Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar

”Father, it’s all the fault of that Divine Doctor, because of him I can’t meet with Brother En! If only we could get rid of...”

Yi Haisang continued speaking, while the Lin Family Head was already pondering the details of how to successfully... eliminate Divine Doctor Ding from the Nanyuan Family!

This matter requires careful planning to find a feasible solution!

...

Nanyuan Family.

Such a pungent smell!

As soon as Fang Yu entered the room, he was almost overwhelmed by the smell, and immediately turned back and retreated to the door.

”Ding Hui?”

Fang Yu called out into the room, and Ding Hui’s voice emerged from the dense smoke filling the space.

”Here!”

Accompanied by the clinking sounds of bottles and jars colliding, Ding Hui’s figure soon emerged from the smoke and stood before Fang Yu.

She proudly shook the half-filled bottle of greenish liquid in her hand and boasted with a smile.

”Guess what’s inside?”

”Antidote?” Fang Yu crossed his arms in front of his chest and tilted his head slightly.

”Wrong! To be precise, it’s half an antidote!”

Ding Hui said smugly.

Whenever she encountered research-related matters, she always appeared more excited than usual.

”I’ve always said that it’s the Nanyuan doctors who are incompetent, having good things but not knowing how to use them, such a waste. As soon as I got my hands on it, I knew what to do. They can’t even reverse engineer a simple diagram; creating something from scratch is difficult, but not being able to copy a ready-made answer, that’s truly useless!”

Sharp! What a sharp critique!

Fang Yu glanced at the two old men who hurriedly ran out from the smoke-filled room after Ding Hui.

”Lord Ding, don’t go, don’t go; the fire is still burning, and the poisonous water inside is almost dried up. What should we do next?”

”Lord Ding, slow down, we can’t keep up... ha ah... ha ah... it’s exhausting for us old men...”

Though the two old men were utterly exhausted, their tempers were quite good. They wiped their sweat and began circling Ding Hui, asking questions like ’what was added after the mulberry wood was ground?’ and ’why did the fire suddenly blaze up in the middle?’

The barrage of questions left Fang Yu somewhat bewildered.

These two old men were over thrice Ding Hui’s age, yet in front of her, they seemed like novice apprentices of the Medical Dao, needing to ask about everything, as if without Ding Hui, they wouldn’t know what to do next.

Even though Ding Hui wore an annoyed expression, even Fang Yu felt a bit of a headache from the barrage of questions from the two old men.

”Go back! Go back inside the room! Put out the fire, I’ll rebrew another one later! How can you not see my husband is here! No sense at all!”

Ding Hui’s impatient yet slightly cold tone instantly made the two little old men fall silent, nodding repeatedly while they retreated into the smoke-filled room.

That pungent smell was unbearable for Fang Yu, and he wondered how Ding Hui and the two old men managed to endure it.

It seemed Fang Yu’s gesture of covering his nose caught Ding Hui’s attention, as she chuckled twice, pulled out a small bottle from her sleeve, popped the wooden cork, and handed it to Fang Yu.

”Take a sniff.”

Fang Yu hesitated for a moment, then decisively leaned forward and took a whiff.

Wow!

What was that smell? It was like the stench of rotting sewage, the kind that would make one nauseous to the point of vomiting!

”What is this!?”

Fang Yu quickly stepped back to avoid being overwhelmed by Ding Hui’s concoction.

But as he retreated, he suddenly noticed a faint fragrance in the air.

Startled, Fang Yu took a few steps forward and discovered to his surprise that the source of the fragrance was the smoke-filled room in front of him!

The room that had been filled with an unbearable stench now suddenly smelled pleasant and inviting!

Inhaling a full breath made one feel intoxicated, as if standing in a sea of flowers.

”Stench is fragrance, fragrance is stench.” Ding Hui chuckled, putting away the small bottle in her hand, and said, ”Does my husband want to come in and take a look?”

Fang Yu thought for a moment and nodded.

Ding Hui visibly brightened with happiness, leading Fang Yu into the room.

”Here are the materials I’ve just processed. While the Nanyuan family’s research approach was flawed, most of the medicinal materials they chose were correct. After all, knowing part of the Water Poison’s production process, identifying some of the poison’s materials, and selecting targeted medicinal materials is one of the basic skills of a doctor...”

Ding Hui rambled on enthusiastically, while the two old men in the room acted like obedient apprentices, following behind Fang Yu and Ding Hui.

Hearing Ding Hui mention this aspect, their expressions slightly changed, but the change was fleeting.

After all, the Water of Tranquility from the Nanyuan family, also the initial version of the Detoxification Potion, was developed by the two of them through their research on the Lin Family’s Water Poison notes.

Being criticized directly by Ding Hui, their expressions naturally showed slight nuances.

However, they were quite receptive to criticism, and beyond these criticisms, they were more concerned with when Ding Hui would resume working on the antidote research, so they could learn something from it.

The adept come first, and Ding Hui’s medical skill earned their respect.

Fang Yu also noticed this, and as for the principles Ding Hui was discussing, such as medicinal material analysis, extracting which materials to mix, combining or counter-refining medicinal properties, they were largely incomprehensible to Fang Yu.

Ding Hui’s explanations grew increasingly enthusiastic, and the two old men listened intently, as it seemed she had never explained the principles in detail before.
