The Beautiful CEO's Personal Mad Doctor

Chapter 457: Chapter 457: Why Should I Help You?

Shen Youchu trembled with excitement, no longer doubting the power of the Broken Blade. She shouted, ”Brother, you’re incredible! What’s the pathetic Yang Family Spear? Before the Broken Blade, it’s as fragile as tofu!”

Uncle Fu stumbled back several steps, his face filled with dread as he stared at the Broken Blade in Cheng Yuan’s hand. ”What... what kind of blade is that?”

”You want to know? Go ask King Yama!”

Cheng Yuan pressed his advantage, lunging forward fiercely!

Uncle Fu used the headless spear as a staff, but it was useless. Before the Broken Blade, the staff was no match at all!

SHINK! SHINK! SHINK!

A few slashes later, the long staff had been whittled down to the length of nunchucks, posing no threat to Cheng Yuan whatsoever!

STAB!

Cheng Yuan viciously plunged the blade into Uncle Fu’s stomach and gave it two hard twists!

”You... you...”

Uncle Fu couldn’t believe it. He had actually been stabbed by a mere Martial King!

SHLICK!

Cheng Yuan pulled out the Broken Blade, kicked Uncle Fu to the ground, and walked expressionlessly toward Yang Haotian. ”The old man is taken care of. Will you end it yourself, or shall I do it for you?”

As he spoke, Cheng Yuan gestured with the Broken Blade, which was dripping fresh blood.

Yang Haotian was scared out of his wits!

Uncle Fu was his greatest trump card, his ultimate protection. With Uncle Fu dead, he had no idea what to do!

”You... don’t you dare! I’m a direct descendant of the Jinling Yang Family’s second generation! If you touch me, the Jinling Yang Family will annihilate your entire clan down to the ninth degree!”

Cheng Yuan grinned. ”The Jinling Yang Family is that powerful, huh? Then I’ll just have to silence all of you. That way, word of your death will never get back to the Yang Family.”

Yang Haotian yelled, ”Before I came, I reported my itinerary to the Yang Family’s Elder Council! If they don’t hear from me in two days, the Elders will come personally and wipe out everyone at Yuanxi Pharmaceutical!”

Of course, Cheng Yuan didn’t believe Yang Haotian’s nonsense. ”Yang Haotian, you’re ranked ninth. Your brothers and sisters are all exceptionally talented in the Martial Dao, and you’ve always been completely overshadowed. This Spiritual Spring is your only chance to gain any real standing in the Yang Family. I refuse to believe you’d leak news about it. I already looked into it. You never reported your whereabouts to the Yang Family!”

Yang Haotian’s face fell. ’He couldn’t believe Cheng Yuan was so devious as to investigate him beforehand!’

”Quick! Call the family! Tell them I’m in Yuanxi!”

”Yes, sir!”

The bodyguards scrambled to pull out their phones and make the call.

Cheng Yuan had anticipated this. With a flick of his wrist, he sent a spray of Silver Needles flying!

THWIP! THWIP! THWIP! THWIP! THWIP!

The needles pierced the bodyguards’ wrists, severing their tendons. Their hands went limp, and their phones clattered to the ground!

Cheng Yuan sauntered forward, stomping on one phone after another. Soon, all the phones were smashed to pieces!

Cheng Yuan looked at Yang Haotian with a smirk. ”A moment ago, I wasn’t sure if you’d actually reported your location to the Yang Family. But now, I’m positive. For being so ’cooperative,’ I’ll let you choose a quick death.”

”MOTHERFUCKER! You tricked me? You really think you can kill me? My Yang Family is a Hundred-Year-Old Gate Valve! As the ninth-in-line heir of the second generation, you think I don’t have any aces up my sleeve? It’s time to go all out! What are you waiting for?”

With their uninjured hands, the bodyguards pulled small pills from their jackets and shoved them into their mouths!

Cheng Yuan’s expression darkened.

”Bursting Pills? You have them too?”

”The Jinling Yang Family has plenty of things like Bursting Pills. You’re dead, kid!”

Cheng Yuan laughed. ”You can’t possibly think this group of losers can beat me just because they took a Bursting Pill, can you?”

A sinister voice echoed from behind Cheng Yuan. ”Just these wastes? Of course not. But what if you add me to the mix?”

Cheng Yuan spun around to see Uncle Fu, despite the blade wound in his abdomen, slowly rising to his feet. His aura was skyrocketing!

Cheng Yuan’s face grew serious. Uncle Fu was at the Martial Emperor Peak. After taking a Bursting Pill, he could unleash power comparable to a Martial Saint!

Even if it was only comparable to a First Grade Martial Saint, it was far beyond what Cheng Yuan could handle!

And what about his own Bursting Pills?

Cheng Yuan had taken so many that they had little to no effect on him anymore. Even if he swallowed a handful, he couldn’t push his combat strength to the Martial Saint realm. He would be no match for Uncle Fu!

On top of that, Uncle Fu had more than a dozen bodyguards to help him!

However, Cheng Yuan wasn’t the least bit panicked. He said in a low voice, ”Old man, you only have an hour. I refuse to believe you can break through my Array in that time. Once the Medicinal Power wears off, you’ll all be dead!”

As he spoke, Cheng Yuan activated his Double Pupil, pushing the Array to its full power. He used its energy to form a solid barrier around himself and Shen Youchu!

A savage grin spread across Uncle Fu’s face. ”You’re right, kid. With our current strength, we can’t break your Array within an hour! But don’t get ahead of yourself. An hour is more than enough time for Master Jiu to get far, far away! As long as he makes it back to Jinling, you and everyone you care about are dead!”

Yang Haotian’s eyes reddened. Uncle Fu had been by his side for as long as he could remember. He was family!

”Uncle Fu, don’t worry. I’ll kill him with my own two hands! I’ll get revenge for you!”

With that, Yang Haotian turned and fled!

He was now filled with a burning hatred for Cheng Yuan!

Even if it meant losing his chance to gain power in the Yang Family, he would see Cheng Yuan dead!

Shen Youchu grew anxious. ”Brother, we can’t let him get away! If he brings back reinforcements, we’ll be in danger!”

Uncle Fu and the bodyguards who had taken the Bursting Pills sneered at the two inside the Array.

”You want to stop Master Jiu from leaving? Fine! Come on out of the Array and try!”

Cheng Yuan’s expression was grim. He wasn’t afraid of the Jinling Yang Family personally—Villa No. 1 had its Mountain Protection Array, and not even a Martial Saint could break through it.

But what about the Hu and Zhu Families?

What about the people at Yuanxi Pharmaceutical?

What about the people at Yuanxi Auction House?

’I can’t let Yang Haotian get back to Jinling!’

Cheng Yuan suddenly shouted in the direction Yang Haotian had fled, ”Reporter Fu! Stall him for me! Just for fifteen minutes! I’ll owe you a favor!”

Fu Qingzhu, hidden in the shadows, froze. The entire time she’d been near Cheng Yuan, she had been using the secret aura-concealing Cultivation Technique of Daqingyi.

’I can’t believe he saw through it!’

Since she was exposed, Fu Qingzhu stopped hiding. ”When did you figure me out?”

”The first time you entered the Mountain Protection Array, your aura was marked. I recognized you the moment I saw you.”

”In that case, why didn’t you kill me? My mission was to kill you!”

”Because you carry no Karmic Obstacles. Everyone you’ve killed deserved to die!”

”We’re strangers, and you’re my target. Why should I help you?”

”I’ll hire you.”

”What’s the pay?”

”Ten percent of Yuanxi Pharmaceutical.”

”Deal.”

Fu Qingzhu didn’t know why she had agreed to Cheng Yuan’s offer. She could only comfort herself with a silent thought.

’This is just a transaction.’
