Medical Sage

The whole grand hall was silent, with almost everyone present stunned and slack-jawed by the astonishing scene before them. Their faces were blank, cold sweat streaming down... Whether it was the experts from the Golden Toad Cave or the envoy Luo Quan from Red Lion Cave, all were the same.

Particularly Hu Shan and Luo Quan from Red Lion Cave, both were in a perpetual state of stupor, clearly unable to extricate themselves from the horrifying scene in front of them.

Because they were well aware, being one the younger brother of Hu Jiang and the other a colleague who had dealt with him for countless years, how could they not understand the true combat power of Hu Jiang, regarded as a notorious war general even within Red Lion Cave?

Even Luo Quan, as one of the four protectors of Red Lion Cave and a formidable being at the peak of the Qi Refining Eighth Layer, knew very well that even if he personally engaged, he could at most achieve a forty-sixty split in combat power against Hu Jiang!

In other words, the gap in strength and actual combat power between them was truly minimal, but now?

But now who could have anticipated that within the Golden Toad Cave, which they originally looked down upon, a young human man appearing to be in his twenties or thirties could, with such terrifying poise, incapacitate Hu Jiang with a single strike!

Upon realizing this, Hu Shan and Luo Quan couldn’t help but tremble as they looked at Chen Fei, with cold sweat pouring out like a spring, soaking their garments.

Because they knew well that if even Hu Jiang couldn’t withstand a single move from the other party, then their chances were even slimmer!

As one of the four protectors of Red Lion Cave, Luo Quan, at the peak of the Qi Refining Eighth Layer, might last a bit longer, but the question was, what difference would it make?

The other experts in the grand hall from Golden Toad Cave, including Deputy Cave Master Mon Yi, all slightly lowered their heads, eyebrows drooping, their gazes toward Chen Fei filled with intense reverence, fear, and astonishment.

What they revered and feared was, of course, our formidable Chen Fei, Young Master Chen’s terrifying strength. Even the notorious war general of Red Lion Cave, Hu Jiang, couldn’t withstand a single move from him—this was simply surreal! And what does such surrealism signify?

It signifies that this human might indeed be a Cave Master-level expert at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer? If not, how else could he achieve such a shocking level of power?

And with this thought, they finally began to recognize just how frightening the young human standing before them truly was.

After all, a Cave Master level at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer! If their Golden Toad Cave could possess such a level of expert, how could they be reduced to being so openly oppressed by Red Lion Cave without the power to retaliate, forced to swallow the bitter pill quietly...?

All of this was because of those few words!

Cave Master level at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer, or Second Level Late Stage Beast.

And thinking this far, Mon Yi finally began to understand why the black broken arrowhead, which their Cave Master King of Gilded Toads regarded as a treasure, mysteriously appeared in Chen Fei’s hand.

Perhaps, their Cave Master was no longer around? But then, is this young man truly the one they once hunted down?

How long has it been, and he’s already become this terrifyingly powerful! If this fact is true, then this young man’s talent and potential are truly frightening.

At such a young age, seemingly only in his twenties, to have combat power capable of slaying the King of Gilded Toads, and now to strike down the notorious war general of Red Lion Cave with a single blow, rendering him unconscious—how astounding is that?

It’s unimaginable what kind of powerful and terrifying figure this person might become with more time!

Thinking this, Mon Yi suddenly found his legs weak, for he had also participated in the siege and pursuit of Chen Fei before! If this nobleman was now looking to settle scores, then...

His eyes grew more fearful, perspiration drenching his head, his body trembling uncontrollably.

Chen Fei, however, remained indifferent to the psychological turmoil of so many people in the grand hall, casually gazing at Luo Quan and the others from Red Lion Cave.

”L... Lord, who are you really? We are merely here as Red Lion Cave’s emissaries, delivering a message, with no other intentions...”

Under Chen Fei’s calm gaze, Luo Quan, one of the four protectors of Red Lion Cave, seemed to be struck by lightning, his face pale as he stammered towards Chen Fei.

Now weakened, and the other party’s strikes being so ferocious, he had no choice but to be afraid.

”Weren’t you different before?” Upon hearing this, our Chen Fei, Young Master Chen, remarked with a hint of a smirk. Previously, Luo Quan, confident in his identity from Red Lion Cave and mighty at the peak of the Qi Refining Eighth Layer, had an overbearing aura, bossing around with reckless flamboyance, but now?

He wondered if now, the other might still demand him to kneel, kowtow thirty-six times, or crawl beneath him?

”No, Lord, I, I...”

Hearing our Chen Fei, Young Master Chen’s teasing words, Luo Quan could only cry miserably inside.

How could he have known that in the Golden Toad Cave, obviously ruled by the King of Gilded Toads, there would suddenly emerge such a terrifyingly powerful human cultivator?

If he had known, at least those outrageous words he never would have dared to voice!

”L... Lord, earlier I was blind and failed to recognize your greatness, punishment is deserved, deserved...” Luo Quan said with forced laughter, then surprisingly slapped himself on the face with a resounding ’smack’.

The slap naturally left everyone present momentarily stunned, their faces filled with astonishment!

Because, no matter how you put it, Luo Quan is one of the four great protectors of Red Lion Cave, a formidable Peak of Qi Refining Eighth Layer cultivator, right?

Yet now? Now he has actually humbled himself to this extent, slapping himself in the face... It clearly shows how terribly frightened he is by Chen Fei, Young Master Chen.

”You, you really know when to hold on and when to let go.” Seeing this scene, even though Chen Fei, Young Master Chen, originally had some intent to pursue the other party’s arrogance, now he could only shake his head and let it go.

Otherwise, it would make him seem too petty. It’s unnecessary.

”No, no, if you make a mistake, you should be punished... Sir, about today’s matter, I’m not sure how I should report it when I return?”

Hearing this, Luo Quan breathed a sigh of relief. Although slapping himself was embarrassing, it was better than kneeling, kowtowing, or crawling. He was worried the other party might take his earlier words seriously!

After all, if the other party could easily inflict heavy injuries on Hu Jiang, what meaning would there be in blindly bringing up Red Lion Cave now? It might even be counterproductive!

To survive to his age at the bottom level of the Cultivation World, how many could afford to be dull-witted or foolish? Could they have survived till today being that way?

”Isn’t it simple? Just report everything as it is, but...”

At this point, Chen Fei, Young Master Chen, paused slightly, and then his dark eyes, clear as glazed glass, flashed with a sharp light. He spoke slowly: ”However, you can mention that starting today, Golden Toad Cave will be changing its name.”

”Change, change its name?”

Upon hearing this, the hall erupted in an uproar almost immediately! Everyone’s faces showed a look of trembling and fear.

Because if this cave changed its name, wouldn’t it mean a change of power?

Previously, the name Golden Toad Cave represented the King of Gilded Toads, and now, if Chen Fei intended to change the name representing the King of Gilded Toads, he must have to eliminate the King of Gilded Toads first!

And to eliminate the King of Gilded Toads... as soon as the thought emerged, Luo Quan couldn’t help but exchange a glance with his companion Hu Shan, reading the implications in each other’s eyes.

This Golden Toad Cave, it seems, is about to undergo a drastic change.

”Yes, Sir, I will report this truthfully upon my return.” Luo Quan then immediately replied quickly, wishing to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.

Mainly because, generally speaking, if there’s going to be a drastic change, wouldn’t it often come with slaughter and bloodshed?

They are not from Golden Toad Cave, so shedding blood here would be very disadvantageous for them.

”You may leave.” Chen Fei naturally didn’t bother talking to them much. What he needed to do now was to take Golden Toad Cave as quickly as possible. As for Red Lion Cave, even if they learned of the changes here, what could they do?

He originally intended for them to find out! After all, they are neighbors, and it’s only polite to give them a heads up.

”Yes, Sir. We will leave immediately.” Upon hearing this, Luo Quan responded without hesitation. The lightly injured Hu Shan quickly lifted his unconscious brother, and the three of them swiftly exited the hall.

After this, the remaining experts in Golden Toad Cave within the hall began to panic, feeling very complex and somber.

After all, they weren’t deaf, so how could they not have heard what Chen Fei said earlier?

Is Golden Toad Cave really going to be renamed?

Bang!

Rumble...

After driving the Red Lion Cave envoys away, Chen Fei, Young Master Chen, scanned the audience with an indifferent gaze, and then suddenly raised his hand. A terrifying Sword Qi of Sanyang True Fire directly shattered the Cave Master’s chair, the symbol of the highest authority, into pieces within the hall.

The deafening sound was extremely piercing and also made everyone’s heart in the hall feel as though it was being tightly squeezed, breathing became difficult, and the atmosphere suddenly solidified at that moment.

”You should recognize this thing, right?” At this moment, Chen Fei, Young Master Chen, waved his hand again, and a cold corpse appeared before everyone’s eyes, falling to the ground with a thud, raising some dust.

”Hiss! That, that, that is!?”

”Is it the Lord Cave Master?”

”Has the Lord Cave Master died? At his hands?”

…

Everyone present instantly showed drastic changes in their expressions, their eyes filled with shock!
