be that kind of person!" Xia Shiqi exclaimed furiously, her pretty face flushed with anger.
Just then, Ye Wudao took out the North King’s Token and said indifferently, "Will this thing do?"
The VIP gate’s guard took a look and immediately said with a face full of scorn, "Kid, even if you’re going to fake it, don’t go overboard, okay? With a fake North King’s Token, who the hell do you think you’re fooling?"
"It’s real!" Ye Wudao protested.
"Bullshit! Take your fake Token and get lost!" the guard said, tossing the North King’s Token onto the ground.
"You’re courting death!" A flash of killing intent appeared in Ye Wudao’s eyes.
Just then, an irritated voice came, "What’s going on?"
A richly-dressed, rather corpulent old man approached.
"Grand Steward!" All the auction house strongmen addressed him respectfully. One of them said mockingly, "Reporting to the Grand Steward, just now some kid tried to sneak in with a fake North King’s Token!"
What?
North King’s Token?
The Grand Steward looked surprised and then said with a smile, "Young man, could you let me have a look at your Token?"
Ye Wudao, clearly annoyed, handed the North King’s Token to the Grand Steward.
As the golden-robed elder took it with one hand, he shook as if struck by lightning, trembling uncontrollably; "Good heavens, this, this is a genuine North King’s Token!"
The next moment, the Grand Steward knelt down, his face full of respect, "Tian Long Auction House’s Grand Steward Jin Yu—kneels before the North King!"
The entire place fell silent!
"My God, what just happened?"
"The famous head of the auction house is kneeling to a young man!"
"This is insane!"
All the people in the queue gaped incredulously.
"Grand Steward, you?" The VIP gate’s guards stood frozen, dumbstruck.
"If you don’t want to die, kneel!" the Grand Steward bellowed.
All the auction house strongmen knelt at once.
Ye Wudao frowned, displeased, "Can I go in?"
"Yes, yes, if you can’t, who can?!" the Grand Steward said excitedly, "The Token you hold is the Dragon Country’s highest-level North King’s Token, a royal decree! It supersedes any clan, noble house, please forgive us for not recognizing the arrival of the North King’s esteemed presence!"
"I’m not the North King," Ye Wudao stated flatly.
What?
Not the North King!
The Grand Steward was taken aback and then, holding up the North King’s Token with both hands, he smiled and said, "Whether you are the North King or not, this Token is genuine! The North King has done a favor for our auction house in the past. Please keep the North King’s Token well!"
Ye Wudao accepted it casually.
"Esteemed guest, please follow me!" the Grand Steward made an inviting gesture.
All those queuing were left dumbfounded!
"Damn, what kind of deity is this?"
"Feels even more powerful than the previous Ouyang family!"
"Indeed, there is always someone better out there, and skies beyond skies!"
The Grand Steward, with trembling awe, led Ye Wudao and his party into the auction, and just as they turned a corner, they ran into an old man in a Taoist robe.
"Divine Doctor Senior!" The Grand Steward was struck by lightning, scared breathless.
Oh crap!
I’ve seen a ghost!
What day is it today?
First, there’s the mysterious young man holding the Token of the Northern King!
And then the Divine Doctor, one of the legendary four supreme healers of Dragon Country, makes an appearance!
"Damn, Divine Doctor, you dare to deceive me?" Ye Wudao cursed, grabbing the Divine Doctor’s robe.
"Young man, don’t be so impetuous! I haven’t deceived you, you did get in, didn’t you?" said the Divine Doctor with a smile.
"That’s because I have the Token of the Northern King!" Ye Wudao said angrily.
"Hehe, I know!" the Divine Doctor chuckled mischievously.
"You owe me three million! That’s my hard-earned money, or I’ll pluck out every hair on your body!" Ye Wudao cursed.
"Hehe, don’t worry, I’ll make sure you get your money’s worth for that three million!" The Divine Doctor, still grabbed by the collar by Ye Wudao, wasn’t angry but glanced at the Grand Steward and said, "Now scram!"
"Yes, yes, I’ll take my leave right away!" The Grand Steward immediately retreated.
"Little Ye, let go of me!" the Divine Doctor said with a smile.
"Pay me back my money!" Ye Wudao said with a cold face.
"Do you want to make a fortune, a highly profitable business deal?" the Divine Doctor said mysteriously.
"No, pay me back!" Ye Wudao looked displeased.
"Hehe, kid, that three million is just a trifle. In a moment, I’ll help you make a big fortune!" the Divine Doctor said proudly.
"Yeah, right, who do you think you’re fooling?" Ye Wudao looked disdainful.
"Exactly, we can’t trust a word you say, Divine Doctor Senior!" Xia Shiqi pouted.
Su Yueli remained silent but her pretty face was ice-cold, filled with skepticism.
"I’m not lying to you, I swear to heaven!" the Divine Doctor, patting his chest, said to Ye Wudao.
"Oh, then tell me, how do we make this big fortune?" Ye Wudao asked, unconvinced.
"I previously treated someone, and I went deep into the mountains to gather herbs for him, overcoming countless difficulties. It’s reasonable for him to reimburse me, right?" the Divine Doctor explained.
"Reasonable!"
"I asked him for my medical fee, that’s reasonable, right?" the Divine Doctor asked.
"Reasonable!" Ye Wudao nodded.
As the Divine Doctor spoke, his face suddenly filled with rage and said, "But that bastard, not only did he refuse to pay for the herbs, he didn’t give me the medical fee either!"
"What, that’s just too awful?" Xia Shiqi said angrily.
"Despicable, how can there be such scum!" Su Yueli’s pretty face turned ashen.
Ye Wudao felt something off and asked doubtfully, "How much did you charge for your medical fee?"
"Not much, just ten billion!" the Divine Doctor slowly raised one finger.
My goodness!
The three of them from the Ye party looked at each other and were completely dumbfounded.
"Oh my, ten billion in medical fees, that’s just outrageous!" Xia Shiqi exclaimed in shock.
"Unreasonable!" Su Yueli shook her head.
"Tell me, Divine Doctor, were you treating someone or extorting them?" Ye Wudao said with a speechless face.
"Please do not question my professional ethics!" the Divine Doctor said, and then suddenly a hearty laugh came from outside.
"Hush, he’s here!" the Divine Doctor suddenly put his finger to his lips.
