The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine

Chapter 390: Chapter 390: Kid, you’ve offended someone you shouldn’t have!
Zhaoyue Fang hastily pulled Huang Xiaolong out of the coffee shop. They had walked some distance before she finally felt like a burden had been lifted. She quickly let go of Huang Xiaolong’s hand, lowered her head, her face completely flushed with embarrassment.

“Th…Thank you, Master Xiaolong…” Zhaoyue Fang said bashfully.

“Ah, we’re pretty familiar with each other by now. No need for such formalities, you can just call me Xiaolong.” Huang Xiaolong replied cheerfully.

“Hmm hmm~~” Zhaoyue Fang was overjoyed.

“So, why are you so scared of that guy?” Huang Xiaolong inquired with a smile.

“Oh, you mean Jiang Chenxi… I don’t know why, but every time I see him, I naturally feel uncomfortable. That feeling… It’s like…” Zhaoyue Fang gathered her thoughts before continuing, “When I was young, I once saw a venomous snake on the road… It scared me so badly I broke out in cold sweat. That terrifying feeling is still vivid to this day…and that’s how I feel when I face Jiang Chenxi.”

Huang Xiaolong chuckled to himself.

It appears that Zhaoyue Fang was indeed very sensitive and instinctively feared Jiang Chenxi.

Surely, any ordinary person would feel scared and hair-raisingly uncomfortable when encountering such a specter of a creature.

‘This entity, neither human nor ghost, is really perverted. It must be eliminated as soon as possible…’ thought Huang Xiaolong to himself.

Truthfully, the harm Jiang Chenxi could bring to society far exceeded that of an ordinary ghost. His ambition and desires, coupled with his malicious powers, would allow him to act recklessly and without restraint.

“I don’t understand what my father sees in Jiang Chenxi…” Zhaoyue Fang muttered, complaining under her breath with a pout, “Tomorrow night at grandpa’s birthday banquet, my father even invited Jiang Chenxi… oh~~~”

At this point, Zhaoyue’s expression was full of worry and melancholy.

“Hmm? A birthday banquet?” Huang Xiaolong was taken aback.

Zhaoyue Fang explained. “Grandpa turns 90 this year, Xiaolong… but… his health condition is very… very poor… The doctor said, my grandpa… may not live past this year…”

Choked up at this point, Zhaoyue Fang continued, “My parents have decided to hold a birthday banquet for my grandpa… even if it’s just to… bring cheer. However, my father didn’t invite many guests. A few days ago, the patriarch of the Gao family turned eighty and the celebration was grand. In contrast, my grandpa’s banquet tomorrow will be very low-key.”

“Ah…” Huang Xiaolong realized and nodded his head. “Jiang Chenxi was invited too?”

“Yes,” Zhaoyue Fang unavoidably nodded. “Jiang Chenxi is not our relative, and our relationship is not particularly close… only, he knows medical skills.”

“Medical Skills?” Huang Xiaolong was taken aback. He then seemed to understand something, “Mayor Fang wants Jiang Chenxi’s help, hoping he might be able to extend your grandpa’s lifespan, right?”

“Yes,” Zhaoyue replied. “The doctors have already told us that my grandpa is not suffering from any diseases, his time is simply nearing due to old age and many of his body’s organs are failing. My father can’t bear to let grandpa go, so he actively invited Jiang Chenxi.”

“Is Jiang Chenxi’s medical skill very strong?” Huang Xiaolong questioned curiously.

“It’s believed to be very strong,” Zhaoyue agreed. “My father personally witnessed Jiang Chenxi treat patients before. It seems to be a combination of western and traditional Chinese medicine, quite brilliant.”

‘Oh… I see, one of the ghosts that resides in Jiang Chenxi was a well-known doctor when he was alive. As a result, Jiang Chenxi has some medical skills… interesting, very interesting…’

In all fairness, among all the people Huang Xiaolong had come across, there were plenty of competent individuals. People like Lin Zicong, Lin Jing, and even by regular standards, Gao Tianxiang was an individual with extraordinary capabilities.

There was also Yan Pianpian, a supremely skilled, ancient martial arts expert.

However, so far, the most unusual one was undoubtedly Jiang Chenxi.

After all, this man’s body was playing host to dozens of fierce ghosts.

In a sense, he had a whole group of ghostly minions at his disposal.

If there were ever a brawl, perhaps not even Lin Zicong or Yan Pianpian would necessarily be able to defeat Jiang Chenxi!

“Xiaolong… if, if Jiang Chenxi successfully extends my grandpa’s life tomorrow night… my dad… my dad might… might make me… his girlfriend…” Zhaoyue Fang wore a somber expression, and seemed both worried and anxious.

“Ah…I can understand Mayor Fang’s thinking…” Huang Xiaolong nodded. “Jiang Chenxi is rather young, but he already has a fortune worth billions, plus he’s proficient in medicine and incredibly talented… In Binhai, such people are rare as hen’s teeth. If Mayor Fang wants to choose a son-in-law, Jiang Chenxi certainly fits the bill.”

“Right…my parents say that in Binhai, it’s hard to find anyone who’s as talented as Jiang Chenxi,” Zhaoyue grumbled. “My dad’s praise for Jiang Chenxi is just too high, even…even going as far as to say that he outshines the Four Prodigies of Binhai.”

After a pause, and with a faint blush on her cheeks, Zhaoyue quietly said, “But, my parents think very highly of you too… Dad said you and Jiang Chenxi… can be called the Twin Terrors of Binhai.”

“What? Hahahahahahaha~~~” At her words, Huang Xiaolong burst into hearty laughter as if he’d just heard the most absurd, strange, and hilarious joke in the world.

What the hell, Mayor Fang, what were you thinking? Comparing me to that weird monster Jiang Chenxi?

Twin Terrors of Binhai?

Are you blind?

Huang Xiaolong felt insulted.

He was the master of the Underworld! The Yin Emperor! He was a god!

“What qualifications does Jiang Chenxi have to compare to me?” Huang Xiaolong asked Zhaoyue seriously.

“Pff~~~~~” Zhaoyue burst out laughing at Huang Xiaolong’s expression. She giggled, “Yes, Little Long, you’re better than Jiang Chenxi! Really, you’re better than him! Little Long… Tomorrow night, can you… can you come over? I’m inviting you to my grandfather’s birthday feast! Anyway… it’s at my house; we’re neighbors, so it’ll be easy for you to come!”

Zhaoyue looked at Huang Xiaolong expectantly.

“If Jiang Chenxi is going, then I should go too.” Huang Xiaolong nodded and joked, “I have to clear my name. Let’s show Mayor Fang who is the snake and who is the dragon between me and Jiang Chenxi.”

‘Let that monster live another day. Tomorrow night, under the gaze of all, let his true form be revealed, and then consign him to the 18th level of hell where he can never reincarnate.’

At this point, Huang Xiaolong noticed some shifty and burly men lurking around the corners, eyeing them with hostile and murderous expressions.

Huang Xiaolong had an idea and turned to ask Zhaoyue, “Hey, did you drive here by yourself?”

“Yes, my car is parked outside the café.” Zhaoyue replied with a charming smile.

“Then you should drive yourself home now. I have some things to take care of.” Huang Xiaolong said with a smile.

“Okay~~~” Zhaoyue nodded. “Little Long, I’m going home now, remember, tomorrow night, you must come for my grandfather’s 90th birthday celebration…don’t forget, okay?”

“Sure, I’ll be there on time.” Huang Xiaolong agreed with a grin.

Zhaoyue soon drove herself home.

As the night fell, Huang Xiaolong calmly strolled around.

Then, he sauntered into a quiet alley.

Suddenly, under the moonlight, a dozen burly figures appeared at one end of the alley, each armed with weapons like machetes or steel pipes.

Glancing over his shoulder, he saw that the back of the alley was also blocked by a dozen more men.

“Uh…what does this mean?” Huang Xiaolong feigned surprise. “Robbery?”

“Kid, you pissed off the wrong person. You’ve attracted attention you didn’t want. We’re here to break your arms and legs… Don’t overstep your bounds!” a man with a threatening voice scornfully huffed.

The next moment, groups of armed men advanced toward Huang Xiaolong from both ends of the alley.
