Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 393: Chapter 392, The Enigmatic Man

Although they were curious about the other party’s identity, no one dared to cause trouble for Xu Wendong and Ye Qingxin. After all, someone who garnered such attention from the Su Residence was not someone the average wealthy heir could afford to provoke.

Of course, this did not mean everyone would respect Xu Wendong.

At that moment, just as Xu Wendong sat down and grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds to eat, a middle-aged man in his thirties, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes and a well-built figure, walked over.

Behind him followed four attendants, each appearing arrogant.

”Who do you think you are? What right do you have to sit in the front row with us? Move your table to the back if you don’t want to die.” The middle-aged man glared at Xu Wendong hostilely, showing no attempt to conceal his animosity.

Ye Qingxin whispered, ”His name is Lu Qing, the nephew of Grandmaster Lu Jian. He entered the realm of the First-rate Master three years ago.”

When Ye Qingxin was six, she experienced a family upheaval and joined the Life-Seeking Sect by coincidence. Despite that, she remained attentive to the happenings in the martial world.

She was well aware of the Six Great Grandmasters’ circumstances, after all, knowing oneself and one’s enemy was the key to victory.

Xu Wendong understood.

He had heard Ye Qingxin mention Lu Jian before, who was reputed to be a Sword Dao prodigy. After fifty years of cultivation, he became a Great Grandmaster, with unmatched expertise in swordsmanship among the Six Great Grandmasters.

”Disgraceful thing, daring to ignore my young master’s words! Watch how I teach you a lesson.” Seeing Xu Wendong remain silent, a middle-aged man behind Lu Qing exploded with anger.

He stormed over to Xu Wendong and thrust a palm toward him.

The fierce wind of his palm was like a tiger’s roar, causing everyone to hold their breath.

Although the Su Residence forbade fighting, this rule was limited to regular people and did not apply to those of the Great Grandmaster’s circle.

Naturally, Su Xiaodie did not step forward to defend Xu Wendong, as she was very curious about him and wanted to take this opportunity to see his strength and methods.

This was also why she arranged for Xu Wendong to sit in the front row; it both demonstrated the Su Residence’s regard for him and provided a chance to observe his strength more directly.

Xu Wendong leisurely ate sunflower seeds, not planning to act at all.

After all, this kind of small fry did not require him to step in.

Ye Qingxin alone could crush the opponent.

Thunk!

With a dull crash, the middle-aged man spat blood as he flew out, his life or death unknown.

The scene was in an uproar.

No one expected a woman’s strength to be so formidable, especially Lu Qing, whose eyes showed an expression of disbelief.

His subordinates were all First-rate Masters in strength.

But now, before Ye Qingxin, they were powerless, which was truly astonishing.

Of course, more than astonishment, there was anger. After all, Lu Qing had always been arrogant and had never met anyone daring enough to belittle his presence.

He snorted coldly, ”They say you should consider the owner before beating a dog. You’ve got some guts to touch my people!” With that, he struck toward Ye Qingxin.

His movement was swift, like a gust of wind, but as soon as he got close to Ye Qingxin, she lifted a foot and directly sent him flying several meters, crashing heavily onto the auction stage, vomiting blood.

Boom!

This scene was like a clear thunderbolt, making everyone’s scalps tingle.

Even though they witnessed it with their own eyes, no one was willing to accept this sight, for Lu Qing was, after all, the nephew of Grandmaster Lu Jian and considered invincible among his peers.

Who could have imagined he would be powerfully crushed by a woman?

”Lu Qing, you can’t even beat a woman, what a waste you are!” A young man in a white suit approached slowly with a folding fan, laughing mockingly. He had long hair draped over his shoulders, and with his phoenix eyes, he exuded a nefarious charm.

Lu Qing gritted his teeth and stood up, glaring at the young man viciously, ”Don’t gloat, this woman’s strength isn’t bad; she must have broken through!”

Among the gathered were not a few heirs to wealthy families, as well as people of the Jianghu. Naturally, they knew what Lu Qing meant by breaking through.

However, the impact of this news was too great for everyone.

After all, there were only six Great Grandmasters in the martial world.

Even Grandmasters were few and far between.

Yet, this woman, who seemed just over twenty, had broken through to become a Grandmaster. Her future achievements were immeasurable, and she was extremely likely to break Lu Jian’s record of entering the Great Grandmaster realm at sixty.

But how could such a peerless talent be content with serving tea at Xu Wendong’s side?

What was this man’s background?

”Hello, beautiful, I’m Hu Tian. How about adding me on WeChat and becoming friends?” the young nobleman introduced himself, wearing a faint smile.

”I’m not interested in people who are neither male nor female,” Ye Qingxin said indifferently, then walked over to Xu Wendong, picking up a teapot to refill his cup of tea.

”Hu Tian, she called you neither male nor female. Hahaha, that’s hilarious!” Lu Qing laughed with schadenfreude.

Hu Tian’s face darkened. Although many had privately commented on his appearance, this was the first time someone had openly said it to his face.

It was like a public slap to him and his father, Hu Yidao.

But...

He could only suppress his anger.

For one simple reason.

He hadn’t broken through yet and couldn’t defeat Ye Qingxin.

He snorted coldly, sitting at the square table next to Xu Wendong, then turned to glance at Xu Wendong. From start to finish, this guy had remained calm.

His composure was surprisingly moving.

On the other side, Lu Qing also glared fiercely at Ye Qingxin, then sat at the square table with displeasure, memorizing the appearances of Ye Qingxin and Xu Wendong, mentally planning to get his revenge once his strength improved.

Time passed.

The auction house grew more crowded, and the disciples of the other four Great Grandmasters began to appear. They watched a middle-aged man in a black Zhongshan suit of extraordinary manner sit at the central table.

When Nie Yunchuan appeared, the scene instantly quieted down, for he was the only power in the Jianghu just beneath those six.

Besides the Six Great Grandmasters, he was considered invincible.

Rumor even had it that he had one foot in the Great Grandmaster realm, only a step away from breaking through.

Therefore, even as he suppressed his aura, everyone felt a powerful sense of oppression.

At the sight of Nie Yunchuan, Ye Qingxin unconsciously clenched her fists.

This middle-aged man was the murderer of her mother. If it weren’t for her jumping into the rushing river back then, she would have been killed by Nie Yunchuan as well.

Thankfully, twenty years had passed, and her appearance had changed dramatically. Even if she stood beside Nie Yunchuan, he wouldn’t recognize her as the girl he once pursued.

”Contain your killing intent. After the auction ends, I’ll cripple his cultivation, so you can kill him yourself to avenge your mother.”

Xu Wendong’s soul force resonated in Ye Qingxin’s mind.

Revenge was important, but the most crucial thing was to secure the Pill Furnace.
