The number of doctors ranked above Medical Master had been strictly limited. If someone fell to the bottom of the list, they risked being cast out of the ranks. And they were only able to return to their former glory when they passed their assessment again.

In contrast, while the ranks above Divine Doctor were also limited, the cap had never been reached. As a result, no one had ever faced elimination, unlike the situation described earlier.

“Good!” Chen Jian nodded quickly, a sinister grin spreading across his face. “Uncle, you have to teach that bunch of country bumpkins from Sumeru Clinic a lesson. Show them what a real doctor is!”

As the sun dipped below the horizon and the sky grew darker, the Sumeru Clinic lit up with the glow of its crystal lamps.

In the entire lobby, many people were crowded here, looking worriedly in the direction of the operating room.

Nearly half an hour had passed, but the room remained completely silent. The eerie silence made everyone feel uneasy.

Don’t they say women usually scream their heads off during childbirth? So why is it completely silent in there?

Could it be that both the mother and child didn’t make it?

The thought of the cesarean method Xi Yue had mentioned sent a chill down Anling Yang’s spine.

If Lin Peiyun were a warrior or cultivator, it might be different. But she had no spiritual power or cultivation at all. How could she possibly survive having her abdomen cut open?

Butler Lin of the Bai Family was also restless, pacing around anxiously one moment and then sitting down to gulp water repeatedly the next.

It’s one thing for the young madam to be quiet, but why isn’t there any news from the young master who went in with her? Will this child even be born safely?

The Bai Family’s bloodline was unique; most direct descendants possessed dual or more heavenly spiritual roots and had an exceptional understanding of swordsmanship and sword intent beyond the ordinary. Bai Yingfan could even rival the sword cultivators of the Jun Family.

However, because their bloodline was so rare and unique, the chances of having children were meager. If not for the long lifespans of cultivators, the Bai Family would have dwindled in numbers long ago.

So, when the young madam became pregnant, the entire Bai Family was overjoyed. But if this child couldn’t be born, or worse, if they lost the young madam in the process, Butler Lin could hardly imagine the consequences.

Just as the agitation was building, a group of people suddenly walked in from outside. Leading them was Chen Hongsen, accompanied by Chen Jian, with Dr. Hu from the Chen Clinic following closely behind.

Butler Lin knew Chen Jian and Dr. Hu. He quickly cupped his hands in greeting and asked, “Dr. Hu, Dr. Chen, what brings you here?”

Anling Yang and the others looked even more grim, knowing all too well that nothing good ever came from a visit by the Chen Family.

Chen Jian gave a polite nod to Butler Lin and introduced the man beside him, Chen Hongsen.

The moment Butler Lin heard that Chen Hongsen was a manager from the outer sect of Heavenly Medicine Valley, his demeanor softened noticeably. In the Qingyun Realm, Heavenly Medicine Valley held such influence that no one dared to show its people any disrespect.

Chen Hongsen immediately put on a serious expression and asked, “I heard that Mr. Bai agreed to let a young man deliver Mrs. Bai’s child. Is this true?”

Butler Lin was startled, then nodded.

“Nonsense!” Chen Hongsen said angrily, his face darkening. “Both Divine Doctor Wen from Heavenly Medicine Valley and Dr. Hu from our Chen Clinic have diagnosed Mrs. Bai’s unborn child as a stillborn. How could you trust the words of some arrogant young man? Aren’t you putting Mrs. Bai’s life at risk?”

Hu Qingming stepped forward and declared, “I swear on my entire medical career that the chances of Mrs. Bai’s child being born alive are less than one in ten thousand. If you force the delivery instead of first eliminating the fetus in the womb, Mrs. Bai herself will be in grave danger!”
