Peerless Medical Emperor

The Zheng Family’s experts immediately prepared to strike.

But just then, a powerful aura washed over them.

A figure approached from outside the courtyard. With just a few bounds, he landed before Chen Qingdi and Zheng Shifang.

”I’d like to see any of you try!”

An incomparably cold voice rang out.

A middle-aged man in his forties, dressed in a Daoist robe, was then seen striding slowly to Su Wen’s side.

”You’ve suffered,”

the middle-aged man said to Su Wen.

”Greetings, Master!”

Su Wen was clearly a good deal older than the middle-aged man, yet he bowed hurriedly the moment the man appeared.

”Rise.”

”To think this whole affair would be exposed by a mere boy.”

”Chen Qingdi, I presume? Do you have any idea who I am?”

The middle-aged man in the Daoist robe fixed his icy gaze on Chen Qingdi.

But Chen Qingdi remained perfectly calm, showing no signs of panic.

”And who might you be?”

”How dare you interfere with our Zheng Family.”

”The Zheng Family has been established in Jingxi for hundreds of years. We won’t be toppled by petty villains like you.”

”I can’t believe you’d stoop to such despicable means to harm my family and me,”

Zheng Shifang said, his face flushed with anger.

”This is simply the way of the world. Families vie with one another for power. Who doesn’t want a better life? Who doesn’t want to be stronger?”

”Our Blood Dragon Association isn’t just interested in the Zheng Family. We have our eyes on many second and third-rate families, and some are already under our control. Are you willing to join the Blood Dragon Association and submit to our rule?”

The man glanced dispassionately at Zheng Shifang.

”Impossible!”

”Does your Blood Dragon Association really think it can hold sway over everything?”

Zheng Shifang said grimly.

”Then you can give up on your son’s life. He’s been afflicted with the Blood Dragon Drill poison from our Blood Dragon Association. He won’t last a week.”

”I imagine he’s on his last breath right now.”

The man was incredibly arrogant. Judging by his posture, he seemed absolutely determined to take down the Zheng Family.

”I recall we paid you a visit decades ago, inviting you to join us. You refused. That is why we have no choice but to use this method to forcibly seize control of the Zheng Family,”

the man said coldly.

”We’ve been chatting for a while. You haven’t told us your name,”

Chen Qingdi said, looking at the man.

”This is my master, Master Mudeng, Left Guardian of the True Dragon Association! His cultivation has long surpassed the Guiyuan Realm! If you want to live, you’d better get on your knees and kowtow to my master!”

Su Wen crowed arrogantly.

Seeing Su Wen’s smug expression, Zheng Shifang’s brow furrowed.

Master Mudeng’s power was immense; dealing with him would not be easy.

Although Patriarch Zheng had many experts in his household, they were all at a loss.

The family’s strongest expert, a Tributor at the Master realm, was not at the Zheng estate. He was out traveling.

’If Master Mudeng truly decides to go on a killing spree, what can we possibly do?’

In truth, Patriarch Zheng was deeply worried.

But when he glanced at Chen Qingdi, he saw that the young man was perfectly composed, showing no hint of alarm.

”I suggest you give up your ambitions for the Zheng Family.”

”The Blood Dragon Association truly stops at nothing. By doing this, you are courting your own doom. Do you understand?”

Chen Qingdi stated coldly.

”What are you talking about, brat? You’ve got a lot of nerve.”

”You see my master and you don’t even kneel? Do you have a death wish?”

Su Wen said with a sneer.

”Death? Of course, everyone fears it.”

”But for you to kill me with your level of strength... that seems a bit far-fetched,”

Chen Qingdi said coolly.

”Is that so?”

Master Mudeng’s expression turned frigid.

”Then I shall let you witness my true power,”

Master Mudeng said coldly.

”Fine by me.”

Chen Qingdi was utterly fearless.

Master Mudeng moved. His speed was incredible, and he appeared before Chen Qingdi in an instant.

He thrust a palm toward Chen Qingdi.

Chen Qingdi swiftly dodged to the side, evading the immensely powerful blow.

That Chen Qingdi had actually dodged was far beyond the man’s expectations.

”I’m surprised. You’re quick.”

”You’re no match for me. Why don’t you just surrender!”

Master Mudeng said arrogantly.

”Just because you say so? And who are you to decide that?”

Chen Qingdi looked at him with disdain.

”Fine! Since you refuse to repent, I’ll send you to see Marx!”

As he spoke, Master Mudeng blurred into an afterimage and lunged at Chen Qingdi.

”Quick, stop him! Don’t let them touch Divine Physician Chen!”

Patriarch Zheng shouted.

The Zheng Family’s experts charged out in unison, trying to block Master Mudeng.

But against his overwhelming power, they were instantly sent flying.

They were no match for Master Mudeng at all.

Master Mudeng’s strength was simply too overwhelming.

But just as everyone thought Chen Qingdi was done for, he gently pushed a palm forward.

The palm strike didn’t look particularly powerful, but when it landed, Master Mudeng was sent flying dozens of meters.

Master Mudeng staggered to his feet and spat out a mouthful of blood. His aura had weakened considerably.

Seeing this, Su Wen quickly ran to Master Mudeng’s side.

”This kid... he’s too strong. We have to escape,”

Master Mudeng said.

With that, Master Mudeng grabbed Su Wen and disappeared from sight in a few quick bounds.

Chen Qingdi could have caught them if he had given chase, but he chose not to.

Seeing Master Mudeng and Su Wen finally gone, the Zheng Family experts breathed a collective sigh of relief. If a real battle had broken out, there was no telling what the outcome would have been.

”The enemy is finally gone. Quick, go check on Young Master Zheng,”

Chen Qingdi reminded them.

”Right, right! How could I have forgotten!”

Patriarch Zheng remembered his son had only just regained consciousness and was still recuperating.

He immediately trotted toward the room where his son was resting.

Arriving at Young Master Zheng’s room, he pushed open the door to find his son already out of bed and moving about with some simple exercises.

This made Patriarch Zheng overjoyed.

Chen Qingdi was also quite satisfied when he saw this.

”It seems Young Master Zheng is recovering well.”

”I’ll perform the Sixteen Immortal Needles on him again tomorrow. After that, he should be fine as long as he gets plenty of rest,”

Chen Qingdi said.

If not for Chen Qingdi, the Zheng Family would have likely fallen into catastrophe.

This, naturally, made Patriarch Zheng immensely grateful.
