Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor-Chapter 911: Maintenance
Chapter 911: Chapter 911: Maintenance
"A net broken to catch a perishable fish? Just with you bunch of ants? Haha, Liu Poshan, aren’t you overestimating yourself?"
Shi Yan laughed uproariously as he walked step by step toward Liu Poshan.
With each step forward, an oppressive force spread further ahead. Liu Poshan struggled with all his might but managed to hold on for only a few moments before he was forced to retreat.
Seeing his father’s pale face and his body trembling slightly, Liu Qi took a deep breath, stepped forward, and stood shoulder to shoulder with him, resisting Shi Yan together.
Liu Qingqing and Liu Liehu quickly followed suit, standing on the other side of Liu Poshan.
Soon after, dozens of Martial Artists from Liuhu Village also stepped forward, releasing their Martial Artist Auras to confront Shi Yan.
"A glow-worm’s light daring to compete with the bright moon’s brilliance?"
Shi Yan’s eyes flashed with cold light, his black clothes billowing, as he released the full pressure of a Heaven Level Martial Artist. Invisible waves of force continuously battered the dozens of Martial Artists from Liuhu Village.
Aside from Liu Poshan and Liu Qi, the others from Liuhu Village were too weak. Dozens of them united but could barely hold their ground against Shi Yan.
"Relying on your numbers, are you? Martial Artists of Shi Village, let’s not be courteous any longer! Let’s go up together!"
Shi Feng bellowed, leading a dozen or so Martial Artists from Shi Village forward, lining up with Shi Yan, and pressing toward the dozens from Liuhu Village.
Although there were only a dozen or so Martial Artists from Shi Village, their overall strength was far superior to the Liuhu Village side’s dozens of Martial Artists. Their intervention immediately broke the defensive line formed by the Martial Artists of Liuhu Village.
Liu Poshan and Liu Qi, at the forefront, bore the brunt of the opposition’s pressure. Under the assault of wave-like Martial Artist Auras, they staggered backward, blood trickling from the corners of their mouths, having suffered internal injuries.
As for Liu Qingqing, Liu Liehu, and others, they were like small boats in a sudden violent storm, flipped over by the invisible waves, bleeding from their noses and mouths, their faces pale. The weaker ones among them fainted on the spot.
Without even physically clashing, the Martial Artists from Liuhu Village were already thoroughly suppressed, with most of them injured. Seeing this, Liu Poshan couldn’t help but let out a sigh of despair.
"If Qingqing marries into Shi Village, Liuhu Village will have no future; but if she doesn’t, and conflict arises, our village will surely suffer heavy losses... What should I do?"
Liu Poshan had robustly refused to marry his granddaughter off to Shi Village just moments ago, but now, his resolve began to waver slightly.
Deep down, Liu Poshan was absolutely reluctant to marry off his granddaughter to Shi Feng, but as the village chief of Liuhu Village, he had to consider the well-being of the several hundred villagers.
Shi Yan and his son, Shi Feng, seemed unstoppable, as if they would not withdraw until their goals were met. Did he really have to marry his granddaughter to Shi Feng to quell this dispute?
Noticing the changes in Liu Poshan’s expression, Shi Yan knew the man was weighing his options. He gestured for the Shi Village Martial Artists to pause their advance and shouted, "Liu Poshan, there’s still time to agree to marry your granddaughter into Shi Village! Otherwise..."
"Who’s this yapping and whining like a mad dog early in the morning? Won’t let people sleep, will you?"
A languid voice suddenly rose from behind the ranks of Liuhu Village’s Martial Artists.
Everyone was startled and turned to look. They saw a young man in a green shirt stretching his limbs as he walked out from Liuhu Village, a hint of annoyance on his face.
The young man had eyebrows like swords and eyes like stars, a handsome and free-spirited air about him. Who else could it be but Fang Bai?
Liu Poshan and the others saw Fang Bai emerge and couldn’t help but change their expressions, knowing that Fang Bai’s words just now would definitely enrage Shi Yan. Shi Yan was a ruthless man, and this time Fang Bai was bound to suffer greatly.
Sure enough, Shi Yan’s expression instantly turned grim. A strong intent to kill flashed in his eyes as he looked at Fang Bai.
Liu Poshan caught the murderous intent in Shi Yan’s eyes and shuddered inside, knowing it was a sign that Shi Yan wanted to kill.
"Little bastard, dare to insult my dad, you’re looking for death!"
Shi Feng, upon hearing Fang Bai insult his father as a "mad dog," became furious. Losing his temper, he immediately charged out and threw a punch at Fang Bai.
Shi Yan had realized that Fang Bai was a Martial Artist at Earth Level Perfection and knew his son was no match for him. Thus, with a flicker, he also charged at Fang Bai.
He was not trying to stop his son but was planning to join him in attacking Fang Bai. This would protect his son and also conveniently eliminate the youngster who dared to insult him.
As for whether or not killing Fang Bai would trigger a full-blown conflict between Liuhu Village and Shi Village, Shi Yan did not even consider it. In his eyes, Liuhu Village was just a pushover he could crush at will.
Although Fang Bai had been in Liuhu Village for only a short time, the villagers had already accepted him as one of their own. Seeing Shi Yan and Shi Feng, the father and son, join forces to attack Fang Bai, the several dozen Martial Artists from Liuhu Village were filled with indignation.
However, the father and son of the Shi family acted too swiftly and were too powerful, while the Martial Artists of Liuhu Village had all more or less suffered injuries. Therefore, even though they wanted to intervene and save Fang Bai, they were powerless to do so.
Liu Poshan had been seriously injured just moments before and was secretly recuperating. Seeing the situation, he let out a mournful sigh, knowing Fang Bai couldn’t escape this calamity. He closed his eyes, not bearing to watch the tragic scene of Fang Bai being killed.
Liu Qi clenched his fists tightly, his eyes aflame with fury. Ignoring his own injuries, he suddenly gathered his True Yuan, intending to help Fang Bai, but unexpectedly, his chest heaved with roiling blood and he couldn’t help but spurt out another mouthful of fresh blood.
"No!"
Just then, Liu Qingqing standing next to Liu Qi let out a piercing scream. Her slender figure suddenly threw itself between Fang Bai, Shi Yan, and Shi Feng.
She intended to use her own body to stop the attack of Shi Yan and Shi Feng on Fang Bai.
"Qingqing!"
"Sister!"
Liu Poshan and Liu Liehu, the grandfather and grandson, cried out in shock. In their expressions was sheer despair.
They knew that the area between Shi Yan, Shi Feng, and Fang Bai was like the eye of a storm. The True Yuan of both parties was clashing there, and even a Heaven Level Martial Artist would not dare to enter lightly. Liu Qingqing was only an early-stage Earth Level Martial Artist—how could she possibly preserve her life?
Shi Yan and Shi Feng, the father and son, were also taken aback that Liu Qingqing would interfere at this time. However, both were ruthless, and the force behind their attacks didn’t lessen in the slightest.
Their intentions to marry Liu Qingqing were false. The main goal was still to use this opportunity to suppress Liuhu Village. Since Liu Qingqing was unwilling to marry, it would be better for her to die. That way, Shi Village would have one less problem to worry about in the future.
Besides, Liu Qingqing was simply seeking death by acting this way. Later on, the father and son could shirk their responsibility, and the villagers of Liuhu would have nothing to say.
Shi Yan and Shi Feng had an unspoken understanding. Shi Feng’s fist was aimed at Liu Qingqing while Shi Yan’s figure shifted, bypassing her, and his target was still Fang Bai.
Before he even arrived, the massive Martial Artist Aura had already enveloped Fang Bai. The surging True Yuan carried by his fist—if it hit Fang Bai—would surely harvest Fang Bai’s life.
