Peerless Medical Emperor

Chapter 169: Showing Up at the Door

However, Luo Yunteng quickly snapped out of his surprise.

"Master, who could be here at this hour?"

Luo Yunteng looked toward Zi Chong.

"I'm afraid they don't come in peace."

"Reinforcements for the Luo Family."

"You go hide in the secret room. I'll handle this," Zi Chong said.

"Alright."

Luo Yunteng nodded.

"Is anyone home?"

"If not, I'm letting myself in," Chen Qingdi called out.

He could already sense the presence of two people inside.

Soon, footsteps sounded from within.

"Coming!"

"Just a moment."

When the door opened, Chen Qingdi saw Zi Chong.

Zi Chong was also sizing him up.

"Who are you looking for?" Zi Chong asked, looking at Chen Qingdi.

"You," said Chen Qingdi.

"Me?"

"But I don't know you," Zi Chong said, shaking his head.

"Let's not beat around the bush. You're the one behind the Luo Family's troubles, aren't you?" Chen Qingdi stated.

"The Luo Family? What troubles?" Zi Chong feigned ignorance.

But inwardly, he was stunned.

'He found me so quickly!'

"Do you really need to play dumb?"

"The sky filled with Yin Talismans, the air thick with death... isn't that your handiwork?"

"What's the matter? You have the guts to do it, but not to admit it?" Chen Qingdi scoffed.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"If you have no other business here, please leave," Zi Chong said.

But Chen Qingdi showed no sign of leaving.

"What's this? Still not going? Are you waiting for me to ask you to dinner?"

"I'm afraid I don't have time for that," Zi Chong said, his expression turning icy.

Chen Qingdi ignored him and strode right in.

"Hey! I told you, you're not welcome here! What part of that don't you understand?" Zi Chong said, fuming.

"I just can't understand what the Luo Family could have possibly done to you," Chen Qingdi said, looking around. "To make you use a Hundred Evils Talisman and even bury so many Evil Charms on their property."

"As a Feng Shui Master, you should be doing good, not constantly plotting murder for profit. Such actions are beneath a true gentleman."

"Gentlemen? Villains? I have no idea what you're talking about." Zi Chong continued to play dumb.

"Alright, you don't understand, is that it?"

"Then let's see if you understand after I've crippled your cultivation."

As he spoke, Chen Qingdi flicked his finger.

A bolt of Qi Strength shot out with a WHOOSH, flying straight at Zi Chong.

Seeing this, Zi Chong knew Chen Qingdi was serious.

'Looks like a fight is unavoidable.'

He immediately flung out a rune.

The rune intercepted Chen Qingdi's powerful strike.

But with a BANG, it disintegrated into ash.

"Kid, I've been patient with you, but you actually dare to attack me."

"Then don't blame me for what happens next," Zi Chong said coldly.

"Bring it on. Show me everything you've got."

"Otherwise, I doubt you'll last even ten of my moves," Chen Qingdi said with a disdainful air.

"Don't get too arrogant, kid."

"I, Zi Chong, have never feared anyone!"

"Instead of working for the Luo Family, why not work for me?"

"We can take down the Luo Family together. When we do, I'll split their fortune with you, fifty-fifty. What do you say?" Zi Chong asked, a grin spreading across his face.

The truth was, Chen Qingdi exuded such a powerful pressure that Zi Chong was forced to admit he probably wasn't his opponent.

"Not interested."

"An evil man like you doesn't deserve to live in this world."

"Die."

With a wave of his hand, Chen Qingdi sent several streams of Qi Strength hurtling toward Zi Chong.

Zi Chong hastily retreated, leaping into the air.

Stepping on several runes, he flew to the rooftop and looked down at Chen Qingdi with a sinister gaze.

"Kid, just because you have the upper hand doesn't mean you should be so merciless."

"I'm not to be trifled with," Zi Chong said coldly.

"Of course I know you're not to be trifled with. You're a Yin Talisman Master, after all."

"Your use of runes is quite good."

"Tell me, you're a Feng Shui Master. Why are you here plotting to take over the Luo Family instead of reading the feng shui of people's homes?"

"Who's pulling the strings?" Chen Qingdi demanded.

"That's none of your business."

"Enough talk. You want my life? Well, I want yours!"

As he spoke, Zi Chong sent several runes flying. They transformed into a ball of energy and shot toward Chen Qingdi.

However, the moment the energy reached Chen Qingdi, it spontaneously combusted, unable to harm him in the slightest.

'Huh? This kid is bizarre. My runes have no effect on him at all.'

Zi Chong was completely blindsided.

His gaze grew colder.

This young man was far more difficult to handle than he had ever anticipated.

"I never imagined your power was so profound."

"How about you become my disciple?" Zi Chong said to Chen Qingdi with a laugh.

"You want to be my master?" Chen Qingdi let out a cold laugh.

'This guy's abilities are pathetic.'

Chen Qingdi didn't see him as a threat in the slightest.

"Die!"

Chen Qingdi decided not to hold back any longer.

'Someone like him only brings harm to the world.'

He attacked decisively, pointing a finger forward.

An immense wave of energy, with a WHOOSH, shot out and struck Zi Chong directly.

Zi Chong used his runes to block a significant portion of the attack's force, but he was still thrown back.

He coughed up a mouthful of blood, his aura weakening considerably.

At this point, Zi Chong would have to be a fool not to realize that he was completely outmatched by Chen Qingdi.

Losing all will to fight, he vanished into the distance in a few quick leaps.

Chen Qingdi didn't give chase.

He had injured Zi Chong severely enough that he shouldn't be causing trouble again anytime soon.

After scaring off Zi Chong, Chen Qingdi took a quick walk around the small courtyard.

The courtyard was tiny.

Then, he went inside to have a look.

In truth, Chen Qingdi knew there was still another person in the house.

However, he didn't expose them.

He deliberately lingered for some time, wanting to see if the person hiding in the secret room would emerge.

They didn't.

Chen Qingdi didn't feel the need to drag the person out. After waiting for a little while longer, he left.

With that, the matter of the Luo Family was temporarily resolved.

Chen Qingdi quickly returned to the Luo Family estate.

By now, everything there had returned to normal.

Elder Luo's spirits seemed much improved as well.

「In a reception hall.」

A few of the Luo Family's top experts stood guard outside.

Inside were only Elder Luo, Luo Longsheng, and Chen Qingdi.

"The matter is more or less resolved."

"I found the Yin Talisman Master, but he managed to escape."

"Before he fled, however, I wounded him severely. He shouldn't dare to show his face in Jingxi again anytime soon," Chen Qingdi explained.
