Medical and Martial God

Ye Xiu found An Dongye’s move quite impressive, not because it could simultaneously deceive Lin Mu and the civilian martial artists into going to Nameless Island to die.

In fact, the task of Lin Mu and the civilian martial artists was simply to buy time. Whether or not they eliminate the enemy is secondary, as long as they can delay until the martial artists’ allied forces, the Heavenly Sect, Hell’s Gate, the Restorer Alliance, the Prisoners’ Descendants Alliance, and Lin Feng finish their wars on the various islands, and gather forces at Xiaoyao Island.

Moreover, gathering Lin Mu and so many civilian martial artists on Nameless Island means that the Blood Cloth Guards and the 101st Squad would take a long time to kill them all.

This would also affect the progress of ’Spiritual Energy Infusion’.

In short, An Dongye’s move is like taking off your pants to fart — unnecessary!

Ye Xiu thought An Dongye’s move brilliant because it made him realize he could use this to sneak into the Royal Palace.

”Once the King knows that Lin Mu and the army of civilian martial artists are done for, he’ll definitely look for Kristina to enter the Royal Palace to discuss strategies. As the little princess’s guard, I can get in with Kristina.”

”But, how can I make sure the King learns about Lin Mu and the civilian martial artists’ defeat without leaving traces?”

Ye Xiu pondered deeply!

After thinking for a full 15 minutes, he sent a message to Qin Qing:

”Order the four armies to march flamboyantly towards the Royal City and fiercely attack ’Red Water City’; make as much noise as possible.”

Qin Qing: ”What mischief are you up to now?”

Ye Xiu immediately explained his plan to Qin Qing.

The Royal City has four Defensive Cities, standing in the east, west, south, and north positions to guard the Royal City.

’Red Water City’ is one of the four Defensive Cities.

As long as the four armies attack Red Water City, the King will infer that Lin Mu and the civilian martial artists have been annihilated.

The enemy is at the Defensive City gates; how can the King not be anxious?

How can he not consult with Kristina for a strategy?

Qin Qing: ”Understood, I will immediately assemble the troops, and at the latest, they will arrive under Red Water City’s walls by midnight tonight!”

Ye Xiu hung up the phone, put away his mobile, and returned to the classroom, just about to continue his nap when Kristina asked:

”Why did you take so long in the bathroom?”

Ye Xiu replied dismissively: ”I’ve been constipated lately, it took a little longer, really, I have evidence; if you don’t believe me, you can check?”

Kristina felt exasperated; did you really not flush after using the toilet?

However, at this moment, Kristina suddenly realized that Lei Xiaoming was becoming more and more like Ye Xiu, completely lacking propriety.

Then the school bell rang.

Kristina stood up:

”Let’s go. There are no classes this afternoon, let’s grab something at the canteen, then head to my place in the Royal City. You’ll stay there from now on, focus on cultivating the Sacrificial Heart Imprint.”

Kristina got up to leave.

”Okay!” Ye Xiu followed her.

Seeing the two leaving like this, the vice-dean teaching at the podium felt a surge of frustration as if choking on blood.

I haven’t even dismissed the class yet, and you’re leaving? Do I not deserve any respect?

Ye Xiu and Kristina didn’t care about the vice-dean’s inner turmoil.

The two left the teaching building and were about to head to the cafeteria, when suddenly they spotted a group of people holding weapons, standing outside the building.

Leading them was none other than Gongsun Shu.

Gongsun Shu was even pushing a wheelchair with Lei Xiaoming’s grandfather, Lei Busi, sitting on it!

”Subordinate Gongsun Shu, pays respects to the Little Princess.” Gongsun Shu knelt on one knee.

The other nineteen surrounding Ye Xiu and Kristina also knelt on one knee.

”Rise!”

Kristina nodded and asked:

”Gongsun Shu, what is the meaning of this?”

Gongsun Shu stood up and said: ”Little Princess, this morning you promised at the school gate that the Gongsun, Zhuge, and Sha families could retaliate against Lei Xiaoming at will. I and these twenty-nine people are all Third Realm War Gods, on par with Lei Xiaoming, which can’t be considered bullying; as for Lei Busi, he is simply a means for us to retaliate against Lei Xiaoming, and there was no prohibition from you against our three families doing this.”

Kristina shrugged: ”Suit yourselves!”

She then stepped aside, portraying an onlooker’s demeanor.

Seeing this, Gongsun Shu and the twenty-nine Third Realm War Gods felt relieved and excited. Previously, they were worried that Kristina might protect ’Lei Xiaoming’ out of partiality, and all their efforts would be in vain!

To their surprise, Kristina didn’t care!

”Hahaha...”

Gongsun Shu couldn’t help but laugh, adopting a confident attitude and disdainfully regarding Ye Xiu, saying:

”Lei Xiaoming, aren’t you arrogant? Didn’t you claim you could defeat those of the same level in seconds? Come on, let’s see how you take down thirty Third Realm War Gods.”

Ye Xiu’s face was now as grim as it could be, his eyes flickering with killing intent, restrained yet ready to unleash.

He’s not afraid of the thirty Third Realm warriors; even if ’Lei Xiaoming’ can’t win, he could always awaken again.

But Gongsun Shu had taken Lei Busi hostage, which made him hesitant.

After all, he is currently ’Lei Xiaoming,’ and Lei Busi is Lei Xiaoming’s grandfather. If he disregards Lei Busi’s life and fights Gongsun Shu’s thirty men, how would Kristina view it?

Would she think he’s heartless and ungrateful, forsaking kin?

If, because of this, she dismisses him as her guard, he wouldn’t be able to openly enter the Royal Palace to find the Shocking God and Demon Formation’s base.

”Gongsun Shu, thirty of you against one of me, that’s already unjust, and yet you’ve brought a hostage to restrain me. Have you no shame?”

Ye Xiu tried goading and morally pressuring Gongsun Shu to abandon Lei Busi as a hostage.

”Shame?”

Gongsun Shu’s expression twisted, clenching his teeth, he said:

”The shame of our Gongsun, Zhuge, and Sha families has long been ground into the dirt by you; just to kill you and regain our honor, our three families are willing to do anything.”

Ye Xiu’s face grew more somber. As Lei Xiaoming, facing thirty of the same rank, rescuing Lei Busi was indeed extremely difficult.

Kristina watched Ye Xiu with a look of amusement, curious to see how ’Lei Xiaoming’ would resolve this crisis.

In her opinion, if it were Ye Xiu facing such a crisis, he would undoubtedly handle it with ease.

If Lei Xiaoming could also do it, then Lei Xiaoming is indeed worth cultivating.

”Xiaoming!”

At this moment, Lei Busi spoke:

”I’m old and already disabled, not long for this world. You don’t need to throw your life away for me. You should leave quickly, and when you are stronger, avenge me later.”

Actually, Lei Busi didn’t care about Ye Xiu’s life. He knew this Lei Xiaoming before him wasn’t his grandson, the real Lei Xiaoming.

But he worried that after this imposter died, his real grandson might face danger.

So he urged Ye Xiu to not worry about him and to leave quickly!

”I won’t abandon you to save myself,” Ye Xiu said, unwaveringly.

Lei Busi was momentarily stunned, feeling a trace of emotion. This imposter grandson was willing to forsake his own escape for him, showing he wasn’t evil.

”Oh, oh, how touching!”

Gongsun Shu said exaggeratedly, suddenly drawing his knife and stabbing it into Lei Busi’s right thigh, saying:

”Lei Xiaoming, since you can’t bear to abandon your grandfather, then surrender obediently, or else I’ll slice your grandfather into pieces right before your eyes.
