The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Chapter 946 "Laura, I'm thinking about opening a clinic in the city. Is that difficult to do?" Felix asked casually.

Laura chuckled. "Not at all. As long as you have a medical license, you can open one easily."

Having just arrived in Martial City, Felix already had a rough plan.

His primary goal was to strengthen himself, and opening a clinic seemed like the most stable way to achieve that. On the surface, he would treat patients, while in secret, he would purchase rare medicinal herbs for pill cultivation-it seemed like a solid approach.

"How easy is it to acquire rare medicinal herbs here? Is it just a matter of having enough emeralds?" Felix inquired.

Laura could not help but smile knowingly. By now, she had guessed that Felix had to be from the capital. The questions he asked were things no native of Martial City would ever wonder about.

Although Xena had provided Felix with a lot of general knowledge, deeper details about life in Martial City could only come from someone who had lived there.

"If you're looking for rare herbs, I'd suggest joining Harmony Clinic," Laura advised.

She added, "They control most of the medicinal herb trade in Martial City. Even when people find rare herbs on their own, they almost always sell them to Harmony Clinic first—it's practically an unwritten rule."

Felix frowned slightly, realizing it would not be as simple as he thought. After a moment of contemplation, he asked, "Have you heard of pill cultivation?"
