Chapter 697: Because I Want to Kill You
After Feng Jiang left, Ji Chao continued to sit in meditation at the same place, regulating his breath to heal his injuries."Who’s there?"
The martial artist’s senses were sharp; Ji Chao suddenly heard faint footsteps behind him. His heart chilled, and he immediately stood up and turned to look.
In the distance, under the veil of night, a white figure slowly emerged. As the white color gradually advanced, entering Ji Chao’s field of view, it was a young man around twenty years old, wearing a white casual shirt.
A faint smile played upon the young man’s face, yet within that smile lurked a hint of murderous intent.
Ji Chao furrowed his brows, feeling as though he had seen this young man somewhere before.
"Is it you?"
Ji Chao suddenly remembered. Not long ago when he and Valley Chief Feng had passed by a square, this young man had been treating some patients from the Secular World alongside many doctors.
But how did he end up here? Was it by mistake, or did he intentionally follow them?
Ji Chao watched as the young man steadily approached, his heart sinking continuously.
The way the other walked as silently as snow falling on the ground indicated he was surely a martial artist, and the absence of any detectable martial artist aura from him meant that his strength was at least a level higher than Ji Chao’s.
Furthermore, the murderous intent in the other’s eyes was undisguised, which suggested that he was an enemy rather than a friend.
Even at full strength, Ji Chao might not be a match for him, and now, injured as he was, he had no chance of victory and was utterly at the other’s mercy.
"What is your honorable name, friend? We’ve never met before, so why are you following us here?"
Although Ji Chao tried to appear calm, his voice couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
By this time, Feng Jiang had already gone far. Ji Chao knew that even if he yelled at the top of his lungs, Feng Jiang could not possibly hear him. If the other party made a move, he would be facing certain death.
"My name is Fang Bai."
The young man in the white casual shirt approached Ji Chao and said indifferently, "Although we have never met, I’ve long admired the reputation of ’Ghost Doctor Valley’!"
Fang Bai had followed Feng Jiang and Ji Chao all this way. Earlier, when Ji Chao had made a move against Lin Ruoxue and Dongfang Ruhua, Fang Bai knew that Dongfang Ruhua had a jade pendant he had given her to protect herself, so he didn’t rush to reveal himself.ripod cauldron! I’ve told you all I know. You can let me go now, right?"
Ji Chao looked expectantly at Fang Bai, his greatest fear being that Fang Bai would break his promise and turn on him suddenly.
"I can let you go, but I need to collect some ’interest’!"
As he spoke, Fang Bai stepped forward and unleashed two palms, one heading for Ji Chao’s Qi Sea and the other for the top of his head.
Ji Chao was horrified, knowing how formidable a Martial Artist like Fang Bai could be. If a palm struck him, how could he possibly survive?
Ji Chao wanted to dodge, but how could he match Fang Bai’s speed? Two palms struck one after the other, first one hitting his Qi Sea, followed by another on the top of his head.
Ji Chao felt a thunderous shake within his Qi Sea as the condensed Essence Energy completely shattered and vanished. Then his head exploded with noise, as if cracked open, his vision went dark, and he became dazed and witless.
With those two palms, Fang Bai had first crippled Ji Chao’s Cultivation Level and then scrambled his brain’s neural system. Although it was not enough to take his life, his mental state would likely be abnormal from now on.
Fang Bai didn’t kill Ji Chao, but now Ji Chao was no different from a dead man.
Fang Bai glanced towards the Doctor Pavilion, then vanished into the night, leaving Ji Chao grinning stupidly, aimlessly wandering the mountain road.
At that moment, not far from the Doctor Pavilion headquarters, on a mountain trail, more than a dozen female Disciples from the Doctor Pavilion stood shoulder to shoulder with swords in hand, angrily confronting Feng Jiang.
Feng Jiang had followed Lin Ruoxue and Dongfang Ruhua, encountering the group of female Disciples from the Doctor Pavilion who had come to support after seeing the Signal Flare.
In Feng Jiang’s eyes, many of these Female Martial Artists remained virgins, prime Furnace Cauldrons. If he could enjoy them, he might very well advance to the Heaven Level realm in one stroke, and he couldn’t help but be overjoyed at the prospect.
However, Dongfang Ruhua stood protectively in front of the Doctor Pavilion’s women, confronting Feng Jiang, who harbored a wary respect for her and didn’t dare to move forward to capture anyone right away.
