Chapter 22 - 22 Meeting Liu Ting again

Lei Chen was pleased by the reaction of General Tie, he knows that he poked the soft spot of this general. He slows down a bit and then stopped, and turnaround and looked at General Tie.

" Is there any problem General?"

His face is beaming with joy facing General Tie. But the flawless anticipation that he thought was shattered as soon as General Tie says his words, it seems this general did not take his bait.

"No... Nothing, just go on." General Tie takes a deep sigh and waves his hand as a sign to let them out.

Lei Chen was stunned by the general reaction and was now cursing this stupid fella but before he left the room he drops a reminder to this buffoon General. " I hope that General Tie won't regret your decision." He flings his robes and continued walking, ( Sigh, it's not my loss fault in the first place.)

When Lei Chen's group is already out, General Tie sneered Lei Chen, "Hmph! Acting mighty? are you even that great than physician Wong Zi?, you're lucky being alive today because you're a physician, if not then I would personally torment to death." murmured by General Tie, he was just carried away earlier when he heard about his condition, every day this was his problem. So when he heard, it will be cured, he acted right away but he remembers that Lei Chen is too young! How could he cure him? for the reason, that boy was able to deduce his condition it's because the boy is a Physician, of course! they do have the skill to detect the human disorder. This also why he keeps on saving his merits point and will ask Wong Zi for help.

Lei Chen was laughing inwardly, he is laughing because of the bad day he encounters (" Damn! Today must be my bad luck, everything is going against my plan. Sigh..") Lei Chen pondered then continued their way to Physician Guild.

**************

The Physician Guild is quite enormous and grandeur due to many families donated some of their resources to gets the favor of Physicians. At the entrance, they were obstructed by the overbearing soldiers. However, when they tried to ask Lei Chen they saw captain Su among with group. They switched their faces into a polite manner, since captain Su is with them it means the identity of this young man is not ordinary.

*********

Lei Chen's group waited in the entrance gate, they are waiting for the authorization of Master Wong Zi to let them in. Suddenly, the soldier with handprint imprinted on his face came out along with an old man with an especial demeanor.

("Wong Zi!!, ") Exclaimed by Captain Su, ("It only means that this young man is important to Master Wong Zi, if not then why he is fetching this young man by himself. Luckily, I did not further offend him.")

" Hahaha, Little Brother Chen thanks for visiting this big brother of yours! I do apologize on behalf of my soldier's attitude " Wong Zi bow to Lei Chen, the people nearby were shocked by this scene. Who is Wong Zi? the greatest Physician, he even bows to a young man.

"Ahh, Brother Zi stops that, they just doing their tasks." Answered by Lei Chen While he is scratching his head.

**********

Captain Su didn't go in because he knew he didn't need to, guiding Lei Chen to the guild is his biggest achievement. He will not have trouble when the time he came here in the future for they know that Lei Chen knows this captain. But before he left he received a reward from Wong Zi, it was a bottle with a translucent pill inside.

("Stabilization Pill!!" ) Exclaimed by Captain Su on his mind when he received the bottle.

"I hope Captain Su will immediately walk straight now." That's the words he heard from Wong Zi when he got the bottle.

"Great Physician Wong Zi can be at ease, I will." Captain Su salutes to Wong Zi by wrapping his right fist by his left palm and he received a nod from Wong Zi's head then Captain Su stare at Lei Chen and wrapped his fist again then he left.

Lei Chen and Wong Zi are watching the joyous captain as he walks away.

"I hope brother Lei Chen can forgive that stupid captain, he is not bad as you think. He forced his energy to breakthrough, his energy is unstable and colliding that gives him pain. This little Thunder Town, pills are a miracle and needs to spend the hefty price to get one. However, for a mere captain in a remote town that's almost impossible, that's why he keeps on extorting money to buy this pill."

***********************

After an hour passed since Lei Chen's group came in, a grandeur carriage stopped at the Physician Guild entrance, unlike before the guard was now more polite than before when they intercept the guests coming in, especially they already know who is on board of that prestige carriage, Liu Clan Patriarch. This is not the first time Patriarch Liu He visited the Physician Guild, before three times a week he visited the guild until last month Great Wong Zi already decipher his illness. Since then they waited for those items to be prepared.

Patriarch Liu He came out from the carriage along with Elder Liu Ting, Liu Huaban, Liu Shengkai who already returned from Heaven Fist Sect, which is his sect before.

***************

A young man was wearing a red robe was now sitting near the pond, that young man is Lei Chen. He is enjoying watching the fish leaping from the water trying to catch some flying insects, this scene made entertaining to him while he enjoyed sipping the hot and aromatic oolong tea.

He was left alone by Wong Zi, because Wong Zi needs to go inside prepare his equipment for the incoming patients. He also asks Lei Chen to watch and can ask him if things are still unknown. He said this to help him hoping that Lei Chen can deduce what was really happening on Liu He body, even he was not sure if those rare herbs would actually able to cure that strange disease.

Lei Chen's mind was immersed in pondering the past and recalling how fortunate he has and obtained this heaven-defying system, he is thinking also what if he did not obtain this heaven grace probably he and his mother would die in a miserable way. However, his senses came back to reality when he heard a cough from someone.

Lei Chen saw a man emitting with a powerful intent which is on King Stage, this intent is like a massive river that will drag you away by its strong current. Alongside with that man is two girls in a Master Stage and an old man in a King Stage as well, these people are members of Liu Clan, Liu He, Liu Shengkai, Liu Huaban, and Liu Ting. Lei Chen got up and face them with his smiling face and try to greet them but a mocking word from Liu Shengkai is was he get before he does.

"Ohh!... What a coincidence!... The Raging Thunder! Hahaha! What a domineering alias but now reduced to a servant in physician guild. The guild took pity on you and give you food to eat yet here you are!! Dozing from your duty." A disdain was showing from her face.

"Huh? pity?, food?, servant?. Miss, I guess there might be some misunderstanding." Lei Chen while scratching the back of his head.

Patriarch He face became grim, he is thinking this young man has belittled the perception of his daughter.

"Kai'er do you know this servant?" Ask by Patriarch He while his heavy aura was now imposing on Lei Chen. Lei Chen can't do something about this moment, he is too weak compared to a King Stage what he only did is to endure this humiliation to him. They have been mistaken him as a servant for he didn't emit any aura of a cultivator, the 'Dead Air' skills effect was too great! even the king stage wasn't able to peek his real cultivation

"Father, it's him! The pitiful boy, four years ago from the sect." Liu Shengkai reply without looking at Lei Chen, to her his existence is an eyesore.

"Ohh! The lost idol" Said Liu He, but still he did not retract the pressuring aura on Lei Chen, instead he added more.

Liu Ting also frowning, he remembers this child in the restaurant. When they tried to walk forward Liu Ting's voice resounded. " Young man, you've got balls, if I have known earlier that you're only a servant! I already killed you by making a ruckus to Liu Clan Restaurant.!" Liu Ting was right, he was hesitant earlier because of the background of this young man before is unknown.

The heavy pressure of energy from Patriarch He that pressing down on Lei Chen becomes much heavier compare from before, The pressure was really great to the point that he already curved his body enduring the pressure like a heavy mountain pressing onto him and avoid kneeling or lay down flat on the ground.

"Uncle is so mean! Humph!" It was Liu Huaban, she felt sorry for Lei Chen, she knows that it's not his fault what happened in the restaurant. Patriarch He flicked his finger and Lei Chen was blown to the pond. "Lucky bastard! Be thankful to my niece for saving your life! I didn't want to see your face anymore! But if I do!... Humph! Trash!" Patriarch Liu flings his robe and continues to go inside, Shengkai and Ting are looking at him with their disgusting face.

Liu Huaban moves over to the pond and tried to help Lei Chen but she was stopped by his uncle Liu He and continued their way, leaving Lei Chen floating in the pond with hatred.

*************

Inside the Guild, they found Wong Zi busy preparing his equipment, "Oh! Patriarch He! Welcome, I'm sorry I'm just busy earlier some important things happened. By the way, I detect an energy fluctuation earlier, what is that?."

It was Liu Ting who answers Wong Zi, "Patriarch He found the culprit who tries to disturb Liu Clan restaurant and it was one of the guild servants." Answer by him in very polite. Wong Zi's face was now frowning, " Is patriarch He is thinking our Physician Guild is incapable of teaching or punishing our servant so he lifts his hand disregard that you are inside the guild?."

Patriarch He quickly defends himself, "Oh.. I do apologize if I offend the guild by my action, I did not want to overstep Physicians Guild rules, Master Wong Zi please forgive us."

"Sigh... I hope Patriarch He that this would be the last time." Warning by Wong Zi, he did not pursue this matter anymore, but if he knows that they are referring to Lei Chen, he will cancel the treatment right away.

Patriarch He thanks Wong Zi again and then took out a wooden box that is made from a spiritual tree that lives over 100 years, inside the box are the rare 3 flowers of hundred years old Peace Lily and three pieces of the hundred-year-old leaf of Sage. These plants have bathed the energy from heaven for ages, you can tell how many years it has been based on the positive energy it gives off. In this world, not only human has the ability to gather energy from heaven, even plants, trees, rocks, animals, and other entities under this world can gather energy for various purposes.
