Chapter 494: The Largest Pharmacy
The group of people who had been causing a commotion in the cave a moment ago were now completely silent, looking at Chen Yu with a look of reverence.
In the culture of their tribe, anyone who could revive a key figure among them could be worshipped as a god.
Some of them immediately knelt on the ground and started kowtowing.
Chen Yu didn't want to waste too much time here. His recent healing of Marco had already spread throughout the Milore Family, and by now, various forces should have started to take action.
Especially that Demons, who had been wanting to overthrow Marco and take the position of the head of the Milore Family, could not allow Marco to be healed.
It was time to consider how to make a move.
"From now on, everyone must listen to me! Gather your belongings, and follow me to the Milore Family's territory. I have secured a piece of land for you there," he said.
His words excited those present, to varying degrees.
Some even agreed on the spot.
Ever since their territory had been seized, they had been wandering everywhere, and their people were often slain.
Now, only a little more than two hundred of them remained, cramped in such a narrow cave. If things continued this way, the few that were left would probably die here.
Many among them had thought about seeking refuge with the Milore Family, but to the Milores, they had absolutely no value.
Now, with someone willing to lead them to a better life, they could not wish for more.
As for the ancestral enmity with the Milore Family, it had long been forgotten to the winds.
In such a harsh environment of freezing snow and earth, survival was all that mattered, and they were willing to do anything to live.
Besides, of the chief's lineage, only a little girl remained, and she was a half-dead invalid—what future could she offer them?
Chen Yu was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected these people to agree so easily.
If it weren't for the chaotic magnetic field here that prevented the use of his system, he really would have liked to see what these people were truly thinking.
First floor of the Milore Family's underground castle.
When Dolan saw the natives following behind Chen Yu, he was immediately astounded.
In his memory, all the natives should have been dead. The sudden appearance of more than two hundred additional people was truly surprising.
"Mr. Chen, what is going on? Where did you find these people?" he asked.
Chen Yu didn't bother explaining; he just asked Dolan to quickly arrange a place for them and to have them change into modern clothes.
After setting up these people, he went to a secluded spot with Dolan.
"Master Dolan, there should be no grudge between these people and you. You might as well put them to good use," Chen Yu suggested.
Dolan looked at the natives who had changed their clothes from a distance.
The physical fitness of these people was many times stronger than that of an average person. Just equip them with modern weapons, and they would immediately become a formidable force.
"Mr. Chen, are you saying that you're giving these people to me?" he asked.
Chen Yu nodded: "Of course, why else would I bring them here?"
Dolan became excited. Although he was the heir of the Milore Family with considerable power, the number of people he could actually command was very limited. These two hundred plus people were like timely assistance.
"This is fantastic. With their help, it won't take long to suppress those rebellious fellows," he said, excited.

Chen Yu frowned slightly: "The Milore Family already has rebels?"
Dolan sighed helplessly, "It's always been there, but with these people around, they don't dare to cause trouble openly!"
Chen Yu patted Dolan on the shoulder, "I need to go to the pharmacy on the third floor to get some herbs. Take care of that young girl for me, please."
After giving a few more instructions, Chen Yu went straight to the nearby elevator.
The scale of the underground palace was unimaginably large, especially the third floor, which was practically an independent kingdom.
Just as he stepped out, Chen Yu was stunned by the opulence before him.
He hadn't expected an underground world to be so prosperous, with just this one level surpassing the size of Dongming Canyon.
While he was still in shock, Demons slowly approached from not too far away.
"Mr. Chen, so you've come to my third floor after all! Come, please, inside!"
Chen Yu had no desire to engage and continued straight towards a pharmacy.
He had already used the system to check that the third floor had the largest pharmacy in the entire underground palace.
The underground palace seemed to have undergone some special modifications; its magnetic field was completely different from the outside world.
In the outside world, Chen Yu's system would be interfered with and unusable, but here it was like being at home, all details appearing in his mind without any omissions.
Demons was burning with anger. He had been extremely patient, but Chen Yu was disregarding him completely.
"Mr. Chen, aren't you going a bit too far? You might be the Sect Leader of the Xuanqing Sect, but this is the Milore Family's territory, and I won't tolerate your reckless behavior here."
As if he hadn't heard anything, Chen Yu proceeded to the entrance of the pharmacy and was about to enter when Demons rushed over.
"Stop right there. I won't let you leave today until we've made things clear!"
Chen Yu, somewhat impatient, grabbed Demons by the shoulder with a backhand, yanked him hard, and threw him flying out, where he landed heavily in the middle of the road.
The surrounding people were all stunned; none had expected someone to dare to lay hands on Demons.
However, many had looks of schadenfreude on their faces. They were not strangers to suffering at the hands of Demons, and now, finally, someone had given them a taste of their own medicine, and they were too excited to bother hiding it.
Demons lay on the ground, his face full of shock; he had never dreamed he would be treated like this one day.
After loosening his muscles, he climbed up from the ground with effort and once again charged into the pharmacy.
Chen Yu handed several medicinal recipes to the proprietor, asking him to prepare the medicines as prescribed.
The proprietor dared not delay, knowing he had a token from Dolan in his hand.
"Wait a moment, this man is an enemy of the Milore Family, and you're not to sell him any medicine."
The proprietor was confused and hastily produced Dolan's token.
"Young Master Demons, this gentleman was sent by Mr. Dolan; how could he possibly be an enemy?"
Demons didn't care about any of that and went straight for Chen Yu's shoulder.
"I don't care who you are; you're not leaving here alive today, no matter what!"
Chen Yu's face was full of annoyance; as far as he was concerned, the guy was simply asking for death.
By now, he had figured out the internal power divisions of the entire Milore Family. This Demons had extremely close ties with the Childe Family.
Dolan had long been aware of this guy's movements and had always wanted to get rid of him once and for all.
Now, even if he killed Demons, no one would utter another word.
