Peerless Medical Emperor

Chapter 21: Chapter 21: Old Master of the Nie Family

"Alright, my good grandson, Grandpa understands. Now, Grandpa will help you get your revenge!"

Nie Zhenhai knew full well that Chen Qingdi was responsible for his grandson’s current state!

Nie Tianlong was his direct grandson, the descendant he doted on most!

He had been grooming him as his successor all this time.

Yet, Chen Qingdi had reduced him to this state. How could he not be furious?

He wished for nothing more than to make Chen Qingdi disappear from Jinghai forever, right this very moment!

"Young man, I’ll give you one chance. Cripple your own cultivation, kneel on the ground, and acknowledge my grandson as your master."

"Serve him as your master from now on, and I can spare your life."

"Otherwise, with a single word from me, there will be no place left for you in all of Jinghai!"

"Go ahead, ask around. See how many high-ranking officials in Jinghai City Hall were once my students."

"My students are everywhere. Even the city’s top leader has to show me a measure of respect. You harmed my grandson, so you have completely crossed my line. Today, you must die."

Nie Zhenhai threatened Chen Qingdi, his voice dripping with arrogance.

If there was one thing Chen Qingdi hated, it was being threatened. By doing this, Nie Zhenhai had undoubtedly crossed him.

"Who does your Nie Family think they are? Even the top leader of Sea City wouldn’t dare claim he could leave me without a foothold in his city."

"Or is your Nie Family’s power even greater than that of Sea City’s top leader?"

Chen Qingdi let out a cold laugh and immediately shot back at Nie Zhenhai.

Never having been contradicted before, Nie Zhenhai was stunned speechless.

He was so used to his lofty, superior attitude.

And to holding the power of life and death over others.

Never before had anyone dared to speak to him this way.

Chen Qingdi was the first.

"Young man, you’ve successfully piqued my interest. However, surely you understand the principle that the tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind."

"Young man, I advise you not to be so arrogant. Be careful you don’t dig yourself a hole you can’t climb out of."

Arrogance was written all over Nie Zhenhai’s face as he preached at Chen Qingdi.

"Old fart, why do you talk so much? If you want to fight, I’ll indulge you. If not, then stop running your mouth and get the hell out of my sight!"

Chen Qingdi gave him no face at all. He’d seen plenty of people like this, who used their age to act high and mighty.

Give them an inch, and they’ll take a mile.

Chen Qingdi had no intention of giving him even the slightest bit of respect.

"Insolence! Who do you think you are, talking to the Old Ancestor like that?"

"You must be courting death!"

Suddenly, a young man could no longer sit still. A powerful aura erupted from his body as he charged toward Chen Qingdi.

This young man was none other than Nie Tianlong’s cousin, Nie Xiong!

The Martial Dao genius of the Nie Family’s younger generation, and a martial arts fanatic.

Seeing someone disrespecting their Old Ancestor, how could someone with Nie Xiong’s temper stand for it?

He would act first and ask questions later, giving his opponent absolutely no quarter!

Seeing Nie Xiong charge toward him, Chen Qingdi simply sent a slap his way.

It was just a casual slap from Chen Qingdi, but Nie Xiong couldn’t even withstand it for a moment. He was sent flying back several dozen meters.

He was only stopped when two elderly men in black appeared and caught him.

"Nie Xiong, what have we taught you?"

"Nie Xiong, have we not taught you to never act rashly before you know your enemy’s true strength?"

"Or have you decided that our words are just a load of hot air?!"

"Now get back there and face the wall to reflect on what you’ve done, you utter disgrace."

The two elderly men in black rebuked Nie Xiong.

When Nie Xiong saw the two elderly men in black, he respectfully addressed them, "Masters."

These two elderly men in black were, in fact, Nie Xiong’s masters.

The Black Daoist and the Profound Daoist, ranked twenty-third in the Martial Arts Realm.

It was said that the two of them came from the same school, and the Cultivation Techniques they used were virtually identical.

"Interesting. I was wondering why the Nie Family was so arrogant. So it’s because you have Martial Artists holding down the fort."

"But surely you don’t think your presence is enough to stop me from moving against the Nie Family, do you?"

Chen Qingdi gave a cold laugh, and the aura around him suddenly exploded outward.

Upon feeling that aura, everyone present immediately fell back several meters, not daring to meet it head-on.

Because the aura Chen Qingdi had unleashed was simply too powerful.

It struck fear into their hearts.

"Big Brother, this kid’s strength... I’m afraid it’s anything but ordinary," the Profound Daoist suddenly warned the Black Daoist.

"Yes, I sense it too," the Black Daoist replied, hesitating for a moment. "This kid has the aura of that old fellow on him!"

"What?"

"Big Brother, you can’t be joking, can you? Isn’t that old fellow on that battlefield?"

"How could one of his people possibly appear in the secular world?"

The Profound Daoist said, his face a mask of astonishment as he stared at Chen Qingdi in disbelief.

"You’ve never crossed paths with that old fellow, so you’re not familiar with his aura. But I fought him once, when I was young. The result was a crushing defeat at his hands."

As the Black Daoist said this, his gaze toward Chen Qingdi filled with utter astonishment.

"Hey, are you two going to fight or not? If not, then this young master is going to beat up your young master first."

Chen Qingdi said nonchalantly, then flicked a dagger straight at Nie Tianlong.

Just as the dagger was about to pierce Nie Tianlong, the Black Daoist suddenly waved a hand, knocking it away.

"Kid, I advise you not to be so insolent."

"Don’t forget the rules of the Martial Arts Realm: Martial Artists are forbidden from attacking ordinary people. Do you intend to break that rule?"

the Black Daoist said to Chen Qingdi with grave seriousness.

In response, Chen Qingdi gathered a ball of True Energy in his hand and blasted it at the Black Daoist.

The Black Daoist, not expecting Chen Qingdi to attack so suddenly, had no defense prepared. By the time he reacted, he could only throw up a hand to block, but he was still knocked back a small step.

"Rules?"

"Those bullshit rules only exist to benefit the ones who make them. In my presence, they aren’t worth a damn."

Chen Qingdi attacked without a second thought.

"We didn’t want to harm you, considering your connection to that old fellow. But since you insist on being difficult, know that we are not to be trifled with!"

"Second Brother, let’s move! We’ll subdue him first!"

Without another word, the Black Daoist threw a palm strike.

Meanwhile, the Profound Daoist followed up, suddenly appearing behind Chen Qingdi.

It was a pincer attack; an ordinary person would have no hope of dodging such a fatal blow.

But Chen Qingdi was no ordinary person.

"GET LOST!"

With a great roar, an incredibly powerful killing energy erupted from Chen Qingdi, surging toward the Profound Daoist and the Black Daoist.

Before they could even react, the sheer force of this killing energy blasted them backward.

"True Dragon Killing Energy?"

"You actually possess True Dragon Blood!"
