CHAPTER 94: Unexpected Developments
“Moreover!” Chu Yang asserted, “There is actually too much!”
The chief enforcer said calmly, “Continue.”
Chu Yang chuckled, “Then let me mention one more thing. The chief enforcer’s complexion is somewhat dark, appearing to be a normal skin tone. However, may I ask, chief enforcer, decades ago, wasn’t your complexion different?”
The chief enforcer looked at Chu Yang with sharp eyes, remaining silent.
“Generally speaking, during the cultivation process, a martial artist undergoes several rounds of marrow cleansing. After reaching the saint level, one can essentially maintain a youthful appearance because all the impurities in the body are gone, forming a connection between heaven and earth. If willing, one can maintain the appearance of someone in their thirties or forties until the last moment of life.”
“After the saint level, the supreme transformation of the body can even reverse aging,” Chu Yang smiled slightly. “Of course, by that time, it’s entirely up to personal will. Furthermore, those above saint level typically have little concern for their appearance.”
“However, the complexion of the chief enforcer is definitely not normal. It should have become fair after the marrow cleansing at the saint level, but due to some kind of injury, it has turned dark.”
Chu Yang spoke confidently, “This kind of injury, although only manifested as a dark complexion, must indicate that there are obstructions in the chief enforcer’s meridians!”
The chief enforcer remained expressionless, his gaze steady, just staring at him.
Yet, the killing intent in the air had completely dissipated, replaced by an ongoing sense of oppression.
Chu Yang breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he had finally passed the first test, but the second one would truly verify his real capabilities.
Indeed, the chief enforcer said gravely, “You indeed have some skills. Judging by your insight, although saying it’s unparalleled in the Nine Heavens might be an exaggeration, it is enough to classify you as a divine doctor. However, this is still not sufficient!”
“I understand that for today’s chief enforcer, this is still not enough. But for me, being able to stand in the Nine Heavens, or say, to make a living in Ping Sha Ridge or even the entire southeast, is already sufficient,” Chu Yang replied with a faint smile.
The chief enforcer closed his eyes for a moment and said, “But it’s still not enough.”
Chu Yang smiled elegantly and said, “Since it’s not enough, then may I ask the chief enforcer to extend your hand so I can take your pulse?”
The chief enforcer looked at him for a while and then said gravely, “Do you understand the consequences of taking a pulse?”
Chu Yang responded defiantly, “If the chief enforcer wasn’t trying to put a big hat on me to kill me the moment I arrived, then I really wouldn’t be interested in taking your pulse.”
The chief enforcer narrowed his eyes, “Oh?”
Chu Yang smiled lightly, “The enforcers certainly dominate the Nine Heavens and handle all injustices in the world! However... I have a skill to protect myself, which allows me to thrive everywhere! It has nothing to do with me.”
He chuckled, “However, I cannot bear the title of sowing discord amongst the enforcers, so I can only force my way through. Let’s clarify this title first. As for the truth, I do not dare to speak carelessly.”
A slight smile appeared in the chief enforcer’s eyes, “Oh? What do you mean?”
Chu Yang stated directly, “As long as my medical skills are recognized... then, whether there are internal conflicts among you enforcers or not, even if all of you were to die, what does it have to do with me?!”
Upon hearing such a harsh statement, the chief enforcer was startled and then burst into laughter.
This sudden laughter shocked Sha Xinliang and Qin Baoshan, who were worried about Chu Yang, almost raising their hair in alarm!
The chief enforcer leisurely stepped forward and said to Chu Yang, “Follow me.”
