"Young Master Wang, Medicine King Manor lies ahead."
Ten li outside Great Ye City, a carriage stopped before the gates of an estate. The richly dressed man accompanying Wang Chen smiled and said, "The five-hundred-year-old wild ginseng you want is currently only available here."
"Mm."
Wang Chen nodded and stepped down from the carriage.
Today, he wore a white scholar's robe. His spirit and bearing were deeply restrained, and he looked every bit the elegant young master amid a troubled age.
