I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s

Chapter 909: Chapter 908: Cleared Out

Xing Jun has already missed the optimal time for cultivation, and even with good spirit, large families won’t take him in. Some medium and small families and schools may accept him, but mostly to ensure the transmission of a high-quality next generation.

Qingyu School has always valued quality over quantity, and anyone accepted is bound to have some special skills. So if Qingyu is recruiting Xing Jun for the sake of the next generation, it doesn’t make sense, especially since there aren’t even any women of his age to pass on the line.

The only possibility is that Beisitian truly values Xing Jun and plans to take him into Qingyu School.

Everyone secretly speculates about Beisitian’s mindset and intentions, but they can’t figure it out. Even if the boy becomes skilled, he’ll be almost forty when he’s successful.

Putting Xing Jun’s matter aside for now seems to be Qingyu’s business. The focus now is on what Hawkeye plans to do and whether it aligns with Shi Family’s upcoming goals.

Zhou Tongxuan said, ”We’ve already learned the locations of the nearest blood circles from Qing Yan people. Three of them hold Shi Family members, but we haven’t confirmed if all Shi Family members are there yet.”

Shi Jiantong and his fellows immediately rejoiced; the safety of their family members is their utmost priority!

”Please tell us the exact locations,” Shi Jiantong said, unable to suppress a slight smile on his otherwise serious face.

Zhou Tongxuan smiled, ”Don’t worry. Our Hawkeye’s vanguard has already gone ahead, but due to manpower issues, they await orders. Would Mr. Shi be able to find seven to eight people skilled in fighting talismans to join us?”

Shi Jiantong was overjoyed. With Hawkeye’s assistance, it would be even more secure. ”I’ll find someone right away!”

Three large trucks could easily carry everyone, including the women, who were to face punishment. However, it seemed they too were affected by harmful influences and would need treatment first.

The small village became utterly deserted in an instant after being bustling just a moment before.

Xing Jun sat in the car, looking at the village where he lived for a year, without nostalgia. His only memory here was meeting Sister Bei.

She said, a big family awaits your joining.

But Xing Jun knew that with his personality, he was unlikely to fit into this big family. After his parents’ successive passing, family, to him, existed only in imagination.

Letting out a faint sigh, Xing Jun turned away, his eyes filled with confusion as the car bumped along the road.

The three trucks left the village and took the mountain road, while four jeeps headed deeper into the mountains.

In the jeep were either Shi Family elites or Hawkeye elites, with Qingyu represented by Tian Zhi.

Nonetheless, no one deliberately overlooked Tian Zhi’s strength; among them, only he and Zhou Tongxuan could form Spiritual Talismans.

Indeed, there were two in Hawkeye’s Pioneer Team capable of forming Spiritual Talismans, the team leader Chen Shuwei and deputy Zhou Tongxuan.

Tian Zhi was on this trip to hone his fighting talisman skills. His master advised that given capability allowances, one should develop comprehensively.

As an Inheritor Disciple, Tian Zhi felt that if one aspect were too weak, it would affect overall strength, so even when facing certain bottlenecks in Xuan Talisman, he would not relent in improving his fighting talisman skills.

Sometimes the car would weave through forests, forging a direct path when no road was available, and sometimes wading through water. The journey was tough and lengthy; it took over four hours to reach the next blood circle, even taking shortcuts.

Shi Jianhua gazed at the sky, ”You say, where have those three idiots Shi Jianwen wandered off to?”

Shi Jiantong remained silent; they navigated using maps and had to backtrack multiple times due to wrong routes, whereas Shi Jianhua was likely roaming aimlessly in the mountains now.

Before arriving, Shi Jiantong had already planned with Shi Zhongli to send people over to search as soon as the Shi Family people returned and got reorganized.

Fourteen Shi Family members were held here; despite many young and robust lads, their condition was not favorable.

Guards here were all men, not women, and seemed rather unscrupulous, drinking and playing cards upon arrival.

If not for orders from above forbidding disturbance, the women here would definitely endure humiliation. When collecting blood, a sound mental state was required, for if too dispirited or traumatized, it would significantly affect blood quality.

Eleven men guarded the place, armed with clubs and sticks, and two even had control knives.

Even if Shi Jianwen’s three arrived, aside from an additional three blood banks, their presence was futile. Shi Jiantong was quite relieved that the distance between here and the village where they were held was quite far.

The eight Shi Family members, together with five Hawkeye people and Tian Zhi, quickly subdued them and found their medicine for relieving harmful influences to keep in reserve.

Besides Shi Family members, there were other children in the village and a few scattered adults, both men, and women.

After giving the guarding men a dose of Xuan Talisman to put them to sleep, it was only a matter of waiting for the backup team to take them away, and they could proceed to the next blood circle location.

So, in just over seven days in the mountains, they dismantled five blood circles, rescued all Shi Family members and countless children.

Though not a victory, it dealt a significant blow to Qing Yan. Unfortunately, as the blood collection site was the first destroyed, the other side grew cautious, rendering known codes ineffective.

After the operation concluded, Xing Jun traveled to Beijing with Hawkeye, while Tian Zhi did not accompany them. He had other tasks to attend to, entrusted to Zhou Tongxuan.

As they were equals, Zhou Tongxuan treated Tian Zhi with high respect, regardless of his young age.

It was Zhou Tongxuan’s first time visiting Qingyu’s small courtyard; he hadn’t expected it to be a place full of life, assuming it would be a grand mansion that invoked fear.

Xing Jun stood at the courtyard gate, feeling very conflicted. Whether coming here was right or wrong, he had pondered not coming; but since he agreed, and if he didn’t come, he would have to accept the work arranged by Hawkeye.

He didn’t object to work; he just didn’t like being bound by strangers.

Zhou Tongxuan knocked on the gate, and soon someone came to open it—a teenager with clear features, quite handsome.

”Who are you?”
