The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

Chapter 699: Chapter 695: Bloody Storm (Second Update!)

Nobody?

Seeing Lin Tian speak so light-heartedly, Nie Xingchen couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

After a moment of contemplation, he said to Lin Tian, “Senior, the group that injured me, they were wearing uniform attire, likely from an extraordinary origin. I suspect they are from a powerful sect! They injured me but did not deign to kill me, merely warning me to stay away from Dragon Creek Mountain. It’s clear they are proud and confident, not putting me in their eyes at all…”

“A sect’s members?”

Lin Tian was surprised, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. He hadn’t expected that just coming to procure some Earthfire Stone to enhance his cultivation would involve a Cultivation Sect.

He was all too familiar with the nature of those in the Cultivation Sects of the Cultivation World.

They were mostly a group who held themselves in high regard, respecting none.

For the sake of treasures and resources, murder and plundering were common practices.

For any treasure that could enhance one’s cultivation and strength, anyone seen as competition would mercilessly be killed, their lives considered as trifles!

Nie Xingchen’s survival from those people’s attack was indeed fortunate!

Lin Tian himself wasn’t afraid of these people, it was just… troublesome!

“Senior, I’ve never seen the attire these people wore and can’t recognize their origin!”

Nie Xingchen said helplessly, his face filled with worry, “But the leader among them is very powerful! If we continue ahead, we should be cautious…”

Lin Tian could tell Nie Xingchen was reminding him, but he shook his head, “You just need to lead the way, I’ll handle everything when we arrive! My only concern is they may have taken the items and fled…”

“Senior, don’t worry, those red stones aren’t easily obtained. Dragon Creek Mountain is guarded by a fierce beast; their actions won’t be so swift!”

Cheen Chaoya intervened, reminding from the side.

Lin Tian nodded and got back into the car with the other two, continuing southward.

However, they hadn’t traveled far when suddenly four figures appeared on the road ahead, with one person lying injured on the ground.

As they approached, Cheen Chaoya’s expression changed, and he exclaimed, “The injured one is from my team, and I recognize the other three… Senior, please wait a moment!”

Saying this, Cheen Chaoya hurriedly got out of the car.

“Let’s all go over and have a look!”

Lin Tian said to Nie Xingchen, and together, they got out of the car and walked over.

“Mr. You, Mr. Sheng, Mr. Rong, what brings you all here?”

Lin Tian approached and saw Cheen Chaoya greeting the three standing figures with surprise.

The three, two men and one woman.

One of the male cultivators was rather stout, while the other was very imposing, not given to smiles.

As for the woman, in her thirties, she radiated a mature charm, thoroughly a beautiful woman, her every smile and frown filled with allure.

“Mr. Cheen, you actually made it!”

The mature, beautiful woman and the other two had seen the approaching car early on, and seeing Cheen Chaoya come over, the woman looked up first, “We just arrived too, and ran into your subordinate Akun, but he’s injured! Fortunately, it’s not fatal yet.”

“Thanks a lot to the three of you for your righteous assistance!”

Cheen Chaoya quickly checked on Akun on the ground, relieved to see no life-threatening danger, and then expressed his gratitude to the three.

“Mr. Cheen, no need to be polite!”

The three waved their hands, and then they noticed Lin Tian and Nie Xingchen approaching.

Seeing Nie Xingchen, the three changed expression, hurrying to greet him, “Senior Nie!”

As for Lin Tian, he was ignored, thought to be a junior accompanying Nie Xingchen.

Nie Xingchen was someone they recognized, all three being Loose Cultivators and long-time friends of Cheen Chaoya. They were also aware that the cultivation skills Cheen Chaoya possessed were granted by the man before them!

After Xingchen and Cheen Chaoya gave a brief introduction, Lin Tian also learned about the origins of the three people before him.

The stout man was named You Wei; the serious, tall, and dignified man was Rong Cheng’an, and the mature, beautiful woman was Sheng Zishu.

All three were from Xiangjiang Province. In their early years, they had encountered a stroke of luck that enabled them to embark on the path of cultivation.

But they had only just embarked, although they had all reached the Qi Refining First Level Peak, their actual strength was, in fact, unremarkable. They had no powerful spells and knew only the most basic Fire Bomb Technique.

This was the difficulty of being a Loose Cultivator.

Having understood about the three, Lin Tian also took the initiative to introduce himself, but mentioned only that being called Mr. Lin was sufficient.

Nie Xingchen and Cheen Chaoya understood tacitly and also changed their address for him; they could roughly guess that Lin Tian didn’t want to draw attention.

Mr. Lin?

Sheng Zishu and the others were somewhat surprised. Anyone who could make Nie Xingchen call them Mr. Lin must have an extraordinary background, they assumed he was from some sect.

But they quickly dismissed this thought, because at that moment, Lin Tian took out some Silver Needles and began to treat a young man named Akun, a subordinate of Cheen Chaoya, whom he helped casually.

The previously dying Akun revived under Lin Tian’s hands in less than ten minutes, as lively as a dragon.

“Mr. Lin’s medical skill is simply like an Immortal—it’s miraculous…”

Sheng Zishu and the others were shocked and couldn’t help but exclaim.

Although Nie Xingchen and Cheen Chaoya had expected this, they still continuously marveled.

By now, Sheng Zishu and the others clearly understood why Nie Xingchen called Lin Tian “Mr. Lin”—it was likely because of his miraculous medical skills!

So powerful!

Bringing the dead back to life wasn’t an exaggeration, with such a level of medical skill, who wouldn’t respect him?

“Thank you, sir!”

Akun stood up, gratefully bowing to Lin Tian, then turned to Cheen Chaoya and said, “Mr. Cheen, many mysterious and powerful people have appeared on Dragon Creek Mountain—two or three hundred people, especially a group wearing the same uniforms, they kill any of our people on sight! The others are… all dead! Only I managed to escape!”

Cheen Chaoya’s expression darkened. He clenched his teeth and finally sighed, “Keep today’s matters to yourself. Don’t mention them to anyone else, or people will die! Now, go back, drive back!”

“Yes, I should drive away! I almost forgot! Coming here already made us a big target!”

Akun noticed the car parked there, his expression changed and he said fearfully, “Those people are terrifying! They not only killed our people but also killed many of the mysterious people, and some of those started fighting each other! The scene there… was literally a river of blood! If you, Mr. Cheen, plan to go and investigate, you must be careful!”

Nie Xingchen and Sheng Zishu, and the others couldn’t help but gasp in shock.

These people were ruthless for the treasure.

Once Akun had left, Lin Tian followed a few people on foot. Regarding the actions of this group of sect people, he had already anticipated this and then said, “The mysterious and powerful people Akun mentioned just now, they must be Loose Cultivators like you?”

“Mr. Lin, that’s probably right. But where would so many Loose Cultivators come from Xiangjiang Province? They must have come from other provinces, or even… other Cultivation Domains!”

Nie Xingchen nodded his head and explained, “Those Loose Cultivators wouldn’t go to such extents for a treasure they haven’t even touched. There must have been existing grudges! But those sect people, they are indeed troublesome…”

Listening to this, Lin Tian just smiled and didn’t mind.

Shortly after, the group followed a rocky trail through the wilderness, overcame a mountain dip, and then saw a giant mountain nestled between a towering forest and a swamp emerge on the horizon.

Even from afar, Lin Tian could vaguely see figures flickering at the foot of the mountain.

Moreover, he could smell the bloody scent drifting in the air.

Not long after, inside a small creek, five bodies lay scattered—three dressed in modern attire, two in strange clothes.

“These three in casual wear were my subordinates!”

Looking down at the creek bed, Cheen Chaoya’s expression was as gloomy as water, and he turned back to glance at Lin Tian, his voice grave, “The other two should be Loose Cultivators, unknown origins.”

“In the path of cultivation, every step has corpses. How can one remain uninvolved? Only those with great strength can step on the bones of others!”

Lin Tian spoke with an indifferent expression, coldly stating, “Let’s go, let’s take a look first! After I’ve seen enough of the excitement, I’ll retrieve the treasure!”
