The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine

Chapter 697: Chapter 697: Top-Level Venue

“Th-this…this…” The man from the Bian Family stammered, cold sweat running down his body.

The ‘Flying Needle in Midair Technique’ displayed by Huang Xiaolong just now not only intimidated Ji Zhengyu, Ma Chuxia, and others, it also stirred an unending storm in his heart!

This man from the Bian Family was more shocked than anyone else.

Because only he, who has been studying medicine since childhood, understood how difficult it is to master the ‘Flying Needle in Midair Technique’!

“Ohh, you looked shocked. Does nobody in your Bian Family know this technique?” Huang Xiaolong laughed.

The man from the Bian Family remained silent, implicitly acknowledging the truth.

...

“Alright, enough of this nonsense. You belong to one of the ten great ancient martial families. Your word is your bond. If you’ve uttered something, wouldn’t you be shameless to take back your spit? ” Huang Xiaolong teased.

“Wait!” The man from the Bian Family frowned. “Your medical skills are truly impressive, but they aren’t recognized.”

“Recognized?” Huang Xiaolong looked surprised.

“Yes, your supreme medical skills are wasted, residing in a Taoist temple in Dong’an city,” the man from the Bian Family arrogantly quipped. “Here’s what I propose, I can recommend you to my Bian Family, and you can be a Guest Elder there. Being a Guest Elder in my Bian Family is an enormous blessing which is hard to come by. In return, we can shower you with wealth, power, status, beautiful women…all the things you’ve ever dreamed of.”

The man from the Bian Family actually began wooing Huang Xiaolong.

“Pffft, did I hear that right?” Huang Xiaolong almost burst into laughter. “‘Granting’ me those things? Are you pitying me? Hahahaha… Forget it. I don’t want to waste my breath talking to you. Are you going to cripple your own arm or should I do the honor?”

“Preposterous! Your arrogance is offensive! Just because you have medical skills doesn’t mean you can be overconfident. It’s ridiculous!” The man from the Bian Family was livid.

“Alright, I’ll do it.” Huang Xiaolong shook his head in resignation. “I never take advantage of anyone. Since I said I would cripple your arm, that’s exactly what I’ll do…”

As he spoke, Huang Xiaolong swung his right hand, sending several silver needles piercing through the air like lightning!

Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!

The silver needles pierced directly into the right arm of the man from the Bian Family.

“Ahh!!!” He felt a stinging sensation in his right arm, as if several venomous bees had stung him.

Huang Xiaolong waved his hand again, and the silver needles flew back to him as if they had eyes.

“What…what did you do to me? What did you do to me?” The man from the Bian Family screamed in horror. He found that although his arm was no longer in pain, it was completely numb and stiff, devoid of any feeling. He couldn’t even lift it!

“Nothing much, I just crippled some acupoints in your right arm. In a few days, the nerves and muscles of your right arm will rot and atrophy. After half a month, you will have to undergo an amputation; otherwise, it will spread throughout your body and threaten your life.” Huang Xiaolong looked at him mischievously. “However, you can go back and ask the elders of your Bian Family to cure you. If they can heal you, then it’s your good fortune.”

“I won’t let this go! I’ll kill you! I will take your life sooner or later! You mongrel!” The man from the Bian Family cursed vehemently, his homicidal glare was indeed threatening. But he didn’t dare to linger, cradling his right arm, he fled in a panic and deep resentment.

“Little Long, your silver needle technique is remarkable,” Xia Ying exclaimed in admiration.

“It’s quite simple, I can teach you when I’m free,” Huang Xiaolong laughed.

“I want to learn too!” Ma Chuxia, Zhou Mi, and Miao Erfang chorused.

Ji Zhengyu decided to stay at the City God Temple, trying his utmost to please Huang Xiaolong.

Ji Zhengyu was buttering up to Huang Xiaolong, partially out of gratitude and also because he began to realize that Huang Xiaolong was not an ordinary person. Deep inside, he was convinced that by being acquainted with Huang Xiaolong, it would bring him immense benefits, with no downside at all!

In the afternoon, Ji Zhengyu said to Huang Xiaolong, “Master, if you are free this evening, I would like to take you to a special place.”

“Oh? Which place?” Huang Xiaolong asked, smiling.

Ji Zhengyu quickly explained, “Master, that place is not accessible to ordinary people. Even the privileged ones, if they are not part of that circle, they are not eligible to enter it.”

“Oh? What circle?” Huang Xiaolong asked, intrigued.

“Master, it’s the circle of the Ten Great Ancient Martial Families.” Ji Zhengyu rummaged up a pleasing smile. “That place is founded and controlled by the ‘Yu Family’ from the Ten Great Ancient Martial Families. Apart from the internals of the Ten Great Ancient Martial Families, only the top individuals domestically or internationally, or those who are on good terms with the Ten Great Ancient Martial Families are eligible to enter. Tonight, I would like to bring you, Master, to have fun.”

In order to repay and please Huang Xiaolong, Ji Zhengyu decided to introduce Huang Xiaolong into the circle of the Ten Great Ancient Martial Families, visiting a top-notch venue!

“Is it fun?” Huang Xiaolong asked, laughing. In reality, as the son-in-law of the Ying Family, he was already a member of this circle of the Ten Great Ancient Martial Families! However, he was too lazy to mention this identity!

“Yes, Master. There, you can enjoy everything you want… These are pleasures, but they’re unimaginable to outsiders.” Ji Zhengyu said, eagerly.

“Okay, I’ve got nothing better to do anyway.” Huang Xiaolong nodded with a smile.

Ma Chuxia and Xia Ying, intrigued, naturally asked to accompany Huang Xiaolong.

They had dinner in the City God Temple.

The divine meal, coupled with the vegetables and fruits grown in Huang Xiaolong’s spiritual field, were simply heavenly. They were tonics that rejuvenated the body and were extremely nutritious.

Ji Zhengyu was amazed by the food, realizing that no amount of money could buy such ordinary dishes imbued with spiritual energy.

‘It seems that being a follower of the Master is not a bad idea.’ Ji Zhengyu harbored a strange thought.

After dinner, everyone drove to the location mentioned by Ji Zhengyu.

The place was located on the border between Dong’an City and its neighboring city, in a rather secluded suburb.

An enormous building was constructed on a steep slope. At the foot of the mountain, several brawny men were guarding the place. Huang Xiaolong saw that they were actually Semi-Grandmasters.

Also, in the parking lot at the foot of the mountain, there were several top-notch luxury cars, most of them limited-edition sports cars, extremely extravagant and high-priced.

Ji Zhengyu made it very clear that being able to come here has nothing to do with how wealthy or high-ranking you are. You must gain the approval of the Ten Great Ancient Martial Families to enter. The threshold of this circle was indeed high!

At the foot of the mountain, Ji Zhengyu showed a card to the guard, who respectfully let them pass.

“Master, please.” Ji Zhengyu bowed and let Huang Xiaolong walk in front.

They arrived at the main entrance of the building halfway up the mountain.

A small door was slightly ajar. Ji Zhengyu gently pushed it open.

The dazzling lights from inside seeped out, along with the bustling atmosphere. The eager exchange of conversations, laughter revealed that it was a very lively place inside this building located in the wilderness.
