Chapter 551: Wind and Lightning, Come to My Aid!
*Blarrgghh*
Li Xiang spat out a mouthful of blood. He was tossed backward by the force and landed in front of Chen Xiaobei. An ending like this was expected by everyone. Dongtiao Wugui might not be able to defeat Li Xiang if it was a one-versus-one battle. However, with the help of the Octadic Spectral Squad, he managed to defeat Li Xiang with a crushing blow!
“Are you okay?”
Chen Xiaobei bent down and asked. Actually, he already knew the answer before asking this question. With his medicinal skill and Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes, he could see that Li Xiang was hurt badly. The nerves on his right arm were damaged, multiple bones were cracked, and the crushing impact damaged his right lung as well. He would definitely be killed if he were to face off Dongtiao Wugui one more time.
“I’m okay! Blame my bad luck if I die from this battle!”
Li Xiang gritted his teeth. Using all his strength to stand up, he wanted to charge at Dongtiao Wugui again.
“Don’t go. Drink this and I’m willing to listen to the thing that you want to tell me after this matter is settled!”
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei took out a bottle of the Hundred Herbs Potion and handed it to Li Xiang. Needless to say, Li Xiang’s ‘willingness to die’ kind of sincerity had already touched Chen Xiaobei’s heart. Though Chen Xiaobei might not trust him fully, it was at least a successful attempt.
“Alright… I will drink it. Then, I will fight again!”
Taking the Hundred Herbs Potion, Li Xiang finished it without taking a second look at it.
“You don’t have to fight anymore. Just leave Dongtiao Turtle to me!”
Chen Xiaobei tapped on Li Xiang’s shoulder and strode towards Dongtiao Wugui alone.
“Are you crazy?!”
Bewildered, Li Xiang could not figure out what was going on in Chen Xiaobei’s mind. To him, Chen Xaiobei might not even be able to defeat a single member of the Octadic Spectral Squad. Let alone the combined strength from the squad and Dongtiao Wugui! Actually, everyone from the crowd shared the same thought as well.
“Son of a b*tch! Even the vampire that you hired is afraid of me! Where the hell did you find the guts to act tough in front of me? Have you not heard of the saying, stop pretending and you shall live! Hahaha…”
Dongtiao Wugui and the Octadic Spectral Squad laughed aloud. Having the confidence to defeat anyone here, they did not rush to make a move on Chen Xiaobei. All they did was watch him as though he was the clown of the day.
“My lady, that dummy is going on a suicide mission!”
Qiao’er pouted and gave Chen Xiaobei an exasperated look.
“The combined strength of that group is just too powerful for me to handle… At most, I can only influence the battle to end in a draw… If the battle drags on, I will definitely lose due to my current state…”
The masked lady did not bother to listen to her servant. Her pair of beautiful eyes were filled with worry. Initially, she thought that she could at least keep the battle under control with her strength. Somehow, the whole situation went out of control and was now a dead end! No one in the crowd possessed the strength to defeat them; leaving Dongtiao Wugui and the Octadic Spectral Squad the power to play god!
“That kid really is crazy! I have not seen someone walking towards an enemy that is impossible to be defeated!”
“On the other hand, the kid is pretty damn bold! He chose not to bow down to the stupid Japanese! With that, he deserves my compliments!”
“That’s true! I wouldn’t have the courage to deny them if I’m in his place!”
“I will no longer disagree with him setting up his own faction if he can survive this challenge!”
“I really hope that he can come up with something to defeat them! If not, it will not end well for us too!”
…….
The crowd was smart enough to realize the fatality of this event. After all, their opponents were ninjas that came from Japan. Plus, faction leaders Tan and Mu had offended Dongtiao Wugui. China would be on the losing end if an all-out war broke out. With that being said, Chen Xiaobei became their only hope. Things would turn really ugly if he could not defeat those ninjas.
“Bunch of idiots! Just shut the hell up! Mr. Dongtiao and the Octadic Spectral Squad are extremely powerful! Even an idiot will not believe that that kid can defeat them! Apologizing to Mr. Dongtiao is the only way out!”
The crowd was rendered speechless after hearing Elder Qiu’s speech. Hoping that Chen Xiaobei would somehow defeat them was definitely a good wish but reality was always cruel. The power gap between Chen Xiaobei and Dongtiao Wugui was just too huge. Saying that he could defeat Dongtiao Wugui was like hoping a baby could defeat an adult! It was simply not possible! However, the crowd was still holding up; none of them yielded. To them, Chen Xiaobei was the only hope. Though that hope was small, the crowd would not give up until the hope was extinguished.
‘Chen Xiaobei! All hope is on you now!”
As they stared, focusing on Chen Xiaobei, the crowd held their breaths and waited for a miracle to happen.
“Kid, are you tired of your life?”
Dongtiao Wugui did not say a single word. Acting like a dog, Elder Qiu started to bark at Chen Xiaobei for no reason. This was one true traitor of the country!
“I think you have lived too long in this world!”
Chen Xiaobei said in an ice-cold manner while glaring at Elder Qiu. People like him was actually worse than those Japanese!
“F*ck! I dislike you from the very beginning! How dare you make me angry?”
Elder Qiu scolded. Immediately, he put on a disgusting smile and said, “Master Dongtiao, I think you should let me teach this bastard a good lesson!”
“Great. It’s good that he can learn a lesson from this incident! Remember! I want him alive!”
“Yes!”
Putting on a grim smile, Elder Qiu immediately channeled all his True Qi to his body.
“Mr. Chen! Step back! You are going to die! Leave this old bastard to me!” Li Xiang shouted.
“Hehe… It’s not like you can defeat him in this battle. Don’t come here. You will die.” said Chen Xiaobei with a smile. As usual, he acted really calm.
“Gramps, you can’t fight anymore! The Japanese will target and kill you if you take on this old bastard!”
Li Yunlin ran to Li Xiang secretly and tried to talk him out of it.
Standing there like a statue, Li Xiang could not deny the fact that he would lose the battle. All he could do was stare at Chen Xiaobei’s back and mumble, “Alright! I will trust you! I know I’m not wrong in doing so!”
“Bastard! Are you planning to beg for your life?” Elder Qiu shouted haughtily, using his silver True Qi to form ten swords, then pointing them at Chen Xiaobei.
“This is it… I have to do something about it…”
The masked lady was really nervous. She thought Chen Xiaobei would surely be crippled if she did not go and rescue him.
“This is my territory! Only people will beg at me not the other way round!”
He then did something with his mind. Calmly, he said, “Wind, rise! Here comes the lightning!”
Chapter 552: Anyone Else Not Happy With Me?
*Whoosh*
*Rumble*
Suddenly, a strong gust of wind started to ravage the whole place. The sunny sky was filled with lightning; turning day to night! Standing there proudly, Chen Xiaobei lifted one hand facing the sky. In the next moment, a lightning bolt came down, encircling his arm like a snake. The God of Thunder from the Nine Heavens could not even compare to him.
“Good grief… What… What the hell is happening?”
Wind and lightning that came from nowhere caused the panicked crowd to scream and flee to safety. They were left horrified by this fearful scene that came from an unknown source.
“My lady… This thunder is so loud… I’m scared… That… That idiot somehow turned into an almighty thunder god! Is… Is he still the same person?”
Immediately, Qiao’er held on to the masked lady’s arm tightly.
“Yes… This is a formation! A formation that is even more powerful than the previous formation to protect this mountain! As long as the enemies are standing within the covered area of the formation, the one that deploys this formation can decide the fate of the enemies!” The masked lady said fearfully.
*Rumble*
Chen Xiaobei swung his hand and the lightning bolt that looked like a snake struck at Elder Qiu in a flash, which pierced through his body.
“Erk…”
Elder Qiu let out a final wail of agony. Utterly defenseless, he clutched onto his chest and fell to the ground. One could see that Elder Qiu’s chest turned into a mush of charcoaled flesh when the lightning snake vanished. This powerful hit managed to kill a Half Step True Nirvana Stage elite within a split second!
It was a one hit kill!
“Good heavens… This… This… This…”
The crowd screamed in fear and the timid ones collapsed to the ground, shaking uncontrollably.
“That is not True Kang! He… He just summoned actual lightning to attack Elder Qiu! Formation! Quick! Don’t just stand there! We are going to be killed if we lose our formation!”
Screaming in fear, Dongtiao Wugui’s arrogant look was replaced with terror! Without wasting any time, the Octadic Spectral Squad immediately cast their hand seals!
“Stabilize your mind! Channel energy! Synchronize with the universe! Restore! Sense the crisis! Invisibility! Control the time! Control the five elements!”
Nine of them shouted at the same time, Hagoromo ōtsutsuki appeared once again. This time, all of them came up with all their power to attack Chen Xiaobei. It was safe to say that their power had increased by thirty percent!
“Kill!!!”
Dongtiao Wugui shouted in anger and charged at Chen Xiaobei with both fists. Hagoromo ōtsutsuki mimicked the same move as well. Those fists that were as huge as a battle hammer with destructive power came crashing down on Chen Xiaobei.
“This… This is more powerful than the previous attack! I would have died if they had struck me at full force!” Li Xiang said, shocked.
Gulping, Li Yunlin stood frozen in place.
“So powerful… I don’t think I can block this attack… Can you do it?”
The masked lady held her breath and stared at Chen Xiaobei with her crystal-like soulful eyes.
“That young man is so powerful… Elder Qiu was killed by him within a second… Little Brother, come on! Kill those stupid Japanese!”
Qiao’er had no idea how powerful Chen Xiaobei was. Now, she had changed how she looked at him; from addressing him as ‘idiot’, to ‘little brother’. Well, this ‘little brother’ that had no clue what was going on granted the wish in everyone’s hearts.
Everyone in the crowd shared the same thought but they did not shout it out loud.
“Lightning pool, penetrate the sky!”
Suddenly, Chen Xiaobei shouted.
The area was once again filled with lightning. Nine lightning dragons were formed and ascended; tearing the night sky apart and rushed into the heavens.
“Lightning pool! Destroy the earth!”
Chen Xiaobei shouted once again and the nine lightning dragons turned around and charged to the ground at extreme speed. It was as if they were going to turn everything on the ground to ash!
“Such terrifying power… We can’t fight it… Run!”
Before the lightning struck them, Dongtiao Wugui’s already felt the impact of the terrifying force, so much so that it was as though his heart was about to explode. No ordinary human being in this world could go against lightning that came from heaven! Other than fleeing, Dongtiao Wugui could not figure out how to dodge the attack. In any case, no ordinary human being could outrun lightning!
*Rumble*
*Rumble*
*Rumble*
*Rumble*
*Rumble*
*Rumble*
*Rumble*
*Rumble*
*Rumble*
Along the nine loud rumbles, the image of Hagoromo ōtsutsuki vanished into thin air. He did not even get to have a chance to defend himself. Meanwhile, Dongtiao Wugui and the Octadic Spectral Squad fell to the ground. With their hairs standing on end and smoke coming out from their bodies, they were all dead!
Chen Xiaobei did not even give them a chance to beg for their lives. He then glanced at the bodies like they were a pile of dead ants.
“Regarding establishing the faction… I’m still going through with! Is there anyone who disagrees? Speak up now!”
While thunder was still rumbling in the sky, Chen Xiaobei looked at everyone in a calm manner. Though he sounded relaxed, a powerful and arrogant aura emanated from his tone. There should be no here who had the guts to reject him!
Faction Leader Tan, Faction Leader Mu, Li Xiang, and the masked lady were the most powerful beings right there. However, all four of them could not help but feel terrified by Chen Xiaobei’s power. Clearly, they knew that they might not be able to defeat Dongtiao Wugui and the Octadic Spectral Squad even if they worked together. It went beyond their imaginations that Chen Xiaobei would summon nine lightning dragons and kill them within seconds! Moreover, the lightning pool could summon one hundred and eight lightning dragons! It was enough for them to die a thousand times! If the four of them were impressed by Chen Xiaobei’s power, the weaker ones had to bow to his power.
“Faction Leader Chen! You have earned our respect! The ones that disagree with you setting a faction here in Dragon City are our enemies now!”
“With Faction Leader Chen’s skill to summon lightning dragons, we as the folk of Dragon City are extremely proud of it!”
“Also, he killed all those stupid Japanese! We are all so glad that he brought glory to us Chinese! He has now become our pride!”
“That’s right! I will only listen to Faction Leader Chen from now on!”
……
Feeling excited, the crowd’s attitude towards Chen Xiaobei had changed completely! Now, the way they looked at him was filled with respect and idolatry.
“Everyone, be quiet! The incident had taken too much time! We should let Faction Leader Chen name his faction first! Missing the right timing is a bad omen!” Faction Leader Mu suddenly interrupted in a serious tone.
The crowd clammed up immediately and focused their attention on Chen Xiaobei.
“Alright! Thank you so much for witnessing me naming my faction!”
Chen Xiaobei smiled gently. With the Ma Liang Divine Pen in his hand, he strode towards the huge stone in front of his faction. Relaxing his mind, Chen Xiaobei stared to engrave words on the stone. The golden pen moved around the huge stone to form two words.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Bei Xuan!”
Chapter 553: Such Fate
At Bei Xuan Faction.
The sound of cheering and commendation filled the place the moment Chen Xiaobei kept his Ma Liang Divine Pen.
“Congratulations Faction Leader Chen for setting up a new faction in Dragon City! Here, I hope that your faction will grow exponentially!”
“Congratulations Faction Leader Chen… Bravo!”
“Actions always speaks louder than words! I propose that everyone prepare a gift for Leader Chen later to congratulate him for setting up Bei Xuan Faction!”
“That’s right! A gift is a must!”
At this moment, the crowd’s attitude towards Chen Xiaobei had changed completely. There was no one in the crowd that had the guts to go against him. Waves and waves of praise reflected the respect and admiration that the crowd had towards Chen Xiaobei. Standing beside the huge stone, Chen Xiaobei was indulging the attention that he got from the crowd.
As the first and only disciple of Bei Xuan Faction, Feng Qingyang received quite a number of compliments as well. Certainly, he was really proud of himself. Truth be told, being able to turn the tide was all thanks to the absolute power that Chen Xiaobei possessed!
‘Take a step back and think about this. Without the Lightning Pool Formation, the ending would have been completely different! Also, all glory goes to the Red Envelope Group because that was where Chen Xiaobei acquired this item!”
“I should communicate and socialize with the members of Red Envelope more frequently after making sure everything is in place! My combat power was still rather weak and I really need to acquire more Spiritual Qi to make myself become stronger! I shall become the ruler of my own fate! Letting my Sifu down is a big no-no!”
Chen Xiaobei might look relaxed from the surface but he did not let that pride get to his head. On the contrary, he constantly reminded himself that he should not stop pursuing more power! Of course, he would never stop to find ways to increase his wealth as well!
“Everyone, please adjourn to the grand hall. As I promised all of you earlier, the auction shall proceed as usual!”
With that being said, Chen Xiaobei led the crowd to the grand hall personally. The crowd was extremely thrilled after hearing Chen Xiaobei’s announcement. Originally, they came here with the purpose of purchasing martial arts manuals. The unexpected incident that happened earlier had caused them to doubt that the martial art manuals auction was something that Chen Xiaobei made up to trick them.
Now that it was proven true, the crowd was more than happy to follow Chen Xiaobei to the grand hall. Needless to say, the auction went by smoothly. However, there were three people who left the place without anyone noticing them. One of them was Li Xiang. Considering that he was stuck in his true form of a blood descendant, he had to look for a hidden place to transform himself back to normal looking human being – it would avoid unnecessary troubles as well.
The rest of the two people that left the place were two ladies.
“My lady, why are we leaving so early? Qiao’er wants to watch little bro’s auction!”
Qiao’er pouted – dissatisfied.
“I don’t feel so good. So, I want to head back to get some rest.”
“Not feeling well? But, you are smiling!”
Qiao’er tilted her head – baffled.
“How did you know that I’m smiling? My mask is not even off…”
Surprised, the masked lady thought that her servant possessed a pair of eyes that could see through objects.
“I grew up together with you, my lady. By listening to your voice, I can tell your current mood! If I’m not mistaken, your face is flushed! Tell me quick! Something good must have happened! It has been a long time since the last time you smiled!”
“What… What kind of good things could have happened to me? You are not a psychic! So, stop making wild guesses!”
“It’s totally okay if you don’t want to admit it… I have just read your mind!”
“Tell me then. What was I thinking?”
“*Cough* I think you are interested in that little bro!” Qiao’er stated in a serious tone, after clearing her throat.
“Nonsense! I don’t even know him!”
“Well, love at first sight could happen even if you don’t know him! His name is Chen Xiaobei and your name is Liu Xuanxin. Surprisingly, he just named his faction Bei Xuan! ‘Bei’ and ‘Xuan’! Can you see it? It’s fate. If I’m not mistaken, that’s what made you smile!”
“Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! You guessed it all wrong! Uhm…”
Instantly, the masked lady denied all of Qiao’er’s assumptions. Seconds later, she let out a yelp.
“My lady! Are you alright?”
Feeling nervous, Qiao’er quickly went and supported the masked lady.
“My stubborn illness is coming back… Send me home immediately…” said the masked lady, who seemed to be in much pain. Considering that she just recovered from her illness, her body was still rather weak. The fact that she went through an emotional roller coaster was enough to cause a relapse. Plus, there were a few times that she channeled True Qi to her body to get ready to assist Chen Xiaobei. Though she did not actually fight, the risk of her illness returning was greatly increased!
“Fret not my lady! I will take you home safely!”
Qiao’er might be young but she possessed a certain level of cultivation. Immediately, she carried Liu Xuanxin on her back and started to run home effortlessly.
…
At Xuanjian Faction.
There were few doctors worked together to slow down Liu Xuanxin’s illness in her room. Feeling worried and anxious, Liu Chunyi paced outside her room. Having offended Elder Luo, he was forced to hire other doctors to treat his sister. Though all those doctors were pretty reputable in Dragon City, their medicinal skill still could not compare to Elder Luo’s. An hour passed and Liu Xuanxin’s condition was not improving.
Suddenly, an old doctor ran out of the room and spoke in a nervous tone.
“Master Liu, Lady Liu’s condition is just too weird! There is nothing we can do about it! I think you should look for other doctors with better medicinal skills to treat her! If not, she might lose her life anytime soon!”
“Bunch of trash! Get lost!”
Liu Chunyi roared. He then channeled energy to his body and ran to the mountain that was located at the back of Xuanjian Faction. This was the forbidden ground of Xuanjian Faction. A seven-story pagoda laid there under the moon. With a somber atmosphere surrounding the area, no ordinary person would dare to get close to this place.
Beneath the pagoda was the main area of Xuanjian Mountain. All the Spiritual Qi from the mountain had to go through this spot. The size of this spot was hundreds of times larger than Hundred Beast Mountain’s! Naturally, the Spiritual Qi was more concentrated, purer, and richer! The ancestors of Xuanjian Faction were wise enough to occupy this place and build a formation to gather Spiritual Qi for their future disciples.
The reason Liu Chunyi was known as the most powerful prodigy was due to his great talent and being able to train at this huge spiritual pulse! Of course, the rumor of Liu Chunyi as the powerful elite in Jianghu was not entirely true. When it came to cultivation, Liu Xuanxin was more powerful! Unfortunately, she was afflicted by some kind of strange condition. No one knew how powerful she was when she could not showcase her martial arts.
However, Liu Xuanxin had another secret! There were only two people on this earth knew about this secret!
“Grandpa… I have something to inform you…”
Standing at the entrance of the pagoda, Liu Chunyi bowed and said politely. A hoarse voice could be heard before the door was opened.
“What kind of thing is so important that you have to interrupt my training? Don’t you know that I’m using all my might to achieve the Pinnacle Phase of True Nirvana Stage?”
The person that was talking to Liu Chunyi was none other than Liu Xiyuan!
Chapter 554: Fruitful Reward
Liu Xiyuan!
He was known as the most powerful Jianghu elite on China’s Battle God leaderboard! As the faction leader of the most powerful faction – Xuanjian, he was considered to be the one and only elite that could break through True Nirvana Stage and step foot in higher cultivation! Until now, he had already been training at this seven-story pagoda for almost a hundred days. However, the higher one’s cultivation was the harder it was to achieve a breakthrough! Though he had been training non-stop, he still stopped at Pinnacle Phase of True Nirvana Stage.
Naturally, he felt angry and frustrated since he could not achieve any breakthrough so far. Seeing that Liu Xiyuan was having a bad time, Liu Chunyi uttered in an extremely respectful manner, “Xuanxin’s illness is returning…”
“Why do you have to bother me with such small business? Just go and ask Elder Luo to treat her!” demanded Liu Xiyuan impatiently.
“This…” Liu Chunyi gulped and said, “Well, I befriended an alchemist earlier. So, I thought that Elder Luo was useless to us… As a result, I kind of offended him…”
“What an idiot! Do you know who Elder Luo is? Even I have to show him some respect! How dare you offend him? It doesn’t matter anymore! Just go and ask that alchemist that you befriended to treat Xuanxin! I remember that his pill was really effective!”
“Uhm… Master Ma doesn’t possess that pill anymore… The one that concocted that pill was another alchemist!”
“Cut the crap! I don’t care who he is! Just go and ask him to come here! Don’t you forget Liu Xuanxin’s usefulness! Our twenty years’ worth of preparation would be wasted if she dies!”
“I do remember Liu Xuanxin’s usefulness… But… That alchemist made a request that crossed the line…”
“Nonsense! As compared to Liu Xuanxin’s cultivation, is there anything more important than that?”
“That kid wanted me to give up the Dragon Void Sword in exchange for saving Liu Xuanxin’s life! Should… Should I agree to this request?”
“What?!”
Earlier, Liu Xiyuan sounded really generous by saying that he could give anything in exchange for Liu Xuanxin’s life. Things changed when he heard that the alchemist was asking for the Dragon Void Sword. Instantly, he was rendered speechless. One could see that the Dragon Void Sword was the treasure of the Liu Family. Surrendering it to others was simply out of the question! Speaking of which, Liu Xuanxin did carry some importance in Liu Family as well. Letting her die was definitely not an option!
“It that’s the case… A long time ago, you had connections with some high-ranking military personnel, right? I remember that they forged a batch of replicated Dragon Void Sword. Just grab one in exchange for the pill!”
Liu Xiyuan put some thought into it and said.
“Using a replicated sword to fool that kid? What if he somehow manages to identify the authenticity of the sword?”
“Kill him and grab the pill if he manages to identify the replicated sword! You should know this better than anyone else! Bring nine elders with you! He will have to succumb even if he is a dragon or tiger!”
“Okay! I’m going to do it now!”
Both eyes with a menacing aura, Liu Chunyi was more alive than before.
…..
At Bei Xuan Faction.
The auction had finally come to an end. All six martial arts manuals were sold out and their prices were higher than he expected. Each martial arts manual’s started the bid at one hundred million. In the end, Heart Gouging Dragon Claw was sold for four hundred million, Seven-Two Ways to Master Ringen for five hundred million, Divine Dragon Rod Skill for six hundred million, Ultimate King Kong Kick for four hundred and fifty million, Cloud Stepping Movement Skill for six hundred and fifty million, and finally Muscle Bone Disruptor was sold for four hundred million!
A total of three billion was transferred to Chen Xiaobei’s bank account within a night – making him the happiest man on earth! The quality of the martial arts manuals was the reason why they could be sold at such a high price. Beyond that, the folks from Dragon City Jianghu actually wanted to befriend Chen Xiaobei. Knowing that the opportunity to befriend Chen Xiaobei was presented before them, the crowd immediately competed with each other to purchase the martial arts manuals.
In the end, the price of each martial arts manual increased exponentially. Though some of them bought the martial arts manuals at an unreasonable price, they still felt happy being able to talk to Chen Xiaobei. Of course, the happiest man on that night was Chen Xiaobei!
After winning the previous battle, Chen Xiabei’s reputation increased tremendously. From that day onwards, no one would have the guts to mess with Bei Xuan Faction anymore. With the purpose of building a good relationship with Chen Xiaobei, most of the faction leaders took the initiative to propose becoming allied forces with Bei Xuan Faction.
Reputation was equivalent to fame and fame is equivalent to face! On that night, Chen Xiaobei’s head was bigger than heaven. Even Feng Qingyang managed to draw some attention to himself! Having three billion being transferred to his bank account, Chen Xiaobei’s total wealth had increased to ten billion! The gap between his wealth and Lan Family’s wealth drew closer. With his four billion worth of property, four hundred and ninety million worth of cash, and a one hundred and fifty million worth of IOUs, Chen Xiaobei could use his money to invest in something to continue making even more money!
To Chen Xiaobei, possessing more wealth than Lan Family was no longer a dream! That being said, he could a sense of euphoria slowly filling his body. Other than money and fame, Chen Xiaobei received something that no one knew! That was Three Realms Merit Points! Killing Elder Qiu and nine Japanese with lightning granted him sixty thousand merit points.
All those nine Japanese had done something good for their country – their level of villainy was not as high. The total merit points Chen Xiaobei gained from all nine of them were only thirty thousand merit points! On the contrary, Elder Qiu must have done something really evil in his life. He was classified as Three Generation Villain! Him alone granted Chen Xiaobei thirty thousand merit points!
Ding!
[Your current merit points is 260,000. You need another 40,000 merit points to proceed to the next level! (Charm: 26,000. Luck: 26,000)]
“I just need a little more merit points to go to next level! Owning three hundred and thirty thousand merit points was my highest record! It seems like I’m about to break that record! Hahaha!”
“Sifu! Members of Xuanjian Faction are here! They are standing outside the Puzzle Formation! Liu Chunyi led a group of people personally. Other than that, the nine most powerful elders from Xuanjian Faction are with him as well! Clearly, they are not friendly!”
Upon hearing that, the crowd was baffled.
“They are here to seek revenge! Xuanjian Faction plays a rather domination role in the current state of Jianghu! Knowing that Elder Qiu died here, they would definitely not let you off the hook easily!”
Faction Leader Chen, I think it’s best for you not to meet them for now. Xuanjian Faction is not the kind of faction that you can afford to mess with!”
“That’s right! Faction Leader Chen, you should make a move now! Let us explain the current situation to Liu Chunyi first. You can then return later. If not, you are going to risk your life by meeting with them!”
…
The crowd was worried that Chen Xiaobei would lose his life to the members of Xuanjian Faction. However, Chen Xiaobei looked indifferent.
“Qingyang, bring them to Elder Qiu’s body and wait for me!” Chen Xiaobei ordered.
“This… I will heed!”
Though Feng Qingyang was extremely worried, he did not dare to disobey Chen Xiaobei.
“Everyone, please come with me!” Chen Xiaobei instructed with a smile.
Chapter 555: Just Kill
“Faction Leader Chen, you can’t go! Liu Chunyi is famous for his arrogant attitude. His mood determines how he deals with stuff! You will definitely be taken advantage of if you meet him now!”
“Doesn’t really matter to me. I can kill him whenever I want if he messes with me!”
Chen Xiaobei shrugged his shoulders and put on an innocent smile.
“No! Please don’t do that!”
“Faction Leader Chen, you lightning summoning skill is really powerful! But you must know that Liu Xiyuan, the most powerful person in Jianghu is supporting Liu Chunyi!” Flustered, Faction Leader Tan quickly advised Chen Xiaobei.
“Heh heh… Well, I can summon lightning to strike Liu Xiyuan if he comes looking for me!”
*Gasp*
All three hundred Jianghu Folks took a deep breath at the same time. A simple statement from Chen Xiaobei created a nuclear level explosion in everyone’s heart.
‘Making a statement like this is more than insane!’
“Everyone, stop panicking! I was just kidding. All I ever did was kill one of their elders. I don’t think Xuanjian Faction would care about it at all!”
“This… This is not possible…”
Immediately, Faction Leader Mu shook his head and said, “Xuanjian Faction is famous for their power play! They do care about their members! All this while, they have no problem bullying others but they would never allow others to bully them! Let alone killing one of their elders! Threatening them might bring you disastrous consequences!”
“So, this is a power play?”
“That’s right! There was once that someone in the Jianghu mocked one the elders of Xuanjian Faction and he was killed on the spot!”
“This is Jianghu… The strong always prey on the weak! No one would have the guts to mess with Xuanjian Faction as long as Liu Xiyuan is alive and kicking!”
Promptly, everyone in the crowd nodded their heads to indicate that they agreed with Faction Leaders Tan and Mu. Judging from their looks, one knew that terrible consequences would befall those who went against Xuanjian Faction! Speak of the devil; a group of middle-aged men was behind Feng Qingyang and was fast approaching Chen Xiaobei.
Immediately, everyone including Faction Leader Tan and Mu zipped their mouths and took a few steps back unconsciously. Clearly, Liu Chunyi was here! The crowd was afraid that they might be dragged into this trouble. Feeling no fear, Chen Xiaobei was the only person wanted to laugh out loud.
“Damn! Master Chen! A pleasure to finally see you again!”
In a hurried manner, Liu Chunyi strode towards Chen Xiaobei. However, he did not draw his sword like everyone expected earlier! On the contrary, he put on a smile and acted really polite towards Chen Xiaobei.
“What… What the hell is happening?” The crowd looked baffled.
‘Where is the arrogance? Where is the power play? Isn’t Liu Chunyi supposed to kill Chen Xiaobei on sight? It there something wrong with Liu Chunyi?’
Showing no emotion while everyone was shocked to the core, Chen Xiaobei had no intention to act politely.
“I killed one of your elder’s earlier by accident! I think his surname was Qiu. What are you going to about it?”
All nine elders that stood behind Liu Chunyi were enraged after hearing Chen Xiaobei’s confession.
“What?! You killed Elder Qiu?”
“Motherf*cker! How dare you kill Elder Qiu! We are so going to kill your whole family!”
“That’s right! We, Xuanjian Faction will lose our reputation if we don’t avenge Elder Qiu!”
…….
Obviously, all nine of them did not know Liu Chunyi’s intention of coming here. Instantly, they drew their swords and prepared to battle Chen Xiaobei.
“Everyone! Shut up! Master Chen is Xuanjian Faction’s important guest! Don’t blame me for killing you if you mess with him!”
Immediately, all nine elder and the crowd were stunned. There must be something wrong with Liu Chunyi because he just defended Chen Xiaobei!
“It seems like your elders are not happy with what I did earlier!”
“I dare them to disobey me!”
Liu Chunyi then glared at them. Changing his expression within seconds, a smile was put on when he turned around and talked to Chen Xiaobei.
“It’s just an elder! I’m not bothered that you killed him! Master Chen, your position in Jianghu is powerful! He should feel honored that he was killed by you!”
“Hehe… I like what you just said! I think you learned all these boot-licking stuff from the boot-licking master that you met earlier! What if I told you I want to kill all these nine elders as well?”
“This…”
Perplexed, Liu Chunyi never expected that Chen Xiaobei would come up with a request like this. He was rendered speechless. Looking like a pack of hungry wolves, all those nine elders could not wait to devour Chen Xiaobei.
“Hehe… Chill… I was just joking! You should really take a look at your face!”
Chen Xiaobei laughed in a mocking manner.
“However, I feel like you don’t really give a shit about your elders, right? If you don’t treat them with respect, I’m afraid they won’t serve you well anymore!”
Bewilderment was reflected in Liu Chunyi’s eyes as he realized that he just fell into Chen Xiaobei’s trap! Seemingly, Chen Xiaobei was trying to create a rift between him and the nine elders. Having everyone watching him, Liu Chunyi did not say no to Chen Xiaobei while Chen Xiaobei mentioned that he wanted to kill all the nine elders! As expected, all those nine elders shifted their attention to Liu Chunyi. Anger and fear could be seen on their faces.
That being said, Liu Chunyi was a realist. He did not mind to sacrificing all of them if the thing he valued outweighed their lives! One could see that Chen Xiaobei succeeded in driving a wedge between Liu Chunyi and the nine elders. Realizing that Chen Xiaobei’s tactic was working, those nine elders felt fear slowly taking over their bodies. Their loyalty towards the Liu Family was already shaken!
That was because was Chen Xiaobei said was the truth. He did not create it out of the thin air. Finally, Liu Chunyi’s true colors were revealed! Realizing that all the nine elders’ minor change in their Qi field, Liu Chunyi did not bother to explain himself. Plus, he did not dare to make Chen Xiaobei angry as well!
“Master Chen! Forgive me that I can’t continue to chit-chat with you! There is something urgent that I have to attend! Please give the pill to save my sister!”
Liu Chunyi said politely.
“Pill? Is Faction Leader Chen an alchemist?”
The crowd quickly realized that the reason behind Liu Chunyi’s politeness. Seemingly, he wanted to ask for a special pill to save his sister!
“Do you still remember the thing that I told you last time?”
“Of course…”
Without a second thought, Liu Chunyi held the Dragon Void Sword in both hands and offered it to Chen Xiaobei.
“Here is the Dragon Void Sword! Please take it!”
Everyone was left stunned!
Chapter 556: Waiting for the Big Fish to Take the Bait
With hands holding the Dragon Void, Liu Chunyi eagerly wanted Chen Xiaobei to take it. Bewildered, the crowd could not believe the scene that they were witnessing. The Dragon Void was the most prized treasure of the Liu Family and everyone knew that! It was actually easier for the crowd to believe that Liu Chunyi offered his private part to Chen Xiaobei rather than the sword.
Immediately, the way the crowd looked at Chen Xiaobei changed once again – it changed from admiration and idolatry to reverence and doubt! Fear crept out of nowhere and invaded the crowd. Everyone was trying to guess Chen Xiaobei’s real identity but none of them had an answer for it. The only thing that they knew was that Chen Xiaobei was an alchemist that deserved Liu Chunyi’s massive respect!
As expected, Chen Xiaobei’s reputation soared again. Even Li Xiang was surprised by the turn of events, after transforming back to human form. At that moment, he was certain that working with Chen Xiaobei was definitely a wise move!
Everyone was witnessing that moment with their eyes wide open, as Chen Xiaobei took the sword with one hand. With a smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei said calmly, “Hehe… I did not expect you to willingly surrender most prized possession! I shall give you the pill to save your sister’s life!”
Promptly, Chen Xiaobei reached into his pocket and tapped on his cellphone blindly. He retrieved his last Taiyi Life Enhancement Pill and handed it to Liu Chunyi.
“Thank you, Master Chen! Thank you so much…”
With an excited look, Liu Chunyi showed his gratitude to Chen Xiaobei.
“Alright, saving your sister’s life should be your priority now! Go now.”
Chen Xiaobei waved his hand. Seemingly, a corner of his mouth was raised to the extent that it looked like he was smiling.
“Let’s go!”
With his hand waving at his followers, Liu Chunyi used his signature movement skill and left Bei Xuan Faction like a phantom. Immediately, nine elders followed closely behind him. The rest of the three hundred people took their leave as well. In the end, only Feng Qingyang, Li Xiang, and Li Yunlin remained at Bei Xuan Faction.
“Sifu, are you going to rest here or return home tonight?”
“There’s no need to rush. I just threw a bait and I want to know who is going to take it.”
All the Jianghu folk around Chen Xiaoei were extremely experienced in matters like these. Clearly, they had already figured out his motive.
“Earlier, I noticed that you tried to drive a wedge between the nine elders and Liu Chunyi. Are you trying to test the nine elders’ loyalty towards the Liu Family?” Li Xiang asked.
“That’s right.”
“I don’t think their loyalty can be shaken that easily… Even if your words managed to drive the nine elders apart from the Liu Family, I don’t think they will show it that early!” Feng Qingyang said with a frown. Li Yunlin nodded to indicated that he agreed with Feng Qingyang’s point of view.
“I’m not too sure about it as well. I just want to try my luck as I believe that I’m quite a lucky guy.”
Having to have a great boost to his luck not too long ago, this was the best time for Chen Xiaobei to use his luck. Around ten minutes later, the Puzzle Flag in Feng Qingyang’s hand vibrated lightly.
“Sifu, someone one is standing outside the Puzzle Formation. That should be the ‘fish’ that you are waiting for!” said Feng Qingyang, visibly stunned.
“Bring him here since you know he is the fish that I’m waiting for.”
“This is just like magic!”
Li Xiang and Li Yunlin were surprised. They even started to doubt that Chen Xiaobei was a deity that possessed the ability to predict the future! Soon, Feng Qingyang came back with an old man in his sixties following behind him. With a sword in his hand, the old man looked really energetic and a dominant aura surrounded him.
Ding!
[Cultivation: Pinnacle phase of Qi refining stage. Health: 20,000. Combat power: 20,000 (+8000)]
A glance at his Netherspirit Battlescouter, Chen Xiaobei knew that this old man was an elite with Half Step True Nirvana Stage. He should be in the center of the elite hierarchy in the Liu Family.
“Master Chen! My name is Qi Yuehuo, an elder of Xuanjian Faction. I am here to ask for a favor. I hope you can help me…” In a polite manner, the elder strode towards Chen Xiaobei, bowing.
“You should know that my relationship with Xuanjian Faction is bad. Why should I help you?”
“Yes. I do know that. That is why I took the risk to return here! I’m willing to quit Xuanjian Faction if Master Chen can do me a favor. I will promise you that I will stay loyal to Bei Xuan Faction until the end of my life!”
“Hehe… Everyone can say something like this… What I need is a reason that can convince me to help you. I don’t need you to promise me anything.”
Feeling shocked, Qi Yuehuo now knew that even though the kid that stood in front of him was only in his twenties, his state of mind and wisdom were better than some of the experienced Jianghu elites! It was simply not possible to fool him!
“I’m willing to tell you a secret! Liu Chunyi would kill me if Master Chen goes and confronts him about it!”
“Secret? Okay. I’m all ears.”
Chen Xiaobei nodded his head, knowing that he could use the secret as leverage as long as the secret was highly valuable and he would not need to worry that Qi Yuehuo might betray him.
“The Dragon Void Sword in your hand is just a replica!”
“What?!”
Upon listening to Qi Yuehuo’s claim, Li Xiang, Li Yunlin, and Feng Qingyang were left in bewilderment. Immediately, all three of them took a closer look at the sword.
“Clouds are engraved on the sheath and dragons are engraved on the handle of the sword! Judging from the material that made this sword and the size of it, this sword definitely looked like the real deal to me! How is it possible that it is just a replicated item?”
Considering that Feng Qingyang was an experienced Jianghu elite, he knew quite a lot about the Dragon Void Sword. He just could not find anything wrong with this sword.
“Moreover, I don’t think Liu Chunyi is bold enough to hand you a fake Dragon Void Sword in front of everyone, right?”
Li Yunlin expressed his doubt as well.
“A fake Dragon Void Sword in exchange for a valuable pill! Liu Family’s face would be destroyed if this is real!”
Li Xiang nodded his head and said.
“Judging on how all of you view the Liu Family, that proves that all of you don’t know Liu Family well enough! Liu Xiyuan and Liu Chunyi might look high and mighty on the surface, but the truth is they always have their dirty deeds done in the dark!”
Upon hearing that, Chen Xiaobei put on a smile on his face. Others might not know the true colors of Liu Chunyi but Chen Xiaobei had already known that he was a hypocrite the first time he saw him. He was not surprised that Liu Chunyi gave him a fake Dragon Void Sword in exchange for his pill. That was why Chen Xiaobei could remain calm while others were still left in shock.
“Master Chen, just pass me the sword if you don’t believe in me! I can break it easily with my twenty thousand combat power!”
“That is not necessary. Actually, I knew there was something wrong when Liu Chunyi handed me the sword without hesitation. I’m willing to believe in you. Tell me, what can I do for you?”
Chapter 557: Get Lost from Here
“So, this is the case. Half a year ago, my son was assigned to carry out an assignment for the faction. He ended up with heavy injuries when he returned home. Unfortunately, the doctors couldn’t do anything about it. In the end, I had to beg Liu Chunyi several times to ask him to ask Elder Luo to heal my son. However, Liu Chunyi rejected me each time.”
“Initially, I thought Liu Chunyi was too busy to do me this favor. Sometime after, I heard that my son offended him before. That was why he refused to do me this favor! Even though I was furious, I did not dare to criticize him. I was hoping that Liu Chunyi will not hold any grudge against my son someday.”
“However, I came to a realization earlier that Liu Chunyi doesn’t even care about us! I guess he has decided that he would not help me no matter what. So, I was left with no options but to come and beg you for help. I fear that my Qi Family will cease to have a next generation if it delays any longer since he is my only son!”
Upon hearing Elder Qi’s story, everyone was really angry.
‘Liu Chunyi is such a despicable person! What a shameless bastard! The crowd couldn’t wait to slap him a few times diffuse their fury!”
“Alright, I will help you.”
“Thank you, Master Chen! Thank you so much… Please accept my bow…”
Initially, Qi Yuehuo thought that Chen Xiaobei would definitely make things difficult for him. He was expecting Chen Xiaobei to ask for something from him. Little did he know, Chen Xiaobei agreed to help without asking for anything in return. It was enough to touch the deepest part of his soul. Immediately, he knelt down in front of Chen Xiaobei.
…
A peaceful night passed.
On the second morning, Qi Yuehuo led Chen Xiaobei to the best hospital in Dragon City. As for Li Xiang, Chen Xiaobei asked him to wait up until he helped out Qi Yuehuo.
In the intensive care unit of the hospital.
Qi Yuehuo’s son, Qi Zhenxin was lying on the sick bed. He was wide awake but looked lethargic. At that time, a famous doctor was doing some routine checkup on the patients with a nurse.
Seeing Elder Qi and Chen Xiaobei entering the room, the doctor greeted them.
“Elder Qi! Morning! Why are you here at such an early hour?”
“Good morning to you too. I have invited a miracle doctor to heal my son! That is why I’m here at this hour!”
“Miracle doctor? Where is he?”
Dr. Jiang tried looking around but he did not see anyone coming into the room. Immediately, Elder Qi pointed at Chen Xiaobei and said, “This is the miracle doctor that I mentioned earlier!”
“What? Elder Qi, you must be kidding me, right? This kid is a miracle doctor?”
Dr. Jiang could not help but roll his eyes at Chen Xiaobei. Considering that he had been working in the medical field for decades, he knew clearly that was only so few could earn the title, miracle doctor! All of them were reputable elderly.
“If this kid is a miracle doctor, then, I should call myself the god of healing!’
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Father… This doesn’t sound right to me… How old is this teenager?” Qi Zhenxin asked weakly.
“Watch your tongue! Where are your manners? Do not offend Master Chen! If not, your wounds will not be healed for the rest of your life!”
“Master?”
Bewildered, Qi Zhenxin did not believe in Chen Xiaobei but he did not dare to defy his father – his kept silent immediately. Witnessing this farce, the young nurse was trying her best to hold back from laughing. To her, Elder Qi was not in his right mind anymore and Chen Xiaobei was just a quack that he met in the market! Of course, she was just a new employee with a low position in the hospital. That was why she did not express her thoughts through words.
On the other hand, Dr. Jiang possessed a completely different position in this hospital. As Qi Zhenxin’s attending doctor, he had the right to say whatever that was on his mind.
“Elder Qi, you cannot believe in this kind of Jianghu quack! I wouldn’t mind if you asked a quack to heal your son if your son is diagnosed with light injuries or illness! Mr. Qi’s illness is really serious! One wrong step could cost his life! Leaving him to a quack is equivalent to murder!”
“Mr. Jiang, don’t you worry! I’m confident in Master Chen’s healing skill! We will bear all the consequences if things go awry!”
“No way! I’m the attending doctor of Mr. Qi! I will never agree to it! Mr. Qi needs to leave this hospital if you insist on letting this quack heal him!”
“You… You can’t do this to me! My son will not survive if you ask him to leave this hospital now!”
“I don’t care! This is my hospital! You are obliged to follow our rules!”
“I…”
Elder Qi was so angry that he could not wait to slap the bastard.
“Can I say something?” Chen Xiaobei voiced out suddenly.
“Speak your mind! Get lost after you say what you want to say! Do not interrupt my routine checkup on my patient!”
“Hehe… Actually, I demand you to get lost from here!”
“Son of a bitch! How dare you speak to me like this?! Have you heard of my name, Jiang Wenbin?! No one would dare to speak to me rudely in this hospital!” said Dr. Jiang with a condescending glare.
‘This kid is so arrogant! Going against Jiang Wenbin will not land you any benefits in this hospital!’
Elder Qi and Qi Zhenxin were left in an awkward situation. That was because Jiang Wenbin’s identity was special in this hospital. Going against Jiang Wenbin was equivalent to going against the whole hospital. The consequences could be quite dire.
However, Chen Xiaobei was adamant. “You refuse to get out? Alright, I will ask someone to shoo you out!”
“You want to look for people to shoo me out from my hospital? Hmph! Have you forgotten you are standing in my territory?!”
Immediately, Jiang Wenbin took out his cell phone and called security.
“Chief Wang, being a few security guards to 033 intensive care unit! Right! Now!”
At the same time, Chen Xiaobei took out his cell phone and called someone as well.
“Jiang Zihua! Come to 033 intensive care unit now!”
“Who… Who did you just call?”
Standing there shocked, the name, Jiang Zihua was well-known in this hospital!
“Good morning director… Hello director… Director, why are you running? Slow down…”
Soon, a series of greetings could be heard outside the room. The person was none other than the director of this hospital, Jiang Zihua! Running with urgency, Jiang Zihua put on a smile when he saw Chen Xiaobei.
“Miracle doctor Chen! Long time no see! You should have called me before you came here! I would want to welcome you personally at the entrance of the hospital!”
“Cut the crap! Ask that crook to get out from this room!”
Chen Xiaobei pointed at Jiang Wenbin in an impatient manner.
“Wenbin?”
“Dad?”
Chapter 558: Crimson Voodoo Worm
“Wenbin? Why are you here?” Jiang Zihua asked, bewildered.
“I…”
Thinking that his own father cared about Chen Xiaobei more than him, Jiang Wenbin almost spurted a mouth of blood to the ceiling. However, this was not the right time to talk about thing like this.
Immediately, Jiang Wenbin said, “I was about to do a routine checkup on Mr. Qi. Suddely, a quack doctor barged into this room. I just called the security to remove him from this hospital…”
“Quack doctor? You idiot! Mr. Chen is the miracle doctor that made Elder Luo admit defeat in terms of medical skills! How dare you say that he is a quack?!”
“What? He… He is better than Elder Luo?”
Rendered speechless, Jiang Wenbin could not believe the fact that the teenager that stood in front of him was better than Elder Luo.
“Why are you still standing there? Didn’t you hear the miracle doctor Mr. Chen asking you to get out from this room? Get lost now! Now! Now!” Jiang Zihua said briskly.
“Alright! I will leave now…”
Gulping down a mouthful of saliva, Jiang Wenbin had never seen his father unleash such unbridled anger on him.
‘Who the hell was I messing with?’
With a frustrating feeling, Jiang Wenbin left the intensive care unit – crestfallen.
“I… I’m leaving as well.”
Seeing that Jiang Wenbin was forced to leave the room, the nurse’s body shook uncontrollably due to fear. She was afraid that Chen Xiaobei might say something to make the director of the hospital fire her. Little did she know, Chen Xiaobei was not even paying any attention to her.
On the other hand, Elder Qi and Qi Zhenxin were still in a state of shock. Seemingly, Elder Qi was elated – feeling glad that he did not ask the wrong person to cure his son. With Chen Xiaobei’s help, his son could definitely recover from his illness!
Qi Zhenxin felt surprised and delighted at the same time. The surprising part was that the teenager that stood in front of him possessed the authority to ask the son of the director of this hospital to get out from this room. The delighted bit was that his illness could finally be cured! Fortunately, he did not say anything bad to offend Chen Xiaobei. He would have regretted a lot if he did!
“You have to leave the room as well!”
Chen Xiaobei waved his hands to signal Jiang Zihua to leave the room as well. All this while, Chen Xiaobei never like this cunning fox, Jiang Zihua. Some time ago, Chen Xiaobei and Elder Luo were the one that cured Madam Diana’s illness. However, Jiang Zihua took possession of all the rewards given by the government! Though Chen Xiaobei did not really care about the reward, it still made him feel annoyed.
“Okay! Okay! Okay! I will leave the room and wait outside. Actually, I have a favor to ask from you. I hope you can help me…”
With a smirk on Chen Xiaobei’s face, he figured out that Jiang Zihua chased his son out of the room without hesitation was because of he wanted to ask Chen Xiaobei to help with something.
“Let’s begin.”
Chen Xiaobei could not care less about Jiang Zihua. He then turned around and walked towards Qi Zhenxin.
“Mr. Chen, please!”
In a polite manner, Qi Zhenxin stretched his hand out to allow Chen Xiaobei to check his pulse.
“That is not necessary. If I’m not mistake, your pulse is erratic right now and the doctor could not find out the reason behind it!”
“Right! That’s right!”
Qi Zhenxin and Elder Qi nodded their head at the same time.
Surprised, they said, “Master Chen! You are a god! Earlier, we have hired quite a number of traditional doctors! They said the same thing after checking my pulse!”
“Master Chen! So, what’s with my son’s illness?” Elder Qi could not help but ask.
“According to the King of Medicine’s Journal, there is a high chance that Mr. Qi is afflicted with a curse from Diannan, Miaojian!”
“Diannan, Miaojian?! Curse?!”
Both of them were amazed.
Master Chen, you really are a god! I obtained these injuries when I was carrying out my mission in Diannan!” Qi Zhenxin said excitedly.
“But… A curse sounds really mysterious to me… Does it really exist?” asked Elder Qi doubtfully.
“Of course! It exists since the ancient times! The tribe from Diannan, Miaojian are the descendants of ancient witches. They are experts in various kind of witchcraft. Poison, voodoo, and tame head (1) are the three most powerful witchcrafts! My knowledge on all these witchcraft was acquired from my ancient medical book!”
“Do you have a way to treat it?”
“Of course! No one else on this earth can cure you if I can’t cure you!”
Chen Xiaobei was very confident in his medical skills. After that, Chen Xiaobei took out a bag of needles. With his polished skill, both of his hands landed around thirty needles on Qi Zhenxin’s body. He then channeled his True Qi to his body with the needles as a medium stimulate his nerves and pulse. Several minutes later, an entity that was as big as a red date appeared on his chest!
“That’s it!”
Though Chen Xiaobei was an expert in medicine, he could not contain his excitement as this was his first time coming across an entity that was born from a curse! Immediately, Chen Xiaobei lifted another silver needle and imbued it with his True Qi. With the needle acting as knife, he sliced the bulge on his chest.
Seeing that there was an incision on his chest, Chen Xiaobei used his needle to remove a crimson worm from the incision.
“I-Is this the legendary voodoo worm?”
Bewildered, they have never seen something like this in their entire life. The crimson worm was exuding some kind of evil aura.
“That’s right! This is a voodoo worm! Though I didn’t know much about it, I’m pretty sure this crimson worm is the reason why you failed to recover from your injuries and lacked vigor.”
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei looked for an empty bottle of alcohol and put the crimson word into the bottle – planning to do some research on the worm.
“Master Chen… Is my son cured?”
“He is completely healed! The source of his illness is removed. However, he still needs some time to be fully recovered. Well, I have solved the major problem. Even an ordinary hospital aid his recovery.”
“That is great! Thank you Master Chen for healing my son… Thank you so much…”
Both of them showed their utmost gratitude to Chen Xiaobei.
“Master Chen! I will be going to back to Xuanjian Faction to tell them that I’m going to draw line with them! From today onwards, the Qi family will serve Bei Xuan Faction! Curse my family if I betray your faction!” declared Elder Qi in a serious tone.
“No. Don’t quit Xuanjian Faction just yet. I want you to continue as an elder over there!”
“W-Why?”
“Hehe… Liu Chunyi gave me a fake shit in exchange for my pill. I’m going to make him pay sooner or later! Just stay in Xuanjian Faction for now. I believe that you can help me greatly in the future!”
Translation Note:
1. Tame head – Also known as Gong Tau, it is black magic of Southeast Asia.
Chapter 559: I Have Decided Not to Go
Finally, the thing was set in stone. Elder Qi was to return to Xuanjian Faction to work as a spy for Chen Xiaobei. On the other hand, Chen Xiaobei left the place in possession of the crimson worm. The moment he stepped out the door, someone stopped him from leaving the hospital.
“Mr. Chen! Finally, you finally left the room! I have been waiting for you here!”
The cunning fox, Jiang Zihua strode towards Chen Xiaobei with a smile on his face.
“Why did you wait for me? I don’t remember promising you anything!”
Looking nonchalant, Chen Xiaobei continued to walk towards the exit.
“Mr. Chen! You have to listen to me! I have a patient in my room right now and he is a very important person! You will be rewarded immensely if you can heal him!”
Immediately, Jiang Zihua went after Chen Xiaobei.
“Heh heh… I think you are the one that will be rewarded abundantly, right?”
“Yes! Indeed! They have promised me some reward but the bigger reward definitely goes to you! The patient is the heir of the Zhuang Family! One of the four young masters in Dragon City! The famous Zhuang Bifan! You should have heard of his name before!”
“Zhuang Bifan? I don’t know him! Doesn’t sound like a good guy to me! Just cut the crap! I’m not going to heal him!”
There was a wicked glint in his eyes. Considering that Zhuang Bifan still lied in the sickbed after so long, his life must have been rough after he messed with Chen Xiaobei.
“Mr. Chen… Considering it a good deed… I’m begging for him now…”
Seeing that Jiang Zihua was kneeling before Chen Xiaobei, one could guess that the reward promised to Jiang Zihua must be huge! However, Chen Xiaobei had no plans to change his mind. Healing an enemy was definitely one hell of a dumb thing to do!
“Director! Director! It seems like Master Yap is waking up… Doctor Wang instructed me to get you to check on him!”
Suddenly, a nurse ran to Jiang Zihua in a hurried manner.
“Master Yap? Yap Tianlin from 066 private room, right? Okay! I will head over there now!”
Jiang Zihua’s expression changed. He decided not to pester Chen Xiaobei anymore and immediately took his leave.
“Mr. Chen, I have an urgent matter that I have to attend! I’m going to make a move first! See you around!”
Looking at the cunning fox’s back, Chen Xiaobei suddenly realized something crucial.
“I can’t believe that Yap Tianlin managed to survive from masturbating the whole night! The thing that I did to him will be exposed if he regains his conscious!”
‘Well, I’m not afraid that he will seek revenge, but he saw me using my Chaos Sword Essence and withdrawing Obedience Elixir from my cell phone! These two secrets must be kept safe! No way! I have to look for a way to deal with him!’
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei followed Jiang Zihua from behind.
In room 066.
“Mr. Chen, why are you here?” asked Jiang Zihua in surprise.
