Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1150: Chapter 1149: Daughter Kidnapped

The reconstructed tendons were bound to be much stronger than his previous ones and would significantly improve Zhao Chong’s strength. This was Su Yang’s way of expressing his gratitude to him.

After forcing out all the pus, Su Yang promptly used silver needles to seal the nerves near the wound. This way, Zhao Chong wouldn’t feel any pain. Then, Su Yang used his True Qi to guide the severed tendons to slowly connect back together.

The tendons had been cut for more than seven days, and the severed ends had already atrophied. Normally, reattachment would have been impossible.

But for Su Yang, this was not an issue at all. Once he connected the torn tendons, he took out a medicinal pill from his body, crushed it, and sprinkled some of the powder over the joint.

This pill was the Marrow Cleansing Pill concocted by the Divine Physicians Alliance, designed for cleansing and transforming the marrow. As soon as the powder touched the severed tendons, they visibly began to fuse together. Moreover, the tendons were nourished by the powder, becoming even stronger. For Zhao Chong, unbeknownst to himself, his tendons had been tempered.

After healing his wrist, Su Yang proceeded in the same manner to reattach his ankle tendons.

Only a third of the Marrow Cleansing Pill had been used; Su Yang fed the remaining two-thirds to Zhao Chong. The medicine would continue to nourish his body’s tendons, allowing them to undergo a qualitative improvement.

The entire process took Su Yang less than ten minutes to completely heal Zhao Chong.

At that moment, Zhao Tianxing’s wife had finished boiling water and brought it over. Su Yang asked her to clean Zhao Chong’s wound, and then had Zhao Tianxing redress the wounds.

By this time, Zhao Chong’s breathing had stabilized, and although he was still unconscious, his complexion had become much rosier. Zhao Tianxing, though not versed in medicine, could tell that his son was indeed out of danger.

Zhao Tianxing had held little hope for Su Yang’s abilities but was astounded by his miraculous skills.

Leaving his wife to care for Zhao Chong, Zhao Tianxing accompanied Su Yang to the hall. Just as they sat down, Zhao Tianxing immediately stood, bowed with hands clasped: ”Mr. Su, thank you for saving my son. I apologize for any offenses earlier, please forgive me!”

Su Yang gestured dismissively, ”No need for thanks, Zhao Chong was injured because of Wang Hao. His business is the business of Destiny Martial Arts. I am just doing what is right.”

Hearing this, Zhao Tianxing sighed deeply and lamented, ”Ah, in the end, it’s because we are too weak. Here in Capital City, it’s so hard for us outsiders to gain a firm footing.”

”In my eyes, there is no distinction between locals and outsiders,” Su Yang said calmly. ”If they do not want us to stand firm, then I will make sure they cannot stand at all!”

Zhao Tianxing was taken aback; he had only intended to make a passing comment but did not expect such a bold statement from Su Yang. This young man’s medical skills were impressive, and he seemed very composed, but why did his words always aim to shock?

After a moment of hesitation, Zhao Tianxing spoke in a low voice, ”Mr. Su, it’s fine to say such things among ourselves, but please... never say that in front of those with intentions. If word gets out, it... that would be no small matter. You must be here in Capital City for studies; these wealthy and arrogant young masters always behave like this. You should focus on your studies, graduate, and leave this place. There’s... there’s no need to conflict with the locals!”

Su Yang gave Zhao Tianxing a look, clearly understanding his perspective. This man had been worn down by reality.

”Sometimes, it’s not a matter of whether you want to stay hidden; you cannot always keep your head down!” Su Yang said softly.

Zhao Tianxing sighed again, his son being a case in point.

Suddenly, frantic footsteps came from outside the door. Zhao Tianxing instinctively turned to look, and a man rushed in through the entrance—it was none other than his most trusted disciple.

This disciple was the last to leave Tianxing Martial Arts Hall, ordered away by Zhao Tianxing himself, and he had left less than half an hour ago. Why had he come back so soon?

Moreover, the disciple was covered in blood, one arm hanging limply as if it was broken, clearly severely injured. What on earth had happened?

”Third, you... what happened to you?” Zhao Tianxing hurriedly went to meet him.

”Master, something... something’s gone wrong...” The disciple couldn’t even make it to Zhao Tianxing before he trembled out, ”Xiao... Xiao Yun has been kidnapped...”

”What!?” Zhao Tianxing exclaimed, ”Who... who took her? What happened? What exactly has happened?”

Zhao Xiaoyun was Zhao Tianxing’s daughter, just a freshman this year and Zhao Chong’s younger sister. Zhao Tianxing had been waiting for Zhao Xiaoyun’s return this evening, ready to take them away from Capital City. How did such an event occur so suddenly?

”I was... I was just arriving at the street corner when I saw Xiao Yun being stopped by a few people and dragged into a car. I... I tried to stop them, they... they beat me up, I couldn’t stop them, Xiao Yun... Xiao Yun was also taken away...” the disciple continued in a shaky voice.

Zhao Tianxing collapsed to the floor, completely dazed. Catastrophes really do come one after another like a leaky roof facing continuous night rain. The family was already in such a state, and now this happened? His daughter had been kidnapped; what was he to do?

”Who took her?” A cold voice came from behind.

Zhao Tianxing turned around and saw it was Su Yang speaking.

The disciple replied, ”Among them... among them, there was one person, the local gang leader known as Snake King Wang Biao...”

”Wang Biao!?” Zhao Tianxing’s expression changed drastically. He knew this Wang Biao, the local thug in the area.

Before the incident with Wang Hao, Zhao Tianxing had to be very polite to Wang Biao. Wang Biao had connections and quite a few people under him. Although not powerful himself, he was followed by several strong enforcers, controlling several streets in the vicinity, indeed the local despot.

Despite running a martial arts school, Zhao Tianxing still paid the monthly protection fees without fail. At first, Zhao Tianxing, relying on his own fighting skills, had stood up to Wang Biao.

As a result, Zhao Tianxing was first beaten by Wang Biao’s henchmen, his own leg broken, and then detained for half a month on charges of causing trouble.

After his release, Zhao Tianxing became much more compliant, never daring to short the monthly protection payments.

To be honest, Zhao Tianxing felt a certain fear of Wang Biao at the bottom of his heart. And now, Wang Biao had actually kidnapped his daughter, Zhao Xiaoyun—it was like a death knell. With several martial experts by Wang Biao’s side, how was he going to rescue his daughter now?
