Playboy: Medical and Martial Master

Sun Zhe held Zhu Yan with one arm and tugged a rope suspending Wu Zheng with the other, drawing the attention of many Earth Martial Artists and Outer World Cultivators as they passed by like a conspicuous package.

Seeing Wu Zheng with severed hand and root, pitiful as he was being dragged like a dead dog by the rope, the crowd was exceedingly curious, abandoning their treasure hunt to follow and watch the spectacle.

”Hey, isn’t that the Sect Leader of Sky Blade Sect? Why is he in such a miserable state?”

”Miserable? Does he even deserve to be called miserable? Ask those girls who chose to commit suicide after being bullied by their Sky Blade Sect if they’re miserable!”

”Damn, this beast leader finally has his day, serves him right! But who is that masked man? His figure looks familiar.”

”Who else could it be? Who else could hold Fairy Zhu like that, and even make Fairy Zhu show meek affection, besides the Conical Hat Hero?”

”No way, didn’t he die in the lightning calamity half a month ago? How come he’s...”

”Ha, ha, did anyone see him die?”

”...”

The news that the Conical Hat Hero was still alive and had taken action against the Sky Blade Sect spread swiftly across the Burning Forest’s edge areas.

As a result, many Martial Artists and Cultivators who had already left Burning Forest to seek fortunes elsewhere turned around immediately to watch the spectacle upon hearing the news.

Gradually, a bizarre and even comical scene unfolded in a part of Burning Forest—the Conical Hat Hero, as if dangling a piece of meat with a fishing line into the water, attracted a large group of greedy little fish circling around it.

In the blink of an eye.

The sky brightened with dawn.

Sun Zhe suddenly stopped in mid-air above the forest, turning back to glance at the dense throng of Martial Artists and Cultivators behind him, shaking his head in helplessness.

”Indeed, no matter where people go, they can’t change their habit of flocking to excitement.”

Zhu Yan covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, ”If it were me, I’d also follow to watch the excitement.”

Sun Zhe bumped his forehead against hers, then looked toward the peak about several hundred meters ahead, covered by some sort of array, and asked, ”Sect Leader Wu, is your master here?”

At the other end of the rope, Wu Zheng, being suspended, used his remaining hand to grab the rope and prop himself up, his cracked lips opening, ”Yes, he’s here closed in cultivation.”

Upon hearing this, Sun Zhe secretly released his Divine Sense to investigate, but soon found out that his Divine Sense couldn’t penetrate the array covering the peak.

So he asked in his mind, ”Sister Long, do you think the Brass Pestle could...”

Halfway through the sentence, he suddenly froze, revealing a bitter smile behind his mask, realizing that the Little Dragon Girl was no longer by his side.

”I’ve really gotten used to it. I wonder if Sister Long occasionally shouts Xiao Zhezi.”

As he was lamenting inwardly, a whistling sound suddenly reached his ears.

Following the sound, he saw Grandmaster Tianyun, Old Man Meng the Poison Sword Master, and Madman Zhang flying towards him.

After a short while.

The three elders flew over and stopped beside him. Old Man Meng cupped his fists, ”Young friend, we already know about the matter broadly. But it’s said that Wu Zheng colluded with a powerful Outer Sect Master who’s accompanied by many disciples. Shouldn’t we discuss a strategy first?”

Upon hearing this, Sun Zhe shook his head slightly, looking at the three elders with gratitude, ”Earlier when Yan’Er was in trouble, I thank the three elders for their righteous assistance.”

Madman Zhang waved his hand generously, ”Oh, it’s alright, we couldn’t sit back watching such things, we had to lend a hand.”

Grandmaster Tianyun smiled wryly, ”Unfortunately, our abilities were insufficient, almost putting Miss Zhu in harm’s way... it’s good that young friend returned in time, unharmed.”

At this point, Zhu Yan cupped her fists to the three elders, ”The grace of the three elders, this woman will remember forever.”

Madman Zhang waved his hand with a smile, indicating not to mind, suddenly flying to Sun Zhe’s bottom side, found Wu Zheng at the other end of the rope and taunted him, speaking more and more harshly, causing Wu Zheng’s face to turn iron-blue, nearly spitting blood.

Sun Zhe shook his head with a smile, suddenly finding Madman Zhang rather amusing, as if he hadn’t lost his childlike innocence, and then slowly landed, saying to Wu Zheng, ”Go inform your master that I’ve brought the Taiyin Sacred Body he’s after.”

”Also, kindly tell him that if he comes out to apologize, he might still retain a whole corpse. If I break in, he might be chopped into eight pieces.”

Wu Zheng’s temper had long been drained, and upon hearing this, he saluted and nodded, suppressing the hatred in his heart, and staggered toward the peak.

Madman Zhang asked, ”Young friend, aren’t you afraid this old bastard will run away?”

Sun Zhe chuckled, ”I’ve already crippled him to this extent and brought him to meet his master, now he’s probably more afraid of me running away.”

Seeing Sun Zhe’s tone filled with absolute confidence, he didn’t say more.

At this time, Sun Zhe took out some healing Elixirs and three rare Spirit Medicines from the Ring Space, handing them to the three, saying, ”These Elixirs can help the three elders heal, and these Spirit Medicines should greatly benefit your cultivation.”

Madman Zhang’s eyes brightened momentarily, ”Heh heh, I won’t stand on ceremony with you, young friend! But young friend, it’s not that I’m seeking favors in return for help, it’s just that your stuff is too tempting to refuse, something for nothing!”

Sun Zhe laughed heartily, enjoying Madman Zhang’s straightforward nature.

At this time, Old Man Meng said with feeling, ”Young friend, you should be quite young, yet your cultivation and skills have reached such a profound level, it’s worthy for us elders to learn from.”

Sun Zhe smiled humbly, ”Just luck, encountered some opportunities. Three elders, let’s meet at the peak someday.”

”Sure, see you at the peak!”

At this moment, a whistling sound came from the sky behind.

The bustling crowd suddenly became lively.

”It’s Steward Chu!”

”Why did he come too?”

”...”

Sun Zhe followed the sound to see Chu Chenglong coming aggressively, joking, ”Steward Chu’s nose is quite sharp, found us so quickly.”

Chu Chenglong angrily said, ”I’ve heard everything. Just who are you, first wearing a conical hat, now a mask, never showing your true face to the world, what’s your intention in repeatedly harming compatriots?”

Upon hearing this, Sun Zhe’s gaze turned icy, ”You say I’m harming compatriots, but when Wu Zheng colluded with the Foreign Race to bully compatriots, where were you?”

Chu Chenglong’s chest heaved with anger, ”Your feud with Wu Zheng, I don’t care, he deserves his punishment! But do you know, your actions now will provoke those Outer World experts, thus bringing deadly disasters to our Earth Martial Artists!”

Madman Zhang laughed heartily, ”I say, Steward Chu, if you’re so timid and fearful, then don’t join this excitement. Why do you also have a bunch of trivial matters with no abilities, making things difficult for yourself?”

”Brother Douli has seen great righteousness, repeatedly boosting the morale of us Earthlings, upholding our Hua Country’s backbone! This is a good deed, why do you cling to your doctrines?”

Chu Chenglong angrily said, ”I’m also thinking for the greater good, to protect our Earth’s younger generation, these Outer World villains should not be provoked!”

”Huh...”

Hearing this, Sun Zhe suddenly chuckled, saying lightly, ”Steward Chu, I just want to ask you one question.”

Chu Chenglong glared at him, ”Speak!”

Sun Zhe asked, ”Do you know how the Qing dynasty fell?”

Upon hearing this, Chu Chenglong fell silent.

The crowd of Earth Martial Artists watching was also quiet, instinctively clenching their fists.

Sun Zhe met his gaze, slowly saying, ”Generally speaking, Outer World villains are stronger than us Earth Martial Artists, this is an undisputed fact. But your repeated forbearance and appeasement only result in worsening treatment.”

”In those people’s eyes, we’re just called Kunlun ants; if we have value, we’ll be used; if not, we’ll be crushed. So do you genuinely think your weakness and retreat can exchange for fair treatment from the strong?”

”Our Hua Country’s dignity has always been fought for, never traded for by concession!”

”Dignity only exists on the edge of the sword!”

”...”
