If not for the sharpness coming from Huo Shan’s gaze, most would just mistake him for an ordinary old man.
At that moment, everyone was watching Huo Shan respectfully. He had been well known for several decades. In terms of seniority, he was ranked much higher than the master of those great families. Although he looked to be in his sixties, he was definitely over eighty years of age!
Martial artists could keep themselves in their peak condition so it was normal for them to appear younger.
Ever since Huo Shan became the great elder of the Mo family, he had almost retired from the scene and hardly took any more matters into his hands. They never expected him to personally attend to this matter.
“Half-step innate stage!” someone exclaimed in a trembling voice after swallowing hard.
The Mo family was undoubtedly the strongest of the great families. The biggest reason was because Huo Shan—a great expert—was in their family.
The world of martial artists was beyond that of regular folks. There were sayings where the economic foundation decided a society’s superstructure. Meanwhile, in the world of martial arts, physical prowess decides economic strength!
Out of a hundred martial artists, one might find an inner force martial artist. Out of a hundred inner force martial artists, one might find one who mastered the inner force. As for those who went beyond the inner force stage, they were rare enough to be considered legends!
Putting aside those that went beyond the inner force stage, just being able to master inner force would ensure one was treasured by the great families. Ye Lingchen’s status in the Warrior’s department and the great families’ attitude toward Ali showed the importance they placed on strength.
If one could transcend beyond inner force, that person would rule over a region and was capable of leading a family.
Ye Lingchen was similarly observing the old man. His brows twitched lightly. He noticed that the old man was able to control the spiritual energy in the air while he was positioning himself. Although it was minor, he still managed to control it nonetheless. Using the spiritual energy in the air would naturally greatly boost his power.
The Kungfu he practiced should be focused on the legs.
Huo Shan stood in the middle and made a statement calmly without looking at any of them, “Miracle Doctor Y killed Black Tiger from my Mo family. I’m taking him away. Any dissents?”
Everyone kept quiet as their gaze flitted about. Su Tianhong’s expression turned into an indignant one.
Although the masters of the great families were on par with Huo shan, they were afraid of collateral damage and did not want to be the first to act. Add to that their fear of the Mo family, they decided to maintain their silence.
After that, Huo Shan looked at Ye Lingchen. “Our Mo family is the greatest family in the Sichuan-Tibet region. All these years, those who came to have their medicine reviewed by the International Medical Association could not even manage to strike a deal with our family. It’s your honor to be chosen by us!”
“Hehe, look at that tone! Are you saying that I should obediently hand this formula over?” Ye Lingchen could not resist a snicker.
“Of course. However, it’s too late to admit your mistake now!” Huo Shan laughed arrogantly. He then said in a cold tone, “Your bodyguard is quite strong. His endurance training is almost at the grandmaster level. However, he’s not sufficient for you to look down on us. He’s nothing but a clown to our Mo family.”
“We’re not like the cowardly Su family. Since you killed Black Tiger, our Mo family will hunt you down regardless of your worth! Hand over the formula and I’ll let you die a quick death.”
Just as he finished, he strode forward. To the crowd, gravity seemed to not affect him. In fact, they felt as though his feet never touched the ground.
Beneath his feet, the air current formed ripples. Those ripples were undetectable. If one compared carefully, they would realize that it was much more solid than inner force; sharp as a blade. For a moment, the ripple snapped right at Ali!
Those rippled were formed by the air itself. It was almost invisible and did not seem to carry any force behind it. However, along its path, the grass on the ground was silently cut in half as though a sharp whip was passing through.
Without any warning, Ye Lingchen quickly pulled Ali to his side.
Whoosh!

The air current brushed by his side and landed on the tree behind him. The entire tree was seemingly cut in half by an exceptionally sharp blade and fell to the ground!
Only then did the crowd realize what had happened, looking at Huo Shan fearfully.
“T-t-that’s Huo Shan’s Soaring Wind Kick!?” someone gasped.
Huo Shan was just simply walking, yet he could silently activate an attack with such terrifying force. If that air current were to land on someone’s body, that person might just be cut cleanly in half.
Soaring Wind Kick was Huo Shan’s famous technique. They did not expect to see that after 10 years. Moreover, its power was even greater than the legends.
That leg technique allowed someone to run in the air at extreme speeds. Moreover, one could utilize the air currents to launch their attacks or turn their legs into razor-sharp blades. It had terrifying speed and attack power.
Right off the bat, the Mo family’s great elder kept Ali suppressed, and also intimidated the others from the great families.
Seeing Ali managing to avoid his attack, Huo Shan raised his eyebrows. His expression remained unchanged and thought that Ali was just lucky.
Meanwhile, Ali was spooked. If not for Ye Lingchen pulling him aside, his legs would have suffered serious damage even if he survived.
He then quietly retreated behind Ye Lingchen, losing the will to fight.
“Young master, I can’t take it anymore.” Although he loved to fight, he knew how to read the situation and quickly hid behind Ye Lingchen without care.
‘This bodyguard…’
Ali’s sturdy image in their minds was immediately ruined, surprising everyone.
None of them expected the expert who took all the hits for Ye Lingchen to chicken out just like that without any hesitation. In fact, he even hid behind his young master’s back. That was not the behavior of a qualified bodyguard.
“Hehe, Miracle Doctor Y, your bodyguard is unreliable.” Huo Shan laughed mockingly and looked at him with a condescending gaze. “To be honest, your bodyguard is quite capable and wise. One should know when to be strong and when to submit. What about you?”
“L-L-Let’s make a run for it.”
Next to Ye Lingchen, Su Qingxue was scared witless. Her petite body shivering. Huo Shan’s strength caused this university student’s mind to go blank. She could not comprehend what was going on.
“Run? Why should we run?” Ye Lingchen asked in a calm voice.
“Your bodyguard can’t hold out anymore.” Su Qingxue could not understand Ye Lingchen’s rationale. Blood drained from her face as she urged, “The Mo family does not care for the law. They’ll surely kill you!”
“That’s fine.” Ye Lingchen waved casually.
‘F*ck!’
Su Qingxue was stunned, agitated beyond words.
Even Su Tianhong looked at Ye Lingchen in disbelief.
With his bodyguard, he could act tough. Now that the bodyguard was no longer able to protect him, how could this guy keep up the tough guy act?
Anyone could see the severity of the situation. That was a good time to run. Just what was that guy thinking? Could he be thinking of handling this all by himself? How?
