The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine - Chapter 1006

Chapter 1006: Chapter 1006: Choice Chapter 1006: Chapter 1006: Choice Huang Xiaolong’s words almost made Master Zhang spurt blood.

And those overseas cultivators, each and every one of them was left dumbfounded.

Huang Xiaolong had killed someone’s disciple, yet he still confronted Master Zhang right to his face, and what’s more, he did so with a completely righteous demeanor.

“Hahahaha~~~” Master Zhang laughed wildly in rage, “You fiend! You shattered my disciple’s soul, yet you still hold your head high, hahaha~~~how amusing, truly amusing! Do you think my Dragon Tiger Mountain has no one to respond?”

Huang Xiaolong fixed his gaze on Master Zhang, thinking to himself, this fellow is the incarnation of an exceptional and unparalleled powerhouse, you can deceive others but not me. Not to mention that, your disciples, one by one, they have committed heinous crimes, raising ghosts to harm people, consuming the fortune of villages and towns, creating human skin dolls… their misdeeds are too numerous to record. I see you are no good person either. Today, taking advantage of your birthday celebration, I shall settle accounts with you!

A murderous intent flashed through Huang Xiaolong’s mind.

Master Zhang had deep and profound thoughts, and although he had the intent to kill Huang Xiaolong on the spot, he had managed to calm himself down now and spoke with a cold and sinister tone, “Young man, I see you wish to make a name for yourself in the world, am I right? Today, the world’s elite cultivators have gathered at Dragon Tiger Mountain. In front of everyone, you want to show off your prowess by killing my disciple. You want to become famous, right? Yes, you’ve become famous indeed, but disaster looms at dawn!”

At that moment, Huang Xiaolong’s face still wore a mischievous and smiling expression. “Master Zhang, I think your mind is really muddled. I’ve been sitting here without moving a muscle, not provoking anyone, and yet your disciple secretly sneaked up behind me and launched a sudden attack, trying to put me to death… Now, you have the audacity to blame me? Is it that only your Dragon Tiger Mountain’s disciples are allowed to kill, and I’m not allowed to retaliate?”

Huang Xiaolong’s words firmly occupied the ground of reason, causing the majority of the people present to nod silently in agreement.

Huang Xiaolong had killed Bai Jingjing, that was a fact, but to say Huang Xiaolong deliberately flaunted his power, that was an unwarranted accusation.

“You still have the audacity to twist the truth!” A hint of embarrassment flashed across Master Zhang’s face. He knew very well what was right and wrong today. With so many people watching, if he directly struck down Huang Xiaolong, it would seem rather ungraceful!

‘This little bastard, he isn’t just recklessly impulsive, he actually knows how to use words to pinch me!’ Master Zhang felt an intense desire to tear Huang Xiaolong to pieces.

“Young man, what’s the use of quibbling? Your strength is obviously far superior to Jingjing’s, even if Jingjing was somewhat unreasonable, you could’ve just taught her a lesson, why go so far as to kill her?” Master Zhang sternly rebuked.

Huang Xiaolong shook his head, “I didn’t expect you to be so overprotective. What do you mean by ‘somewhat unreasonable’? She attacked me, trying to kill me, and that is just ‘being unreasonable’? My strength is stronger, and when faced with such petty people, I naturally have to retaliate with a deadly blow. If I were weak and she killed me, I wouldn’t have a chance to seek justice. In the world of cultivators, there is no such thing as reason. My principle is simple: if you try to kill me, then I must kill you! If you are vicious, I will be ten times more vicious! If you are cruel, I will be ten times more cruel!”

Huang Xiaolong’s words rang out powerfully and resonated firmly, which left Master Zhang speechless, unable to refute for a moment.

The overseas cultivators present nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Even Shangguan Lin of the Shushan Sword Sect nodded in agreement, muttering to himself, “In the world of cultivators, there really is no such thing as reason…”

Huang Xiaolong’s words resonated with these overseas cultivators. Of course, Master Zhang’s disciple was inferior in skill and tried to attack others sneakily, only to be slaughtered–she had nobody to blame but herself. Now, Master Zhang sought revenge for his disciple, and talking about reason was futile; he couldn’t outargue Huang Xiaolong. Either he would swallow his teeth and concede defeat, or he would have to crush Huang Xiaolong with sheer power.

Talking about reason was the most foolish thing.

Master Zhang’s eyes flickered incessantly, and his gaze took on a sinister appearance.

He had always regarded himself as an immortal among men, dignified in bearing. Now that he had lost the argument, to resort to violence–especially in front of so many people–he still had some pride to maintain!

At this time, however, Xu Bingyan boldly stood up!

With an expression of frankness on her face, Xu Bingyan slightly bowed to Master Zhang, who was standing within the Xuanhuang Tower with a face full of rage, and said softly, “Master, this matter indeed started because Sister Bai was aggressive and overbearing.”

“Bingyan! You!” Master Zhang erupted in anger. He had not expected that even his own disciple would turn against him!

Moreover, Xu Bingyan was a disciple Master Zhang valued highly; in his heart, her position was higher than Bai Jingjing’s.

However, for some time now, Master Zhang hadn’t been able to contact Xu Bingyan and was unaware of what she had been up to.

Today, he finally saw that Xu Bingyan was actually mixing with Huang Xiaolong!

In an instant, many disciples from Dragon Tiger Mountain began cursing Xu Bingyan loud and clear, denouncing her for her “rebellious and unfilial” behavior.

“You’re bending the elbow outwards!” Master Zhang cried out in mad fury and then slightly furrowed his brow. “Oh… Bingyan, what exactly is your relationship with him?”

Xu Bingyan respectfully replied, “Master, he is my husband.”

“Husband?” Master Zhang’s words were clenched in anger. His divine sense then swept over Xu Bingyan, “I see… Bingyan, you’re also being compelled against your will. You’ve cast a ‘Love Curse’ on this young man, but his mana is strong, and he not only broke your ‘Love Curse’ but also caused you to suffer from the curse’s backlash. Because of this, for the rest of your life, you can only be at his mercy~~~”
“Master, it’s true that I’ve suffered from the curse’s backlash… but my heart is true towards my husband, and that has nothing to do with the curse’s backlash,” Xu Bingyan hurriedly explained.

Master Zhang waved his hand, signaling Xu Bingyan to stop explaining. He then squinted his eyes slightly and looked towards Huang Xiaolong. “Young man, you must be laughing up your sleeve, right? You’ve taken advantage of the curse’s backlash to control Bingyan, and now you let her oppose me publicly. Is this to make me taste the bitterness of being deserted by everyone? Hahahaha~~~how despicable! How ludicrous! But do you dare to lift the Love Curse from Bingyan?”

Break the curse?

As the saying goes, “only the person who tied the bell can untie it.” To lift the curse rebound that Huo Bingyan suffered, only Huang Xiaolong could do it–it was because Huo Bingyan’s love was deeply rooted in him alone.

Master Zhang was put in a passive position by Huang Xiaolong, and at this point, he was determined to regain the initiative, scoffing, “Young man, see if you can undo the curse’s rebound for Bingyan. Let’s see what she says. If she continues to oppose me, it would prove that her love for you is true. In that case, I can overlook the grudge for killing my disciple Jingjing and let bygones be bygones. Otherwise, if she no longer opposes me, then I must seek justice for Jingjing!”

“Hahaha–you want to make a bet with me.” Huang Xiaolong laughed gleefully.

“Hmph!” A flash passed through Master Zhang’s eyes.

He was confident that once Huo Bingyan was free from Huang Xiaolong’s control, she would know how to choose!

“Hmph! Ever since her youth, Bingyan studied with me, and I have treated her well. She respects me greatly,” Master Zhang thought, his confidence overflowing. “Could it be that my disciple, whom I have taught since she was small, would stand by the side of this young bastard?”

Master Zhang had brainwashed every disciple he taught.

“Hubby~~~” Huo Bingyan suddenly glanced at Huang Xiaolong; her gaze was filled with complex and unsettled emotions, and she whispered, “Do you trust me?”

“Hahahaha~~~” Huang Xiaolong burst into loud laughter and then, without a moment’s hesitation, reached out his finger to trace an airflow talisman in the void. With a slap, the talisman entered Huo Bingyan’s body like a flash of light!

Crack~~~~!!!!

A shattering sound echoed abruptly within Huo Bingyan’s body!

It was as if some sort of shackle had been broken!

The next second, Huo Bingyan’s body trembled slightly, a glint of light flashed in her eyes, and her aura seemed to undergo a slight change, but she quickly returned to normal.

“The curse rebound has been lifted,” a cultivator from across the seas nodded.

“Bingyan! Now you are free from this young man’s manipulation, come back to your master!” Master Zhang gestured at Huo Bingyan to approach him.

Within the Shushan Palace, Master Zhang was well aware of the results of those who participated in the Xuanhuang Tower test that day.

It was crystal clear to Master Zhang that Huo Bingyan had reached the fifth floor of the Xuanhuang Tower, and her talent in cultivation was far superior to Bai Jingjing’s!

Now that Bai Jingjing had perished, Master Zhang was helpless, but fortunately, there was still Huo Bingyan, who was superior to Bai Jingjing in every aspect, which brought some consolation to Master Zhang~~~
“Master~~” Huo Bingyan did not immediately walk towards Master Zhang inside Shushan Palace. She lifted her gaze and looked at Master Zhang.

“Bingyan! Quickly come to your master!” Master Zhang grew somewhat angry. “What are you still standing there for?”

“Ah~~ really boring,” Huang Xiaolong shook his head speechlessly.

“Bingyan! Listen, now I give you two choices!” Master Zhang bellowed fiercely. “Either come over here, and your master will bestow you a magical item, ensuring that whichever overseas sect you join, you will be well taken care of. Should anyone bully you, your master will stand up for you!”

“The second choice! If you choose to betray, then from today onwards, your master will expel you from the sect! And, return all of your Dao arts to your master!!!!”

Master Zhang gave Huo Bingyan two choices!

The first was to leave Huang Xiaolong and return to his side.

The second was to betray, but once she betrayed, Master Zhang would destroy all her life’s cultivation of Dao arts! It could be said that the second choice contained a strong element of threat.

…
“Bingyan, since your youth, your master has taught you. Now, you should know how to choose without me saying more. Can outsiders ever compare to the grace your master has shown you?” Master Zhang’s voice softened.

He had assumed that once Huo Bingyan’s curse rebound was lifted, she would immediately return to his side, but contrary to his expectations, Huo Bingyan stood still, motionless.

Master Zhang became anxious.

It could be said that Huo Bingyan’s choice was related to Master Zhang’s face!

At this moment, everyone, including the overseas cultivators, watched Huo Bingyan with interest.

Everyone wanted to know how Huo Bingyan would choose.
