Medical and Martial God

Ye Xiu was speechless; was there actually someone in the Royal City who didn’t recognize Lei Xiaoming’s face?

How bizarre!

How strange!

However, looking at the Fifth Prince’s expression, attitude, and the way he questioned Yufei, it seemed he had feelings for her!

Interesting!

”You don’t recognize him?”

Yufei was taken aback. Lei Xiaoming had been known as a good-for-nothing for 20 years, the most famous person in the Royal City, yet the Fifth Prince didn’t recognize him.

”Hmph, what kind of dog is he to deserve my recognition?” said the Fifth Prince dismissively.

”Lin Fan, don’t be rude!” Yufei scolded, ”This is Lei Xiaoming...”

”Lei Xiaoming?”

The Fifth Prince, Lin Fan, laughed angrily, pointing at Ye Xiu and asking Yufei:

”Yufei, your taste is really heavy, to not even spare a good-for-nothing like Lei Xiaoming?”

Yufei’s face changed; she realized that Lin Fan seemed to have genuine feelings for her, and she panicked.

”Lin Fan, come with me, I need to talk to you alone.”

Yufei tugged at Lin Fan’s sleeve and said.

Slap!

Lin Fan shook off Yufei’s hand and slapped her, cursing her:

”You promiscuous woman, claiming you only love me, yet you sneak around with other men. And you choose Lei Xiaoming, this worthless, unsightly beast? I’ll beat you to death...”

Lin Fan grew angrier with every word, punching and kicking Yufei.

Yufei curled up on the ground, covering her head, silently enduring Lin Fan’s attacks without saying a word.

She dared not fight back or cry out, knowing that if the matter escalated, King Lin Lei would surely execute her.

”You...”

After beating Yufei, Lin Fan turned to point at Ye Xiu, furious:

”You worthless trash, daring to snatch my woman; are you courting death?”

Then he attempted to hit Ye Xiu.

Ye Xiu quickly stepped back three steps, saying, ”I advise you to think carefully before making a move. I won’t take a beating like Yufei without retaliating.”

”Retaliate? I’d like to see you try!”

Overwhelmed with anger, Lin Fan kicked at Ye Xiu.

Crack!

A bolt of thunder descended from the sky, striking Lin Fan on the head.

It stunned Lin Fan: ”You really dare to retaliate? Do you know who I am? My father is the King, I am the Fifth Prince, you dare hit a Prince, do you have a death wish?”

Slap!

Ye Xiu slapped Lin Fan, causing him to fall face-first into the dirt, sneering:

”What’s so special about a Fifth Prince? I’m Kristina’s personal guard, am I showing off?”

Lin Fan lay on the ground with his head buzzing, not even hearing what Ye Xiu was saying.

He couldn’t believe it; someone had actually dared to hit him, and on the face no less.

”I’ll kill you!”

Feeling humiliated and insulted, Lin Fan got up and frantically attacked Ye Xiu.

As a Fifth Realm War God, his fighting frenzy was not to be underestimated.

But Ye Xiu, now as Lei Xiaoming, only nominally a Fifth Realm War God, found it too much to defeat Lin Fan with one move, so he dodged and evaded Lin Fan’s attacks.

Seizing the opportunity, a bolt of thunder knocked Lin Fan over.

The last strike had used only a smidgen of the Thunder System Totem’s power, so it didn’t hurt Lin Fan;

However, this time, Ye Xiu directly used the power of the Fourth Stage Thunder System Totem, wielding a Fifth Realm War God’s might.

Lin Fan was knocked down, twitching and smoking on the ground.

”Go ask your father who I am before deciding if you’ll seek revenge.”

Ye Xiu kicked Lin Fan a hundred meters away, helped Yufei up, and asked:

”Are you okay?”

Despite Lin Fan having beaten and kicked Yufei severely, she desperately protected her face, so no injuries were visible externally.

”I’m fine; it’s just a minor injury!”

Yufei smiled awkwardly, saying:

”Mr. Lei, I’m sorry, but I’m injured now and can’t accompany you on a tour of the Royal Palace, I need to go back and rest to heal my wounds.”

Ye Xiu, feeling anxious, said, ”If you don’t accompany me, I can’t wander the palace freely,”

”You going back now, aren’t you afraid of Lin Fan seeking revenge?”

Yufei furrowed her brows lightly. Knowing Lin Fan well, she understood that after being struck by Ye Xiu’s lightning, he would undoubtedly seek an easy target to vent his anger on, meaning he would surely come after her.

”Then, what should I do?” Yufei, having no idea what to do now, said.

”Keep accompanying me on the tour. Lin Fan won’t find you, and once his anger subsides, he’ll calm down,” Ye Xiu suggested.

Yufei thought for a moment and felt Ye Xiu made sense. If her relationship with Lin Fan was exposed, the King might not kill Lin Fan, but he would certainly ruin him.

So once Lin Fan had calmed down, he definitely wouldn’t dare to escalate the matter further.

”Alright.” Yufei nodded.

So Ye Xiu and Yufei continued to ’tour’ the Royal Palace.

Meanwhile, after being kicked away by Ye Xiu, Lin Fan lay on the ground for two hours before regaining his composure, the lightning strike having caused heavy injuries.

He returned home to treat his wounds but grew angrier the more he thought about it, deciding to go to Yufei’s villa to beat her again.

But Yufei wasn’t home; only her maid was there.

Lin Fan beat the maid up instead.

However, this didn’t satisfy his anger.

He ran to find Lin Lei: ”Father, I was beaten.”

Lin Lei saw Lin Fan all scorched, with curly hair, and flew into a rage, asking:

”Who dares to attack the Prince?”

”It was Lei Xiaoming, the most famous good-for-nothing in the Royal City,” Lin Fan complained.

Hearing the name Lei Xiaoming gave Lin Lei a headache, and he asked:

”Why did he hit you?”

Uh!

Lin Fan was at a loss!

Although impulsive, he knew the severity of the matter.

If Lin Lei found out about his relationship with Yufei, he would be finished!

So he said, ”I don’t know why he struck me with lightning, maybe he just didn’t like my face, father, you must avenge me.”

Revenge?

That troublemaker Lei Xiaoming is Kristina’s guard, do I have the guts to avenge you?

Suddenly!

Lin Lei had a brainwave, saying: ”Last night in the Thousand Mechanism Hall, Lei Xiaoming really shamed Yuan Wu; he’s just a reckless fool, attacking anyone.”

This remark, on the surface expressing helplessness towards Lei Xiaoming, subtly hinted to Lin Fan that Lei Xiaoming had a grudge with Yuan Wu.

”I understand, father! I’ll take my leave now.”

Lin Fan turned and left, going straight to find Yuan Wu!

Lin Lei laughed, thinking to let Yuan Wu teach Lei Xiaoming a lesson, venting both his and Lin Fan’s anger.

From Lin Lei’s perspective, ’Lei Xiaoming’ was no match for Yuan Wu, and Yuan Wu wouldn’t dare kill ’Lei Xiaoming,’ but giving him a beating was certainly possible.
