Chapter 180 The Tough Son-in-law (2/2)

Bai Sheng recalled but shook his head. “I haven’t heard of Chen Pingdao,” he said. But I think as long as there is a destiny, I and Chen Pingdao will meet anyway. Your elixir is very good, and I will take it, but you cannot take away my beloved daughter with just one elixir.”

“I know it’s not enough. There are a few more in here, all for you,” Ning Tao said, before suddenly flinging the tiny porcelain bottle at Bai Sheng.

Bai Sheng was surprised and reached for the bottle. However, just as he opened his hand, Ning Tao’s hand suddenly reached out and snatched the Ancestor-seeking Elixir from the palm of his hand.

Bai Sheng grabbed the bottle, but lost the incomplete Ancestor-seeking Elixir. With his talent and strength, Ning Tao couldn’t take it out of his hands if he tried to rob it directly. But Ning Tao distracted him first and suddenly grabbed it, which was another matter. Unguarded, he was not as fast as Ning Tao, who had practiced the Cat Claw Punch.

“Don’t you dare!” Bai Sheng’s eyes instantly became a pale green, full of strong demon aura and murderous intent!

Bai Jing, recovering herself, snapped back, “Ning Tao, what are you doing?”

Ning Tao looked fearlessly, “Don’t I dare? There is nothing in the world that I dare not do. This Ancestor-seeking Elixir is mine, and I gave it to you because you raised Qing Zhui, but if you think of her as your cash cow and me as your cash machine, you’re wrong. I won’t be held hostage by anyone. I can give you this Ancestor-seeking Elixir, but I have to take Qing Zhui. I have nothing else to give you.”

Bai Sheng took a look at Bai Jing with a flash of cold light in his pale green eyes.

Ning Tao sneered, “If you think you can take something out of my hand, you can try. But once you do, that little bond between us will be gone. We will be enemies from now on.”

Try?

Or not?

The ball was in Bai Sheng’s court.

Whether to run or not, it depended on Ning Tao. In the small medicine chest he had opened, the common prescription pads with the many blood locks lay in the most prominent place in the medicine chest. If he tried to escape, no one could catch him.

Ning Tao’s confidence made Bai Sheng hesitate. There was no turning back. If he wasn’t absolutely sure he could take Ning Tao down, he might even lose the incomplete Ancestor-seeking Elixir, and would make enemies of Ning Tao. Cultivating doctors were rare and must be well connected. When he was the enemy of a cultivating doctor, if he could not kill him, it was a constant source of further troubles!

The atmosphere in the room was suddenly tense.

“Ha-ha!” Bai Sheng suddenly laughed. “Doctor Ning, I should be your father-in-law. What you said is offensive. How embarrassed have you made me?”

Ning Tao said, “That’s rough, but it makes sense. Some things are better said.”

He was going to say, “You’re not my father-in-law,” but he refrained from saying it. Qing Zhui was still stuck here, so it was not time to turn on him. He had to convince Bai Sheng that he could still benefit from his “son-in-law”. So he could take Qing Zhui.

“You’re right. Okay, you give me that pill and you can take Qing Zhui away,” Bai Sheng said.

Ning Tao then tossed the incomplete Ancestor-seeking Elixir to Bai Sheng.

Bai Sheng grabbed it and immediately slipped it into the porcelain bottle, as if worried that Ning Tao would snatch it from his hand again. After he had just licked it, he knew exactly how powerful it was and what good it did him. In his mind, Ning Tao’s “betrothal gift” was definitely a great gift, but he was too greedy and wanted to get more benefits from Ning Tao.

Bai Jing deliberately showed an unhappy expression and asked, “Ning Tao, look at you, you have gone too far. You upset my adoptive father.”

From Ning Tao’s point of view, Bai Sheng was very happy, but he calmly said, “Now that Senior Bai has agreed, I will take Qing Zhui away.”

“How could you come to Qing Zhui’s house for the first time and leave without a meal? Have a meal before you go. If you don’t trust me, you go to see Qing Zhui first.”

Ning Tao hesitated and said, “Okay, I’ll go find Qing Zhui first. You talk.”

Then Bai Sheng and Bai Jing watched Ning Tao leave.

When he heard Ning Tao coming down the stairs, Bai Sheng said aloud, “I can’t see through him. That’s interesting.”

Bai Jing looked at the closed window with a worried look on her face and said, “Adoptive father, Qing Zhui will be mad at us because of the way we using her.”

“Mad at us? Once she joined me, she’ll be mine for life. She will do whatever I want her to do, whether she likes it or not. If she dares to defy my will, you should know very well what will happen.” Bai Sheng’s voice was icy.

Bai Jing’s body quivered slightly and she lowered her head, not daring to look into Bai Sheng’s eyes.

Bai Sheng’s tone became soft again. “Bai Jing, you are my favorite and dearest daughter. You know what I want. Be nice to Xin Zhiyu. Get him quickly. I want not only the Xin family’s Grand Dream Company, but also the elixir prescription of the Ancestor-seeking Elixir. As for Chen Pingdao, I’ll try to track him down.”

“Yes,” Bai Jing replied obediently, and backed away.

A sneer came out of Bai Sheng’s mouth, and a low voice whispered, “You think you’re Qing Zhui’s demon master? Don’t dream. Once she joined me, she is mine forever. You can take Qing Zhui. I want you to take her. Not only that, you’ll be mine. Your clinic will become mine, and you can’t escape me!”

Only he could hear his voice.
