Chapter 539: Chapter 0541 Exterminate Insect Poisonous Insect

Tang You spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, incredulously staring at Huo Tianqian, "How is this possible?"

Was this still the Huo Tianqian who had poor control over ancient martial arts? Wasn’t he a Postnatal Martial Artist? Why could he defeat him, an Innate?

Tang You looked at Huo Tianqian in shock, "Did you take Forbidden Medicine?"

That was the only explanation; among ancient martial artists, there was a type of Forbidden Medicine that could temporarily enhance one’s strength.

Huo Tianqian’s martial arts skills were already in the Late Postnatal stage, even if he improved, it wouldn’t be by much, he definitely shouldn’t have broken through to Innate. Postnatal and Innate—the difference was like between heaven and earth, one heaven, one earth.

Thus, Tang You concluded that Huo Tianqian must have taken some Forbidden Medicine!

"Huo Tianqian, you actually dared to take Forbidden Medicine! Truly despicable by all under heaven!" Tang You clutched his chest, feeling as if all his internal organs were about to shatter.

"Heh, saying I took Forbidden Medicine because you can’t beat me?" Huo Tianqian sneered disdainfully, "Tang You, why don’t you say that your martial arts have regressed?"

Huo Tianqian’s face filled with contempt; he had thought he could have a good fight to stretch his muscles, but this person couldn’t even withstand a single feint from him. Boring!

This injury of Tang You’s wasn’t fatal, but it wasn’t minor either; it would take at least half a year’s recovery.

Huo Tianqian merely glanced at him briefly, then without further ado, turned his gaze to others, "You all, do you want to try together?"

Those people exchanged looks. Even Tang You couldn’t defeat him; even if they teamed up, they wouldn’t stand a chance and would only get beaten up!

Finally, after struggling for a while, those people turned and fled.

Huo Tianqian scoffed disdainfully, then turned back to Chu Ge.

Chu Ge looked at Huo Tianqian with some surprise; he originally thought Huo Tianqian would be harsh with these people, not leaving a single one.

But not only did Huo Tianqian spare Tang You’s life, but he also let the others go.

This truly surprised Chu Ge.

Huo Tianqian felt unnerved under Chu Ge’s piercing gaze, he scratched his head awkwardly, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chu, if you have something to say, just say it directly. Don’t stare at me like that, it makes me feel guilty."

Chu Ge laughed, "If you haven’t done anything wrong, why feel guilty?"

"..." Huo Tianqian was left speechless, indeed, he hadn’t done anything wrong, why should he feel guilty?

"But I am curious, why did you let them go?" inquired Chu Ge.

Huo Tianqian paused, then shook his head, "I don’t really know why, it just feels like my hatred for Tang Sect isn’t as intense anymore. Although Tang You is also from Tang Sect, he already took a punch from me, that punch is enough to prevent him from practicing martial arts for the next half year. Whether he can practice martial arts in the future is not up to me, it depends on his fate."

Chu Ge nodded, not saying anything more.

"Alright, let’s see how Shen Congwen is doing."

Chu Ge suggested.

Shen Congwen had also managed to easily drive away the squad sent by Tang You.

When Chu Ge and Huo Tianqian arrived, Shen Congwen was still in shock.

"Mr. Shen, what happened?" Chu Ge asked, seeing his expression slightly puzzled.

Shen Congwen came back to his senses, he shook his head, emotionally saying: "I’m just reminiscing, reminiscing that I actually managed to drive away ancient martial artists."

Just now, when those people came and saw him alone, they didn’t take him seriously. Just as they were about to bully him, this dragon chose a critical moment and with a tail sweep, directly swept all of them away.

It was only a momentary event. A bold idea emerged in Shen Congwen’s mind, wishing the giant dragon would always follow him.

That would protect him and even carry out his commands.

But he knew that was unrealistic.

Shen Congwen was not a greedy person; he knew receiving the All Spirits Return to One Array from Chu Ge was already his greatest fortune, he dared not ask for too much.

"Mr. Chu, I truly cannot thank you enough today, please accept my kneeling!" Shen Congwen said, about to kneel in deep gratitude.

Shen Congwen could gain the protection of the giant dragon, it was all because of Chu Ge, allowing him to feel the power of being an ancient martial artist, all thanks to Chu Ge.

So, this kneel was worthwhile.

Chu Ge was startled by his action, quickly stepping forward to help Shen Congwen up, "Mr. Shen, you’re overpraising, I did this also for my own reasons."

He wasn’t wrong, Chu Ge had set up the All Spirits Return to One Array for Shen Congwen, also to protect this cultivation base.

Shen Congwen smiled, "No matter what, Mr. Chu’s great kindness, I have already etched in my heart."

"Cough, cough! You remember his kindness, but what about mine?"

A robust voice floated down from the sky, followed by Jian Chunqiu descending from above.

After he stabilized himself, he walked over to Shen Congwen, teasing, "I’ve helped you quite a bit before, I haven’t heard half a thanks from you, just now I even helped drive away some troublemakers, aren’t you going to thank me?"

Shen Congwen didn’t expect Jian Chunqiu to suddenly appear; luckily, he had seen Jian Chunqiu’s martial arts before and did not exhibit much surprise.

He just smiled awkwardly, "Elder Jian, don’t tease me, I’ve thanked you over and over before, you even found me tedious."

Jian Chunqiu glared at him irritably; he was just a bit upset seeing him kneeling to Chu Ge.

Chu Ge stepped forward, interrupting, "Uncle Jian, why are you here?"

Jian Chunqiu reverted to his usual demeanor, "I’m not here for you. I was going to Dang City to find Zhao Wuji, that guy suddenly wants to resign for some reason, I want to see what’s going on. Just so happened to pass by here, saw some mists rising, felt weird so I came down to check."

Chu Ge nodded, recalling what Jian Chunqiu just mentioned, and asked further, "You drove away the people coming from the north?"

"Yeah, drove them away."

"Who are they? Who sent them?" Chu Ge continued to ask.

Jian Chunqiu looked at him speechlessly, shrugged, "How would I know that? I didn’t ask."

"..."

Never mind, he hadn’t really expected him to ask anything.

Chu Ge sighed regretfully, "You just said you’re heading to Dang City?"

Jian Chunqiu nodded.

"Let’s go together."

Chu Ge suggested, as he still owed someone a promise.

At a previous auction, he had promised Mu Qing, once he recovered his martial arts, he would help her expel the Insect Poisonous Insect from her body and heal her legs.

Now was the time to fulfill that promise.

Thus, the group took a car borrowed from Shen Congwen and headed back to Dang City.
