The long-standing elders, strong in spirit despite their age, didn’t regard Nianyang at all, even looked down on her with disdain.

Nianyang wasn’t angry either; if their positions were swapped, she wouldn’t be convinced by a fledgling trying to sit in the leader’s seat.

But this was the expectation her beautiful master had of her.

Nianyang always remembered the beautiful master saying that phrase, letting her promote Traditional Chinese Medicine, perhaps everything had been planned since then by the beautiful master.

She opened her mouth calmly and steadily, "Elders, I know you don’t believe in my abilities, and I won’t try to explain. However, since this is the decision of the beautiful master, I think we must respect him, and I will strive to expand and strengthen the Traditional Chinese Medicine Family, not failing everyone’s efforts and expectations."

The third elder snorted, "Anyone can speak nice words. The profound and extensive nature of Chinese medicine, even hundreds of years of precipitation are not enough to cover it all. What do you know, you foul girl? Don’t be arrogant and presumptuous just because Elder Wen favors you. Now Elder Wen has been harmed by you, we will not let you invade the Traditional Chinese Medicine Family."

The second elder angrily shouted, "Enough, don’t disrespect Miss Chu. I don’t care what your opinions are, whether you accept or refuse, but Elder Wen has already changed the holder’s name of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Family to Miss Chu. Now the Traditional Chinese Medicine Family is hers, and moreover, all of Elder Wen’s secret recipes have been passed to Miss Chu. She is the only one qualified to take over the sect leader position."

What?

The elders’ faces changed.

"Elder Wen is simply muddle-headed!"

"Secret recipes are his lifelong learning; how can they be casually taught!"

"Elder Wen has really disappointed us!"

"If we had known he was like this, we shouldn’t have joined in!"

Nianyang could bear their doubts, but she couldn’t tolerate their disrespect toward Elder Wen. She spoke with displeasure, "Elders, I think you’ve forgotten, without Elder Wen, the Traditional Chinese Medicine Family couldn’t have flourished, and you wouldn’t have been able to remain eternal in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association. One should remember the source when drinking water, yet you now seem too adept at destroying bridges after crossing them?"

The elders here were prestigious Traditional Chinese Medicine masters externally, yet being admonished like this by Nianyang left their faces unsightly.

"You, little girl, really don’t respect people!"

"We are all your elders; how are you speaking?"

"Don’t think Elder Wen favors you, we are not blindly like him!"

"You’ve already killed Elder Wen, I advise you to be wise and immediately hand over the ownership of Traditional Chinese Medicine Family!"

"Yes, hand over the ownership of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Family!" 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Everyone became more energetic as they spoke. Despite being old, their bodies were robust due to years of traditional medicine and health care, and they spoke powerfully.

They spontaneously shouted in unison, attempting to pressure Nianyang through group intimidation.

An ordinary young girl facing such a scene would probably be frightened to tears.

However, Nianyang remained unmoved, showing no fluctuations.

The only one understanding in the whole scene, the second elder, who was always valued and befriended specially by Wen Qingmu, was absolutely furious,

"I say, every one of you, truly shameless, to be so aggressive towards a young girl. Is this the upbringing of your Traditional Chinese medicine house? This completely defiles the humble and tolerant national essence culture of our great Traditional Chinese Medicine!"
