Not even the Heavenly King himself can protect you.

One wave subsides, another rises.

The three major sects, including two members of the Four Young Masters of the Martial Arts World, brought an intangible pressure to Jiangnan!

Any single one of these three forces was capable of uniting Jiangnan under its banner, not to mention that all three were about to clash fiercely right here in Jiangnan!

However, this had long been anticipated by Ling Xiao.

The four Xuan Tie tokens were entry tickets to seize supremacy among the hundreds of sects. It was impossible for other sects to turn a blind eye to the White Tiger Token located in Jiangnan!

Ling Xiao was not afraid at all; on the contrary, having so many people help him search for the White Tiger Token saved him a lot of trouble.

Whoever found it would simply be killed!

...

In the afternoon, Ling Xiao returned to the school infirmary.

At this time, classes had just begun at the university, and the infirmary was exceptionally quiet.

As Ling Xiao walked up to the entrance, his keen hearing caught some whispering voices.

"Director Qin, please don't be like this."

"Hehehe... Yuluo, don't resist so much. You know, from the very first time I saw you, I've liked you! Your pure appearance is just like the class beauty I had a secret crush on when I was young."

"Director Qin, if you come any closer, I'm going to call for help!"

"Hehehe... Go ahead and call, try shouting! Classes are in session right now, there's nobody here at all! Besides, even if you did call someone, so what? At Jiangnan University, even the president has to show me some respect. Let's see who dares to touch me? When the time comes, I'll just say you seduced me, and you might even get expelled by the school! You better think carefully!"

Ling Xiao glanced into the room and saw a middle-aged, balding, fat swine pressing step by step toward Ouyang Yuluo!

Ouyang Yuluo's face was deathly pale. Holding a small surgical scalpel, she slowly backed away, looking as helpless as a frightened little white rabbit.

Ling Xiao couldn't help shaking his head. In this world, there were still so many bad people!

Without a second thought, he kicked open the door of the infirmary, the loud crash startling the two people inside.

"Who is it?"

"Doctor Ling, you're here, that's wonderful!"

Ouyang Yuluo cried out in pleasant surprise, quickly trotting behind Ling Xiao, grabbing the corner of his shirt, and hiding behind his back, too afraid to poke her head out.

Director Qin's expression turned extremely ugly. Clearly, Ling Xiao had ruined his good deed, and he was naturally anything but happy about it.

"Who are you? Why have I never seen you before? Who gave you the nerve to kick open the door of the school infirmary? Do you know this is public property?"

Ouyang Yuluo hurriedly said, "He is our newly arrived infirmary doctor!"

"Oh! So that's how it is!" Director Qin let out a cold snort.

"In that case, forget it! Let this be the last time!"

With that, he put his hands behind his back, puffed out his chest, and strolled leisurely toward the exit.

However, just as he passed by Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao suddenly reached out and blocked his path!

"What do you want?" Director Qin snapped coldly.

Ling Xiao swung his hand and delivered a slap.

*Crack.*

The crisp, resounding slap sent Director Qin spinning around in circles, his fat body stumbling backward.

"You... how dare you hit me?"

He finally steadied himself, clutching his face, eyes wide, staring at Ling Xiao in utter bewilderment.

Ling Xiao withdrew his hand, pulled a tissue from the desk to wipe it, and said with a cold expression, "You didn't even let out a peep just now when that happened. If I don't hit you, am I supposed to coddle you? I'm not your father!"

Director Qin stared fiercely at Ling Xiao. "You saw everything?"

"Not all of it, but it doesn't stop me from beating you!"

Director Qin's expression gradually turned grim. "Even if you saw it, so what? You're just a lowly infirmary doctor. Do you know who I am?"

"I am the director of student affairs at Jiangnan University! With a single word from me, I can have you fired in a minute!"

Ling Xiao glanced around, walked over to a long table, and forcefully tore off one of its wooden legs!

"Even if you were the Jade Emperor himself, you couldn't stop me from beating you!"

Director Qin's heart skipped a beat. "Hey! You... don't do anything rash! Let me tell you, I'm not just the director of student affairs. I have connections in the Education Bureau, and I know influential people in the Police Department! If you dare lay a finger on me, I'll make you pay dearly! I'll make you rot in prison, do you hear me?"

"Screw your mother!"

Ling Xiao stepped right up to him and smashed the wooden club down without hesitation.

*Bang—!*

Director Qin's one-hundred-and-eighty-pound body was sent flying on the spot, crashing heavily against a long table.

"Ah—! My arm! My arm is broken! You... stop right now! I was wrong, I was wrong, I'll give you money, just stop! I'll give you a promotion and a raise!"

Ling Xiao walked straight toward him, and Director Qin trembled with fright. "Oh, my lord!"

He scrambled up, trying to run, but Ling Xiao brought the club down hard once more. Accompanied by a sharp snap, his shinbone broke instantly.

"Ah—!"

Director Qin wailed in agony, weeping bitter tears. Pampered and soft-skinned all his life, when had he ever been subjected to such treatment? Ling Xiao's two blows felt like they were going to cost him his life!

Yet Ling Xiao did not stop there; blow after blow rained down.

The table leg was as thick as an infant's arm and made of solid wood. Combined with Ling Xiao's immense strength, every single strike shattered another section of Director Qin's bones!

Director Qin drifted in and out of consciousness from the pain, finally foaming at the mouth.

Ouyang Yuluo, pale with fright, hurried over and grabbed Ling Xiao's arm. "Doctor Ling, stop hitting him, please stop! If you keep hitting him, he's going to die!"

Only then did Ling Xiao drop the wooden table leg.

"You're right. Beating him to death would let him off too easy! Daring to bully someone of mine—breaking all the bones in his body should teach him how to swagger around for the rest of his life."

With that, he spat on the ground and lit a cigarette.

"Call an hospital, don't let him croak, or it'll be too cheap for him!"

Ouyang Yuluo's pretty face twitched violently.

Yet Ling Xiao's words still filled her with a profound sense of warmth.

It seemed this Doctor Ling wasn't entirely bad after all; he should be quite easy to get along with in the future.

Hastily, she picked up the phone and called an ambulance to prevent Director Qin from actually dying!

After sending off Director Qin, who looked like a slaughtered pig, Ouyang Yuluo cleaned up the chaotic infirmary while furrowing her delicate brows in worry.

"Doctor Ling, Director Qin's background is quite extraordinary. He knows a lot of high-profile people. Will we be in trouble for beating him?"

"I'll take the blame if there's any trouble. You don't need to worry."

"How can I do that? You got into this trouble because of me, I can never let you shoulder the responsibility alone!"

"Whatever you say."

Knowing that arguing with her would be pointless, Ling Xiao couldn't be bothered to nag.

Meanwhile, Ouyang Yuluo wore an expression of resolute determination.

"Doctor Ling, don't worry, I am never one to cower in fear of death!"
