Strongest Medical Saint

As these words were said,

Xu Xiujie's expression faltered briefly before his eyes squinted sharply, a surge of anger igniting within his heart.

He had watched the previous medical competition too, and truth be told, he was astounded by Shen Feng's medical skills. Had the powerful backing of the Xu Family not taken an interest in Shen Feng, Xu Xiujie would definitely not have spoken so courteously just now.

However, not long ago, during the medical competition, and in front of the cameras, Shen Feng inserted the needles, and the Martial Arts World forces behind the Xu Family estimated, from the amplitude of the trembling of the silver needles, that Shen Feng's cultivation was below the Innate yet possibly around the Ninth to Tenth Layer of the Acquired State.

Therefore, Xu Xiujie knew that his own cultivation might not compare to Shen Feng's, but this was the Xu Family's territory, and today, not only had the forces behind the Xu Family arrived here, but an even more powerful presence had as well.

The force controlling the Xu Family was called Ice Cloud Valley.

Xu Xiujie learned from the current Valley Master of Ice Cloud Valley that the powerful sects which vanished thousands of years ago had all re-emerged. From now on, the entire world would undergo earth-shattering changes.

Ice Cloud Valley had some connection with one of those formidable sects from thousands of years ago. Now, an elder of that sect was inside the manor, and that was why Xu Xiujie dared to be so arrogant.

Officials from the Ice Cloud Valley and the elder from that sect had all hurried over to the Capital City overnight; they were also somewhat interested in the medical heritage that Shen Feng possessed. After learning that Shen Feng had returned to the Capital City, they too, rushed over in the middle of the night.

After all, Shen Feng had arrived in Capital City by plane, and for some powerful families with immense influence, finding Shen Feng's whereabouts through the airline companies was not difficult.

Originally, Xu Xiujie thought that Shen Feng would not dare to be too presumptuous on the Xu Family's grounds, but the result vastly exceeded his expectations. This young man didn't put him in his eyes at all! Yet he himself was no match, especially with people like Xu Huifang and others by his side! If he dared to strike first now, most likely his only fate would be to be beaten.

While Xu Xiujie's face showed a mix of changing expressions,

a solemn-faced old man and a gloomy-eyed middle-aged man, dressed in coarse clothes and mourning attire, quickly came out from the manor.

The old man was Xu Nanzhou, the brother of Xu Nansheng and the current Family Head of the Xu Family, while the middle-aged man was his son, Xu Guanyao, the one who would soon become the next Family Head of the Xu Family.

Xu Nanzhou and Xu Guanyao came to Xu Xiujie's side.

Seeing his grandfather and father arrive, Xu Xiujie finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly repeated Shen Feng's disrespectful words, which made Xu Nanzhou and Xu Guanyao's eyes show a flare of anger.

Xu Nanzhou's gaze lingered on Shen Feng for only two seconds before he turned to Xu Nansheng and said, "Is this how you discipline this kid? Don't forget, half of the blood in his body is from our Xu Family."

Xu Guanyao went on to say, "What's wrong with making him crawl in on his knees? If he could have come here earlier, his medical skills might have allowed the old man to live a few more years. He is indeed indirectly responsible for the old man's death. There is no doubt about that. Making him crawl on his knees to the old man's body is giving him a chance for redemption."

Listening to the Xu Family's twisted logic, Shen Feng's smile grew even colder.

When Xu Guanyao noticed Shen Feng's gaze fixed on him, for some reason, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, but Shen Feng was not radiating any presence, and he could not sense a trace of Shen Feng's aura.

Xu Nansheng's eyebrows were tightly furrowed as he shouted, "Xu Nanzhou, don't take that high and mighty attitude with me. I came here today just to kowtow a few times."

"Feng is with us. He has no ties to your Xu Family. What have you ever done for Feng? Why should he crawl in on his knees? He owes nothing to your Xu Family."

Having said this,

Xu Nansheng completely ignored Xu Nanzhou and the others, attempting to lead Xu Huifang and the rest directly into the manor.

Xu Nanzhou, Xu Guanyao, and Xu Xiujie's aura began to stir subtly, and as they were about to stop them,

a white figure floated over from within the manor.

The person who arrived was a handsome middle-aged man, who faintly emitted the aura of the Initial Stage of Foundation Establishment. He was Wu Ruicheng, the current Valley Master of Ice Cloud Valley.

Once, in his youth,

Wu Ruicheng was passionately devoted to Xu Huifang.

Unfortunately, back then Xu Huifang only saw Wu Ruicheng as a brother.

Originally, Xu Huifang rejected the marriage proposal with Wu Ruicheng, leading to some unfavorable opinions from Ice Cloud Valley.

However, at that time, Wu Ruicheng actually gave Xu Huifang a Jade Pendant, an ancient piece that could conceal one's cultivation, and helped her in many other ways.

If it hadn't been for the blood-draining incident that occurred just after Shen Feng was born, perhaps her true cultivation level and talent wouldn't have been revealed under the concealment of the Jade Pendant.

Over the years,

Wu Ruicheng had long stopped caring about Xu Huifang's affairs. Yet, seeing her again after so many years, a hint of surprise emerged in his eyes; Xu Huifang was even more beautiful than before, with an even greater charm about her.

Remembering how Xu Huifang had cruelly rejected him in the past made him furiously think he had been too foolish back then. Now, as the Valley Master of Ice Cloud Valley, he saw it as the most disgraceful episode in his life.

A thought suddenly sprang to Wu Ruicheng's mind; he could take Xu Huifang as a concubine now. After all, her appearance was so beautiful and her demeanor top-notch.

Wu Ruicheng waved his hand towards Xu Nanzhou and the others, saying, "Step aside."

Then, he approached Xu Huifang with polite manners, smiled, and said, "Huifang, how many years has it been since we last saw each other? I've heard quite a few things about you. Back then you rejected me for someone else, but now I think you don't have a reason to reject me anymore, right? Become my woman, and I guarantee no one will dare touch a hair on your head."

In front of Xu Huifang, he had always been straightforward, so he still wanted to communicate with Xu Huifang in the same way.

With an apologetic tone, Xu Huifang said, "Big brother Wu, it has indeed been many years since we've seen each other."

"You helped me a lot in the past, and I'm truly grateful to you. But from the beginning to the end, I have only seen you as a brother."

Upon hearing this,

Wu Ruicheng's face stiffened. He hadn't expected Xu Huifang to reject him so thoroughly and directly, and rage completely spread throughout his body.

Shen Feng, frowning nearby, wondered how someone dared to set their sights on his mother?

This man once helped his mother?

Shen Feng always disliked being indebted to others, so he let his Perceptive Force sweep across Wu Ruicheng's body.

Of course, Wu Ruicheng didn't feel anything.

Shen Feng sensed that Wu Ruicheng was only an accumulation of energy away from breaking through to the Middle Stage of the Foundation Establishment.

With just the accumulation of energy, he would definitely be able to quickly progress to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment.

While no one was paying attention to Shen Feng, three Mysterious Qi Pills appeared in his hand.

With these three Mysterious Qi Pills, Wu Ruicheng would have enough to break through to the Middle Stage.

Shen Feng then tossed the three Mysterious Qi Pills to Wu Ruicheng and said indifferently, "Take these three pills, and you can easily reach the next level. Let's call it even between you and my mother from here on out."

Catching the three Mysterious Qi Pills subconsciously, Wu Ruicheng's expression changed drastically. Was this young man making fun of him, the Valley Master? But as he felt the thick and pure medicinal power within the Mysterious Qi Pills, he stood rooted to the spot, momentarily holding his breath.
