The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 998: Chapter 998: Under the Eaves

”How is he?” Xu Shoujiang asked, seeing Lin Tian covered in blood, it was hard to tell if he was alive or dead.

”The situation is very bad, he needs immediate treatment.” Miaoqiu held Lin Tian, resting his head against her chest, and tried to transfer Spiritual Qi to him through her palm, hoping to alleviate some of his injuries, but it was all in vain, this guy was too badly hurt.

”You take him back first, saving him is the priority.”

”Alright.”

After Miaoqiu took him away, Mr. Wang and the others continued their escape along the not-so-wide road.

The forces of the Xu and Wang families quickly drew within ten meters of each other, both sides maintained extremely high vigilance, fearing a sneak attack from the other.

The outcome was harmonious, neither side involved with the other, no conflict occurred.

Once past the Xu family, Mr. Wang and the others once again sped forward.

”Big brother, letting that kid Lin Tian go like this, I really can’t bear it!” said a Golden Core expert.

This remark resonated with everyone, who could bear it?

Mr. Wang glanced ahead and said lightly, ”That kid caused my Wang Family so much harm, do you think I’d let him go? Before encountering the Xu Family, I had already prepared, although I let him live, I sprinkled a bottle of ’Bone-Softening’ on his wound.”

People from the Wang Family were taken aback and asked, ”What is Bone-Softening?”

Though the name sounded nice, it was obviously not something good.

Mr. Wang seemed to remember something and laughed, ”This is a medicine from the Tang Family a hundred years ago, but it’s not very famous, and it seems that now it’s all but lost because no one inquired about it.”

Everyone became even more curious, looking at Mr. Wang for more.

”The Bone-Softening is actually a powder made by blending hundreds of herbs, it spreads throughout the body with the blood circulation and has the effect of softening bones, though it takes some time. Lin Tian might not feel anything now, but about a month later, he’ll feel weak all over, and eventually, his bones will soften like a puddle of mud, leading to his end.”

The Tang Family’s poisons are strange and varied, this was just one strange among many, so people weren’t that curious anymore after hearing it.

”But, this poison comes from the Tang Family, they should have an antidote, right?”

Mr. Wang shook his head with a smile, ”This medicine was left to me by my master, it’s almost lost within the Tang Family. The antidote is only in my hands, and when it’s discovered, even if the Tang Family wanted to concoct one, there wouldn’t be enough time.”

”Then, he’ll have to come to us and compromise.”

”That’s right, even if that kid’s head is made of copper and his bones of iron, this time he’ll meet his end!”

Everyone’s previously low spirits rose again, that kid’s life was in the hands of the Wang Family, he would have to obey whatever they wanted him to do, wouldn’t he?

Just then, someone shouted, ”Ancestor, look quickly, why are there suddenly so many people in front of us?”

This statement gripped everyone’s heart, and they looked up to see, about fifty meters ahead, several old men with white hair and beards standing in the middle of the road, it almost seemed like a bunch of bandits announcing ’This tree was planted by me, this road was built by me, if you want to pass, leave your toll.’

Wang Manzi frowned immediately, ”The Xu Family people shouldn’t deceive us, right?”

”...”

This question didn’t need an answer because that group soon surrounded them.

”Mr. Wang, won’t you get off and have a chat with your old friend?”

”Hahaha, Wang, thirty years ago you owed me a pot of shao daozi, isn’t it time to repay it?”

Hearing this familiar voice, Mr. Wang wasn’t the least bit happy, murmuring, ”I really didn’t expect it would be these guys.”

”Ancestor, should we just drive through?” someone asked.

Mr. Wang frowned and shook his head, ”It’s useless, stop the car.”

Screech~

Once the car came to a stop, Mr. Wang slowly got out of the car, glancing at the six people in front, noticing some changes on their faces.

”It turns out to be the seven heroes of the Yue Family. Why is there one less? Where’s Yue? He hasn’t gone mad during seclusion, has he?” Mr. Wang smiled unhurriedly.

The Wang and Yue families have been good friends since ancient times, and they know each other very well.

The seven heroes of the Yue Family, individually aren’t much, but when the seven join forces to deploy the Seven Ghosts Extinguishing Immortal Array, even Mr. Wang finds it quite troublesome. The name of this array seems to target him a bit.

”Big brother is at a critical phase of seclusion, we brothers have nothing much to do, but we heard recently that a kid has come up, offering many lost elixir formulas, perhaps allowing us old folks to refine our skills a bit more,” Yue the Second replied in a booming voice, his moves were powerful, if they engaged in a fight, he would definitely take the lead, with two on the side attack, two harassing, and two assassinating.

Yue the Third, an alcoholic, swung his jug of wine and laughed, ”I heard that kid is in your hands, right? To maintain the relationship between our two families, you give him to us, we let you go, and I’ll treat you to shao daozi afterwards, all you can drink!”

Mr. Wang shook his head with a smile, ”Lin Tian has already been taken by the Xu Family.”

”Mr. Wang, are you fooling me? At least come up with a believable excuse,” Yue the Second heckled.

”Believe it or not, if you want to search, go ahead.” Mr. Wang turned to give way.

Yue the Second signaled with his eyes, and the six moved forward together. If one is alone and gives Mr. Wang a chance, it would be a disaster.

Just then, the group from the Tang Family, who had been pursuing, also arrived, with over fifty people, not many Golden Core experts among them, but each carried deadly poisons, deterring anyone from getting close.

The six from the Yue Family stopped, and the three parties watched each other, the killing atmosphere grew tense.

”Mr. Wang, you know our intentions, either hand him over or die!”

The speaker was a middle-aged man in his fifties, with only the strength of a high-level Martial Artist, in Mr. Wang’s eyes, such a character was akin to a buffoon.

But this buffoon was boasting loudly, and Mr. Wang had no way around it.

He scanned around and saw that the Tang Family didn’t have a single Golden Core expert, almost exploding with anger.

What does this mean, Tang Family? Do you look down on us or the Wang Family? That’s too arrogant, isn’t it?

The anger, he could only keep it in his heart.

More than fifty people didn’t need high prowess, just continually poisoning with their bizarre toxins could prevent anybody from gaining an advantage.

”He is not with me, he’s already been taken by the Xu Family!” Mr. Wang explained again, feeling a bit impatient, but what could he do?

”The Xu Family? We just met with them, who are you trying to fool?”

Mr. Wang shot a venomous glare at that person, ”If you don’t believe, search.”

The Tang Family didn’t hold back; that middle-aged man waved his hand, ”Search!”
