Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

```

The raging Five Element Spiritual Energy exploded outward, centering on Xia Liu.

When the disciples of the Taiji Sect were swept by the Five Element Spiritual Energy, they vomited blood and were sent flying one after another.

In a flash, on the stage, only Xia Liu was left, striking out in a defiant pose.

As for everyone else, they were utterly overwhelmed.

What just happened?

Only a very few people knew how perilous that moment had been.

"Officer Li, your boyfriend is too strong..." Chang Wusheng's voice trembled ceaselessly.

He had just discovered something, discovered another world!

Xia Liu's technique was just like those high-level martial artists on TV, releasing their inner qi outward! Sweeping through thousands of troops! Unmatched and invincible!!

Li Qianqian had no energy to explain anything, she was completely stunned.

She had never dared to imagine that Xia Liu could be so powerful, considering she had once provoked him.

Looking back now, it seemed ridiculous; he must have always been laughing at her.

"That is!!!"

Qingfeng stared blankly at Xia Liu, his eyes nearly bulging out.

"Inner Qi released outward!!! The release of Inner Qi by a Mysterious Rank Warrior!!!" The white-haired elder pointed at Xia Liu, unable to express his inner astonishment with words.

"A Mysterious Rank Warrior!!!" Qingfeng exclaimed in surprise.

He was very clear about the ranking of martial artists.

A Mysterious Rank Warrior, even the Sect Leader couldn't achieve that!

"The released Inner Qi has cleared the entire stage; only a high-level Mysterious Rank Warrior could do that!" The white-haired elder swallowed a bit of saliva and added, "At the beginning, he even used the Taiyi Eight Trigrams Palm!"

"He is an Elder of the Taiyi Sect!!!"

Reminded by the Sect Leader, Qingfeng cried out in realization.

"Exactly!" The elder said, dashing towards the stage as fast as he could.

Elder Qingfeng did likewise.

The moment they stepped onto the stage, both men immediately knelt on one knee.

"Please forgive us, Elder!" The two men said in unison.

Seeing the Sect Leader and Elder Qingfeng kneeling before Xia Liu, the disciples on the ground, although injured, also knelt on one knee following their lead.

"Everyone stand up," Xia Liu said with a pleased smile upon witnessing this scene.

His reason for stepping onto the stage was to intimidate, and now that he had achieved his goal, it was time to question them.

"The thirty-fifth Sect Leader of the Taiji Sect: Tianqian, thanks the Elder!"

"And all of you stand up as well, I was merely testing your foundations just now, and it appears they are very good."

"Thank you, Elder Taiyi!" Three hundred disciples said in chorus.

"Elder Taiyi, please come inside to the inner hall to rest," Sect Master Tianqian said with a bitter smile.

He was now regretting deeply; he couldn't see anything remarkable about Xia Liu on the surface.

But when Qingfeng had called for the disciples to attack, he hadn't stopped them; if Xia Liu held it against him, not only could he lose his position as Sect Leader, but considering his status as a high-level Mysterious Rank Warrior, if Xia Liu made a move against him, death was the only outcome.

In response to Tianqian's invitation, Xia Liu did not refuse, for this was not the place for an inquiry.

"Qianqian, let's go, time to interrogate them." Xia Liu reached out and pulled her up from the ground as he approached Li Qianqian.

Looking at Xia Liu's smiling face, Li Qianqian didn't dare say anything else, she nodded and let him lead her away.

Chang Wusheng and his three teammates quickly followed Xia Liu, having collected their thoughts.

```

In a scenic loft of the Taiji Sect, Qingfeng personally poured tea, while Sect Master Tianqian stood respectfully by the table.

"Sect Master Tianqian, there's no need for this, please sit down."

Facing Tianqian's unceasing apologies, Xia Liu felt quite embarrassed.

The old man must be seventy or eighty years old, incessantly apologizing to him—it was entirely unbecoming.

It was as if he were bullying an elderly man.

"I dare not. Questioning an Elder, offending an Elder—according to the Taiyi Sect rules, one's cultivation should be abolished and they should be expelled from the sect. That the Elder can forgive this junior, I am very gratified."

"Pfft! Junior!" Upon hearing Elder Tianqian's words, Li Qianqian immediately spat out the tea in her mouth.

An old man with white hair calling himself a junior, addressing Xia Liu, who was in his twenties, as a senior—it felt somewhat incongruous.

"In front of Elder Xia, Tianqian will always be the junior," Tianqian said with a bitter smile, offering no further explanation.

Those who practice martial arts understand that regardless of age, those of a higher rank are always the seniors, and those of a lower rank are forever the juniors.

"Enough of that, just tell me what's going on with Chongyin." Now that Xia Liu was an Elder of the Taiyi Sect, he directly questioned Tianqian.

Li Qianqian and Chang Wusheng became serious. They were here for the kidnapping and murder case.

The investigation was finally about to begin!

"Chongyin is my closed-door disciple, extremely talented. He only needed ten years to reach the Primary-Level Mysterious Rank. Because no one in the sect could match him, the competitive Chongyin began to break free from the sect's constraints."

Speaking of Chongyin, Sect Master Tianqian's face was filled with nothing but sighs.

"So where is he now?" Li Qianqian asked timidly.

"I'm not sure. Half a month ago, I ordered Chongyin to reflect in confinement at Regretful Cliff for destroying a pavilion, but who knew he would seize the opportunity to escape from the mountain!"

"As expected, the Hejing kidnapping and murder case is very likely Chongyin's doing!"

"This wretched disciple! Once we capture him, his cultivation must be abolished!"

"By the way, Sect Master Tianqian, you just mentioned that Chongyin's cultivation is at Primary-Level Mysterious Rank, then what rank are you?" Xia Liu asked, puzzled.

While he was abroad, the ranks he had become familiar with among Huaxia warriors were Heaven and Earth Mystic Yellow.

Each rank was divided into four sub-ranks: primary, intermediate, high, and peak. He wondered if this was the same as the cultivation divisions in the Huaxia heartland.

"This junior has cultivated to this day without breaking through to the Mysterious Rank, remaining at the Yellow-Rank Peak," Tianqian said, his old face unwittingly blushing.

Decades ago, among his brothers who shared the 'Tian' generation name, perhaps only he remained at the lowest cultivation rank.

Looking at Xia Liu, Tianqian felt even more embarrassed; the young man before him already possessed a High-Level Mysterious Rank cultivation.

As for himself, after more than fifty years of martial arts training, he was still at the Yellow-Rank Peak; it felt as though he had wasted his time.

...

Although Xia Liu didn't know what Yellow-Rank Peak represented, Tianqian had mentioned earlier that they would abolish Chongyin's cultivation upon capturing him.

A Yellow-Rank abolishing a Mysterious Rank, bridging a major gap—it's like a child fighting an adult.

"Hehe, no worries. Keep on cultivating, and you'll progress in time," Xia Liu said with a bitter smile, feeling that the old man had suffered enough; if he were to rebuke him further, Tianqian might quite wish for death.

Of course, the kind of cultivation Xia Liu practiced was not that of a martial artist but something even more powerful...

After dinner, Xia Liu had Qingfeng report everything about Chongyin to Chang Wusheng.

With this information to add to the search registration, the chances of finding Chongyin should greatly increase.

After the meal, Tianqian paid a visit to Xia Liu, hoping to learn some news about the Taiyi Sect from him.

But what would Xia Liu know? He made up an excuse and sent Tianqian away.

Xia Liu wandered through the beautiful night scenery of the Taiji Sect, unaware that since some time, a sneaky figure was following him...
