As for other matters, presumably the boss will handle them; there's no need for them to worry.

As soon as Zhao Zhuo finished speaking, the ambushing men in black around them quickly surrounded them, each holding a sharp dagger, clearly intending to eliminate Tan Tian.

"Young man, when speaking to elders, watch your tone. With so many of you wielding weapons lurking around my home, I could easily call the police and have you all arrested. If you know what's good for you, leave immediately."

Tan Tian's demeanor became a bit more resolute.

To be honest, he didn't want to cause trouble. After all, it's been over a decade since he's made a move; he wished to maintain this peace.

"Haha, I say, uncle, you don't even look that old, so why are you acting senile? Don't you see how many of us there are? Call the police? Do you think we'll give you that chance?"

Zhao Zhuo said with an amused smile.

"I'll give you one more chance, leave immediately, or suffer the consequences."

Clearly, Tan Tian was very domineering, but in Zhao Zhuo's eyes, that was just like Chen Tianlong, merely putting on an act. No way would he believe that an ordinary uncle could do anything to him.

Furthermore, he still didn't believe that there was anyone in South Sea City who could defeat him, Zhao Zhuo. After all, he was already at Yellow Dao three-star strength and just a step away from breaking through to four-star.

However, just as Zhao Zhuo had spoken, he witnessed the uncle before him swiftly approaching with just a flicker, and before he could even react, he felt the uncle's hand clenched around his throat.

"Cough cough..."

Zhao Zhuo's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at the uncle.

This speed, he didn't even know how much faster it was than his own. Logically, if someone was attacking him, Zhao Zhuo's reflexes would allow him to respond.

Even when Chen Tianlong attacked him the other day, he easily evaded, yet this uncle gave him no chance to dodge at all.

"Giving you one last chance, take your people and leave; the farther, the better."

Since Tan Tian's identity was now exposed, he didn't want to see these people again as long as he didn't have to resort to violence.

"Alright, alright, I'm leaving. Let me go. I'll take my people and leave immediately."

Zhao Zhuo had no intention of leaving; he wanted to deceive Tan Tian, planning to order everyone to attack once he was released.

Although this uncle seemed to have some skill, Zhao Zhuo thought he was simply too careless earlier, which led to getting caught.

After thinking for a moment, Tan Tian let go, not because he trusted Zhao Zhuo, but because he simply wasn't concerned.

He wasn't a murderous demon; if someone asked to be let go, he naturally would. The opportunity was theirs, if they didn't take it, they couldn't blame him.

Sure enough, once released, Zhao Zhuo unexpectedly took a step back, drew a dagger from his waist, and with a wave of his hand, ten assassins brandishing military knives charged forward.

Tan Tian frowned and sighed deeply, realizing the timing was inevitable. If he didn't act, his whole family would perish.

Just as everyone charged at Tan Tian, time seemed to stop; Tan Tian moved, and it was as if he moved like lightning.

A few seconds later, they all crashed to the ground, alive or dead unknown, leaving only Zhao Zhuo with a terrified expression. Who was this person? How could they be so formidable?

Zhao Zhuo's mission was incomplete, so he mustered all his strength, wanting to test the opponent's true capabilities. After all, he found it hard to believe that an uncle from a neighborhood could defeat him; it was beyond belief.

Originally, Tan Tian hadn't intended to kill, but this kid was too brazen. Generously sparing his life, yet he still showed no gratitude. Tan Tian coldly smiled, a trace of killing intent flashing at the corner of his mouth.

"Boom..."

Their fists clashed, Zhao Zhuo's eyes widened as he felt his arm was disabled.

But it wasn't over; the moment their fists collided, the uncle's other palm slapped his chest with unparalleled speed.

"Pfft..."

Zhao Zhuo spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot; evidently, his meridians were all shattered, his eyes starting to glaze over.

Tan Tian was about to move closer, considering that if his identity was leaked, it might bring disaster upon Chen Tianlong.

After thinking it over, Tan Tian extended his right hand, intending to use his inner strength to erase this person's memory. As a master of martial arts and medicine, he was extremely familiar with the brain's meridians, and making this person lose memory was incredibly simple.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Suddenly, from an unknown direction, three darts flew out. Tan Tian reacted quickly, dodging to the side. At that moment, a figure in black appeared before him, wearing a ghost mask.

"Who are you?"

Tan Tian's brow furrowed; the situation was unusual. The person had been hiding nearby, clearly following the group over and was well aware of their family's matters.

"Each serving their master; it's inconvenient to reveal. I'm taking this person and leaving, goodbye."

The ghost-faced man grabbed Zhao Zhuo from the ground and disappeared with a swift move.

Tan Tian pursued for a bit but saw no trace of him. After taking a deep breath, he headed back. That person was rescued, but the ten men in black lying on the ground needed their memories cleared.

Of course, Tan Tian wasn't foolish enough to kill all ten of them; if he did, how could he continue to stay here?

Once everything was resolved, Tan Tian returned to the pharmacy with some frustration, and by then, Chen Tianlong had also noticed something suspicious. Indeed, as he had guessed, Tan Tian, as a master, was truly hidden in plain sight!

"Master, what's going on? Is it taken care of?"

Chen Tianlong asked somewhat puzzledly.

"Hmm, nothing. Chen Tianlong, stop causing trouble in the future and study well."

Besides saying this, Tan Tian really didn't know what else to say. After all, they were already caught up in the situation, and with Zhao Zhuo rescued, peaceful days were unlikely ahead.

"Got it, Master. I just wanted to research this new medicine, nothing else," said Chen Tianlong indifferently.

"Sigh, alright, just be more careful in the future."

Tan Tian also had no other options. They were already embroiled in this matter; even if they stopped researching, they'd still be misunderstood. So they might as well continue refining their research without hesitation.

"Chen Tianlong, here's the plan: since someone knows about our research, let's simply replace the first ten herbs with alternatives of the same efficacy. This way, even if they come for us, twenty different herbs will leave them without any leverage against us!"

This was the best solution Tan Tian could think of.

"I agree; I was thinking the same thing."

Chen Tianlong nodded. He had this idea early on. Both of them were well-versed in pharmacology, and finding herbs with the same effects wasn't too challenging.

So, the two of them continued their research on the super Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill. They spent the entire morning in this manner. After Wu Mengting finished washing up, she arrived at the pharmacy and was taken aback seeing the two busy at work.
