Chapter 572: Chapter 572: Touch and Die
Lu Yaosheng fell into utter despair, his strength sapped from his body. He knew that he was completely dood.
The Guardian Hall was his last resort, and now that the Guardians of the Eight were unconscious, and the n of the Law Enforcent Hall were all kneeling before Qin Chuan, how could he possibly turn the tables?
Lu Yanwu’s beautiful eyes stared fixedly at Qin Chuan. What bullshit protectors of the Guardian Hall; weren’t they also kneeling at Qin Chuan’s feet begging for rcy?
This was a man who stood tall and unyielding!
Tears of excitent welled up in Murong Mingyue’s eyes as they spilled over. Just monts ago, during Lu Yaosheng’s grandiloquent speech in the banquet hall, she thought Qin Chuan had truly been defeated. Yet, not only had Qin Chuan not lost, but he had also made the people of the Guardian Hall kneel at his feet.
Murong Jing’s eyes filled with complexity. Thinking back to his first encounter with Qin Chuan, he wished he could slap himself several tis. It was only because Qin Chuan had not held a grudge that a grave for Murong Jing had not been erected by now.
Murong Qin and Long Sanlin, husband and wife, faced fear and despair. The stronger Qin Chuan beca, the higher Murong Mingyue’s status in the Murong Family soared. After today, who else would dare to compete with Murong Mingyue for the position of heir?
"Mr. Qin, please save the Guardian of the Eight. If only you would make a move, you would be the savior for all of us in the Eighth Law Enforcent Hall!"
The leading powerhouse of the Law Enforcent Hall pleaded with a face full of sorrow.
Qin Chuan glanced indifferently at the Guardian of the Eight and then his lips curled into a mocking smile. He said, "It seems there’s still a bit of residue in the pot. If you all try hard to squeeze it, you should be able to extract a bit more of the concentrated dicinal soup. Feed it to the Guardian of the Eight, and I assure you he will wake up imdiately."
Hearing this, the people of the Law Enforcent Hall’s eyes lit up.
"That’s right, after taking the dicinal soup, the Guardian of the Eight already woke up once. If he drinks a bit more of the concentrated essence of the dicinal soup, he will surely be cured of his ailnt."
The leader of the Law Enforcent Hall slapped his forehead and ordered the third in command, "Third brother, quick, squeeze the residue in the pot and extract every last drop of dicinal soup from it for ."
"Right away, boss!"
The third brother responded and hurriedly began squeezing the dicinal residue with a jar.
"Cough cough cough~"
Suddenly, a bout of coughing sounded. Astonishingly, the Guardian of the Eight, who had previously passed out, woke up again.
The Guardian of the Eight asked in a daze, "Where am I?"
"Guardian of the Eight!"
Seeing the Guardian of the Eight awaken, the people of the Law Enforcent Hall were extrely excited.
The excited leader of the Law Enforcent Hall said, "Guardian of the Eight, this is the Lu Family in the Secular World. Mr. Qin just saved you. It was he who spared no effort, had us collect boys’ urine to brew dicine for you and made you wake up so quickly."
He did not forget to curry favor on behalf of Qin Chuan, utterly oblivious to the flash of humiliation and anger in the depths of the Guardian of the Eight’s eyes.
"Kid, this ti, I owe you one!"
The Guardian of the Eight gritted his teeth as he looked at Qin Chuan.
A smile played on Qin Chuan’s lips as he said, "No need to thank . After all, the dicinal ingredients were captured by your Law Enforcent Hall, the boys’ urine was gathered by your people, and the brewing of the dicinal soup was personally done by your Law Enforcent Hall."
At this point, he suddenly, with a beaming smile, turned to Qin Bancheng, "Oh yes, and as for the large jar you used to drink the dicinal soup, it was Great Elder Qin who personally found it."
Watching Qin Chuan’s teasing smile, Qin Bancheng’s face turned green. Damn it, he truly was a scheming man. Even at a ti like this, he did not forget to drag
into hostility.
Qin Bancheng felt aggrieved but couldn’t help but say, "When it cos to rit, Mr. Qin should claim the greatest contribution. After all, my preparation of the jar was similar to the task of the other brothers from the Law Enforcent Hall; we were all preparing things according to Mr. Qin’s instructions."
The leading powerhouse of the Law Enforcent Hall imdiately said, "Exactly, exactly, Great Elder Qin is right. Mr. Qin is indeed the one who deserves the greatest credit. If not for his exceptional dical skills, we might not have been able to bring back the Guardian of the Eight."
The second elder of the Law Enforcent Hall also said, "That’s right, Mr. Qin should claim the greatest contribution!"
"Mr. Qin should claim the greatest contribution!"
...
Once soone started, the others from the Law Enforcent Hall spoke up one after another, helping Qin Chuan to claim his rit.
Qin Bancheng’s face was full of smiles. Squinting his eyes, he stared at Qin Chuan, actually wanting to see how Qin Chuan would respond.
However, he didn’t see any anger on Qin Chuan’s face; instead, his smile beca even brighter. Qin Chuan suddenly glanced in his direction.
Qin Bancheng imdiately sensed sothing was amiss.
Sure enough, he then heard Qin Chuan say with a laugh, "Everyone, don’t be modest now. You’re right; it indeed was my knowledge of dicine that saved the Guardian of the Eight. But don’t forget, what was the situation at that ti? I had just fought with the Guardian of the Eight. How could I possibly help soone who wanted
dead?"
The people of the Law Enforcent Hall then ca to a sudden realization. If Qin Chuan hadn’t ntioned it, they would have almost forgotten that they were there to capture Qin Chuan and take him to the Guardian Hall for trial.
Qin Chuan continued, "It was Great Elder Qin who offered the family’s most precious treasure in exchange for the chance to heal the Guardian of the Eight. If not for Great Elder Qin, I would not have helped the Guardian of the Eight at all. So, if the Guardian of the Eight managed to keep his life, Great Elder Qin should claim the greatest contribution."
"Alright, alright, none of you need to be modest any longer. If the credit is mine, I won’t shy away from it. If it’s not mine, I won’t arrogantly claim it. If the Guardian of the Eight wants to express gratitude, he should properly thank Great Elder Qin!"
Qin Bancheng’s complexion turned pale. He would never have imagined Qin Chuan could be so shaless. Even though it had nothing to do with him anymore, Qin Chuan managed to redirect the hatred onto him.
How could he not know that the Guardian of the Eight, after waking up from the dicinal soup previously, had feigned unconsciousness? It was really because the Guardian of the Eight was too proud. If not for Qin Chuan threatening to continue treating him with the dicinal residue, he would certainly have kept up the pretense.
"Great Elder Qin, I will always rember this great kindness and favor!"
Sure enough, the Guardian of the Eight looked towards him, almost gritting his teeth as he spoke.
Qin Bancheng felt like crying. If he had known earlier, he would not have deliberately provoked Qin Chuan. Now it had backfired terribly.
After the Guardian of the Eight finished speaking, he looked towards Qin Chuan again, his eyes blazing with intense anger. He stared fiercely at Qin Chuan and said, "Qin Chuan, I will rember what happened today. I hope to see you again in the Ancient Martial World!"
"Let’s go!"
Following the command of the Guardian of the Eight, who couldn’t walk on his own due to severe sequelae from using the Asura Buddha Hand, he had to be carried away by the people of the Law Enforcent Hall.
"Mr. Qin, farewell!"
"Mr. Qin, we’ll be waiting for you in the Ancient Martial World!"
"Mr. Qin, when you get to the Ancient Martial World, rember to find us for a drink!"
...
Before leaving, several mbers of the Law Enforcent Hall bowed to Qin Chuan with clenched fists, their eyes filled with respect and anticipation for Qin Chuan’s arrival in the Ancient Martial World.
Seeing the Guardian of the Eight leading people away, Qin Bancheng also prepared to sneak off. However, he had only taken a few steps when he heard Qin Chuan’s voice filled with murderous intent from behind, "If you dare take half a step further, you die!"
