Chapter 7

Author: Shrimp in Trouble Waters
“Huh?”

Quinn and Elaine were taken aback at first, but they later laughed out loud in unison.

“I didn’t hear that wrong, did I, Collins? You’re saying that you live here?”

Elaine laughed in great exaggeration. “Do you know how much a villa is worth here? It can easily go up to 30 or 40 million. A bumpkin like you can work hard your entire life and you won’t even be able to afford a bathroom here.”

“Oh, I can’t take it anymore. You’re making me laugh too hard.”

Her hands were clasping on her tummy, and she could not stop laughing.

Quinn had an angry smile on her face. “Tell me, which is your house?”

“It’s at the peak. I think it’s called Imperial Dragon Bay Villa No. 1 or something,” Chase replied casually.

Quinn laughed sardonically.

If he had mentioned another random villa, she might have believed him.

However, Imperial Dragon Bay Villa No.1 was the address of the Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate. Why would this country bumpkin be staying there?

She looked at Chase sympathetically. “Chase Collins, do you have any idea what a clown you are right now to me? You’re making me dislike you even more.”

“It’s up to you whether to believe me or not.” Chase shrugged and turned to walk away. He was not bothered to argue with them.

“You should leave before security discovers you. The consequences would be dire if you get caught.”

Quinn got Elaine to continue driving up the hill after saying this to Chase.

When they arrived at the villa on the peak, Quinn gently pressed on the doorbell. “Mr. Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate, I’m Miss Norris from the Norrises of South River City. I’m here to ask for your help to save my grandfather…”

She spoke for a long time, but there was no reaction from inside the villa.

“Miss Norris, I think he must have gone out. Why don’t we come back another day?” Elaine could not help saying.

“That’s all we can do for now,” Quinn sighed. They got into the Bentley and drove back the way they came.

Quinn stared at the road on their way back but did not see any sign of Chase.

She grunted coldly. “Looks like he really did sneak in. He must have left quietly because he was worried he would be caught by the security guards.

“We have to see the Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate as soon as possible and get him to cure Grandpa. That way, I can be rid of Chase Collins.”

Meanwhile, Chase had arrived at the peak by hiking up through the forest path.

He looked at the luxurious villa in front of him and nodded with satisfaction. “At least that old man is nice enough to give me such an extravagant mansion.”

That was when Henry called him on the phone. “Chase, remember to go to the hospital to conduct a medical check-up. You need it for the interview at Riley’s company tomorrow.”

“Got it.” Chase hung up, and after that, he headed to the hospital for a medical check-up.

As the medical report required at least one hour to be prepared, Chase decided to walk around the hospital as he was bored.

When he passed by a hospital room, he heard heartbreaking sobs coming from inside.

An old man was lying unconscious on his hospital bed. He looked like he was hardly breathing.

His bed was surrounded by men and women who were dressed well. All of them were looking at the old man sadly.

“Doctor Strickland, is there really no hope for my grandfather?”

A young woman of about 20 asked. Her eyes were red. “Even if it’s three hours more of seeing him alive, we’d be happy enough.”

The old man lying in bed was the rock of the Coopers. A huge calamity would befall the Coopers if anything happened to him. If he had three hours more to live, he would be able to settle many issues.

Dr. Strickland, who was an elderly man in a suit, sighed. “It’s already too late. Some things can’t be changed.”

“The elderly Mr. Cooper served the country in the war when he was younger and was left with many injuries from the bloody fights. His old wounds worked up, causing his organs to fail. His time is up. I can’t help him anymore. Even the legendary Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate won’t be able to save him.”

Everyone began wiping their tears off their faces when they heard this.

A snort of laughter was suddenly heard at the door. “Just because you can’t do anything doesn’t mean that others can’t. What right do you have to judge the abilities of the Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate?”

    Everyone looked toward the voice’s direction and saw Chase standing at the door.“Who are you, young man?” Dr. Strickland’s face fell as he asked unhappily.“You don’t need to know who I am."Chase took a step forward and sniggered. “The old man in bed has two years more to live, but you’re claiming his time is up. That’s disregard for human life.”A stranger’s death had nothing to do with Chase, but this person had belittled the old man, and Chase had to do something about it.It was because Chase’s master had gone by the moniker of ‘The Medical Saint of Hell’s Gate’ when he was traveling the world, and Chase had inherited this title. He had the responsibility of defending the honor of this title.Dr. Strickland was enraged to hear Chase claim that he was disregarding human life. “What did you just say, you rascal?”Everyone turned to look at Chase coldly.The doctor’s name was Elijah Strickland, and he came from a family that had been in the medical industry for hundreds of y

    A silver light flashed in his hand, and seven silver needles appeared.“Go!”Chase waved his arm, and the seven silver needles pierced into seven acupoints on the old man.Dr. Strickland was startled by this and exclaimed, “Did… Did you just move the needles through the void?!”After the seven needles pierced into the old man’s acupoints, a white light suddenly flashed from them, and the needles formed into the alignment of the Big Dipper. It was dazzling, looking like the starry sky.“Inscription for 10,000 years on your back, inscription for the seven stars on your chest. The Grim Reaper welcomes you now, but I can keep you here with us.“Awaken! If not now, when?!”Chase chanted those words. It sounded like they were the key to controlling life and death.The moment he finished the words, the old man on the bed who was supposed to be unconscious suddenly threw up blood that was black. After that, he began coughing violently.Everyone was silent.They were thunderstruck and

    That man had been telling the truth since the beginning. He really could save her grandfather.Unfortunately, she had treated him as a con man.An employee of the Cooper Corporation took a deep breath and said determinedly, “From now onward, every one of us will search for the whereabouts of this miracle doctor even if we have to overturn the entire South River City. Don’t come back without finding him!”The next morning, Henry called Chase again. “Where are you, Chase? Riley is taking you to her company for an interview. Give me your address and I’ll get her to pick you up.”“Alright, Uncle Henry.” Chase sent him the address for Imperial Dragon Bay Villa No.1.Downstairs at the Turner household, a young woman in a black, professional suit was standing next to a white Benz C260. She looked at the time and said impatiently, “Riley, that country bumpkin fiancé of yours isn’t respecting our time. We’ve been waiting for him for quite a while.”“Stop it, Anna. I’m already feeling frus

    Chase shook his head and replied, “I wasn’t the one who bought it.”“Huh?”The two women were surprised to hear that.Anna did not really believe him. “You sure keep a low profile, Mr. Collins.”She suddenly noticed the bag in Chase’s hand, and her eyes brightened. “Do you have cash in there, Mr. Collins? I always hear about how rich people like using cash.”Before Chase could say anything, she had taken a step forward to take the bag from him. She opened it and looked inside.Her face turned green instantly.There was no cash inside. The bag was filled with cans and mineral water bottles. It was dirty and smelled bad.“It's the garbage I just picked up,” Chase explained. He had no idea whether to laugh or cry at this situation.“Garbage you picked up?” Anna’s smile froze on her face.“That’s right.” Chase nodded.Anna’s expression fell immediately. “After all that confusion, you’re just here to pick up garbage?”She wiped her hands furiously with a paper napkin as she spok

    “What’s the rush? We’re about to become colleagues soon. It’s better to get to know each other first.”A cold look flashed in Edward’s eyes. He reached his hand out to Chase and bragged, “Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Edward Wright, the current manager of the Second Marketing Department. I’m Riley’s colleague and superior.”Chase noticed the malicious smile on Edward’s face and knew what was going on. Chase reached out his hand as well. He said with a stoic expression, “Chase Collins.”Raymond quietly got excited when he saw them shake hands.Edward was known to have an iron grip. Raymond had once shaken hands with Edward, and his fingers almost broke. He was in pain for three whole days, and Edward had gone easy on him.This country bumpkin was about to have a taste of that.When Chase and Edward shook hands, Chase felt a strong grip on his hand.He looked at Edward. There was a taunting and expectant look on Edward’s face.Edward wanted to humiliate Chase in front of Rile

    The woman quickly explained, “Mr. Collins, I’m the deputy CEO of La Fleur. My name is Sandy Lawson. You can just call me Sandy.“Our company had a shareholders' meeting yesterday, and Mr. Sam Collins from Emgrand Group announced that he has transferred 75% of the company’s shares to you. That would mean that you’re the biggest shareholder and our company’s CEO as of yesterday.“He has shared your photos and basic information with me and informed me to assist you in any way.”Chase replied, “Understood. I’m in the company right now. I’ll contact you if I need anything.”In the deputy CEO’s office, Sandy immediately called her secretary over after hanging up. She instructed, “The newly appointed CEO, Mr. Collins, has arrived at the company. "He's probably here on an unofficial visit. Inform all department heads immediately to watch their employees and display their best attitudes at work. I’m warning everyone here in advance. If Mr. Collins is unhappy with anyone, prepare to leave

    Harrison was enraged. “You’re the homosexual! Your entire family is full of homosexuals! Get out. Get out of this room right now.”Chase asked, “If you’re not a homosexual, why are you hiring based on horoscopes?”“For the sole reason that I’m the HR manager. Everything I say, goes. What can you do about it? Beat me up?” Harrison sneered and said gleefully.He was given a hard slap on the face the moment he said this.Harrison was in shock. He covered his cheek with his hand and looked at Chase in disbelief. “How… How dare you hit me?!”“Would you believe me if I told you that I can hit you and even fire you?” Chase said calmly.Harrison said viciously, “Fire me? You? Do you think you’re our new CEO? You’re finished for hitting me. Just wait!”He took out his phone with another word and made a call. “Carlton, send a few security guards over to my office. Someone is making trouble here.”Five tall, muscular men in uniform rushed into the room not long after.“This is the rascal

    “Five minutes and 20 seconds…” Chase looked at Sandy coolly. “You’re late.”“I apologize, Mr. Collins.” Sandy felt a chill in her heart.There was dead silence in the room.Sandy’s actions shocked everyone present.Harrison’s eyes widened.Sandy was the company’s deputy CEO. Her position was second to only the CEO.Wait…What did she call that rascal?M-Mr. Collins.That was when Harrison shivered. He fell weakly to the ground and looked at Chase in disbelief. “You… You’re the newly appointed CEO, Mr. Collins?”Barrett and the others were paralyzed by fear when they heard this. They started trembling as well.Chase crossed his legs and smiled at him to say, “Do you still remember what I told you? I can hit you and even fire you. Do you believe me now?”Harrison was stunned to hear that. He immediately began slapping himself. “I’m… I’m sorry, Mr. Collins. It was my fault for acting arrogantly, I was wrong…”He never imagined that the person his nephew wanted to give trouble

    "I'll continue slaughtering!" Chase stood up once more.Meanwhile, the Flood Dragon had recovered. It roared and lunged toward Chase with terrifying power.This time, Chase's body quivered slightly, but he still managed to block the dragon's attack."Not bad. There's thick dragon energy in this Flood Dragon's flesh and blood. If I use it to refine pills, the effects would be incredible!"Chase was excited about this. It was the same delight he felt when discovering a spiritual herb. It was due to hunting a dragon and obtaining its energy.There was a deafening explosion.Chase rode on the dragon's neck while inside the valley. He had a sword in his left hand while his right hand was clenched into a fist. He was using all of the skills and techniques he had learned.Chase punched the dragon right in its eyes.The dragon was filled with pain as it threw its head in the air and howled in misery. Meanwhile, Chase swung a punch with his other hand and struck the dragon right in the

    The Flood Dragon howled with pain. A piece of scale on its head was indented. It was almost crushed."Looks like the strength of a Flood Dragon's physique exceeds the limitations of an ordinary martial artist. Otherwise, I would've crushed half its head with one punch."Chase's eyes narrowed with a cold look in them. "But this Flood Dragon is too big. It's perfect for training! Die!" He roared and lunged at the dragon again.Man and creature collided. Chase continued forward to attack. His fists punched the dragon again and again.Every punch rang with a loud metallic clang. Chase punched harder and harder as he fought wilder and wilder."What sort of martial arts technique is that?"The dragon began to sense danger and turned to escape."Where do you think you're going?!"Chase grunted coldly and stepped on the ground as he leaped into the air like an agile monkey. He landed right on the dragon's back."Time for you to get down!"Chase growled as he grabbed hard on the drago

    "We should team up to kill that little bastard no matter what price we have to pay!"The three remaining middle-aged men suddenly stood up. Murder was in the air."No. He isn't our target. Our target is the Flood Python. We shouldn't cross that man if he's still alive." The old man tried to stop them."Damn it!"Everyone was unhappy about this but they also knew that if Chase was still alive and they approached him, it would only incur his wrath. Things would get complicated if that happened."Forget about it. We should let that little bastard be. Once we get our hands on that Flood Python, we'll tear him apart," the young man in extravagant clothes said unhappily."He's right. We can't let that little bastard leave the lake alive.""I don't believe an ordinary man can survive that lake. He must have sunk deep inside and drowned.""We'll wait until tomorrow to get that python and take its crystal core!""Let's go!" Everyone left the cave after discussing this. They continued

    "No wonder they're an ancient lost species. They have powerful bloodlines. My power is just enough to stab this snake, but I was able to destroy the defenses of this lizard with eagle claws."Chase frowned. The bloodline of these monsters was too powerful. If it were not for the help of mystical powers, he would have lost if he had relied only on his cultivation and physique."If that's the way this is, I'll use the opportunity to improve my sword technique…"The look in Chase's eyes turned cold. His mental energy condensed into a sword aura that instantly chopped off the head of the snake.As for the eagle-clawed lizard, it tried to struggle for its life. Even though its abdomen had a hole in it, it tried to fight back stubbornly and refused to die. It even tried to escape by running into the lake to hide.However, Chase did not let the lizard have its way.Chase took a breath to swallow true energy. The lake was instantly filled with true energy that surged and boiled wildly. I

    Chase's eyes widened. He knew he was no match for this enemy.Even with his current stamina, he could only explode with a maximum strength equivalent to the weight of six thousand pounds. That middle-aged man could punch through a house with one move. If they got into close combat, Chase was bound to lose."How dare you barge into this forbidden land?"The middle-aged man spoke coldly. He glanced at the corpse and blood on the ground and immediately understood what had transpired. "I'd advise you to leave right away or you'll be sure to die."Chase laughed tauntingly."You're asking for it!" The middle-aged man was enraged. He suddenly made a move and lunged forward to kill Chase.However, a bright red sword slashed through the air as it aimed for the man's throat. The man frowned and reached out to grab the blade of the sword, causing sparks to fly everywhere.The man sensed a horrifying attack on him. His hand was torn and was almost dislocated."Your physique is extraordinar

    "Oh no! I must've gotten poisoned!"Chase looked grim and quickly sat cross-legged on the ground as he began channeling his skills to stop the poison from spreading.Chase's clothes ruffled despite it being a windless day. He closed his eyes and focused his mind to meditate. He was attempting to communicate with the innate golden elixir.However, he was shocked to discover that everything he did helped nothing.He was like a statue as he maintained the pose for one hour. However, nothing happened during that time. Nothing unusual happened at all."What's going on?"Chase opened his eyes. He was bewildered as he mumbled, "True energy is the source of power for martial artists. Why am I unable to connect to it?"He looked away at a distance. The pretty man had vanished. Chase sighed."Looks like I can only give up cultivating for now."Chase could only rely on consuming normal food to maintain his life. He had to do this for quite a while. However, it was better than going hungr

    "You're dead!"The pretty young man looked sullen. With an angry roar, his spear reverberated in the air. It kept buzzing as if gearing to tear a wound through the air and stab right into Chase's heart.However, Chase did not budge. He clenched his fist and punched out hard with a loud bang. The spear was immediately bent like a bow and began to break apart inch by inch. The spear had now turned to garbage."What?!" The man's eyes widened with shock.He never thought that his precious spear would be destroyed with one punch."Do you still think you're powerful?"Chase shook his head. "You're nothing in my eyes. I can kill you with one finger!"He swung another punch while speaking. He was so fast that his punch created a strong wind.A scream echoed in the air as the man flew off from the impact. There was a deep, bloody dent on his chest. Blood kept gushing out of it. He looked absolutely pitiful."This man… He's a monster!"The man clenched his teeth and stared hatefully at

    Chase quickly raised his blade to block the attack.Both men's positions were swapped, and Chase was beaten back. His shirt was torn, and his muscled upper body was exposed."Are you stupid? Don't you know how to put on more clothes?!" The pretty young man attacked while shouting condescendingly.He came closer and closer to Chase. "Looks like this is all there is to you. Just surrender already."While he was speaking, the man twisted his wrist, and his black spear changed direction. It was now aimed at Chase's heart.There was a sharp whistle in the air when the spear stabbed forward. The air exploded from it.Such an attack would cause even a peak martial god to be instantly riddled with stabbing wounds.Chase grunted coldly before suddenly exploding with a roar. As true energy surged from his body, his muscles rippled and his physique expanded.Palm and fist collided to create a huge bang."Huh? How did your physique turn stronger?" The man was astonished. He was quite surp

    However, there was no green poisonous gas coming from his body. The gas was unable to reach Chase because he was able to shield himself with the lightning-protective energy.This series of battles only happened within a short time.It took only about half an hour for Chase to kill everyone and for the group to escape in a fluster.The sinister mist vanished from the valley and the Thousand Soul Ghost Tree remained quiet once more.However, Chase's brows furrowed deeper. He had seen a figure appear at the border of the valley. It was standing there with crossed arms and admiring the view in a carefree manner."You… You're not dead."It was a young man.He had beautiful features and was smiling. He was as pretty as a woman. At one point, Chase thought he had entered another different world."Huh?"The beautiful man turned to look at Chase with an astonished look. "You came out of this alive! This is where the Thousand Soul Ghost Tree resides. If you didn't die, that means you ha
