The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine
Chapter 1003 - Chapter 1003 Chapter 1003 The Bizarre Master Zhang

Chapter 1003: Chapter 1003: The Bizarre Master Zhang! Chapter 1003: Chapter 1003: The Bizarre Master Zhang! Huang Xiaolong looked up and saw, in the main hall of the Supreme Clear Palace, sitting on the master seat at the top was a middle-aged man, legs wide apart, showing a majestic posture.

This man was dressed as a scholar, wearing a loose long robe, with a temperament that was very archaic and peculiar. He looked just like a sage educating the world in a painting, venerable and esteemed. Moreover, his aura was in perfect harmony with the surrounding heaven and earth.

Huang Xiaolong nodded slightly. This person was none other than Master Zhang!

In fact, Huang Xiaolong had heard of Master Zhang’s name for a long time. After entering the city, the evil demons and heretical Taoists he encountered were basically Master Zhang’s disciples, but they all died at Huang Xiaolong’s hands.

In fact, it was clear that Huang Xiaolong was Master Zhang’s enemy!

At first glance, Master Zhang’s aura was comparable to the representatives of the sea-crossing sects in the square, perhaps only slightly stronger but limited in its extent.

That is to say, according to the classification of realms by the overseas cultivators, Master Zhang should approximately be in the middle to late period of the Divine Skills realm.

But–

“Hm…” Suddenly, Huang Xiaolong’s eyes narrowed slightly!

Perhaps others could not see it, but Huang Xiaolong’s divine sense was unmatched. He had keenly sensed that although Master Zhang appeared to be seated on the golden throne, even Huang Xiaolong could not pinpoint his real location!

Why was that?

In fact, it was quite simple!

The Master Zhang seated in the Supreme Clear Palace was not actually his real body but an incarnation of divine sense! His incarnation bore the aura of Master Zhang’s real body, but since his actual body wasn’t there, it was impossible to accurately lock onto his position.

‘Hahaha~~~ How interesting! Truly interesting!’ The corners of Huang Xiaolong’s mouth lifted slightly. ‘So, Master Zhang, you’ve managed to deceive all the overseas cultivators who came to the Central Plains today! What a move to pull the wool over everyone’s eyes! Turns out, you’re the big fish! Hahaha! Everyone has underestimated you!’

Aside from Huang Xiaolong, no one else had discovered the incarnation of Master Zhang seated in the Supreme Clear Palace.

Huang Xiaolong even suspected that all this time, the Master Zhang in the Central Plains was merely an incarnation!

Where the real body was, he still didn’t know!

‘According to the overseas cultivators, once one’s cultivation reaches the realm of Heaven and Earth Law Phase, every single thought can transform into an incarnation. The fact that Master Zhang’s incarnation managed to fool all the experts here suggests that his true body could very well be someone of the Heaven and Earth Law Phase, a towering figure of such stature that even if placed overseas, would be a monumental bigwig, an overlord with immense power! It’s laughable, truly laughable. Those overseas deceased probably looked down on Master Zhang in their hearts. Their main purpose for coming here to wish Master Zhang a happy birthday was merely perfunctory, chiefly to absorb fresh blood. Little did they know that Master Zhang is an unparalleled powerhouse~~~ What a wolf in sheep’s clothing! Hey, as soon as Master Zhang’s real body comes over, all the overseas cultivators who came to the Central Plains today would be wiped out without a doubt! A master of the Heaven and Earth Law Phase can sweep aside everything…’

In Huang Xiaolong’s mind, various thoughts came rushing in.

With every thought he turned over, he found more and more doubts about Master Zhang.

Firstly, according to Huo Bingyan, Master Zhang’s birth occurred when his mother dreamed of a saintly immortal and then became pregnant the next day. She carried the pregnancy for thirty-six months before giving birth to Master Zhang. This was what meant by a divine incarnation descending to earth. This alone indicated that Master Zhang’s origins were a mystery.

Secondly, if Master Zhang was so powerful, why didn’t he expand his territory overseas and instead mingled in the decaying Central Plains? He had not made an illustrious name for himself overseas, yet he was willing to be the local king in the Central Plains. Why was that?

Thirdly, given Master Zhang’s realm, the disciples he taught were one worse than the other. Those Taoists killed by Huang Xiaolong were only capable of trivial skills like talisman drawing and ghost nurturing. Even the Chief Disciple, Zeng Qi, was of little consequence. It seemed he hadn’t even been willing to teach his disciples and grandchildren even the slightest bit of what he knew!

There were just too many doubts!

However, Huang Xiaolong quickly composed himself and a smile spread across his face.

Master Zhang’s disdainful gaze swept over Huang Xiaolong before he declared loudly, “Everyone, could you do me a favor and stop making things difficult for Jingjing?”

The overseas cultivators in the square naturally would not go too far. Although they didn’t think highly of Master Zhang, the self-proclaimed emperor of the Central Plains’ cultivation world, they weren’t prepared to completely fall out with him. There would be increasingly frequent collaborations between the overseas cultivation world and the Central Plains, and Master Zhang was a crucial intermediary.

In simple terms, Master Zhang still had great value to the major sects overseas.

As soon as Master Zhang spoke, the representatives of the overseas sects released the oppressive aura and the fierce atmosphere they had directed at Bai Jingjing and let it dissipate.

“Master~~~!” At this moment, with her own mountain of support stepping in, Bai Jingjing immediately burst into loud crying, filled with grievances, and ran towards the Supreme Clear Palace.

It seemed that Master Zhang usually doted on Bai Jingjing exceedingly.

Bai Jingjing moved quickly, reaching Master Zhang in a few moments, and while sobbing and sniffling, she whispered into Master Zhang’s ear. Master Zhang nodded slightly as he listened, a cold light blooming in his eyes, and looked in Huang Xiaolong’s direction several times.

But Huang Xiaolong appeared completely unconcerned.

Within the Supreme Clear Palace, besides Master Zhang, there were many other overseas cultivators seated, emanating mysterious and powerful auras. The place was a veritable gathering of dragons and fishes, with numerous masters present.

Huang Xiaolong even sensed that among them, three cultivators were radiating the Sword Qi distinctive to the Shushan sect!

Huang Xiaolong had deduced the Shushan Sword Qi himself, so he was able to accurately sense the presence of people from the Shushan sect.

‘Hehehe, even the people from Shushan sect have arrived~~ Before Ling Xiaopeng breathed his last, he issued a blood decree. These guys must have received the news of Ling Xiaopeng’s death by now. They are much stronger than Ling Xiaopeng; if they knew I was the one who killed Ling Xiaopeng, they would probably take action right on the spot to avenge him, right?’

‘Hahaha~~ Exciting, exciting, today’s gathering is truly bustling.’ Huang Xiaolong felt a little eager in his heart.

“Ladies and gentlemen, the selection of disciples by the various overseas sects will be put on hold for now,” Master Zhang shifted his gaze away from Huang Xiaolong and smiled faintly, “Now, the banquet may begin—-”

No sooner had his words fallen than Master Zhang waved his hand, and streaks of golden light flickered out, shooting towards the square. These streaks of golden light projected onto the square, twisted continuously, and then transformed into rows of golden chairs, luxurious and majestic.

“Please take your seats!” Master Zhang said with a smile.

Seeing this, Huang Xiaolong nodded slightly. He knew this move of Master Zhang’s was a spell that teleported chairs from elsewhere, equivalent to a space-transposing spell.

This spell wasn’t anything spectacular, but Master Zhang used it with ease, which showed that this incarnation of his was proficient in many spells.

“Thank you, Master, for granting us seats!” On the square, Master Zhang’s disciples erupted with orderly and respectful voices.

“Thank you, Master Zhang,” said the other attendees, including representatives from the overseas sects, also expressing their gratitude.

The next moment, the crowd surged towards the seating area and chose their seats to sit down.

This choosing of seats was also exceedingly particular, with the seats at the very front naturally given to the representatives of the overseas sects.

Those who had performed well in testing at the Xuanhuang Tower were seated behind them.

Further back were those who had only managed to pass the second level and could only work overseas as laborers.

Lastly, sitting at the very back were those who had been eliminated and couldn’t even work as laborers.

Huang Xiaolong was indifferent; accompanied by his wives and three little monsters, he sat down at the very last row.

“Little Long, be careful~~” Chuxia whispered in Huang Xiaolong’s ear. “I think Master Zhang holds a deep grudge against you.”

“Tch~~ My little wife, I’m not afraid of him. Actually, my feud with Master Zhang was already set long ago. I’ve slaughtered quite a few of his disciples. Even the chief disciple of Longhu Mountain died by my hand,” Huang Xiaolong said with a chuckle.

After a pause, Huang Xiaolong said to Chuxia, “My little wife, thank you for standing up for me just now~~ Haha. Now, you have become a genius that those overseas sects are scrambling to covet, a real delicacy.”

“Little Long, stop teasing me~~ I’m no genius. I… I’m just your little wife,” said Chuxia tenderly.

At that moment, Huo Bingyan bit her lip and spoke in a low voice, “Husband, if you and my Master were to fight~~ I… I would stand by your side! I… I would rather betray Longhu Mountain! In… In this world, nothing is more important than you.”

“Hmm. Good girl,” Huang Xiaolong smiled. “But indeed you should leave Longhu Mountain. You reached the fifth level in the Xuanhuang Tower; although your talent is not as good as my little wife’s, there will still be many overseas sects fighting to take you on as a disciple.”

Just then, they heard Master Zhang announce loudly, “Ladies and gentlemen, I thank you all for coming to celebrate my birthday today. However, before the banquet starts, there is one thing I need to address. Ah~~ Brother Shangguan, please speak.”

Master Zhang addressed a man who was sitting in the seat to his lower left, the first seat.

The man was dressed like a middle-aged scholar and had a square face that exuded both dignity and detachment from worldly matters.

The man smiled at Master Zhang and then rose to his feet, dominating the atmosphere of the entire place!

‘Hmm~~ What does a person from the Shushan Sword Sect have to say at Master Zhang’s birthday banquet?’ Huang Xiaolong’s eyes showed an interested expression.

“Ladies and gentlemen. My name is Shangguan Lin of the Shushan Sword Sect. Friends from overseas know me well, but those from the Central Plains may not have heard of me. However, it’s no matter. Today, I have something to say at Master Zhang’s birthday banquet,” Shangguan Lin said with a somewhat serious expression. “The Central Plains are vast and full of capable people. In the future, our various overseas sects will also continue to select disciples with talent for cultivation in the Central Plains.”

After pausing for a moment, Shangguan Lin continued, “Actually, today, on behalf of the various major sects from overseas, I want to ask the friends from the Central Plains to help us search for an item. This item consists of nine pieces. Ah~~~ Everyone, please look.”

As he spoke, Shangguan Lin waved his hand.

A giant scroll soared into the sky, unveiling itself before everyone’s eyes.

On the scroll, there was a painting of an ancient and mysterious black dagger!

“Oh? They are also looking for this…” Huang Xiaolong’s figure shuddered slightly.
