Medical and Martial God

Chapter 585: Unventable Rage and Frustration

"I kill Ninth Realm fighters as if it’s child’s play," Ye Xiu declared arrogantly. "But others can’t use my cultivation method. Besides, there can’t be a second martial artist in this world who could reach my heights."

His words were brimming with arrogant confidence.

Qin Qing pouted. "Look at you, so full of yourself!"

Ye Xiu chuckled and continued, "Because without opening a Qi Sea, they cannot undergo the Second Realm Qi Refining Period, the Third Realm Spirit Refining Stage, the Fourth Realm Body Refining Stage, and so on. This prevents a martial artist from achieving the true purpose of cultivation.

"For instance, at the Fourth Realm Body Refining Stage, one should be impervious to firearms, but our current Fourth Realm War Gods can be killed with a single shot."

If Er Gouzi, Gong Jin, Mo Luo, and Ghost Doctor heard what Ye Xiu was saying, they would understand why he had not shared the cultivation methods for the Seventh Realm War God level and above.

"So, you’re saying you want me to use the spiritual energy of Eternal Island to cultivate?" Qin Qing finally understood his point.

Ye Xiu nodded. "Exactly!"

"I’m not going!" Qin Qing refused decisively. "You’re already invincible. Why should I bother cultivating to be that strong?"

If it weren’t for helping Ye Xiu, she wouldn’t have the slightest interest in martial arts.

"Cultivating with spiritual energy can keep you forever young," Ye Xiu revealed.

Qin Qing sprang to her feet. "When do we go?"

"Young Master, I want to go too!" Chloe’s eyes shone brightly.

Ye Xiu finally understood. For the sake of beauty and youth, a woman would walk through fire and climb a mountain of blades without so much as a frown.

He said, "As for when we go, I don’t have the final say. It all depends on when the three great Judicator Families decide to come for you."

"How can we get them to come for me?" Qin Qing asked impatiently.

Ye Xiu’s eyes narrowed. "We make the three great Judicator Families recognize my strength and my value. To control me, their only option will be to take you hostage."

"Fine," Qin Qing said, her interest instantly gone. "Listening to you talk was a complete waste of ten minutes."

Ye Xiu was speechless.

「In the evening」

Kristina woke up. The first thing she saw upon opening her eyes was Ye Xiu sitting opposite her, his left arm around Qin Qing and his right arm around Leng Yue.

"What did you do to me?" Kristina demanded.

"Slept with you, of course!" Ye Xiu said with a lecherous grin. "Let me introduce you. The one on my left is my main wife, Qin Qing. The one on my right is my second wife, Leng Yue. And from now on, you’ll be my junior wife."

Ye Xiu said this mainly so Kristina would recognize Qin Qing and Leng Yue. That way, when the three great Judicator Families sent people to capture them, they would take Qin Qing and Leng Yue as well. With Leng Yue accompanying Qin Qing to Eternal Island as hostages, Ye Xiu could rest easy.

"What?"

Kristina’s usually impassive face finally cracked. She sprang to her feet and frantically checked her body, only to see that the fly of her jeans was unzipped. Now she finally believed that Ye Xiu had slept with her.

"I’ll kill you!"

In that moment, Kristina lost all reason. She leaped forward, her palm striking toward Ye Xiu.

The Golden Family had a clan rule: those who inherited the Golden Totem could only choose a spouse from within the clan to prevent the totem’s power from flowing outward.

But she had...

"Sit down!"

With a wave of Ye Xiu’s hand, the airborne Kristina was slammed back down onto the sofa.

Ye Xiu stood and chided her, "You’re not even properly part of the family yet and you’re already causing chaos. It seems I have to assert my authority as the husband today. Number One, Number Two, enforce the family law."

Qin Qing and Leng Yue immediately stood up in cooperation, posturing as if they were about to pull down Kristina’s pants.

"Ah!"

Kristina’s face went pale with fright. She let out a shriek and scrambled away.

Qin Qing and Leng Yue didn’t pursue her, as their objective had been achieved.

"Meng Yinwan and those from the Restorer Alliance are plotting to make a move on Kristina tonight. I’ll go let Kristina see what I’m really capable of," Ye Xiu said with a smile, then gleefully chased after her.

At that moment, Chloe asked in a low voice, "Young Madam, do you feel that there’s something a little off about the Young Master?"

Leng Yue felt the same way. "Yes, he does seem off. A bit too erratic and reckless."

Qin Qing’s expression was heavy. She had a good idea why Ye Xiu was acting so out of character.

The anniversary of his mother’s and maternal grandparents’ deaths was approaching. For the first time in ten years, he was supposed to pay his respects, only to discover he didn’t even know who his true enemy was. A decade of repressed hatred and a revenge plan ten years in the making had resulted in him still not knowing who had hypnotized the Dragon Master. This left Ye Xiu with a mountain of seething rage and anxiety with no outlet, forcing him to keep up the charade of casually toying with his enemies.

***

"Damn you, Ye Xiu! Just you wait!"

Kristina’s mind was in turmoil. Because she practiced the Supreme Oblivion Record, she had always strived to prevent any emotion from influencing her. But now, her mind was completely shattered by a storm of anger, regret, hatred, and every other negative emotion imaginable.

She ran all the way to the hotel Sun Shixin had booked for her.

Sitting on the sofa in the presidential suite’s living room, she pulled a communication device resembling a cell phone from her pocket.

She sent a message: "I am in Xuanse Yunluo City. I need reinforcements!"

The reply came quickly: "I will arrange it at once!"

She put the device back in her pocket and muttered hatefully, "Just you wait, Ye Xiu. When my reinforcements arrive, it will be your day of reckoning."

The words had barely left her lips when a soft, ghostly voice suddenly echoed in the room. "My, my. What did Ye Xiu do to offend the little princess and throw her mind into such chaos?"

"Who is it?" Kristina shot to her feet, her heart pounding in shock. She had been so consumed by anger and thoughts of revenge that she hadn’t even sensed that someone else was in the room.

"Has it only been a few hours, and you’ve already forgotten your big sister’s voice?"

Meng Yinwan walked out from the bedroom, swaying her hips, followed by Pusang and two other rough-looking men from the Snow Region Forest.

"Meng Yinwan?" Kristina exclaimed, turning to bolt for the door.

She stood no chance against Meng Yinwan, let alone with three helpers.

"I am a Sixth Realm War God, and Pusang and his companions are all Fourth Realm. You, a mere Second Realm, where could you possibly run?"

Meng Yinwan’s figure appeared like a phantom, blocking the doorway.

Kristina’s face instantly turned ashen.

It’s over! In such a desperate situation, death is certain!

"I’ve heard the blood of a Golden Totem Inheritor has miraculous effects. I’m eager for a taste," Pusang said with a cold sneer.

Meng Yinwan’s voice was sinfully seductive. "Then what are you waiting for?"

"Let me go first!" Pusang strode toward Kristina, his right hand forming a Sword Finger aimed at one of her acupoints. He intended to use Acupoint Sealing to paralyze her and drink her blood raw.

It’s over!

Kristina despaired. She didn’t resist; it was useless. As a Second Realm War God facing the Fourth Realm Pusang, she couldn’t harm a single hair on his head even if she fought to her death.

BANG!

Just as Pusang’s fingers were about to touch Kristina’s acupoint, the door was kicked to smithereens with a thunderous crash.

Pusang abruptly retracted his hand. He, Kristina, and Meng Yinwan’s group all stared at the doorway.

"Who’s had too much ’Invincible Sugar’ and dares to touch my woman?" Ye Xiu swaggered in, a cigarette dangling from his lips, every bit the ruffian.
