A single, barely audible word escaped.

Gao Lian was struck dumb; the tips of his fingers, which were pointing straight down, began to tremble slightly, and then the corners of his mouth began to tremble as well...

...

Stepping out of the basement,

The air felt much fresher.

A gentle breeze brushed against his hair as Bai Yuan gazed at the horizon where fish were floating belly-up, feeling an unprecedented sense of relaxation.

It's been a long time since I've worked at such a high intensity...

We walked all the way into the garden.

He found a bench and leaned against it, looking at the hundreds of messages...

To be precise, there are more than several hundred.

Nine hundred and ninety-nine is merely the limit shown.

These thousands of messages are from patients he has treated over the years while traveling around practicing medicine...

【Dr. Bai, I am Li Fudong from Rufeng Temple in Jiangxi. You treated my leg ailment a year ago. Now I have received news that the Celestial Master from the Celestial Master's Mansion has come down the mountain! He is definitely going to cause trouble for the Quanxing Sect. Although you are not a member of the Quanxing Sect, the old Celestial Master may still harm you. I have a small, secluded house in Shennongjia, fully equipped. You can stay there for a few days!】

【Dr. Bai! I am Yan Bai, from under the Taihu Bridge in Suzhou. You treated my hidden injuries. I received news that the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain has descended the mountain. The Celestial Master has declared his intention to eradicate the Quanxing Sect. I dare not say anything else, but if you need any help, please let me know!】

[Unlicensed doctor... I've hired a security team around the border, and they have real weapons. Want to lay low for a while?]

[Brother Bai, this is Feng Xingtong. The Old Celestial Master has suddenly come down the mountain; he's definitely looking for trouble with the Quanxing! ...Why don't you just come to our Tianxia Society!]

[Li Qingyi: Heartless doctor! Why didn't you answer my calls? My master said the Celestial Master has come down the mountain to cause you trouble. Where are you now? I'm coming to find you!]

【Dr. Bai, I am Donghai Guan from Xiangyang City. Half a year ago, you gave my mother...】

[Brother Bai! This is Wang Paozi. The Old Celestial Master has come down the mountain! The wind is strong, let's get out of here! Run!]

【Dr. Bai...】

Text messages came from all over the country.

These are all the good relationships he has built up over the years as a doctor.

His fees are high, but he only charges once.

With excellent skills and outstanding results, and by not resorting to the tricks of hospitals, a good reputation has been built up.

But one by one...

They all tell me to run away!

Should I run away?

I kind of... don't want to!

I glanced through the information at random.

Bai Yuan thought for a moment and then called Pink Hair.

The call was answered within two seconds of being dialed, followed by a woman's furious voice...

"Bai Yuan!! You heartless bastard, why didn't you answer my call?!"

Hmm... the taste is right.

This is so pink-haired!

Chapter 120 The Celestial Master Descends the Mountain... Sweeping Away the Quanxing Sect

Xia He, who was furious, was on the phone.

Bai Yuan's lips twitched involuntarily, and he continued to explain.

"I've encountered a special patient here, and the surgery took a bit longer. What happened on your end?"

"The old Taoist priest has come down the mountain!"

"I know that, explain in more detail..."

"You know nothing?!" Xia He's anger subsided, and she suddenly asked in surprise.

Bai Yuan spoke softly:

"Pink-haired girl, could you ask any more idiotic questions? Before you even ask this question, guess why I called you?"

"You... were the first person to call me?" Xia He's voice trembled slightly on the other end of the line.

Bai Yuan sighed towards the sky.

"if not?"

"..."

Xia He paused for a few seconds before speaking:

"The Celestial Master descended the mountain with a disciple. If he encounters any members of the Quanxing Sect, he will cripple their cultivation. If he encounters any Quanxing members with murderous intent... the Celestial Master will send them on their way. In the past few days, several Quanxing strongholds scattered throughout the area have been destroyed. Moreover, the Celestial Master sent someone to deliver a message, saying that this time he descended the mountain to... wipe out the Quanxing Sect!"

"There are a lot of brainless idiots who are actively gathering, planning to use their numbers to ambush that 'Tongtian Daoist'. They're a bunch of fools who are just asking for death!"

Bai Yuan fell silent after hearing this.

To have one's cultivation destroyed...

He only kills those who harbor murderous intent...

Some people are even planning to gather and use sheer numbers to deal with the Old Master!

Well... although I don't understand, I respect it.

Life is short, so why not give it a try?

After a while,

Xia He's puzzled voice came from behind.

"But... according to what you said before, if the Celestial Master knew Gong Qing's identity from the beginning and intended to set up a scheme in secret, then that scheme has already been completed. And according to what the Celestial Master thought, the Celestial Master... shouldn't have any reason to go down the mountain to wipe out the Quanxing Sect, right?"

Bai Yuan picked up a flower petal with his fingers, but instead of answering Xia He's question, he asked a different one.

Does Gong Qing know about this?

"What... Oh! I don't know, and I can't possibly tell him." Xia He paused for a moment before realizing what he meant.

She understood that Bai Yuan was asking her if she had told Gong Qing his deduction.

Bai Yuan continued:

"My inference is just that, inference... and does not represent the actual objective situation."

"Furthermore, the Celestial Master's Mansion, as the righteous leader of the supernatural world, was attacked by the Quanxing Sect on the very night the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony ended. This was a direct slap in the face to the Celestial Master's Mansion. It would be very abnormal if Heaven didn't do something..."

"This time, the Celestial Master showed mercy when he came down the mountain. He only crippled the Quanxing disciples and didn't take their lives directly. This is a form of deterrence..."

"The Celestial Master probably wanted to tell everyone in the world that even though the Celestial Master's Mansion hasn't made a move for many years, it's definitely not a place that others can covet. There's definitely one reason why he went down the mountain to wipe out the Quanxing Sect..."

Xia He understood the meaning of the explanation, so she uttered four words accordingly.

"Kill the chicken to scare the monkey!"

Bai Yuan sighed:

"Hmm, the world of supernatural beings is rife with injustices. Everyone who's survived this long is incredibly shrewd. If we don't give them a good warning this time, who knows how many will try to pull something wicked..."

They thought Longhu Mountain was an easy target.

Xia He reviewed her words in her mind, then took a deep breath.

Where are you now?

"I'm in the Northeast." Bai Yuan didn't hide anything.

"Don't come back anytime soon..."

"what?"

"I didn't understand. I'm telling you not to come back anytime soon!"

Hearing Xia He bristle again, Bai Yuan chuckled and asked:

"Pink Hair, you've called me over 100 times in the past two days. I thought you wanted to ask me for help, but unexpectedly... now you're telling me not to go back? Little Pink Hair, are you worried about my personal safety?"

"..."

The call fell silent for a few seconds.

"Bai! Yuan! Go to hell!"

Xia He gritted her teeth, her voice trembling slightly, and first cursed fiercely.

"You're not a member of the Quanxing Sect, what are you doing here causing trouble!"

Then,

The tone shifted abruptly, becoming filled with arrogance and disdain.

"I called you just to ask if you were alive? I was worried about your safety? Hehehe~ Do you think I'm that stupid?!"

Bai Yuan sighed heavily into the phone.

"I'm so heartbroken. I thought you cared about me~"

"Hmph~ What idiot would care about a bastard like you!"

"Okay, okay... that's settled then."

Bai Yuan prepared to hang up the phone.

A voice suddenly came from the phone, stopping them.

"and many more!"

"What else?"

"...Nothing...I need to hang up now!"

beep...

Bai Yuan stared at the phone screen where the call had been disconnected.

He shook his head helplessly.

This idiot pink-haired guy...

...

On the other side,

Headquarters of Nadutong

Unexpectedly, within such a short period of time...

The heads of each region and senior company executives held another meeting.

however,

The tone of this meeting was very somber.

Zhao Fangxu, sitting in the first seat, adjusted his glasses.

"Is everyone here?"

"not yet..."

Huang Boren responded, and then explained:

"Manager Gao, the head of the Northeast region, has been feeling unwell these past few days and is unable to attend this meeting at headquarters."

That's why I spoke up to explain.

This wasn't an explanation for Zhao Fangxu, but for everyone else present.

Zhao Fangxu nodded, then tapped the table with his finger.

"I'm sure everyone is clear about the purpose of this meeting. The Celestial Master has come down the mountain and publicly stated that he intends to wipe out the Quanxing Sect. I hope that everyone will not remain silent on this matter and will express their opinions."
