Chapter 64: Slandering Jiang Chen, Han Invites the Divine Doctor

Upon hearing Cao Moling state that Jiang Chen was a high-tier martial arts grandmaster, and subsequently hearing Jiang Chen declare his intention to kill her own master—who was also a high-tier martial arts grandmaster—the alluring woman nearly lost her mind.

Since when had high-tier martial arts grandmasters become so worthless?

"Cao Moling, you two knew each other all along, didn't you? You're playing along with this brat to put on a show!"

Disregarding her injuries, the alluring woman distorted her face in a grimace and shrieked, "Junior Brother Han said no man would ever want a black widow like you, but now it's clear you must be sleeping with this brat!"

"Otherwise, why would you discipline your own niece just to vent the anger of a little man who is merely a high-tier martial arts master, and even exaggerate by calling him a high-tier martial arts grandmaster?"

She convinced herself that this was the most plausible explanation. After all, Jiang Chen was tall, handsome, and full of youthful vigor, perfectly capable of satisfying Cao Moling's desires—a fact she couldn't deny, even though she wanted to kill him.

The proprietress and the onlookers were all dumbfounded. If everything the alluring woman was saying was true, this was bound to be massive news!

Even Cao Moling, her daughter Linghu Xin, Jiang Chen, and Su Jinxi were momentarily stunned.

"You're courting death!"

Seeing the alluring woman spout such nonsense, Cao Moling let out a furious roar and moved to strike.

She would have loved to marry Jiang Chen, but unfortunately, Jiang Chen showed no interest in her. Moreover, she had even offered to marry her daughter off to him, only for Jiang Chen to refuse.

"You're panicking! That means I guessed right! You're humiliated and enraged, and now you want to silence me!"

The alluring woman laughed hideously. "Let me warn you, my master is a genuine high-tier martial arts grandmaster, not some low-end knockoff like your little toy boy! If you dare to kill me, my master will surely slaughter every single one of you!"

Cao Moling halted her movements. If she killed the alluring woman now, wouldn't she be validating the rumors and truly committing murder to silence a witness?

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh... Swish, swish, swish, swish..."

Jiang Chen made his move. Four streams of genuine Qi burst forth like shooting stars, cleanly severing the alluring woman's hands and legs respectively. Blood gushed out, staining the floor crimson.

"Ah, ah, ah... Qi projection... You really are a martial arts grandmaster?!"

Excruciating pain wracked the woman's body as she wailed like a ghost, no longer daring to doubt Jiang Chen's terrifying strength. Severing her limbs from a distance—such lethality was far beyond the capabilities of an early-tier martial arts grandmaster!

The proprietress, whose resolve had been somewhat shaken earlier, collapsed to the ground in terror. Her aunt couldn't possibly be lying; this Mr. Jiang was indeed a high-tier martial arts grandmaster!

Beholding this bloody and horrifying scene, some people at the private room's entrance were frightened to the point of vomiting, while others wet themselves in sheer terror!

"Jiang Chen, I want to leave this place..."

Feeling physically unwell, Su Jinxi murmured to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen almost forgot that Su Jinxi was an ordinary person and could not stomach such a spectacle. Without hesitation, he scooped her up in his arms and carried her out of the private room.

"Master Cao, they might be members of the Myriad Poison Sect. Interrogate them yourself; you don't need to search for that middle-aged Yamato man in the photograph anymore."

Leaving behind these words, Jiang Chen carried Su Jinxi and continued out of the Western restaurant.

"Yes, thank you, Mr. Jiang!"

Gazing at Jiang Chen's retreating back, Cao Moling expressed her gratitude.

The fact that Jiang Chen merely crippled the alluring woman instead of killing her was clearly meant to allow her to interrogate the whereabouts of the Evil Cloud Poison Master so that Cao Moling could avenge herself!

Su Jinxi deeply relished the sensation of being held in Jiang Chen's arms. If she hadn't been utterly exhausted and unable to walk, she would never have had such a wonderful opportunity.

When Jiang Chen gently placed her in the back seat of the car to rest, she felt a lingering reluctance to let go.

"I'll take you to buy some restorative tonics to nourish your body first, and then I'll send you home."

Jiang Chen settled into the driver's seat, glancing at Su Jinxi as he spoke.

"Mmm."

Su Jinxi nodded obediently, feeling a sweet warmth blossom in her heart. It felt almost as if the two of them were on a date.

...

At the Linhzhou Central Hospital, the lights of the operating room were still brightly lit.

Han Qiyue had been rushed here for emergency treatment by the security guards of the Western restaurant.

Upon learning that his son's manhood had been destroyed, Han Fengxu, the head of the Han family, rushed over in a towering rage.

Not only did the hospital dean arrange the finest medical resources to treat Han Qiyue, but he also set aside his own work to personally receive Han Fengxu. The face of the head of the Han family—one of Linhzhou's five great families—could not be ignored.

"Dean Sun, has my son's injury been treated successfully?"

Exuding the commanding aura of a man in power, Han Fengxu demanded sternly, his expression dark with anger.

"Family Head Han, Young Master Han is currently undergoing emergency surgery. He is not yet out of danger..."

Dean Sun's face was grave as he answered truthfully.

"What did you say? What is your hospital even good for? I don't care what methods you use; you must save my son and heal his injuries!"

Shocked and furious, Han Fengxu issued a tyrannical command to Dean Sun.

Dean Sun wore a look of helpless distress. He had already consulted the doctors: it would be a miracle if Han Qiyue managed to keep his life; his destroyed manhood had lost too much blood to be saved, and combined with a comminuted fracture of his entire right arm, curing him would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens!

Helplessly, he said, "Family Head Han, our hospital's best doctors and finest medicines have all been deployed for Young Master Han. I truly have no other options left, unless..."

"Unless what?"

Han Fengxu hurriedly asked.

"Unless Family Head Han can find the miraculous doctor who cured Elder Chu!"

Dean Sun suggested, "I heard that the illness Elder Chu suffered from, which our hospital couldn't cure, has already been healed. Perhaps that person could cure Young Master Han as well!"

Only then did Han Fengxu recall this matter. Tonight, Elder Chu was still hosting a banquet at the Tianlin Grand Hotel. The Han family hadn't sent anyone to attend, and by this time, it should have concluded.

He immediately issued an order to the driver and bodyguards behind him: "Go to the Chu family residence, find out the identity of the miraculous doctor who cured Elder Chu, and invite him over here. Hurry!"

"Yes, Family Head!"

The driver and bodyguards immediately executed the order, driving toward the Chu family estate.

...

The Chu family villa blazed with brilliant lights.

Elder Chu had instructed Chu Yan to wait for Jiang Chen to return. Yao Bing accompanied Chu Yan, sitting on the sofa, though she had no desire whatsoever to wait for Jiang Chen.

"Elder Chu shouldn't have publicly announced the marriage between you and Jiang Chen. I bet the entire Linhzhou will know about it very soon. How on earth are you going to get a divorce then?"

Yao Bing complained. Had she not been nursing injuries at the villa, she definitely would have stopped Elder Chu at the banquet scene.

"A wall has ears, and paper can't wrap up fire. Sooner or later, people would find out, and Grandfather would never consent to a divorce between Jiang Chen and me anyway!"

What Chu Yan was currently pondering was not this issue, but rather the commercial war against Wen Ruoxuan.

"That troublemaker Jiang Chen, apart from causing trouble, what other skills does he even have?"

Yao Bing held a deep resentment toward Jiang Chen. The mere memory of tearing open her clothes and hugging Jiang Chen while running a fever made her feel nauseous.

"Miss, someone from the Han family has come to visit, wishing to see the Elder Master and asking the miraculous doctor son-in-law to come and treat an illness!"

A newly hired bodyguard of the Chu family approached Chu Yan and reported.

Upon hearing this, Yao Bing's mouth twitched. She had just claimed that Jiang Chen had no skills, and someone immediately showed up to ask Jiang Chen to practice medicine. Wasn't this a direct slap to her face?

The Han family ranked fourth among Linhzhou's five great families; not only were they above the Chu family, but their assets were also twice that of the Chu family, representing a strength that could not be underestimated!

The Chu Corporation was currently embroiled in a business war against Wen Ruoxuan. If the Chu family could secure the assistance of the Han family, their chances of winning would increase significantly.

Without disturbing her grandfather, Chu Yan picked up her phone and dialed Jiang Chen's number. As it turned out, Jiang Chen's medical skills were actually quite useful.

"Jiang Chen, someone is looking for you to treat an illness. Come back for a moment; I have something to discuss with you!"

"Alright, I'll be right back!"

On the other end of the line, Jiang Chen was still in the process of sending Su Jinxi home.
