Medical Sage

At the crime scene on Five Peaks Mountain, in that rural courtyard, the moonlight spilled like mercury, revealing a grim scene filled with fresh blood and filth everywhere! Old and young alike, their withered bodies lay scattered around, making Chen Fei frown.

”Damn thing...” Chen Fei’s jet-black, glassy eyes flashed with a cold gleam. He crouched down, applied slight pressure on the blood on the ground with his fingers, and rubbed some onto his hand.

”Mr. Chen, be careful, the blood seems poisoned.” Seeing this, Director Qin Bin couldn’t help but quietly remind him. Previously, their officers did the same and ended up poisoned, taking a long time to recover...

”It’s nothing...” However, Chen Fei just casually shook his head. He knew that the so-called poison was merely the corpse qi naturally emitted by a hairless ghoul. Ordinary people couldn’t withstand it, but to him, it was completely harmless.

He stretched out his hand.

There was a faint sound.

A subtle curse seal directly surged into the blood clump.

Chen Fei’s fingertip immediately emitted a grayish-white glow.

Within that glow, a mystical rune floated in the air.

Liao Hua, Qin Bin, and the captain and members of the Chengyang County Criminal Investigation Team were all startled, their eyes widened and expression frozen.

”Liao, Secretary Liao... what, what is that!?” Qin Bin, like a fool, asked Liao Hua beside him, trembling all over. But little did he know, Liao Hua’s reaction wasn’t any better...

”Who do you expect me to ask? Turns out Chen Fei, Mr. Chen, has such abilities... Is he one of those immortals or extraordinary people from novels and TV? This is just too incredible!” Liao Hua’s mind was filled with bewilderment and shock, his eyes fixed on Chen Fei, utterly unsettled.

And now he finally understood why even the mighty Tiger of Lin Nan had to respectfully address Chen Fei, Mr. Chen, as the main instructor, behaving completely submissively around him...

Why his teacher, Huang Tao, almost revered him as if he were a deity or a Bodhisattva.

The respect and caution seemed a bit excessive.

But looking at it now, how is that excessive!

Such a person, to put it bluntly, is not even human!

Whoosh!

At this moment, that glowing rune suddenly shot out, disappearing swiftly into the overgrown woodland outside the courtyard, extending toward the depths of the mountain forest.

”Still in the mountains?” Chen Fei was slightly taken aback, then a cold smile appeared on his face. He said, ”Secretary Liao, want to take a look? Let me broaden your horizon.”

”Ah?” Secretary Liao cried out in surprise, almost having his scalp tingle from Chen Fei’s words.

But after a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, ”Let’s go! I want to see what that beast actually looks like, what it truly is.”

”Me, me too!” Beside him, Director Qin Bin, teeth chattering, also spoke up.

Though he was afraid, seeing Chen Fei so certain and confident, he decided to join and take a look, to see firsthand... hopefully to witness the despicable beast meet its end!

So that the victims, those innocents, can have closure in the Underworld.

”Then let’s go.” Chen Fei nodded, left the courtyard, and headed up the mountain through the overgrown forest.

Secretary Liao Hua and Director Qin Bin immediately followed.

Behind them, there were a dozen officers, each looking anxious and uneasy, holding flashlights.

Before long, they crossed from one side of Five Peaks Mountain to the other and stopped in a densely vegetated, dimly lit area. With a cold gaze, Chen Fei shouted in a certain direction.

”Come out!”

”Hiss! Hiss...”

”Roar!”

As soon as he finished speaking, two ashen shadows crawled out from the darkness, ignoring everything else, charging at Chen Fei, stirring up a foul stench in the air! It was nauseating.

”Mon, monsters! Is this the zombie?” Secretary Liao, despite having faced many storms, couldn’t help but be startled, his mouth stuttering, upon witnessing zombies for the first time with his own eyes.

The monster’s skin was pale, like the bloodless flesh of a human, yet it wore some tattered ancient armor from over a century ago in the Qing dynasty style, with a long braid, bare fists, and nails with a faint dark green glow, looking menacing and terrifying.

”Yes, that’s right. This is what it is, Secretary Liao. Previously, this creature killed so many innocents, drained their blood... but why are there two of them?”

Director Qin Bin previously encountered this Hairless Ghoul, and now with Chen Fei present, he managed to maintain some composure, without panicking.

But wasn’t there only one before? Why, why are there two now?

”Mr. Chen, watch out!” Seeing the two monsters rushing towards Chen Fei, Director Qin Bin instinctively spoke with urgency.

Bang!

At that moment, two inconspicuous strands of purple Qi descended from the sky, appearing light and effortless, yet when they landed on the two Hairless Ghouls, they became as heavy as hundred-foot mountains, directly crushing the two monsters one after the other!

Firmly pressed to the ground, unable to move.

Perhaps due to this, the once formidable and frightening two Hairless Ghouls now seemed timid and extremely scared.

Could they not be afraid? As one of the lowest-ranked Hairless Ghouls, the strength and level of these two barely reached the Qi Refining Sixth Layer, while Chen Fei? He had previously defeated those at the Fifth Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishment True Person Realm.

If he hadn’t deliberately held back, hoping to find more clues from these two Hairless Ghouls,

how could these trashy beings withstand his Qi of Purple Firmament!?

”This… this has subdued them?” Upon seeing that the monsters previously giving them such a headache, completely unmanageable, were subdued so effortlessly by Chen Fei...

Both Director Qin Bin and the frontline police officers behind him couldn’t help but have their temples throb intensely, feeling fortunate and relieved, yet shocked, and even a bit intimidated.

”Gulp~” Secretary Liao Hua couldn’t help but swallow, then cautiously approached and said, ”Mr. Chen, what should we do next!?”

”These Hairless Ghouls are the lowest tier; they don’t launch premeditated attacks, so it must be orchestrated by someone. I will investigate and find out who dares to wreak havoc in this Northern Mountain area; they truly have guts...”

With a flick of his hand, a strand of Spiritual Energy surged into the bodies of the two Hairless Ghouls. Although these creatures had limited intelligence, their basic memories would remain; looking into those memories should reveal the truth.

”Hmm?” In the next second, Chen Fei’s eyes suddenly narrowed, his gaze turning cold.

”Courting death!”

With a fierce shout, he crushed the Purple Firmament Qi further onto the two Hairless Ghouls, followed by ’bang bang’! The two creatures were smashed into pieces, and the ground fractured into a massive pit over ten meters in diameter, deeply indented with numerous cracks.

”Hiss!”

”What… what is this!?”

Secretary Liao Hua, Director Qin Bin, and a group of Chengyang County police officers had never seen such terrifying means!

Instinctively, they nearly wet their pants from fright, faces turning pale, even their scalps tingling, glancing at one another fearfully. This, is this still human? Are we dreaming!?

”Secretary Liao.” At this moment, Chen Fei suddenly spoke.

”Mr. Chen, please speak, please speak.” Jolted awake, Secretary Liao felt chills running through his body, not daring to look at Chen Fei, bowing his head with fear and reverence, trembling as he replied.

”Take your men back. This matter is somewhat unusual; I’ll handle the rest... If anyone troubles you or asks, ask Huang Tao or Zhao Zhengcheng to step in and say it’s my instruction.” Chen Fei instructed.

”Zhao, Zhao Zhengcheng!? Yes... yes! I understand, Mr. Chen, Director Qin, let’s go.” Hearing that name, Secretary Liao couldn’t help but have his eyes shrink drastically.

Who is Zhao Zhengcheng? He is the top leader in Jiangnan Province, a super boss, yet in Mr. Chen’s words, he also has to show respect, able to easily ask Zhao to intervene?

Secretary Liao trembled, quickly leading Director Qin Bin and the police down the mountain.

Since Mr. Chen has spoken, who would dare oppose!? Furthermore, observing this situation, it seems far beyond their comprehension, not something ordinary people should meddle with.

With this thought, Secretary Liao and the others descended the mountain at an even faster pace, almost like flying.

”Hope you haven’t done anything foolish, or even the Heavenly King Laozi, you’d have to pay with your life! Damn... whew!”

Once Secretary Liao and the others left, Chen Fei’s expression became fierce, glancing towards where his master Ming Daochuan was secluded, muttering coldly, filled with killing intent.

Then, suddenly, he shot skyward, rushing quickly towards the direction where his master Ming Daochuan was secluded.
