Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife-Chapter 22 That’s All
The threat in his words was extremely potent.
Such blunt words made Xu Jianxiong’s old face burn with humiliation. "So, is Gate Master Jiang refusing to give us any face?" 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
"Not only am I refusing!" Jiang Tiannan sneered contemptuously. "If you don’t scram now, I won’t mind teaching you all a lesson too! Understood?"
"You... Arrogant!" Xu Jianxiong slammed the table and stood up. "Let me tell you, Jiang Tiannan, a starved camel is still bigger than a horse! Don’t think you’re so great!"
Jiang Tiannan revealed a cold smile. "If you want to fight me to the death, I don’t mind. The Xu Family is a juicy prize I’ve wanted to devour for a long time. Since you’ve delivered yourselves to my doorstep today, let’s just settle this once and for all!"
Xu Yanran rose gracefully, her voice cold and proud. "Gate Master Jiang, our Xu Family came to make peace with you as a gesture of goodwill. Don’t push your luck. Everything you rely on is nothing before me."
Jiang Tiannan’s dominance in Yuncheng City was built on his powerful Martial Dao cultivation, but coincidentally, her confidence also stemmed from her own formidable strength. After years of training abroad and countless missions with Dragon Soul, she was no longer the same Xu Yanran she once was. She now looked down on the people from a small place like Yuncheng City.
Jiang Tiannan laughed heartily. "I’ve long heard that Miss Xu is a phoenix among women, a Martial Dao genius. I, too, would like to see what you’re capable of!"
A thirst for battle gleamed in Jiang Tiannan’s eyes. He knew very well that the greatest threat the Xu Family posed to him now wasn’t Xu Jianxiong, but this low-profile second daughter, whose Martial Dao skills were not to be underestimated.
Xu Yanran shook her head proudly. "Although you may be a top expert in Yuncheng City, I, Xu Yanran, am no pushover."
Her primary purpose in coming here was to test Jiang Tiannan’s strength. As for helping the Luo Family resolve their problem, that was merely an unexpected coincidence.
Jiang Tiannan didn’t get angry, simply sneering, "Then come and try me."
Without hesitating, Xu Yanran twisted at her waist and shot forward like a startled rabbit. Her lithe body pounced like a nimble panther. As she threw a punch, the air tore with an explosive crack. Her momentum was as overwhelming as a tidal wave!
The men standing behind Jiang Tiannan flinched. No wonder this Xu Yanran was so arrogant; her first move had the bearing of a Grandmaster!
In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged seven or eight moves. The fierce gales from their clash whipped across the room, making everyone’s faces sting. Even the teacups on the table shattered from the overflowing Qi Force!
Although Xu Yanran was a woman, she unleashed ferocious attack power, forcing Jiang Tiannan back again and again, leaving him in constant peril. Clearly, she had the upper hand.
However, Chen Xiao narrowed his eyes. Xu Yanran’s aggressive assault giving her the upper hand was merely an illusion. Jiang Tiannan was obviously holding back, preserving his strength and waiting for her to reveal a flaw. But she, overconfident in her abilities, seemed completely unaware of this.
Seeing Xu Yanran steadily suppressing Jiang Tiannan, Xu Jianxiong took a sip of tea. A smug look appeared on his weathered face as he glanced sideways at Chen Xiao.
"See that? This is the confidence our Xu Family has, bringing you to the Jianghai Gang to negotiate. If it weren’t for my daughter, you’d likely have been killed by Jiang Tiannan."
"Look at my daughter, and then look at yourself. One is a paragon among men and women, the other is just a troublemaker... I really don’t know how Elder Luo could have been so blind as to let you be his grandson-in-law!"
Chen Xiao shook his head and chuckled. "You’re settling things for me? You should be grateful you brought me here today. Otherwise, you and your daughter would probably die here!"
Xu Jianxiong’s face darkened. "What do you mean by that?!"
Chen Xiao sneered. "Your daughter is indeed skilled, but compared to Jiang Tiannan, she lacks combat experience and is too eager for a quick victory. She’s guaranteed to lose within three moves!" He shook his head and sighed. "When that happens, do you think Jiang Tiannan will let you go?"
And here I thought the Xu Family actually had some spine. They’ve been putting on airs from the very beginning, and in the end, I’m the one who has to step in and save them!
"Scoundrel!" Xu Jianxiong cursed. "What do you know? Ungrateful whelp!"
In his view, his daughter already had victory in her grasp. How dare this guy make such snide remarks?
"In less than three moves, my daughter will take down Jiang Tiannan and make you eat your words..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Xu Yanran, who was still trading blows with Jiang Tiannan, suddenly staggered back. Jiang Tiannan seized the opening and unleashed a fierce flurry of attacks!
THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!
Defeated as decisively as a landslide, Xu Yanran was forced back before being sent flying with a single slap! The entire reversal, from complete advantage to utter defeat, took less than three seconds!
"How is this possible?!" Xu Jianxiong stood frozen in shock, his face a mask of disbelief. Xu Yanran lost?
As Xu Yanran’s body flew sideways, a sweet, coppery taste rose in her throat. Suddenly, a strong hand caught her, pulling her into an embrace. Her rescuer spun to absorb the force of the impact, allowing them to land steadily on their feet.
The moment she looked up in shock, she met Chen Xiao’s somewhat playful gaze.
Chen Xiao’s tone was teasing. "Looks like you overestimated yourself. I thought you were supposed to be impressive, but it turns out you’re nothing special."
"You!" A flash of anger crossed Xu Yanran’s beautiful face.
Before she could say more, Chen Xiao tossed her onto a nearby sofa. Then, his cold, indifferent eyes slowly locked onto Jiang Tiannan.
Jiang Tiannan’s tone was chilling. "Will you kneel and accept your death, or must I do it myself?"
Chen Xiao stood with his hands behind his back. "Kneel and beg for mercy, promise to never bother the Luo Family again, and I might spare your life."
