Peach Blossom Divine Medical God Chapter 2196 - 2152: Influential Origins

Li Zhan’s reflexes were still decent; he directly caught the Jade Token that Chen Yang had tossed over.

Looking carefully, he read, "Third District, three hundred and eighty‑second place."

Seeing the information on the Jade Token, Li Zhan’s pupils dilated; he was somewhat surprised.

But he wasn’t overly shocked.

Because on the way here, he had already more or less guessed it.

Someone who could deal with him and his son so decisively had to be from Cangnan Academy, or at least from some major power nearby.

"So you’re a powerhouse from Cangnan Academy. I’ve failed to welcome you from afar." Li Zhan respectfully offered the Jade Token back with both hands.

Chen Yang took it back.

"You know why we called you over, right?" Tu Qi also spoke up at this time.

"I know. My unworthy son is arrogant and overbearing, he’s offended the two great powerhouses here. He’s blind and deserves a beating. I should be thanking the two of you for disciplining him on my behalf." Li Zhan said with a very sincere attitude.

Hearing this, the anger in both Chen Yang and Tu Qi’s hearts eased a little.

No matter what kind of person this Li Zhan really was.

At least for now, his attitude was decent.

"Since you know your son is arrogant, why do you still indulge him in running around acting lawless?" Tu Qi continued.

"I’m usually busy and have neglected to discipline this beast. It wasn’t intentional. For what happened today, I admit fault on my son’s behalf. I hope the two great powerhouses can show mercy and spare his little life."

"Once we return, I’ll definitely strictly discipline him and make sure he truly mends his ways."

Li Zhan reacted very quickly; he didn’t even need to think about how to respond to Tu Qi. The words rolled right off his tongue.

And every sentence was appropriate, his attitude extremely sincere.

Seeing him like this, Chen Yang didn’t want to pursue the matter any further.

After all, they’d already given the lesson that needed giving; there was no need to keep holding on and not let go.

"Since you’ve said it like that, we’ll spare him this time. But if I discover something like this again in the future, your son’s life won’t be saved." Chen Yang said.

"Yes, yes, yes, thank you for your mercy. Once I return today, I’ll definitely give him a proper lesson and never let him come out to act so recklessly again." Hearing that Chen Yang was willing to relent, Li Zhan finally let out a breath of relief.

Earlier, although he had handled things with seeming ease, in truth his heart had been pounding the whole time.

"Mm, you can take your people and go. The losses to this shop will be borne by you alone. As for the person your son beat up, you know what to do, right?" Chen Yang nodded slightly, fairly satisfied with Li Zhan’s response.

Li Zhan lifted his head slightly to glance at the man lying heavily injured on the ground, then hurriedly nodded. "Please rest assured, I’ll definitely compensate him and do everything in my power to heal him."

"Mm, I’ll come back to check. If you haven’t done it, you’ll bear the consequences yourself."

Chen Yang nodded again, which counted as agreeing.

"Many thanks, great powerhouse."

The heart Li Zhan had been holding up finally settled completely.

He nodded, then ordered his men to take that Young Master Li away.

Along with him, they also carried away the man who had been beaten into serious injury.

As for the onlookers around them, they had long since been dispersed.

Once everything was handled properly, Li Zhan even invited Chen Yang and Tu Qi to stay at the Town Mansion.

But Chen Yang and Tu Qi refused.

"We’re on a mission; it’s not convenient to go over. Staying here is fine." Tu Qi declined.

"Mm... then if the two great powerhouses have any other orders, just send someone to summon me at any time. I will definitely see it done."

Seeing this, Li Zhan couldn’t say anything more.

Mm.

Chen Yang and Tu Qi slightly nodded, and then Li Zhan withdrew.

Chen Yang and Tu Qi followed the waiter upstairs to the second floor and returned to their rooms.

Downstairs.

After everything dispersed, the place became lively once more.

Everyone was scrambling to talk about it, chattering endlessly.

"I really didn’t expect those two youngsters to have such a big background. Our town chief seeing them was like a cat seeing a mouse."

"Really? They’re big shots from some powerful faction? No wonder they’re so formidable."

"That I don’t know, but their background is definitely huge. This time that bastard Young Master Li really kicked an iron plate."

...

The discussion downstairs was in full swing.

In the room upstairs, Chen Yang also brought up what had just happened with Tu Qi.

"That old geezer is really sharp. Once he saw us, he knew how to talk properly. Otherwise I’d have beaten the shit out of that father and son pair."

Thinking back on what had happened, Tu Qi still felt fired up.

That Young Master Li had been way too arrogant and overbearing.

For that kind of person, he wished he could chase him down and give him a few more kicks.

Chen Yang smiled slightly. "For him to sit in the town chief’s seat shows he’s not an idiot. That so‑called chief instructor couldn’t even be our match; how strong could he possibly be?"

"Hehe, you’re right. In our Cangnan Academy, getting to be a town chief isn’t exactly easy."

Tu Qi spoke as if sighing.

"Alright, it’s enough that the matter’s resolved. Get a good night’s rest; we’ll hit the road again tomorrow."

Chen Yang didn’t want to keep chatting.

After a few simple words, the two of them sat cross‑legged together and began cultivating.

At the Realm they had reached, they almost no longer needed actual sleep.

Sitting in meditation and absorbing the Spiritual Energy between heaven and earth was the best form of rest.

The night passed without incident.

The next day, the two of them went downstairs together very early.

"Do the two great powerhouses need breakfast?"

As soon as they came downstairs, the shopkeeper personally stepped forward respectfully to receive them.

He was always deferential to the town chief; toward Chen Yang and Tu Qi, whose status and strength surpassed even the town chief’s, his attitude naturally went without saying.

"No need, we’re checking out." Chen Yang said directly.

Without waiting for the shopkeeper’s reaction, he and Tu Qi left the inn, passed through the town, and continued toward Weng City.

"Brother Chen Yang, do you think that old fox Li Zhan will actually listen to us, compensate the shop’s losses, and heal that man? I can’t shake the feeling that old guy is definitely not a peaceful sort."

As they flew quickly on their way, Tu Qi still couldn’t let go of what had happened yesterday.

To be honest, Chen Yang wasn’t entirely at ease either.

But he definitely couldn’t protect that man forever.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Who knows. Once we finish the mission, we can come back and take a look. If he hasn’t done what we said..."

Chen Yang didn’t finish the sentence, but the meaning was obvious.

If Li Zhan took revenge on those people after they left, they definitely wouldn’t show mercy.

Not to mention outright eliminating a scourge for the people, at the very least they’d teach him a lesson and report it to the Academy.

Make them pay the corresponding price.

"Mm." Tu Qi nodded with a grin, then stopped talking and focused on rushing along the road.

Originally, Weng City was only a little over a hundred kilometers in a straight line from Cangnan Academy.

But because the two of them had taken some detours, the journey ended up longer.

All told, after spending almost half a day, they finally reached the vicinity of Weng City.

After flying for a whole day, they were honestly a bit tired.

But Chen Yang could still hold on.

It was Tu Qi who couldn’t keep going.

He was panting a little from fatigue, and during the flight he hadn’t been able to eat.

Before long, his stomach started growling loudly.
