Chapter 196: An Unexpected Guest (3)
In the hard-boiled martial world I inhabit, there exist four kings who have reached the pinnacle of their respective fields.
First is Dang Qing, the Poison and Hidden Weapon King, the Emperor of Poisons and Hidden Weapons.
He is also the Nine Dragons Fortress Lord and the Supreme Patriarch of the Green Dragon Sect.
Second is Jin Shanqing, the King of Merchants, the head of Shanxi Merchants, a legendary merchant who rose from slavery to become the Emperor of the Upper Realm.
Third is Qing Chusan, the Qing Shui Medicine King, the father of the Qing Shui Sect, whose medical skills are said to reach the heavens.
That’s the old man right before my eyes.
Ah, and the fourth is Master Beigong.
They say he won over a thousand battles, earning him the title Heaven and Earth Battle King or something like that.
‘I’m pretty sure he lost a few times.’
Probably some public opinion manipulation by the forces of darkness.
Anyway, I never expected to face such a renowned figure as the Medicine King of Qing Shui.
And that too, just as I was about to condemn the old man Yookhak.
“Ahem, what brings the Medicine King here…?”
“Why else? I came to see that clumsy daughter of mine.”
He answered with a cheerful laugh.
‘……But seriously, why is this guy so handsome?’
According to Yukhak, Lord Cheongga was fifty-six.
At an age when one in three ordinary farmers would have died of old age, he boasted skin as smooth as if preserved in a jar, not to mention sculpted, godlike features.
