Peerless Little Immortal Doctor
Chapter 1039 - 1043: Yao Kun's Dilemma

"Huachun City: Yao Kun."

The young man coldly glanced at Old Tie, unfazed by any stares at the scene.

Ding!

Old Tie felt a buzz inside his head.

Yao Kun!

The most talented monster martial artist among the younger generation in Huachun City.

At the age of twenty-nine, his cultivation has reached the Heavenly Rank High Level.

He is also the destined next Family Head of the Yao Family.

Which means, offending Yao Kun is equivalent to offending the Yao Family!

The Yao Family in Huachun City is a terrifying existence akin to the Four Super Clans in Yanjing.

Even in Bitter Realm Town, no one dares to offend the Yao Family.

Not to mention the Iron Blood Teahouse, which only has a Peak Earth Rank Warrior in charge.

A single Yao Kun could crush the Iron Blood Teahouse.

"Yao Kun! Young Master of the Yao Family!"

"I recall! Yao Kun, the most talented monster martial artist in Huachun City, the next Family Head of the Yao Family!"

"He's twenty-nine years old and has reached Heavenly Rank High-Level cultivation!"

"My heavens! It's actually Yao Kun!"

Some outsiders hearing Yao Kun's name couldn't help but be astonished.

Those martial artists cooperating with Old Tie trembled in body and mind.

If they were exposed, and Yao Kun got angry, killing them would just be a thought away!

"Old Tie, your acting is too fake; if I weren't here today, I don't know how many more people you'd deceive."

"Young Master Yao, I know my mistake, I beg for your forgiveness."

Old Tie wanted to cry.

He had never seen Yao Kun; if he knew Yao Kun was in the audience, he absolutely wouldn't have bragged.

"Tell everyone whether Chief Xia has ever bought information from you."

Yao Kun stared at Old Tie; if he dared to lie, the outcome would be absolutely tragic!

"No! I swear, Chief Xia is such a terrifying existence, how could I have had the chance to meet him."

Old Tie raised both palms, his face showing unprecedented seriousness.

Cold sweat broke out all over him; if he didn't tell the truth, he'd be dead today.

"Damn! You actually dared to deceive us!"

"What the hell! What's really going on!"

"How can it be like this! I want the same information as Chief Xia!"

...

"Everyone please forgive me, I have never seen Chief Xia, nor has he ever come to the Bitter Realm Region; everything was fabricated by me, intended solely to sell you information at a high price."

Unable to withstand Yao Kun's gaze, Old Tie revealed the truth all at once.

After knowing the truth, most people just cursed softly a few times, then sighed.

Old Tie didn't deceive them, so if they cursed too much and offended a Peak Earth Rank Warrior,

it would be disastrously bad for them.

Therefore, for safety's sake, they decided to let Yao Kun handle this matter.

As for the accomplices, each fell silent, not daring to speak.

If Old Tie exposed them, and they were jumping around so happily, wouldn't that be seeking death?

"Heh, probably no one in Bitter Realm Town has the real information on Loulan, and I bet you haven't even seen Chief Xia."

Looking at the silent group, Yao Kun knew what they were thinking.

Even if they were deceived today,

later on, they wouldn't dare do anything to Old Tie.

After all, no one at the scene had a higher cultivation than Old Tie.

Moreover, Bitter Realm Town is backed by a powerful figure.

In Huachun City, it is only the Yao Family that can rival this powerful figure.

Otherwise, Old Tie wouldn't be so panicked when seeing a Heavenly Rank martial artist.

"Young Master Yao is absolutely right; someone like Chief Xia, akin to a god, can only be seen by someone with Young Master Yao's status and talent."

Old Tie nodded fiercely, constantly praising Yao Kun.

As long as he makes Yao Kun happy, he'll be absolutely safe.

However, his words made Yao Kun feel slightly embarrassed because he hadn't seen Xia Liu either.

Xia Liu was also someone he admired and revered in his heart.

"Young Master Yao is truly impressive! He has even met Chief Xia."

"Certainly, Young Master Yao likely attended the Osmanthus Sect's grand opening ceremony."

"Why say 'likely'; he definitely attended, as the Yao Family can rival the Four Super Clans."

"Yes, yes, truly enviable."

"Young Master Yao, can you tell us about Chief Xia?"

"Yes, none of us have seen him, we really want to know about Chief Xia."

...

As they spoke, their eyes flickered with curiosity.

Xia Liu is practically everyone's idol; they all want to know what the idol looks like and whether his strength is as legendary.

Facing the excited crowd, Yao Kun was momentarily at a loss.

He's never met Xia Liu, so how can he describe him?

If he doesn't say anything, he won't be able to keep his dignity today.

These people had already imposed this high status upon him.

But, how could he describe someone he's never met?

If Xia Liu weren't as youthful as legends say, when they learned the truth in the future, wouldn't they spread stories of his embarrassment?

This would attract countless ridicule when he eventually takes over the Yao Family.

They might not say it openly, but inwardly, they'd disdain him.

This is definitely very bad.

"Hello everyone, I'm Ma Xing, Young Master Yao's good friend; you want to know about Chief Xia? Let me say this: he is exactly as rumored, very young, with transcendent strength."

Ma Xing knew his friend Yao Kun's difficulty.

He's not well-known, so he can speak freely.

If Yao Kun said something wrong, he would be ridiculed in the future.

"Ah, that's too brief!"

"Yes, Brother Ma, can you say a bit more; you and Young Master Yao must have met Chief Xia."

"Right, right, say a bit more."

"We beseech you both."

...

With news about Xia Liu, the crowd grew excited.

Obviously, they had no chance to meet Xia Liu themselves.

Now, with some insiders present, they couldn't afford to miss this opportunity.

"Don't get too excited; I have seen Chief Xia too, and his appearance left a deep impression."

As Ma Xing faced a dilemma, a female lead at the same table stood up to speak.

"Hey, I've seen this woman somewhere."

"Yes! She's the eldest daughter of the Zhao Family in Huachun City, at the Mysterious Rank Peak level!"

"Miss Zhao Li!!"

"Miss Zhao, please tell us; we're eager to know about Chief Xia."

...

Knowing Zhao Li's identity, the previously hesitant crowd began to trust.

Although the Zhao Family is slightly inferior to the Yao Family, they also have the qualifications to attend the Osmanthus Sect's ceremony, so Zhao Li must have met Xia Liu.

Seeing the crowd's attention shift, Yao Kun cast a grateful gaze towards Zhao Li.

"How should I put it? Chief Xia is a person of integrity with unparalleled handsome looks, most notably his eyes, which are so deep you'd want to stare, but no matter how, you cannot discern what he has experienced; his pupils are clear, like an immortal."

"Moreover, he somewhat resembles that handsome guy..."

As she looked around the scene, Zhao Li pointed her finger towards a corner...
