Peerless Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 726 - 728: Must Go
Chapter 726: Chapter 728: Must Go
“Oh? You can represent Heavenly Mansion?” Xia Liu also gave Qin Wu a glance.
Some people really think they’re so high and mighty with just a whisper of authority.
“You!” Qin Wu was so angry his teeth were practically grinding, unable to respond to Xia Liu’s counterattack.
“Mr. Xia Liu, Daoist Fellow Qin has a bit of a temper, I apologize on his behalf,” Lei Li has always sought stability, even with the backing of Heavenly Mansion.
But in some situations, it’s inappropriate to be too forceful.
For instance, in Xia Liu’s case, whose cultivation depth was unknown, politeness was the best approach to conversation.
As for Lei Li’s words, Qin Wu silently diverted his gaze.
In his heart, he had already decided that if Xia Liu dared to defy the Chief’s invitation, he would resort to showing his martial prowess!
“Cut the crap, and tell me straight. What does Heavenly Mansion want from me?”
Xia Liu couldn’t wrap his head around this point.
If this was about the Liu Family’s affairs, Heavenly Mansion shouldn’t have gotten involved.
Thinking carefully, there must be other issues at hand.
“Here’s the deal, the Psychic Bureau from America has brought a video file over, demanding Heavenly Mansion hand over the Nether Emperor…”
Lei Li then proceeded to explain it all.
This issue had already sparked controversy half a month earlier.
At that time, Austin arrived in Huaxia with his powerful subordinates, directly confronting Heavenly Mansion.
In the end, Heavenly Mansion had no choice but to compromise, as Austin had not only brought compelling evidence but also a dreadful super expert with him.
“Oh? The Psychic Bureau shows up, and then you Heavenly Mansion want to hand me over?”
Xia Liu felt like laughing, as in this affair, he stood for Fang Huasheng.
Who stood behind Fang Huasheng, for whom he worked—these things were clear without saying.
Yet, when the enemy came knocking, Heavenly Mansion sent someone to ‘invite’ him over.
To put it nicely it was an invitation, but to be blunt, it was an abduction.
“That’s not how it is. The Chief just wants to invite you to explain a bit,” Lei Li said with a wry smile on his face.
In this matter, he too thought Xia Liu was in the wrong.
Not for what he did, but for how he chose to do it.
With the abilities to conceal his identity, why leave traces for enemies to follow?
“Go back and tell your Chief that I don’t have much to explain about this affair. If Austin insists, tell him to pick any place, and the Nether Emperor’s hand will show him what true Asura Purgatory is,” Xia Liu said fearlessly in the face of intimidation from the Psychic Bureau and Heavenly Mansion.
Moreover, Heavenly Mansion’s handling of this matter was undeniably weak.
Such a Heavenly Mansion, how could it claim the right to govern all martial artists?
Xia Liu’s response put Lei Li in a difficult position.
Clearly, he would not accept this invitation.
“Tsk tsk, a brat who looks down on everyone, you can’t be rampant in this matter. To avoid unnecessary trouble, you must go!” Qin Wu’s inner strength was quietly circulating, ready to use martial force at a moment’s notice if Xia Liu dared utter another word of refusal.
“Oh? So when outside enemies come demanding people, Heavenly Mansion’s cowardice is one thing, but now you even dare to come knocking on my door? Do you really think my brothers are easy to bully?”
It was at that moment, standing next to Xia Liu, Lin Xiaotian released his spiritual energy, imposing a pressure that enveloped the whole house.
Suddenly, Lei Li and Qin Wu’s eyes widened.
Because they could clearly feel that this oppressive aura had already reached the peak of the Heavenly Rank Early Level!
What shocked them was that Lin Xiaotian was still so young; if he had a few more years, he was likely to surpass the Heaven Rank and reach the legendary Dao Realm.
“Xiaotian, try to stay calm,”
“Yes.”
Seeing that Lin Xiaotian was so obedient to Xia Liu, Lei Li and Qin Wu grew even more suspicious.
Because the aura lingering around Xia Liu was merely at the peak of the Earth Rank.
With such a vast gap between the Earth Rank and Heaven Rank, how was he qualified to command a Heaven-Rank Warrior?
“A Heaven-Rank Early Level Warrior is still not enough to shake the Heavenly Mansion, but out of respect for your friend, if you agree to take a trip with us, the Heavenly Mansion will definitely help you smooth things over.”
Qin Wu sized up Lin Xiaotian for a moment, then spoke solemnly to Xia Liu.
“That’s too big of a favor; I can’t take it. Go back and tell your Chief that in three days, I’ll head to Yanjing and he can come to receive me personally.”
After all, he was planning to go to Yanjing soon anyway.
Austin wanted to cause trouble, and the Heavenly Mansion dared not speak up, so he wanted to see how they intended to deal with the situation.
“How audacious! The Chief is not someone you, a mere ant, can disparage,” Qin Wu said threateningly, his aura at the peak of the Heavenly Rank Early Level bearing down on Xia Liu.
But to his surprise, his oppressive force seemed to have no effect on Xia Liu at all; he remained the same composed and carefree individual.
Lei Li noticed this too, and because Xia Liu’s cultivation was so peculiar, he didn’t stop Qin Wu.
In recent days, seeing so many warriors in this village had led him to suspect something.
And today, seeing Lin Xiaotian, a young Heaven-Rank Warrior.
Some decisions were becoming hard to make.
“If there’s nothing left to discuss, I will not welcome you here. I’ll give you one chance to repent. Leave now, and I’ll let bygones be bygones,”
Xia Liu stood with his hands behind his back, turning his body to face away from Lei Li and Qin Wu.
“Hmph! Truly defiant. It seems you do want to be an enemy of the Heavenly Mansion!” Faced with Xia Liu’s assertiveness, Qin Wu could not stand idly by. If not for the concern over Lin Xiaotian, he would have already taken action.
“Mr. Xia Liu, we’re not in a position to make a decision on this matter; I hope you won’t make this difficult for us,” Lei Li said softly.
“Make it difficult for you? When I wasn’t home, who entered my house without reason, and just with that act of scaring my family, I have a just and upright reason to kill you!”
“We are truly sorry about that; we had no choice but to do it,”
Lei Li too felt that their approach was improper, but to get Xia Liu to show up, they had to resort to such intimidation.
“Daoist Fellow Lei, why bother talking so much with him? Let’s join forces and capture him to take back!” Qin Wu said angrily.
Lei Li remained silent as a vast inner strength quietly circulated within his Dantian.
“The reason I’m still speaking to you civilly is because I thought the Heavenly Mansion stood for the righteousness of Huaxia. But now, it seems this righteousness is quite feeble.”
Feeling the pressure from the two men, Xia Liu shook his head helplessly.
Such a feeble Heavenly Mansion was actually the authority governing martial artists of the world.
What misfortune for the world’s warriors.
“My friend, I hope you don’t take action, otherwise, you’ll be considered an enemy of the Heavenly Mansion,” Qin Wu, aware of the power of a Heaven-Rank Warrior, warned that if Lin Xiaotian took action, this villa could be completely destroyed.

Only by crippling Xia Liu would calm be restored!
“I don’t mind becoming an enemy of the Heavenly Mansion, but if he acts, I can only ever stand aside and look on,” Lin Xiaotian shook his head, knowing he was far inferior to Xia Liu; how could he possibly have the opportunity to act in his presence?
