I Have Medicine Chapter 252 - “Seriously Injured”

Chapter 252 - “Seriously Injured”

Another person stepped out from Chongyun Sect.

This person held a long spear. The spear tip was as fast as lightning, its momentum rushed across, and its movements were wide-sweeping. It possessed a bold and unconstrained beauty like splashed ink.

From his mouth, he shouted: “You seem to have some ability, but do you dare to compare spear skills with this one?!”

Gongyi Tianheng was free and at ease as he turned around. With a swing of his arm, he also took out a long spear. He lifted his hand and thrusted straight out to clash with that person’s spear for a short while. They charged against one another in a back and forth manner.

This was probably a warm-up. After a period of fighting to one’s heart’s content, Tianheng’s movements became nimbler and smoother. It seemed that his strength was gradually making progress. In the beginning, he was staying level with his opponent, but he eventually gained the upper-hand. After that, he raised his spear and forced the other back. A Blood Palm swatted out, and nearly slapped this person off the platform.

It was just that, for some reason, this time’s Blood Palm didn’t show results with one strike.

That Chongyun Sect disciple was overjoyed. His figure moved like a dragon as he turned his hands to strike back. Unfortunately, no matter how fast his reaction speed, he wasn’t able to block Tianheng’s next palm.

Hence, although this match wasn’t settled with a single palm, two palms were enough to end it.

This Chongyun Sect disciple was defeated as well.

Chongyun Sect’s mood became as grave as that of Qingyun Sect. Also, because Tianheng had persevered for so long, those from Qingyun Sect weren’t all happy. They harbored worries. While they hoped that he could hold on for a while longer, they also hoped that those disciples in secluded cultivation would come out as soon as possible to take Tianheng’s place.

Right now, although it appeared that Tianheng was constantly winning his battles, they also discovered that Tianheng’s complexion was slowly worsening. Wasn’t the reason why two Blood Palms were used previously because his true qi had dropped and the consumption was quite large? Amid this scene, there was unexpectedly a moving and tragic feeling.

Thus, the favorable impressions that many Qingyun Sect disciples had for Tianheng increased greatly. They only felt that this person had spared no effort for the Sect. He was considered an exemplary model of the Inner Sect. If they could bring out a tenth of his strength, then they would’ve also fought alongside him to uphold the Sect’s honor.

Gu Zuo: “…”

This was just a few equivalent realms… They were certainly geniuses, but they weren’t really genius enough to raise eyebrows. And those who weren’t genius enough to raise eyebrows were just coming to deliver heads to his big brother.

However, his big brother’s disguise was too ruthless. Just how many pits did he want to dig?

It had to be said that all of the Chongyun Sect disciples who’d been slapped down by the Blood Palm wouldn’t be able to go out and make any lively provocations for quite a few days at the very least. In the end, it might be difficult to remove the poison due to that strange reddish-black power of the Tiandu Body! If there wasn’t enough time, perhaps they’d have to return to Chongyun Sect lying down…

Gu Zuo silently praised his big brother in his heart.

&#k2014; His big brother was awesome, hitting multiple birds with one stone!

Sure enough, Chongyun Sect’s side was still unwilling. Qingyun Sect had guessed that the Blood Palm’s might was already insufficient, so since Chongyun Sect had a living body as proof, they were even more convinced of this point.

That’s right. The symptoms of the person who’d been slapped down indicated that the poison within the other party’s body was weaker than that of those people from before. Moreover, the speed of expelling the poison was a little faster.

Thus, the Chongyun Sect disciples didn’t take anything else into consideration. An alternating battle was just that. In any case, their faces were on the verge of being torn to pieces. What rules were there to speak of? A thief would pa.s.s for a king if he had stolen the crown. So long as Tianheng was crippled, even if they lost a bit of face now, it wouldn’t have anything to do with them!

After finalizing this plan, Chongyun Sect became even braver. The ones who were dispatched were all disciples with enormous potential and whose destructive powers were especially grand.

Prior to every one of Tianheng’s matches, he would take a medicinal pill. The might of the Blood Palm was indeed weakening. The first and second went up… The third and fourth went up… Nevertheless, they weren’t able to cripple him.

Eventually, after Tianheng consecutively injured eight of Chongyun Sect’s people, he ended the match with the ninth Chongyun Sect disciple where neither side won — Tianheng turned around and jumped off the platform.

Yet, he still hadn’t been crippled. On the contrary, the wounds of the one who’d been slapped out by him were rather serious.

The Chongyun Sect disciples couldn’t help gnas.h.i.+ng their teeth:

“What a crafty guy!”

“It seems he has seen through our plan…”

“For this kind of person, we have to look for another opportunity. We can’t let him get away with this!”

“It looks like it’s also not possible for mid-level disciples like us. We’ll have to ask the high-level seniors to come over.”

Chongyun Sect was out of luck. Originally, they had come over while bearing a very big goal. The disciples who were brought along were greater in numbers and strength compared to the disciples who suppressed Qingyun Sect last time.

One shouldn’t focus on how they talked about low-level disciples and mid-level disciples. In fact, the word “genius” should’ve also been appended to the low and mid-level t.i.tles. And how could anyone who was labelled a genius be weak?

The fighting within Chongyun Sect was more intense than that of Qingyun Sect. The t.i.tles of the low and mid-level had been won by stepping upon the faces of numerous Inner Sect disciples. Compared to Qingyun Sect, this peaceful world, it was much more difficult over there. As a result, in an evaluation between disciples of the two Sects who were at equal or near-equal realms, it was to be expected that Chongyun Sect was superior.

When they came over this time, it wasn’t like before where the majority were low-level disciples with only a few mid-level disciples. Now, not only had the number of low-level disciples doubled, the number of mid-level disciples was higher than the previous number of low-level disciples. Quite a few high-level disciples were even brought along. This was to ensure that Chongyun Sect thoroughly suppressed Qingyun Sect without giving them the smallest leeway to turn things around — Moreover, not only the Xiantians, even the Immortal Realm disciples were of the same quality!

But they didn’t antic.i.p.ate this. At first, the low-level disciples could still show off their strengths. Even if Qingyun Sect could find stronger people from time to time, this basically wasn’t outside Chongyun Sect’s expectations. Unfortunately, when their provocations had nearly reached a crescendo, when they felt that Qingyun Sect had been suppressed to its breaking point, such a mishap had suddenly occurred!

In Chongyun Sect’s opinion, it wouldn’t have been easy for Qingyun Sect to produce a few personages similar to their mid-level disciples. Once public appearances were made, after casually sending a few mid-level disciples to battle, Chongyun Sect could directly send its high-level disciples to crush the opposition and thoroughly destroy Qingyun Sect’s face. But now, how could this Gongyi Tianheng be comparable to a mid-level disciple? He was basically the same as a high-level disciple! How could there be such a genius character in a weak, no good sect like Qingyun Sect?!

After losing these rounds, there were heavy wounds on his body. If they sent another person to drag the other party out to fight again, that would’ve been too shameless. Chongyun Sect wasn’t in a good position to incite derision, so it could only send someone to inform those couple of high-level disciples to figure out how to deal with Tianheng, this dangerous personage.

However, although nine mid-level disciples were injured, it was fortunate that the number of mid-level disciples brought here was far greater than this. Chongyun Sect held in its anger. While they couldn’t get rid of Tianheng, couldn’t they take out their anger on Qingyun Sect? Immediately following this, a mid-level disciple who was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with potential jumped onto the Martial Prowess Platform. The longsword in his hand stabbed into the ground, causing numerous cracks to spread out in all directions under his feet.

At the same time, his breath rushed out from his throat as he issued his strong grievances: “Everyone of Qingyun Sect, who will come to fight with this one? This one’s longsword will quietly wait for you all!”

Qingyun Sect’s disciples: “…”

Although they understood that the next person to go up might be unlucky, they suddenly felt that… Even if it was their own turn to be this unlucky person, they felt it would be a little cool.

Gu Zuo didn’t care about anything else. He immediately rushed to Tianheng’s side. He blurted out: “Big brother!”

Originally, he had been diligently addressing Tianheng as “young master” in front of everyone from Qingyun Sect the entire time. However, because he’d been distracted while watching the fight, he hadn’t been paying complete attention to this. Now, he simply didn’t bother about this anymore. In any case, with his current “position” among the pharmacists, it shouldn’t obstruct him nor give rise to any gossip.

Tianheng’s complexion was deathly pale. He weakly lifted a hand as if he wanted to ruffle Gu Zuo’s hair or to pat his shoulder. But because Tianheng didn’t have any strength, that hand only lifted halfway before falling back down.

Gu Zuo promptly reached out to grasp Tianheng’s hand. His voice was urgent: “Big brother! Are you okay? Is there anything wrong?”

In his heart, he silently made a helpless expression — His big brother really could act. While it looked like he was very weak, if someone really went to examine the interior of Tianheng’s body, they’d discover that he was as strong as a wild beast and that his qi and blood was exuberant.

It was just that, even though his mind knew what was going on, seeing his dear big brother with such a “heavily wounded” appearance still made him felt upset. Unconsciously, this showed up on his face a little bit.

Tianheng lightly shook his head. His voice was very low: “It’s nothing. Ah Zuo, don’t worry.”

This scene made Xi Yangyun and the others who were approaching suddenly halt their footsteps.

They felt that it was inappropriate to disturb them for the time being.

Once the adoptive brothers finished speaking, Xi Yangyun asked with deep concern: “How are you, Junior Sect Brother Gongyi? If you need anything, just say the word. This Xi will certainly prepare it for you.”

The other organization leaders all conveyed their own goodwill one after another — They were obliged to make friends with this kind of person.

However, whether it was goodwill or deep concern, no one suggested to ask a pharmacist to come over and diagnose Tianheng. After all, unless one’s strength was enfeebled or there was no other choice, everyone would have some secrets after their strengths made huge advancements. Unless it was an absolutely trusted pharmacist, other people wouldn’t be allowed to easily examine one’s own body.

The present Gu Zuo’s strength was quite high. Tianheng and him also trusted in each other. Naturally, there was no need to suggest other pharmacists… If it was truly required, they would wait for when Gu Zuo had no other recourse before selling a favor.

Xi Yangyun especially knew that Gu Zuo and Xu Lingxiu were friends. Even if they needed a favor, it wouldn’t have been these people’s turn to offer it.

Tianheng had two medicinal pills stuffed into his mouth by Gu Zuo. Without much extra effort, he slowly recovered. His voice when speaking was also somewhat clear. After he expressed his thanks to everyone in Qingyun Sect, he spoke with some worry: “I’m afraid that Chongyun Sect will want to vent its anger. The juniors who’ll be going up later…”

Xi Yangyun paused.

He was also a little anxious. It would be fortunate if the people who came to fight later on were only struck and crippled. In a momentary fit of rage, would the Chongyun Sect disciples kill their opponents?

Otherwise, it would be better that he sent martial artists whose realms were higher than their opponents to avoid any unreasonable losses of life.

But at the next moment, Xi Yangyun’s expression turned into one of joy.

He instantly turned his head, and saw the shadow of a sword-like person. In the blink of an eye, this person dropped onto the Martial Prowess Platform!

That was —

A secluded disciple had come out!
