Chapter 149: Like Father Like Daughter

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

As the green cloud condor landed on the training grounds, the middle-aged man standing on it with his hands clasped behind his back leapt to the ground, three feet of green haze gushing from his feet, cushioning him as he landed soundly..

Exuding three feet of qi was the hallmark of a middle Connate-stage adept.

The middle-aged man was of average build, his stern face like a knife, with prominent cheekbones, his eyes sharp and alert like an eagle’s.

Besides this, he had a hooked nose like an eagle’s beak. Standing there, staring at Zhou Donghuang from a distance, he made Zhou Donghuang feel like an eagle demon was staring at him.

“Father!”

As the middle-aged man landed, Chen Dandan went to meet him, twin streams of tears falling from her eyes. “Your daughter is useless. I have wasted all the effort you have spent on me all this time!”

“From today onwards, I am just a martial invalid, with no means to make you proud.”

Chen Dandan rushed forward straight into the arms of the middle-aged man and hugged him tightly, twitching violently as she cried her heart out.

The middle-aged man was Chen Dandan’s biological father, the second elder of the Valley of the Medicine Masters, Chen Tianhe.

Chen Tianhe held a high position in the Valley of the Medicine Masters, and was in charge of supervising and liaising with seven of the Sixteen Countries of the East Valley, including the country of Yunyang.

Now, Chen Tianhe’s gaze left the youth and fell on the young lady in his arms, the severity of his gaze dissipating and replaced by a deep look of tender love.

“Dandan, don’t cry, let me take a look.”

Chen Tianhe did a physical check of Chen Dandan as he spoke, and when he confirmed that the meridians in Chen Dandan’s body had been utterly destroyed, his expression darkened completely.

In that moment, he was certain: his daughter’s level of practice had been destroyed completely.

Moreover, all the meridians in the body had been destroyed, with no possibility of recovery. Even a Primal Core adept would be helpless in this situation!

In an instant, Chen Tianhe’s gaze followed the path created through the crowd and landed once again on the youth, full of cold murder.

“You are that piece of trash Zhou Donghuang that my daughter mentioned to me earlier?”

Chen Tianhe said in a cold voice, “You dare destroy my daughter’s level of practice? If you don’t explain yourself, you can stay in the Valley of the Medicine Masters forever.”

As soon as he finished speaking, an overwhelming look of cold murder rose in Chen Tianhe’s eyes.

Although Chen Tianhe was still some distance away from Zhou Donghuang, the entire training grounds was completely silent, so even though his voice was not very loud, it carried clearly..

“Explanation?”

Chen Tianhe looked as though he was about to devour someone, but Zhou Donghuang remained calm, and his voice was even. “You, what are you? When I, Zhou Donghuang, do something, why should I give you an explanation?”

Such arrogance!

As the youth’s voice died away, the same thought rose unbidden in the minds of everyone present, which was that the youth was far too arrogant.

The person who had come was not someone that Elder Li of the Valley of the Medicine Masters could match up to.

Elder Li was only an early Connate-stage adept, and had not practiced first-grade techniques, which was why he was defeated by the youth.

But the person who had arrived was the second elder of the Valley of the Medicine Masters, not only a middle Connate-stage adept, but also someone who had practiced the first-grade techniques of the Valley of the Medicine Masters.

Although the youth was strong, he was only an early Connate-stage adept, and was no match for the second elder.

Seeing how arrogant the youth was before the second elder of the Valley of the Medicine Masters, they looked once more at the youth together with pity in their eyes.

“Fine, fine ...fine!”

Seeing that Zhou Donghuang not only spoke arrogantly but gazed at him with a look of condescension, Chen Tianhe was vexed to the point of speechlessness.

“In my whole life so far, this is the first time that I, Chen Tianhe, have seen someone as arrogant as you!”

When Chen Tianhe spoke again, his voice was even colder, as though the temperature of the surrounding air had dropped several degrees, making one feel as though they had entered a freezer.

“Dandan, your father will avenge you.”

When Chen Tianhe returned his gaze to Chen Dandan, he suppressed the rage that was threatening to explode from inside him, speaking gently to her, but his voice was somewhat hoarse from suppressing his emotions.

“Father.”

Chen Dandan looked up, a frosty expression on her tear-stained face. “Capture him, and after you destroy his level of practice, give him to me to kill.”

“I want to flay him alive!”

“If he will cooperate and hand over the treasure left behind by the Primal Core adept, I will grant him a quick death. If he refuses to cooperate, I will cut the flesh from his body one piece at a time, and feed it to the dogs before his eyes!”

Chen Dandan’s tone was even colder than Chen Tianhe’s, and as her voice rang out, it was as though the entire training grounds was plunged into winter.

“Dandan, you are still thinking very thoroughly. If you had not mentioned it, I would have forgotten all about the treasure left behind by the Primal Core adept that he has.”

Although the disciple of the Valley of the Medicine Masters who had gone to report to Chen Tianhe earlier had mentioned that Zhou Donghuang had obtained some treasure left behind by a Primal Core adept, by the time Chen Tianhe had arrived at the scene and been so thoroughly vexed by Zhou Donghuang, he had completely forgotten about this.

It was only when Chen Dandan mentioned it that he recalled it.

This youth had somehow managed to obtain a treasure left behind by a Primal Core adept, so naturally should not be killed straightaway. Even if he were to be killed, it would be after he handed over the treasure left behind by the Primal Core adept.

“Zhou Donghuang!”

At this time, Chen Dandan stepped out of Chen Tianhe’s embrace, and looked at Zhou Donghuang, her eyes gleaming coldly, as she said icily, “I remember ...that day, when I left the Magnolia Guild, you told me that you hoped I would not come to regret my actions.”

“Do I recall correctly?” Chen Dandan asked.

“Correct.”

Zhou Donghuang nodded indifferently.

“Thinking back on it, you said that to me because you had already obtained the treasure left behind by the Primal Core adept, am I right?”

When Dandan did not wait for Zhou Donghuang to reply to her questioned and continued, “If I had only that small preeminent Hong family to back me up, perhaps I would regret.”

“But now, I am the daughter of the second elder of the Valley of the Medicine Masters. And my father, the second elder of the Valley of the Medicine Masters, Chen Tianhe, can easily slaughter you!”

“Regarding what you said then ...I will reaffirm it: I, Chen Dandan, will never regret!”

At this, a cold smile rose at the corners of Chen Dandan’s mouth, and the look of hate and murder in her eyes became more intense again.

“Is that so?”

Hearing what Chen Dandan had to say, Zhou Donghuang smiled casually, and glanced again at Chen Tianhe. “It seems you are very confident in your father.”

“Of course!”

Chen Dandan raised her head confidently like a proud peacock. “My father is not only the second elder of the Valley of the Medicine Masters, but is furthermore a middle Connate-stage adept.”

“Don’t think that since you defeated Elder Li there is no one in the Valley of the Medicine Masters who can put you in your place. In the Valley of the Medicine Masters, although there are not many people who can defeat you, there are enough.”

“And my father is one such person!”

As Chen Dandan’s voice died away, Chen Tianhe’s legs were already moving, walking towards the youth in the distance. “Nineteen years old, and at the early Connate stage. If you had not had these accomplishments because you obtained some treasure left behind by a Primal Core adept, you would be the absolute tyrant of all gifted adepts!”

“That someone like you from a small remote place in the country of Yunyang could obtain a treasure left behind by a Primal Core adept and still be so accomplished ...if you gave it to any one of the disciples of the Valley of the Medicine Masters, we would have far exceeded you in our accomplishments!”

“Giving that kind of treasure to you is a waste!”

“If you are sensible, hand it over now and I will tell my daughter to leave your corpse intact!”

As Chen Tianhe finished speaking indifferently, he entered the crowd and stood facing the youth, staring furiously at him.

“Are you done?”

Zhou Donghuang raised an eyebrow lazily, sweeping an indifferent gaze over Chen Tianhe. With a shake of his right arm, a small metal sphere rolled out from his sleeve.

Zhou Donghuang toyed casually with the small metal sphere in his hand as he looked playfully at Chen Tianhe. “Chen Tianhe, is it?”

“You should know that, when she was five, your daughter Chen Dandan was wandering the streets, orphaned and destitute, almost starving to death ...and my mother took her home out of the wind and snow, fed her and clothed her.”

“You should also know that when she was nine, she had a chronic illness ...and my mother braved the wind and rain to scale sheer cliffs at great risk to her own life to pick herbs to help her recover, and saved her life.”

“Also ...”

Seeing that Zhou Donghuang was about to continue, Chen Tianhe interrupted him coldly. “Your mother helped my Dandan probably because she knew that she was the daughter of Chen Tianhe and wanted to curry favor with me.”

“Don’t speak of your mother as though she was so noble ...and don’t use your mother’s pitiful efforts to paint Dandan as ungrateful,” Chen Tianhe said indifferently.

Zhou Donghuang was momentarily stunned at Chen Tianhe’s words, but quickly regained his wits and could not help laughing. “Previously, I had only heard of the saying ‘like father like daughter’ ...today I, Zhou Donghuang, consider myself to have seen it firsthand.”

“So Chen Dandan’s ungratefulness comes from you.”

Cold light shone from Zhou Donghuang’s eyes.

“Stop talking nonsense!”

Chen Tianhe smiled coldly as he spoke, an icy look coming into his eyes. “Since you don’t intend to surrender yourself and hand over the treasure left behind by the Primal Core adept, I will capture you myself, and hand you over to my daughter to do with as she pleases!”

As soon as Chen Tianhe finished speaking, qi three feet deep burst forth from his whole body, and with a quiver of his body, he seemed to transform into a ball of blue fireworks rushing straight at Zhou Donghuang, his savage onslaught like an army of ten thousand charging the enemy.

“Hng!”

Faced with Chen Tianhe’s savage onslaught, which had already covered half the distance between them, Zhou Donghuang merely grunted lightly once more.

The next moment, a foot of qi poured into the small metal sphere in his right hand.

In an instant, following the infusion of one foot of qi, the small metal sphere, or more accurately, a sword sphere, transformed into a small metal sword that glittered all over with a visible cold light.

Swish!!

With a wave of Zhou Donghuang’s arm, the small metal sword sliced through the air like a comet flashing briefly through the night sky.
