What If I Can't Die?-Novel

45 A Shrew’s Talent

Song Wan smiled bitterly, “Whether or not Third Brother can survive is a problem. After all, the enemy wants to kill him the most.”

“It’s fine if you reap what you sow, but how could you implicate your own family?”

Song Shi sneered and strode over to open the door.

“Elder Qin is resting. What are you doing?” Song Jia hurriedly asked.

“Don’t interfere in my business.”

Song Shi had no interest in paying attention to this arrogant woman who was immediately discouraged when she met an enemy. He pushed open the door and walked in.

Song Jia was unconvinced and wheedled to her father, “Father, look at him. Isn’t he the only male left in the family? Why is he so arrogant?”

“Don’t say anymore. Seventh Brother is now valued by the Demon Slayers Division. They even asked him to participate in their quests. He might have a good future ahead of him.”

Song Wan shook his head.

“Tsk, he’s just a profligate son. How can he be valued? I’m a mid-stage Postnatal expert, but the Demon Slayer Division didn’t even take a second look at me. He’s most likely bragging only.”

Song Jia was influenced by her mother and had a mean personality. She looked down on Song Shi from the bottom of her heart.

“I saw with my own eyes that the people from the Demon Slayers Division were quite polite to him.”

Song Wan’s words made Song Jia frown, “Are you senile? They just brought him in. Why are they being polite to him? Is it because he’s handsome?”

“What is it with your personality? Why are you still so unruly after learning martial arts for ten years at Psychic Mountain!”

Song Wan shook his head helplessly. Having lived for 60 years, he was very experienced and couldn’t be bothered to reason with his daughter. He flicked his sleeves and left.

“Is there a problem with what I said? How can he be valued by the Demon Slayers? He’s not even as capable as me. When he encountered something, he hid in a brothel. I didn’t even see him come back to help.”

Song Jia muttered and followed him indignantly. She said with a sharp tongue, “He’s still here to disturb Elder Qin’s recuperation. He’s not mature at all. Do you still expect him to shoulder this family?”

Big Smart had a strange expression when he heard this.

Miss Jia still had the same impression of his young master as before. She felt that the young master was still just a playboy who was waiting to die. When in fact, he was not as simple as he seemed.

He touched his chest. He was still bearing a hole in his clothes at his chest area and had an additional palm print there as well. He had just pulled a piece of cloth over to cover it.

In the room, the strong smell of medicine permeated the air. An old man with a white cloth on his chest was lying on the bed. His face was pale and his brows were tightly furrowed. He was unconscious and his aura was weak.

Song Shi walked over and injected a wisp of Nine Yang True Energy. After checking, he realized that the old man’s Essence Qi was severely depleted and he had more than ten injuries all over.

Most importantly, there was a cold and unholy aura lingering in his body, making the entire room a little cold.

If not for the Connate Qi in the other party’s body, any other old man like him would have died long ago.

The moment his Nine Yang True Energy entered Elder Qin’s meridians, there was a faint scream. It was like darkness meeting the sun. Strands of black gas were forced out, emitting a sizzling sound.

Elder Qin’s face flushed red and he instinctively spat out a mouthful of black blood.

“Stop! What are you doing!”

Song Jia saw that Elder Qin was covered in black smoke from Song Shi’s touch and was still vomiting blood. She said angrily, “You killed Elder Qin. Who will protect my Song family?”

“Can’t you tell that I’m healing him? Didn’t you bring your brain to the mountain when you went to learn martial arts?”

Song Shi frowned.

“How dare you scold me!”

Song Jia flew into a rage out of humiliation and directly latched on to how she was scolded. She didn’t care about the outcome of Song Shi’s actions which caused Elder Qin’s face to clearly turn red.

Song Shi could not be bothered with this stupid woman. He turned around and said, “Big Smart, feed Elder Qin the medicine.”

“Yes!”

Big Smart took out the medicine bottle and reached out to carefully open it, afraid that it would hurt the effect of the precious medicine.

A hand suddenly grabbed over and snatched the bottle away. “You still want to give Elder Qin medicine? Is the medicine prescribed by the doctor of the Demon Slayers Division inferior to trash like you?”

“Miss Jia, you!”

Big Smart was also a little angry. He was afraid that he would damage this pill, but he did not expect this woman to snatch it away.

Otherwise, if he had been prepared, the bottle would not have been taken away.

PIAK

A slap landed on Song Jia’s face, making her dizzy. Her hair became disheveled and she fell to the ground.

Song Shi’s hand blurred as he snatched the medicine bottle away. He stared coldly at the woman who was in disbelief and stunned from the slap, “Have you lost your brain from practicing martial arts? Why do you still think so highly of yourself? This is really as expected of the offspring of the old witch.”

With a face full of disdain, he turned around and took out the pill. He stuffed it into Elder Qin’s mouth and dissolved the pill with his Genuine Qi. Under the effects of the pill, Elder Qin’s expression continued to improve.

Song Jia, who was behind him, saw that not only was she scolded and beaten, but she was also ignored. Her inner shrew instantly erupted. She bared her fangs and brandished her claws as she pounced on Song Shi. “Ah! You little b*stard, how dare you hit me!”

Song Shi slapped this unreasonable shrew again.

PIAK

Song Jia, who was well trained in martial arts skills, was actually slapped again. She was directly sent flying and her face became covered in dust.

A palm print appeared on her beautiful face and swelled up immediately.

Song Wan’s eyelids twitched. He could see that this profligate son of his was different from before. Song Jia, who had a solid foundation in martial arts, had actually been slapped by him twice in a row!

He roughly understood why the Demon Slayers Division valued this son.

This son of the Song family who was protected by him was actually a hidden expert!

“Big Smart, you have to hold it steady next time. What’s the use of having your things snatched away by such a shrew?” Song Shi looked at Big Smart expressionlessly as a murderous aura enveloped him.

Big Smart’s expression changed drastically and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He hurriedly bowed in a low voice, “I’ll definitely be better next time.”

When Song Bei saw that her brother was a little fierce, she shrank back in fear and went to brew the medicine obediently.

...

“Ahhh! Song Shi, you b*stard son of a b*tch. How dare you hit me? If I don’t teach you a lesson today, do you really think you’re the sh*t?”

Song Jia heaved out. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She then rushed over again.

“That’s enough. How long are you going to keep this up?”

Song Wan couldn’t stand it anymore. Why was this woman so much like her mother? Just like her, she would cause trouble whenever something that doesn’t go her way happened. Did she really think that things were still the same as before?

“Father, how dare you criticize me!”

Song Jia’s eyes widened, and her hand trembled as she pointed at Song Wan, “Mother just died and you’re already siding with this bastard?”

Hearing this, Song Wan was so angry that his chest heaved violently and his face darkened.

Big Smart grabbed her and said coldly, “Miss Jia, your current ability is really insufficient. If you still mess around now, you’ll only be at a disadvantage.”

With that, he dragged the woman out.

“This is ridiculous.”

Song Shi was also in disbelief at her audacity. Why didn’t the Gu worms and Black Venom kill this woman?

...

Ignoring the other party, he said to Song Wan, “Who attacked the government office tonight and knocked Elder Qin unconscious?”

The anger on Song Wan’s face immediately turned into fear. His lips trembled as he said, “It… It was a strange black colored baby. It was scarily fierce. It actually bit several people to death.”

“I understand. You guys continue to stay here.”

Song Shi nodded and left.

“Shi’er, be careful.”

With Song Wan’s reminder, Song Shi went outside. Chen Ming was still waiting for him.

“Looks like your family matters are a little complicated. They’re still making a fuss at this time.”

Chen Ming muttered and asked, “Is the matter settled?”

“It’s over. Where to next?”

“New Moon Brothel.”

“New Moon Brothel?”

Song Shi’s expression changed slightly. Why were they going to this place for an operation?
