Transcending the Nine Heavens

As Chu Feiyan continued to worry about Chu Yang’s plan, the darkness had already fallen.

Outdoors, there was a slight breeze.

Everything was silent!

The clock had struck past 11 pm.

Suddenly, with a ‘bang’, the door of the medical center was kicked open. The tattered door panels instantly turned into wood dust, which scattered in all directions. With a loud laugh, six people in black clothes and veils swaggered in. Taking a glance at everyone sitting within the center, they were at first startled, then said, laughing, “Fourth Elder Chu, Fourth Elder Chu, are these your assistants that you’ve found?”

Chu Feiyan snorted and said, “In confronting you guys who like to dodge here and there, do I even need experts?”

The leader smiled sinisterly, “What a glib tongue! You shan’t annoy me further, Fourth Elder Chu. Although we won’t go so far as to take your life, we may still make you permanently disabled if we’re not careful enough… That won’t be good then.”

Chu Yang snorted and said, “Fourth uncle, quickly bring Le’er into the room.”

While Chu Feiyan still wanted to talk further, Chu Le’er had already dragged him along to run into the room.

“Stop them! We shall kill all the people of the Chu clan except for these few!” the leader of the few men in black yelled.

The ten or so assistants who were invited here by Chu Yang leaped out at the same time and started to fight with their opponents without saying a word, as if they were ten dumbs.

The six veiled men sneered, pulled out their swords, and rushed towards them!

In their eyes, these ten people were really not their enemies!

Only at the first charge, shrill cries were heard! Among the ten, six of them were already injured. Blood was scattered all over, and along with shrill cries, they passed out.

Chu Feiyan was very anxious as he watched at the door. He was almost about to jump out, when he was dragged on firmly by Chu Le’er.

Ever since their enemies had appeared, Chu Yang had hidden himself among the purple bamboos. At this moment, no one noticed that he had turned on a cold look, and his eyes had also turned sharp and merciless. He was all ready to deal with any unexpected situations…

Now, it was not Chu Yang, but the sword spirit, who was standing there!

“Chu Feiyan, do you only ask for these bunch of garbage to be your assistants?” that leader shouted proudly. Although he ordered for the entire Chu clan to be killed, it was all bark and no bite, as he was afraid that this would be a trap — there might be hidden experts who hadn’t revealed themselves yet. So as long as he didn’t take extreme actions, there would still be room for escaping.

While he punched and kicked, he looked around at his surroundings. If there was really a trap… humph, as long as Old Master Chu wasn’t involved… even if Chu Feiling came to confront him and he couldn’t defeat Chu Feiling, there would still be a way for his own people to escape. They would definitely leave without any trace…

After waiting for a long time and seeing that no one came out, the leader laughed, “Chu Feiyan, do you really not want your nephew’s life?”

At this moment, an angry and extremely murderous voice boomed, “Take down all these bold gangsters!”

It sounded as deep as thunder! As if the entire night sky shook with the sound.

Chu Yang smiled in his heart. The sword spirit’s task was instantly terminated and he returned to the Nine Tribulations Space.

The men in black lifted their swords and stepped back. They looked up and saw all four sides of the medical center full of people. There were 20 to 30 of them besieging them completely.

Instantly, they panicked: The cultivations of these people are not low… Where do so many experts from the Chu clan come from?

When they were still in their doubts, footsteps rang outside the broken door of the medical center. Two figures came in from the dark.

One of them had a long, flying beard, while the other had a bald head which even beamed in the dark. Both of them looked grim and murderous.

This beard and bald head were simply two known trademarks of the Flat Mountain Ridge! It would be a wonder if anyone in the Flat Mountain Ridge couldn’t recognize them.

“Damn it, we’ve fallen into a trap!” The leader amongst the black-clothed men instantly lost color on his face. At the same time, he felt very miserable: Why did these two people appear here?

And… Why would they want to take care of the business of our Xiao clan?

Sha Xinliang stepped forward slowly, his eyes were cold and his face looked as stiff as iron. Clasping his hands behind his back, he yelled, “Are you still planning to resist so desperately in front of me?”

The leader amongst the black-clothed men sighed and said, “Oh, it’s Old Sha. Since Old Sha is here, we’ll not make trouble any further. We really desire for your magnanimity and please let us out!”

“Let you out?” Sha Xinliang sneered, “Then, who the f**k is going to let me out?!”

That leader thought: What happened? Who dared to force you?

He went two steps forward and lowered his voice, “Old Sha, we’re from the Xiao clan… Shall you let us off the hook today, we’ll definitely repay you tomorrow.” He paused for a while and said again, “Since this place is shielded by Old Sha, we shall not stir up any trouble here in the future.”

He thought: This kind of things had happened for many times already. This crisis would definitely be dispersed after I said these words. After all, Sha Xinliang appreciates the temperaments of people well.

Never did he expect that before he finished saying, Sha Xinliang was already staring at him and scolding him in an impartial way, “I don’t care whether you’re from a small clan or big clan! I’m impartial in law enforcement! Nobody shall enjoy impunity when they violate the laws of the Nine Heavens! All of you, put down your masks. Everyone on my side, seal all their cultivations and bundle them up!”

That leader hadn’t expected this to happen, and his jaws almost dropped onto the ground. He said in a perplexed manner, “Old Sha, why are you…”

Sha Xinliang slapped on the leader’s face heavily, causing him to spin like a gyro on the ground, then he yelled, “F**k your grandmother off! You wanted to cut off my means of subsistence! You actually dare to make law enforcement difficult for me! You’re a bastard who had crawled up from a whore’s crotch!”

Sha Xinliang snorted angrily and said, “I sent ten iron-plate law-enforcement officers to guard here, and you injured nine of them! You’re really bold. I really admire your bravery.”

At this moment, the ten law-enforcement officers pulled down their veils and removed their black robes to reveal their official robes. However, the robes were stained with blood, with holes and cuts all over. Obviously, all of them were severely injured.

The six people with black veils sank their hearts: We’re game over now! The evidence of our wrongdoings is now solid!

So-called robberies were small matters to law-enforcement officers, but killing law-enforcement officers and going against law enforcement were the most serious taboos within the entire organization!

This is clearly a trap that has been waiting for us to jump into it! Our success last night has made us so complacent that we stupidly fell into the trap and got red-handed today.

Sha Xinliang and Qin Baoshan are here. If we resist at this moment, we’ll definitely not be their opponents. We’ll be charged more heavily and it’ll be like suicide for us…

They didn’t dare to continue to resist, so they stood honestly in a downcast manner. After their cultivations were locked, the law-enforcement officers tied their hands behind their backs. But they still contained a glimpse of hope: We’re after all from the Xiao clan, so Sha Xinliang won’t take actions so definitively. After sitting for some while in the Law Enforcement Hall, we’ll be fetched out by our clan…

At this moment, Big Boss Chu jumped out and lamented with grief and indignation, “Sir, I want to make a report! I’m wronged…”

Fourth Elder Chu, who was peeping at the door, almost fainted upon hearing this.

This is clearly arranged by you, who can’t see it? Yet you’re still acting so vividly here…

Sha Xinliang looked as if he didn’t recognize Chu Yang. He said in a righteous manner, “Oh? You’re the boss of this medical center? What injustice do you suffer from? Please tell them in detail. I’ve always been impartial as a law-enforcement officer, and I shall defend you!”

Chu Yang said with indignation, “Thank you, sir, I’m a doctor and have been making ends meet with all the little leechcraft that I know. Never did I expect such catastrophe to land on me!”

He cried, “This afternoon, I saw these ten law-enforcement officers patrolling along the street. I’m very grateful to them: To ensure the peacefulness of everyone, they toiled all day long untiringly. It’s really a tiring job… So, to express my gratitude towards them, I invited them in to have some tea… I didn’t know that this disaster came just like this!”

He revealed a horrified expression and said, “Sir… You haven’t seen this personally. These six people rushed in, and the first thing they did was to destroy my shop front, following which, they ruined all my treasured medicines and beat my fourth uncle till he became seriously injured. I’m afraid that his life is in danger now! I pleaded them very hard, but they just couldn’t stop their actions.”

“These law-enforcement officers went forward to block them, but these bastards were so unscrupulous that they didn’t even put them in their eyes, and they kept on proclaiming: Law-enforcement officers are just asses, we should just ignore them!…”

When he said till here, the six people widened their eyes: When did we say it… You’re such a cheater…

Chu Feiyan’s jaw almost dropped… My life is in danger?

“These law-enforcement officers started a fight with these bunch of evil rascals in a bid to protect me. But these rascals were really mad! They injured the law-enforcement officers so badly… If Sirs didn’t come just in time, I’m afraid that these law-enforcement officers would already have… sacrificed themselves in the line of duty…”

Chu Yang said angrily. He had finally finished speaking…

“Sir Sha! This guy is speaking pure nonsense! Don’t believe him!” one of the six people, who were bundled like rice dumplings, said in an aggrieved manner, “There are no such things! Sir, please investigate this, even if he… he invited the law-enforcement officers to come in to have a drink, how could they drink till midnight… and…”

Qin Baoshan yelled. He rolled his sleeves and slapped that person heavily. That person raised his head and squirted out a mouthful of blood, and with a shrill cry, all his teeth fell tinkling on the floor. His face had directly turned flat by such a slap.

Qin Baoshan yelled, “Law-enforcement officers are now investigating this case! All of you, shut up! Whoever opens his mouth again will be beheaded!”

The rest of the people were stunned by Qin Baoshan’s violence. Instantly, they felt this accident would come to no good end.

At this moment, Sha Xinliang turned his head around and said, “Secretary, did you finish recording the case that Big Boss Chu has just reported?”

Chu Yang almost laughed out loud: This guy even brought his secretary along to handle this case. He’s really prepared…

…
