Urban Super Medical Sage-Chapter 1947 - 2043: As Expected (Second Update)

The elder’s name was Zheng Chi.

Zheng Chi was an old member of the Gao Family Commerce Association. Long ago, during the era of the former master, he was the personal guard of the master, and over time, became a devotee of the Gao Family Commerce Association.

Besides these three leading figures, the remaining seven or eight young individuals stood behind, yet they weren’t lacking either—most were of the Divine Realm level eight or nine. Yet, they were merely guards, guards of figures like Gao Pu.

One must understand, in the entire Tailing Empire, how many existences are at the level of Divine Realm eight or nine? Take Tailing Zhenyi, as an example, he was a top-level expert in the Tailing Empire, naturally a top-level expert, otherwise, he wouldn’t have the qualification to vie for the throne, not to mention nearly succeeding. Even so, Tailing Zhenyi was only at the Divine Realm level eight or nine, similar in strength to the seven or eight guards brought by Gao Pu.

It’s frightening to think about.

The top-tier experts of the entire Tailing Empire merely mirror the strength level of regular guards from the Gao Family Commerce Association in the Capital of State Yuan.

How many levels below is the Tailing Empire compared to the Gao Family Commerce Association?

And how many levels below is Yuancheng compared to the Capital of State Yuan?

Therefore, at this moment, it’s not surprising that Tailing Zhenyi and others are kneeling there respectfully.

Kneeling to others might be humiliating; kneeling to Gao Pu and other members of the Gao Family is only right.

"These people are quite sensible." Xu Yu Jun glanced at Tailing Zhenyi and others kneeling in front and laughed lightly, teasing.

"Definitely very sensible." Gao Pu nodded, his mood brightened. These little ants were quite sensible and comforting: "Yujun, today I’ll accompany you to stroll around the Tailing Empire."

Gao Pu genuinely liked Xu Yu Jun, and the reason was simple – Xu Yu Jun was beautiful, with great temperament, and among the young women in the Gao Family Commerce Association, she was a standout among standouts, hard not to catch his eye.

He had pursued Xu Yu Jun openly and secretly, but unfortunately, Xu Yu Jun had always remained elusive, neither agreeing nor outright rejecting him. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

It made him itch.

In fact, if it were another woman, having already developed feelings, he would have used coercion or inducement long ago, but unfortunately, the other party was Xu Yu Jun, and he dared not.

Because everyone in the Gao Family Commerce Association knows that Xu Yu Jun likes the Young Master Gao Yi.

Just because of this, Gao Pu dared not.

Despite this, it always seemed that his cousin Gao Yi didn’t pay much attention to Xu Yu Jun, and it was merely Xu Yu Jun’s unreciprocated affection, but what if? What if Xu Yu Jun had a small place in Gao Yi’s heart, even the slightest bit, and if Gao Pu made a move on Xu Yu Jun, it might not end well.

Within the Gao Family Commerce Association, Gao Pu is considered a minor prince, a local tyrant, yet he fears Gao Yi.

In terms of identity and status, Gao Yi is the Young Master, higher than Gao Pu, who is merely the nephew of the master, while Gao Yi is the master’s only son.

In terms of talent and strength, Gao Yi is only a little older than Gao Pu, yet he is already a standout among the State Sons, at the Peak of the Fifth Level of the Realm of Returning to Truth, a level Gao Pu finds hard to even hope to reach, and possibly, Gao Yi might even become the Son of the Emperor one day.

In any case, Gao Pu has fear and respect towards Gao Yi in his heart, being cautious in matters concerning Gao Yi.

Of course, although he doesn’t dare to forcefully act on Xu Yu Jun, if he pursues her openly, he’s not afraid. After all, his cousin Gao Yi wouldn’t be domineering enough to prevent others from pursuing a woman he doesn’t care for.

For this reason, this time, coming to the Tailing Empire, originally, Xu Yu Jun was supposed to lead the team, and someone of Gao Pu’s identity shouldn’t be part of such a small matter, but Gao Pu still came.

"No, what’s there to see in such a small city-level power?" Xu Yu Jun shook her head, refusing, without hiding her disdain for the Tailing Empire, as it’s just an ant, a very weak ant, is there any need to show face?

As for rejecting Gao Pu.

It was inevitable.

Xu Yu Jun isn’t a fool; on the contrary, she’s very smart.

Her ambitions are very large indeed.

She dreams of becoming the Young Master’s Wife.

Once achieved, it’s a rise to the heavens.

Unfortunately, it’s a faint hope; Young Master Gao Yi doesn’t seem to fancy her.

For this reason, Xu Yu Jun has always rejected Gao Pu openly and secretly but never turned harsh towards Gao Pu, treating Gao Pu as a backup. If she thoroughly loses hope in becoming the Young Master’s Wife, she will settle for Gao Pu, after all, Gao Pu is quite decent, isn’t he?

"I wonder if my cousin has obtained the Yanlei Ancient Fruit?" Gao Pu glanced at Xu Yu Jun, not angered by her repeated refusal, having anticipated it, Gao Pu changed the topic to one that interested Xu Yu Jun. Who could interest Xu Yu Jun? Naturally Gao Yi.

Indeed.

As Gao Pu mentioned Gao Yi, Xu Yu Jun’s eyes immediately lit up: "The Young Master surely can, in the Capital of State Yuan, even if the Young Master isn’t number one, he’s among the top three, and the Young Master’s mind is more meticulous. He has the highest probability of obtaining the Yanlei Ancient Fruit."

Speaking of Gao Yi, Xu Yu Jun couldn’t hide her admiration and respect.

"Yes! With my cousin in the field, who can contend?" Gao Pu flattered, and it was his sincere thought too! He truly admired and respected Gao Yi!

At this moment.

Gao Pu and Xu Yu Jun were engaging enthusiastically in conversation about Gao Yi, having a pleasant chat, while ahead, the kneeling group of Tailing Zhenyi and others had sore knees but were entirely ignored. Yet, they dared not show even a hint of anger.

They continued to kneel there, respectfully and exceedingly reverently.

"Gao Yi? The Young Master?" Though Tailing Zhenyi knelt there, he paid close attention to Gao Pu and Xu Yu Jun’s conversation, thinking inwardly with growing reverence.

He had studied in the Capital of State Yuan before, knew a few people from there, and had vaguely heard about Gao Yi.

He was an unimaginable super genius.

He was the top-tier unparalleled talent within the entire State Yuan domain.

He was an existence capable of obliterating Tailing Zhenyi’s soul with a mere breath.

Tailing Zhenyi even harbored a wild dream, wishing to see the Gao Family’s Young Master Gao Yi once in his lifetime, making death worthwhile.

A long time passed.

Gao Pu and Xu Yu Jun’s conversation ended.

"How’s the resource excavation at the back mountain going?" Gao Pu finally remembered the kneeling Tailing Zhenyi and others, raised his head, glanced at Tailing Zhenyi, and casually asked.

"Reporting to Young Master Pu, still lack progress." Tailing Zhenyi quickly replied. The location of the natural phenomenon at the back mountain had been under excavation for two days, trying to unearth it, yet it was too deep. Nearly ten thousand people had been digging day and night, with no progress thus far.

"Too slow, call more people; ten thousand aren’t enough; mobilize a million. My time is limited, I don’t have the leisure to stay in this godforsaken Tailing Empire." Gao Pu huffed.
