"Really now, what are they up to?"

"Could they be discussing how to deal with the representatives from the Beihai National?"

"Impossible! How could they discuss that? The representatives from the Northern Confederation couldn't possibly compete on behalf of the Flame Dragon Kingdom, let alone teach biotreatment methods to the Flame Dragon Kingdom representatives!"

"Why do I feel like they seem to be waiting for someone?"

"Waiting for someone? That can't be right. Who could possibly be worth their while to wait for at the entrance together?"

People began discussing animatedly.

In front of the conference room, Cangben Tailang and his two associates took their seats in the second row. Hearing the crowd's discussion, they too stood and came to the window.

"Cangben-san, are they planning to join forces to deal with us?" Goumao Jingshang showed a worried look.

"Don't worry, in front of so many country representatives, they wouldn't dare to pull any stunts!"

Cangben Tailang laughed coldly and said, "This time, we must take the position of the Chairman of the World Medical Association from the Flame Dragon Kingdom. Once Goumao-sama assumes the chairmanship, we will be able to implement our plans even more effectively!"

"Cangben-san, choose your words wisely!" Goumao Sheng Ichiro said sternly from the side.

"Yes!" Cangben Tailang's expression changed slightly, and he quickly nodded respectfully, seeming to fear this Goumao Sheng Ichiro.

"They're moving! They're moving now!"

"Darn it! They really were waiting for someone?"

"Who's that arriving? Who's so important that these bigwigs of the medical community would wait together at the entrance?"

"Hey? Why is it two youngsters? What's going on?!"

"Holy smokes, who is that young man?"

Suddenly, the conference room erupted into chaos as everyone turned to look outside and exclaimed in shock.

Hearing this, Cangben Tailang and his two associates looked down, and their expressions drastically changed.

"It's him?!"

"Jiang Chen!"

A cold murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the three men from Cangben Tailang's group.

"It's actually him! Mr. Goumao, things have gotten complicated!" Cangben Tailang said with a frown.

Goumao Sheng Ichiro looked out the window with a gloomy expression and said in a grave tone, "Prepare for a last stand! If he dares to ruin our plans, then we'll turn this exchange meeting into a tragedy for the medical community. I'd like to see how the Flame Dragon Kingdom explains this to all the countries of the world!"

"Yes!" Cangben Tailang nodded gravely in response, while Goumao Jingshang trembled fiercely inside, a crazed look appearing in his eyes.

At the entrance of the Medical Association building.

Woowoo... Squeak!

A Rolls Royce Phantom parked in the open-air parking lot. Jiang Chen and Yan Hu stepped out of the car, Jiang Chen in the lead with a fabric bag in his hand and Yan Hu following behind with a medicine box on his back.

"Mr. Jiang!"

"Mr. Jiang!"

A chorus of shouts rose, and Ye Yang and the others went up to greet them, while Zhang Chengkun stood in place, watching Jiang Chen and his companion coldly.

Jiang Chen looked up, glanced at the crowd, and walked forward with a smile, "Elder Ye, Elder Wu, Pi Te."

"Mr. Jiang, let me introduce you. This is President Wu Qiubo of our Flame Dragon Kingdom Medical Association, and this is Director Chen Guozhong of the Jincheng Defense Area General Hospital." Ye Yang introduced the people on his side.

Jiang Chen chuckled and nodded his head.

"Mr. Jiang, I've heard about your situation from Elder Ye and Ming Zhong. The success of this medical exchange meeting rests on you now!" Wu Qiubo spoke with a smile on his face.

"I'll do my best," Jiang Chen smiled and nodded.

"Mr. Jiang, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Mo Si, the director of the Merlamos Medical Research Institute, and this gentleman is the deputy director, Mr. Wu'ersi Xi'er," Pi Te introduced the two men from their side.

"Wu'ersi Xi'er," Wu'ersi stated his full name.

Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback and asked in surprise, "That Xi'er?"

"Yes, that Xi'er!" Wu'ersi chuckled and nodded his head, his gaze towards Jiang Chen now filled with respect.

"Understood!" Jiang Chen smiled gently.

"Shall we go inside then?" Wu Qiubo turned his head to glance at Zhang Chengkun standing at the entrance. Seeing he was not coming over, he signaled with a light laugh.

"Sure!" Jiang Chen nodded in agreement.

Together, everyone headed toward the entrance of the Medical Association building.

"Mr. Zhang, let's go up," Wu Qiubo chuckled as he greeted Zhang Chengkun when they passed the entrance.

Zhang Chengkun, however, ignored Wu Qiubo and instead took a step to block Jiang Chen.

He looked Jiang Chen over with an extremely haughty gaze and then said coldly, "So you're Jiang Chen?"

"Yes, I am Jiang Chen," Jiang Chen nodded lightly.

"This gentleman is Mr. Zhang Chengkun, the current Medicine King of the Zhang Family from the Medicine King Family of the Northern Confederation," Wu Qiubo introduced.

"The Medicine King Family from the Northern Confederation?" Jiang Chen's expression changed slightly, a flash of peculiar light crossing his eyes. He hadn't expected to encounter someone from the Medicine King Family of the Northern Confederation so soon, especially the current Medicine King.

"Yes, the Medicine King Family from the Northern Confederation. You are the chairman of Jiuzhou Group, which means you're also the Family Head of the Jiang Family of Jincheng, and the chairman of the Longteng Group, right?" Zhang Chengkun spoke arrogantly.

"That's correct!" Jiang Chen replied softly.

"It was I who refused your Longteng Group's attempt to acquire the medical companies in the north. However, this matter can still be discussed, but the premise of that discussion is that you hand over that old man, the Medicine Saint, to us!" Zhang Chengkun spoke harshly.

"Medicine Elder?" Jiang Chen was surprised and wrinkled his brow slightly, "What do you want with the Medicine Elder?"

"That's not for you to know. You just need to hand him over to us!" Zhang Chengkun's voice was firm.

Jiang Chen's expression changed, and he responded indifferently, "I'm sorry, I, Jiang Chen, do not engage in betraying my friends!"

"You don't have a choice, unless you no longer wish to acquire the medical companies in the north!"

Zhang Chengkun looked smugly at Jiang Chen, a sneer forming on his face, "Don't think that just because you know people from the Flame Dragon Group, you can do whatever you want. Here in the north, it's not up to the Flame Dragon Group!"

"I have no desire to do as I please, but thus far, no one can stop what I intend to do. Anyone who tries to stop me is my enemy!" Jiang Chen spoke coldly and turned to walk towards the building entrance.

"Are you challenging the Zhang Family to a war?" Zhang Chengkun shouted in anger.

"Mr. Zhang, we all came here for the medical exchange meeting. Let's deal with whatever it is after the meeting!" Wu Qiubo rushed forward to mediate as he sensed the escalating tension.

Ye Yang and others frowned and glanced at Wu Qiubo, then stepped forward to follow Jiang Chen into the building.

"A war?" Jiang Chen stopped in his tracks, turned, and looked coldly at Zhang Chengkun, "With just your Zhang Family? Are you even worthy to speak the words 'war' to me?"

"You... you dare to look down on our Medicine King Family?" Zhang Chengkun bellowed angrily, then turned to Wu Qiubo, "Chairman Wu, for this medical exchange meeting hosted by the Flame Dragon, there won't be a place for both him and me. Make your choice!"

"But... we are all here for the good of the Flame Dragon Medical Community, why must it come to this!" Wu Qiubo's face changed as he softly tried to persuade.

"I'm telling you; you can only keep one of us!" Zhang Chengkun shouted again.

Wu Qiubo was immediately put in a difficult position.
