en't aimed at Mu Han; instead, they were fixed on Xia Tian."What do you want" Mu Han continued to ask. Since Avril hadn't fired a gun yet, it meant she didn't intend to kill them immediately.Avril did...Chapter 1156: Might as Well Disintegrate Them
Song Yumei's concerns were not unfounded. A master like Yuan Tianzheng would be extremely troublesome if he decided to take revenge. With Yuan Tianzheng’s prowess, assassinating some ordinary people in a family would be relatively simple. Although the Song family had many masters, they were all merely ordinary experts who couldn't do much against a powerhouse like Yuan Tianzheng.
The only one in the current Song family capable of standing up to Yuan Tianzheng was Song Yumei herself, but she alone wouldn’t be able to protect everyone in her family.
"Don’t worry, Wife Meimei. Yuan Tianzheng is basically useless now; his injuries can't be healed unless I do it for him." Xia Tian wasn’t too concerned about this matter. Instead, he was more interested in something else: "I wonder who those two people are that took Yuan Tianzheng away and if they’re stronger."
"Two people" Song Yumei seemed surprised. "But I only saw one person. Right, the one who fought with me appeared to be a woman too."
"A woman" Xia Tian thought for a moment. "I think it was really her, but her voice sounded strange; not like a woman’s."
"Did you see another person" Song Yumei couldn’t help asking.
Xia Tian shook his head: "No, but I know that the one who took Yuan Tianzheng away wasn’t the one who fought with you. There must have been another person, and this person should be quite strong too—able to rescue someone without me noticing."
"You just let your guard down." Song Yumei softly comforted Xia Tian. In truth, she knew it was more than carelessness; he had also cared for her deeply, or else the other party wouldn’t have been able to take Yuan Tianzheng away so easily.
Song Yumei was certain that although those two individuals were formidable, they definitely weren't Summer's match. Otherwise, the other party wouldn't have resorted to such a method to save someone.
"Honey, what should we do now" Chu Yao rushed over and asked, "What about those two dead guys We need to find people to deal with them!"
In Jianghai, Chu Yao wouldn't have needed to ask Summer such a question. She could easily handle the disposal of two corpses herself. However, they were in the capital city now, and this time she had come alone. Originally, if the Chang family hadn't been implicated, she could have asked them to take care of it, but now Chu Yao could only rely on Summer to find a solution.
"Mu Han isn't in the capital city right now. If you're not convenient to handle this, I'll get someone else to deal with it," Song Yumei said softly.
"Hmm, actually, I still have some Corpse Dissolving Powder on me. I’ll just use that to dispose of them," Summer casually replied. The Corpse Dissolving Powder he had prepared in Wantan City was not yet used up; previously, he gave the unused powder to Ning Jie, who later returned it to him. That's why he still had some with him now.
Ten minutes later, under the effect of the Corpse Dissolving Powder, Yuan Shicai and that unknown man’s corpses disappeared completely. Throughout this entire incident, Summer never figured out why that person wanted to kill him or who exactly he was.
The vast Chang residence fell back into silence as if nothing had happened.
"I should head back now," Song Yumei spoke up; it was quite late already.
"Mimi, I'll go back with you," Summer said.
Song Yumei hesitated for a moment but still nodded: "Alright."
At midnight, Xia Tian brought Chu Yao to the Song family and followed Song Yumei to the room where Ye Yumei used to live.
The bed was still there, as well as the mosquito net, everything exactly the same as when Xia Tian came here last time. The difference was that back then, the owner of this room was Ye Yumei, a beautiful and curvaceous woman who was extremely annoying; now it belonged to Song Yumei, another equally beautiful and attractive fairy-like girl whom people found very likable. More importantly, when Xia Tian came here last time, he had been dragged against his will, whereas this time he came voluntarily with his wife by his side, which made the situation feel totally different.
"Husband, are we going to sleep in here" Chu Yao yawned and said that she was a bit sleepy.
"Yao Yao, I'm not sleeping for now. How about I let Wife Yumei find another room for you first" Xia Tian shook his head and said.
Chu Yao glanced at Song Yumei and whispered: "Husband wants to play all night long with someone else"
Hearing that, Song Yumei's pretty face turned slightly red. She wasn't stupid, she could easily understand Chu Yao's meaning, so she felt a bit bashful and concerned whether Xia Tian really wanted to do something tonight.
"I want to make Wife Yumei stronger, so tomorrow morning when she encounters someone as foolish but equally powerful as Yuan Tianzheng, she can just slap him dead with one palm." Xia Tian revealed his true intention. He turned around and said to Song Yumei: "Wife Yumei, tell your family members to send more guards outside; we don't want anyone disturbing us."
"Alright." Song Yumei immediately agreed.
"Husband, when can you make me as strong as her" Chu Yao looked a little unhappy.
"Yao Yao darling, you need to practice and become almost as powerful as Meimei darling first before I can enhance your strength. So, you have to work hard on training in the future," Xia Tian said with a smile.
"Alright, I understand." Chu Yao yawned again while speaking, "I'm so tired; I should go sleep now."
Unable to resist the urge to sleep any longer, Chu Yao went off to find somewhere to rest. Song Yumei also left temporarily to arrange accommodation for Chu Yao and to seek someone to guard her in the courtyard. Although Xia Tian hadn't mentioned it yet, she already guessed that he was going to perform acupuncture on her again.
The last time, Xia Tian used the heaven-defying eight needles to cleanse her marrow, turning a soft young girl into a martial arts expert and leading her onto the path of cultivation. She didn't know what would happen this time, but she trusted that Xia Tian could significantly improve her strength.
About half an hour later, Song Yumei returned to the room while the courtyard was already filled with experts from the Song family.
"Meimei darling, I'm going to perform the fifth heaven-defying needle on you. With five needles and pill formation complete, after this one is successfully performed, you will achieve Golden Core status. The Immortal Sister said that cultivators with a Golden Core are true cultivators." Xia Tian looked at Song Yumei as his expression turned serious, "Once you reach the Golden Core realm, even that dead woman Ye Yuemei won't be your match."
"Please don't talk about Aunty Meimei like that," Song Yumei said softly.
"Alright, considering your kindness, I'll temporarily refrain from cursing her," Xia Tian said. Though he didn't curse out loud, he cursed Ye Yuemei in his heart many times before continuing to speak to Song Yumei: "Meimei darling, lie down on the bed; this time, the acupuncture will take longer. Remember to maintain calmness and serenity throughout, and when you feel spiritual energy entering your body, start practicing the Ethereal Heart Technique right away. This way, the formation of Golden Core will be faster."
"Mmm, I remember." Song Yumei nodded, but her heart was slightly agitated. She actually knew about Jin Dan; she had read books on it before and Aunt Mei had also told her something about it. However, she never thought that this man could be so miraculous—using just a silver needle to create an expert in Jin Dan cultivation! This was truly a defying-the-heavens feat!
"No wonder they call them the Eight Defying-Heavens Needles!" Suddenly, Song Yumei seemed to understand. The Eight Defying-Heavens Needles might not be a treatment technique at all; it could very well have been a cultivation technique that defied the heavens!
Deeply inhaling, Song Yumei calmed herself down and then slowly lay down, waiting for the arrival of this miracle-defying-the-heavens.
The capital city had been in an uproar half the night, but by the next day everything seemed calm once more. It appeared to be no different from usual—at least not to ordinary citizens who wouldn't know that the police had arrested over ten thousand thugs last night or that a battle between non-ordinary people had occurred at the Chang Family.
Early morning, Yi Ren Pavilion.
I Xiao Yin stood quietly in the courtyard, with dawn light illuminating her beautiful face and making it radiate an incomparable charm.
"Miss." A voice came from behind I Xiao Yin, belonging to Ah Jiu.
"Is there something" I Xiao Yin didn't turn around but asked softly instead.
"Minister Liu’s son called. He wants to know how much this will cost," whispered Ah Jiu.
"About ten thousand," Yi Xiaoyin pondered for a moment before giving a figure and added at the end, "Consider this as the surgery fee; it can be settled together with other hospital expenses without the need to come specifically to me."
"Yes, Miss, I'll tell him right away." A Nine nodded her head and then went back into the room to make a call. After several minutes, she came out again.
After standing behind Yi Xiaoyin for a few minutes, A Nine couldn't help but ask again, "Miss, why is this fee so low this time"
"A Nine, in our case, making money in the future will rely on the hospital rather than myself. Therefore, we only need to charge symbolically this time," Yi Xiaoyin explained softly.
After a brief pause, Yi Xiaoyin continued, "A Nine, next, we should focus on planning for the management of the hospital."
"Miss, do you want me to tell the Sect Lady that you've successfully improved the Yin Sect's Needle Technique" A Nine hesitated slightly before asking.
"No need," Yi Xiaoyin shook her head. "I believe she will know soon without me having to say anything."
"This time, the Sect Lady is sure to pass on the position of Sect Leader to Miss, right" A Nine's tone had a hint of excitement, "Miss, your wish is finally going to come true."
"Yes, my wish is soon to be realized," Yi Xiaoyin said slowly as her voice became somewhat ethereal. Her wish was about to come true; she had improved the Yin Sect’s Needle Technique and found a stable path for the development of the Yin Medical Sect. However, the price she paid to achieve this wish seemed too high.did he recklessly provoke him Isn't this looking for troubleIn fact, although Pi Zhimin had taken over the position of director from Huang Anping's father, Huang Haitao, Huang Anping still held a rela...
