The Beautiful CEO's Personal Mad Doctor

Chapter 209: Chapter 209: Zhou Tai! Stay Your Hand!

Hu Shishi could see Cheng Yuan’s resignation. Her mind raced, and she quickly came up with a great idea. ”Xiaoyuan, Dragon Flame needs a military doctor. As a doctor, you wouldn’t have to participate in daily training and would have a lot of autonomy. It wouldn’t interfere with your daily life.”

Cheng Yuan’s eyes lit up. ’That really is a great idea!’

”Sister Shishi, that’s a fantastic idea! I can promise to treat the Dragon Flame Warriors for free once a month. I suppose it would be my small way of contributing to the Dragon Country.”

As they spoke, the plane came to a stop.

Cheng Yuan carried Hu Shishi’s suitcase and followed the crowd off the plane.

=====

He Zhendong was a VIP, so he took the VIP lane and had already exited the airport.

A burly, middle-aged man stood quietly at the exit of the VIP lane.

The man wore camouflage pants and a military green tank top. His arms were as thick as an average person’s thighs, with muscles like coiling dragons that gave off an incredibly intimidating aura.

This middle-aged man was none other than Zhou Tai, and he was ready to kill.

As a squad captain in the Divine Dragon Camp, Zhou Tai had the authority to kill first and report later.

Seeing He Zhendong from a distance, a rare smile finally broke through Zhou Tai’s icy expression.

”Zhen Dong, over here!”

He Zhendong strode over and gave Zhou Tai a bear hug.

Zhou Tai released He Zhendong, grabbed his right hand, and carefully inspected the injury.

Soon, Zhou Tai let out a slight sigh of relief. ”Good, it’s just a fracture, not a shattered one. You’ll recover after three months of rest. What about that kid? Is he out yet?”

”Brother Tai, that kid is taking the regular exit. Let’s go wait over there.”

「Five minutes later.」

Cheng Yuan and Hu Shishi walked out of Gate 2.

He Zhendong had sharp eyes and spotted the two from a distance. He pointed at Cheng Yuan and said coldly, ”Brother Tai, that’s him! Be careful not to hurt the girl. She’s also with Dragon Flame.”

”Don’t worry.”

Zhou Tai strode toward Cheng Yuan with He Zhendong at his side. He Zhendong stared coldly at Cheng Yuan. ’Today, I’m going to cripple this kid!’

Zhou Tai’s aura was so powerful that Hu Shishi spotted him from a great distance and immediately grew tense.

”Cheng Yuan, that’s someone from the Divine Strategy Camp! The Divine Strategy Camp is the core strength of Dragon Flame! Their most basic warriors are all Divine Realm Grandmasters! He’s the Divine Strategy Camp’s squad captain, Zhou Tai! He’s an Innate Grandmaster! We need to fall back and grab a cab to Dragon Flame headquarters!”

Cheng Yuan gave a wry smile. ”It’s too late.”

The words had barely left his mouth when Zhou Tai’s figure flashed, appearing before the two. He stared coldly at Cheng Yuan. ”Kid, you dared to hurt Zhen Dong. Cripple your own limbs and kowtow in apology. If Zhen Dong is in a good mood, he might just spare your pathetic life!”

Cheng Yuan silently took out a Bursting Pill he had plundered from the Wang Family’s treasury.

As he was now, only his left hand could barely withstand a few blows from an Innate Grandmaster.

If he took the Bursting Pill, he was confident he could kill Zhou Tai relying on his left hand alone.

Of course, Cheng Yuan wasn’t just seeking death. He had great confidence in the strength of his own body.

When Wang Yuanlang took a Bursting Pill, his body had quickly collapsed and he’d died.

But he possessed a Divine Body. His physical strength was tens, even hundreds of times greater than Wan Yuanlang’s. He probably wouldn’t die.

At worst, he’d be severely injured, or perhaps just lightly wounded.

Cheng Yuan shoved the Bursting Pill into his mouth but didn’t swallow it, merely holding it on his tongue as he said coldly, ”I only injured He Zhendong in self-defense! It’s impossible for me to cripple my own limbs! And kowtowing in apology is even more impossible! I suggest you don’t push me too far! Otherwise, we’ll all go down together!”

Zhou Tai laughed in amusement. ”Go down together? With just the two of you—one a Quasi-God, the other a Grandmaster at their peak? Heh... I could crush you both with one hand!”

Hu Shishi knew they were no match for Zhou Tai, but she stepped forward fearlessly and said with utmost seriousness, ”Captain Zhou! Please, calm down! Cheng Yuan has already joined Dragon Flame! He was personally appointed by the Dragon Lord! If anything happens to Cheng Yuan, how will you answer to the Dragon Lord?”

’Personally appointed by the Dragon Lord?’

Zhou Tai’s pupils contracted slightly. The Dragon Lord was the idol of every Dragon Flame Warrior, and the person Zhou Tai respected most, second only to Elder He.

However, Zhou Tai wasn’t about to be scared off by Hu Shishi.

”Don’t try to scare me with the Dragon Lord! Have you ever heard the saying, ’When a general is in the field, he may disobey his lord’s command’? He injured Zhen Dong, and he must pay the price!”

Zhou Tai’s tone was still severe, but his killing intent toward Cheng Yuan had vanished. He truly could not afford to face the Dragon Lord’s wrath.

Hu Shishi, of course, refused to yield. Knowing she couldn’t protect Cheng Yuan on her own, she quickly pulled out her phone and started a video call with the Dragon Lord.

”Captain Zhou, if you have the guts, tell the Dragon Lord what you just said to his face! Tell him that ’a general in the field may disobey his lord’s command’!”

A chill flashed in Zhou Tai’s eyes. If the Dragon Lord intervened, he wouldn’t be able to make a move.

’I have to cripple this kid before the Dragon Lord answers the call!’

’At the very least, I’ll take one of his hands!’

”Move!!”

Zhou Tai struck out violently, shoving Hu Shishi aside and reaching for Cheng Yuan’s wrist.

”Xiaoyuan, watch out!!”

Zhou Tai’s movements were too fast. Hu Shishi only had time to cry out in alarm, forced to watch helplessly as he attacked.

Cheng Yuan’s focus had been on Zhou Tai the entire time. He reacted instantly, snapping his arm up and throwing his left fist forward with all his might.

BANG!

The two had exchanged a single blow.

Zhou Tai only swayed slightly, but Cheng Yuan staggered back several steps.

After all, Cheng Yuan was only a Quasi-God. To reach the level of a Grandmaster, he still had the entire Divine Realm to cross.

Even with the advantages of his Cultivation Technique and True Qi Crystalization, the gap was still considerable.

Zhou Tai was stunned. He couldn’t believe what he was seeing. ’This kid actually blocked my attack head-on?’

’How is that possible?’

’He’s only a Quasi-God!’

’What kind of talent is this?’

’No wonder the Dragon Lord personally appointed him to join Dragon Flame!’

He Zhendong didn’t believe Cheng Yuan was capable of contending with Zhou Tai and assumed Zhou Tai was holding back. He couldn’t help but shout, ”Brother Tai, this kid has some tricks up his sleeve! Don’t underestimate him! Use your full power and cripple him!”

Zhou Tai nodded emphatically, his expression turning stoic as he looked at Cheng Yuan. ”Kid, you’ve got some skill. No wonder the Dragon Lord thinks highly of you. A pity you injured Zhen Dong. Today, you must pay the price!”

Zhou Tai attacked again, this time with his full strength. He was determined to cripple one of Cheng Yuan’s arms. Even if he were punished by the Dragon Lord afterward, he would accept it.

’The debt I owe the He Family must be repaid!’

Cheng Yuan gave a wry smile. Right now, only his left hand could match an Innate Grandmaster. He had barely managed to block that last blow; his hand was fine, but his entire arm was numb.

Facing Zhou Tai’s attack, Cheng Yuan knew he had absolutely no way to resist.

’My only option now is to swallow the Bursting Pill!’

Steeling himself, Cheng Yuan swallowed the Bursting Pill in one gulp.

Just then, an absolutely furious voice roared from Hu Shishi’s phone: ”Zhou Tai! You bastard! Stop right now! You dare touch my man?!”
