Medical Sovereign - Chapter 503
Chapter 503 The Ice Spirit Body
Yan Xun’s face turned blue and red as he heard the shouts. None of the five judges had less reputation than him, especially Executive Jiang, whom he could not easily offend at all because the executive was the elder brother of Vice-minister Jiang.
Seeing that Yan Hao had aroused the anger of these seniors, he stood up hurriedly and making a fist and palm salute, apologized, “Dear old chaps, I didn’t give him good discipline. Yan Hao is young and aggressive, but he never wished to insult all of you. Please don’t blame him, and let me apologize to all of you.”
Turning around, he shouted at Yan Hao who was not convinced, “Scoundrel, you really don’t know about the complexity of things. Quick, come to apologize to all your seniors.”
“Why? Did I say anything wrong? Now, it is clear who wins and who loses, but they are still defending that swindler. Who dares to say there are no tricks in it?”
In normal times, Yan Hao would naturally apologize as Yan Xun told him, but now, there were so many reporters here and he had got dizzy with success, so how could he be willing to yield with so many people present?
And he thought that he was right, so he shouted stubbornly in an unconvinced tone.
“You, you bastard, you really, really make me very angry.”
Pointing at Yan Hao, Yan Xun trembled all over and shouted angrily. He was so pissed-off that he could not utter a single word and sank into the chair, panting.
Apparently, these judges clearly favored Ding Ning and also angrily accused Yan Hao of lacking family discipline. Inwardly, he was annoyed that these people did not respect him, and asking Yan Hao to apologize was just a show only because he was afraid of arousing the public anger.
Yan Hao never wished to apologize, and what he said had also aroused the suspicion of the people at the scene, so that they looked at the five judges suspiciously. Seeing this, he, who had made a good show, pretended to be seriously angered and did not say anything anymore.
As seniors who became shrewd as they grew old, Executive Jiang and his companions were clear that Yan Xun was acting. Surely, they were all outstanding physicians of national medicine and cherished their reputations quite much. Yan Xun smeared their reputations by using the words of Yan Hao, making them tremble in anger, but they could not explain it unless Ding Ning could prove that his diagnosis was not wrong. Only through this way could their prestige be cleaned.
Initially, Ding Ning was extremely dissatisfied with the five judges, thinking that they were all those who deceived the public to build their reputations. They could not find Xiao Yan’s disease, so they considered him a swindler.
But not until now did he know that the five judges trusted him with their lifelong prestige. He was moved by this and became quite indignant with Yan Xun and his grandson.
He took a stride forward and glanced at Yan Hao coldly. “I have no ability to explain the thing that you are ignorant of.”
“What did you say? If you have guts, say it again. You damn swindler!”
Hearing these words, Yan Hao, who was content with his attained goal, flew into a rage and pointing at Ding Ning, swore with wrath.
“I am a swindler? Ha-ha, what a joke! A morally degenerated unqualified quack like you doesn’t deserve to live in this world.”
Ding Ning did not even want to look at him, and walked to Xiao Yan.
“Little bastard, you fucker want to die!”
Stimulated by his scornful attitude, Yan Hao went insane. He bent his back, picked up a brick, rushed over, and aimed at the back of Ding Ning’s head with it.
“Ah, watch out!”
Xiao Yan, who had been watching Ding Ning, exclaimed involuntarily and closed her eyes in shock, as if she had seen the scene that Ding Ning’s head had been smashed.
People in the surroundings were in an uproar and did not expect Yan Hao to commit a crime in public. Wei Biaobiao and his partners changed their expressions dramatically, instinctively wanting to rush over and rescue him, but they were too far from him and could not give a helping hand.
Yan Xun suddenly stood up and stamped his feet in shame and anger. “This bastard is really stupid!”
The scene seemed to be frozen. Those timid people had shut their eyes and could not bear to witness the coming tragedy.
“You want to die!”
A clear, cold shout suddenly sounded. At the speed of a ghost, Yagyuu Asamayu appeared behind Ding Ning and sent Yan Hao flying with a simple kick. Then, she snorted coldly and walked at Ding Ning’s heels.
Yan Hao screamed miserably, and his brick dropped to the ground. Like a kite with a broken line, he was forced to fly backward, and bumped into a pavilion, then he fell to the ground with a heavy thud, and finally spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes filled with great shock. He felt that he had been frozen and could not move at all.
“Oh! She has an Ice Spirit Body? What a surprise!”
Yan Hui narrowed his eyes, staring at Yagyuu Asamayu with a great joyful surprise.
“Ice Spirit Body!”
Those who also made the sound of “oh” simultaneously with him were just Director Duan, Green Bamboo, and Jiang Wuhui.
The three of them looked at one another, with different expressions. After thinking for a moment, Jiang Wuhui whispered, “The Holy Medical Family has been powerful in the past years. Apparently, Yan Hui wants to get this girl, but we should never allow him to also get her. Let’s join hands to stop him first, and then talk about the ownership of the girl.”
Green Bamboo withdrew her previous wicked sense of humor and nodded solemnly. “Okay.”
Director Duan shook his head lightly. “I’ve joined the Bureau of Religions, so I won’t get involved in any conflicts of the Ancient Martial World. You should behave yourselves. Remember, don’t violate the rules.”
Jiang Wuhui seemed to have long expected it. Hearing the words, he was not angry. “Okay, don’t worry, Director Duan. We won’t hurt the ordinary people.”
“That would be great. Night Lone Ranger seems to have left without bidding goodbye and won’t come back. And I’m leaving now, bye!”
After a loosely made fist and palm salute, Director Duan turned around and left.
“Night Lone Ranger’s leaving is good. When we get this girl, only two of us will have a competition.”
Green Bamboo said with a small smile.
“Green Bamboo, your sect and mine have been friendly with each other. Let me take the girl, okay? I will give you compensation.”
Jiang Wuhui looked at Green Bamboo deeply and said earnestly.
Green Bamboo squinted at him and sneered. “Brother Wuhui, can you tell me what kind of compensation can be comparable to the Ice Spirit Body which has the potential to reach the Holy Martial Arts Realm?”
Jiang Wuhui had a shy expression, but it then became firm. “Whatever condition you have, just say it. This girl is extremely important to our Holy-sword Villa.”
“Well, we had better strive to get her with our abilities. Your Holy-sword Villa already has practitioners who have reached the Holy Martial Arts Realm, while our Pure Land of Sanskrit has never had practitioners in the Holy Martial Arts Realm. Do you think our sect will agree even if I agree to give up?”
Green Bamboo said faintly.
“Then let’s work together to get her first and then talk about it.”
Although Green Bamboo refused him, Jiang Wuhui did not feel depressed because he had never so much expected Green Bamboo to give up.
After all, the Ice Spirit Body possessor had the hope to become a member of the Holy Martial Arts Realm. Any party which got Yagyuu Asamayu would have a practitioner in the Holy Martial Arts Realm through training, so no sect would give up the chance to become a holy-level power.
…
“What is the Ice Spirit Body? Is it the same as my Fire-Spirit Body?”
Junior Sister Qingyun asked in a curious whisper.
“It is different. Your Fire-Spirit Body is one of the Five Element Spirit Bodies. Although it is extremely rare, it still exists, but the Ice Spirit Body is the variant body of the Water Spirit Body. Compared with the Five Element Spirit Bodies, it is even rarer. If the Five Element Spirit Bodies are spirit bodies that won’t easily appear in a hundred years, then the Ice Spirit Body is the spirit body that will rarely appear in the world in 10,000 years, and this body holder is hundreds or even thousands of times faster in cultivation than ordinary people.”
Yan Hui explained patiently, and the look in his eyes became even hotter. If he could take this girl to their sect, their Holy Medical Family would have another practitioner in the Holy Martial Arts Realm in many years. This was of great significance to their sect. No one would care about his mistake of losing the Spiritual Medicine Ring anymore, and he would also be greatly praised and awarded.
Junior Sister Qingyun looked peaceful, but she was envious inwardly. Thanks to her Fire-Spirit Body, she was greatly pampered by the seniors in their sect; otherwise, how could she have been allowed to go home and visit her parents and relatives under the circumstances that she had just joined the sect?
She extremely enjoyed the feeling of being cherished by a large group of people, but the advent of the Ice Spirit Body at the moment made her feel that her position had been seriously threatened, so she did not want the Ice Spirit Body to be taken to their sect at all.
Yan Hui did not know about women’s minds and carefully examined Yan Hao who had been carried back by Yan Ping. He felt icy cold as he touched the body and found that the blood vessels of it were frozen, and all the symptoms were the same as the ones a person got after being wounded by an Ice Spirit Body holder, but he was not shocked by this. Instead, he was happy, and then his look at Yagyuu Asamayu was full of fanaticism.
If this were not in public and he were not restrained by the Peace Agreement, now he would want to capture her and return to their sect to be awarded.
The site had already been in an uproar. No one expected Yan Hao to become violent and hurt people, and they even less expected that a seemingly fragile girl could send him flying so far with only one kick.
Huzi and his companions were even stunned. None of them had expected that the girl, who had been following Ding Ning, looked far from being beautiful (with biological skin as her camouflage), and was harmless to both humans and animals, turned out to be an excellent practitioner in the martial arts circles, which made them sigh sadly. If they had learned that, they would have tried to approach her and see if they could learn something from her.
Wei Biaobiao’s eyes even illuminated with smartness. Although he had been practicing martial arts since his childhood and had a prominent fighting ability, but compared with Yagyuu Asamayu, he seemed to be far behind.
Yan Hao was tall and strong, weighing 80 to 85kg, but he was sent flying more than a dozen meters by her with a simple kick. If he had been her, he would have never been able to make it.
He pulled Wei Biaobiao to himself and asked in a whisper, “Who on earth is that girl? Where did Brother Ding get such an excellent bodyguard?”
“No bodyguard. That is our brother-in-law’s sister Ding Luoyu, and her pet name is Money Bag.”
Huzi said with honor, his face full of pride. “Brother Biao, you really don’t know our brother-in-law. Our brother-in-law is a real master. In the strafing of more than a dozen submachine guns, he still could protect Sister Nuo and retreat unwounded. Then, you may judge how excellent his fighting ability is.”
“Oh, there is such a thing. Why did Xiaoyao never tell me?”
Wei Biaobiao’s eyes were as bright as a light bulb. He liked making friends with excellent practitioners in the martial arts circles most.
“Uh! God, I was too excited and leaked the information, and Sister Nuo did not allow me to talk about it.”
Huzi patted his forehead hard and said with so much regret.
“Come on, you sealed your mouth? Since you came back from Ninghai, you’ve been showing off our brother-in-law’s valiant records after you got drunk every time, but no one believed you.”
Li Zhe pursed his lips and exposed his past experiences.
“Are you talking about me? Am I so immoral?”
Huzi blinked innocently and looked at the crowd.
Everyone nodded smilingly, and Mosquito said angrily and pitifully, “Humph, every time you got drunk, you became a blabbermouth. Let me see how you will explain to Sister Nuo when she comes back.”
Huzi said with a bitter expression, “How could it be like this? I always have tight lips!”
Wei Biaobiao was tortured by anxiety. “Don’t talk nonsense. Just tell me, what on earth happened?”
“I promised Sister Nuo that I would never tell it to others. I’m not the person who won’t keep his promises.”
Huzi was stubborn and said righteously, making Wei Biaobiao so angry that he almost wanted to beat him.
“Brother Biao, Brother Biao, we’ve heard him say it numerous times, and we can almost recite it. Let me tell it to you.”
Li Zhe leaned over with a smile and whispered.
“Tell me, tell me, you are a good brother.”
Wei Biaobiao was overjoyed and hurriedly threw his arm around Li Zhe’s shoulder, looking like they were close brothers.
Beaming with joy, Li Zhe began to tell the story, and the others beside him occasionally added a few sentences. When hearing these words, Wei Biaobiao became excited with his hot blood surging and cheered again and again.
As he picked up his ears to listen, Huzi held Mosquito’s slim waist and gloated. “I said nothing, and it was the guy Li Zhe who told everything. If Sister Nuo wants to settle accounts when she comes back, she should go to him.”
Mosquito was so angry that she almost laughed. Then, she took his ear and snapped in a manner that she was disappointed in him, “You idiot! If you had not told it, how could Li Zhe have known it?”
“I… That’s right. Then, what should I do?”
Once Huzi remembered Xiao Nuo’s means of giving others hard times, his hair instantly stood on end and he said with a sad expression.
