Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 1445: Chapter 1445: All Show and No Substance! (5 Updates)

”Hu Ke, I always knew you had some shady dealings behind the scenes. But I never thought you’d go so far as to target your own brother for a measly Family Head position.”

Hu Wang’s face was still a bit pale, but his emotions were exceptionally intense, clearly furious to the extreme.

”Brother? Haha,” Hu Ke suddenly laughed maniacally and said, ”Are we really brothers? You’ve always been the one showered with care and love, while I was pushed aside, constantly compared to you.

Even for the Family Head position, the old man never asked me but directly passed it to you. Why? Born of the same mother, just because you’re tall and strong, while I’m short and ugly?”

Well, no wonder there’s such resentment. It turns out this guy has harbored dissatisfaction since childhood. After accumulating over decades, he can really do anything.

Ye Haochuan thought silently but didn’t interrupt. After all, this was a family matter.

”You really want this Family Head position so badly?” Hu Wang asked with some heartache.

”My childhood dream has always been to become the head of the family like my father and make the Hu Family flourish.”

Tears welled up in Hu Ke’s eyes, but soon, his yearning turned into hatred as he shouted at Hu Wang, ”It’s because of your existence that my dream completely shattered, so I hate you.”

”If you want the Family Head position, you could’ve just told me. We are brothers; what’s the harm in giving it to you? Why resort to this?”

”Would you be willing to let go of power in your hands?” Hu Ke sneered, ”Besides, even if you were willing, the old man wouldn’t agree.”

”I can explain to father. I’m ready to give you the Family Head position now; I only hope that our brotherhood can be harmonious. How about it?” Hu Wang sincerely replied.

”Hahaha, that old man has already gone to meet King Yama, there’s no need for you to explain! This Family Head position, it’s mine!” Hu Ke laughed a bit crazily.

”What? Father...” Hu Wang was shocked, taking several steps back, momentarily unable to speak.

Ye Haochuan, seeing Hu Ke’s state, chuckled lightly and said, ”Seems like that old man’s death really has something to do with you! Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sacrificed himself for an ’unnecessary’ Blood Pill.”

”That’s right!” Anyway, things had come to this point, Hu Ke couldn’t be bothered to hide anything. He said, ”It was I who told Elder Cheng that your illness required Iron Bull Blood Pill to cure it. That old man, indeed full of paternal love, went for broke against the Iron Bull.”

At the end of his statement, Hu Ke was clearly gritting his teeth, obviously displeased with the old man’s actions.

”You...you...cough cough cough~” Hu Wang was furious, his face turning pale, already beginning to cough violently before even finishing his sentence.

His body had been afflicted by poisons for many days, very weak. Now angry and agitated, his physical injuries flared up immediately, causing him to cough up a large mouthful of blood.

”Hahaha, even if you recover, what can you do? With your current condition, with only a fraction of your strength left, what can you fight me with?” Hu Ke laughed arrogantly, eyes full of murderous intent.

”I say, with me standing right here, are you completely ignoring me?” Ye Haochuan smirked.

”You?” Seeing Ye Haochuan, Hu Ke gritted his teeth in anger, ”Earlier, I just didn’t want unnecessary complications, but do you really think I can’t beat you?”

”I truly regret not killing you, this brat, before, wasting so much of my effort. But fortunately, the outcome is unchanged. Killing you now will be the same.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Ke decided not to waste any more time, summoned a longsword, and charged straight at Ye Haochuan.

”Nine-Tailed Sword Qi!”

With a light shout, a fiery red Nine-Tailed Demon Fox instantly appeared around Hu Ke. The fox’s nine tails transformed into nine sharp swords, attacking together with Hu Ke’s longsword, imposing.

”Young friend, be careful, this is a Hu Family’s secret technique...”

Hu Wang wanted to assist but his injuries were too severe; he couldn’t do anything in time, so he could only warn.

”The momentum is somewhat interesting!” Ye Haochuan was not fearful; instead, he examined the Cultivation Technique curiously.

His own Cultivation Techniques also had the ability to manifest mythical creatures, like Sword Across the Universe, which could form into a dragon.

But many of these creature manifestations were mostly condensed from Spiritual Energy, having beast-like grandeur but lacking beast-like aura.

However, the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox Hu Ke summoned now faintly had the aura of a Nine-Tailed Demon Fox. It made one feel as though they were facing a real Nine-Tailed Demon Fox.

Dazed for a moment, as Hu Ke’s sword was about to strike, Ye Haochuan quickly regained his senses and used his technique.

”Xuanwu Force Vein, activate!”

”Sword Destroying Star!”

This combination was one Ye Haochuan had used countless times, highly adept.

Power conquers all; as Ye Haochuan’s massive golden sword blade slashed down, the unstoppable force made Hu Ke’s heart suddenly panic.

However, his sword was already unleashed, with no room for regret. He could only urge the nine fox tails to clash with the golden blade.

Crack~

The intense collision sent Gang Wind swirling throughout the room, followed by a crisp sound. The nine fox tails rapidly disintegrated. The disintegration was unstoppable, gradually spreading to the entire Nine-Tailed Demon Fox.

The Demon Fox let out a reluctant cry but ultimately turned into scattered starlight, disappearing without a trace.

Pfft~

Hu Ke, connected with the demon fox’s heart, was affected and spat a mouthful of blood, his energy visibly declining.

”Alas, I thought it was a powerful Cultivation Technique, didn’t expect it to be all show but impractical!” Ye Haochuan sighed.

Seeing the Cultivation Technique’s resplendent display earlier, he felt envious. The Seven Segments of Flying Rainbow was becoming overused, and in terms of power, was gradually unable to keep up with his cultivation.

It’s a pity, a technique that sparked his envy ended up being so weak, making him instantly lose interest.

”How could this be? You’re just at Core Formation Mid-Stage, no matter how strong, how could you defeat my Nine-Tailed Sword Qi?” Hu Ke was horrified, his face full of disbelief.

Beside him, Hu Wang was also shocked to see Ye Haochuan easily fending off Hu Ke’s attack. But soon, the shock turned into disappointment towards Hu Ke.

”Always fixated on power struggles, never truly cultivating. How could father not be disappointed when our family’s legacy skill is used by you like this?”

”Don’t bring that old man up in front of me! If he had been fair back then, I wouldn’t have spent so much time fighting for power.” Hu Ke spoke with resentment.

”Alas, truly an unrepentant guy!” Ye Haochuan couldn’t stand it anymore, shaking his head and sighing, ”They’re both his sons, do you really think your father only cared for your brother?”

”Brat, you haven’t lived in this family, what do you know!” Hu Ke sneered.

”About your nonsense, indeed I don’t know. But, from the letter I sent back just now, many things were clear at a glance.” Ye Haochuan smirked.

”Don’t try to fool me; the old man’s letter simply wants to pass the Family Head to that Hu Zhong guy. Otherwise, why would he let you deliver the letter to him?”

”The letter is for Hu Zhong, but it doesn’t mean the Family Head position is also for him!” Ye Haochuan laughed.
