Chapter 19: A Direct Look at the Battleground
While the water was boiling, Du Qiteng turned his attention back to the young man.
"You think I can't find it just because you don't say anything?"
"Now that I've told you, at least you'll suffer less physical pain."
"what……"
The young man's arm was decisively severed by Uncle Fu, and he let out a wail of pain.
"I said, can you please let me go?"
The young man raised his head with tears in his eyes, looking pleadingly at Du Qiteng, whose face was cold.
Du Qiteng didn't respond; under the current circumstances, the young man had no right to negotiate with him.
"Is that all?"
Peng Lili held a small bowl full of water and looked at Xu Yuan with a mixture of belief and doubt.
Can this one bowl of water really restore my daughter to her original state?
Always a believer in science, she couldn't help but look at Hua Yicheng.
When his gaze fell upon him, Hua Yicheng simply lowered his head.
He didn't believe that making a wish could cure Du Aili, but he didn't have any good ideas himself.
It's better to wait until making a wish doesn't work, and then ask for it yourself.
"Give it to her."
Xu Yuan pointed to Du Aili, who was sitting upright in the car. She had started tearing at her clothes and was moaning softly in pain.
Seeing her daughter in such pain, Peng Lili seemed to have made up her mind to try anything, even if it seemed hopeless.
She ordered someone to step forward and support Du Aili's hands and feet to prevent her from moving around.
"Aili, drink this, and you'll feel better."
Watching helplessly as the soup in the bowl was poured into Du Aili's mouth, Du Qiteng walked forward expectantly to check on the situation.
"Why is it still not working?"
"I told you, he's a liar." Hua Yicheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief when Du Aili didn't reply.
If he can't cure it himself, how could this country bumpkin possibly have a solution?
"Someone come here."
Du Qiteng's voice was cold and stern as he stared directly at Xu Yuan, who was standing under the tree: "Keep an eye on him. If anything happens to my daughter..."
"Cough cough cough..."
Du Aili coughed violently twice in the car. Peng Lili was overjoyed, and the gloom on her face vanished in an instant. She leaned over to check on Du Aili's condition.
"mom?"
Du Aili opened her eyes and saw her mother. She looked around blankly.
"Where am I?"
"Aili, you're awake?" Peng Lili held her daughter's hand with joy, tears welling up in her eyes.
"You scared your mother to death."
Du Qiteng stepped forward and looked sternly into the car.
"How are you feeling?"
"I'm just a little dizzy, I don't know what happened," Du Aili replied, her head hanging down.
She had no recollection of what happened.
Hua Yicheng, who had been gloating, looked embarrassed. He hadn't expected that he would actually be fooled by Xu Yuan, that little liar.
It's absolutely a coincidence.
The vice dean poked him with his finger, and Hua Yicheng instantly understood, running forward eagerly.
"Auntie, Uncle, let me check Ai Li again."
With the stethoscope hanging around his neck, Hua Yicheng began his examination with a serious expression.
"If the formation is broken, the person who set it up will suffer a backlash."
It's not too late to go look for them now; they'll be gone in a minute.
Xu Yuanyou's kind reminder made Du Qiteng realize what was happening, and an awkward smile appeared on his serious face.
"I was in a hurry just now, please forgive me."
Xu Yuan remained silent, secretly marveling at how quickly these people could change their expressions—more skillfully than magicians.
In the grove of trees in Rainbow Park, an elderly man sitting cross-legged on the ground suddenly widened his eyes, then spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground.
Upon seeing this, a young man sitting on a stool nearby playing a mobile game got up and ran towards the old man.
"Master, what's wrong?"
"It's broken!"
"What's broken?"
The young man was completely bewildered, while the old man fainted.
He stayed by the old man's side for half an hour, and the old man woke up again.
"Master, you're awake."
The old man opened his eyes and sat up abruptly: "How long has it been? How long have I been unconscious?"
The young man glanced at the time: "It's been almost half an hour."
"Oh no, let's go!"
The old man got up from the ground, not even having time to collect the nine copper coins on the ground, and turned to leave.
"Master, Xiao Bei hasn't returned yet?"
"He's not coming back," the old man said without further explanation.
"It's probably a bit too late to run now."
A playful voice sounded from behind, and the old man suddenly turned around. A gentle breeze stirred the strands of hair he was making a wish, giving him an ethereal air.
In the distance, Uncle Fu, accompanied by the Du family's bodyguards, followed at a leisurely pace.
The old man paused, realizing he couldn't escape.
The person who could break his Peach Blossom Formation and cause him to fall into a coma for half an hour must be of a higher level than him.
Xu Yuan noticed the copper coins and talismans on the ground and knew he had found the right person.
He came in person not to help the Du family, but out of curiosity about who had set up the Peach Blossom Formation.
"Aren't you afraid of divine retribution for using these things to harm people?"
What constitutes harming others?
What does it mean to help others?
The old man stood calmly in place, no longer thinking about running away, and watched Xu Yuan approach warily.
"Whether you harm others or help others, the essence is the same; both are for the sake of people."
You say I'm harming people, only because you're the one being harmed.
In my view, helping others solve their problems is also a form of helping others.
Xu Yuan nodded in agreement; there was no right or wrong, it was just that everyone had a different perspective.
"What did he go to do?"
Du Aili sat in the car, curiously watching Xu Yuan's back through the glass, while her parents beside her didn't know how to explain.
Du Qiteng's position meant he knew some of the secrets surrounding him.
This is the first time I've witnessed it with my own eyes.
"Will they start fighting?"
"With Uncle Fu around, he shouldn't suffer any losses."
In the woods, the old man suddenly took out a talisman and threw it into the air. With a flick of his finger, fire ignited in the void, the talisman burned, and a powerful force rippled in front of him.
"Young people, we're all just trying to make a living, why make things difficult for each other?"
"Let me leave, and I promise I will never set foot in Mingdai again."
"If it really comes down to a fight to the death, you might not be my match."
"As you said yourself, we're all in the same industry."
Make a wish, put one hand behind your back, and stop walking at an appropriate distance.
"A person like you, if kept around, will probably harm even more people. You're really bringing shame to our industry."
"You mean you won't let me go?"
The old man gave Xu Yuan no response, then suddenly exerted his strength, pointing his sword towards the sky, and an invisible force rushed straight towards Xu Yuan's chest.
Xu Yuan stood firmly in place, casually tossing out a talisman and lightly tapping it with his sword finger.
"break!"
call……
The gentle breeze instantly turned into a gale, whipping the trees into a frenzy, as if a tornado had struck, with tree roots seemingly about to be uprooted.
"This…"
Peng Lili, who was on the bus, rubbed her eyes abruptly, thinking she was seeing things.
"What is that?"
Du Qiteng stared blankly at the two people in the woods, as if they were fighting.
With a flick of his sword, Xu Yuan pointed three times, and the swirling wind seemed to understand his command, rolling and enveloping the old man.
A flame suddenly appeared in the center of the wind circle, the gale dissipated, and everything returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
Only one yellow talisman in mid-air turned into black ash and fell to the ground.
From beginning to end, it's all over in the blink of an eye; you can't see what happened unless you look closely.
"Where's that old man?" Du Aili tried to roll down the glass, but Du Qiteng stopped her.
"Remember, you didn't see anything today."
Du Qiteng looked at the now calm forest outside, while Xu Yuan walked out with one hand behind her back.
If I'm not mistaken, the old man must have vanished into thin air, like ashes falling from mid-air.
Xu Yuan glanced at the car where Du Aili was from afar, but did not approach it. Instead, she spoke a few words to Uncle Fu.
Uncle Fu was even more impressed by Xu Yuan's miraculous abilities and ran to Du Qiteng's car.
"Boss, Mr. Xu is going back."
He said he still had some things to take care of at home.
Du Qiteng nodded: "You can take Mr. Xu home."
Watching Uncle Fu drive away, Du Qiteng resumed his boss-like demeanor, rolled down the car window to look at the bodyguards outside, and pointed to the young man in the back who was trembling with fear.
"Take them both back and find out who's behind this."
