Chapter 264 Martial Arts Tournament for Marriage Proposal
In Ye Ling's room, Wang Ziyu sat facing him.
"How did you know I was here?"@@@@
Ye Ling poured two cups of tea and began to ask.
Wang Ziyu showed no intention of concealing the truth, "Master, ever since my father passed away, you took over the Medicine God Sect as a disciple of the Medicine God, yet you have never visited the Medicine God Sect!"
"Over these years, I have been managing the vast Medicine God Sect. With our sect's strength, finding out your whereabouts is hardly a challenge..."
By the end of her sentence, the resentful look on Wang Ziyu's face turned into embarrassment.
Clearly, probing into Ye Ling's whereabouts was not something that could be openly discussed.
However, Ye Ling didn't pursue the matter, but instead asked with a smile, "All right, the Medicine God Sect is what the Medicine God left behind, it's for you."
"Even when I assumed the role of Sect Leader, it was just one of the conditions I agreed to with the Medicine God back then, you shouldn't take it to heart."
Wang Ziyu looked at Ye Ling with a hint of resentment, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
After a moment, Wang Ziyu looked deeply at Ye Ling and said, "Master, is the Medicine God Sect really so insignificant in your eyes?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Ling shook his head with a smile and replied, "The Medicine God Sect has several Divine Doctors, if we talk about medical skills, undoubtedly, the Medicine God Sect is the foremost in the Dragon Nation. How could such power not catch my eye?"
"Then why has Master never visited the Medicine God Sect in so many years?"
Wang Ziyu pressed on with her question.
A faint smile appeared on Ye Ling's face, "Didn't I just tell you?"
"The Medicine God Sect is yours, not mine."
"If you wish for the position of Sect Leader, I can relinquish it to you anytime."
As he spoke, Ye Ling's hand revealed a token that he somehow already held.
Though but the size of a palm, one side of the token was carved with a sprig of grass, while the other bore a vigorously inscribed character: Medicine!
The pitch-black token shimmered with a captivating glow under the room's light, and coupled with the faint scent of herbs it exuded, it inadvertently made one's mind waver slightly.
"Don't even mention it! Before my father left, he held my hand and told me that if the Medicine God Sect is to endure, it must be with you as the Sect Leader," Wang Ziyu said with a wry mouth.
Ye Ling's brow furrowed slightly, surprise flickering in his eyes.
In terms of medical skills, Wang Ziyu, as the daughter of the Medicine God and guided by several Divine Doctors of the Medicine God Sect and personalised instruction from Ye Ling, her medical skills were even comparable to Ye Ling's.
"Sect Leader, what are you laughing at?"
Wang Ziyu gave Ye Ling a look and asked irritably.
Ye Ling shook his head with a smile and said, "Nothing much, your mother is just looking out for you, isn't she?"

"You're not getting any younger; it's time to find someone to marry."
Wang Ziyu pouted, "Those people in the imperial capital, with one set of faces in front and another behind, not worth a thing, what right do they have to be Wang Ziyu's man?"
"Besides, those imperial capital folks had a hand in that incident three years ago, I still need to avenge you! How could I possibly take a fancy to them?"
At her words, Ye Ling's expression changed slightly.
He then said seriously, "I will settle the matters of the past with them by myself."
"Now that you represent the Medicine God Sect, you can't afford to make enemies with these elite families so easily."
"These elite families have been entrenching themselves in the imperial capital for over a hundred years. Even I am not sure how strong they really are, so do not act recklessly."
Seeing Ye Ling looking so grave, Wang Ziyu nodded obediently.
"Don't worry, Sect Leader! Do I look like someone without a brain?"
"Of course, I know that the Medicine God Sect is no match for those elite imperial families, that's why I've been biding my time. Otherwise, I would have taken people to their doorsteps three years ago!"
Wang Ziyu said with a fierce expression.
Ye Ling shook his head with a smile, "Alright, go back and rest! We'll talk about everything else tomorrow."
"Sure, since you're going to the imperial capital anyway, we'll have plenty of time to talk later."
Wang Ziyu nodded, then got up and left Ye Ling's room.
As the door closed behind her, Ye Ling sat alone on the couch, his thoughts swirling in his eyes.
The imperial capital was like a deep pond whose bottom one could not fathom, and no one knew exactly what lay hidden within these waters.
Whether there's a leviathan lurking or not is also yet to be seen!
"With my strength as it is now, I fear no one!"
Ye Ling murmured softly to himself.
