Chapter 54: Giving the New Patient an Injection!

Ding Zhaoyi.

The traitor of the Great Xia.

The Dark Star General, one of the Seventy-Two Heavenly Guardians of the Sky Demon Cult.

Jiang He quietly committed the name to memory.

Then, Zhou Tong instructed him again.

"Don't worry, Captain Zhou. I know what to do."

With that …

He jogged along the park's track.

After all, he was not done with his exercise after lunch. Being a very disciplined person, how could Jiang He give up on training over a minor assassination attempt?

He watched as Jiang He left.

"Men!" Zhou Tong called out.

Several men in black promptly gathered around him.

"Arrange for our men to continue investigating this case … I really want to see who would be so bold as to make a move right after the Sky Demon Cult issued a Sanguinary Order!"

A cold glint flashed in Zhou Tong's eyes as he said, "Keep an eye on the old rank-sixes … inform the intelligence department to keep an eye on any foreign martial artist who enters Wu City from now on."

"Moreover, plant a few more men at Anning Psychiatric Rehabilitation Center to protect Jiang He in secret."

"Ah …"

One of the men in black asked, "Captain Zhou, how … how do we plant them?"

"To avoid alerting the enemy, I'll think of a way to plant all of you as patients in the hospital …" Zhou Tong replied.

…

Meanwhile.

One kilometer away from the park.

Beside the road.

An off-road vehicle was slowly driving away.

There was a silver crate at the back seat, within which was an M99 anti-materiel sniper rifle.

The driver was a middle-aged man in a Chinese tunic suit who appeared to be in his fifties, while another middle-aged man sat beside him.

"Damn it!"

"What's going on?"

"Why is that brat so thick-skinned?"

"According to the Sky Demon Cult's information, Jiang He is a pure physique cultivator, and his physical strength should be between ten thousand catties to thirty thousand catties. The reason he could kill Xiang Rongshan and Fang Tailai was because he was on good terms with Li Wei, the Poison Master, and got some poison from him. Moreover, Fang Tailai was heavily injured in the first place."

"We've studied the video of his fight with Fang Tailai as well."

"At the time, Jiang He's strength was equal to rank-five pinnacle, and that was because he had taken some potion that improves his strength!"

The middle-aged man in the front passenger seat gritted his teeth and said, "But why is his skin so thick? The M99 anti-material sniper rifle and the new composite metal armor-piercing bullets couldn't hurt him … Could it be that his defense is stronger than a rank-5 Direbeast? "

The chauffeur who was driving.

On the other hand, he was silent for a long time before saying, "Old Zhang … let's stop. I have a nagging feeling that the brat is too demonic, and with the Martial Arts Department (MAD) enforcers involved, we might get ourselves killed before we could even kill Jiang He!"

"Stop?"

On the other hand, the middle-aged man in the front passenger seat was a little agitated. His expression was ferocious as he said, "Old Huang, it's been more than 10 years. You and I have been stuck at Peak Rank-6 for more than 10 years. If we don't have the opportunity, we won't be able to step into the Grandmaster realm in this lifetime!"

"And if I kill Jiang He, I'll get a Fish Dragon Pellet and a top-notch martial art!"

"At that time, we won't ask for any martial arts. We just want two Fish-dragon Pills. Then, both of us will have the hope of stepping into the Grandmaster Realm!"

"This is also our only hope … Are you willing to give up after practicing martial arts for thirty years?"

The driver was silent again.

Then, he asked, "How many murders has the Sky Demon Cult committed over the years?"

"The Sky Demon Cult was behind the Feral Swarm that attacked Wu City eighteen years ago as well … wouldn't we be betraying the Great Xia if we do that? Wouldn't we be helping the tyrant?"

"No!"

"Others would kill Jiang He even if we don't!"

"How many of the Sky Demon Cult's Sanguine Kill Order have survived over the years?"

"Since he's going to die anyway, we might as well help him … when we become Grandmasters, we could kill more Ferals and more Sky Demon Cultists. Jiang He would definitely understand us if he knew in the underworld!"

The driver, Old Huang, said, "But this attack has alerted the enforcers, and Jiang He would definitely be on guard … what should we do next?"

Old Zhang, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, smiled as if he had everything under control and said, "I heard that the food at Anning Psychiatric Rehabilitation Center is quite good. We're old now … perhaps we could go and experience it."

Meanwhile.

This Heavenly Devil's Blood Killing Order had already been spread to all the cities in the northwest.

Someone had even posted the sky-high bounty for the Sky Demon's Blood Kill Token on the Warrior Home forums, stirring much discussion and many began to 'investigate' Jiang He in secret.

…

"Ding!"

"Reasonable exercise, strength + 10kg."

On the track in the park.

Jiang He only stopped running when the System Notification jingled in his head.

He carried the saber on his back and walked out of the park towards the hospital.

After a morning of familiarization, Jiang He's control over his own strength improved to a certain extent. At the very least, he would not leave 'footprints' like he did in the morning.

However …

Walking on the streets.

Jiang He noticed that many people were staring at him.

This made him feel very uneasy …"Are there any Sky Demon Cultists hiding amongst them?"

"Or is it someone who was moved by the sky-high bounty on the Heavenly Devil's [Blood Killing Token] and wants to harm me?"

"Why?"

"What's going on?"

Jiang He could not help screaming inwardly, "What is wrong with this world?All I want is a peaceful life. I killed Xiang Rongshan and Fang Tailai to protect myself … why is everyone trying to kill me? "

Across the road, a scantily clad woman was walking towards him.

Jiang He noticed that she had been staring at him.

That left Jiang He unwittingly wary.

As they brushed past each other …"Ah!"

The woman deliberately bumped Jiang He with her shoulder before dropping her bag on the ground.

"Ouch!"

The woman said coquettishly, "You hurt me, handsome …"

She bent down to pick up her bag.

And then …

She took the chance to strike up a conversation.

After all, the Lord Warrior was especially young and handsome, especially when he was wearing a long white coat that resembled a doctor's. The buttons in front of his chest were unbuttoned, revealing his sculpted abs and pecs.

That was too much of a blow for love-struck women.

Still…

Shiiing!

As soon as the woman bent down, a knife was placed on her neck.

Jiang He, S-series alloy combat blade in hand, coldly said, "How dare you show off in front of an expert with such clumsy acting skills. I'll give you three seconds, so if you have any last words … say them now!"

The woman was dumbstruck.

She let out a cry and started to cry.

"I …"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry…sob sob so…I just saw how handsome you are and how great your body is. You must be a martial artist since you can carry a combat blade on the streets, so I wanted to get to know you…sob sob sob!"

Jiang He was dumbstruck.

Was there a mistake?

When he saw that more people were looking at him, he quickly put away his blade and disappeared from the street with a whoosh.

His burst of speed reached 50m/s, stirring up a gust of wind that blew the hem of the woman's skirt.

He ran all the way back to the wards.

Just as Jiang He reached the fourth floor, he heard a squeal that sounded like a pig being slaughtered —"No!"

"I'm not sick … I'm not taking medicine, I'm not getting injections!"

"Eh?"

Arriving at Room 404, he found the chubby nurse, Feng Shaoyu, and several male doctors holding down a young man and feeding him medicine. He promptly asked, "Is this the new patient?"

"The one with a sword in his head?"

He walked up to the bed.

The patient appeared to be around seventeen or eighteen years old and was struggling.

The chubby nurse could not hold him down even with her 1100kg arm strength, and promptly snatched the syringe from her hand, saying, "You can't even get a needle in with so many people?"

"Let him go! I'll do it!"

The chubby nurse let go.

Whoosh!

The young man leapt up from the bed like a carp and turned to flee.

Slap!

The general reacted swiftly, and chopped the young man's neck with a karate chop.

Thud!

The young man promptly dropped to the floor and fainted.

Jiang He exclaimed, "Quick … take off your pants. I'll give him an injection!"
