Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss Volume 3

by North Night (夜北)

  All of them possessed at least a green leveled spirit and none of them dared to face up to those fists.

  But, Jun Wu Xie’s command had been given. There was nowhere to hide, as Drunk Lotus would not allow that to happen!

  Drunk Lotus had turned his eyes on another disciple of the Qing Yun Clan. A chill ran up his spine and he started screaming. “Kill him! Senior Wen! Make your move! NOW!!”

  When that man shouted, the skilled indigo spirit user was feeling conflicted. He had no dealings with the Qing Yun Clan before this. He came here against his wishes as he had needed the help of the top clan throughout the lands. He had received an invitation to join the delegation to come to the Kingdom of Qi and had been forced to accept. Hence, when they had faced the Rui Lin Army soldiers, he had not lifted a finger, and only when they were rushed by the Jun Family’s father and son and the Rui Lin Army had he reluctantly made a move and only released his spirit’s oppressive aura to stop an all out attack from their opponents. He had resisted from making a move against the Lin Palace till the last moment, and it was not because he couldn’t, but because he wouldn’t.

  For anyone to attain the indigo spirit, they were usually people who were extraordinary in their gift and character.

  Having lived close to a century, he had seen and heard much of the world. The righteous reputation of the Jun Family had not escaped his ears either, although their might did not take one’s breath away, their upright and noble integrity had him respect them a lot, and he was extremely reluctant to raise his hand against them.

  If the Qing Yun Clan disciples were able to handle the situation on their own, he would just remain a bystander to their atrocities, but the tide had turned, and faced with the joint assault of the black beast and Drunk Lotus, two of the Qing Yun Clan disciples had been killed in a blink. The other invited expert exponents had had to move in and begin their attack on Drunk Lotus and the black beast, but based on the capabilities displayed by the youth and the beast, the answer was clear how this would end.

  To make a move, or to refrain?

  But, remembering the wounds of a member of his family back home, he sighed in resignation, and turned his eyes on to Jun Wu Xie.

  He could see that the one who had command over the youth and the black beast, was this little girl standing in the distance.

  “Hand over the Soul Jade and this will end here.” He said to Jun Wu Xie.

  Jun Wu Xie snorted coldly at him, and took a step forward: “You dare harm my family, and smear the Jun Family’s name. This will not end that easily. Today, I proclaim the Qing Yun Clan as my enemies. Not only the Qing Yun Clan people in the Kingdom of Qi will die, soon I will show up myself at the doors of the Qing Yun Clan! And none in Qing Yun Clan will live!”

  The indigo spirit user looked in surprise at Jun Wu Xie. He saw her chilly gaze, her determined dominance and could not believe he was seeing all this coming from a little girl! Her proclamation was a mountainous task to undertake, was it even possible!?

  Take down the top clan under the skies? The little girl was being rather arrogant!

  “Ignorant junior, do you know what you are up against?” The indigo spirit user asked gently.

  Jun Wu Xie said coldly: “You should ask that of the Qing Yun Clan. Do they know who they are up against?”

  Jun Wu Xie continued: “I saw that you had not made any moves against us. If you leave now, I’ll spare your life. But those who harmed my Grandfather and Uncle, shall leave their lives here.”

  The indigo spirit user was taken aback. Not even in his dreams, had he expected that he would one day be threatened by a little girl who had just broken through to the orange level.

  While he stood in astonishment, Drunk Lotus had obliterated and mashed up another disciple of the Qing Yun Clan to a pulp of flesh and bones into the ground!

  Volume 3

  Chapter 226: Only for a Gentleman (1)

  That was when the indigo spirit user’s face paled. Three of the Qing Yun Clan disciples had been slaughtered mercilessly before his eyes. The last remaining disciple was struggling under the black beast’s lightning quick attacks. What was more frightening was that the white robed youth had already eyed Eunuch Wei, a blue spirit user. Drunk Lotus was not slowed down even against a blue spirit user, his attacks were as dominating and as tyrannical as when he had fought the green spirit users. Green or blue, it did not matter the slightest to Drunk Lotus!

  Seeing the skills displayed by the youth, and the way he overwhelmed a blue spirit user, he was thinking maybe he himself with his indigo spirit might very well not be a match for him!

  Where in the deepest levels of hell did this overpowered demon crawl out from!?

  The indigo spirit user did not even classify Drunk Lotus as a contractual ring spirit.

  In this world, only the weapons and beast type ring spirits were widely known. Who would have thought the handsome youth could actually belong to the plant based series of ring spirits? Moreover, Drunk Lotus was a plant based ring spirit that had the ability to morph into human form.

  Based on Drunk Lotus’ appearance, he would most probably be about seventeen years….. maybe eighteen. No release of spiritual energy was detected when he attacked, and it was impossible to even guess at the real strength behind that slender attractive figure of a boy.

  Even under assault from several blue spirit users, he was handling the fight with ease. Was he an indigo spirit user as well?

  Impossible!

  Attaining the indigo level in his teens!? None exists!

  “Wen Xin Han! What are you waiting for!? If we are to die, you would not be able to answer to the Qing Yun Clan! Don’t you want to save your granddaughter anymore!?” The several blue spirit users who were being pushed back by a lone Drunk Lotus grew desperate and shouted out to Wen Xin Han, the only indigo spirit user and the strongest among them. Never in their lives had they seen a teenager this powerful who forced five blue spirit users into throwing all their spiritual energies into defence, just to ward off his attacks.

  The only indigo spirit user, Wen Xin Han, among them, still had not made a move.

  “He is Wen Xin Han?” From behind, Jun Xian who had been tending to his wounds was shocked when he heard that name, and he looked wide eyed, at the conflicted expression on the expert blue leveled spirit exponent.

  “Father, you know him?” Jun Qing asked in query.

  Jun Xian frowned: “Yes, I know of him. He is from the Yan Kingdom, and he was widely revered as a prodigy who attained a breakthrough to the level yellow spirit when he was just twenty years old. His father was an official in the Yan Kingdom, but a massacre of his whole family was ordered in secret by the reigning Emperor. His whole family was killed and only he alone managed to escape. He disappeared from the face of the world thereafter, and I did not expect him to be still alive. The Wen Family were fiercely loyal to the crown, and in no way were they inferior to our Jun Family. I had heard much about the Wen Family when I was younger.”

  When he finished relating the story of Wen Xin Han, Jun Xian turned to Jun Wu Xie: “Wu Xie, if possible, do not harm Wen Xin Han. He had not attacked us, and I think his sense of conscience is still sound. I believe in members of the Wen Family, they would never be an accomplice to evildoers.”

  In this battle, Wen Xin Han had not participated in the attacks. If the indigo spirit user had attacked, the Jun Family father and son would have been dead before Jun Wu Xie arrived.

  Jun Wu Xie looked up at her grandfather. She had not been blind to Wen Xin Han’s internal conflict, but it was that it didn’t matter to her. If Wen Xin Han remained as a spectator, she would spare his life. If he continues to be party to the Qing Yun Clan’s evildoing, she would not let him off.

  But Jun Xian had spoken, and she did not want to defy him.

  If Grandfather wants her to stay her hand, she will comply.

  Just when Wen Xin Han was about the jump into the fray, Jun Wu Xie said suddenly: “Senior Wen, since you w
ere forced to dirty your hands only because of a desperate need for the help of the Qing Yun Clan, then allow me to offer you an alternative now.”

  Wen Xin Han held himself back and looked at Jun Wu Xie.

  Jun Wu Xie raised her hand and threw out a bottle of elixirs to Wen Xin Han who caught it deftly.

  “As long as the person you want to save is still alive, this medicine will let him live on. But if you choose to attack today, not only the person you want to save, but even you will die here.” Jun Wu Xie offered with her eyes narrowed.

  Chapter 227: “Only for a Gentleman (2)”

  Wen Xin Han looked at Jun Wu Xie in consternation and stared at the bottle in his hand.

  What is this little girl saying?

  He had seen Drunk Lotus in action, and Wen Xin Han was not completely confident to come out of a fight with him unscathe. He knew exactly what Jun Wu Xie had meant when she had said he will die here, and knew deep in his heart it was not just an empty threat.

  And she had also said….. her elixir would save a life….. was that really the truth?

  They saw that Wen Xin Han had been about to make his move when Jun Wu Xie’s bottle of elixirs had confused him back into inaction. The aggressors turned helpless defenders under the overwhelming assault from Drunk Lotus and the black beast grew desperate.

  “Wen Xin Han! Do not fall under the spell of that witch! Even the Qing Yun Clan Sovereign was not completely confident of treating your grandson, how capable can a little lass like her be? She’s just dragging for time to kill us before she can consolidate her forces to take you on! Do not fall for her scheme!”

  Wen Xin Han stood staring in wonder at Jun Wu Xie. He would not even have given it a thought if he had only considered her age, but something about her when he saw her calm and completely confident eyes clicked in his mind, and he felt a sense of unhurried certainty from her.

  ‘To fight with his life at stake, or leave cradling this last hope in his arms?’

  ‘If he were to die, his grandson would have no way to live either. He knew the callousness of the Qing Yun Clan too well, even if he were to die here in battle today for their cause, they would not waste their time on his grandson whom they had no use for without his grandfather.’

  ‘If that was the case, why should he risk his life?’

  “Your name is Jun Wu Xie?” Wen Xin Han raised his head and looked at Jun Wu Xie.

  “Yes.”

  “I’ll remember you. I will not further involve myself here today. If this elixir really works, Wen Xin Han will henceforth owe you his life. But if you were to deceive me, I will do everything I can to bring down the Jun Family, even at the cost of these old bones.” Wen Xin Han had decided to take a gamble, he was not confident of surviving a battle with Drunk Lotus, and if he died, his grandson would have no chance to live either.

  ‘Accepting Jun Wu Xie suggestion was an alternative, it would be the best scenario if it could save his grandson. If it could not, he would make Jun Wu Xie pay in blood.’

  “I don’t want your life.” Jun Wu Xie rejected coldly, and it answered the unspoken question in Wen Xin Han’s mind.

  Wen Xin Han suddenly roared in laughter, faced with such a confident and arrogant little girl, he couldn’t find it in his heart to dislike her.

  “Fine! If it works, I will make it my duty to protect the Jun Family till the day I die, how’s that?”

  “You think I can’t protect it myself?”

  ‘That arrogance!’

  This was a first for Wen Xin Han. He had never come across a kid as unruly and rebellious as Jun Wu Xie was. If not for the wrong timing and circumstances, he would have liked to see, what this young girl who broke through to attain an orange spirit at such a young age, was capable of.

  “I have caused disturbance today, we’ll meet again” Wen Xin Han did not want to be associated with the Qing Yun Clan any further. If not for his grandson, whose life hung by a thread, he would not have agreed to partake in such acts of tyranny with the highly regarded Qing Yun Clan.

  With those words, Wen Xin Han dispelled his spirit’s oppressive pressure and with a flick of his voluminous sleeves, he soared into the air, leaving the shouts and curses of the blue spirit users far behind.

  “Is he really gone?” Jun Qing had watched the scene play out with incredulity, not understanding how Wen Xin Han had been so easily coaxed to leave with a few words from Jun Wu Xie.

  Jun Wu Xie explained: “Drunk Lotus’ strength was glaringly obvious, and he knew he would not escape unscathed. If he dies, the Qing Yun Clan will not save the person he wants to save. Rather than to work to the bone to do the Qing Yun Clan bidding, why not take a gamble.” It must be said, Jun Wu Xie had clearly read Wen Xin Han heart and mind, and cornered him into make the most logical choice.

  For one who survived the Yan Kingdom’s Emperor’s deadly persecution till today, and managed to breakthrough to attain a rare indigo spirit, Jun Wu Xie had very good reason to believe, Wen Xin Han knew how to choose.

  Volume 3

  Chapter 228: “Only for a Gentleman (3)”

  A Drunk Lotus who was powerful enough to cause consternation to the indigo spirit user, and Jun Wu Xie’s generous offer of a tempting alternative, had naturally made the strongest among the group, who did not like the Qing Yun Clan anyway, choose to leave.

  With both might and strategy, Jun Wu Xie was bringing them down fast.

  With the oppressive pressure lifted, the Rui Lin Army who had been rendered immobile rose back on their feet. They encircled the delegates of the Qing Yun Clan and forced them close into the range of the snapping jaws and mauling claws of the fearsome black beast, and the merciless tyrannical and unseen fists of the maniacal Drunk Lotus.

  Drunk Lotus went on a terrifying rampage as he did not have to watch his back anymore.

  In less than an hour, the four Qing Yun Clan disciples, and the five experts who joined the convoy were dead, pulverized and torn to shreds.

  A glaringly red pool of blood on the ground surrounded Drunk Lotus’ feet, and his white clothes were now red. His exceedingly handsome face did not show any disgust or abhorrence, but it instead shone with the exhilaration of the gruesome massacre he had just executed!

  “YEAHHH!” Drunk Lotus gave out a low roar of exhilaration as he held his blood smeared fists to his chest and clasped them hidden within his voluminous sleeves. With a light leap, his slender form drew a graceful arc and he landed right in front of Jun Wu Xie.

  “Miss, all dead.” Drunk Lotus beamed at her.

  Jun Wu Xie nodded slightly. The threat against the Lin Palace had been diffused, but it was far from over. Jun Wu Xie had the injured soldiers carried in to be tended to. As long as they were still breathing, she was confident of saving them.

  Jun Xian and Jun Qing’s injuries had not been serious, but Long Qi, who had three ribs broken, and sustained various wounds, had gritted his teeth and had been silent throughout the ordeal.

  She then ordered for medicine to stabilize the condition of the wounded to be distributed but did not go back into the Lin Palace herself. She stood at the gates, staring at the bodies of the men of the Qing Yun Clan, her eyes chill as ever.

  “Little darling, what’s on your mind?” Jun Wu Yao who had been absent all this while suddenly stood beside Jun Wu Xie.

  “You were the one who released Drunk Lotus?” Jun Wu Xie asked.

  Jun Wu Xie smiled and surveyed the piles of ‘ground meat’ littered across the ground, and his smile widened. “Have you not always wanted to know how strong Drunk Lotus is?” Hence, he had given Drunk Lotus the opportunity.

  It seemed, Drunk Lotus’ methods of slaughter, were just right up his alley.

  “I am going to the Imperial Palace.” Jun Wu Xie said.

  The smile on Jun Wu Yao’s face stiffened.

  “That was not all the people from the Qing Yun Clan. Without getting their hands on the Soul Jade, they will not give up. I expect t
he rest of them, to have confronted Mo Qian Yuan.” Jun Wu Xie reasoned as she narrowed her eyes. From what she gathered from Long Qi, the Qing Yun Clan had attacked yesterday. It would seem that Mo Qian Yuan had fallen into the hands of the Qing Yun Clan for a day now.

  What would the naive little Emperor have learnt of the ways of the Qing Yun Clan?

  “You want to save him?” Jun Wu Yao raised an eyebrow.

  “Yes.”

  Jun Wu Yao’s smile faded…..

  “I’ll go with you.” A damsel rescuing a distressed dog, what a thankless task.

  Jun Wu Xie nodded and issued her orders to the black beast and Drunk Lotus to proceed to the Imperial Palace. When she was done, she was carried up by Jun Wu Yao within his arms and they soared towards the Imperial Palace.

  In front of the Lin Palace, the black beast looked in distress at the blood covered Drunk Lotus and the corner of its jaws twitched.

  Drunk Lotus looked at the black beast with one eyebrow raised and jumped right onto its back and grabbed a handful of its flesh and fur in his hand. He then laughed coldly: “Dumb kitty! Take me there! Move!”

  “……….” The black beast almost teared, feeling so sorry for itself.

  Its mistress must never abandon it to this extreme and maniacal flower again!

  Volume 3

  Chapter 229:”Torture (1)”

  The acrid smell of blood permeated the air in the Imperial Palace’s main hall. Qin Yu Yan sat upright upon the throne which was symbolic to the Emperor. Her beautiful and graceful face had her usual gentle smile on, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

  Below the throne in the hall, a group of Qing Yun Clan disciples led by Jiang Chen Qing sat around, their mouths sneering, as they all looked at the curled up figure of a man, lying upon the floor, in the middle of the hall.
