Peerless Medical Emperor

The old man possessed an imposing authority.

”We’ve been plotting for a long time.”

”We’re on the verge of success. So what if some young brat has temporarily thwarted our grand plan? How could he possibly stop us from moving forward?”

”Ultimately, we will succeed.”

The old man spoke slowly, his gaze profound.

”Master, what’s our next move?”

”The Yin Talismans at the Luo Family have been almost completely removed, and the dark clouds we conjured today were also dispersed.”

Luo Yunteng looked at the old man.

”What’s the rush? Rest first.”

”We’re not doing anything today.”

The old man said in a slow voice.

The Yin Talisman Master whom Luo Yunteng served as an apprentice was named Zi Chong.

He wasn’t well-known, but his power was immense. In addition to being a formidable Yin Talisman Master, Zi Chong was also an expert at the second level of the Guiyuan realm.

After speaking, Zi Chong gathered the runes laid out beside him and placed them all into a box to the side.

”Master, we’re really just going to rest?!”

Luo Yunteng’s face was a picture of disbelief.

”Yes.”

”I’m telling you to rest for a day, and you’re complaining?”

Zi Chong glared at Luo Yunteng.

”No, no.”

”I just don’t think this is the right time to be resting.”

”We should seize this opportunity to take that kid down once and for all.”

”Once I take back the Luo Family, I’ll make you our Grand Tributor. You’ll be second to none but me, above all others in the Luo Family.”

”Besides, our Luo Family is already considered a second-tier family in Jingxi. We’ll aim to become a first-tier family in the future and dominate Jingxi.”

Luo Yunteng couldn’t wait even a day.

”Even the grandest of ambitions require rest. We’ve been making too much of a scene lately.”

”Besides, have you investigated that kid?”

”His strength, whether he has any backing... you need to find out all of this, understand?”

Zi Chong looked at Luo Yunteng.

Luo Yunteng could only nod his head.

”I’ll go investigate these things right away.”

Luo Yunteng said.

Meanwhile, Chen Qingdi was pacing back and forth near Zi Chong’s residence.

He was trying to pinpoint the exact location.

The road was quiet, with four side streets leading to four different small residences.

It wasn’t too far from the Luo Family estate, only about two blocks away.

At the far end of the road, an old man was selling chestnuts by the wayside.

Seeing Chen Qingdi pacing back and forth, he called out to him.

”Young man, what are you doing, wandering back and forth like that?”

The man called out to Chen Qingdi.

Chen Qingdi gave an awkward smile and walked over to the old man.

”Sir, I’m looking for someone.”

Chen Qingdi said.

”There’s hardly anyone around here.”

”Who are you looking for?”

”I’m a regular know-it-all when it comes to Jingxi.”

”If there’s anything you need to know, just ask me. I guarantee I’ll get you the information.”

”Only, I do charge for my services.”

The old man chuckled sheepishly.

”How much do you charge?”

Chen Qingdi smiled and looked at the old man.

”Whatever you feel is right.”

The old man smiled and said.

Chen Qingdi pulled out two hundred yuan and pressed it into the old man’s hand.

”Is this enough.”

Chen Qingdi said.

”More than enough!”

”Ask whatever you want.”

”Even if I don’t know, I’ll find out for you.”

The old man said, his face beaming.

”I should know what to call you first, sir. Otherwise, it would be disrespectful,” Chen Qingdi said with a smile.

”I’m just an old man. Everyone calls me Old Qi, so you can call me that too.”

Old Qi looked at Chen Qingdi, grinning.

As an old man selling chestnuts, he didn’t make much money in a day. He only came here to sell because his home was nearby.

Yet Chen Qingdi had just handed him two hundred yuan without a second thought.

He might not even earn that much in a whole day.

”Mr. Qi, I’d like to know if anyone has moved into the neighborhood in the last few months.”

”And, do you know what a Talisman Master is?”

Chen Qingdi looked at Mr. Qi.

Mr. Qi immediately nodded.

”Talisman Masters? Aren’t they a type of Feng Shui Master? Feng Shui Masters include Yin Yang Masters, Yin Talisman Masters, Land Appraisers, House Observation Masters, and so on.”

Mr. Qi stated plainly.

Chen Qingdi was rather surprised that Mr. Qi could rattle all that off.

Chen Qingdi smiled. ”That’s right, that’s right. I didn’t expect you to know so much, Mr. Qi. Very impressive!”

”But of course. This ’know-it-all’ reputation of mine isn’t just for show. As for recent happenings around here, the Luo Family’s mansion was brimming with oppressive yin energy, and a Hundred Evils Talisman was suspended in the air above it. But then someone, I don’t know who, broke it.”

Old Qi said, speaking with casual confidence.

Chen Qingdi was even more shocked after Old Qi’s explanation.

”I didn’t expect you to be such an expert, Mr. Qi. Could it be you’re also a Feng Shui Master?”

Chen Qingdi said with a surprised look on his face.

”That’s nothing. I’ve been in Jingxi for years; I’ve seen it all. The Evil God Hall, Di Lin Hall, the Blood Dragon Association... Jingxi may look peaceful on the surface, but how much bloodshed is hidden beneath?”

Mr. Qi said.

”I really didn’t expect you to know so much. It seems I’ve found the right person this time.”

Chen Qingdi said with a smile.

”Recently, an old man and a middle-aged man did move here. They’re at the very end of this street. They don’t come out much.”

”I’ve seen quite a bit of talisman paper float out from inside on several occasions. It’s probably a Talisman Practitioner.”

Mr. Qi said.

”Alright, I understand.”

Chen Qingdi said.

With that, Chen Qingdi started walking ahead.

Seeing Chen Qingdi walk forward, Mr. Qi seemed to have guessed something.

He quickly called out to Chen Qingdi.

”Young man, what are you going to do?”

Mr. Qi asked.

”I’m going to find that Feng Shui Master.”

Chen Qingdi said.

”The yin energy in there is overpowering. You need to be careful.”

Mr. Qi reminded him.

Chen Qingdi was surprised that the old man was so concerned about him, and he immediately nodded.

”Mr. Qi, I advise you to leave quickly too.”

”Pack up your stall and go home early today.”

Chen Qingdi said after glancing at Mr. Qi.

”Alright. I know good advice when I hear it.”

Mr. Qi nodded and, true to his word, began pushing his small cart away.

Chen Qingdi didn’t linger either and headed straight for the end of the narrow street.

It was the small residence at the very end of the street. As soon as he arrived, Chen Qingdi noticed that something was off about this place.

A dense yin energy lingered in the air.

’It seems this Yin Talisman Master has been cultivating a great deal of yin energy here.’

’He’s trying to use this yin energy to make himself more powerful.’

’But this kind of evil cultivation method is exactly what I despise most.’

Chen Qingdi gently knocked on the door.

Inside, Zi Chong and Luo Yunteng, who had just been sitting, were startled by the sound of knocking at the door.
