Peerless Medical Emperor

They stepped into the outer courtyard. A massive, circular stone platform stood in the center—the perfect place for a duel.

Chen Qingdi stood in the very center of the stone platform and beckoned to He Gu.

He Gu’s eyes were filled with disdain. As a seventh-level Master, he didn’t take Chen Qingdi seriously in the slightest.

In his eyes, he could crush Chen Qingdi with ease.

Chen Qingdi simply stood there, unmoving, which made He Gu feel like he was being looked down upon.

”Are you just going to stand there, kid?”

”Come on and attack.”

He Gu watched Chen Qingdi with a cold stare.

”You can’t defeat me, even if I stand right here and don’t move.”

Chen Qingdi declared, his face a mask of arrogance.

He Gu’s gaze grew even colder.

”I can’t stand posers like you.”

”You have no skill, yet you’re so damn arrogant,”

He Gu said frigidly.

”So, Tributor He, don’t hold back with this kid. Use your finishing move.”

”It doesn’t matter if you kill him.”

Wu Qiang added from the side.

After speaking, Wu Qiang glared viciously at Chen Qingdi.

’I really don’t understand why Dad thinks so highly of Chen Qingdi. To even involve him in a family secret like searching for the Hundred Fist Atlas...’ In his heart, he was actually very jealous.

”Wu Qiang, your bloodlust is too strong.”

”Mr. Chen has been a great benefactor to our Wu Family, yet you fail to appreciate such an important figure.”

”Besides, it was Mr. Chen who helped me reclaim the Wu Family’s Yi Star. Did you not know that?”

”And now you’re telling He Gu to kill Mr. Chen? You are far too petty,”

Wu Jinfeng said.

But how could Wu Qiang possibly listen to Wu Jinfeng’s words at a time like this? His face was still a mask of mockery, and he paid Chen Qingdi no mind.

”He Gu, kill him!”

Wu Qiang shouted, his voice even louder than before.

In fact, a large group of men had already surrounded the courtyard.

It looked as if Wu Qiang had everything under control, but Wu Jinfeng didn’t seem concerned by him in the least.

He Gu nodded. Then, with a WHOOSH, his shadow-like figure rushed toward Chen Qingdi.

He was easily ten times faster than Usain Bolt.

But Chen Qingdi remained where he stood, completely motionless.

He Gu was genuinely confused. ’What on earth is Chen Qingdi thinking?’

’Death is staring him in the face, yet he isn’t the least bit afraid?’

He threw a leaping punch, and just as his fist was about to connect with Chen Qingdi’s body...

...but Chen Qingdi’s body swayed to the side like a tumbler doll, perfectly evading the fatal strike.

For a moment, He Gu couldn’t tell. ’Was Chen Qingdi just lucky, or did he calculate the exact way to dodge?’

’If it’s the latter, then Chen Qingdi is a true expert.’

However, He Gu chose to believe it was the former. He refused to believe Chen Qingdi was an expert.

”Well, kid, you’re quick on your feet.”

”But let’s see how many more times you can dodge.”

”I refuse to believe you’ll be this lucky every time,”

He Gu said, his expression cold.

As he spoke, He Gu attacked again.

Meanwhile, Ni Wei and his men were watching intently.

At first, they thought Chen Qingdi was just some kid at the Guiyuan Realm who could be dealt with easily.

But after He Gu unleashed dozens of consecutive moves, he still hadn’t managed to land a single blow on Chen Qingdi.

Gradually, the onlookers’ perception of Chen Qingdi began to change.

Each time, Chen Qingdi effortlessly dodged He Gu’s fierce, killing blows. That couldn’t be just good luck.

Watching the scene unfold from a platform to the side, Ni Wei grew increasingly anxious.

’This Chen Qingdi is not going to be easy to deal with,’ he realized with growing certainty.

”He Gu, attack his legs! His stance looks unstable!”

Ni Wei shouted.

”Right.”

He Gu quickly nodded.

He Gu immediately began attacking Chen Qingdi’s lower body.

But to He Gu’s surprise, Chen Qingdi’s stance was incredibly solid.

His leg sweeps connected several times, but Chen Qingdi didn’t react in the slightest.

He Gu, after all, considered himself to be an entire major realm stronger than Chen Qingdi.

Yet in this fight against Chen Qingdi, he hadn’t gained a single advantage. To him, this was simply unacceptable.

”How is this possible?”

”How have I not taken you down yet?”

He Gu muttered.

”Because you’re weak, and your character is even weaker,”

Chen Qingdi replied.

Chen Qingdi’s words nearly made He Gu explode with rage.

”What did you say? You dare to disrespect me, boy?”

”I could kill you where you stand,”

He Gu said icily.

”Oh? I’m waiting for you to use your ultimate move.”

”Still haven’t used it yet?”

Chen Qingdi watched He Gu with a mocking gaze.

He Gu’s eyes turned glacial.

A moment later, he charged toward Chen Qingdi, roaring, ”Don’t dodge if you’ve got any guts!”

”Fine. I won’t dodge.”

Chen Qingdi nodded.

And just like that, Chen Qingdi stood his ground, not moving an inch.

The onlookers were dumbfounded. They all thought Chen Qingdi must have a death wish.

If he didn’t move, this palm strike from He Gu would surely take his life.

Just as the spectators were thinking this, He Gu’s palm struck Chen Qingdi squarely in the chest.

”Hahaha!”

”I see you really are a fool, kid.”

”Daring to let me hit you like that... you truly don’t fear death,”

He Gu sneered.

”A palm strike like that isn’t enough to take my life,”

Chen Qingdi stated calmly.

Seeing this, He Gu froze completely.

He had thought that one palm strike would easily take Chen Qingdi’s life.

But now, it seemed he had been sorely mistaken.

Not only did the blow fail to take Chen Qingdi’s life, it didn’t even make him cough.

Chen Qingdi looked at He Gu with deep-seated scorn.

”Is this the full extent of your strength?”

”It doesn’t seem all that impressive. And with this, you lot think you can help Wu Qiang become Patriarch? I suggest you give up on that idea.”

”Elder Wu may be getting on in years, but his mind is still clear. This Wu Qiang, on the other hand, seems muddle-headed. His actions today have been pathetic.”

”Wu Qiang, if you want the position of Wu Family Patriarch, this is not the way to prove yourself. Right now, the only thing you’ve demonstrated is your ambition. In every other respect, you are completely worthless,”

Chen Qingdi said bluntly.

”What did you say? What right do you have to judge me?”

Wu Qiang retorted, his face filled with rage.
