Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Xiaobei! What are you thinking about?” Elder Luo was panicking. “We have to save him! Mount Shu Faction is really powerful; if their young master dies in my house, we are going to have a lot of problems in the future!”
“You’re right! We need to save him now! Lead the way!” Chen Xiaobei nodded.
The previous conflict had not even been resolved yet. He could not possibly bring Elder Luo more problems.
In the guest hall stood eight stern-looking middle-aged men.
From the splendour of their clothing, it was obvious that seven of them were slightly lower in rank than the man with silver-grey hair.
Using his Netherspirit Battlescouter, Chen Xiaobei discovered that the seven men’s combat powers were about 100,000 to 103,000. They were all Celestial cultivation elites.
The silver haired man, however, had reached 230,000 combat power, the middle phase of Ethereal Cultivation. That was the same was Yin Wuqiu!
“Allow me to introduce you!” Elder Luo pointed at the silver hair man, “This is the Third Elder, Qi Congying!”
“How are you Elder Qi?” Chen Xiaobei nodded politely in his direction. He was a guest at the Luo house. It was better to keep a low profile, to avoid bringing anymore trouble to Elder Luo.
“Elder Luo, who is this?” Qi Congying asked.
“Oh! This is Chen Xiaobei! It’s the person I sent for to come and help tend to young master Xu!” Elder Luo replied.
“Him?” Qi Congying and the other seven men questioned.
“Elder Luo! Are you kidding?” Qi Congruo’s face darkened. “Our young master is on his deathbed, and instead of tending to him yourself, you sought an inexperienced schoolboy? Are you trying to kill our young master?”
Chen Xiaobei felt a bout of anger stir inside him. Qi Congying not only doubted his medical skills, he even questioned Elder Luo’s motives with prejudice and suspiciaon! How ridiculous!
A frown hung over Elder Luo’s lips. “You’ve misunderstood me, Elder Qi… it’s not that I am unwilling to do it myself, but because I’m not confident enough. Only if Xiaobei is involved, can we ensure that the young master Xu could continue to live on!”
“Nonsense!” Qi Congying refused to believe the old man. “If even you are not confident enough to do it, what makes you think this inexperienced bugger can succeed? Even a child wouldn’t fall for this stupid trick!”
Elder Luo was too stunned to talk back.
Naturally, what Qi Congying said was right in some ways, But Chen Xiaobei wasn’t a person that could be measured by normal standards. For a moment, Elder Luo found himself at a lost for words.
“What is it now?” Qi Congying barked, “Luo Xun, I order you to tend to the patient now! If anything happens to our young master, you will be buried today!’
Old Cao felt very helpless.
He did not have the confidence to do it himself. But the others refused to put their faith in Chen Xiaobei’s skills as a medical doctor. If he tries to save the young master himself, it might not end well!
“Elder Qi, how old are you?” Chen Xiaobei suddenly spoke up.
“That’s none of your business.” Qi Congying scowled. Step aside! You are in no position to talk!”
Chen Xiaobei smiled. “Heh! haven’t you heard? You can offend anyone you like but you should never offend your doctor! You didn’t know? It’s common sense! I’m pretty sure that you have lived long enough but it seems like you have wasted your entire life away.”
“What?!” Qi Congying’s shouted. “You son of a bitch! How could you humiliate me in front all these people? Are you tired of living already?”
Qi Congying was the Third Elder of Mount Shu Faction. Everybody was obliged to respect him no matter what.
And then came an insolent Chen Xiaobei, so carelessly tearing his face down before his men. How infuriating!
The seven men from Mount Shu Faction also wore angry expressions on their faces, ready to pounce on Chen Xiaobei.
Elder Luo tugged at Chen Xiaobei’s sleeve, hoping that he would apologize. The person he had offended was not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry.
But instead of backing down, Chen Xiaobei soldiered on.
“Yeah! I’m tired of living! Elder Luo and I won’t be healing anyone today! If you have the balls, then kill us! If you don’t dare to kill us, then that means you have no balls!”
“I Qi Congying has no balls? No balls? You are the first person to ever speak to me like that! I will show you today whether Qi Congying has any balls!”
Right after he finished his last sentence, a terrifying aura began to radiate out from every single pore that he had. Multiplying that was a Fire Ethereal Force that was slowly accumulating on his finger. Seemingly, he wanted to kill Chen Xiaobei with a single hit.
For an Ethereal Cultivation elite, killing someone with Chen Xiaobei’s cultivation was like squishing an ant with a finger.
“Crap!” Elder Luo had turned as pale as a ghost.
The other seven disciples of Mount Shu Faction shot Chen Xiaobei mocking glances, as if they were looking at the world’s biggest idiot.
Even then, Chen Xiaobei was calm as the lake on a windless day. “Before you make a move, let me remind you that your young master only has.. about 10 minutes left in him. After you kill Elder Luo and me, he will follow us to the grave! It’s entirely up to you!”
Qi Congying froze.
With his soaring cultivation, he was assigned solely to protect his young master.
Should his young master die, he would have to bear the dire consequences. His faction would see to it that he was punished… in an ‘appropriate’ manner.
The young master was the faction leader’s son. If the loss of his son was pinned on Qi Congying, then the rest of Qi Congying’s life will be filled with shame and misery.
When the frightful thoughts crossed his mind, the Ethereal Force on Qi Congying’s fingers slowly dissipated.
He knew that his young master already had one foot in the grave. There was no time and no point for him to kill these two, and then find a new doctor.
“Elder Luo!” Qi Congying made up his mind. “I was too anxious about saving my young master that I forgot my manners. Please help save him!”
“Don’t beg me!” Elder Luo shook his head. “If you want to save your young master, you should be begging Xiaobei!”
“I…” Qi Congying would have rather died than do that.
But the patient was dying, and he would have no option but to swallow his pride and give it a try.
“Mr. Chen! Forgive me for my offences! Please help!” Qi Congying said reluctantly.
“Oh? You’re not killing me now huh?” Chen Xiaobei smiled. “If you admit that you don’t have any balls, I will make sure that your young master survives!”
