The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine - Chapter 690

Chapter 690: Chapter 690: The Art of Witch Doctor

Huang Xiaolong gave his name and birth date in the lunar calendar to the old man with a cheerful grin. The old man cast a glance at Huang Xiaolong with an expression as if he was looking at a dead man, then left with glee in his eyes.

Only then did Huang Xiaolong look at the invitation the man had delivered.

“Wu Lingtian”

“Haha, this name seems to carry a sense of dominance.” Huang Xiaolong laughed.

“Ah, so the so-called Master Wu is Wu Lingtian.” Ma Chuxia nodded. “Little Long, this Wu Lingtian is a recluse with a bizarre personality. He lives in a mansion on the outskirts of Dong’an city and is frequently visited by the rich and powerful. Unexpectedly, he turns out to be an expert in voodoo and evil magic. He has managed to hide well; our metaphysical society did not detect anything unusual about him.”

“I will visit him tomorrow…uh…tomorrow is his seventieth birthday.” Huang Xiaolong laughed. “What a great day.”

“Little Long, I will accompany you.” Ma Chuxia smiled sweetly. Favorably disposed towards Huang Xiaolong and aware of his terrifying true identity, she did not worry about him.

“I want to go too, I want to go too~~~” Xia Ying, Zhou Mi, Miao Erfang also wanted to accompany Huang Xiaolong to this banquet.

“Okay, let’s all go together tomorrow.” Huang Xiaolong wore a nonchalant expression, obviously not taking Wu Lingtian’s challenge seriously.

…

The next day…

Around lunchtime, Huang Xiaolong and his beautiful companions arrived at Master Wu’s mansion by car.

The standalone mansion situated amidst desolation looked like an aging man and seemed especially eerie.

To Huang Xiaolong and Ma Chuxia, this mansion certainly wasn’t simple!

At this moment, the mansion was shrouded with a stream of yin energy, death qi, corpse qi. From afar, it looked like the mansion was bleeding!

“Little Long, the mansion has a heavy resentment, it should be… many people have died here!” Ma Chuxia’s eyes were sharp. “That Master Wu, he’s not kind! He’s evil!”

“I knew this guy was no good from the beginning. Otherwise, how could he have tried to harm my wife Aoshan several times. My wife Aoshan, she’s very kind-hearted.” A murderous light flickered in Huang Xiaolong’s eyes. “Today, I will rid of this evil for the people. I will also avenge my wife Aoshan.”

At this time, they saw some tables and chairs arranged on the lawn outside the mansion. Several dozens of guests had already arrived, celebrating Master Wu’s birthday.

“Master Long, it feels weird, we came today not to celebrate but to crash the party~~” Zhou Mi stuck out her tongue and said.

Once the car was parked, Huang Xiaolong and the others headed towards the mansion.

In the lawn…

“Hehe~~they’re here?” Master Wu sat on a Taishi chair, dressed in Tang attire, his bird-like eyes and cold face were quite intimidating.

“You must be Master Wu, right?” Huang Xiaolong laughed.

“Young man, you sure love to meddle…you even broke my spell…are you provoking me?” Master Wu mocked.

“The few times before, it was you who cast a spell on my wife Aoshan, right? In fact, I’ve been looking for you all along, I didn’t expect you to invite me over this time.” Huang Xiaolong said with a sarcastic smile.

“Oh… are you talking about Miss Aoshan from the Ying family? Haha~~ that’s an internal conflict in the Ying family. Miss Ying Aoshan and I have no grudges, it’s just that Ying Chong from the Ying family offered me a hard-to-refuse reward…” Master Wu spoke calmly, then his eyes emitted a poisonously malicious light much like a snake’s eyes. “Ah! I see, it’s you! No wonder Miss Ying Aoshan survived my sorcery multiple times. The spell I placed outside the ancestral land of the Ying family was also dispelled… so it was you all along! Young man, you’ve been opposing me at every turn, good for you, very good~~~”

“Friend, today is Master Wu’s seventieth birthday, you don’t need to be confrontational.” Sat next to Master Wu was a man in his twenties, who carried an air of arrogance and nobility. His vitality was extremely exuberant.

Huang Xiaolong, Ma Chuxia, Xia Ying, all three could tell instantly this man was a grandmaster in martial arts!

He had refined up to 55 True Qi inside his body!

He’s an expert!

However, Huang Xiaolong, through his qi observing technique, found out this man had a severe internal injury in his liver, chronic and severe!

‘Oh… this man has damaged his liver due to his practice~’ Huang Xiaolong nodded slightly.

“Moreover,” the man continued, “Master Wu is clearly in the service of someone else. It’s not his fault. If there’s any animosity, it’s with his employer.”

“Huh~~ You’re defending him. Are you seeking his assistance?” Huang Xiaolong chuckled.

“Ah~~” The man faltered momentarily but quickly regained his composure. “Indeed, my name is Ji Zhengyu. I came here to pay my respects to Master Wu on his birthday, but I also have another objective. I wish to request Master Wu’s assistance to cure a hidden health issue. Master Wu’s knowledge and expertise in the art of ‘witch doctoring’ are indeed remarkable.”

Turns out, this “Ji Zhengyu” was seeking Master Wu’s assistance in healing a severe liver injury.

“Little Long, the Ji family is also one of the top ten ancient martial families in Huaxia. We should not underestimate them.” Xia Ying whispered into Huang Xiaolong’s ear, “This one, his martial arts skills are not weak, he must be one of the young masters of the Ji family.”

“Young Master Ji, you don’t need to meddle, this youngster came here specifically to cause trouble for me,” Master Wu shrugged indifferently, “Later, I will compare curse spells with him. Consider it as a source of entertainment for today, hehe~~~”

Master Wu then turned to look at Huang Xiaolong, “Young man, are you ready?”

“Ah? Do I need to prepare? I also know a bit of cursing. Dealing with you, I can just wing it. I have dozens of ways to curse you to death.” Huang Xiaolong was all smiles.

“Hmph!” Master Wu turned pale from anger, grinding his teeth and seemingly barely resisting the urge to crush Huang Xiaolong between them, “Good, good, very good.”

“Tell me, when do we start?” Huang Xiaolong asked eagerly.

“Young Master Ji, let me first heal your wounds,” suppressed his fury, Master Wu said to Ji Zhengyu.

Ji Zhengyu stood up and bowed, “Honored to have Master Wu’s help.”

“No need to be courteous. To form a relationship with the Ji family is my privilege. Young Master Ji, please follow me.” Master Wu also stood up, leading Ji Zhengyu to the center of the lawn.

There were various stones placed on the lawn, with strange runes carved on them.

“Young Master Ji, please stand in the middle of these stones,” Master Wu slightly smiled.

Upon seeing this, the guests surrounded the lawn, their eyes shone with admiration.

Someone whispered, “Master Wu’s profound knowledge, especially in witch doctoring, is fascinating. The ability to bring dead flesh back to life, it’s nothing less than a divine intervention!”

Ji Zhengyu took a deep breath and stood where Master Wu pointed, his face flushed with anticipation.

“Little Long, what’s this guy up to? There are runes inscribed on the stones, likely setting up some sort of Formation. Can this Formation help in healing?” Ma Chuxia was puzzled.

“Heh~~” Huang Xiaolong glancing at the space filled with stones and the runes on them, chuckled, “It’s Zhu Youshu… but it’s only a rudimentary version and it doesn’t have any healing power…”

At that moment, Master Wu took out a yellow talisman paper and read aloud some mantras.

Quickly, he burned the talisman, the runes surrounding Ji Zhengyu on the stones lit up, shining brilliantly, a sight to behold!

Strings of light seeped into Ji Zhengyu’s organs.

After a dozen breaths, the strange spectacle ceased, the runes on the stones dimmed.

“Hahaha~~~~” Master Wu let out triumphant laughter, “Young Master Ji, your injury has been healed.”

“My…my liver! My liver is healed!” Ji Zhengyu trembled, “It’s healed! Indeed… indeed it is! Master Wu, you… you are divine! I will remember this kindness forever! From now on, the Ji family will treat you as an honored guest!”

“Hahaha~~~” At this point, Huang Xiaolong could no longer hold back his derisive laughter.

All eyes were drawn towards Huang Xiaolong.

“You poor soul,” Huang Xiaolong looked at Ji Zhengyu with a schadenfreude expression, “You’ve been deceived, yet you regard him as your savior, that’s just hilarious. Actually, your liver was severely damaged due to incorrect practice, which stagnated your growth but wasn’t life-threatening. But now… you’ve got at most three years to live. How pitiful…”
