Chapter 445: Chapter 447 Green Tea Performance [First Update]

BOOM!

Wu Tian threw a punch, followed by a deafening bang. The Second Elder’s face turned deathly pale as he flew backward, scraping violently across the ground.

“The third punch!”

The Second Elder struggled to his feet, but before he could even catch his breath, Wu Tian’s cold voice rang out again as another fist hurtled toward him.

At that moment, the Second Elder had lost all his previous composure. His face was a mask of panic, his eyes wide with fear. He desperately looked toward his disciples, hoping they would come and save him.

But not one of them stepped forward. Even his most beloved disciple, Lan Yun, turned his head to admire the scenery, pretending not to notice his master’s gaze.

The Second Elder was stunned. How could things have turned out this way?

But it was too late. Wu Tian’s terrifying fist was already upon him.

The Second Elder gritted his teeth and desperately tried to resist. His was a mid-grade Thunder Spirit Root, and he channeled its power, which surged to form a Thunder Shield in front of him.

Wu Tian, fearless, smashed his fist directly into it.

CRACK!

The crisp sound of breaking was followed by a heart-wrenching scream.

The Thunder Shield shattered, and the Second Elder was thrown violently backward. He smashed into the ground and began to convulse, too weak to even cry out in pain. Every bone in his body was shattered. He was a cripple, never to stand again.

“Master!”

Only now did Lan Yun and the other disciples cry out in shock, rushing toward the Second Elder twitching on the ground.

They were utterly astonished; their minds were reeling. Wu Tian actually beat our master? And in such a quick, overwhelming fashion? Three punches? Just three punches turned the Second Elder into a cripple?

“Do any of you wish to seek revenge?” Wu Tian asked coldly.

Lan Yun and the others couldn’t help but gasp. Although it was summer in the Underground World, they felt a bone-deep chill, and a shiver ran down their spines.

“No… we wouldn’t dare!”

“That’s right, we won’t.”

Some of them were so frightened they had wet themselves.

Seeing their reactions and observing their expressions, Wu Tian knew their courage was completely shattered. They would never dare to appear before him again.

“Scram.”

Wu Tian’s voice was cold, but to them, it sounded like a decree from heaven. They scrambled to pick up the Second Elder and fled.

Wu Tian let out a cold laugh. The Eastern Taizhong Palace? What was that to him?

He then took Qin Yuhan by the hand and went inside the house.

Yuan Beizheng and Tao Qianyang, who knew nothing of the Teleportation Formation, could only watch as a man and a woman entered a house in broad daylight and shut the doors and windows tightly. They were left speechless.

「The Surface World」

In a premium ward at the People’s Hospital of Southern Province, the door swung open. Wu Tian walked straight in, his gaze immediately falling upon Lin Fa on the hospital bed, ignoring everyone else in the room.

He stared at the figure on the bed, who was as thin as a bamboo pole. Wu Tian’s brow furrowed, his eyes gleaming with a cold light. He could hardly connect this emaciated man with the portly Lin Fa who used to struggle just to walk.

Even under the blanket, Wu Tian could see the sharp outline of his bones. He was so gaunt. Who would even recognize him as the chubby Lin Fa?

At the sight of Wu Tian, a glimmer of light finally appeared in Lin Fa’s lifeless eyes. He wanted to speak but hadn’t the slightest bit of strength.

A doctor was on duty in the premium ward around the clock. Upon seeing Wu Tian, he immediately approached with a respectful and courteous expression. “Mr. Wu Tian, it’s good to see you again. We’ve truly exhausted all our options for Lin Fa’s condition. We can only turn to you for help now.”

He still remembered when Wu Tian had killed the Sword Emperor right at the hospital entrance. He also remembered the employees who were on the verge of death. The doctors had already given up on them, but Wu Tian had still brought them back to life.

In learning, age doesn’t matter; mastery is what counts. The doctor hoped Wu Tian would take action.

Wu Tian understood what the doctor meant and nodded slightly. He would have intervened even if the doctor hadn’t asked. Lin Fa was his brother.

Just then, a woman in the ward spoke up. “Mr. Wu Tian, you may be skilled in business and Martial Skills, but perhaps not in Medical Technique. That previous incident might have just been a stroke of luck. How can we let you use Lin Fa as a guinea pig?”

Wu Tian turned his head and saw it was Bing Hong. How could this despicable woman be here? His brows furrowed slightly.

Noticing Wu Tian’s confusion, Lin Fa’s current girlfriend, Li Rong, quickly explained, “She said that after being with a few other men, she realized Lin Fa was the only one who was sincere. When she heard he was hospitalized, she came to visit.”

Is that so? Wu Tian scoffed inwardly. This was the classic playbook of a two-faced schemer. Back when Lin Fa was just a low-level employee, she wouldn’t give him the time of day. Now that he was successful, she suddenly claimed to have discovered that he was the only one who ever truly treated her well.

Bing Hong suddenly said, “Li Rong, why don’t you go get something to eat? I’ll take care of Lin Fa.”

What? Li Rong was stunned. She had only allowed Bing Hong to stay because the woman had pleaded so persistently, and being soft-hearted, she had finally agreed. She never expected Bing Hong to say something like this.

Li Rong was kind-hearted, not foolish. She suspected Bing Hong was trying to get her out of the way.

Seeing Li Rong’s expression, Bing Hong put on a frail act. “Li Rong, don’t you trust me?” she asked, her expression delicate and pitiful, as if Li Rong’s suspicion was a crushing blow.

Li Rong sighed and relented with a nod. “Alright, I’ll go eat then. Please look after Lin Fa.”

Bing Hong nodded. She then turned to Wu Tian, speaking in a soft, demure voice. “Mr. Wu Tian, I’m sure the Boundless Corporation has many matters that require your attention. You should go handle them. I’ll take good care of Lin Fa! I was wrong in the past, and now I want to make it up to him.”

She seemed genuinely remorseful, as if she had truly realized Lin Fa was a good man and now knew how to cherish him.

However…

SLAP!

The moment the words left her mouth, a sharp slap landed viciously on her face. Her cheek swelled up like a pig’s head, and several of her teeth went flying.

Clutching her swollen face, Bing Hong widened her eyes in disbelief. “M-Mr. Wu Tian,” she stammered, “why… why did you hit me?”

Even now, she maintained her facade of a weak, wronged woman.

“Hit you?” Wu Tian sneered, his eyes flashing with Killing Intent. “Hitting you is letting you off easy!

“If you dare to put on this weak, pitiful act in front of me again, I’ll kick you to death!

“That’s right. Killing you would only dirty my hands, so I’d have to use my shoe to kick you to death. At worst, I’ll just get a new pair afterward.”
