Ouyang Xiu, filled with excitent, started coughing. His friend Li Jing quickly patted his back to smooth his Qi.
"Dad, are you okay?"
Ouyang ijia was also startled. Her father was fine in every other way, but he had a weak heart and could easily fall ill when excited. Her unreliable brother had hurt their father nurous tis.
Chen Tianlong gave a bitter smile. Patriarch Ouyang seed frail, yet Ouyang ijia claid he could help cure illnesses. At that mont, Chen Tianlong found it hard to believe.
"I’m fine... By the way, ijia, who caught Ouyang Jian’s misdeeds?" Suddenly, Ouyang Xiu raised his head, his expression turning extrely serious.
"Well... it was this... what’s your na?"
Ouyang ijia was about to address him but realized she didn’t even know his na, though he had seen everything of hers.
"My na is Chen Tianlong!" At this ti, Chen Tianlong couldn’t remain calm. Regardless of whether the man could cure an illness, he had to try, "I know all about your son’s actions, and the insiders might have already reported to the authorities. As long as the Manor Master agrees to one request, I’ll withdraw my accusation against your son!"
"Are you threatening ?"
After hearing Chen Tianlong’s words, Ouyang Xiu glared angrily, appearing ready to act impulsively.
At this mont, Ouyang ijia clearly noticed the tension and hurriedly stood in front of Chen Tianlong, saying, "Dad, please don’t be aggressive. Chen Tianlong... he is a good person. His friend seems to have contracted a strange illness and is just anxious."
"Oh? A strange illness?"
Hearing his daughter plead for Chen Tianlong, Ouyang Xiu took a deep breath. He was well-researched in many complex diseases, and hearing Ouyang ijia say this piqued his interest.
Moreover, if the young man really agreed not to accuse his son, helping him wouldn’t be out of the question.
Ouyang Xiu swiftly moved in front of Chen Tianlong and imdiately grabbed Wu ngting’s wrist, feeling her pulse with fluid motions, without any delay.
This action left Chen Tianlong dumbfounded. Just a mont ago, Ouyang Xiu appeared frail; now, he moved swiftly, making it hard for Chen Tianlong to believe.
"Heart-Burning Gu?"
About a minute later, Ouyang Xiu suddenly said those three words, leaving Chen Tianlong’s mouth agape in an "O" shape, as if he had seen a ghost.
When Tan Tian’s master ntioned the Heart-Burning Gu, Chen Tianlong wasn’t surprised, after all, he’s a Divine Doctor. But he had never t this Manor Master and didn’t know if he knew any dical Skills.
Now it seed he was indeed an expert, recognizing the illness at a glance.
"Senior, can you treat this disease?"
Since Ouyang Xiu identified the disease, Chen Tianlong beca sowhat excited and asked because he could cure it.
"I can’t!"
Ouyang Xiu answered decisively, with no hesitation, because he had seen this poison before, and those afflicted by such Gu Poison typically faced a single outco — death!
"Then do you know if there’s any other way to cure it?"
Chen Tianlong asked urgently.
"I know, but... it’s impossible for you to obtain the necessary dicinal ingredient!" Ouyang Xiu answered firmly.
"Are you referring to the Ice Spirit Fruit?"
"Young man, how do you know?"
"Oh, an elder told ; he said to go to Ice City! So..."
"Hmph, you better give up on that idea. Going to Ice City, I’m afraid you’ll both not return after failing to cure anyone."
After a short conversation, Ouyang Xiu’s attitude suddenly changed significantly, his tone becoming stern.
"I’m sorry, but I’m determined to go to Ice City." Faced with Ouyang Xiu’s attitude, Chen Tianlong remained unfazed, turned to Ouyang ijia, and said, "I’m sorry, since you can’t help , I can’t fulfill my promise. Goodbye!"
With that, Chen Tianlong turned to leave.
At this mont, he suddenly felt a strong Palm Wind heading toward him. Chen Tianlong dodged swiftly, though carrying Wu ngting made him less agile. So his back was still grazed, causing a sharp pain.
After turning around, Chen Tianlong flicked his hand, and three silver needles dropped into his hand. He threw them forward, and they flew like lightning.
Ouyang Xiu was startled and hurried to dodge, but he widened his eyes in recognition of the technique.
"Boy, who exactly are you, and how do you know the Hidden Weapons Sect’s Ultimate Skill? What’s your relation to Yan Nanfei?" Seeing this, Ouyang Xiu didn’t dare act rashly. This was Yan Nanfei’s trump card years ago, and now that this Martial Technique had reappeared in the martial world, he had to take it seriously.
"Sorry, I can’t divulge that, farewell!"
Chen Tianlong didn’t want his identity to be known, so he turned and left.
However.
Ouyang Jian wasn’t about to let him go. Firstly, his son’s future was in Chen Tianlong’s hands. Secondly, the reappearance of the Soul-Stealing Three Needles piqued his great interest.
From the proficiency shown by Chen Tianlong earlier, it was evident that the Soul-Stealing Three Needles hadn’t reached its peak.
But that was normal; it was said that Yan Nanfei had only achieved the additional effect, the Three-Cube Needle, when he reached a certain level of strength.
"Think you can leave? Not so easily."
Ouyang Xiu made a quick step forward, forming his right hand into a claw shape, reaching for Chen Tianlong’s back. But Chen Tianlong didn’t delay, he imdiately placed Wu ngting by the door and struck out with a powerful punch.
"Boom..."
Ouyang Xiu hadn’t anticipated Chen Tianlong’s strength to be so robust and quickly took two steps back.
"Oh, kid, pretty good, you’ve got so skills, quite strong!"
After a cold laugh, Ouyang Xiu suddenly stood straight, lightly closing his eyes as if taking a deep breath.
But the experienced Chen Tianlong imdiately recognized that Ouyang Xiu was using the Qi of the Dantian.
Ancient Martial Cultivator!
Once again, Chen Tianlong exclaid these four words in his heart. Ever since Ouyang Jian appeared, Chen Tianlong had anticipated that this family might all be Ancient Martial Cultivators capable of using internal force.
So, seeing Ouyang Xiu’s current stance, Chen Tianlong imdiately started reciting the mantra his father had taught him. As for its na, he still didn’t know so far.
However, last ti, Madman Xu ntioned sothing about Reverse Force.
He wasn’t sure if the move was called Reverse Force or if this was the na for the mantra he learned.
Ten seconds later, Ouyang Jian suddenly opened his eyes, burst with all his strength, and charged toward Chen Tianlong. Chen Tianlong did not back down, he kicked back with his right foot and sprang forth like a hunting leopard.
"Boom..."
As their fists collided, the energy that burst forth made the nearby objects on the tables tremble slightly.
Internal Force!
This kid can actually use internal force too, could he be an Ancient Martial Artist?
Thinking of this, Ouyang Xiu retreated two steps and began to evaluate Chen Tianlong. But Chen Tianlong had simply faced him head-on and had stopped reciting the mantra during the collision.
