Medical and Martial God

They want to force themselves on me?

Ye Xiu glanced at Chenyu Luoyan, and his stomach cramped violently. He had never been one to judge people by their appearance, but Chenyu Luoyan’s looks were truly beyond words.

They had pigs’ snouts, a mess of crooked teeth jutting out, and drool dripping from the corners of their mouths.

Being targeted by such women, Ye Xiu felt utterly humiliated.

”Tu La, I’ll leave these two to you. I really can’t bring myself to do it.”

Ye Xiu turned to speak to Tu La, then suddenly froze.

Where’s Tu La?

Ye Xiu helplessly turned back to face the approaching pair. With every step they took, a foul stench drifted toward him on the wind, and his stomach immediately churned.

”Hello, Ye Xiu,” one of them said shyly. ”My name is Chen Yu, and... and you’re really handsome!”

The other one leered and added, ”My name is Luo Yan. We sisters have taken a liking to you. If you cooperate, we’ll just have our way with you. If you don’t, well, we’ll kill you.”

Oh! So that’s the story behind the name ’Chenyu Luoyan’! The idiom ’Chenyu Luoyan’ describes a woman of unparalleled beauty. However, if you break the idiom apart, the names ’Chen Yu’ and ’Luo Yan’ suddenly describe ugly women instead! Their parents must have been quite the wordsmiths to come up with such fitting names.

”Don’t come any closer!” Ye Xiu said, fighting the urge to vomit. He held up a hand, signaling to the pair, who were now only five meters away. ”Take one more step, and I’ll make my move.”

Ye Xiu truly lacked the courage to ”admire” Chen Yu and Luo Yan up close. Even if he had to fight, he would only use ranged attacks. Close-quarters combat? Heh, no thanks.

Chen Yu and Luo Yan were not pleased.

Luo Yan pouted. ”Sister, it seems Ye Xiu doesn’t want to cooperate.”

”Men are all like that,” Chen Yu consoled her. ”Stubborn as mules. They won’t move when you lead them, but they’ll back up if you hit them. Once we beat him up a bit, he’ll behave.”

Luo Yan nodded. ”Then let’s beat him up. Remember not to hit his face, though. It’s too handsome; it would be a shame to damage it.”

With that, Chen Yu and Luo Yan charged toward Ye Xiu, their heavy footsteps making the very ground tremble. The sight made so many goosebumps break out on Ye Xiu’s skin that he felt he’d lost three pounds from it. He was just about to unleash a ranged attack when he saw dozens of people running toward them from a distance.

”Ye Xiu is over there!”

”Chenyu Luoyan, Ye Xiu is ours!”

”Whoever kills Ye Xiu gets the bounty!”

Seeing that Chen Yu and Luo Yan had already engaged, the newcomers scrambled to be the first to reach Ye Xiu. An idea sparked in Ye Xiu’s mind.

”Chenyu Luoyan, if you crush the skulls of those dozens of people for me, I’ll cooperate with you,” he offered.

Their eyes lit up. ”Really?”

”Really!” Ye Xiu nodded with utmost sincerity.

Instantly, Chen Yu and Luo Yan, who had been charging at Ye Xiu, executed a sharp pivot and turned their fury on the incoming crowd. Their fighting style was unique, like a pair of frenzied buffalo, simply using their massive bodies to ram into people. A single charge sent seven men flying. Chen Yu smashed one man’s head with a single punch. Luo Yan leaped into the air and flattened another man with her rear.

Impressive! Ye Xiu was secretly amazed.

He had wanted to watch their peculiar fighting style for a bit longer, but Tu La’s desperate cries for help suddenly reached him. ”Ye Xiu, save me! Help me!”

Ye Xiu’s expression changed drastically. He dashed in Tu La’s direction, guided by his cries and the Sacrificial Heart Imprint. He hadn’t run far when he felt the Sacrificial Heart Imprint inside Tu La vanish.

Tu La was dead!

A dark look instantly crossed Ye Xiu’s face, but he didn’t slow down. He sprinted at full speed to the location where the imprint had disappeared. There were clear signs of a struggle, but Tu La’s body was gone!

Who could have killed Tu La?

Less than a minute had passed between hearing Tu La’s call for help and his death. Tu La was at the peak of the Seventh Realm. To kill him so quickly required extraordinary strength.

Ye Xiu took out the notebook Tu La had written, which contained information on the prisoners and everything he knew about the three major Judicator Families and the Eternal Kingdom. He flipped through it quickly.

According to Tu La’s notes, the only ones on Seven-Star Island capable of killing him in under a minute are Beishan Xiao, the Harpist, Chenyu Luoyan, and the duo Crouching Dragon and Fledgling Phoenix. Beishan Xiao is dead, and Chenyu Luoyan are currently in a fight. That leaves only the Harpist and the pair, Crouching Dragon and Fledgling Phoenix. Killing someone and taking their body... only Crouching Dragon and Fledgling Phoenix, who inherited the Witch Gu Heritage, would do that. They must be planning to refine Tu La’s body into a ’Corpse King’!

As far as Ye Xiu knew, the Corpse Gu Sect of the Xuanse Gu Clan possessed the ability to refine corpses into special zombies.

A Third Realm War God’s corpse could be refined into an ’Iron Corpse.’

A Fourth Realm War God’s corpse could be refined into a ’Bronze Corpse.’

A Fifth Realm War God’s corpse could be refined into a ’Silver Corpse.’

A Sixth Realm War God’s corpse could be refined into a ’Golden Corpse.’

A Seventh Realm War God’s corpse could be refined into a ’Corpse King.’

An Eighth Realm War God’s corpse could be refined into a ’Corpse Emperor.’

A Ninth Realm War God’s corpse could be refined into a ’Corpse God.’

With Tu La’s strength at the peak of a Seventh Realm War God, he could be refined into a powerful Corpse King. After the process, the Corpse King’s strength and defensive power would surpass what Tu La had possessed in life.

Crouching Dragon and Fledgling Phoenix are the most dangerous ones here. Once I kill them, the rest can be used as training fodder for the Martial Artists from Biluo Island.

Ye Xiu scanned his surroundings and called out in a loud voice, ”Crouching Dragon! Fledgling Phoenix! I am Ye Xiu! Do you dare to come out and fight me?”

He waited for several minutes, but neither of them appeared. Just then, his phone rang. It was Mo Luo. ”Young Master, according to our intelligence agents on Seven-Star Island, all of the lower-class inhabitants have committed suicide.”

A chill ran down Ye Xiu’s spine, and his scalp tingled. What? Over ten million lower-class inhabitants on the island, all dead! Didn’t that mean that once Crouching Dragon and Fledgling Phoenix controlled all the corpses, they could launch an attack on Biluo Island? Although Ye Xiu had set up Formations on Seven-Star Island, he wasn’t sure if anyone there knew how to break them.

”I remember that all the islands where the lower-class people lived had a large army of Mutated Beasts. Where are the Mutated Beasts on Seven-Star Island?” Ye Xiu asked.

”I’ll send you the location,” Mo Luo replied.

Soon, Ye Xiu received the location from Mo Luo and immediately rushed there at full speed. He planned to use the power of the hundreds of thousands of Mutated Beasts to wear down the numbers of the undead army.

「The Golden Family!」

”Tu La is dead!”

Stephanie summoned her butler. ”Inform everyone in the three Judicator Families that Tu La is dead!”

The butler was shocked. ”What? How did he die?”

”I don’t know!” Stephanie shook her head. ”With Tu La dead, Cha Muxue and Lin Chuan are likely dead as well. There’s no one left on Biluo Island to buy us time. My plan to launch a surprise attack on Biluo Island with the Mutated Beasts might be doomed.”

”You worry too much, Master!” the butler said respectfully. ”Though the Old Master is dead, those prisoners and the bounty hunters will continue to draw Biluo Island’s attention and buy us time.”

Stephanie’s eyes lit up. ”I almost forgot about that.”
