Everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice in shock when they heard the person say it out loud.Quin walked out slowly from the crowd.Bianca did not expect her to object so publicly, and the look on her face changed. “Quinn, you…”“I’m sorry, Bianca.”Quinn looked at her apologetically and said, “I know this is wrong of me, but I have to object to this.”“Why?” Bianca looked upset as she questioned Quinn.She liked Chase, and Quinn knew it. Quinn had even told her before that she had no interest in Chase.Yet, now she was objecting to their marriage. It made Bianca sad and angry.Quinn did not reply to her but turned to look at Chase. “Can I speak to you in private, Chase?”He saw the pleading look in her eyes, so he nodded. “Sure.”Chase and Quinn walked out of the manor under everyone’s gaze.When Chase saw that they were alone, he asked, “What did you want to talk to me about?”Quinn turned back to look at him with mixed emotions. She bit her lip gently and s
The most excited among them was Edward.Chase was a stupid man. He actually turned down a chance at climbing up the social hierarchy.The woman he turned down was Bianca Cooper, the dream girl of many men.From his point of view, Chase had already offended the Coopers by rejecting them. It would be difficult for him to continue staying in South River City.It did not matter if Chase was the Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate. He was just a doctor. How could he fight against a wealthy and influential family?Quinn gave a guilty glance at Bianca and asked, “Can we leave now, Chase?”“Let’s go.”Chase nodded. He left Cooper Manor along with Bianca.Meanwhile, in a black bus situated in the suburbs of South River City, many passengers were crouched on the floor with their hands over their heads. They were looking at three men and a woman in front of them fearfully.The men and the woman were searching everyone’s bodies for anything valuable. They even pulled out the gold teeth of the bu
Chase coughed and asked, “Err… Can you repeat that again? Who did you invite?”Rowan darted a look at him from the corners of his eyes and said impatiently, “Listen carefully to what I say. The person I invited here is the Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate.“Forget about it. Why am I even talking to you about an important man like him? He's not someone that you can meet easily anyway.”He grunted coldly. Rowan had not even looked at Chase since walking into the door.From what he perceived, this young man was probably just a new bodyguard Quinn had hired. He was not worth Rowan’s time at all.Chase rubbed his nose and shook his head in astonishment.He decided to let it be.Chase understood something right away.A fake Medical Saint had appeared, and the real one had been looked down on as a result.Quinn got anxious as she tried to explain, “Uncle Rowan…”Before she could say anything, Rowan’s phone rang.After he hung up, he said agitatedly, “Quinn, the Medical Saint of Hell’s
He was worried that the ‘miracle doctor’ would get upset, so Rowan quickly apologized, “Sir, this is my niece, Quinn Norris. Please forgive her for being rude.”“Uncle Rowan, he’s a fraud. You shouldn’t trust him. I’ve met the real Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate…”Quinn felt like she was about to go crazy.The ‘miracle doctor’ smiled and said calmly, “Miss Norris, are you talking about the one you perceive to be the real Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate, the same person who had attended the appreciation banquet?”“That’s right.” Quinn scoffed. She glanced subtly at Chase, who was standing by her side. She continued, “That’s why I know you’re not the real Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate.”The ‘miracle doctor’ smiled. “All of you have been deceived, Miss Norris. The truth is, the person who attended the Coopers’ appreciation banquet is the real fraud pretending to be me.”“My teacher is right.” The young man in the suit who was holding a bag sniggered and said, “My teacher doesn’t care abou
“Who are you, young man? How dare you stir up trouble here!” A Norris came forward and pointed at Chase while shouting.The others looked at Chase unhappily.Rowan frowned. “What do you mean, young man?”“I mean exactly what I said.”Chase pointed at the fake Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate and said arrogantly, “I’m the real Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate. That man is a fraud.”He said matter-of-factly.Everyone was taken aback.Where did this Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate come from?They took a good look at Chase and began sniggering.He was just a young man of about 20, but he was claiming to be the Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate. Did he think that they were stupid?The ‘Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate’ and Tom sniggered as well.As expected, Rowan’s face immediately fell. “Quinn, how did you train your bodyguard? How dare he spout nonsense like this here?”“Uncle Rowan, Chase isn’t spouting nonsense. He’s the real Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate,” Quinn bit her lip and said.“Are you
“This…”Tom took out pennant after pennant and explained the history of each one.Everyone had chills down their spines.This man was an expert healer, indeed!He had cured ordinary people and even saved the life of an old general in Capital City.Even Quinn was shocked, and a thought appeared in her head.Could this elderly man be the real Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate?That would make Chase…She was shocked by this thought and did not dare to think any further.Tom opened up a small red book at the end. “This is the medical license that was given to my teacher from Capital City’s Medical Association. There's also their stamp on it. Please take a look if you don’t believe it.”Everyone went forward quickly and saw the contents were just as he had described. The license had the words ‘Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate’ on it. “Hoho, I wonder if all these are enough to prove my identity?” ‘The Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate’ smiled and said with both hands behind his back.Rowan lo
Inside a deep forest in the suburbs of South River City, the thick scent of blood filled the air. The ground was covered with more than 20 dead bodies.It was apparent that a big fight had just happened here.Sam, who was in a general’s uniform, looked at the bodies on the ground and asked in a deep voice, “How many times has this happened?”“This is the seventh time, Mr. Collins,” a right-hand man of his said as he wiped the blood off his face and lowered his head at Sam.“The seventh time?!”“They’re all here for the Chief!”Sam mumbled in frustration. “Why did the Chief reveal his identity as the Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate? These people have been flooding into South River City crazily.“Even though the Chief doesn’t care about ants like you, I can’t tolerate any threat toward him!”Sam’s eyes narrowed, and there was coldness in his voice.His phone suddenly rang. After he was done with the call, a look appeared in his eyes. He snapped his fingers and said, “Prepare the
“That’s… just as well,” the ‘Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate’ said with a nod as he put up an unwilling look and relented.Tom was overjoyed and quickly prepared to make their escape.There was no way Chase would allow them to leave. He stopped them. “We haven’t even settled the issue of determining our true identities. What’s the rush in leaving?”“You…” The ‘Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate’ trembled, but no one knew if it was out of anger or fear.“Let’s wait a little longer. Sam Collins is about to arrive soon,” Chase said with a smile.The faces of both the ‘Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate’ and Tom turned pale. Unfortunately for them, Chase refused to let them go, and they were not able to leave.Quinn could not take it any longer. She could not bear to see them that way. “Let them go, Chase. There's no need to make things difficult for an elderly man.”“I can’t let him go when he’s pretending to be me,” Chase said as he shook his head.Quinn frowned and said, “Do you really want to
Despite his recent breakthrough, Chase's attention was drawn elsewhere. He was more concerned that the corpse of the massive Ghost Boar had been completely devoured!Not just that, but three other Ghost Boar carcasses nearby had also been torn apart, likely taken down by someone else."Since I'm already here in this valley, I might as well take a look."Muttering to himself, Chase's figure flickered, and he rushed down from the hilltop in the next instant.One of the remaining Ghost Boars let out a violent roar the moment Chase appeared.His expression remained calm. With a swift motion, he swung his fist downward.A deep, muffled impact echoed.The Ghost Boar staggered backward with blood seeping from its mouth!Enraged, the Ghost Boar howled and charged straight at Chase, aiming to ram into him with its massive bulk.Chase's eyebrow twitched as he effortlessly dodged aside.Then, in one fluid motion, he leaped onto the boar's back, grabbing a fistful of its bristly mane bef
Chase lifted his leg and kicked a Ghost Boar into the air.On the other side, a towering Ghost Boar charged at him, its body covered in thick armor-like skin. Even for Chase, taking it down in one strike would not be easy."Get lost!" Chase snorted coldly, delivering a sharp palm strike to the boar's neck. He sliced it clean through, severing its entire arm!The Ghost Boar shrieked, stumbling away in agony. However, Chase chased it down, stepped on its tail, and twisted hard.A piercing wail echoed through the battlefield.Grabbing the boar's tail, Chase swung it into the ground, shaking the earth beneath them. At that moment, several more Ghost Boars approached, but this time, they halted their advance. Standing three feet away, they refused to take another step forward."What's this? You're afraid now?" Chase smirked.Despite his fierce battle, he had exhausted a great deal of energy. His true energy was nearly depleted. He needed to replenish it.One of the smaller, weaker G
"You're just a mere beast! Get lost!" Chase let out a sharp breath, kicking the Ghost Boar in the stomach.The boar let out a miserable shriek, its body hurtling dozens of feet away. It smashed through countless ancient trees before it finally came to a stop.Suddenly, from atop a small hill, a snow-white fox with wings sprouting from its back lunged toward Chase. Its presence was even more menacing than the Ghost Boar's, and its speed was terrifyingly fast.The moment it opened its mouth, razor-sharp teeth gleamed like knives, ready to tear him apart.It moved too fast! In the blink of an eye, it closed in on Chase, its fangs already aiming for his throat!Just then, a fair hand smacked down on the fox's head. With a single slap, Chase sent it soaring through the air! He felt a rush of excitement in his chest."What incredible strength!"This was the first time he had executed a martial technique.Yet even relying solely on his physical body, he could tell that he had grown tw
Chase had indeed spotted a treasure, but he also sensed the danger that came with it. He did not dare to act rashly, fearing that he would not be able to withstand its power and might lose his life instead."Heavenly treasures like this often contain immense energy fluctuations. This orb… It might help refine my true energy and strengthen my martial veins…""This brat… He's still alive?" Just as the warrior was about to continue his hunt, he was stunned to see the supposedly unconscious Chase slowly getting back on his feet, staggering toward him."You're still standing?" His brows furrowed in surprise before his expression turned cold."Well, since you survived, I'll use you as a sacrifice!"Before the words even fully left his mouth, his steel whip lashed out, streaking through the air like a venomous serpent, striking straight at Chase's throat!"You're courting death."Chase let out a cold laugh, his hand shooting out to seize the whip. With a forceful yank, he sent the warr
Suddenly, a terrified howl echoed from deep within the forest. A white blur shot out from the trees, fleeing in panic. It was a gray wolf—one of the jungle's fastest predators.The moment Chase saw it, his expression shifted sharply. Without hesitation, he activated Wind Stride, his figure flickering as he dodged the incoming attack from the wolf beast.The young warrior riding the panther beast caught sight of the commotion by the riverbank. His gaze sharpened."A stray mutt dares to steal my food?"He spurred his mount forward, raising his arm. His spear lunged forward like a venomous serpent, streaking toward the riverbank."Get lost!"Chase's heart pounded. With no time to think, he clenched his iron fists and swung with all his strength.The spear snapped in two. A sharp, numbing pain shot up Chase's arm as his palm was torn open with blood dripping from his fingers.The mounted warrior smirked, his lips curling with mockery."A mere mortal dares to challenge my spear?" H
"Such immense power!"Chase was shocked.The icy force radiating from the lady was far stronger than anything an ordinary martial god-level expert could unleash. It was so overwhelming that his body could barely withstand it.Yet he refused to retreat.He sensed that this cold energy was tempering his body, strengthening him in ways he had not anticipated. Most importantly, it provided a perfect contrast—he needed an abundance of light energy to harden his essence and refine his martial spirit."Break!"With a furious roar, Chase ignited his true energy, sending it surging through his veins and meridians.A wave of scorching power erupted from within, forcefully expelling the icy force from his body. A thin layer of frost coated his skin but melted away in an instant."As expected of a martial nirvana-level martial technique… It's incredibly powerful!"Chase was thrilled.This secret art was astonishingly effective. If he trained with it consistently, his body would transform
The moment Chase swallowed the spiritual fruit, it should have been absorbed and neutralized by his body's energy. Yet the instant it entered his stomach, an unbearable wave of heat surged through him.His blood boiled, and his entire body felt as if it were roasting inside a furnace. He was in such excruciating pain that he could not even call for help.Had his constitution not been extraordinary, the sheer explosive force of this single fruit would have been enough to kill him dozens of times over."That was too close!" Chase let out a sigh of relief.This spiritual fruit contained a potent toxin—he had nearly died just now.It was called the Crimson Gold Poison Fruit, and once ingested, not even a martial god could survive."Well, at least this saved me some trouble. Who knows what other monsters might be lurking beneath these waters?"He stood up and circulated his true energy, using it to dry his soaked clothes.As his legs remained submerged in the lake, a bronze-colored
At that moment, a golden glow flickered within Chase's storage ring.A small, round pearl, no larger than a thumb, emerged and floated into his palm."A Dragon Pearl?"Chase frowned. The Dragon Pearl was entirely golden as if forged from pure gold. Inside, a miniature flood dragon's silhouette seemed to coil and shift."How did this Dragon Pearl end up in my storage ring?"He hesitated for a moment before realization struck."It must have been absorbed when I killed that flood python. The energy wave must have drawn out the essence of its body, making this pearl emerge on its own."Since the Dragon Pearl had already appeared, it meant the flood python's flesh and blood essence had been completely exhausted, leaving no more hidden treasures to extract.Even so, Chase did not leave immediately. He cautiously scanned the area, ensuring there were no lurking dangers. Only after confirming his safety did he dive into the dark waters below.Beneath the surface, a school of fish sens
Chase's figure glinted in the air as he evaded the attack of the venom. He reached out and grabbed a Ganoderma in his hand.The Ganoderma was light green and had a soft fragrance.Chase sniffed it and was immediately refreshed and energized. He felt great all over."This Ganoderma is really effective!" Chase's eyes brightened.He continued punching with both fists and exerted great strength as he attacked wildly.An explosion was heard as Chase swept a kick that struck the python on the abdomen.There was a loud bang, and the sound of bones cracking was heard. This massive creature had been beaten to a pulp by Chase.Chase breathed heavily as he turned to look at the black-striped crocodile.This crocodile was harder to deal with compared to the python. Even though Chase could easily beat back this ferocious beast, he would not be able to kill it."Looks like I need to use an ultimate technique…"Chase slowly closed his eyes. A technique appeared in his mind as he channeled t
