The Master and His Wealthy Fiancée

The fatty’s name was Wu Yueqiang. He was Martial Hero’s cousin, as well as the legal representative and director of Yueqiang Company.

He had originally planned to claim credit for dealing with two people from the Li Group, but instead, he was slapped by his big brother the moment they met. Not only was it a huge loss of face, but he also felt extremely wronged.

Martial Hero was now frantic and at a complete loss. He had offended Mr. Chen. Not only would there be no pills, but he might also face dire consequences.

He asked furiously, ”What in the world have you done?”

Fatty, his face cold, pointed to the two people on the warehouse floor.

”There. I dealt with two people from the Li Group.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Qi froze on the spot. Martial Hero dropped straight to his knees, crying out, ”Oh, god!”

He knew that Mr. Chen was with the Li Group. He had personally seen Mr. Chen helping the Li Group collect a debt just two days ago, and now his own cousin had beaten people from the Li Group to this state.

He suddenly remembered telling Wu Yueqiang to give the Li Group a good thrashing if he ever got the chance. Now their relationship with the Li Group had changed from enemies to allies they desperately wanted to curry favor with, but he had forgotten to tell Wu Yueqiang. The main reason was that it had all started as a favor for Liu Qi, and then a long time had passed, and he had gotten busy and forgotten.

It seemed now that he was the main reason this had happened. For a moment, he didn’t know what to do.

”Quick, get them to a hospital!” Liu Qi said hurriedly.

Martial Hero also snapped back to his senses. ”Hundred Herbs Hall! It’s closer, and Divine Doctor Xue is better at treating bruises and injuries.”

The two of them quickly and personally took the men to Hundred Herbs Hall, and on the way, they also got a clear picture of what happened.

The Li Group had ordered a batch of lumber from Yueqiang Wood Co., Ltd., but at the time, Liu Qi had given the order not to supply the Li Group with any materials. So, Yueqiang Wood took the money but didn’t deliver a single piece of goods. Today, Wang Hao and Zhang Zhiyi had come to demand their money back, only to get a thorough beating from the people at Yueqiang Wood, who were only following the order against the Li Group.

The fault lay with Martial Hero, but he couldn’t bring himself to make his cousin take the fall. However, Liu Qi also bore responsibility; the initial order had been given for his sake, a command issued to repay a favor to the Sun Family.

At that moment, neither of them could think of a good solution, and they paced around in panic.

The irony was, the Sun Family were the ones who had actually harmed Liu Qi. That so-called ”favor” from before now seemed to be a setup, one that had made a fool of Liu Qi and even led to his son’s capture. In the end, it was Chen Dong who had saved his son. Not only did Chen Dong save his son, but he had also given him an extremely valuable pill. And now, they had beaten Chen Dong’s colleagues into this miserable state. Chen Dong had even specifically told them to look after the Li Family, yet they had turned out to be the ones persecuting them.

Both men were filled with shame and fear.

In the end, Liu Qi had no choice but to call Chen Dong and explain what had happened.

After listening, Chen Dong hung up without saying a word.

When he arrived at Hundred Herbs Hall, he completely ignored Liu Qi and Martial Hero. He greeted Xue Tianxiang, asked Xue Lele to watch Li Wang for a bit, and then personally treated Wang Hao and Zhang Zhiyi.

Wang Hao’s injuries were more severe, so after finishing the treatment, Chen Dong wrote out a special prescription for him.

Afterward, he summoned Liu Qi and Martial Hero to a private room, the fury on his face clear for all to see.

Seeing this, the two men could think of no better solution and immediately tried to kneel and admit their mistake.

Chen Dong waved his hand, and the two found they were physically unable to kneel.

Panicking, the two men hastily started to speak, ”Mr. Chen, we—”

Chen Dong raised a hand, signaling them to be quiet. ”It seems you didn’t take what I said to heart at all!” he said coldly.

As he spoke, True Qi condensed in his palm, and he struck Liu Qi’s Dantian.

”What I gave you, I am taking back!” His voice was ice-cold.

Liu Qi clutched his stomach in pain. The True Qi that had brought him to the Grandmaster realm vanished, and even his original True Qi disappeared completely along with it. Now, Liu Qi could at best be considered an Inner Strength Martial Artist.

With another flick of his hand, Chen Dong sent two Silver Needles shooting into Martial Hero’s left arm.

His voice, filled with a chilling frost, spoke again. ”Crippling your True Qi settles the score between us. Crippling your arm is revenge for Wang Hao and the other. From now on, we’ll go our separate ways. And I’m warning you, don’t ever cross me again. Next time, I won’t be so lenient!”

With that, Chen Dong walked out of the room.

The two men left in the room were filled with endless regret. Perhaps it was just as Chen Dong had said—they hadn’t taken his words to heart at all. Otherwise, something like this would never have happened.

Returning to the main hall, Chen Dong was met by Xue Tianxiang, who was waiting for him with the prescription in hand.

”Chen, about this prescription, I was wondering...”

Before Xue Tianxiang could finish, Chen Dong said, ”Divine Doctor Xue, if you like it, feel free to use it.”

The prescription was specialized for treating external bruises and injuries, and Chen Dong was not one to be stingy.

Xue Tianxiang’s face lit up with a smile. He specialized in treating external bruises and injuries, and one look at Chen Dong’s prescription was enough for him to see its extraordinary nature. It was far superior to the formulas he usually used, which was why he had immediately come to wait for Chen Dong, hoping to ask for it.

Overjoyed at getting the prescription, Xue Tianxiang said, ”Chen, regarding the medicinal herbs you asked me to collect for you, I’ve already acquired two of them.”

The last time they were at the hospital, Chen Dong had transferred two hundred million to Xue Tianxiang to procure herbs, and in just a short time, two had already been found.

Xue Tianxiang soon brought over two boxes. In one was a stalk of Nine Yang Grass, and in the other, a Qingxu Root.

The Qingxu Root was exactly what Chen Dong needed. It could be used to refine a Purifying Void Pill, which could rapidly heal his internal injuries.

The trouble was, the Purifying Void Pill was so difficult to refine that it was beyond what a rice cooker could handle.

He then took some supplementary herbs from Xue Tianxiang before leaving Hundred Herbs Hall with Li Wang.
