Gao Wu: I Can Draw a New Talent Every Month

31: Ban drugs, save lives”Uncle He, what is the strength of the Qian family like?” Li Canglan asked after some hesitation.

If the Qian family was very strong, he absolutely could not bring the siblings to the Martial Arts Pavilion.

His own actions must not implicate Uncle He.

”In terms of strength, they seem decent on the surface.”

Uncle He on the other end of the phone pondered for a moment, ”According to the records registered with the Martial Arts Association, the strongest member of the Qian family is a four-star Peak Martial Artist.”

Upon hearing this, Li Canglan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Pavilion Master Guan Zhenyue is a five-star Martial Artist; Uncle He’s strength shouldn’t be too far off.

Even if Uncle He’s strength had stagnated due to injuries from years ago, he wouldn’t be implicated by the Qian family because of him!

”What’s the matter? Why are you suddenly asking about the Qian family?” Uncle He asked, puzzled.

”I may have offended someone from the Qian family...”

”It’s fine, I’ll just have a word with the Qian family.” Uncle He laughed domineeringly, ”As long as you didn’t kill any of their direct descendants, it’s not an issue.”

Li Canglan couldn’t help but click his tongue.

Is this the legendary domineering aura leaking out?

It seems he had underestimated Uncle He!

”It’s hard to explain in a few words. Uncle He, I’m coming to the Martial Arts Pavilion right now.”

After hanging up, Li Canglan turned around and met the gaze of the little girl, who was looking at him nervously.

The little girl’s eyes were red from crying, making his heart tremble involuntarily.

”Let’s go, I’ve already found someone to save your brother.” Li Canglan sighed and carried the unconscious man on his back.

”Really?” The little girl’s weary eyes burst with a strong radiance, ”Thank you... thank you, Brother.”

As soon as they walked out of the alley, the little girl tugged on Li Canglan’s sleeve.

With her large eyes, she looked guardedly at the pedestrians passing by in the distance.

”Brother, be careful!” Li Canglan was stunned, ”What’s wrong?”

”Over there.”

Following the direction the little girl pointed, Li Canglan noticed several people who looked well-trained patrolling the streets and alleys.

”These are all people from the Qian family!” The little girl said, gritting her teeth.

Li Canglan felt a bit of envy.

Is this the strength of an Ability User?

A Martial Artist like him would not possess such keen observation skills.

It would require specialized training to possibly reach the same level as the little girl.

Yet for the little girl, this was almost instinctual.

Under the little girl’s guidance, the two carefully used passing pedestrians as cover.

They got into a taxi.

A dozen minutes later, they arrived near the Martial Arts Association.

”No... we can’t go in!” Just as they passed the Martial Arts Association, the little girl suddenly screamed in a low voice.

”What’s wrong?” Li Canglan lowered his head in surprise.

”There are people from the Qian family in there too.” The little girl pointed at the Martial Arts Association, her eyes filled with fear.

She tugged at Li Canglan’s sleeve, eager to leave this place.

”The person I found for your brother is not in there, but over there.” Li Canglan could only soothe the little girl softly.

If they caused too much of a commotion, it might attract the attention of many pedestrians.

At that point, they would definitely be discovered by the Qian family.

After carefully checking, the little girl confirmed that there were no Qian family members at the Martial Arts Pavilion, and then she slowly nodded.

However, her face still wore a nervous expression, and her demeanor remained guarded.

Li Canglan’s gaze was grave; the Qian family’s influence truly reached far!

If there really wasn’t anything fishy about the Qian family, would they need to mobilize so many people to hunt down a pair of siblings?

Martial Arts Pavilion.

Old He had already greeted the staff.

After entering, Li Canglan took the little girl directly to the third floor.

This was where Old He usually resided.

Under normal circumstances, no one would come to disturb him.

”Uncle He, please take a look and see if her brother can still be saved.” Li Canglan placed the man on a recliner.

The little girl looked at Old He anxiously, ”Grandpa, please, save my brother.”

Although Old He’s aura was not apparent, she could sense in her heart that this was a powerful expert!

An expert who was not even inferior to the people from the Qian family who had adopted the two siblings!

After seeing the symptoms on the unconscious man’s face, Old He’s expression changed slightly, and then, ignoring the little girl’s protests, he took off the man’s shirt.

His upper body was covered in various gruesome wounds.

From the wounds, green and even purple blood emitting a foul odor continuously flowed out.

Li Canglan was shocked; when they were running away earlier, he hadn’t noticed this smell.

Now that the clothes were removed, he almost vomited what he had eaten for lunch.

Forcing down the urge to gag, Li Canglan pinched his nose, ”Uncle He, what is this stuff? How can human blood be this color?”

Old He’s gaze was grave, ”This is a situation that only occurs when using forbidden drugs to modify the body.”

This was a rare occasion for Li Canglan to see such a grave expression on Uncle He’s face.

Old He exhaled a breath of turbid air, ”You just mentioned the Qian family; did these two children run away from the Qian family?”

Li Canglan gave a bitter smile, ”Indeed, nothing can be kept from you.”

”Grandpa, can you save my brother?” The little girl’s eyes were filled with tears; she didn’t know how many times she had cried over the past two days.

”As long as you can save my brother, Keer will do anything.”

A trace of pity rose in Li Canglan’s heart, ”Uncle He, can you save him?”

”I can find a way to alleviate his symptoms, but whether he can pull through depends on whether his own willpower is strong enough.”

Old He sighed and took out his phone to make a call.

A few minutes later, someone came to knock on the door.

After taking a box from that person, Old He thanked him.

”This is the Cleansing Heart Plant.”

Old He took out a Spiritual Plant from the box, which was suffused with fresh Spiritual Qi.

”After consuming the decoction made from the Cleansing Heart Plant, his blood will be completely reshaped, and the side effects brought about by the drug will naturally disappear.”

”Grandpa, I’ll go boil it right now!” Hearing that her brother could be saved, the little girl wiped away her tears and prepared to get to work.

”However,” Old He continued, ”during this process, he will experience immense pain. If he cannot persevere, then death is the only path.”

”Furthermore, all the pain he has endured before will yield no benefit. He will never have any hope of becoming an Ability User in this lifetime.”

”And to become a Martial Artist, he must put in a hundred times more effort than others!”

For others, this might not necessarily be an unacceptable outcome.

But for those who prioritize strength above all else, seeing all their previous efforts go down the drain is likely harder to accept than death itself.

Listening to Old He’s words, Keer hesitated for only a moment before taking the Cleansing Heart Plant from his hands.

”Nothing is more important than my brother’s life.”

”If my brother can’t become a Martial Artist in the future, then I will protect him for the rest of my life!”

After the little girl left, Old He sighed and took Li Canglan to the other side.

”I didn’t expect that the Qian family, behind the scenes, would disregard the regulations of Shenxia Country and use forbidden drugs on orphans!”

”Uncle He, what exactly does this forbidden drug refer to?”
