Chapter 521: The Old Man
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Who are you? Why did you attack?”
The white-robed old man smiled. He did not expect Ye Chen to be so fast. He still had his back to Ye Chen and said calmly, “Don’t worry, I don’t have any ill intentions toward you. If I wanted to kill you, you would have died long ago.” “As for the deaths of those people, you shouldn’t be soft-hearted. You broke their array formation. Do you really think they will end things here? When they return to the Kunlun Mountains, they will fan the flames, and then you’ll be left with even more problems to deal with.”
“Now that they’re dead, and only a few people know about what happened, at the very least, you’ll have the element of mystery on your side.”
“Let’s not talk too much. We’ll meet again if fate permits. You’ve successfully attracted my attention.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the white-robed old man took out the gourd at his waist and drank a mouthful of strong wine. Then, he casually took a step and stepped off the building.
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.
When Ye Chen arrived at the edge of the rooftop, he realized that he could no
longer see or detect the old man.
“There’s actually such an expert in Huaxia?”
Ye Chen was certain that this old man’s strength far exceeded the guardians.
More importantly, why did this person help him?
Ye Chen pondered for a few seconds but could not figure out a reason. He could only shake his head and return to the Jiang family’s residence.
Jiang Wentian looked at the corpses and frowned. When he saw Ye Chen return, he sighed. “All of the elders have died in Huaxia. The Fallen Sword Sect and the Blood Alliance will probably be alerted.”
“If they send someone to look for clues, all of the clues will point to you.”
“Ye Chen, we’ve really gotten into big trouble this time. Sigh!
Jiang Wentian’s tone was filled with helplessness.
Ye Chen remained unfazed. The Blood Alliance and the Fallen Sword Sect could come if they wanted. He did not think he had done anything wrong this time, so what was there to be afraid of?
If they wanted a fight, then a fight they would get!
“Uncle, how are your injuries? Do you need me to treat them?” Ye Chen asked. Jiang Wentian shook his head. He did not know about Ye Chen’s medical skills. Moreover, these injuries could be alleviated with a little cultivation.
-Ye Chen we’re fine, but the old man is in a grave state. He’s still unconscious, in order to help your mother escape, he forcefully endured Ren Qjyun’s power, and most of his meridians were damaged. Furthermore, his true qi is in disorder and his internal organs are on the verge of collapsing. We can’t delay this. I have to go to the Kunlun Mountains immediately to ask a divine doctor to help. Those quacks in Huaxia can’t do anything!
Hearing this, Ye Chen’s impression of Old Master Jiang changed a little. Jiang Rong also walked over. She knew a little about Ye Chen’s medical skills and quickly asked excitedly, “Little Chen, can you do anything?”
Ye Chen nodded.
“Take me to him. As long as he’s still breathing, I can save him even if he’s at
the gates of hell.”
Jiang Wentian was startled. Although he was suspicious, he still acquiesced when he saw Jiang Rong’s confident look.
“In that case, follow me.”
In a quiet villa on the Third Ring Road of Capital City.
Everyone in the Jiang family had been transferred here. At this moment, Old Master Jiang was lying on a hospital bed, and the readings on his electrocardiogram monitor were very weak.
If not for Old Master Jiang’s willpower, he would have died long ago. An attack from an expert like Elder Ren was not something he could withstand! When Ye Chen, Jiang Wentian, and the others appeared, everyone in the Jiang family was shocked.
They had thought that Jiang Wentian and Jiang Jianfeng, who had stayed behind to meet the elders, would not be able to come back alive.
However, not only did the two of them come back safely, but even Jiang Rong and the fierce god Ye Chen had come.
Did this fellow resolve everything?
At the thought of this, everyone in the Jiang family gasped.
Ye Chen went over to the bedside and looked at the extremely weak Old Master Jiang. He was filled with emotion.
The old man was already emitting the aura of death. Had he not arrived in time, the old man would have died within a day.
Jiang Rong’s eyes reddened when she saw how weak Old Master Jiang was. At that moment back then, she knew that her father still cared about her.
In her father’s eyes, this was redemption. In her eyes, this was the love that her father had buried deep in his heart.
“Little Chen, do you have a way to save him? He’s your grandfather after all. It’s time to let bygones be bygones,” Jiang Rong said with a trembling voice.
Ye Chen nodded, and dozens of silver needles appeared in his hand.
True qi gathered on the silver needles, and each silver needle seemed to be flickering with faint light at this moment.
Swish!
Ye Chen tossed the silver needles gently and they floated in the air while trembling slightly. Then, his fingers formed a seal as he said, “Descend!: As he spoke, countless silver needles fell and pierced the acupuncture points of the old man.
Ye Chen took out some spiritual herbs and held them in his palm. With a squeeze, countless green droplets appeared, which then flew toward the silver needles, trickling down into the old man’s body.
At the same time, Ye Chen closed his eyes and tapped the old man’s forehead.
He began to channel his true qi into the old man’s body.
After a full ten minutes, a trickle of sweat had already appeared on Ye Chen’s forehead.
This was extremely exhausting. If he had not advanced to the true soul realm, he might have already collapsed from exhaustion.
As the true qi flowed through the old man’s body, his pale face gradually turned rosier, and his eyelashes began to tremble.
Seeing this scene, the surroundings were as quiet as a graveyard at midnight. There was not even the sound of breathing.
All the members of the Jiang family widened their eyes and stood rooted to the ground like statues!
Jiang Jianfeng and Jiang Wentian were shocked!
Jiang Wentian knew how serious the old man’s injuries were. Even the medical grandmasters of the Kunlun Mountains might not be able to save him! However, Ye Chen was working a miracle right now!
He stared at Ye Chen. Could it be that this man of mortal roots, who was once regarded as a b*stard by the Jiang family, was someone who was well-versed in both medicine and martial arts?
Powerful martial arts strength, coupled with unfathomable medical skills!
He was only in his twenties!
The spiritual energy in Huaxia was so thin, yet such a monster was somehow born here!
How was this possible?
“Yes…”
At this moment, a groan sounded as the old man suddenly opened his eyes.
Old Master Jiang was awake!
At this moment, everyone was filled with awe and astonishment.
A person who was about to die had woken up after just ten minutes of treatment. What kind of medical god was Ye Chen?
“Dad! How do you feel?” Jiang Jianfeng and Jiang Wentian asked in unison. Old Master Jiang did not answer the two of them. Instead, he looked at Ye Chen with a complicated expression.
He naturally knew who had saved him.
He had never regretted any of his decisions in his life!
It was because of him that the Jiang family of Huaxia prospered. However, at this moment, he really regretted the decision back then.
If it was a huge mistake to chase Jiang Rong away, then giving up on Ye Chen was a capital offense..
