Peerless Medical Emperor

Chen Qingdi staunchly refused.

"Whether you want it or not, I’m giving it to you."

"Don’t refuse any longer. Having this on me will only stir up trouble. It’s better off with you. Besides, it’s truly useless to me."

Situ Xian said with a smile and a shake of his head.

Seeing Situ Xian insist on giving it to him, Chen Qingdi finally had no choice but to nod.

"I’ll hold on to this for you until you leave Jingxi."

"If you need it, I’ll give it back."

Chen Qingdi said.

"Like I said, I don’t need it. You take it. If you have a use for it, feel free."

"This thing is a ticking time bomb on me."

"I’m sure the Luo Family has people watching me right now."

"If the Luo Family finds out you have it, it won’t be a good thing for you either. Try to secretly drain the Spiritual Energy from it."

Situ Xian said to Chen Qingdi.

"Thank you for the warning, Senior Elder Situ. I’ll be leaving now."

Chen Qingdi said.

"Alright. Don’t forget what you promised me."

Situ Xian said.

"I’ll remember."

Chen Qingdi nodded and quickly departed.

After Chen Qingdi’s departure, Situ Xian quickly made his way toward the Zheng Family’s main hall.

Just as Situ Xian stepped into the Zheng Family’s main hall, a voice called out from upstairs.

"Elder Situ, where have you been? I was just looking all over for you."

Zheng Shifang said.

"Is something wrong?"

"Isn’t Young Master Zheng’s condition stable now?"

Situ Xian asked, a puzzled look on his face.

"His condition is indeed fine now."

"The thing is, now something’s wrong with me. Come over and take a look, quick."

Zheng Shifang said.

"You’re in the prime of your life. What could be wrong with you? I’d say you’re just exhausted from the past couple of days. You should go get some rest."

Situ Xian said.

"Please, just come take a look, Elder Situ. I’m begging you."

"I really don’t think it’s just a matter of being tired."

Zheng Shifang said with a laugh.

"Fine."

Situ Xian could only nod and walk over to Zheng Shifang.

After examining Zheng Shifang, he found nothing out of the ordinary.

"Your pulse is a little weak, but that’s perfectly normal."

"There’s nothing wrong. Go get some rest."

Situ Xian said.

"Alright."

Zheng Shifang had no choice but to nod and go get some rest.

But just as Zheng Shifang entered his room and closed the door, a wisp of black qi slowly drifted out from his back. The qi was so faint that even Zheng Shifang himself didn’t notice it.

After leaving the Zheng Family estate, Chen Qingdi was about to hail a cab home.

Just then, however, he noticed someone skulking in a large tree by the side of the road ahead. Looking closer, he saw it was none other than Zhuge Yunduan.

’Didn’t that guy leave before me? But now he’s hiding in a tree across from the Zheng Family’s place, staring at it nonstop. What is he up to?’

In any case, Chen Qingdi felt the man harbored ill intentions and was most likely waiting for him.

So Chen Qingdi strode forward, wanting to see if Zhuge Yunduan was indeed after him.

After crossing the road, Chen Qingdi walked briskly ahead. And just as he expected, Zhuge Yunduan was following him.

Chen Qingdi didn’t know what his endgame was, but he was sure the man was up to no good.

This also soured his impression of the Martial Medicine Association.

Chen Qingdi deliberately headed for a deserted area. He wanted to see what Zhuge Yunduan, who was tailing him so furtively, was planning to do.

Soon, Chen Qingdi reached an empty, open area with no one around. It was surrounded by towering trees, with a small river running alongside it.

"You’ve followed me this whole way. There’s no need to keep it up."

Chen Qingdi called out behind him.

"You punk. You actually knew I was following you."

A moment later, Zhuge Yunduan emerged slowly from a hidden corner, his gaze fixed icily on Chen Qingdi.

"I spotted you a long time ago. What can I do for you, Mr. Zhuge?"

Chen Qingdi got straight to the point, not wanting to waste any more time.

"I saw you use the Sixteen Immortal Needles, which are rumored to have been lost."

"It is truly a Divine Needle Skill. I want to learn it too."

"I believe you know many other lost needle techniques, don’t you?"

Zhuge Yunduan said, looking at Chen Qingdi.

Chen Qingdi smiled and nodded.

"Then that makes things simple. Hand over the manuals for these Divine Needle Skills."

"And I might let you live."

Zhuge Yunduan said.

"Are you kidding me?"

"This is my livelihood we’re talking about."

"Why would I ever give them to you?"

"Have you lost your mind?"

Chen Qingdi just shook his head.

Zhuge Yunduan was greatly displeased to see that Chen Qingdi refused.

"It seems you’ve chosen death."

"I’ll ask you one last time. Will you give them to me or not? If you don’t, I’ll kill you."

Zhuge Yunduan said.

"Do you have what it takes?"

Chen Qingdi shot Zhuge Yunduan a mocking look.

Zhuge Yunduan’s expression twisted when he heard this.

"You dare look down on me?"

"I’ll make you pay for that."

Zhuge Yunduan said, clenching his fists tightly, his gaze turning frigid.

’Ever since we got to the Zheng Family’s place, this guy has outshined me at every turn.’

’If I don’t get rid of Chen Qingdi, he’ll be the one to reap all the rewards.’

At this thought, Zhuge Yunduan decided he had to kill Chen Qingdi. ’He must have treasures on him. As long as I get my hands on those, it won’t matter if I get the reward from the Zheng Family or not.’

At this thought, Zhuge Yunduan’s gaze grew even colder.

"Take this!"

Zhuge Yunduan’s figure flickered, and like a streak of light, he shot straight toward Chen Qingdi.

Chen Qingdi, however, faced it all with a calm and indifferent expression.

He didn’t take Zhuge Yunduan seriously at all.

Seeing Chen Qingdi stand motionless, Zhuge Yunduan assumed he was scared stiff.

"Scared now, punk?"

"Haha! Even if you are, you’re still going to die!"

Zhuge Yunduan said.

With that, the Qi Strength in his palm shot out, flying straight for Chen Qingdi.

But just as the attack was about to land, Chen Qingdi twisted his body sharply, somehow dodging the ferocious assault.

Seeing this, Zhuge Yunduan was utterly stunned, his face a mask of disbelief.

"No way... You actually dodged such a powerful attack from me."

Zhuge Yunduan said in disbelief.

"What’s so surprising? Isn’t that easy to do?"

Chen Qingdi replied.

Hearing Chen Qingdi’s words, Zhuge Yunduan’s expression turned ugly.

He hadn’t even gotten a chance to show off, and here was Chen Qingdi, acting all cool and collected. Zhuge Yunduan was furious.
