Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 771: Chapter 771 My Man is Not Him

In Demon City Palace Family.

The Demon City Palace Family is one of the Four Major Martial Arts Families in Demon City.

Its old ancestor is Old Gong, one of the Six Elders of Martial Arbitrators.

He is the Grandmaster of Xingyi Fist and represents the current pinnacle of Xingyi Fist in Dragon Country.

He was also the elder who watched Lin Dong’s fierce battle with Chen Beiming at The Imperial Mountain.

Of course, Old Gong is the old ancestor of the Gong Family. Having lived for over two hundred years, he rarely manages the Gong Family’s mundane matters.

He seldom stays at the Gong Family estate and is mostly at the headquarters of the Martial Path Arbiters in the Capital City.

At the moment, the person acting as the Clan Chief of the Gong Family is Li Qingcheng’s uncle, Gong Wu.

It has long been a rule of the Gong Family that if someone from the direct line is Gifted in the Martial Way, they are selected for Martial Arts cultivation and do not manage the mundane affairs of the Gong Family, focusing instead on cultivation.

Those without talent, like Gong Wu, are cultivated to become managers.

To manage the Gong Family’s mundane affairs.

Gong Wu’s martial talent was not up to par, so he chose the latter path. However, he turned out to be quite a talent in business.

In the years that he has been the Clan Chief of the Gong Family, he has turned it into a Business giant.

He has a keen eye for investment and founded the number one investment company in Demon City, ’Five Emperors Capital’. Although this investment company appears low-profile in the mundane world and is barely visible in various reports,

It holds a position of considerable significance in the real Capital Circle.

The corporate magnates of Dragon Country, such as the group owned by the Dragon Country’s Richest Group, the predecessor of the richest man, some new energy giants, liquor giants, and internet giants, all have ’Five Emperors Capital’ in their shadows more or less.

As the absolute ruler of ’Five Emperors Capital’, a single word from Gong Wu is enough to cause changes in the entire financial market of Demon City.

One of his decisions can cause the stocks to rise or fall that day.

At the moment, inside Gong Wu’s residence, ’Platinum Palace’, in the Gong Family.

Gong Wu sits next to a crystal table in the resplendent palace hall, which is laden with all sorts of exotic and delicious food.

He is holding a steel fork, eating a piece of ’goose liver’.

Beside him stands an extremely beautiful woman, who is none other than Li Qingcheng, who vanished from Jiangbei City.

Behind Li Qingcheng, there are two female bodyguards dressed in black leather, watching her.

After finishing the piece of goose liver on his fork, Gong Wu looks up at Li Qingcheng with a smile, and says,

”Qincheng, Uncle asked you to come to Demon City, was it that difficult for you?”

Li Qingcheng coldly huffed and said, ”Gong Wu, is this what you call asking?”

”Hmph, no respect! No matter what, I am your uncle. You call an elder by his name directly, is this the upbringing taught by that poor kid from Jianghai, Liu Chuanqi?” Gong Wu said with a commanding tone without showing anger.

Li Qingcheng, fearless, responded with a sneer,

”You’re not worthy to be my uncle!”

Gong Wu’s face turned iron blue; never before had a junior dared to speak to him this way.

In the Gong Family, which junior didn’t show him the utmost respect?

Even those who were Gifted in Martial Arts and favored by the old ancestor showed respect when they saw him and didn’t dare to be so irreverent.

He abruptly stood up, raising his hand, preparing to slap Li Qingcheng’s face.

”If Liu Chuanqi, that trash, can’t educate his daughter, I will!”

After finishing his words, his palm was already near Li Qingcheng’s face.

However, at this moment, Li Qingcheng suddenly raised her hand and grabbed his.

During her time with Lin Dong, when they combined Yin and Yang, he had also taught her the Nine Tripod Cauldrons symbol. She had only practiced it a few times, yet it brought her immense benefits.

The Nine Tripod Cauldrons symbol enhanced her constitution, and although it didn’t make her comparable to a Martial artist,

Catching the hand of an unarmed individual like Gong Wu, was more than within her capabilities.

She grabbed Gong Wu’s hand, which was about to strike her face, and said coldly,

”I’m not in need of your education!”

”You...” Gong Wu never imagined Li Qingcheng would dare to resist.

”Who gave you the courage to resist?”

”And who gave you the courage to try to hit me?” Li Qingcheng retorted defiantly.

”Hahaha...” In a fit of anger, Gong Wu laughed,” Why wouldn’t I dare to hit you? Who do you think you are? Just a little girl, do you think Liu Chuanqi, that trash, can protect you?”

”He can’t protect me, but my man can!” said Li Qingcheng.

”Your man? Wu Hao?” Hearing this, Gong Wu’s expression slightly changed; Li Qingcheng was indeed favored by Wu Hao of the Wu Family.

It was for this reason that he, no matter what, had to bring Li Qingcheng to Demon City.

The Wu Family is also one of the Four Major Martial Arts Families in Demon City!

Moreover, they are the leaders among the Four Major Martial Arts Families, and Wu Hao was considered highly talented in the Martial Way, also cherished and rigorously trained by their old ancestor, Baji Grandmaster, Elder Wu, who is ranked second among the Six Elders of Martial Arbitrators.

If Li Qingcheng could marry into their family, that would be of great benefit to him, Gong Wu.

Thinking this, he suddenly retracted his hand.

And his tone changed.

”Qincheng, Uncle might have been a bit harsh in my words just now, don’t take it to heart,” he said.

”After you marry Wu Hao, indeed, even your uncle will have to look up to you.”

”So, for your own sake, as well as for your deceased mother, you should marry Wu Hao,” he continued.

Upon hearing this, Li Qingcheng sneered, ”You misunderstood, the man I’m talking about is not Wu Hao. He, Wu Hao, is not worthy to be my man, Li Qingcheng.”

Hearing this, Gong Wu’s eyes widened in anger as he said,

”You... you gave yourself to someone else?”
