Unrivaled Medicine God

  He could feel that Leng Xu really did not care about the position of young patriarch.

  But Leng Hao did not believe it at all!

  He felt that Leng Xu was deliberately making him lower his guard.

  Ye Yuan raised his glass and said, “Good times today, stupor tomorrow! Forget all these unpleasant things! Come, cheers!”

  Leng Xu laughed loudly and said, “Haha, cheers! Today, I won’t lose to you easily!”

  Ye Yuan smiled slightly and said, “Competing in drinking with me, you’re not qualified enough yet!”

  While talking and laughing, the two drank another hundred over glasses.

  Finally, Leng Xu was overwhelmed by the alcohol and collapsed once more.

  …

  Leng Family, the black-clothed man came to Leng Hao’s courtyard hastily.

  “Young Master, things are bad! Iron Eagle, he’s … dead!”

  Leng Hao’s face suddenly changed and he exclaimed, “This … How is this possible?”

  The black-clothed man was still in shock until now as he said in a solemn voice, “It’s absolutely true! After Ye Yuan came out of seclusion, he directly killed Han Xiao at the Essence Gathering Pagoda. Then he was about to go to Guiling Tavern when someone saw Ye Yuan kill Iron Eagle with one sword move! Furthermore … Leng Xu was also around!”

  “One sword move? Killing Iron Eagle, he only used one sword move?” Leng Hao said with a look of disbelief.

  A First Firmament Celestial Deity killed a Fourth Firmament Celestial Deity with one sword move, how was this possible?

  The black-clothed man smiled bitterly and said, “Ye Yuan already broke through to become a Second Firmament Celestial Deity. Originally, this subordinate didn’t believe it either, but … this is the fact. Furthermore …”

  Leng Hao’s face turned dark and he said, “Spit out what you have to say, beat around the bush for what?”

  The black-clothed man’s expression turned somber as he said, “Leng Xu and Ye Yuan drank too much at Guiling Tavern again. Now, Ye Yuan sent Leng Xu back again!”

  Leng Hao’s expression was incomparably ugly, not expecting that it would actually be this result.

  A Fourth Firmament Celestial Deity powerhouse was already the limit that he could mobilize.

  Fifth Firmament Celestial Deity powerhouses had very high statuses in the family, they were not what he could mobilize currently.

  Of course, if he could become the young patriarch, it would be another matter.

  Leng Hao paced back and forth, seemingly digesting this news.

  Suddenly, his footsteps paused and he said, “Just now, you said that he killed Han Xiao?”

  The black-clothed man nodded his head and said, “When Ye Yuan just came out, Han Xiao’s sneak attack failed, and he was killed by Ye Yuan with one sword move!”

  One sword move!

  One sword move again!

  Leng Hao’s expression was not too good, this Ye Yuan was too troublesome.

  Leng Hao said in a solemn voice, “Don’t need to care about this Ye Yuan anymore! Han Dongjun that old thing treasures this son of his the most. He definitely won’t be willing to drop the matter! Rather, it’s Leng Xu. Looks like our plan have to start getting into gear! The position of young patriarch can’t be delayed anymore! Is there any news from the Qianling Manor that side?”

  The black-clothed man said, “Eldest Miss already left seclusion. It’s said that she already broke through to the middle-stage Fifth Firmament Celestial Deity Realm!”

  Leng Hao sighed with admiration as he said, “Qiuling is really a genius. Her talent really makes people blush with shame! It’s just a shame that she’s a girl! Alright, this matter, you don’t need to care anymore. I’ll go and find the family head straight away. The struggle for young patriarch should also have a result already!”

  Chapter 1847. This Battle, You Must Go |

  “Foster Father, this Dazzling Crane Plumage Garment was purchased by Hao-er from the hands of a True God powerhouse at a great price. This celestial deity mystic treasure on Young Sister Qiuling would be most exquisite.”In Leng Hongxiu’s courtyard, Leng Hao had a respectful look, carrying some fawning, and a bit of caution.

  One had to say, this Leng Hao was a fierce and ambitious person too.

  Many years ago, before Leng Hongxiu became family head, Leng Hao already acknowledged the other party as foster father and ingratiated himself with him in all manners.

  One could say that he was a character who was capable of dealing with people.

  Although he was a bastard child, his status in the family was still quite high.

  Being brothers with the young patriarch, foster father and son with the second master, all these were not what just anybody could achieve.

  Of course, Leng Hao doing so was actually just to make his life a little better, his future a little brighter.

  He did it.

  Except, even he himself also did not expect that Leng Hongxiu would actually become the family head one day, and his close brother, Leng Xu, actually became the Leng Family’s marginalized figure.

  This made his thoughts stir.

  In terms of talent, he was inferior to Leng Xu. But Leng Hao always felt that he was only like this because he was inferior to Leng Xu in terms of resources.

  One had to know how much he paid for the sake of today!

  As long as he could become the young patriarch, when he grasped power in his hands, his cultivation speed would definitely go up, and his position would also be more stable.

  Perhaps one day, he could take charge of the Leng Family!

  One had to admit, Leng Hao’s schemes were very elaborate.

  When Leng Hongxiu saw this gorgeous Dazzling Crane Plumage Garment, his eyes could not help lighting up.

  This garment worn on his daughter, Leng Qiuling, would definitely be as beautiful as a fairy.

  The Leng Family’s most talented descendant was not Leng Xu, let alone Leng Hao, but the Leng Qiuling who was known as an iceberg-beauty.

  Several hundred years ago, Leng Qiuling gained enlightenment on Dao on the Heavenspan Mountain at the age of 500 and stepped into the realm of Celestial Deity.

  And now, several hundred years passed again, Leng Qiuling already broke through to the Fifth Firmament Celestial Deity Realm!

  Such talent, placed in the entire imperial capital, it was an extremely dazzling existence.

  In contrast, Leng Xu paled much more in comparison.

  What Leng Hongxiu valued the most was also this daughter.

  What did it matter if he had no sons?

  With this daughter, it was enough!

  For Leng Qiuling to be able to become the family head, it naturally had great connection to Leng Qiuling.

  Among peers, Leng Hongxiu was not without competitors. But the elders council let him take over the family head with unanimous agreement.

  In reality, Leng Qiuling was not just his, Leng Hongxiu’s pride, she was also the Leng Family’s pride.

  The reason why Leng Hao put so much effort on Leng Hongxiu was naturally because of Leng Qiuling too.

  “Not bad, very good! Huhu, Hao-er, you’re very thoughtful!” Leng Hongxiu nodded his head in satisfaction.

  To martial artists, beauty was naturally secondary. The most important thing was that this Dazzling Crane Plumage Garment was a celestial deity mystic treasure, its defensive power extremely strong.

  But beauty and tangible benefits being paid equal attention to, who would refuse?

  Leng Hao smiled and said, “This is what this child should do! These few years, Foster Father has taken good care of me, Young Sister Qiuling and I are closer than actual brothers and sisters. What does this little thing count for?”

  Leng Hongxiu gave Leng Hao a glance and said smilingly, “Hao-er, I’ve discussed with the elders council a few days ago. They feel that Xu-er continuing to hold the position of young patriarch now is indeed rather awkward. Of course, you also have to bring out the corr
esponding strength. Ten days later, you and Xu-er will have a competition. The victor will become the new young patriarch! I have no biological son, but you’re my son!”

  When Leng Hao heard this, he prostrated on the ground, tears on his face as he said, “Foster Father, this child … this child, really don’t know what to say.”

  Leng Hongxiu helped him up and said smilingly, “It’s been so many years, does Father still not know your character? You’re different from the rest. Back then, I haven’t risen to power yet. Qiuling’s talent also hasn’t been revealed yet, and you got quite close to our family.”

  Leng Hao’s face was extremely moved, but in his heart, he was filled with ecstasy.

  So many years of investment, it was finally time for the returns. How could he not be agitated?

  Leng Hao was different from the rest. When others were hugging the family head’s thigh, he did not go.

  Because he did not have that qualification.

  Hence, he deliberately approached Leng Xu and Leng Qiuling.

  When Leng Qiuling was very young, he saw that terrifying cultivation talent of Leng Qiuling’s one time. At that time, he decided to invest in her.

  Along with Leng Hao’s standing rising, his ambition also grew greater and greater.

  Leng Hongxiu said, “I know that your strength is stronger than Xu-er’s. But this competition is of utmost importance. Sharpening the spear just before going into battle, even if it’s not sharp, it will also be bright. These ten days, you cultivate well, don’t be distracted by other things.”

  Leng Hao bid farewell and left. A beautiful figure stepped out of the void.

  “Father!”

  Leng Hongxiu looked at his daughter with a doting look and said with a smile, “You and Hao-er played since young. Why is now that you’re not even willing to meet him now?”

  Leng Qiuling frowned slightly and said, “Big Brother Leng Hao he … changed!”

  Leng Hongxiu said, “People will always change. Come, try put on this Dazzling Crane Plumage Garment. This kid is thoughtful too.”

  Leng Qiuling instinctively resisted a little, but seeing that Father was very enthusiastic, she finally still put it on.

  …

  In Leng Xu’s courtyard, Leng Xu was drowning his sorrows in wine again.

  Ye Yuan smiled and said, “There are still ten days, then it’s the battle to determine the young patriarch. But you’re being dispirited here. Is it really okay?”

  Leng Xu directly raised the jar and said to Ye Yuan, “Drink! This kind of lousy thing, care about it for what?”

  Ye Yuan pressed down his wine jaw and shook his head and said, “Treat you as a brother, I’ll say a few words from the bottom of my heart. If you won’t listen, just take it as I didn’t say anything.”

  Seeing Ye Yuan’s solemness, Leng Xu could not help being surprised.

  These few days, Ye Yuan had been drinking with him to relieve boredom all along, and never said a word.

  Today, no idea why, he would actually be so serious.

  Leng Xu already regarded Ye Yuan as his only brother now, and naturally attached great importance to his attitude.

  He nodded his head, put down the wine jar, and said, “You say.”

  Ye Yuan said, “This battle, you must go! Furthermore, you must win!”

  Leng Xu’s brows furrowed and he said, “What for? Brother Ye, I …”

  Ye Yuan interrupted him, saying, “I know that you’re not inclined towards the position of young patriarch. But it’s precisely because of this that you have to go even more! You can disregard this empty reputation. But if you even lose your heart of martial arts, you’ll be a walking corpse in the future! This kind of person, who will think much of you? I’m willing to drink with you because I feel that your character is unrestrained and carefree, and not because you’re a good-for-nothing! Moreover, your father made you the young patriarch. Do you want to tell everybody that the former family head appointed a good-for-nothing?”

  Ye Yuan’s words were akin to a series of thunderbolts, which sounded out in Leng Xu’s heart.

  Ye Yuan continued and said, “Your father was killed; your brother betrayed you. You indeed have sufficient reason to be decadent. But you ask yourself, are you resigned to it? Your father’s grudge, are you not avenging anymore? Also, Leng Hao, he already wants to send you to your doom. Once he holds power, do you feel that he’ll allow you to live? Therefore, this battle, you have to win! Even if after you win, you tell everyone that you feel it is beneath your dignity to be their young patriarch!”

  Leng Xu’s gaze gradually changed.

  From hazy, it became resolute.

  Indeed, he had far too many things to do!

  Lifting his head, Leng Xu downed the jar of wine and said, “Brother Ye, thank you!”

  Chapter 1848. What the Hell Happened? |

  “Young Patriarch, it’s not good!”Leng Hao was currently cultivating in closed-seclusion when the black-clothed man suddenly barged in.

  The battle to determine the young patriarch was about to come to an end immediately, the black-clothed man observed his speech and countenance, and already quietly changed his term of address.

  Sure enough, the moment Leng Hao heard, his mood immediately became much better.

  “Mn? What’s going on?”

  The black-clothed man said, “A few days ago, Leng Xu was still spending his days dispiritedly and indulging in excessive drinking every day. Since yesterday, someone saw him practicing the sword in the courtyard, seemingly very hardworking.”

  The moment Leng Hao heard, he laughed disdainfully and said, “What is ten days of effort enough to do? No matter how he trains, he’s also not my match! You came to interrupt my cultivation for this matter?”

  The black-clothed man was startled inwardly and said, “Young Master’s many years of hard work has already reached the most critical juncture. You mustn’t be careless!”

  Leng Hao’s brows furrowed. He thought about it and said, “Forget it, your reminder makes sense. There’s a bottle of Heavenly Fragrance Tendon Softening Powder here, enough to make the person’s divine essence not circulate smoothly. You find an opportunity and let my good younger brother consume it. This battle, I want to beat him openly and uprightly!”

  As he said, Leng Hao fished out a small bottle and passed it to the black-clothed man.

  The Heavenly Fragrance Tendon Softening Powder was colorless and tasteless. Even if one drank it, it would not be discovered either.

  Only during the competition would flaws be revealed.

  The black-clothed man smiled when he heard that and said, “Many years of long-cherished wish finally becoming real. This lowly one congratulates young patriarch in advance here!”

  …

  The ten-day period passed in a twinkle. On this day, many people gathered on the Leng Family’s practicing field.

  The Leng Family’s disciples, family guards, even servants, all came to watch this battle of young patriarch.

  “Heh, the superficiality of human relationships, the old family head passed away unexpectedly. Now, Leng Xu can’t even keep the position of young patriarch.”

  “This battle is also just a formality. Leng Xu’s strength is not as good as Leng Hao’s to begin with.”

  “If Leng Xu is sensible, he should have directly given up today.”

  …

  The fickleness of human nature was nothing more than this.

  The old family head had already died for many years. Now, Leng Hao was akin to the noon-day sun. Everyone all knew that he was about to become the young patriarch. There naturally would not be anyone who would go and fawn on Leng Xu anymore.

  In a large family clan like the Leng Family, human relationships were even colder.

  Perhaps because he was about to become the young patriarch, Leng Hao seemed very enthusiastic. He had long arrived at the ring.

  For this kind of important event, Leng Hongxiu as well as the Leng Family’s elders a
lso all showed up one after another. Only Leng Xu failed to show up.

  An elder was somewhat impatient from waiting and said with a cold snort, “Humph! This Leng Xu is also too outrageous, making so many of us elders wait for him alone! I think that he, this young patriarch, really don’t have a need to continue to be one anymore.”

  “Leng Xu is too undisciplined and carefree. He’s normally not very respectful to elders. Speaking of which, Leng Hao this child is really not bad.”

  The other few elders also seemed rather impatient and echoed in agreement.

  When Leng Hao heard these elders’ discussion, he was pleased with himself inwardly.

  These elders, he normally waited upon them nice and cozily. How was it condescending like Leng Xu, not paying any attention to the elders at all?

  Hence, Leng Xu’s position of young patriarch also sent him onto the road to ruin.

  Leng Hao smiled when he heard that and said, “This battle is very important. Young Brother Xu preparing longer is understandable. Hope that elders can be patient and wait a while longer.”

  Leng Hao’s words immediately made the elders feel content.

  Even Leng Hongxiu also could not nitpick any problem, secretly nodding his head.

  Except, that celestial maiden-looking woman next to him furrowed her brows, appearing somewhat uncomfortable.

  Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd, automatically opening up a path.

  A handsome young man leaped lighting, jumping onto the ring.

  He looked at Leng Hao and said with a faint smile, “It’s still Big Brother Hao who understands me. Such an important battle, how can I not prepare properly?”

  The current Leng Xu, the decadence on his face was swept clean, his spirits soaring, like he gained a new lease on life.

  When Leng Hao saw that faint smile of Leng Xu’s, he could not help being surprised in his heart.

  In the past, what he saw in Leng Xu’s eyes was pain and decadence. But the Leng Xu today seemed to be different from in the past.

  What the hell happened in these ten days?

  Suddenly, his face changed and he said, “You actually broke through!”
