Chapter 662 Outsider
"Xingchen?"
Hearing these two words, Chen Yang immediately thought of the Xingxiu martial artists he had encountered some time ago.
The cultivation techniques of Xingxiu martial artists were special, and perhaps one of them might have such characteristics. However, Zhu Wenwu's injuries were already very serious, and Chen Yang had no time to investigate whether this matter was related to Xingxiu cultivation techniques. He had to treat Zhu Wenyu's injuries quickly.
Time was pressing!
"Tian Zun, is there any way to save my father's injuries?"
During her time with Chen Yang, Zhuque had learned enough from his expression to discern some information.
Chen Yang's current expression indicated that the matter was very difficult to handle, and her father's injuries were likely in a very severe state.
"Don't worry, there will be a way. Zhuque, you go out first and don't let anyone else disturb us." Chen Yang said with forced calm, then sent Zhuque away and once again channeled his internal energy to investigate.
Hearing Chen Yang's words, Zhuque looked at Zhu Wenwu with some nervousness.
Finally, she could only walk out slowly.
After Chen Yang sent Zhuque out, he looked at Zhu Wenwu and said with a helpless expression, "Uncle, since Zhuque is not here, I'll tell you the truth. Your injuries have reached a critical point. If they cannot be treated during this period, there's a high possibility..."
Zhu Wenwu seemed to have already expected the answer Chen Yang gave. He nodded and smiled, "Don't worry, I've actually understood this for a long time. In fact, it was only recently that I broke through to the peak of the Grandmaster realm."
"If it weren't for this breakthrough, I probably wouldn't have lasted until today. I'm already very happy to see Zhuque before I die."
"It's just that I can't personally avenge the hatred from Zhuque's mother back then. You are the Medical Saint Tian Zun of the Heavenly Medical Hall. I don't have many requests. I only hope that you can protect Zhuque by your side, safe and sound."
"These Zhu family members, including my foolish brother, are all acting from the Zhu family's perspective, doing all this for the sake of the Zhu family. But I'm dying now, and I've thought it through. If I don't care for my daughter, who else will care about Zhuque?"
"You have been with Zhuque for all these years, and I believe in Zhuque's judgment!"
Zhu Wenwu had kept these words in his heart for more than a decade, never telling anyone.
But the Chen Yang in front of him was no longer an outsider.
In a sense, Zhu Wenwu was an outsider, and outsiders could see certain details more clearly.
Looking at the adoration in Chen Yang's eyes, as a father, Zhu Wenwu naturally saw it clearly.
"Uncle, rest assured, I will protect Zhuque well!"
As soon as Chen Yang finished speaking, he saw Zhu Wenwu turn his head and stare at him intently.
There was unwillingness in his eyes, but also a hint of compromise.
"I want more than just those words. I only have one daughter, and I can tell who my daughter likes!"
"Chen Yang, no matter what you think, you must not be unfair to my daughter!"
Zhu Wenwu's words sounded heartbreaking.
When he first came out of the ice cellar, Zhu Wenwu might have been able to live for some time, but the repeated exertion of his strength had made him feel that his lifespan was nearing its end.
As he faced death, Zhu Wenwu didn't know who Zhuque would have to rely on after he was gone.
Zhu Wenyu?
His brother had become obsessed with protecting the Zhu family, and no matter what, he would not be stopped.
If, one day, Zhuque's life conflicted with the safety of the Zhu family...
Zhu Wenwu didn't dare to think about what choice Zhu Wenyu would make.
As for others, there was no need to mention.
Although his sister Zhu Sha could also be entrusted with the task, Zhu Sha was married, and Zhu Wenwu did not want to bring her more trouble. It seemed that only the young man who had been living with Zhuque was the best person to entrust her to.
Zhu Wenwu took out a key from his waist pocket. "This is a safe deposit box I have at Bank of Modu. There are some things inside. You can take a look, but don't show them to Zhuque until you have a definitive answer."
Chen Yang wanted to take the key, but after thinking about it, he pushed it back.
Zhu Wenwu looked at Chen Yang, momentarily confused. What was this guy trying to do?
From Chen Yang's previous actions, Zhu Wenwu could see that Chen Yang actually cared about Zhuque; otherwise, he wouldn't have made such a choice.
But now...
Then, Zhu Wenwu saw Chen Yang show a wry smile. "Since it's something very important, I think it's better for you, Uncle, to hand it over to Zhuque personally."
"Although, judging by the current situation, your lifespan is indeed running out. But I am, after all, the Medical Saint Tian Zun of the Heavenly Medical Hall. I should at least show some of my skills, shouldn't I?"
Under Zhu Wenwu's dumbfounded gaze, the flame-like internal energy within Chen Yang suddenly disappeared, replaced by a force of cold water.
The moment this cold water-like internal energy entered Zhu Wenwu's body, Zhu Wenwu's entire body trembled. This coldness was not the bone-chilling coldness of a thousand-year-old ice cave, but a power like a gentle stream!
It moved within Zhu Wenwu's body, yet it was impossible to pinpoint its exact location!
"What are you trying to do?"
Zhu Wenwu only knew that the Heavenly Medical Hall seemed very powerful, but having lived in the ice cellar for so long, he didn't pay attention to external matters.
As for the Heavenly Medical Hall, it was something Zhu Wenyu had told him after he came out.
Medical Saint Tian Zun Chen Yang was not only a powerful martial artist but also at the pinnacle of medical skills in the world.
However, when he first saw Chen Yang, Zhu Wenwu was skeptical, not only of Chen Yang's cultivation level but also of his medical skills.
The reason was actually very simple: Chen Yang looked too young!
How could such a young person have the time to accumulate experience?
Not to mention, he was both a martial artist and a physician!
Although after the probing palm strike earlier, Zhu Wenwu was certain that Chen Yang was a talented martial artist.
However, when it came to medical skills, he couldn't help but doubt.
What powerful physicians in this world were not over a hundred years old?
What Zhu Wenwu didn't know was that the reason Chen Yang had so much experience was not only because he had a good master but also because, with the reputation of the Heavenly Medical Hall, the number of difficult and complex cases Chen Yang had dealt with was terrifying!
