If it were anyone else, who would dare to speak to Xia Xingchen in such a manner, Xia Xinghe would have long made his move. But the one who spoke was Chu Qingcheng, and in Xia Xinghe's eyes, Chu Qingcheng was Nangong Xian, the woman he would protect for the rest of her life.

"You call this what you call the Way of Medicine?" Xia Xinghe couldn't hold it in any longer, the curve of his lips widened, "I'm using acupuncture to directly draw out the blood clot in Fatty's body, and let him recover completely."

Xia Xinghe didn't even bat an eyelid as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

However, to Chu Qingcheng, Xia Xinghe's words were like a clap of thunder, causing her to freeze on the spot!

"Acupuncture? a secret acupuncture technique which has been extinct for nearly a hundred years? " Only after a long time had passed did Chu Qingcheng start mumbling like she was in a dream. Her beautiful face was filled with shock, as though she had heard of a miracle.

Xia Xingchen didn't pay attention to Chu Qingcheng. Instead, he took advantage of the moment of astonishment to find a plant full of barbed thorns. After he pulled out a dozen or so barbs, he returned to Chu Qingcheng and Chu Rong.

The shock that the secret art of acupuncture and moxibustion brought to Chu Qingcheng and her sister was simply too great. Even when Xia Xinghe returned, the two siblings still had yet to recover from their shock.

Immediately, Xia Xinghe no longer hesitated as his ten fingers moved as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, he had accurately stabbed the ten reverse thorns into the acupoints at Chu Rong's throat, chest, and lower abdomen!

"Rise!" Xia Xinghe let out a low roar, and suddenly, the barbs that were stabbed into Chu Rong's body flew out from his body as if they were pulled by some unknown force.

The moment the reverse prick left Chu Rong's body, strands of dark-red blood immediately flowed out from the needle wound and continuously flowed out from Chu Rong's body!

To the side, Chu Qingcheng had already fallen into a petrified state. Like a stone statue, she stood still as she stared at Chu Rong, who was unceasingly oozing out dark red blood.

Blood turned from dark red to red as Chu Rong's eyes widened. His face that was covered in layers of fat constantly trembled. "Sis, I seem to be able to use the power of the Heaven Palace!"

Chu Qingcheng stepped forward and grabbed onto Chu Rong's wrist, which was so fat that it reflected light, and carefully examined it for a long time as if she was witnessing a miracle. Not only was her eyes filled with shock, her delicate face flushed and paled.

If you don't know anything about medicine, please leave.

I don't think you can cure my brother.

I'm one of the best doctors in Chu. If I can't cure him, then Eastsea City, or even the Chu Country, will have no one who can.

Chu Qingcheng recalled the words she just said to Xia Xinghe, feeling incomparably ashamed in her heart.

Looking down?

You don't know anything about medicine?

Was there no one in Eastsea City or even Chu?

At this moment, Chu Qingcheng only felt her cheeks burning hot.

Suddenly, Chu Qingcheng raised her head, as her beautiful eyes flickered with a strange light. Staring at Xia Xinghe with a complicated expression, Chu Qingcheng slightly lowered her head, causing her hair to fall down. Gritting her teeth, she spoke with sincere admiration, "I, Qingcheng, admire you for your special technique. I hope that you don't mind my words earlier."

"It's fine." Xia Xinghe lightly reminded them, "However, Fatty has been sick for so many years, his body has been greatly affected. You all had better head to Eastsea City to rest for a period of time."

"Alright, we'll head to Eastsea City now." Chu Qingcheng stared deeply at Xia Xinghe, and without saying anything further, she and Chu Rong headed in the direction of Eastsea City.

Although Xia Xinghe's words made sense, the incomparably intelligent Chu Qingcheng understood the meaning behind them. Xia Xinghe wanted to use this as an excuse to separate the two of them. As for what Xia Xinghe wanted to do, Chu Qingcheng had no idea.

All in all, Xia Xinghe had saved Chu Rong's life, and Chu Qingcheng would definitely remember it in her heart. Although Chu Qingcheng didn't even know his name, she would remember her annoying and unique face in her heart.

Only when the silhouettes of Chu Qingcheng and her sister completely disappeared from Xia Xinghe's line of sight, did Xia Xinghe's brows furrow.

"Fatty's illness is not an illness. It's clearly because his blood vessels and sky palace have been sealed." Xia Xinghe narrowed his eyes, as a cold light glinted in his eyes, "Those people dared to make a move against Fatty, are they planning to make a move against Chu Qingcheng? Looks like I have to increase my cultivation speed! "In my previous life, I was unable to protect you. In this life, I will definitely not let anything happen to you after you reincarnate!"

After speaking, Xia Xinghe flew towards the peak of Dragon Slaying Mountain, using the same trick he had before falling down to the bottom of the mountain.

"I don't think anyone will bother me here anymore." With a flick of his mind, the golden chest appeared in front of Xia Xinghe.

After knocking over the golden chest, countless gold and silver jewels fell to the bottom of the cliff. However, to Xia Xinghe, this wealth that radiated a dazzling light was no different from stone. What he truly cared about was several dozens of purple jade stones that emitted different shades of purple light.

This kind of jade stone was called a Spirit Stone. It contained a great amount of pure Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. Martial warriors could increase their cultivation by absorbing the Spiritual Qi from the Spirit Stones.

Spirit Stones were the same as Talent. Purple was the Spirit Level, gold was the Star Level, and purple was the Earth Level. Of course, the dozens of Spirit Stones in front of Xia Xinghe were all Spirit Level Spirit Stones.

"23 low-rank soul stones and 3 mid-rank spirit stones, that's too little!" "Fang Ruyu will definitely not come back alone for revenge. She will have many helpers, as well as those who wanted to assassinate Chu Qingcheng, all of this has yet to be resolved. Therefore, I must increase my cultivation crazily in the shortest amount of time possible."

With a thought, Xia Xinghe sat down cross-legged at the bottom of the cliff, grabbed three low-grade spirit stones, and released the Spirit Swallowing Heaven Stealing Technique.

In an instant, a terrifying suction force exploded out from Xia Xing, who was at the center of it all. The purple glow from the spirit stone in his hand was disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Within the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the three spirit stones in Xia Xinghe's hand had lost their glow and turned into useless stones. This meant that the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth contained in the spirit stones had already been absorbed into Xia Xinghe's spiritual sea!

He casually threw out the three stones in his hand. This time, Xia Xinghe directly grabbed the five glowing purple Spirit Stones. He repeated the same technique and once again crazily sucked in the abundant Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth from the Spirit Stone!

"Break for me!" Xia Xinghe let out a thunderous roar. The spiritual energy in his aura sea seemed to have received a new command, as it frenziedly surged about, frantically trying to break free.

Boom! *

A low, muffled sound echoed out from within Xia Xingchen's body, as if a layer of barrier had been broken through. Faintly, a faint cracking sound could be heard.

"Celestial Mirror, third level!" Xia Xinghe let out a low growl, an invisible force swept the gold, silver, and jewelry scattered all over the place, scattering them in all directions.

In less than the time it took for two incense sticks to burn, Xia Xinghe used a spirit stone to directly step into the third level from the second level of the Heavenly Palace's mirror.

Xia Xinghe, on the other hand, seemed unsatisfied, and threw out the five stones that had lost all their luster. Xia Xinghe shook his head slightly and said: "Eight low-grade spirit stones, only help me enter the third level of the Heaven's Palace Mirror, even if I absorb all these spirit stones, I can only reach the fifth level at most. With this kind of strength, it is far from enough to deal with the upcoming battle, I need more cultivation resources!"

After the breakthrough, Xia Xinghe didn't stop. He grabbed all of the remaining spirit stones in one go and started a new round of absorption and breakthrough at the bottom of Dragon Slaying Mountain, which was rarely seen.

Compared to the incomparably quiet bottom of Dragon Slaying Mountain, the current Eastsea City was completely overturned …

The news of the Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant assisting Xia Xinghe in massacring the Fang Clan spread like wildfire throughout Eastsea City. The entire city had been set ablaze!

Who was Xia Xinghe?

The foolish son-in-law of the Fang family, everyone believed that he was doomed to die. However, not only did he survive, he even obtained the protection of the Celestial Phenomenon Mirror. He retaliated against the Fang family and slaughtered their entire family!

Such subversive news was enough to make everyone in Eastsea City flabbergasted.

The Tu Clan hated them for murdering their father, so when would Fang Ruyu return to Eastsea City?

Xia Xinghe had the protection of a Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant while Fang Ruyu currently didn't have the qualifications to contend against an Ascendant.

Of course, no one would believe that Fang Ruyu, with the support of the TianChu Martial Academy, would lose to Xia Xinghe and the mysterious expert in the Celestial Phenomenon Mirror. After all, the TianChu Martial Academy had a powerful foundation, not to mention the Celestial Phenomenon Mirror Ascendants, even the Grandmasters of the Celestial Sect would have one.

Even the Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant behind Xia Xinghe, would he fight against the experts Fang Ruyu brought back in order to protect Xia Xinghe?

All these were the focus of heated discussions in the city. It was an event that attracted the attention of tens of thousands. However, all these were just superficial rumors.

A true big family would not talk about the surface of an event. The big family would look inside, for example, by standing in a team!

Everyone knew that Xia Xinghe hadn't left Eastsea City yet. So, should they chase after him, or wait for Fang Ruyu's return?

In fact, this question was easy to answer.

Fang Ruyu's future and background was far from what Xia Xinghe could compare to. At the very least, no one in Eastsea City thought highly of Xia Xinghe, so the answer to this question was obvious …

Before Fang Ruyu returned, it was a chance to kill or capture Xia Xinghe, an opportunity to ingratiate herself with Fang Ruyu and lick the heavens.

Almost at the same time, several big families of Eastsea City united to issue the city's hunting order. Small and medium-sized families cooperated with each other fully, sending out their elites to the whole city to hunt down and kill Xia Xing.
