Chapter 365: Chapter 366: The Royal Clan’s Council of Elders
Long Ba sensed the crisis of death and immediately stimulated his essence blood to deploy his strongest Gang Qi.
"Golden Dragon Gang Qi!" Long Ba, driven by his essence blood, formed a golden dragon pattern of Gang Qi in front of him.
It was too late to speak, and in a flash, the Heavenly Walking Needles furiously attacked the Golden Dragon Gang Qi in front of Long Ba!
Boom!
Rumble!
The Golden Dragon Gang Qi of Long Ba was extremely strong in defense, actually withstanding six of the silver needles with brute force!
However, the remaining three silver needles were too powerful to be stopped!
With a "crack!" a crisp sound, Long Ba’s pride, the Golden Dragon Gang Qi, was completely shattered.
Thud!
Thud!
...
The three silver needles streaked like lightning, piercing into Long Ba’s body in an instant.
"Ahh!" Long Ba let out a piercing scream, his body heavily falling to the ground.
In contrast, the Medical Saint stood with his hands behind his back, unharmed!
The difference in strength was clear!
The whole place was dead silent.
"Holy shit, Long Ba has lost!
"The strongest overlord of the royal family lost to Senior Medical Saint!"
"As expected of the Medical Saint, too strong!" All the spectators were excited.
Glancing at Long Kuang and the other seven kings who were leading the charge towards Long Ba in a panic; "Teacher!"
"Teacher, how are you?"
"Cough, cough!"
Long Ba, with a pale face and a hoarse voice, said, "The Medical Saint is too terrifying. I thought I could withstand his Heavenly Walking Needles, but I didn’t expect to only block six needles, and there are three silver needles inside me..."
"Don’t move, a single motion and you’re dead!" the Medical Saint spoke indifferently.
"You old Medical Saint, even if you kill me, you will never be able to take our royal family’s holy girl!" Long Ba said through gritted teeth.
"Are you really not afraid of dying?" the Medical Saint stood with his hands behind his back and spoke with a hint of regret, "You’ve trained hard for many years to reach the level of a Battle Spirit. If you die, you’ll lose everything!"
Long Ba’s expression turned ugly on the spot!
The stronger the person, the more they treasure life, the more they fear death!
"Just hand over that girl, and this old man promises to remove the three silver needles from your body!" the Medical Saint said lightly.
"Teacher, why don’t we hand over that girl surnamed Su?"
"Yes, Teacher, your health is the most important..." the eight kings of the royal family urged.
"Shut up!" Long Ba yelled at them, then fixed his gaze determinedly on the Medical Saint, speaking as if ready to die, "Heh, Medical Saint, I have now joined the King’s Elder Council. If you kill me, the council will not let this go easily!"
The King’s Elder Council!
Upon hearing these words, even the Medical Saint’s eyes showed a flicker of disturbance!
The King’s Elder Council is the strongest power structure of the royal family!
Only members of the royal family who have reached the level of a Battle Spirit could join the legendary King’s Elder Council!
"I didn’t expect Long Ba to have joined the King’s Elder Council. Senior Medical Saint wouldn’t really kill him, would he?" Martial King’s eyes were profoundly serious.
"Hehe, not necessarily, the Medical Saint’s background is much more formidable than you imagine!" Jiang Gong said with a faint smile.
The Medical Saint rebuked, "What a joke. You use the King’s Elder Council to pressure me, as if I don’t have someone backing me?"
Just then, a piercing eagle’s screech came from the sky!
"Quick, look! A flying eagle is circling in the sky!"
"That’s a mutated Purple Eagle, rumored to be raised only by those qualified within the King’s Elder Council!" many were shocked.
Whoosh!
This flying eagle descended from the sky, landing in front of Long Ba.
Long Ba took a letter from the eagle, read it with a solemn expression, took a deep breath, and looking towards the Medical Saint, he said, "Senior Medical Saint, the King’s Elder Council summons you!"
Hiss!
The entire venue was shocked!
"The royal elder council has invited the Medical Saint?"
"Could this be a setup?" many people wondered.
"Medical Saint Senior, you mustn’t agree, that royal elder council is a dragon’s lair and a tiger’s den..." Liu Kuangsheng was full of apprehension, his complexion changing at the mention.
"Yeah, Old Four, you mustn’t go!" Ye Wudao said.
"Hehe, since the illustrious royal elder council has invited me, a distinguished guest can’t dash their host’s spirits, can they?" the Medical Saint said with a laugh.
Jiang Gongdao, "Brother Medical Saint, let me accompany you to the royal elder council then!"
"I’ll go too!" the Martial King spoke up.
"It’s Jiang Gong!"
"With the Six Lords of Dragon Country there, the royal elder council wouldn’t dare do anything, right?!"
"And with the Martial King accompanying him, the Medical Saint’s journey should be safe!" Many people who were worried about the Medical Saint’s safety breathed a sigh of relief.
"Martial King, you might as well not go, I’m afraid you won’t make it out alive from the royal elder council!" The Medical Saint said with a laugh, pausing before continuing, "As for Jiang Gong, your status is even more awkward than the Martial King’s! As one of the Six Lords of Dragon Country, those people at the royal elder council definitely hate you more than they hate me!"
Jiang Gong gave a bitter smile; indeed, it was as the Medical Saint had said.
Back then, the Six Lords of Dragon Country had taken power from the royal family for the sake of the people of the world, and the royal elder council held a deep-seated hatred for the Six Lords!
Jiang Gong’s expression was one of concern, "But Brother Medical Saint, what about your safety?"
"It’s alright..." the Medical Saint said with a laugh, "I have confidence!"
"Alright then!" Seeing the Medical Saint so resolute, Jiang Gong could only nod.
"Help me take good care of Wudao," the Medical Saint asked.
"Sure, don’t worry. With me here, no one dares touch him!" Jiang Gong said.
"Disciple, your master is going!" The Medical Saint looked at Ye Wudao with a smile, bidding farewell.
"Four... Four Master..." Ye Wudao’s eyes were teary; at the side of his Four Master, he felt the warmth of family, the care of loved ones.
"Medical Saint, after you!" Long Ba gestured invitingly.
The Medical Saint nodded, stood with his hands behind his back, and walked towards the depths of the royal family, resolute and fearless.
As time ticked by, every second felt like a year to Ye Wudao, the wait unbearably long.
One hour!
Two hours!
...
Soon, evening was upon them.
The night sky was dotted with cold stars, the autumn wind mournful and sibilant.
"So long has passed, why is there still no sign of Grandpa Medical Saint?" Xu Yuanyuan’s face was filled with concern.
"Grandpa Medical Saint is such a good person, nothing bad must happen to him!" Xia Shiqi prayed earnestly.
"Delay leads to trouble, Young Master, the Medical Saint’s extended stay in the royal elder council grows ever more dangerous!" Liu Kuangsheng also revealed a rare look of nervousness.
"If those old coots at the royal elder council dare to lay a finger on my master, I’ll go straight back to Kunlun to call for reinforcements!" Ye Wudao gritted his teeth.
Right at that moment, Jiang Gong chuckled and said, "Here they come!"
What?
Ye Wudao and the others immediately looked up, only to see the Medical Saint walking towards them with Long Ba.
"Fourth Master, are you alright?" Ye Wudao hurried forward to meet him, and seeing the blood on the Medical Saint’s hand, he asked in shock, "Fourth Master, your hand?"
"Oh, hehe, it’s nothing, I had a few extra drinks at the royal elder council and accidentally cut it!" the Medical Saint replied carelessly.
"How could your esteemed self, with your extraordinary abilities, cut your hand?" Ye Wudao eyed him suspiciously.
"Hehe, don’t worry about me; go to the royal family, see the person you’ve been longing to see!" the Medical Saint said with an easy laugh.
What?!
Ye Wudao was stunned, then ecstatic, "Fourth Master, are you saying I can finally meet Yueli?"
The Medical Saint smiled without a word.
"Hmph, boy, come with me!" Long Ba snorted coldly, his face full of reluctance.
