Urban Supernatural Medical Saint

Chapter 50: The Real Powerhouse



Blow!

Blow hard!

In Yanjing, someone who can make the Jin Family fear three points?

Heh, who do you think you are!?

"Cut the crap, if you don't speak up, I'm going to have to ask you to leave?" Old Master Xu flew into a rage.

If it were legal to kill people, old Master Xu Liu would have slapped this guy to death long ago!

Fang Yu said with a faint smile:

"I can only tell you this much. Knowing too much isn't good for you. As for the Sun Family, even if there's one more, I don't give a damn!"

As he said this, an icy murderous intent suddenly emanated from Fang Yu's body.

Fang Yu hated the Sun Family more than anyone else!

But...

Why such heavy killing intent!?

Old Master Xu's heart skipped a beat and asked, "Do you have a grudge against them?"

"A blood feud."

Those four simple words scared the daylights out of Xu Liu.

If that was the case, the Xu Family might have provoked big trouble, beyond their capability to cope with. The Xu Family's very survival depended on... If Peipei marries this young man, wouldn't that mean inviting enmity?

...

"Old man, there's no need to be scared. I wasn't afraid eight years ago, and I certainly won't be afraid eight years later," Fang Yu stated calmly.

Eight years ago?

Xu Liu's mind suddenly flashed back to that tremendous upheaval.

Eight years ago, Fang Yu... the Fang Family?

"Are you a descendant of the Fang Family?" Xu Liu exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, and no."

Fang Yu gave a non-committal answer.

If Xiao He and Sun Junzhong were present, they would affirm to Xu Liu that he was indeed a descendant of the Fang Family, and also the Iron Fist King who dominated Jiangzhou!

However...

Xu Liu was no ordinary man, having lived so many years in this world, no one can settle in Jiangzhou without being a man of the martial world, it's impossible without a smidgen of wit and cunning.

[Yes, and no.]

[Taiyi Divine Needle]

[Sun Qing!]

This string of keywords linked together, leading Xu Liu to a realization, and his expression became varied and vivid.

He felt his heartbeat accelerating!

Racing uncontrollably!

To confirm his thoughts, old Master Xu Liu asked with trembling lips:

"Do you really know the Taiyi Divine Needle?"

Fang Yu nodded, indisputably.

Xu Liu asked again, "Is Sun Qing truly not your master?"

Fang Yu shook his head.

This time, Xu Liu's mind went blank, his eyes gleaming with excitement as he eagerly said:

"Could it be... you are the descendant rumored to be Martial Arts Seventh Layer Heaven grandmaster Lu Tianyuan's..."

He couldn't even finish the word "descendant."

Fang Yu raised his hand to interrupt him, saying, "These are all your guesses, I've never admitted to it!"

Xu Liu forcefully reined in his excitement.

Because he still had a lot to figure out.

For instance, if Fang Yu was a descendant of Lu Tianyuan, why would his surname be Fang.

Xu Liu, based on the limited information he had, analyzed in his mind—Fang Yu had mastered the Taiyi Divine Needle, was not a disciple of Sun Qing, and the Taiyi Divine Needle was a divine technique exclusive to the Lu Family, only passed down to close relatives!

Old Master Xu suddenly slapped his thigh, silently cursing, "Stupid!"

"I really am stupid!"

Even if Fang Yu was not Sun Qing's disciple, even if he was a descendant of the Fang Family, and at the same time an enemy of the Sun Family! However, Fang Yu mastered the Taiyi Divine Needle, which means he must at least have a significant relationship with the Lu Family!

Upon this thought—

Xu Liu's eyes widened.

My God!

This is a real big shot!

A true big shot of Martial Arts Seventh Layer Heaven, even a single leg hair of which would make it hard for one to breathe!

...

But—

He still had one problem.

This problem, if kept inside, would make him very uncomfortable.

Xu Liu said courteously and gently:

"Little Fang, let me ask you… You say you're not afraid of the Sun Family, then why did you let the Sun Family take advantage of your vulnerability eight years ago?"

This question could easily plunge Fang Yu into painful memories.

Yet Fang Yu did not show any displeasure.

"There are some reasons that are more complicated than you might think."

Fang Yu sighed, "Anyhow, do you think a normal person would do such a thing against the Sun Family? That's all I can say. If you still insist on marrying Peipei to Sun Junzhong, I won't object."

Upon hearing this, Xu Liu fell silent.

What reason did he have to choose the Sun Family anymore?

The only thing that kept Xu Liu from putting his mind at ease was whether this young man's words were true or false.

After a long while, Xu Liu slowly sat down, his previous aura and spirit seeming to have disappeared, turning into an old man approaching twilight—

He lifted his aged eyes to look at Fang Yu and asked: "Can I trust you?"

"Absolutely, you can!"

Fang Yu spoke each of these four words deliberately, looking at Xu Liu, with a resounding, forceful voice.

In excitement, Old Master Xu Liu slapped the table.

"Good, I've decided to betroth Peipei to you!" Xu Liu became spirited once more.

Finally, Fang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Only, this made him feel awkward.

He said he was just helping out, and though he did help, he got himself stuck in the middle; what if this old man stubbornly clung to him, what then?

"Have you thought this through? The Sun Family outside is still waiting for your explanation," Fang Yu said.

"Explanation? What explanation? What age are we living in, still talking about arranged marriages?" Xu Liu suddenly seemed like a completely different person, speaking dismissively, "The two of you are in love, how could I, as an elder, break up a loving couple and betroth Peipei to someone she doesn't like?"

Uh—

This old man sure changes his tune quickly!

However, Old Master Xu Liu quickly deflated.

Offending the Sun Family was tantamount to offending the Xiao Family.

It was nothing short of a massive gamble.

Xu Liu looked at Fang Yu earnestly, "As for Peipei, I'll leave her to you... But let me ask you, can you bear all the consequences that arise?"

"What do you mean?"

"Please answer me, can you bear all the consequences!?"

Xu Liu deliberately used the respectful "you," showing respect for the Martial Arts Seventh Layer Heaven and also making a sincere gamble.

Fang Yu had thought this old fox was showing his true colors.

But upon hearing this question, he suddenly felt that this elderly man, so late in his years, had indeed given too much to his family.

Perhaps in a few years, he would return to dust.

The Xu Family's wealth, he wouldn't take a single piece with him.

Looking at the seriously sincere Old Master Xu Liu, Fang Yu answered with equal seriousness, yet nonchalantly:

"Leave everything to me."

...

Eight years ago, he and his master chose to escape.

Eight years later, returning to Jiangzhou, wasn't it all for this?

The Xu Family was merely an opportunity.

Those hatreds, he would have to face them sooner or later.

Fang Yu had been waiting for this day for a long time!

...

After reaching an agreement, the old and the young walked out of the backyard.

While crossing the corridor, Fang Yu also said, "Old man, it might turn into a fight soon, you're not trying to take this opportunity to test my skills, are you?"

"Nonsense, why bother testing? Martial Arts Seventh Layer Heaven, a single pee is enough to flood Yanjing!"

"Please, what Seventh Layer Heaven, it has nothing to do with me," said Fang Yu, speechless.

"I'm old, I don't understand all that, I just know that Peipei is going to be your wife… Hurry up, your bride must be getting anxious!"

Damn it!

This old geezer!
