Chapter 134
‘It’s a domain.’
It was precisely the domain that Jung Myeong possessed.
From the very beginning when he first created the medical clinic, he had made it his domain.
When it was a small domain, its only function was the minor ability to inform him of intruders and such.
Even that had limitations where it didn’t work well against masters.
Even detecting killing intent was only possible after Jung Myeong himself noticed it, rather than detecting it in advance.
‘Not anymore though.’
Now it had transcended those limitations.
It was capable of providing assistance with training.
In other words, it could increase the speed of growth.
He had applied this here as well.
One at the medical clinic, and one here.
‘Fortunately, I was lucky.’
It was possible because the domain’s level had greatly expanded, allowing him to apply it all the way here.
Clearly, he had used one of the tricks he had thought of.
‘What’s important is that I’ve completely made the continuously extending domain my own.’
In any case, what mattered was that the domain was gradually growing and being recognized as his.
From far away in Hangzhou city center all the way to this manor.
If he continued to expand its size, the entire area would completely fall within his domain.
And when that happened, it would become a powerful force.
Especially with the newly recruited martial artists here.
‘Come to think of it, I might have been secretly thinking about forming a faction myself.’
It was just that the sudden influx of murim people made it rapidly visible.
Jung Myeong realized anew that forming a faction was inevitable, whether he liked it or not.
Perhaps misunderstanding him.
“It’s amazing that you brought them here and trained them like that, but…”
“Thinking that you’ve been planning and proceeding with this from a very long time ago. Hmm…”
They looked at Jung Myeong with expressions of renewed amazement.
‘His scheming is quite impressive too.’
‘He might have known in advance that we would come to the Physician.’
‘Hehe… Ju Tae-gong. You might not be the one fishing, but the one being fished.’
‘As expected, he truly has Divine Power!’
What was an amazing coincidence became surprise in an instant.
“Now I understand what you meant when you said we already have a place to stay.”
“Amazing.”
With that, the misunderstanding deepened even more.
Someone who knows the future and prepares in advance.
Their expressions showed they thought such a lord was worth serving.
‘This seems like some kind of misunderstanding has occurred?’
Jung Myeong noticed this belatedly.
‘It is a misunderstanding. But since morale is rising… let’s leave it for now.’
He simply nodded silently to their request for guidance.
* * *
‘Busy indeed.’
Perhaps because he had started so many things.
Even after returning, there were many things to do.
After settling the Martial Artists in the new manor.
On the way back, he stopped by Baekyang Escort Agency. He didn’t see Heon-ang Sword or Namgung Yeon.
‘Where did those two go? It seems like they went off to cause some trouble.’
Instead, he saw the Guild Master.
The Escort Agency Leader complained that he might soon have to hand over the escort agency.
His words sounded regretful, but his face was filled with contentment.
He must be happy that the severed connection with the Namgung Family was being restored at this opportunity.
If that weren’t the case, he wouldn’t have mentioned giving up his Guild Master position soon.
‘Namgung Yeon really did accomplish something proper with me.’
Jung Myeong thought he had truly done something worthwhile.
Then he engaged in a tug-of-war with the Guild Master until the very end. It was a tug-of-war over the regular production of spirit medicines and medicinal herbs.
‘That’s enough.’
When the Guild Master said he couldn’t handle this anymore, Jung Myeong was able to leave the Escort Agency with satisfaction.
After this, he busily stopped by herb shops and checked on the herb gatherers.
He also inspected the two branch offices that belonged to his medical clinic.
When the physicians tried to stop their treatments and come out, he struggled to stop them and helped with the treatments together.
Just by focusing on the emergency patients who needed urgent care, the physicians at the medical clinic showed signs of relief.
He also confirmed that new physicians had been added here.
‘Since this place has also become a domain, if I develop it centered around my medical clinic, it will grow even larger. I placed good people here and they’re growing on their own.’
The operating costs of the medical clinic would increase significantly though.
But considering conquering the Hangzhou Medical World, that much wasn’t even a cost.
Thanks to this perhaps.
New movements emerged.
‘They said the Uiseon Sect’s movements are unusual.’
Should it be called action and reaction.
They said rumors were coming in that the Uiseon Sect was gradually doing something in Henan where the Martial Alliance was located.
From what he could see, this time they might move through Murim rather than the government.
Because of this, Jung Myeong postponed one task.
‘In that case, I should postpone meeting the Provincial Commander for later.’
He postponed meeting the Provincial Commander to the very end.
The Provincial Commander was busy anyway. From what he heard, he was planning to go on a subjugation campaign with soldiers he had trained using the spirit medicines Jung Myeong had given him.
Despite his age, he was someone who moved quite energetically.
‘After the subjugation is over, he might go to another province.’
A promotion to another province.
Perhaps he had called him to introduce his successor.
Since he held quite a favorable impression of Jung Myeong.
‘Wow. Is it because I planted many seeds in Hangzhou? There’s a lot to take care of.’
The government, medical clinics, and even martial artists.
There was more to do than he had thought.
For a brief outing, there was surprisingly much to take care of.
‘Still, it seems like I’ve managed to handle most of it?’
While his personal affairs weren’t completely settled, it was about time he felt that everything else had been properly arranged.
With so many things to do, Jung Myeong had overlooked something.
“I felt like I was completely neglected.”
* * *
The Elixir Room, which could be called the center of his Medical Clinic.
Ju In-hye’s expression there was sulky.
‘Oh my goodness…’
Well, it wasn’t incomprehensible.
Hadn’t he brought her here saying he would treat her?
While she needed long-term treatment, he had gone all the way to Anhui for Yeo Eun-so’s matter.
‘The Self-Blood Technique wasn’t completely cured.’
When he first saw her, he discovered the illness called Self-Blood Technique.
He had partially treated it so her condition wouldn’t worsen, but the fact that he had left his patient behind didn’t disappear.
Jung Myeong had only one thing to say.
“I’m sorry. For the time being, I will focus entirely on Young Lady’s treatment.”
“I didn’t expect you to apologize so readily.”
“It’s natural for a physician to take care of patients, so shouldn’t I apologize?”
“If that’s the case… it’s fine.”
She quickly accepted his apology.
‘I thought she would make a big fuss…’
Unlike her cold beauty, she had a surprisingly gentle personality.
“So it seems you’ve been doing well. The Self-Blood Technique hasn’t gotten worse.”
“How do you know that? Ah… did you sense it with Divine Power?”
“Something like that.”
“That’s right. Strangely, I feel comfortable whenever I come to this Elixir Room.”
“It seems our temperaments match.”
Indeed, she seemed to have good compatibility with this place that created Quanzhen Secret Arts along with formations.
The divine power she possessed seemed to fit perfectly with this place.
‘Especially since there’s the power of the domain here too.’
Even without Jung Myeong’s treatment.
Like a fish in water, it was perfectly understandable that she had gained vitality.
Indeed, she seemed to have spent quite a long time here.
“By the way, it seems you’ve already mastered all the manufacturing methods I taught you?”
“Of course. I’ve become quite skilled at it, you know? Would you like to see?”
“That sounds good.”
She led him to the storage area inside the Elixir Room where the finished medicines were kept.
“Can you see?”
Entering inside, she straightened her shoulders and proudly showed him the interior.
Seeing it, he couldn’t help but be amazed.
“Wow…”
* * *
One corner of the Elixir Room. Spirit medicines were piled up.
‘This is truly amazing.’
It would be strange not to be amazed.
Starting with Clear Intestine Decoction, there were plenty of Jade Face Ointment and Wound Healing Ointment.
Here and there, True Origin Pills could also be seen.
She had every right to be proud.
‘I taught her the Spiritual Medicine Manufacturing Method and… I knew she had divine power. But does this speed make sense?’
It was a speed that even surprised Jung Myeong.
What mattered more than quantity was quality.
Since medicines could have serious side effects if made incorrectly, he examined them with this in mind.
The verification was easy.
[You obtained True Origin Pill.]
[You obtained Clear Intestine Decoction.]
.
.
There was no need for Analysis, as just holding them in his hands was enough.
If they had been incomplete, it would have told him they weren’t properly made.
As he was examining them, she suddenly asked.
“How are they?”
“They’re excellent.”
“Hehe… I put quite a lot of effort into them.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. This was the first time I could properly do my part here. So I was excited.”
“Ah…”
She spoke while fidgeting with her fingers as if embarrassed. Her face was also flushed. She was definitely embarrassed.
Jung Myeong understood her feelings.
‘It must have been difficult to live a proper life with the Self-Blood Technique.’
It would have been a life where she couldn’t do what she wanted to do.
But this time, she finally had something to do for the first time.
Moreover, it was a good match.
Creating the Spiritual Pills of True Progress was something only she, who possessed Divine Power, could do.
Something impossible without Jung Myeong.
Since she could accomplish this herself, her motivation must have overflowed.
He could understand everything – her excitement, her joy, even how easily she had accepted his apology.
“You’ve worked very hard on this.”
“Hehe…”
“I only have one thing to give you, so let’s start with that right away.”
“What do you mean by one thing?”
“Treatment, of course. Come, let’s begin immediately.”
“Here?”
“Yes.”
He decided to immediately give her compensation for the work she had shown.
‘This kind of thing should be done right away.’
