Chapter 905: I’m Not A Man If I Don’t Avenge This Enmity!
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Tang Xiu acted irresponsibly and directly set off with Xue Yu after treating Luo Yu. The only thing he left was a prescription with a few simple explanations.
Inside the spacious hall, Li Qiang wanted to cry yet no tears came out. It never occurred to him that today’s encounter would lead to bizarre and strange events that eventually ended up with his wife getting surgery. The series of sudden changes caught him by surprise and, for a time, he didn’t know what to do to cope with the aftermath.
‘Should I call the cops, or call the ambulance?’
The thoughts kept swirling in his mind, but Li Qiang couldn’t make up his mind at all. He didn’t dare to rashly do anything against Tang Xiu’s words either. It would be very troublesome if his wife’s life fell into danger if he were to pull out those silver needles.
‘What should I do?’
Without him realizing, he took out a cigarette before he recalled that his wife would be exposed to the second-hand smoke. Then he threw the cigarette down with a vexed expression.
‘It’s all my fault for not having power nor ability. If I were to be just like those from the Liu Family who possess such power, this fucking Tang punk couldn’t have easily… Huh? The Liu Family’s people…”
He seemed to recall something and quickly grabbed his smartphone and took out a business card. He dialed the numbers on it, quickly contacting the owner of the Green Lake Agricola, Song Donglai. From him, he smoothly obtained the cell number of the Liu Family’s Patriarch, Liu Pinxin. Of course, he could get the number smoothly because Tang Xiu made Song Donglai think that he was Tang Xiu’s man.
“Hello, may I know who I am speaking with?”
After his call got picked up, Liu Pinxin’s voice came out from the phone. This man seemed to have not been resting given the tone of his voice.
Li Qiang took the handset and cautiously said, “Hello, Patriarch Liu. My name is Li Qiang who dined with Tang Xiu in the Green Lake Agricola tonight. Did I… not disturb your rest?”
“You are… Mr. Li?” asked Liu Pin from through the phone. He sounded surprised.
“That’s right, that’s me,” replied Li Qiang quickly. “I really apologize for disturbing you so late, but I have something I need to ask you, so…”
“Hahaha… Brother Li! Please say it freely. I won’t hide anything from you as long as I know the answer,” Liu Pinxin’s hearty laughter came out of the phone.
…B—brother Li?
Li Qiang couldn’t help but shiver inwardly. Given Liu Pinxin’s identity, wealth, power, and influence, his existence was probably nothing but an ant in this man’s eyes. Never once did it occur to him that such a famous bigshot would address him as ‘Brother Li’ one day.
‘This should be because of Tang Xiu, shouldn’t it?’
A complicated expression filled Li Qiang’s eyes. Then he asked again, “Patriarch Liu, I don’t understand something here. Why did you give such respect towards Tang Xiu tonight? It wasn’t only you, but even your mother seems to attach great importance to him. Even if he is the owner of the Magnificent Tang Corporation, I think your family is comparable to his Tang Family. Even if he’s indeed an expert in Chinese medicine, he can’t be as good as the experts and professors in the big hospitals, can he?”
Liu Pinxin fell into silence for several seconds before he slowly asked, “Are you not very familiar with Divine Doctor Tang yourself?”
Li Qiang’s heart thumped and his eyes gleamed with intelligence as he said, “I’m really not familiar with him. The reason why we got acquainted today was due to a very special reason. However, he wants me to work for him in the future. He said that he wants to train me into his confidant, so I want to ask you about him more.”
Liu Pinxin’s shocked voice came, “Divine Doctor Tang wants to train you to be his confidant?”
“That’s right,” replied Li Qiang with a dry smile.
The reply brought intense envy in Liu Pinxin’s voice as he sighed, “Brother Li, I didn’t expect you to have such good luck and be able to make Divine Doctor Tang favor you. If I were in your shoes, I’d take his offer to work for him even if I must resign from my position as the Liu Family’s Head. I can answer your question, but you must not forget me after you’ve grown with him, Brother Li.”
LI Qiang was frightened by his reply. It took him a long time to reply, stutteringly and with hesitation, “No… no problem. I won’t forget you if I really get riches and honor by working under him.”
Liu Pinxin was very happy with the reply. He cleared his throat and said, “Since Divine Doctor Tang wants to train you as his close confidant, it means that you have something extraordinary in you, Brother Li. Nevertheless, I believe you’ll also find out his true identity sooner or later, so I’ll tell you about it in advance. It’s under one condition, however. You must never disclose it to anyone else.”
“Please tell me. I’ll never disclose it to another soul,” replied Li Qiang quickly.
“Divine Doctor has another title—Grandmaster Tang,” said Liu Pinxin. “He’s a Daoist cultivator who has mysterious powers. Someone who possesses a very formidable strength and extraordinary power. I’m afraid that we, ordinary people, are probably nothing but ants in his eyes.”
“What’s Daoist cultivator? Is it the likes of Daoist Priests in Taoist monasteries?” asked Li Qiang, confused.
Liu Pinxin’s tone sounded forced as he replied, “How can the Daoist priests in the ordinary Taoist school compare with Grandmaster Tang? He’s a true Daoist cultivator, a great figure who pursues strength on the path of cultivation. From the perspective of mortals like us, he’s practically a living celestial immortal. That’s right, you also know there are a lot of Xianxia novels on the internet too. Search and read about it. He can be said to be such an existence.”
