Transcending the Nine Heavens

CHAPTER 44: Little Brother, You Are Truly Open and Honest

This situation was naturally the result of Chu Yang instructing the Sword Spirit to investigate.

Moreover, it was vastly different from what the Sword Spirit had suggested.

In fact, after the Sword Spirit checked on Sha Xinliang, it told Chu Yang: "This Sha Xinliang, although his meridians contain deep mystical energy, shows signs of fundamental weakness. He must have suffered severe injuries to his vital energy, damaging his foundation. Moreover, his heart meridian is somewhat excessively yang, yet his face bears a dark, ominous color, indicating that he has previously been poisoned by the extremes of yin and yang. However, the poison has not been completely expelled from his body... Although it does not pose immediate harm or affect his lifespan, it will inevitably lead to future troubles."

This simple statement transformed into something entirely different when it passed through Chu Yang's lips, leaving Sha Xinliang nearly terrified out of his wits: I... I only have four to five years left to live?

I don’t want to die…!!!

Seeing the two in such a state, Chu Yang let out a sinister smile.

He wasn't so kind as to heal these two. Instead… he currently had no foundation or support at all. In Ping Sha Ridge, he felt somewhat insecure.

Now that heaven had granted him a golden opportunity, binding these two to him would make it far easier to act in the future!

Neither of these individuals was ordinary. One was the head of the Law Enforcement Auction Hall, and the other was the leader of the Law Enforcement Hall…

There were three halls of enforcers in this place, and the other one was the Blood Reward Hall.

By securing these two, Chu Yang was effectively at the peak of power in Ping Sha Ridge.

Thus, from the very beginning, Chu Imperial Seat never thought of letting these two old men off. Damn it, even street thugs look for a government office to act as a shield; how could I, as the eldest young master of the Chu Family, not find something weighty enough?

Looking at Sha Xinliang, Chu Yang coldly laughed and said, “How would I know? I ask you, before you were injured, even if your face was dark, it couldn’t have been this shade of blue-black, right? Find a mirror and see if the dark color between your brows is far darker than the color of your cheeks?”

That was purely nonsense. Generally, as a person ages, does their skin remain as fair and tender as it was in youth? Moreover, Sha Xinliang, as someone who spent every day in the brutal Law Enforcement Hall?

If his skin had become like Little White Face, that would be strange. As for his brows being darker… damn, isn’t everyone here darker than elsewhere?

Of course, if we were in the twenty-first century, we would understand this.

But in the Nine Heavens Continent… where could one find such profound theories?

Sha Xinliang suddenly felt his legs weaken and sat down on the ground, cold sweat pouring from his forehead, his bald head shining brightly in an instant.

Both of them were drenched in cold sweat, stunned like wooden ducks.

Seeing their expressions, Chu Yang made a surprised face: “You two… wouldn’t you have gone to the same… ‘divine doctor’, right?”

The two nodded with sorrowful faces, now wishing they could dismember that 'divine doctor'.

“Really… I’m speechless…” Chu Yang let out a long sigh, “You two are truly unfortunate brothers; you even went to the same quack to harm yourselves…”

I’m also speechless. In the nine calamity space, the Sword Spirit had already been thoroughly impressed by this sword master lord’s ability to deceive. It was incredible! Clearly, he had alleviated some of the symptoms of the Crimson Vein Finger, which, while not a cure, was still a step in the right direction. But in Chu Yang’s mouth, it had turned into a scheme to kill for money, almost leading to death...

As for that Sha Xinliang, he had suffered a deadly injury, damaging his foundation. The fact that someone could save him was already quite remarkable. Moreover, how could such fundamental injuries be repaired? Especially at his age… even less likely…
