Chapter 18 Kneel Down to Spare Your Life_1

```

Thud thud thud!

After being glanced at by Liu Qinghe, Wu Hongwei's complexion turned deathly pale, and he staggered back several steps. If it hadn't been for Su Yi patting him on the back, he would have probably knelt on the ground.

Moreover, Wu Hongwei felt utterly horrified inside.

That sensation just now was as if he had plummeted into hell itself.

Yet, his heart filled with even greater anger.

He was someone who stubbornly stood by his principles. Since he had brought Su Yi, he naturally had to ensure his safety.

Just as he was about to step forward again, Su Yi behind him tugged at his arm.

The surrounding crowd also subconsciously retreated.

Although Liu Qinghe seemed ordinary and even amiable,

facing him, that soul-deep pressure made them extremely unsettled.

"Let me do this!"

Su Yi, however, walked up with a smile.

"You..."

He wanted to offer a reminder, but when he saw Su Yi's indifferent expression, he was stunned.

That's a Martial Artist!

Truly a case of a newborn calf not fearing a tiger!

"Alas!"

He thumped his chest and sighed deeply.

Could it be that a genius in the field of medicine was about to fall here?

Behind them, Ji Liqun, who had been released by Su Yi, rubbed his wrists while looking disdainfully at Su Yi's retreating figure.

"Now you realize how stupid you've been."

"Why don't you kneel down and beg Master Liu for mercy? Perhaps you'll end up with a swift end!"

He curled his lip, speaking mockingly.

"You are Su Yi? You're as good as dead today!"

Liu Qinghe sized up Su Yi with a glance and said impatiently.

In his eyes, such trivial matters weren't worth his handiwork as a Martial Artist.

However, since the Chen Family had spoken, he couldn't well refuse.

After all, he received a huge wealth from the Chen Family every year.

"I've said it before, I won't let off a single member of the Chen Family."

"With just you alone, you think you can protect the Chen Family?"

What?! The surrounding crowd was stunned.

They had originally wanted to see Su Yi beg for mercy.

What's this now? Isn't this too arrogant?

"Su Yi, you've got some nerve!"

Ji Liqun widened his eyes and, screeching, jumped in front of Su Yi.

"Even if you're a medical Grandmaster, you're nothing in front of a Martial Artist like Master Liu."

"Master Liu could crush you to death more easily than an ant, do you believe that?"

Su Yi narrowed his eyes and glanced at him: "I don't!"

"You son of a..."

Ji Liqun was going mad.

This guy simply wouldn't listen to reason.

"Very well, then!" Liu Qinghe laughed in furious rage.

Since the day he became a Martial Artist, everyone he met had bowed and scraped before him.

This young man was courting death.

"Su Yi, even at death's door, you're still defiant..."

Ji Liqun sneered aloud.

"Shut up."

Su Yi frowned and swung his hand, slapping him across the face.

Slap!

Ji Liqun tumbled to the ground.

"You beast!"

"Master Liu, kill him!!!"

Struggling to his feet, Ji Liqun pointed at Su Yi and bellowed.

He had thought that with a Martial Artist like Master Liu present, Su Yi would be cautious and restrained.

But he never expected that under these circumstances, Su Yi would dare to make a move.

"Young man, too much rigidity leads to breakage."

"I see you have talent. Why not take me as your mentor? If I were to guide you for some time, I assure you, your future would be limitless."

What?

The crowd was dumbfounded.

Had this master taken a shine to possessing talent?

A glint of light flashed in Su Yi's eyes as he naturally activated the "Insightful Gaze".

In a flash, he understood that this man was lying!

He! He was intimidated!

While Su Yi didn't understand why a Martial Artist would act this way, he had no intention of passing up the opportunity to spar with a Martial Artist.

"What are you, to have the right to be my master?"

"If you're scared, kneel on the ground and kowtow three times to me. Perhaps I might let you off."

Su Yi slowly spoke.

The look in everyone's eyes was filled with astonishment.

Shouldn't these words be spoken by Master Liu himself?

And that's a Martial Artist!

Countless people would break their heads trying to become students to one.

This youngster was not only ungrateful, but he also insulted Master Liu.

He was really courting death!

Little did they know, Su Yi didn't speak falsely, as he was a descendant of the Su family's ancient forebear.

In ancient times, that person was a remarkable and stunning figure, skilled in both medicine and martial arts, renowned throughout the world.

Moreover, not all Martial Artists were equal, and they were not as godlike as the populace believed.

Based on the inheritance Su Yi received, this person was likely only a recent entrant into the Martial Realm, at the level of external strength.

The inheritance records state that external strength is merely the entry stage for a Martial Artist, mainly about excavating the potential of the body.

At its peak, one's punch can shatter stones, indeed powerful.

What comes after is the stage of internal strength. It can be said that only at this stage does one truly become a Martial Artist.

This stage emphasizes internal strength, similar to how a healer's qi leaks outward.

A healer takes a shortcut, bypassing the realm of external strength, cultivating inner breath over many years until the phenomenon of qi emission occurs.

Its strength naturally cannot compare to a Martial Artist's internal strength.

Therefore, the qi emission that Su Yi displayed earlier had indeed shocked the healers.

```

```

The reason was that this method required the polish of time, and Su Yi was still so young.

Little did they know, the aura he manifested was actually inner strength.

"Very well, very well, very well!"

"I'm indeed curious to see just how much weight you can pull."

Liu Qinghe's complexion was extremely grim; his years were evident, vital energy depleted, his peak long past.

Moreover, fighting a young person, even if he won, would do little for his reputation.

So he wanted to take Su Yi as a disciple and have everything settled.

The problem was, this young man showed him no respect at all.

In front of everyone, he had no choice but to make a move.

"Die!"

With a low growl, he swung his palm forcefully at Su Yi.

Su Yi snorted coldly and countered.

After all, he was a seasoned expert, like multiple phantoms, arriving in front of Su Yi in the blink of an eye.

His speed was truly at its limit.

The onlookers were stunned, unable to catch a glimpse of Master Liu's movements with their eyes.

This kind of spectacle was something they'd only seen in movies.

Only now did they realize that the power of a martial artist was even more terrifying than they had imagined.

Su Yi narrowed his eyes, a gleam flashing through them now and then.

Under the gaze of the Watching Technique, Master Liu's speed was greatly reduced. To Su Yi, it was hardly worth mentioning.

The next moment, Su Yi roared and leaped forward.

Their figures interweaved, punches landing on flesh, each blow with a heavy thump.

The crowd watched in dizzying confusion, as if observing two specters.

"Hmph, arrogant fool, the master will teach you how to behave."

"Life not worth sparing."

On the side, a few people murmured quietly, obviously trying to ingratiate themselves with the Chen Family.

But inside, they were astonished.

They had not expected Su Yi, so young, to not only be a grandmaster in medicine but also so profoundly skilled in martial arts.

Lucky that Master Liu was about to kill him today; otherwise, as he grew, who could be his match?

Wu Hongwei clenched his fists, his heart in his throat.

Everything now was beyond his control.

But his heart was filled with guilt.

If he hadn't invited Su Yi to the banquet, this medical genius wouldn't have encountered this trouble.

It seemed likely that he would die on the spot.

The power of a martial artist, he knew a bit about.

He had seen some videos of the Li Family's annihilation.

That figure, he still vividly remembered.

One punch would bring down a wall with a crash.

The power was more terrifying than a bomb.

Bang!

All of a sudden, a loud boom followed, and a figure staggered several steps, slamming hard against the wall of the private room.

The entire room seemed to tremble, showing the enormity of the force.

"How is this possible!"

The people around widened their eyes, exclaiming in shock.

The one who hit the wall was Liu Qinghe.

This was a genuine martial artist!

The superhuman being who annihilated the Li Family.

Could he have been defeated?

For a moment, the faces of those around were ashen.

This young man had already made a name for himself; would he spare them in the future?

"Is this all you've got?"

"Too weak."

Su Yi gave Liu Qinghe a look, a slight shake of his head showing his disappointment.

It wasn't a deliberate show of contempt, but his genuine thoughts.

He had believed Liu Qinghe to be a martial artist and wanted to test his own skills. To his surprise, Liu Qinghe was so weak…

"You!"

Spurt!

Chen Qinghe, who was struggling to stand up, spit out a mouthful of blood when he heard those words.

"Master."

A young man hurried over to assist Liu Qinghe.

"My master has recently fought with a vicious enemy and is severly injured. Otherwise, you would have been slapped to death by now."

Upon hearing this, everyone felt relieved. It turned out he was injured, which explained his poor performance.

However, Su Yi just curled his lip and waved his hand dismissively.

"A loss is a loss, and yet you search for excuses?"

"Same as before, kneel and you can live, otherwise, die!"

Su Yi's tone, although calm, carried an unequivocal chill, leaving no one to doubt his seriousness.

"You…"

Just as Liu Qinghe was about to speak, he seemed to remember something and his expression darkened like still water.

"Master, you must not kneel! I'll fight him."

The young man roared with rage.

However.

Thump!

Master Liu knelt down.

This…

The young man stood there dumbfounded, his gaze fixed on his master.

Everyone around was shocked, staring disbelievingly at the scene.

This was a bona fide martial artist!

Someone who could obliterate a super family with a mere gesture.

His word could drive countless families and powers to madness.

And now, he was kneeling before a young man!

What a colossal contrast!

Thump, thump, thump!

At that moment, rapid footsteps sounded from outside.

"Master Liu… Master Liu, I'm late, please forgive my error."

"That disgraceful descendant, I will surely bring his head to the Chen Family."

"Please spare me, Master Liu."

Lin Batian yelled as he rushed in, panting heavily.

But as soon as he entered, he trembled and froze like a statue.
