Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) -
Chapter 2238 Their First Encounter with Mountain Breeze Sect's Sect Master
After the leading man in the white robe finished speaking, several people behind him approached. "Mr. Larson, Miss Lola, Dr. Paintaker, Mr. Schmidt, please follow me," said the staff member.
The staff member led Matthew and the others away from the area.
On the other hand, the other contestants split into two groups and went to different locations.
As Matthew and the others walked further, the surroundings became increasingly quiet.
A while later, they arrived at a heavily guarded gate.
The staff member approached and exchanged a few words with the guards.
Once the guards nodded, the staff member returned.
"Please come in, everyone!"
Then, the staff member hurriedly left the area.
Being left by themselves, the four exchanged a look in confusion.
From the competition venue to this place, everyone had been in a state of confusion.
The only information they had was that it seemed like the CAUMP's board of seniors wanted to reward them.
But based on his observations along the way, Matthew knew that things weren't as simple as they seemed.
They left the contestants from Emsgate behind to prevent any of Cathay's core medical secrets from being leaked.
Despite the fact that anyone could learn medical skills, physicians were still subject to the limitations imposed by national borders. What made Matthew suspicious the most was the emotions of the people he had encountered along the way.
There was an underlying heaviness beneath their urgency.
This was not the state of mind that should be present for a commendation.
However, since he couldn't figure it out, Matthew decided to go with the flow.
After shaking his head, Matthew gestured for everyone to enter the gate together.
Once the four entered the room, Roland immediately became excited.
Among the three elderly men in the room, one of them was Roland's grandfather, Kenneth.
Including Kenneth, the three were the main judge and the two deputy judges of the Holy Doctor Competition. "Grandpa-"
Roland happily ran forward, wanting to show off his achievement of advancing to the finals.
But before he could continue, his grandfather, who stood across him, furrowed his brows and chided him coldly. "Shut up!"
"I apologize for my lack of discipline, which has led to this disobedient grandson of mine's usual laziness."
Immediately, Roland, who was originally excited, felt dejected and shrank his neck.
What's gotten into Grandpa?
He dotes on me and always calls me 'precious Roland.'
Just as Roland was puzzled, a burst of hearty laughter came from behind.
"Hahaha, Phantom, you don't have to pretend to be strict in front of us.
"Knowing you for so many years, of course, we're aware of your true character."
When Kenneth saw the speaker, his expression became even more serious.
"Yahir, you old codger. How come you're still not dead?
"It seems that good people often don't live long, while troublemakers linger for years.
"Anyway, why did you suddenly reappear?
"And how is it that your sect, Mountain Breeze Sect, was destroyed?"
Those words were far from a joke.
The speaker was an elder who had suddenly appeared behind Matthew. He was the sect master of Mountain Breeze Sect, Yahir Pruitt. Upon hearing Kenneth's malicious words, Yahir didn't show any anger. Instead, he smiled and stroked his graying short beard.
"Oh, Phantom, you old codger. You're still so petty after all these years.
"And your words are still as venomous as ever.
"Come on, I know I took away your sweetheart back then. But do you really have to hold a grudge all these years?
"Besides, it was you who asked me for help back then."
Just as Yahir finished speaking, Kenneth's face grew even darker.
Kenneth was shaky due to the anger, and the few strands of beard on his face were trembling.
"I asked you to help me deliver love letters and assist me in pursuing Imogen.
"I didn't ask you to marry her! Have some dignity, you old codger!"
Kenneth was about to continue his angry outburst.
On the side, Rhett interrupted him by coughing lightly.
"Ahem. The young ones are still here, you know.
"Both of you are halfway into the grave.
"Don't you feel embarrassed to quarrel in front of the young ones?"
Hearing this, the angry Kenneth gradually calmed down.
With a cold snort, he looked to the side.
