Urban Martial Arts System - Chapter 78
Chapter 78: Alchemist
“Wail of a defeated dog…” Zhou Ping shook his head.
“Unbelievable…” The woman who came in with Zhang Bufan screamed and rushed towards Zhou Ping.
Zhou Ping didn’t even bat an eyelid. The woman had just rushed two steps before she was taken down by a group of dignitaries eager to flatter him.
Zhou Ping took out his cell phone and made a call. Within a few minutes, several people hurried over.
“Take the two of them back and don’t let them run away.” Zhou Ping pointed to Zhang Bufan and the woman. After thinking about it, he walked to Zhang Bufan’s side and kicked them a few times. Zhang Bufan’s limbs cracked a few times, and his limbs went limp. Zhou Ping was still worried and kicked Zhang Bufan’s abdomen again. Zhang Bufan’s face paled, and he passed out.
“This not only removes Zhang Bufan’s limbs, but also abolishes Zhang Bufan’s martial arts.” The people around him gulped. For a martial artist, abolishing martial arts was more uncomfortable than killing him.
“Bring them back.” Zhou Ping waved his hands to the few people, and the few people respectfully bowed to him, carried Zhang Bufan and the woman, and quickly disappeared from the scene.
“Okay. It’s okay now. Everyone is gone.” Zhou Ping looked at the chilling crowd and took the lead and walked out. Xu Xiaoxuan and Huo Churou hurriedly followed Zhou Ping and walked out together.
“Zhou Ping, you…” Huo Churou looked at Zhou Ping and stopped talking.
“What?” Zhou Ping smiled at Huo Churou.
“How did you become so powerful?” Huo Churou looked at Zhou Ping and felt a little strange.
When Zhang Bufan struck before, he didn’t have any reservations. Huo Churou could easily tell that Zhang Bufan was already at the peak of a mortal. In ancient times, that was the existence second only to Zhang Sanfeng’s generation of masters.
“I’ve always been great, but you don’t believe it.” Zhou Ping didn’t stop.
Huo Churou changed the subject. “What are you going to do about the Hua family?
“Originally I thought it would be useless for you to know, but since you are so powerful, you must have a high status in the family. I think you could represent the Zhou family, so can you not do anything about the Hua family?”
“My status in the family has always been very high.” Zhou Ping remembered that at that time his third uncle had taught several families a lesson for him, and a warm feeling rose in his heart.
“As for the Hua family, I have said that the Zhang family is only coming for my Zhou family. I will take care of my Zhou family.” Zhou Ping’s firm tone made Huo Churou let out a sigh of relief.
“As long as your Zhou family is willing to take action, the other families will certainly not stand by,” Huo Churou said to Zhou Ping.
“Then you are wrong.” Zhou Ping shook his head.
“What? Your Zhou family is the head of the six big families. If the Zhou family makes a move, will other families sit idly?” Huo Churou said in disbelief.
“It’s not that simple.” Zhou Ping stopped and turned to look at Huo Churou.
“This time, the Zhang family made a sudden move. On the surface, it was dealing with the Hua family, but it was actually challenging the authority of the Zhou family. The purpose must be the Zhou family. The Zhang family is not an idiot and can challenge my Zhou family with confidence. There must be a hidden card. Before seeing the Zhang family’s hidden card, other families will not easily make a move.” Zhou Ping’s tone was very affirmative, and Huo Churou was startled.
“Indeed, I told my grandpa before, and my grandpa warned me not to intervene. I thought my grandpa was afraid that my Huo family would lose too much. It turned out that grandpa was waiting for Zhang family to show their cards.” Thinking of his grandpa’s attitude, Huo Churou felt bitterness.
“You are concerned and chaotic.” Huo Churou liked Hua Zhuyun, which was no secret among their classmates.
“Aping, don’t worry, at least my Xu family is definitely on your Zhou family’s side,” Xu Xiaoxuan said firmly.
“My grandfather often said that the Zhou family’s blood is half of the Xu family’s blood.” Zhou Ping reached out and touched Xu Xiaoxuan’s head. Xu Xiaoxuan did not pat Zhou Ping’s hand this time.
The old man of the Xu family and the old man of the Zhou family had a fateful friendship, and the relationship between them had already surpassed everything. If anyone in this world would always support the Zhou family, it was definitely the Xu family.
“Then what shall we do now?” Huo Churou asked in confusion.
“Prepare for the battle! As long as Zhang family dares to make another move, we will chop off Zhang Family’s paws.” Zhou Ping’s expression was sullen.
“I’ll go back now, and I must persuade Grandpa to stand by Zhou’s side.” Huo Churou looked resolute, turned, and left.
“Let’s go too.” Zhou Ping looked at Huo Churou’s back and smiled.
When Zhou Ping returned home, Elder Zhou and others had not yet come out of the secret room. Zhou Ping walked around and went to the dungeon.
A family of martial artists always had a dungeon. Walking into the dungeon, Zhou Ping saw Zhang Bufan locked in the jail with a gray face. Beside him, the woman was also locked.
“Go to the door and guard.” Waving to the people in the dungeon, they left the dungeon without hesitation.
“What are you doing? I have no use or value anymore.” Zhang Bufan opened his eyes, looked at Zhou Ping, and said weakly.
“How could an alchemist be worthless?” Zhou Ping moved a chair and sat in front of Zhang Bufan.
“Alchemist?” Zhang Bufan gave a wry smile. “Now that my dantian is abolished, how can I practice alchemy?”
“Dandian is abolished and it is impossible to recover. Who knows all the methods of the alchemist?” Zhou Ping shook his head. “There are countless treasures of heaven and earth in this world, and some of them are beyond our imagination. An alchemist is the most capable of creating miracles. However, it is only the dantian that has been abolished and not alchemy. Meaning, it is not without possibility of recovery.”
“Don’t coax me. If an alchemist has the means to restore his dantian, I still believe it. But a warrior…” Zhang Bufan shook his head.
“Do you think you have anything for me to coax?” Zhou Ping sneered, and then said, “Unfortunately, I just mastered the method of restoring dantian.”
“You?” Zhang Bufan suddenly raised his head to look at Zhou Ping.
“What do you want?” Staring at Zhou Ping fiercely, Zhang Bufan’s heart saw a glimmer of hope.
“Think about your alchemy and how you became an alchemist,” Zhou Ping said straightforwardly. “It’s not easy to become an alchemist! If you don’t have enough resources, even if someone gives pointers, you will not be able to successfully concoct a pill. As far as I know, your background is ordinary. Even if you have the ability to become an alchemist, there are fundamental resources needed to become an alchemist.”
“I don’t have the resources to become an alchemist, but my teacher has,” Zhang Bufan said.
“Your teacher?” Zhou Ping frowned.
“I don’t know how long it has been since alchemists disappeared. How could you still have a teacher? You’re lying to me?”
“I’m not lying to you.” Zhang Bufan shook his head repeatedly.
