Medical and Martial God Chapter 347: Who Beat You into This Mess

"Wang Dazhuang, what you’re saying is too shocking. How could Master Lu possibly be a fabricated character? That’s impossible," Jin Lian challenged.

The gamblers also didn’t believe Master Lu was a persona created by Old Wang, but they dared not voice their doubts. The man, Wang Dazhuang, was simply too uncanny. No one ever trusted what he said, yet his predictions always ca true.

"If you want proof, it’s very simple!" Ye Xiu shrugged. "We just need to report this to the authorities. Let the Patrol Officers arrest all the shills that ’Master Lu’ supposedly helped and interrogate them. The truth will co out."

At this, Ye Xiu’s gaze sharpened as he stared at Old Wang. "Mr. Wang," he asked coldly, "would you like to report this?"

"No, don’t report it..." Old Wang trembled, dropping to his knees with a thud. "Mr. Wang, please, don’t report it! I know I was wrong. I’ll return their money. Please give a chance to turn over a new leaf. I’ll never dare to do it again..."

Old Wang was scared witless. He now realized his plan had a fatal flaw, one that could easily land him in prison.

Seeing Old Wang’s attitude, Jin Lian and the gamblers were utterly stunned. Master Lu really was fabricated by Old Wang.

"Then return the money. As for Fei Xiang’s share, just transfer it to Jin Lian," Ye Xiu said with a small smile.

"Yes, yes, I’ll return it, I’ll return it..." Old Wang was completely subservient, not daring to entertain the slightest thought of resistance.

Soon, Old Wang had returned the money to all 28 victims and transferred Fei Xiang’s winnings to Jin Lian.

"Mr. Wang, how did you know Master Lu was a fraud? And how did you realize that he and Old Wang were working together?" soone couldn’t help but ask.

At this question, Jin Lian and all the gamblers turned to look at Ye Xiu curiously. Even Old Wang and Master Lu couldn’t understand how Ye Xiu had seen through their sche.

"I have a pair of eyes that can see through the affairs of the world," Ye Xiu said mysteriously, having no ti to explain it to them.

Seeing Ye Xiu’s refusal to elaborate, the gamblers lost interest and began to leave one by one. In no ti, only Ye Xiu and Jin Lian, the two outsiders, remained at the Qingfeng Road Jade Stone Gambling Festival.

"Wang Dazhuang, do you have any idea what a great thing you’ve ruined for ?" Old Wang snarled, his expression turning fierce as his true intentions were laid bare.

Just then, dozens of thugs sward in, surrounding Ye Xiu and Jin Lian.

"What? You want to take your anger out on by giving a beating?" Ye Xiu sneered.

"A beating? You’re severely underestimating my rage," Old Wang said viciously. "I’ll give you two choices. First, compensate for my losses. Second, I’ll have you both beaten to death."

Ye Xiu casually waved his hand, and a nearby head-sized raw stone flew into his grasp. With a CRUNCH, he crushed it to pieces.

Smiling, he asked Old Wang, "What was that you said?"

Old Wang: "..."

The dozens of thugs: "..."

Master Lu and all the staff: "..."

They stared in shock at Ye Xiu’s hand.

My God! That was a rock, not a piece of Styrofoam! He just crushed it like that?

It was only then that Old Wang realized Ye Xiu was a Martial Artist, and a very powerful one at that.

"Heh, uh, Mr. Wang, I was just kidding with you. Please, don’t get the wrong idea, heh heh..." Old Wang broke out in a cold sweat, hurriedly bowing and scraping as he stamred an apology with a fawning smile.

"I was just joking, too." Ye Xiu smiled faintly. "Mr. Wang, could you do a favor and have Raw Stone No. 1 delivered to the Jin Family?"

"No problem, no problem at all, Mr. Wang. Rest assured, I’ll personally lead the team to deliver it," Old Wang said repeatedly.

"Jin Lian, give him your grandfather’s address," Ye Xiu instructed.

Jin Lian was stunned. "Why are you sending Raw Stone No. 1 to my grandfather’s house?"

"It’s a birthday present for your grandfather," Ye Xiu said.

Jin Lian’s expression imdiately darkened. Raw Stone No. 1 was just a ten-ton piece of useless rock. Was he trying to anger her grandfather to death by giving him that as a birthday gift?

「The Jin Family Estate」

Jin Lian’s grandfather, Jin Peng, was playing a ga of chess with Fei Xiang’s grandfather, Fei Yihong. The courtyard was teeming with a massive crowd of guests who had co to offer their birthday wishes.

"Jin Peng, my friend, your influence in the business world truly makes feel inadequate," Fei Yihong said with a smile. The number of guests celebrating Jin Peng’s birthday this year was several tis greater than in previous years. Furthermore, they were all prominent figures in the business world, which made Fei Yihong incredibly envious.

"They aren’t really here for my birthday," Jin Peng said with a wry smile. "Their intentions lie elsewhere."

"My friend, I’m afraid I don’t understand what you an," Fei Yihong said, looking puzzled.

"My friend, have you heard about Divine Doctor Ye Xiu joining forces with the Bao Family to enter the dical industry?" Jin Peng asked.

"There’s probably no one in the world who hasn’t," Fei Yihong replied. "Could it be that these people are here for your birthday because of Ye Xiu?"

"They are all here for Divine Doctor Ye Xiu!" Jin Peng said with another wry smile. "Ye Xiu and the Bao Family are joining forces to enter the global dical industry. It’s a tempting cake that many people want a piece of. However, Ye Xiu is only looking for partners on Qi Yun Dao, which has crushed their hopes. So now, they’re trying to get a share of Ye Xiu’s table scraps through ."

Fei Yihong’s eyes lit up, his breathing quickening. "Jin Peng, are you well-acquainted with Ye Xiu?" His eyes glinted with greed. Clearly, if Jin Peng had a good relationship with Ye Xiu, the Fei Family would also want to use the Jin Family to get a taste of those scraps.

"I’m not so fortunate," Jin Peng said with a self-deprecating smile. "It was my son who had the privilege of seeing the Divine Doctor once, at a party hosted by Bao Longtu. However, the Divine Doctor was a master of diplomacy there. To those seeking partnerships, he neither refused nor agreed.

"I’m also worried about this. The Jin Family is financially weak and lacks influence compared to our competitors on Qi Yun Dao. I fear the Divine Doctor won’t even give the Jin Family a second glance."

Hearing this, Fei Yihong was secretly disappointed but decided to stay on Qingfeng Road for a few more days. He would try to find a way to latch on to Ye Xiu or, failing that, the Bao Family. The global dical market was too enormous a prize. Even a few crumbs from Ye Xiu’s table would be worth decades of the Fei Family’s own efforts.

"Mom, Dad, Grandpa..."

Just then, an aggrieved, tearful voice called out from outside.

"What’s going on?" Jin Peng and Fei Yihong exchanged glances. Forgetting their chess ga, they rose and had just reached the door when they saw a man with a bruised and swollen face run into the courtyard.

Who is this? Jin Peng and Fei Yihong were montarily taken aback.

"My son? Son, is that you?" a beautiful, middle-aged woman asked uncertainly as she approached the bruised man.

"Mom, it’s . I’m Fei Xiang," he said with an aggrieved sob.

Upon hearing that this person was Fei Xiang, the eldest young master of the Fei Family, everyone present sucked in a breath of cold air. The faces of Jin Peng and Fei Yihong changed instantly.

"Fei Xiang, who beat you into this sorry state?" Fei Yihong demanded as he hurried over.

"It was Jin Lian’s boyfriend, Wang Dazhuang," Fei Xiang whined, though he was secretly delighted.

In truth, Ye Xiu had only slapped him once, leaving nothing more than a handprint on his face. His face looked this way because he had paid soone to beat him up after leaving the Jade Stone Gambling Festival.

He had done this for three reasons.

First, to fra ’Wang Dazhuang’.

Second, he was here to celebrate Jin Peng’s birthday, yet Jin Lian’s boyfriend had beaten him to a pulp. This was a clear act of provocation, creating an enemy for the Jin Family. They would never allow Jin Lian to be with ’Wang Dazhuang’ after this.

Third, the Fei and Jin families had been friends for generations. To appease the Fei Family, the Jin Family would have no choice but to deal with ’Wang Dazhuang’.
