Medical and Martial God-Chapter 227: The Plan of Paraquat

"I’ll go first!" Kuroki Suzu declared, taking the lead.

Aside from the Eight Great National Protector War Gods, she was the only one who was unafraid. After all, she was Huang Quan’s lackey—no, his little sister!

"Let’s go too!" Qing Luan said.

"Alright!" The Eight Great National Protector War Gods also rushed toward Ye Xiu.

Seeing this, the other War Gods finally relaxed and swarmed in, all of them bursting with excitement. At this moment, not only did they want to battle Huang Quan, but they even thought that with 2,980 War Gods joining forces, they might actually be able to defeat him.

Haha! This was so thrilling!

Driven by this thought, and coupled with the desire to rank higher on the War God Ranking, everyone attacked with their full strength.

The tens of thousands of Martial Artists in the stands were also incredibly excited and agitated. They were all Eighth Grade Grandmasters and Great Grandmasters. They hadn’t just gone to Sang Jing and then followed everyone to Jin Ye City to simply watch the show. To advance to the rank of War God, one must create their own Martial Arts. Witnessing the ranking battle of 2,980 War Gods was equivalent to reviewing all of their Martial Arts and Ultimate Moves, which would be incredibly helpful for creating their own. This was also why, despite facing tests and fines, no one had left.

Unnoticed by anyone, two girls wearing baseball caps and masks slyly sneaked into the soccer stadium and found a corner seat in the stands.

It was none other than Qin Qing and Chloe.

"So he’s this powerful!" Qin Qing exclaimed in amazement, watching the scene on the field where Ye Xiu, one man with his saber, fought against 2,980 War Gods.

"This is nothing. The quality of this batch of War Gods is far inferior to those on the previous War God Ranking. The power the Young Master displayed when he swept the list was much more spectacular than this," Chloe whispered.

"You’ve seen it?" Qin Qing asked.

"No, but I have seen the Young Master go on a killing spree many times," Chloe said.

Qin Qing felt a pang of jealousy. She suddenly found herself thinking that if she had been smuggled out of the country with Ye Xiu ten years ago, she could have personally witnessed his rise to power and taken part in his every battle. Then again, she reconsidered, if she had accompanied him abroad, his journey would likely have been even more difficult, as he would have had to divert his focus to protect her.

"You two can leave the field now!"

Ye Xiu repelled two War Gods, who then obediently exited the field.

This battle was to assess the strength of each War God, not a fight to the death. Once Ye Xiu had confirmed a War God’s strength, he would have them leave the field.

An average of five people left every minute. Even so, the battle would take at least ten hours to complete.

「In the Kill Ye Xiu Fund group chat」

The group had been silent for a long time.

"Gentlemen, I have some good news. Do you want to hear it?" Su Mo asked.

Ma Renyi: "If Divine Doctor Su says it’s good news, it must be. I’m all ears."

Gao Hongquan: "Ever since Ye Xiu returned to the country, it’s been one piece of bad news after another, with not a single bit of good news. Divine Doctor Su, please share something to cheer us up."

Fei Yihong: "Divine Doctor Su, stop keeping us in suspense. Just tell us."

A host of replies flooded the group, but the general mood was grim.

Seeing the time was right, Su Mo said, "Ye Xiu is dead."

"Really?"

"How did he die?"

"This is no joking matter, Divine Doctor Su. Is it true?"

"Who was powerful enough to kill Ye Xiu?"

"Oh, heavens above and earth below, which kind soul finally avenged us?"

No one believed Su Mo’s words.

"I don’t have definite confirmation yet," Su Mo said. "But I estimate there’s an eighty to ninety percent chance he’s dead."

The group instantly cooled down.

Ma Renyi: "Divine Doctor Su, what do you mean by that?"

Su Mo: "What you all don’t know is that Yagyu Uemon, one of the nine serpent heads of the Tiansha Association, contacted me. He’s willing to join forces to eliminate Ye Xiu and acted as the go-between for me to get in touch with the Luopo Sect. Last night, I sent my disciple, Li Hongchou, to Jin Ye City to meet with people from the Luopo Sect. This morning, Li Hongchou called me. He and two War Gods from the Luopo Sect had gone to Ye Xiu’s home..."

In reality, Yagyu Uemon had only contacted Su Mo, giving him one billion in gold and asking him to contact everyone who had framed Ye Xiu ten years ago. Su Mo, wanting to embezzle the entire sum, told no one and contacted the Luopo Sect himself.

"Two War Gods? Haha, then Ye Xiu is definitely dead."

"Ye Xiu is just a Great Grandmaster. Forget two War Gods; even one could crush him with ease."

"With Ye Xiu dead, we can finally live our good lives again."

The chat erupted. It was as lively as a New Year’s celebration.

Ma Renyi: "This is truly wonderful news! We must celebrate. Here’s the plan: everyone come to Qingfeng Road. It’s my treat. Let’s all celebrate properly and drink until we pass out."

"With Ye Xiu dead, our good days are back. This is certainly worth celebrating. I’m in."

"I’ll go too!"

"We’ll drink ourselves into oblivion!"

Everyone in the group was carried away with joy, eagerly agreeing to go to Qingfeng Road to celebrate.

"I hear Ye Xiu’s wife is an absolute stunner. Why don’t we capture her? She can dance for us while we drink to liven things up," Su Mo suggested.

Ma Renyi: "An excellent idea, Divine Doctor Su! For days, Ye Xiu has terrified us so much we couldn’t eat or sleep. We must get our revenge through his wife."

Wen Zitao: "Make Qin Qing strip for us."

"Hahahaha!"

Gao Hongquan: "How about this? My home is close to Jin Ye City. I’ll have my son, Gao Wenshuai, make a trip there and bring Qin Qing to Qingfeng Road."

Gao Wenshuai: "Alright, I’ll head out now. Everyone, hurry up and buy your tickets to Qingfeng Road."

「At 5:53 PM」

The battle of Ye Xiu versus 2,980 War Gods finally concluded.

At that moment, tens of thousands of people stared at Ye Xiu. His face wasn’t flushed, he wasn’t out of breath, and he looked as if nothing had happened.

Everyone was shocked.

Huang Quan had fought continuously for ten hours without even stopping for lunch, yet he didn’t show the slightest hint of fatigue. He was simply inhuman!

The tens of thousands of Martial Artists present had witnessed Huang Quan’s power firsthand and suddenly realized they could never reach his current height in their lifetimes.

"Alright, let’s begin the ranking!" Ye Xiu announced loudly.

The entire venue fell silent.

The Eight Great National Protector War Gods brought over a pile of number tags. Ye Xiu took them and tossed them one by one to the War Gods corresponding to each number.

After today’s battle, he had precisely judged the strength of all 2,980 War Gods.

"Alright, the ranking is now complete," Ye Xiu announced. "If anyone has doubts about the rank I’ve assigned, you may challenge each other privately. Now, I ask that you all return to your homes overnight. Do not linger in Jin Ye City."

With that, he left.

Seeing this, Qin Qing and Chloe also departed discreetly.

Meanwhile, inside the stadium, the tens of thousands of Martial Artists went into an uproar. No one had expected that after personally ranking them, Huang Quan would then order them to leave. However, they didn’t really care.

But the head of the Xiong Family, Xiong Ba, was starting to panic. If tens of thousands of Martial Artists leave, who will join forces with the people who framed Ye Xiu ten years ago to kill him? If no one kills Ye Xiu, how am I supposed to seize his corpse?

He sent a text message to the head of the Shen Family, Shen Songshan: "The War God Ranking battle is over. Huang Quan ordered everyone to return home. What do we do?"

Shen Songshan was amused when he read it. He had no intention of killing Ye Xiu, as he was still counting on him to crack the secret of the Blood Pill. He replied, "Since it’s Huang Quan’s order, you should all come back."

Afterward, he sent a message to the Dragon Lord.

The Dragon Lord was so angry he almost passed out on the spot. How in the world is Ye Xiu so difficult to kill? Dragon Hollyhock and Long Bo went up against Ye Xiu and failed. The Tiansha Association moved against Ye Xiu and got annihilated. The group who framed Ye Xiu ten years ago spent a fortune to hire poor Martial Artists—what a great plan—and it was foiled by Huang Quan. Damn it, is Ye Xiu some kind of Roundup for plans? Every single one fails when it comes to him!
