Ultimate Village Doctor-Chapter 393 - 425: Battle at the Summit

A bright yellow sports car screeched to a halt in front of Long Xiaoshan, the door opened, and Zhao Xiaoqiao jumped out.

Pointing at Long Xiaoshan, she yelled, "You had it coming, Long Xiaoshan! Not answering your phone, I was freaking out that you might have been captured by the Qiu Family. I searched everywhere and here you are, having the time of your life gallivanting around!"

Long Xiaoshan was utterly confused. He said, "Team leader, why are you so worked up? Didn’t I tell you that I took care of Qiu Haishan? How could the Qiu Family possibly capture me?"

"Then why didn’t you answer your phone?"

"Ah... hehe." Long Xiaoshan laughed without responding.

Zhao Xiaoqiao was livid. This guy was as petty as they come, she just leveraged his animosity towards the Qiu Family to set a trap and catch Qiu Haishan, it’s not like she intentionally made Long Xiaoshan offend them; she was just going with the flow. And now, this petty guy wasn’t even answering her calls.

"Xiaoshan, what’s wrong?" Bai Susu came over and asked.

"Susu Sister." Zhao Xiaoqiao looked particularly wronged. She had been staying with Bai’s Medicinal Materials for some days, protecting Bai Susu up close during the auction, and they had developed a good relationship, especially since Bai Susu was like a gentle older sister to her.

"Did Xiaoshan annoy you again? Tell me, and I’ll vent for you," Bai Susu said.

"It’s him! He offended someone and now expects me to clean up his mess. Instead of being grateful, he doesn’t answer my calls and even says he’ll spank me! You have no idea how much it hurts when he does that; I couldn’t walk properly for days last time…" Zhao Xiaoqiao blurted out like a machine gun, but suddenly realized she had said something inappropriate and quickly covered her mouth.

A blush flew across her cheeks.

Not only did she speak out of turn, but she had also let slip about being spanked by Long Xiaoshan. Now that Sister Su knew, she’d definitely laugh at her—a team leader spanked by her own subordinate.

Bai Susu gave Long Xiaoshan a disapproving look, thinking that he was really something, not sparing even a woman’s behind and spanking her to the point she couldn’t walk.

Long Xiaoshan gave an awkward smile.

"Sister Su, I was just joking with the team leader, only joking," he said.

"Do you call that a joke?" Bai Susu retorted. "Next time, no more spanking... Just talk things out nicely."

"Yeah, yeah, let’s go inside and check on the kids," Long Xiaoshan quickly changed the subject.

Bai Susu didn’t want Long Xiaoshan and Zhao Xiaoqiao to argue anymore, so she took them both by the hand and said, "Alright now, little Qiao, don’t be mad, it’s not good for you. And Xiaoshan, don’t make little Qiao angry in the future. She’s a girl, and you need to be a gentleman... Let’s go inside and see those children. Xiaoshan tells me they are under the control of traffickers; it’s really pitiful."

Bai Susu was exceptionally gentle and parental, and both of them nodded in agreement repeatedly.

They brought in the gifts for those children.

While Bai Susu and the children were talking,

Zhao Xiaoqiao gave Long Xiaoshan a meaningful glance, and they stepped outside. Zhao Xiaoqiao asked, "Did you really take care of Qiu Haishan?"

Long Xiaoshan replied with frustration, "Haven’t I already said it? Why are you so suspicious?"

"It’s not that I don’t believe you, but this is a serious matter. You said you finished off Qiu Haishan and even confiscated his Soul-hook Sword. Let me take a look at it," Zhao Xiaoqiao said earnestly.

Seeing this, Long Xiaoshan took out the Soul-hook Sword, "Here, take a look."

Zhao Xiaoqiao was curious about where Long Xiaoshan had pulled the sword from. Despite being a short sword, it wasn’t easy to hide. But everyone has their secrets, and after a moment of puzzlement, she was drawn to the sword. She took it and felt a chill emanating from it that made her shiver.

According to the Special Action Division’s records, the Soul-hook Sword should have a freezing function, and it looked exactly like the one in her hands, so there was no doubt that it was the Soul-hook Sword.

Such a sword with special powers was not a common item.

There was no chance of finding a second one, and Qiu Haishan wouldn’t have given his personal weapon to Long Xiaoshan.

Thus, she was certain Long Xiaoshan wasn’t lying; Qiu Haishan was dead.

She quickly pulled out a specially made mobile phone and dialed a number. Soon, the face of the Special Action Division’s director appeared on the phone. As soon as he appeared, he was furious, "Zhao Xiaoqiao, do you even follow organizational discipline? Not listening to my orders, where are you now? I told you not to act rashly, and definitely not to go looking for Long Xiaoshan. It’s likely a trap."

"Director, look at this." Zhao Xiaoqiao held the sword up to the phone.

The Special Action Division Director was taken aback. He examined the sword carefully and blurted out, "The Soul-hook Sword!"

"Yes, I’m with Xiaoshan right now and he handed over the Soul-hook Sword to me. I can confirm that Qiu Haishan is dead," Zhao Xiaoqiao said.

The Special Action Division Director inhaled deeply.

He didn’t trust Long Xiaoshan, but he knew Zhao Xiaoqiao well. She would never lie to him. Since the Soul-hook Sword had ended up in Zhao Xiaoqiao’s hands, Qiu Haishan was certainly dead. He was well aware of what the sword meant to Qiu Haishan. Without this sword, Qiu Haishan was nothing; the sword was as important to him as his own life. Qiu Haishan would not part with it even in his sleep, let alone hand it over to others.

"You say Long Xiaoshan is right next to you, let him talk to me," he instructed.

Zhao Xiaoqiao held the phone in front of Long Xiaoshan and said, "Our director wants to talk to you."

Long Xiaoshan nodded, took the phone, looked at the middle-aged man inside, and said, "Director, hello, I’m Long Xiaoshan."

The Special Action Division Director scrutinized Long Xiaoshan, who appeared to be a young man in his twenties, and said, "Long Xiaoshan, you claim to have killed Qiu Haishan. As far as I’m aware, Qiu Haishan’s ability was at least of the Xuan-level Late Stage. How did you kill him? I hope you can provide me with a detailed account."

"Alright, I’ll tell you..." Long Xiaoshan wore the expression of a lonely master and spoke indifferently, "At that time, I encountered Qiu Haishan on the mountain peak, and I knew right away that he was a master among masters, the destined adversary I’ve been searching for my entire life. With the bright moon overhead, it shone upon the colorful clouds returning home. We fought on the summit of Lu Lake Mountain for three hundred rounds, equally matched, neither of us able to overcome the other. At that moment, he used the move Celestial Fairy Flying Outside, a technique that flows at will like the pristine clouds in a clear sky, representing the pinnacle of swordsmanship. This strike was one that almost no one in this world could escape, but then, he met me..."

"Stop, stop! SHUT UP!!"

The Special Action Division Director’s face darkened and he interrupted, "Long Xiaoshan, don’t feed me that bull, tell me the truth."

"Alright then, truth is, I had an incredible helper, someone helped me finish him off. But you know, don’t ask who my helper is. This helper isn’t anyone ordinary, he had made it clear that I am not allowed to reveal his name, so Director, please don’t ask further," Long Xiaoshan said quickly.

"A helper!" The Special Action Division Director frowned.
