The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 999: Chapter 999: The Reckless Fear the Fearless

As they searched, they were thorough and efficient.

The Tang Family had a large number of people, while the Wang Family had only seven cars. A group of people surged forward, searching without any hesitation.

The Wang Family members were furious but did not dare speak up and even had to avoid them. Who knows if the Tang Family members had poison on them? Breathing a little too much air might lead to an unintended death, wouldn’t that be unjust?

The Yue Family’s six members chose to watch coldly from the sidelines.

Not long after, another group arrived, this time from the Li Family, numbering over twenty people, including six Golden Core experts.

Mr. Wang’s heart was in his throat; he hadn’t felt this tense in decades.

The more people there are, the more complicated the situation becomes. Whether their group can make it out is still uncertain, especially since the Wang Family has just blatantly broken the rules by wreaking havoc in the True Martial Hall.

The Wang Family also has a few enemies, and if they come, things will not end well.

”The search is complete, and indeed, there is no one.”

This is the conclusion given by the Tang Family.

Not finding anyone only proves that Lin Tian is indeed with the Xu Family. But none of them seemed eager to leave, looking at Mr. Wang with a mocking gaze, akin to that of two cats spotting a mouse.

Piling on misfortune, there might not be such a good opportunity in the future.

Suddenly, at this moment, a man with a severed arm jumped out of a car, his clothes soaked in blood from head to toe. Holding a large knife in his left hand, he shouted amidst the crowd, ”If you want to trouble my Wang Family, then come on! Even if I die today, I’ll take some of you with me!”

The voice carried no Inner Strength, yet the momentum was equally alarming, striking fear into everyone’s hearts. The group that had looked like cats toying with a mouse now showed serious expressions.

”Come on!!” Wang Manzi, covered in blood, brandished his knife, with his bushy beard giving him a resemblance to Zhang Fei at Changban Slope, making the intimidating crowd hesitate to come forward.

Swoosh swoosh~

Inspired by his courage, the rest of the Wang Family, hiding in the cars, rushed out brandishing weapons. Half of them were injured, yet their overwhelming aura was enough to make one’s scalp tingle.

All the Wang Family members were stained with blood, except for Mr. Wang. His old Chinese suit was spotless, his hands behind his back, looking quite like a reclusive immortal.

Mr. Wang glanced around, his voice not loud but extremely penetrating, ”The Wang Family now has fifty capable fighters, and although barefooted people aren’t afraid of those wearing shoes, if everyone wants to risk their lives, my Wang Family can still manage to exchange yours!”

The bold fear the reckless, and the reckless fear those who don’t fear death.

If Wang Manzi had a few bombs in hand now, he would have pulled the cord and jumped into the Tang Family crowd, taking out as many as possible.

Now, Yue spoke up, ”Everyone, if you’re going to strike at the Wang Family, we’ll choose neutrality.”

Mr. Wang cast a grateful glance towards him; not intervening at this moment was already a great help.

”Retreat!”

With a command, the Tang Family withdrew. Using poison could kill the Wang Family members, but their fatalities would also be significant. Not worth it!

With both the Yue and Tang Families allowing passage, the Li Family, even if they wanted to make things worse, didn’t have the courage, so they retreated as well.

After escaping this predicament, Mr. Wang instructed everyone to speed up and leave this perilous place as quickly as possible.

Only four ancient martial families have shown up so far, and with six more, being pursued again would not be as easy to escape.

Nonetheless, Mr. Wang eagerly awaited the formula in Lin Tian’s hand. With just one person, he drew in twelve ancient martial families, and the reclusive Golden Core experts emerged, all wanting to claim some benefits for their family.

The Wang Family jumped the gun this time, acting too quickly and nearly losing everything.

They were driven insane by the situation and hadn’t anticipated the interference from the family Alliance; otherwise, Lin Tian would’ve been taken away long ago.

There are simply too many variables!

Even if the Wang Family hadn’t taken the lead, other families would’ve targeted Lin Tian because the temptation was too great!

...

A week has passed since the fierce battle in the True Martial Hall.

During these seven days, no news has come from the Wang Family. Mr. Wang has been secluded in the old mansion in Kanyue City and hasn’t emerged since, although the Wang Family business is still running normally.

The Wang Family has been living in constant fear during this time. Yet, the other families have not focused on them, with their minds occupied by thoughts of Lin Tian.

These days, people have almost trampled down the threshold of the Xu Family. Besides the Wang Family, major ancient martial families come daily to inquire about Lin Tian’s health, constantly delivering great herbs and elixirs hoping for his quick recovery.

All these people and matters have been left to Yaqin to manage.

As for Miaoqiu, she’s devoted herself entirely to caring for Lin Tian, seeing his severe injuries, losing her appetite and feeling low.

She hasn’t dared to tell Mei Ruyan about this, or else her temperament would cause another outburst against the Xu Family.

Seven days ago, Lin Tian’s right arm was dislocated and fractured, seven ribs were broken, and had Mr. Wang followed through with another three centimeter punch, Lin Tian’s Sea of Qi would have been done for.

Over these days, both Western and ancient medicine practitioners have come to see him, but neither Zhao Xuefeng nor Mr. Yee had any solution; all they could do was apply plaster and adjust him.

This time, Lin Tian has once again become ’a mummy’.

However, strangely, Lin Tian’s recovery capabilities are astonishing; each day, he naturally heals a part. The plaster recently applied has been removed, although he’s not yet awake; it’s just a matter of two or three days now.

This result has relieved Miaoqiu a lot; at least recovery isn’t a problem.

Of course, they haven’t told this outcome to other families yet, since they are all ’starving tigers’.

...

Miaoqiu moved a pink hanging chair beside the bed, resting her long, fair legs on the bed’s edge, engrossed in an astronomy book.

Suddenly, she heard Lin Tian’s steady breathing become rapid, gasping for air as if he was struggling to breathe.

”Lin Tian!” Miaoqiu anxiously set the book aside, momentarily unsure of what to do amidst this panic.

This was the first abnormal display over the past few days.

Swoosh~

All of a sudden, Lin Tian opened his eyes, staring at the ceiling, panting heavily.

”Lin Tian, you’re finally awake, how do you feel now?” Miaoqiu cautiously asked him, fearing those wide-open eyes would shut again.

”Hah~”

Lin Tian’s breathing gradually steadied, his thoughts clearing as well.

Surveying the surroundings, the first sight was Miaoqiu seated at his bedside, which calmed his heart as he softly inquired, ”Where is this?”

”My room,” Miaoqiu replied.
