Chapter 599: Chapter 0601: You Are Chu Ge

Three years ago, Shao Gang also rose to prominence through his Medical Skill by connecting with a family that was considered a wealthy household. The family’s reputation was already poor, and with Shao Gang flaunting the family’s name to bully commoners, many people were dissatisfied and wanted to join forces to punish him.

Shao Gang was complacent, convinced that his martial arts were unrivaled and his poisoning skills unbeatable, so he grew increasingly wicked.

Until one day, when he was harassing a married woman, a strange old man taught him a lesson.

The strange old man had apparently heard of Shao Gang’s vile deeds, so after capturing him, he bound him and presented him to the public. Shao Gang had bullied too many innocent girls, and everyone abhorred him immensely; they proposed to castrate him before killing him.

The strange old man complied with their wish, but while being castrated, Shao Gang fainted from sheer terror and then was on the brink of death due to excessive bleeding.

After all, these were ordinary people unused to the sight of blood splattering on the spot, so they were terrified at the scene.

Nobody dared to continue calling for his death, and everyone had already fled.

After the strange old man finished everything, he turned around only to realize that everyone behind him had already left. He wiped the blood from his hands and sighed with some resignation.

He kicked the unconscious Shao Gang and said, "Now that you cannot be considered human anymore, surviving would mean you’re indeed fortunate. If you cannot survive, you only have your many evils to blame."

After finishing his words, the strange old man turned and left.

No one expected that Shao Gang would ultimately survive.

Today, as if forgetting the pain of his scars, he started committing evils again, targeting such a prominent family as the Nangong Family.

That incident had always been a source of agony for Shao Gang. Now, he could only yearn for the beauties he could not have, which was undoubtedly a torment for him. During those times, he especially hated that strange old man.

But that was an incident from three years ago, and not many people knew about it. How did this young man come to know of it?

Shao Gang eyed Chu Ge warily, "How do you know these things?"

Chu Ge shrugged indifferently, "The person who operated on you back then was my master."

Indeed, that strange old man was Gui Lingzi, Chu Ge’s master. He happened to encounter Shao Gang when coming down from the mountains and took care of him incidentally.

Gui Lingzi had even fasted and chanted for several days after returning to the mountains because he felt that dealing with Shao Gang had delayed his Cultivation. He complained for days, which was how Chu Ge came to learn of it.

Upon hearing this, Shao Gang’s gaze turned fierce, realizing that the young man before him was the disciple of that person. "Hmph, boy, you truly have no fear of death. If I can’t find your master, you shall take his place!" Correct content is on f(r)eew(e)bnovel.(c)o(m)

Suddenly, Shao Gang concentrated his qi in his palm, and a black mass of energy congealed into a sphere in the center of his hand.

Chu Ge narrowed his eyes slightly. He had only intended to provoke Shao Gang and hadn’t expected him to actually make a move against him.

"Lin Dong, take all the children under the bridge, and no matter what happens outside, do not come out."

Upon seeing this, Lin Dong quickly nodded his agreement, supporting Mrs. Wu as they turned and descended to the riverbed. He then spoke a few words to Liu Yue and Qin Yang, who promptly led the children to safety under the bridge.

Once Chu Ge saw that all the children had entered the bridge tunnel, he formed a Barrier to protect them, and only then did he turn back to confront Shao Gang with ease.

Shao Gang’s hands gathered a growing lump of black qi, Chu Ge narrowed his eyes slightly, a sharp light shooting towards Shao Gang, "Shao Gang, to make a move with your Lifebound Poison, don’t you think you’re taking me a bit too seriously?"

Shao Gang was slightly taken aback, he did not expect that Chu Ge could tell the poison was his signature move, "You can actually tell what poison I’m using?"

Chu Ge chuckled lightly, "Life-cutting Poison, anyone who gets a touch of it will bleed from all orifices and die within seven seconds."

Shao Gang snorted coldly, "Since you know, why don’t I see a trace of fear on your face?"

Chu Ge shook his head helplessly, ever since he cultivated that mental method, his body had become immune to all poisons; no matter what the toxin, it would take only three seconds for it to dissolve completely.

"Why should I be afraid?" Chu Ge slowly raised his hand, white qi around him continuously gathering in his palm.

He was absorbing the surrounding Spiritual Energy!

Shao Gang spotted at a glance what Chu Ge was doing, but he didn’t understand why he was doing this, since the surrounding Spiritual Energy had no effect on his poison whatsoever.

Shao Gang scoffed inwardly, "Since he is not afraid of death, I might as well oblige him."

It also served as revenge!

The Life-cutting Poison took longer to concentrate for optimal use, but Shao Gang was overly confident in his poison and didn’t wait for it to reach its peak before he pushed it out with a palm strike.

Where the black qi passed, the touched green grass turned to ashes, without exception.

The black qi headed straight for Chu Ge, who stood as firm as Mount Tai, not showing the slightest intent to dodge.

Just as the black qi was about to reach Chu Ge, suddenly his figure flashed, the white Spiritual Energy in his hand striking out towards the black qi.

White and black mixed together, creating a stark contrast.

However, to Shao Gang’s surprise, the white qi completely merged with his poison, and gradually, like a devouring force, the white qi started to dissolve the black qi away.

Shao Gang watched this scene in shock, shaking his head in disbelief, muttering, "No! This can’t be! How can this be? Are you playing tricks on me? How could you possibly dissolve my poison? That’s absolutely impossible! I am a master of using poison in the world of martial arts! How could you have dissolved my poison so easily!"

Chu Ge retracted his power, one hand behind his back, his lips forming a faint smile, "There is nothing impossible, your favorite poison might be the deadliest in the world, but it is not the most fierce, nor is it incurable. At the very least, I have just dissolved your poison with my own method."

Still in disbelief, Shao Gang couldn’t accept it since his use of poison had never failed, and yet Chu Ge had just dissolved it seemingly without effort.

This was indeed hard for him to accept.

Shao Gang looked at Chu Ge alertly, "Who exactly are you?"

In a light tone, Chu Ge said, "I am Chu Ge, from Shanghai, here... to help treat Old Master Nangong."

While Chu Ge said this, he deliberately paused in the middle, watching Shao Gang’s face change suddenly, surmising something in his heart.

Shao Gang’s pupils constricted abruptly, watching Chu Ge intently, "You are Chu Ge!"
