Chapter 584 — Wei Zhao Wounded

The Blossom Guardian

Wei Zhao gave a cold laugh, glanced at the young master lying on the ground, then looked at Uncle Zhu and said, "What I came to do is done. Leave Songshan City, or I might recall his misdeeds at some unpredictable moment!"

A threat! A naked threat, and Uncle Zhu's expression shifted at once. Since advancing to the Mystic Rank, when had he ever been threatened by anyone? After all, in the secular world, Mystic Rank experts were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, yet this youth who looked not even twenty truly possessed the strength of an early Mystic Rank!

"Don't be so arrogant. Always leave a way out for others. Your strength is hardly enough to look down on the masses..." But before Uncle Zhu could finish, Wei Zhao had already turned and walked away!

Ignored! Nakedly ignored again, and Uncle Zhu's face grew even uglier. Yet he was utterly helpless. In a hard fight with Wei Zhao, no one could say who would die, and Uncle Zhu truly had no recourse at all!

Besides, at this moment he was like a spent arrow at the end of its flight, having forced himself to step forward, and he felt he might collapse at any second.

Wei Zhao climbed into the van, and Fatty Lai, who had long been waiting inside, gave him a thumbs-up. "Boss, you were incredible! In that situation, you dared to cripple both of Zhao Qibing's legs!"

"Drive!" Wei Zhao abruptly coughed up a mouthful of blood that spurted straight onto the windshield, and then he began coughing without stop!

"Boss, what's wrong?" Fatty Lai was startled. He had thought Wei Zhao had been magnificent back there, never guessing that Wei Zhao was injured!

"Drive, quickly, find a quiet place." Wei Zhao panted rapidly, ordering Fatty Lai.

Fatty Lai nodded, not daring to delay, and quickly started the car, vanishing from the area around the Qibing Tower in a flash! He had intended to take Wei Zhao to a hospital, but then he thought: Wei Zhao was a divine doctor himself, so why go to a hospital? If he asked for a quiet place, he surely had his reasons!

With that in mind, Fatty Lai sped toward his own villa.

Wei Zhao had only been holding on by a single breath until now, the conviction in his heart being to vent Tang Zhi's grievance, so after forcibly taking Uncle Zhu's palm strike, he had never once let his injury show! He had indeed wanted to do something to Zhao Qibing just now, but he could not hold out any longer!

Wei Zhao had never expected that beside an illegitimate son there would be an early Mystic Rank expert! Were Mystic Rank experts too cheap, or was that so-called hidden family simply too powerful?

He had truly underestimated his opponent. He had thought he could make sure Zhao Qibing did not live past this year, but he had failed! Originally, making a person die a slow death was Wei Zhao's specialty. Wei Zhao might not kill Zhao Qibing today, but that did not mean he would not kill him tomorrow or thereafter!

Wei Zhao felt an indescribable agony, his five viscera and six bowels all displaced! An early Mystic Rank inner-strength expert was, so to speak, on par with Wei Zhao's own strength, only Wei Zhao had cultivated the Xuanyuan Dragon Taming Art, so after taking that palm strike he could still hold on long enough to disfigure Zhao Qibing and break both his legs, while Uncle Zhu had nearly passed out.

When they reached Fatty Lai's villa, Fatty Lai did not even bother to lock the car. In fact, at the gate of his own villa, the car would not be stolen even unlocked.

Fatty Lai helped Wei Zhao back into the villa, and Fatty Lai's wife was startled. She was about to ask something, but Fatty Lai glared her into silence. He helped Wei Zhao into the guest room, and Wei Zhao smiled bitterly and said, "Stand guard at the door. Don't let anyone disturb me."

"Yes, boss!" Fatty Lai nodded hurriedly, closed the door for Wei Zhao, and stood guard outside.

Wei Zhao collapsed straight onto the bed and entered the jade pendant space. Only by absorbing a large amount of pure energy could his injuries recover quickly. Thank goodness he had such a treasure. If an ordinary person were in this world with its thin true qi, without wonder elixirs they could only wait for death!

In fact, Uncle Zhu felt he was about to die! After Wei Zhao left, Li Cihua finally dared to run over. He knew Wei Zhao's strength. Two Yellow Rank experts had already become unjust ghosts beneath Wei Zhao's hand. Although he did not know what rank this Uncle Zhu was, to personally attend the young master's side, he was clearly a being even stronger than those two Yellow Rank experts! Could he be a Mystic Rank expert? Li Cihua did not dare imagine!

Such a formidable being had actually been beaten by Wei Zhao until he coughed up blood? This... just what was Wei Zhao's strength?

"Young master, how are you?" Li Cihua ran over and first examined Zhao Qibing's injuries. After all, if Uncle Zhu died, so be it, but if Zhao Qibing died, the matter would become enormous!

"The young master is fine, only his legs are broken! I cannot hold on much longer. Call the family head quickly and have the Medicine King come save me!" Uncle Zhu knew his own condition. Without a wonder elixir, if he relied solely on his own recovery, he feared he would be dead within a few days.

Li Cihua was startled. Hearing Uncle Zhu's words, he hurriedly dialed the family head's number...

Meanwhile, An Liwen, Su Taizao, and the others watching from behind were also astonished by Wei Zhao's audacity! He had actually dared to openly injure someone right here! Of course, An Liwen, Su Taizao, and even the others, Li Cihua included, did not know Uncle Zhu's true strength!

If An Liwen, Su Taizao, and the others had known that Uncle Zhu was a Xuan-rank expert, they would probably have been astonished beyond measure. This Wei Zhao was simply too formidable—to defeat a Xuan-rank expert with a single palm strike? They had not noticed that Wei Zhao was injured, and so they even assumed Uncle Zhu was nothing more than a mediocre bodyguard.

By this time, however, none of them dared to come over. Everyone knew of Young Master Bing's mysterious background, so approaching now would only make Young Master Bing lose more face—would that not be asking for humiliation? The completion ceremony for the Qibing Tower had already become a joke. Completion? What completion? The building had been torn down by someone else!

Li Cihua had never expected Wei Zhao to be so ruthless. Not only had he brought men to demolish the Qibing Tower, he had even broken both of Young Master Bing's legs! How could this man be so utterly unbridled? Li Cihua felt that he himself was already a thoroughly domineering figure in Songshan City, but compared with Wei Zhao, he fell far, far short!

When he thought of how he had once threatened Wei Zhao, Li Cihua could not help but feel a chill of lingering fear. If Wei Zhao had truly meant to settle scores with him, then the Geli Fuyun Bar would surely no longer exist by now, would it? Li Cihua sighed. It seemed he had truly underestimated this opponent. The fact that Gu Pengzhan had brought this Wei Zhao in clearly showed that he was no ordinary man!

Watching Uncle Zhu teeter on the brink of death, Li Cihua hurriedly dialed the family head's number: "Boss, this is Li Cihua..."
