90: Xu Feng and Su Ran meet
Ling Xian didn't use his full power for this palm strike, using less than ten percent, but even so, it wasn't something an ordinary Third-Rank Martial Artist could withstand.
In an instant, Xu Feng was pinned against the wall as if caught in a vise, perfectly embedded into the surface and unable to move.
Xu Feng had progressed rapidly and had already stepped into the late stage of the third rank.
Although it was partly due to Zhao Qingfeng's secret assistance, it was more a result of help from his providence.
But Ling Xian was a Master; dealing with Xu Feng was as simple as squeezing a chick.
"Cough, cough! How can you be this strong?" Xu Feng coughed up blood, filled with disbelief.
Zhao Qingfeng had told him that with his cultivation aptitude, he was guaranteed to become at least a Grandmaster in the future.
Yet, facing Ling Xian, he didn't even have the power to fight back.
"Boring tricks. Let's end this here!" Ling Xian stepped forward and, using a bone needle according to the Golden Needle Technique, pricked Xu Feng's acupuncture points.
There was a lot of technique involved in this, enough to cripple Xu Feng's "third leg."
It would make him become increasingly effeminate.
The stinging pain and speed of this bone needle were simply not worth mentioning compared to the pain brought by the palm strike just now.
Xu Feng didn't notice this either... After walking out of the men's restroom, Ling Xian didn't linger.
"Sigh, why do Xia Mo and Wu Yueyue have to be teacher and student?"
Ling Xian sighed. Seeing no sign of Xia Mo around, he couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed.
"Hehe, but there's a benefit; the teacher-student relationship adds a durability attribute."
[Ding! Severed Xu Feng's "third leg," causing his mindset to become extremely twisted. Gained 14,543 villain points!]
Back inside the private booth, Ling Xian saw Xia Mo sitting beside Wu Yueyue, chatting and laughing, which left him with mixed feelings.
"Teacher, Ling Xian is back." Wu Yueyue's smile faded as she noticed Ling Xian's return, and she spoke to alert Xia Mo.
But as a Master-level powerhouse, Ling Xian's hearing was incredibly sharp, so he could naturally hear the conversation between the two women.
It turned out to be the awkward past of his relationship with Xia Mo.
"What exactly is the relationship between you two?" Ling Xian asked curiously.
Hearing this, Xia Mo gave a faint smile. "Wu Yueyue isn't just my student; she's also my sister."
The word "sister" was a bit grating.
"Alright, you two take your time. I'm leaving first." Ling Xian shook his head with a smile and turned to leave.
Just as he stepped out of the booth, Class Monitor had been waiting at the door for a long time.
"Young Master Ling, Young Master Ling. Wait." Class Monitor hurriedly called out, "Rest assured, I will never let Xu Feng get close to Wu Yueyue."
Ling Xian paused and spoke, "I remember you're from the Fang Family of Jiangnan, right?"
Class Monitor nodded quickly and said respectfully, "Yes! However, our branch is only a side line and cannot manage family affairs."
Obviously, Class Monitor also understood a bit about how the Fang Family operated.
"That doesn't matter. Have you ever thought about taking control of the entire Fang Family?" Ling Xian spoke playfully, his words filled with temptation.
"Haha, Young Master Ling must be joking. There are so many people in the main lineage, how could it ever be my turn?" Class Monitor didn't agree immediately but instead probed for more information.
"Besides, being a regular family disciple is quite nice—carefree and without burdens."
"And what if there's no one left in the main lineage?" Ling Xian smiled, a smile that was profound and meaningful.
Before Class Monitor could respond, Ling Xian had already turned and left.
"Young Master Ling, what price do I need to pay?" Class Monitor chased after him to ask.
"I need an obedient dog." These words were extremely insulting.
"..." Class Monitor fell silent for a moment. "I understand. Thank you, Young Master Ling. I will be that dog."
Ling Xian was also a bit surprised; he hadn't expected Class Monitor to actually agree.
Meanwhile, in the men's restroom, Zhao Qingfeng arrived. Seeing his disciple Xu Feng in such a pathetic state, he couldn't help but shake his head.
"Master, my 'brother' is gone. It won't get up anymore. Ling Xian crippled me!"
Feeling the abnormality there, Xu Feng could only let out a roaring cry.
"Master, why didn't you kill him? Kill him!"
Facing Xu Feng's roar, Zhao Qingfeng remained silent. He wasn't as sad as one might imagine; instead, the corners of his mouth curled up in an imperceptible smile.
To Zhao Qingfeng, it didn't matter if Xu Feng's manhood was gone; the most important thing was to stir up Xu Feng's rage. Only then would he become completely obsessed with cultivation.
Otherwise, if he thought about women every day, when would the Flying Fox Sect ever be restored?
"Get up, you spineless trash," Zhao Qingfeng scolded. "It's just a few ounces of soft flesh. It's not like it's truly severed. There are so many divine doctors in this world; could they really not heal your soft flesh?"
"What you need to do now is cultivate hard so you can take revenge yourself. I'll take you to the Fang Family in Jiangnan. I heard a divine doctor recently arrived there; it should be easy for him to treat you."
Zhao Qingfeng's sternness was interwoven with concern, all to maintain his status in Xu Feng's heart.
"Really? Thank you, Master!" Xu Feng's eyes lit up, a look of joy appearing on his face.
However, this joy was fleeting, replaced by a flash of ruthlessness.
At the same time, an imperceptible golden light flickered on his left hand. This golden light was extremely faint, seemingly a power from deep within his bloodline.
Boom!
Fourth-Rank breakthrough!
Neither Zhao Qingfeng nor Xu Feng had expected such a turn of events.
"Hahaha, as expected. As long as I stimulate Xu Feng's fighting spirit, for someone with such providence, breaking through is as easy as drinking water. I bet it won't take three years for Xu Feng to step into the Master rank." Zhao Qingfeng was secretly delighted, the smile on his face never fading.
Xu Feng was also overjoyed, and the pain from his damaged manhood lessened significantly.
The Fang Family of Jiangnan.
"Were you crippled by Ling Xian?" Su Ran asked as he looked at Xu Feng. "Do you truly hate Ling Xian to the bone?"
Xu Feng didn't understand why he was asking, but he nodded heavily.
After the last time, Su Ran knew that to deal with Ling Xian, he had to unite all the forces he could.
The moment the Ling Group entered Jiangnan, he began using the Fang Family's connections as a foundation to rally various Jiangnan noble families to resist.
He also needed to win over people in the martial arts world.
"Although this kid in front of me only has a Fourth-Rank cultivation, he has a Master as his teacher!"
Su Ran calculated in his mind, a smile appearing on his face.
He placed Xu Feng on a wooden bed. Seeing that even a slight touch on Xu Feng's arm caused unbearable pain, he was truly afraid the kid wouldn't be able to hold out.
However, these minor illnesses and injuries were nothing to him.
After finishing most of the treatment, Su Ran asked curiously, "Tell me, how did you provoke him? With your strength, you actually dared to provoke him?"
His tone was filled with utter disdain.
He had examined Xu Feng's body; a single strike had broken bones all over and caused multiple injuries.
Feeling the mockery from the man in front of him, Xu Feng clenched his fists but ultimately didn't strike out.
"Don't get worked up. Ling Xian was actually quite lenient with you. I feel he might have only used fifty percent of his power; otherwise, you wouldn't have had the chance to seek treatment from me."
"Besides, you have your special physique to thank; otherwise, an ordinary Fourth-Rank would already be dead." Su Ran was truly at a loss with someone who was so weak yet loved to play with fire.
