Medical and Martial God

”Qin Qing, you have some nerve!” Ye Tianming shouted, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth as he angrily rose to his feet. ”You two are hostages, and we are under Kristina, members of the three Judicator Families. How dare you let Leng Yue attack us? Are you looking for a death wish?”

Truthfully, from the very beginning, Ye Tianming, the Master of the Long Family, and everyone from the Ye and Long Families had never taken Leng Yue seriously. They hadn’t even given her a proper glance. Yet this woman they disdained was so powerful that the mere thought of her made their hearts tremble.

However, they hadn’t given up hope. This was Biluo Island, the territory of the three Judicator Families, and Qin Qing and Leng Yue were hostages!

”Leng Yue, you are deep within Biluo Island, imprisoned in this filthy land called the Abandoned City. You still dare to oppose the three Judicator Families?” the Master of the Long Family glared and chided her. ”Aren’t you afraid I’ll tell the Princess to send someone to kill you?” He was trying to use Kristina to intimidate Leng Yue, hoping to stop her from interfering in their affairs with Qin Qing.

Ye Tianming instantly understood his intent. ”I’m giving you a chance to turn over a new leaf,” he said. ”Side with me, and I’ll put in a good word for you with the Princess. Perhaps she’ll even let you leave Biluo Island. But if you insist on deluding yourself by protecting Qin Qing, I’ll make one phone call, and I guarantee that this day next year will be your death anniversary.”

The members of the Ye and Long Families all puffed out their chests, smirking at Leng Yue. In their eyes, Leng Yue must be terrified. After all, she had just attacked Ye Tianming and the Master of the Long Family, both members of the Judicator Families. To save her own life, she would surely betray Qin Qing and side with them.

”Did my punch happen to connect with your IQs?” Leng Yue asked, looking at Ye Tianming and the Master of the Long Family as if they were idiots.

The two men were stunned for a moment, not understanding. Ye Tianming asked, ”What do you mean?”

Leng Yue shrugged. ”I mean, you can call Kristina right now and have her send someone to kill me.”

Is she really that loyal? Ye Tianming and the Master of the Long Family exchanged a glance. They truly hadn’t expected Leng Yue to be so devoted to Qin Qing.

”Stubborn fool!” Ye Tianming snorted coldly and took out his cell phone. ”Since you’re seeking death, I’ll grant your wish!”

Saying this, he dialed Xue Man’s number. He didn’t have Kristina’s contact information, but he had gotten Xue Man’s number from the driver on the way here. However, the call didn’t go through.

”Oh, I forgot to remind you,” Leng Yue said. ”Your cell phones won’t work on Biluo Island. To call Kristina, you need a special phone from the Eternal Kingdom.”

Ye Tianming and the Master of the Long Family were instantly mortified. After all that confident threatening, they couldn’t even make a phone call.

”Here, let me help you,” Leng Yue said. She took out the Eternal Kingdom phone Xue Man had given her and Qin Qing, dialed Xue Man’s number, and handed it to Ye Tianming. ”I’ve got Xue Man on the line. You can talk to her now.”

”Hah, you’re arrogant. It seems you really aren’t afraid of death,” Ye Tianming snorted. He took the phone, which had just connected. ”Hello, this is Ye Tianming...”

”What is it?” Xue Man asked.

”As hostages, Qin Qing and Leng Yue dared to attack me and Long Tianba! How can you tolerate this?” Ye Tianming goaded.

”Do you know why An Bai and I didn’t go with you?” Xue Man asked.

Ye Tianming was stunned. ”Why?”

”Because if we had, we would have been beaten too.”

Ye Tianming was speechless.

”A while ago, Qin Qing and Leng Yue killed over four thousand Martial Artists from the Eternal Kingdom,” Xue Man continued. ”Not only did Princess Kristina’s father not dare to blame them, he even personally apologized.”

With that, she hung up.

Ye Tianming stared blankly at the phone, his expression like he’d been struck by lightning, his mind buzzing. The Martial Artists from the Long and Ye Families had also heard Xue Man’s words, and their expressions mirrored his own. They were all stunned silent by what she had said.

They were hostages who had killed over four thousand Martial Artists of the Eternal Kingdom. Yet, instead of being punished, even Princess Kristina’s father had personally come to apologize. Are these people really hostages? They’re the damn kidnappers!

”Kneel,” Qin Qing said, her face devoid of emotion.

THUD!

Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Tianming, the Master of the Long Family, and every member of the Ye and Long Families dropped to their knees in perfect unison. They had no choice but to kneel, nor did they dare to refuse. If Qin Qing killed them right now, the three Judicator Families probably wouldn’t dare say a word. After all, it seemed even Princess Kristina’s father was afraid of provoking her.

”Next time I see Kristina, I will be sure to thank her for delivering you into my hands,” Qin Qing said coldly, walking up to the kneeling families.

”What do you mean?” Ye Tianming asked.

The temperature on Qin Qing’s face plummeted. ”Don’t you know,” she said, her voice like ice, ”that I hate you even more than Ye Xiu does?

”Ten years ago, I was just a fifteen-year-old girl. It was you who forced me to endure a darkness no one should have to bear at that age.

”When I had to pick up the mangled bodies of Ye Xiu’s mother and maternal grandparents piece by piece with my own hands and put them into bags, I swore that one day I would personally chop up the murderers and offer them as a sacrifice to appease the Undead.”

Hearing this, Ye Tianming, the Master of the Long Family, and all the others shuddered in fear. From her words, they understood that she fully intended to kill them.

Qin Qing continued, ”Unfortunately, I was too weak back then, too frail to fight you on my own.

”So I endured. I covertly gathered evidence of the frame-ups you orchestrated against Ye Xiu, hoping to first clear his name and bring him back, because as one girl, I was no match for all of you!

”To stop my investigation, you subjected me to ten years of assassinations, poisonings, car accidents, staged mishaps, frame-ups, and oppression...

”Ten years! Do you have any idea how I survived those ten years?

”I was on high alert every single day. I slept with one eye open, terrified I wouldn’t wake up, terrified I wouldn’t be able to clear Ye Xiu’s name, terrified I wouldn’t be able to help him get his revenge...”

Leng Yue was shocked. No wonder the Young Master had fought for ten years, building the fearsome reputation of Huang Quan, yet never touched another woman. He wouldn’t even give a world-class beauty like Gong Jin a second glance; his heart was solely focused on Qin Qing. So this is how much she has done and endured for him. The Young Mistress truly deserves his lifelong protection! At that moment, Leng Yue finally acknowledged Qin Qing as her Young Mistress from the bottom of her heart. Before, she had only respected her out of deference to Ye Xiu.

”I’m glad I survived,” Qin Qing said, a sudden smile spreading across her face, brimming with pride. ”I survived until Ye Xiu came back.

”And he didn’t disappoint me. He returned with ten years of repressed hatred, and with the immense martial power, vast wealth, and massive influence he had built up over that decade.

”I thought then that we could finally annihilate all of you instigators.

”Unexpectedly, Ye Xiu wanted to toy with you.

”I didn’t try to change his mind. Even though I wanted nothing more than to kill you all, I understood his reasons.

”So when I was by his side, I fully supported his game of tormenting you.”

At this, Qin Qing kicked the Master of the Long Family over, stomped on his chest, and snarled, ”But things are different now. As long as I don’t kill you, Ye Xiu will never see or know how I torture you.

”So, once again, welcome to Hell!”

Hearing this, Ye Tianming, the Master of the Long Family, and all the others finally understood what Qin Qing had meant when she first greeted them with ”welcome to Hell.” Their faces turned deathly pale, and their bodies began to tremble uncontrollably with fear. The unknown was what was truly terrifying. They couldn’t imagine how she would torment them, which only deepened their dread.
