Peerless Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 750 - 752: Don’t Let Someone Die Laughing in the Streets
Chapter 750 -752: Don’t Let Someone Die Laughing in the Streets
“To the death, with you?”
Chen Yingke couldn’t help but size up Xia Liu from head to toe once again.
This guy, aside from being somewhat good-looking, had slender arms and legs, and skin even fairer than hers.
And this pretty boy had vowed to fight the Liu family to the death?
My God!
Chen Yingke’s worldview collapsed in an instant.
“Indeed, I am ashamed,” Xia Liu said with a polite smile, realizing he was doubted everywhere he went.
“Oh no, you are truly impressive, I greatly admire you,” she said.
With that, Chen Yingke pretentiously bowed with her hands clasped.
“Yingying, Daoist Fellow Xia is really impressive, you must not view him with the eyes of an ordinary martial artist,” chided Chen Tian’en.
“I know, Grandpa, didn’t you see how my admiration for him has soared beyond the Nine Heavens?” she responded.
“Ah, you just came back, and Daoist Fellow Xia is unfamiliar with our family, why don’t you show him around?”
As he sensed no anger from Xia Liu towards his granddaughter, he thought it better to let them get to know each other.
In front of her grandfather like this, he feared he might lose his temper and start lecturing.
“This…”
“Oh yes! Senior Xia, I’d love to show you around,” Chen Yingke eagerly grabbed Xia Liu’s hand, grasped the longsword by the table, and headed downstairs.
Xia Liu was dumbfounded, the pace was too quick, and he hadn’t caught up yet.
He had come to learn more from Chen Tian’en but ended up being interrupted by a young girl.
Well, seeing Chen Yingke’s enthusiasm, Xia Liu knew he had no choice but to go.
Surprisingly, as they left the attic and turned the corner, Chen Yingke suddenly spun him around fiercely, “Speak up, little swindler, how did you fool my grandfather?”
Chen Yingke crossed her arms, her longsword aligned next to her fresh face.
If Xia Liu dared make any improper move, the azure longsword would be unsheathed at once.
“Why do you think I’ve fooled your grandfather?” Xia Liu asked with a slight frown.
“Because you’re about the same age as me, and to become the Chief of the Heavenly Mansion without Path-Entering Cultivation or higher, the only result is a dead-end,” she stated.
As the daughter of the Chen family, Chen Yingke knew perfectly well what the position of Heavenly Mansion Chief represented.
Xia Liu must have used some means to convince her grandfather to step aside.
Her thoughts were similar to Chen Yan’s earlier—both were concerned that after Chen Tian’en announced his retirement, opportunists would take advantage of the situation.
“Oh, no need to worry, I just advanced to Path-Entering Cultivation recently.”
“You? Path-Entering Cultivation? Don’t make people die laughing on the streets,” Chen Yingke glared with wide eyes, barely holding back her laughter.
“Greetings, Senior Xia!”
“Greetings, Senior Xia!”
…
Just then, several passing Earth-Rank Warriors spotted Xia Liu and promptly greeted him loudly.
“Hey, aren’t these our household’s elder brothers? Why do you call him Senior?” Chen Yingke was almost stunned.
These men, all between forty and fifty years old with cultivation reaching the peak of Earth-Rank.
And yet, they addressed a man about her age as Senior, something she couldn’t comprehend.
“Yingying, did you just return today?” one of the Earth-Rank Warriors asked.
“Yes.”
“Then you might not know, Senior Xia’s cultivation is extraordinary, and he’ll be the Chief of the Heavenly Mansion in a few days.”
“Hehe, speaking of which, I also want to extend my early congratulations to Senior Xia.”
“Yes, congratulations, Senior Xia.”
…
As they chatted, they began to express their congratulations earnestly.
“Hehe, don’t be like that. Although I will definitely pass the assessment, it shouldn’t be flaunted,” Xia Liu said laughingly.
“Right! Senior Xia is correct; we were being careless.”
“Senior Xia is busy and we are going to practice.”
After seeing Xia Liu wave his hand, the group quickly left.
From the start to the end, Chen Yingke had been utterly confused.
Had her elder brothers also been deceived by this little rascal?
“Hey, do you know magic? How did my family end up like this?”
“That shouldn’t be the case,” Xia Liu replied uncertainly.
Spirit Art probably isn’t considered magic.
“I suspect you are a Gu Master from a foreign land!” Chen Yingke stepped back a few steps, her delicate hand on the hilt of her sword, ready to draw it and strike at Xia Liu’s head if anything seemed amiss.
“Haha, you are saying all this, do whatever you want; I think I’ll just go back to sleep.”

Long after his laughter had faded, Chen Yingke reacted, “Still trying to feign ignorance, huh? Wait, I will definitely unveil your true face!”
After making her solemn promise, she quietly followed Xia Liu.
Originally, Xia Liu planned to turn a corner and head to Chen Tian’en’s attic, but through his Divine Sense, he saw Chen Yingke was closely following him.
This was rather troublesome; he should probably release some energy to deter her.
However, after thinking it over, Xia Liu decided against it; it had been a long while since he had interacted with a young girl, so he let her follow.
After a few minutes of walking, Xia Liu returned to the seaside villa.
As he was entering the door, a figure swiftly approached from a distance, probably using some type of movement technique.
“You little swindler! How did you enter my house?”
Chen Yingke was nearly exploding with rage. Not only did Xia Liu manage to not reveal anything, but he also had the audacity to enter her home, utterly disregarding her presence.
Did he really think he had bewitched all the warriors of the Chen family?
“Your house?” Xia Liu’s mind raced.
No wonder he had observed traces of a girl living in the villa’s rooms through his Divine Sense.
It turned out to be Chen Yingke’s residence.
This was troublesome.
“Yes! My nest! What exactly have you done to my Chen family?” Chen Yingke’s longsword was already unsheathed, its blade pointed directly at Xia Liu.
“Don’t misunderstand, I haven’t done anything bad, and everything I said was true,” Xia Liu explained with a bitter face.
He wasn’t afraid of the longsword but was worried that taking action might harm this girl’s cultivation spirit.
“Yingying! What are you doing?”
As Xia Liu felt troubled, a stern voice came from the entrance of the villa.
“Father, this swindler, I don’t know where he came from, and he wanted to enter my room!”
Seeing that it was her father, Chen Yingke quickly responded, unsure of Xia Liu’s cultivation level.
Being able to remain composed in front of her grandfather, who was of Path-Entering Cultivation, Xia Liu was likely above Earth Rank.
With her father here, his scheme should be exposed!
“Why didn’t you notify me in advance of your return? The house has been lent to Senior Xia for rest these past few days; go and stay with your mother for a few nights.”
After giving his instructions, Chen Yan lowered his voice to Xia Liu, “Senior Xia, this is my youngest daughter, just returned from her sect, she has been quite improper, I apologize on her behalf.”
Click…
Chen Yingke was completely frozen.
Even her own wise father was treating Xia Liu with such an attitude…
