Chapter 92: Grasping the Steel Blade, Forging Iron into

Mud! (3)

Mr. Xia seemed lost in thought, his eyes gleaming with a hint of severity.

Anyone who dared to drug his daughter with incense was in for trouble. Mr. Xia couldn’t be considered lenient.

This time, someone was likely to face the consequences.

However, it had nothing to do with Lu Changsheng. He was just a doctor, providing medical care, and he didn’t want to get involved in anything else.

“1 understand. I’ll handle the incense matter. Thank you, Doctor Lu.”

So, Lu Changsheng wrote down the prescription, and the Xia family’s personnel were responsible for getting the necessary herbs.

Afterward, Lu Changsheng was invited to rest in a guest room.

He needed about ten days to treat Miss Xia and had to stay at the Xia residence during this time to prevent any unforeseen developments in her condition.

Time passed swiftly, and three days went by.

Miss Xia had already finished her first prescription and now needed a new one.

After three days of treatment, her condition had significantly improved.

It was reported that she no longer had nightmares at night, and her spirits had improved considerably.

However, for a complete recovery, continuous care was necessary.

While staying at the Xia residence, Lu Changsheng also heard some rumors.

It seemed that Mr. Xia had severely punished some servants in the Xia residence and ordered the organ-refining martial practitioners to take action, creating quite a commotion.

This must be related to Miss Xia’s privacy.

There were probably hidden factors in Miss Xia’s illness.

But when it came to Miss Xia’s privacy, no one dared to gossip.

Lu Changsheng had no interest in the gossip surrounding Miss Xia.

He had spent three days at the Xia residence and, in his free time, decided to take a walk.

Yancheng was known for its well salt production and was a bustling trading city with many merchants coming and going.

Lu Changsheng strolled through the busy streets when suddenly, he heard the rapid sound of horse hooves ahead.

“Get out of the way, quickly!”

Two fast horses were galloping through the crowded streets.

Some people were too slow to react and were knocked over. A child of about four or five, seemingly lost, stood in the middle of the street. The fast horses charged toward the child, and they didn’t seem to have any intention of stopping.

Lu Changsheng furrowed his brow slightly.

Suddenly, a burly man darted out from the side of the street, swiftly scooping up the child and then pressing a palm onto the fast horse. action

“Bang.”

The fast horse unexpectedly collapsed in response, and the person on its back quickly leaped up and dismounted.

“Who damaged my horse?” the person on the horse immediately scolded, glaring at the burly man.

The burly man put down the child and coldly said, “It doesn’t matter who you are. Galloping on the street like that deserves punishment!”

“You…”

At this moment, the person on the other horse stopped his angry companion and carefully examined the burly man, then clasped his hands and said, “So, you are the renowned hero Lei Xiong of Ba Mountain.”

“We’re in a hurry to travel, and we unintentionally collided with Hero Lei. We hope Hero Lei can forgive us.”

Lei Xiong sneered, “Hehe, whether you bumped into me or not, you were scaring the child.”

“Judging from your appearance, you should be members of the Blackwater Gang of Yancheng.”

“In Yancheng, many people fear your Blackwater Gang, but I’m not afraid.”

“By the way, tell your boss that trying to monopolize the Four-Eyed Toad’s treasure with just the Blackwater Gang is nothing but a dream!”

The faces of the two Blackwater Gang members instantly turned pale.

“Let’s go.”

They didn’t dare to linger and immediately left together on a single horse.

“Thank you, Hero. I kowtow to you,” the child’s mother, who had arrived, said as she accepted her child and knelt to kowtow to Lei Xiong.

Lei Xiong quickly helped the mother and child to their feet and shook his head, saying, “In the future, keep a close watch on your child. Now, go quickly. Living in Yancheng, if those two Blackwater Gang members set their sights on you, it could be troublesome.”

Lei Xiong waved his hand, allowing the mother and child to leave.

He wasn’t afraid of the Blackwater Gang, but the mother and child living in Yancheng couldn’t afford to offend them.

Afterward, Lei Xiong left as well.

Witnessing all of this, Lu Changsheng’s eyes revealed a glint of insight.

“Four-Eyed Toad’s treasure?”

“The Qian Tian Transformation Treasure Technique requires seven rare and precious treasures, one of which is the Four-Eyed Toad’s treasure.”

“It’s quite a coincidence that the Four-Eyed Toad’s treasure has appeared in Yancheng.”

Lu Changsheng gazed at the disappearing figure of Lei Xiong, lost in thought.

Lei Xiong made several turns and eventually returned to the temporary courtyard he had rented.

Evidently, he wasn’t as rough as he appeared on the surface; he was actually very cautious. He had traveled thousands of miles from Ba Mountain to Yancheng for the Four-Eyed Toad’s treasure.

He had received information that the Four-Eyed Toad’s treasure had appeared in Yancheng.

If consumed, the Four-Eyed Toad’s treasure made one immune to all poisons. Moreover, for organ-refining martial practitioners, the Four-Eyed Toad’s treasure was even more valuable because it could enhance their physical bodies.

With the Four-Eyed Toad’s treasure, Lei Xiong would even dare to attempt to break through to the Divine Power Realm.

Many martial practitioners came to Yancheng to compete for the Four-Eyed Toad’s treasure, and Lei Xiong had encountered quite a few well-known experts in the martial world in recent days, each of whom was at least not weaker than him.

If he wanted to obtain the Four-Eyed Toad’s treasure, careful planning was necessary.

Today, he had merely feigned an encounter with the Blackwater Gang. He was not sure if the Blackwater Gang had actually obtained the Four-Eyed Toad’s treasure.

However, the Blackwater Gang was a local power in Yancheng, and if the Four-Eyed Toad’s treasure had indeed appeared in Yancheng, they were highly likely to have obtained it.

“How much do you know about the Four-Eyed Toad’s treasure?”

Suddenly, Lei Xiong heard an unfamiliar voice in his ear.

Lei Xiong’s face changed dramatically. “Who are you?”

At the same time, he drew his sword.

“Swish.”

Lei Xiong, known as the “Ba Mountain One Blade,” was certainly not an empty name.

Even though he was currently turning his back, he drew his sword, sweeping it behind him with one fluid motion.

His movement was extremely smooth, and his speed was swift.

Moreover, his one-blade attack was powerful and heavy. Even a peak organ-refining martial practitioner would have difficulty blocking this attack head-on.

When he turned around, he saw a young man who was calmly looking at him.

And Lei Xiong’s blade was now just three inches away from the man’s neck.

It seemed like the next moment, he would decapitate the man with a single stroke!

“Whoosh.”

The young man extended his hand like lightning and, with his bare flesh, reached out to grab the sharp blade. He effortlessly caught the large blade as if it were made of paper.

Furthermore, it seemed like he exerted almost no effort as he caught the blade, and his hand remained unaffected, no matter how hard Lei Xiong struggled to pull the sword back.

“Bang.”

The great sword was crushed into a lump of scrap metal as the young man squeezed it with his hand.

“The sword is not bad, but the swordsmanship is too weak,” the newcomer, who was naturally Lu Changsheng, remarked.

Lei Xiong was undeniably powerful and unyielding with his one-blade attack.

But when it came to swordsmanship, he was still inferior to Zhao Qilei.

“Hand-grabbing steel sword, gripping iron like mud! Divine… Divine Power Realm!”

Lei Xiong’s heart trembled, and his face instantly turned deathly pale.

To catch his sword with just one hand, and even nonchalantly crush his well-forged steel sword, only a martial practitioner of the Divine Power Realm could accomplish such a feat.

Clearly, the young man who appeared so youthful was a high and mighty martial practitioner in the Divine Power Realm!
