613: Chapter 609: Patricide (Eighteenth Update!) 613: Chapter 609: Patricide (Eighteenth Update!) “You…
How is this possible!”
Seeing Huangfu Cheng suddenly open his eyes and speak, Huangfu An retreated in panic, his face filled with terror.
Standing behind him were core members of the Huangfu Family like Huangfu Hong, all of whom displayed looks of shock.
These people had long been won over by Huangfu An, all in cahoots with him, waiting for the old man to die so they could divide up the Huangfu Family’s legacy.
Now, seeing Huangfu Cheng awake, everyone’s face was painted with surprise and anxiety.
you’re awake, you’re all right, all right…
Grandfather is all right!”
With an exclamation, Huangfu Juunrong threw herself beside the bed, eyes red and tears streaming down, repeatedly sobbing with joy.
“Girl, don’t cry; isn’t Grandfather fine now?
I feel much better than before!
Later, you should thank Lin Tian properly!”
Huangfu Cheng patted Huangfu Juunrong’s head and, after comforting her, turned to look at Lin Tian.
“Young friend, it was me, the old man, who was shortsighted!
I never imagined your medical skill could be so divine.
I thought I was on my deathbed, yet you’ve dragged me back from Ghost Gate!”
As he said this, Huangfu Cheng revealed a bitter smile, shaking his head, “This time, the old man owes you his life!”
Beside them, Rao Yiming had been stunned since the beginning, but finally, he came to his senses, took a deep breath, and approached Lin Tian with a formal bow, full of apology, “I, Rao Yiming, spoke out of turn just now, please forgive my offense!
Master, you are young, but your medical skill is exceptionally brilliant, second only to the three Divine Doctors of Huaxia that I have seen.
Please, accept my bow!
Huangfu’s passing would have been on my hands!
“Dean Rao, there’s no need for such words; you did your best for the old man,” replied Huangfu Cheng, waving his hand.
Then he looked up at Huangfu An, his face suddenly growing dark, and demanded sternly, “Huangfu An, you’ve been doing well, haven’t you!
Now tell me, how should I punish you?”
The Old Man’s sudden shout was like a thunderous strike, scaring Huangfu An and the others so much that their faces turned pale with fear.
Huangfu Cheng’s might was deeply ingrained in the bones of the Huangfu Family members.
Even the younger ones had heard tales of the family’s ancestor as an unrivaled master.
Upon hearing Huangfu Cheng’s formidable roar, all of them couldn’t help but feel fear instinctively.
But Huangfu An quickly regained his composure and said with a cold smirk, “Old man, keep scaring us if you’d like!
Don’t think that I don’t know that your cultivation has declined from years past; if it really came to blows, you might not be able to defeat me!”
Hearing such rebelliously disrespectful words from Huangfu An, Huangfu Juunrong widened her eyes in shock, asking, “Elder Uncle, what are you saying?
What are you trying to do?”
Even Rao Yiming couldn’t help but take a deep breath at this moment.
Huangfu An was courting disaster!
The deadly poison discovered earlier inside Huangfu Cheng’s body was most likely their doing.
What do you mean by this?
What are you trying to imply?”
At this point, Huangfu Cheng was shaking with rage, his withered finger pointing at Huangfu An, he shouted angrily, “Depraved son, make yourself clear!
Could it be that, you wish to commit patricide?
“Old fool, you should have abdicated long ago, yet you’ve clung to power, stubbornly.
Now that I demanded just two slots from you, yet you still refuse to see reason!”
Huangfu An hadn’t even opened his mouth when Zhang Li already began berating, “My son is the rightful heir to the Huangfu Family, yet in your eyes, he is less than nothing compared to that upstart.
It’d be best for you, old dog, to die!”
Huangfu Cheng, overwhelmed with anger, couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Huangfu Juunrong’s pretty face drastically changed, and she cried out as she supported Huangfu Cheng, her voice urgent.
“Rong’er, grandfather is fine!
You must leave with Lin Tian now.
Even if it costs me this old life today, I will exterminate these unfilial scions with my own hands!”
Enraged, Huangfu Cheng pushed Huangfu Juunrong away, intending to stand up.
Just as he tried to rise, he found himself completely devoid of strength, even the True Qi within his body was unresponsive.
“Old fool, with your puny cultivation, who knows how much it has deteriorated.
You still think to make a move?”
Huangfu An chuckled coldly, then turned to Rao Yiming and said, “Dean Rao, today our Huangfu Family is purging our ranks.
Please leave, the sight may be too bloody!”
On hearing this, Rao Yiming could only shake his head silently, eventually turning to leave the room.
Seeing this, Huangfu An stepped forward to Huangfu Cheng and said coldly, “Old fool, just resign yourself to your fate!”
With that said, his Earth-level Martial Artist cultivation burst forth, his palm wreathed in fierce Gang Qi and struck like lightning towards Huangfu Cheng.
But, just as Huangfu An’s hand was halfway down, it was suddenly caught by another hand that shot out, clamping down on it.
No matter how Huangfu An tried, he couldn’t bring it down any further.
Huangfu An’s face showed shock as he looked up at the person who intervened, even more astounded.
The one who had acted was none other than Lin Tian!
“You bastard, you’re courting death!”
Huangfu An froze momentarily, but then realized what was happening.
His face twisted maliciously as his other hand blasted towards Lin Tian.
“A mere Earth-level Martial Artist, so arrogant!”
Lin Tian spoke indifferently, followed by a punch launched directly at Huangfu An’s fist.
The now alert Huangfu Juunrong couldn’t help but scream out, trying to stop the fight.
Huangfu Cheng growled, attempting to stand and aid Lin Tian.
At this moment, the old man completely overlooked the detail that Lin Tian was able to block Huangfu An’s attack with just one hand.
All he could think about was how likely it was that Lin Tian could be gravely injured by Huangfu An’s punch.
Before the old man could even make a move, a dull thud resonated, and a mist of blood exploded, filling the room.
Huangfu An’s left hand, starting from the palm up the arm, burst apart, turning into a cloud of blood mist.
Huangfu An’s eyes bulged initially, stunned as he watched his arm explode, then he let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.
Yet Lin Tian’s onslaught did not stop there.
With force, he twisted and broke Huangfu An’s other hand.
With a muffled thump, Lin Tian kicked Huangfu An away.
Like a deflated ball, he lay unconscious on the ground, his cultivation destroyed.
In the blink of an eye, Huangfu An, an Earth-level Martial Artist, was crippled, leaving Huangfu Hong and the others to reveal looks of horror.
“Old Man, in consideration of Juunrong and for the favor you once granted, I will cleanse your house for you!
Such disloyal and unfilial beings, there’s no point in sparing them!”
After kicking away Huangfu An, Lin Tian turned back to Huangfu Cheng and spoke indifferently, then walked towards Huangfu Hong and the others.
