Supreme Divine Physician in the City

Chapter 1773 - 1774: Here to Kill

The heated atmosphere didn’t last long."Cough cough!"

Someone picked up the microphone, coughed twice, and spoke with a deep, resonant voice.

The crowd turned their heads upon hearing it, and it was Liu Qiankun.

Today, Liu Qiankun was sporting slicked-back hair and wearing a luxurious robe, looking spirited and eye-catching, as if there was some great celebration that had him dressed up.

Seeing him like this, the prestigious crowd felt even more secure and ecstatic, convinced that if Ye Xuan dared to come tonight, he wouldn’t leave.

The atmosphere gradually quieted down.

Standing on stage, Liu Qiankun, who seemed to have jumped back in age by ten years, finally spoke with a smile: "Thanks to everyone’s favor, tonight at the banquet I’m hosting for Elder Luo, everyone, please eat and drink well. If the hospitality is lacking, I hope for your understanding!"

Countless voices of flattery and sycophancy rose in response.

Liu Qiankun gestured with his hand for everyone to calm down, and then ’coincidentally’, fixed his gaze on Li Xiyuan.

While he spoke, almost everyone applauded, except for Li Xiyuan, who remained indifferent.

Liu Qiankun squinted and laughed as he said, "Miss Li, everyone knows you don’t care for banquets, but you’re here at my small event today; I’m truly honored."

Li Xiyuan was expressionless: "Mr. Liu is now at the peak of success, unmatched in the world. How dare the humble Li Family not come?"

"I’m just an ordinary man, Miss Li, don’t flatter me." Liu Qiankun smiled, suddenly pointing: "Is Elder Li well?"

Li Xiyuan furrowed her brows slightly.

Liu Qiankun’s seemingly ordinary words instantly shifted the atmosphere from warm to icy cold.

The Li Family and the Liu Family have always been at odds.

Was Liu Qiankun genuinely concerned with his feigned inquiries?

No, he was threatening.

He was telling Li Xiyuan and everyone else that if Ye Xuan dared to come tonight and died here, the Li Family, which has been openly and covertly contending with him, would be the first force he’d clean out.

To catch the thief, first seize the king. At that time, the first target Liu Qiankun would move against would be the Li elder, as immovable as Mount Tai!

Li Xiyuan curved her lips, her gaze coldly fixed on Liu Qiankun: "My grandfather is in good health, no need to trouble Mr. Liu. But Mr. Liu, busy as he is today, should take care of his own health."

Liu Qiankun’s smile froze, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

Others who heard Li Xiyuan’s words were stunned as well.

Was Li Xiyuan kicked by a mule? Was she sarcastically mocking Liu Qiankun? Did she really think that the Li Family, standing on the same line as Ye Xuan, still has a future?

Laughable, naive!

"Humph!"

Liu Qiankun snorted lightly, directly ignored Li Xiyuan, calmed himself silently, and then continued: "The time is nearly up, next, let’s invite..."

Before he finished speaking.

Bang!

A deafening explosion sounded as if it could shake the entire world.

The crowd was startled, quickly turning their eyes to see that the tightly closed hotel lobby doors were smashed open by brute force.

Steel-crafted solid doors turned into rubble!

What kind of power was this?

This must be a bomb explosion?

Dust filled the air.

As everyone slowly recovered, they saw a man and a woman walking through the ruins of the door.

Along with them came a man’s casual and indifferent laughter: "Today is quite lively, all the hundred prestigious families in Yanzi City should be here, right?"

From the dust, the two emerged, their appearances fully revealed to everyone.

The woman was seductive and stunning, able to ruin a nation.

The man was ordinary yet exuded a mysterious arrogance, his slight smile domineering and indifferent to all.

It seemed that everyone present tonight was mere trash in his eyes.

Ye Xuan had arrived.

Anticipated yet unexpected.

He actually dared to come!

Uninvited!

Instantly, the atmosphere in the hotel lobby turned stiff and tense.

Numerous gazes focused on Ye Xuan, each with their own light, but mostly they were filled with hostility and ridicule.

How could there really be someone who enjoys courting death in this world?

A moment later.

A middle-aged man stood up, glaring at Ye Xuan and shouted: "Ye Xuan, you have a lot of nerve. Today is a banquet hosted by the Liu Family for Elder Luo, and not only did you come uninvited, you even kicked the door to enter. You’re... you’re looking for death!"

"Indeed, your behavior is utterly disgraceful!"

"What a scandal! What a scandal!"

"..."

Instantly, countless curses erupted.

The leading middle-aged man was Zheng Jing, Family Head of the Zheng Family in Yanzi City.

In recent years, the Zheng Family hasn’t been doing well, but recently managed to cozy up to the Liu Family, and has seen significant improvements in various aspects. If there were a contest for the best sycophant of the Liu Family among the hundred families in Yanzi City, the Zheng Family would easily claim the trophy.

So, almost without Liu Qiankun needing to speak, the crowd stirred with noise.

Ye Xuan became the target of the entire scene.

Yet he was long used to it.

No matter how much people cursed, Ye Xuan’s smile remained unaffected, though his dark eyes gradually filled with a chilling aura.

Suddenly.

Ye Xuan’s figure disappeared.

When he reappeared, he was right in front of Zheng Jing.

Zheng Jing was immediately stunned; from a distance, it was bearable, but now that Ye Xuan was in his face, even he couldn’t handle it.

The young man’s presence was as oppressive as Mount Tai, making it hard to breathe.

Zheng Jing twisted his lips, forced himself to glare at Ye Xuan, and said: "What do you want? This is Elder Luo’s banquet, you intend to..."

Zheng Jing didn’t get to finish his sentence, for he lost forever the ability to speak again.

Because he was already dead.

Silently, beyond comprehension.

No one saw what Ye Xuan did to him, but everyone saw that halfway through Zheng Jing’s sentence, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his entire body stiffened.

Then...

Bang!

Zheng Jing crashed to the ground, lifeless.

"Hiss!!"

All the curses stopped abruptly, replaced by the sound of sharp intakes of breath and gazes full of terror.

Horror!!

Zheng Jing barely said two sentences, and suddenly he was dead!

This Ye Xuan was here tonight with murder intent!!

Clearly, no one expected Ye Xuan to be so arrogant and brazen tonight, staring at Zheng Jing’s rapidly cooling corpse, but unable to regain their senses.

In the extreme silence, Ye Xuan’s cold voice sounded faintly.

"Today’s matter is strictly between me and the Liu Family, irrelevant to others. If others wish to speak, I don’t mind staining my hands with more blood."

These indifferent words, like a thunderclap on a clear day, deeply shook every heart present.
