The Beautiful CEO's Personal Mad Doctor

Chapter 458: Chapter 458: Brother, Can We Eat Now?

Fu Qingzhu was incredibly fast. Like a wildcat, she instantly appeared before Yang Haotian, blocking his path.

Fu Qingzhu stared at Yang Haotian, her face devoid of expression, and said coolly, ”Master Jiu, don’t be in such a hurry to leave. Why not stay for a chat?”

Even though Fu Qingzhu was only a Martial King, Yang Haotian felt an immense pressure. He was absolutely certain that this woman, just like Cheng Yuan, could not be judged as an ordinary Martial King!

’After all, if she didn’t have some real skill, how would she dare to try and kill me?’

”Beautiful, whatever Cheng Yuan is paying you, I’ll double it! I can make the transfer right now!”

Hearing this, relaxed smiles appeared on the faces of Uncle Fu and the guards. Master Jiu was brilliant; he had so easily found a way out of this predicament.

Shen Youchu’s expression changed drastically. ’It’s over,’ she thought frantically. ’If this woman is bought off, we’re completely out of options!’

Cheng Yuan’s face grew stern. ’If Fu Qingzhu can’t be trusted, I’ll have no choice but to play my final trump card.’

’However, if I use that final card, I might be branded an Evil Cultivator. The entire Ancient Martial Realm might even unite to hunt me down!’

’Even my master, the Old Dragon King...’

Fortunately, Fu Qingzhu did not disappoint Cheng Yuan.

”Master Jiu, I, Fu Qingzhu, am an assassin with principles. I don’t play both sides. Since I’ve already accepted Mr. Cheng’s commission, I cannot accept yours, no matter how high the price. I hope you won’t make things difficult for me.”

Yang Haotian’s face darkened. ”You little bitch. I was being nice to you, and you think I’m scared? You’re just a mere Martial King Peak. I’m a Martial Emperor Middle Stage. You think you can beat me?”

”You’re welcome to try, Master Jiu.”

Though Yang Haotian’s words were casual, his actions were anything but. He immediately attacked with his full strength.

”Yang Family Fist Ninth Technique—Thunderous Force!”

Yang Haotian let out a thunderous roar, unleashing the strongest Martial Arts technique he knew!

Yang Haotian’s entire demeanor changed in an instant. He transformed from a useless glutton into a world-conquering Divine General!

His fist carried an aura that could crush anything in its path, imbued with the force of a wind and thunder, and the power to slaughter an army. He launched his attack with full might, hurtling toward Fu Qingzhu with unstoppable force!

Fu Qingzhu’s pupils constricted slightly. ’What powerful fist energy!’

Logically, as an assassin, Fu Qingzhu should have evaded the brunt of the attack and looked for an opportunity to strike a fatal blow.

But for some reason, Fu Qingzhu didn’t retreat. Instead, her eyes flashed with excitement.

”Well met! Daqingyi, Heaven-shaking!”

Fu Qingzhu let out a furious shout, producing an azure robe from out of nowhere.

With a flick of her wrist.

WHOOSH!

The azure robe shot into the air, intercepting the force of Yang Haotian’s punch!

Fu Qingzhu’s figure flashed, vanishing into the azure robe as she aimed a chop at Yang Haotian’s throat.

Seeing this from a short distance away, Uncle Fu cried out in alarm, ”Master Jiu! Get back!”

Unfortunately, Uncle Fu’s warning came too late. The momentum of Yang Haotian’s punch was already spent; all he could do was channel his remaining power into the azure robe.

RIP!

The azure robe was torn to shreds!

But Fu Qingzhu had vanished from Yang Haotian’s sight.

The next second, a scrap of cloth flickered and appeared in front of Yang Haotian. A flawless, jade-white hand shot out like a lightning bolt, swiping at his throat!

Yang Haotian could see it clearly: nestled between her slender, jade-like fingers was a glittering silver blade.

A chill ran down Yang Haotian’s spine. ’It’s over!’

’She’s going to slit my throat!’

Yang Haotian wanted to dodge, but it was useless.

Fu Qingzhu was simply too fast; there was no way to evade her.

Yang Haotian could only close his eyes in resignation, his life flashing before them.

Yang Haotian was filled with regret. ’If I hadn’t given up on myself, if I’d trained hard every day, how could I be about to die at the hands of this little bitch?’

Everyone thought Yang Haotian was a dead man. Even Cheng Yuan believed it.

Cheng Yuan clenched his fists, his face alight with excitement as he watched. His plan was killing two birds with one stone: not only would Yang Haotian be eliminated, but Daqingyi would be implicated.

With Daqingyi sharing the pressure from the Jinling Yang Family, his own burden would be much lighter.

But, to Cheng Yuan’s surprise, a visible Energy Shield suddenly materialized around Yang Haotian’s body, instantly enveloping him.

The blade that should have sliced through his throat was stopped dead, less than ten centimeters away.

Those ten centimeters were like an impassable chasm.

BOOM!!

The shield exploded. Fu Qingzhu couldn’t react in time and was caught in the blast, stumbling back seven or eight steps.

CRACK!

A tiny crack appeared on the Jade Token hanging around Yang Haotian’s neck.

An ecstatic expression spread across Yang Haotian’s face.

”Grandma really does love me most! She actually gave me the Protective Jade! And here I was, thinking it was just a regular Jade Token! You little bitch, you’re lucky the blast didn’t kill you! I’ll remember you! One day, I’ll kill you with my own two hands!”

With that, Yang Haotian turned and fled.

Fu Qingzhu’s eyes darkened. ’This is my first real mission, and it’s ending in such a complete failure!’

’Unacceptable!’

”Master Jiu, if I’m not mistaken, your Protective Jade is cracked. How many more times can it save you? The distance from Dongshan to Jinling is long enough for me to kill you a hundred times over!”

Wiping a trickle of blood from the corner of her mouth, Fu Qingzhu’s figure flickered as she gave chase.

Uncle Fu was absolutely certain that Master Jiu was no match for this young woman. He bellowed, ”Forget about things here! Go help Master Jiu! You must stop that woman!”

”Yes, Uncle Fu!”

Several guards flickered and quickly caught up with Fu Qingzhu.

”Little lady, you want to harm Master Jiu? You’ll have to get through us first.”

”Get out of my way, you dead men walking! I, Fu Qingzhu, don’t kill those who are already dying!”

”As if you could beat us!”

”Enough talk. Get lost!”

Fu Qingzhu launched a fierce attack.

The guards sneered, completely unafraid. This was especially true for the two at the Martial Emperor Middle Stage; after taking a Bursting Pill, their combat strength was comparable to a Half-Step Martial Saint.

Even if Fu Qingzhu could fight opponents of a higher realm, she couldn’t break through their defensive line.

In fact, the two Martial Emperor Middle Stage guards managed to land several consecutive blows on her.

Seeing Fu Qingzhu tied down, Uncle Fu shot Cheng Yuan a mocking look. ”Boy, that little assassin of yours is occupied. Nothing can stop Master Jiu from returning to Jinling! You, and your entire family, are going to die!”

Cheng Yuan suddenly laughed, a chilling sound. ”The one thing I hate most is people threatening my family! You brought this on yourself! Come on out!”

With a single thought, Cheng Yuan released the nine little girls he kept inside his Jade Pendant.

The nine girls’ powers had grown immensely in the Inheritance Secret Realm. Each one had reached the level of a Red Fierce Ghost, equivalent to a human Martial Emperor.

Xiaojiu, in particular, had reached the peak of the Red Fierce Ghost realm.

The moment the nine little girls appeared, they caught the thick scent of blood. Their eyes instantly turned crimson. Forcing themselves to hold back their drool, they looked at Cheng Yuan. ”Big Brother, can we eat now?”
