"Disciple Sun Tianyang pays his respects to Young Master Mu!"

Sun Tianyang's words immediately shocked everyone.

Disciple?

Young Master Mu?

The Divine Doctor Sun Tianyang was actually calling himself a disciple? And addressing Lin Mu as Young Master Mu? Who exactly was this Lin Mu?

Lu Jia was the most shocked of all.

Isn't Lin Mu Qin Luoli's husband? How did he become the teacher of Huaxia's Divine Doctor, Sun Tianyang? Their ages are so different; the idea is incredible. Could Master Sun just be joking? But looking at Sun Tianyang's respectful attitude toward Lin Mu, that's impossible.

The most shocking part was yet to come.

With his hands behind his back, Lin Mu spoke indifferently, "I've told you before, you cannot become my disciple."

What?

Cannot become your disciple?

He's a renowned medical expert both domestically and abroad, a titan of the medical world! Never mind becoming your disciple—he's more than qualified to be your teacher! Countless people beg Sun Tianyang to take them as students each year. How many medical schools have paid a steep price just for a single lecture, only to be rejected? Yet, Lin Mu just said, in front of everyone, that Sun Tianyang couldn't be his disciple? This...

The most terrifying part was that not only did Sun Tianyang not get angry, but he also said with a smile, "As the saying goes, 'In learning, there is no seniority; the one who has mastered the subject is the teacher.' Young Master Mu's medical skills are divine, and I, Tianyang, admire them immensely. Although I dare not call myself your disciple, in my heart, I already consider you my honored mentor."

As soon as Sun Tianyang finished speaking, everyone gasped in shock.

Divine medical skills? An honored mentor? Were our ears playing tricks on us, or had Sun Tianyang gone mad?

"Suit yourself," Lin Mu said, appearing completely indifferent. His casual tone and reaction, showing no regard for Sun Tianyang whatsoever, sent a jolt of shock through Zheng Jiyie and the others.

"Young Master Mu, are you also here for Zheng Mingye?" Sun Tianyang changed the subject, his voice tinged with excitement and anticipation.

"Mm," Lin Mu grunted, glancing at Zheng Junyi. "Someone nearly kowtowed his head open. If I hadn't shown up, wouldn't that make me a murderer?"

Zheng Junyi smiled awkwardly, looking extremely unnatural. But when he remembered the immense respect Divine Doctor Sun Tianyang showed Lin Mu, his heart instantly filled with excitement.

He knew it! Lin Mu was definitely a reclusive master with profound skills!

"That's truly wonderful!" Sun Tianyang exclaimed, appearing even more excited than Zheng Junyi.

Ever since he witnessed Lin Mu's heaven-defying medical skills bring someone back from the brink of death more than a year ago, Sun Tianyang had been unable to forget it.

For the past year, he had been integrating and organizing the medical techniques he learned from Lin Mu, preparing to write a new medical Holy Codex in Lin Mu's name! He believed that as soon as this work was published, it would astound the entire medical world!

"Hmph, big talk. Who knows if any of it is true," Zheng Jiyie suddenly sneered.

Zheng Junyi immediately shot back, "Zheng Jiyie, it sounds like you don't want Grandfather to recover."

Zheng Junyi snorted. "When the time comes, I'll tell Grandfather and the board of directors exactly what you said. Let's see if they still support you then!"

Zheng Jiyie's expression flickered. Zheng Junyi had caught him.

If the board of directors found out he was disrespecting the old master just to seize control of the Zheng Family, it could jeopardize his plans.

At this thought, Zheng Jiyie quickly forced a laugh. "Junyi, how can you think that of your uncle? I'm just worried we're getting our hopes up for nothing."

Zheng Junyi couldn't be bothered with Zheng Jiyie.

He had already decided. Once Grandfather recovered, he would tell him everything. Although Grandfather had entrusted the business operations to Zheng Jiyie, he himself was the true helmsman of the Zheng Family!

"Rest assured, with Young Master Mu taking action, your hopes will not be in vain." Hearing Zheng Jiyie's slighting tone toward Lin Mu, Sun Tianyang was instantly displeased. However, his relationship with Zheng Jiyie was merely cordial, so he couldn't be bothered to engage with such a person.

Lin Mu, however, didn't even spare Zheng Jiyie a glance. "Let's go see the patient," he said.

"Mr. Lin, Master Sun, please follow me." Zheng Junyi eagerly led the way, his face beaming with joy.

As he watched Lin Mu's retreating figure, a cold glint flashed in Zheng Jiyie's eyes, and he shot another meaningful glance toward the Guan Family.

"Wait." Just as Zheng Junyi was about to step into the room, Lin Mu stopped him.

"Mr. Lin, what is it?" Zheng Junyi asked, puzzled. Even Sun Tianyang looked at Lin Mu with curiosity.

He was certain Young Master Mu had discovered something.

"Did you have a stove and the air conditioning on in the room earlier?" Lin Mu asked, glancing at Zheng Junyi.

Zheng Junyi nodded. "Yes, but later Master Sun told us to remove them."

Lin Mu nodded. "It's a good thing you removed them when you did. Otherwise, even I couldn't have saved him."

"What?" Zheng Junyi exclaimed in shock. "Mr. Lin, why?"

Master Sun had mentioned it before, but he hadn't made it sound nearly this serious.

"Yin and Yang are meant to blend. When they are forced to clash instead, one will naturally be harmed." Lin Mu shook his head. "Besides, as I've said, your grandfather's condition is caused by resentment clinging to him, resulting in an overwhelming Yin Qi. By suddenly adding fire, weren't you just trying to send him to his next life sooner?"

Zheng Junyi's face turned pale, and large beads of sweat dripped from his forehead.

Then, with a sudden jolt, Zheng Junyi furtively glanced at Zheng Jiyie.

He remembered that when Grandfather had his episode yesterday, Zheng Jiyie had been the first to order someone to prepare a stove and turn on the air conditioner. Could it be...?

His pupils constricted. Zheng Junyi struggled to control his expression, pretending not to have realized anything.

"Alright, all of you stay here. I'll go in alone."

With that, Lin Mu walked straight into the room, closing the door behind him.

"This..." Zheng Junyi started to follow, but he stopped when the door closed, abandoning the thought.

"Why did he close the door? What if something happens?" Zheng Jiyie fretted. Then he turned to Sun Tianyang. "Master Sun, should we go in and check?"

"I advise you not to!" Sun Tianyang said coldly. "These are Young Master Mu's rules. None of you are to disturb him. If anything happens because you do, Young Master Mu will take no responsibility!"

After speaking, Sun Tianyang planted himself in front of the door, standing guard like a door god.

Although he also desperately wanted to go in and watch, Young Master Mu hadn't given permission, so he would focus on doing his part. Deep down, Sun Tianyang already regarded Lin Mu as his master and was determined to fulfill his duties as a disciple.

Witnessing this, Zheng Jiyie's pupils constricted slightly.

This Master Sun truly seems to hold Lin Mu in high esteem. At this thought, a flicker of unease went through him.

"Hmph, I'd like to see for myself just how capable this kid really is." Zheng Jiyie still didn't believe Lin Mu possessed any real skill, his tone laced with disrespect and his face a mask of doubt.

Sun Tianyang replied coolly, "You'll find out soon enough."
