Extraordinary Medical Saint in the City-Chapter 1141 - 1139: One Question—Should Yi Tianqiu Be Killed?

"What do you mean?"

"Clan Leader, you couldn't possibly not know why I'm here, right?"

Lin Fan's tone was arrogant, with a hint of amusement, showing no signs of panic.

Calm.

Composed.

Steady.

Yi Shengtang had never seen someone standing before him maintaining such composure.

Moreover.

This person was still young.

All the more terrifying.

It's uncertain what he might develop into in the future.

Yi Shengtang thought to himself, turning around and striding to the main seat to sit down.

He stared at Lin Fan, who didn't shy away from Yi Shengtang's gaze, responding with a smile.

For a long while.

Yi Shengtang finally asked coldly.

"What do you really want to do?"

Instead of answering, Lin Fan shrugged and changed the subject.

"Earlier I went to Yi Tianqiu's residence, and bumped into his father."

Yi Shengtang frowned slightly, unsure of Lin Fan's intentions.

"His father said that this is Shennong Clan's territory, even if Yi Tianqiu committed a crime, he shouldn't be punished here; otherwise, both the Clan Leader and Shennong Clan would lose face."

With hands behind his back, Lin Fan paced back and forth, looking carefree.

"So, I said I came to seek a statement from the Clan Leader. I assume the Clan Leader already knows what Yi Tianqiu did."

"How do you know I know?"

"Upon seeing me bring Yi Tianqiu here, the Clan Leader didn't show any surprise, and didn't inquire about Yi Tianqiu's injuries like you had known in advance. The only ones who could harm someone in front of the Clan Leader are those within the clan. That is to say, Yi Tianqiu's serious injuries were tacitly approved by the Clan Leader, which indicates the Clan Leader knows about Yi Tianqiu's matter."

Yi Shengtang was slightly stunned.

Lin Fan deduced accurately from the minutiae, without missing a beat.

His heart was impressed more by Lin Fan.

Yi Shengtang smiled slightly, leaning back in the chair with interest, watching Lin Fan.

"Interesting, interesting."

"I came to ask you one thing, should Yi Tianqiu be executed?"

Clang!

Lin Fan suddenly swung a saber, pointing directly at Yi Tianqiu on the ground.

With just a wrist movement, Yi Tianqiu would lose his head and breathe his last.

A cold gleam flashed across the blade.

Yi Tianqiu was so frightened he broke out in cold sweat, his skin rippling with goosebumps.

He couldn't shout, couldn't move, only helplessly stared at Yi Shengtang.

Yi Shengtang didn't expect Lin Fan to make a move.

His face changed sharply.

Daring to brandish weapons in Shennong Clan Main Hall, Lin Fan was the first!

He couldn't help but fly into a rage, shouting angrily.

"Arrogant!"

Yet.

Lin Fan remained indifferent, even looking dismissive.

"Clan Leader, I'm only asking you, should Yi Tianqiu be executed?"

Yi Shengtang's eye twitched slightly, shooting a piercing glare at Lin Fan, but didn't utter a word.

He clearly understood.

Considering Yi Tianqiu's actions, even if Lin Fan acted, he couldn't argue.

After all, a life for a life, it's perfectly reasonable.

But.

This is Shennong Clan.

In Shennong Clan Main Hall.

In front of him, Yi Shengtang, the Clan Leader.

If Lin Fan killed Yi Tianqiu just like that, wouldn't Shennong Clan's prestige be shattered, wouldn't he lose face entirely?

Therefore.

Yi Shengtang couldn't answer this question.

For years.

Lin Fan was the first to perplex and trouble him.

He involuntarily swallowed hard.

Silent.

Deathly silent.

Not a sound in the vast main hall, eerily quiet.

Yi Shengtang was plotting how to solve the thorny issue before him, how to expel Lin Fan, the troublemaker, from Shennong Clan.

But he couldn't come up with a good solution.

Suddenly.

A long howl came from outside the main hall.

"Clan Leader—Clan Leader—"

Everyone turned their heads.

Only to see Yi Shengmang running in hurriedly.

He just stepped into the main hall.

Feeling the tense atmosphere inside.

He stopped abruptly, staring at Yi Shengtang and Lin Fan.

Seeing Clan Leader Yi Shengtang still sitting on the main seat, showing no signs of injury, though a few soldiers were curled up against the wall, in pain.

He breathed a sigh of relief, ready to relax.

But glancing at Lin Fan, his heart raced, inhaling sharply.

Lin Fan was wielding a saber, pointed at Yi Tianqiu's head.

"Lin Fan, you... you..."

Before he finished.

Yi Shengtang slowly spoke.

"Shengmang, you're here."

"Clan Leader... this... how come..."

"Earlier, Mr. Lin asked me a question."

Yi Shengmang instinctively felt his neck turn cold, breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Wh-what question?"

"Mr. Lin asked me whether Yi Tianqiu should be executed? Now I ask you, how would you answer."

"This... this..."

Yi Shengmang stammered, unable to respond.

Though Yi Tianqiu committed a crime, logically speaking a life for a life is justified.

Yet no matter how serious the crime, Yi Tianqiu is his son.

Can't possibly watch his son die.

Yi Shengmang fell silent, not knowing how to answer.

Lin Fan slightly raised the corners of his mouth, finding it amusing.

This Yi Shengtang, not only a martial master, but also a master of shirking responsibility.

Throwing the dilemma at Yi Shengmang, surely it would scare him dumb.

Indeed.

Yi Shengmang gaped, dumbfoundedly staring at Yi Shengtang, not knowing what he meant.

Could he really want his father to agree to kill his son?

His face was bewildered, head full of questions.

At that moment.

Outside the main hall, noise erupted.

Troops Yi Shengmang sent for reinforcement arrived.

Led by Shennong's Five Generals and Yi Gangmu, menacingly targeting Lin Fan.

"Clan Leader! Apologies for the late protection!"

"I'm fine." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Yi Shengtang waved his hand, speaking lightly.

Yi Gangmu immediately turned to Lin Fan, having previously exchanged blows, they were familiar.

"Lin Fan, you're bold, daring to barge into Shennong Clan Main Hall! Do you want to die?!"

"Not quite, you lot of shrimp and crab soldiers couldn't take my life."

Lin Fan scoffed.

Arrogant.

Presumptuous.

Rampant.

Alone in a foreign territory, surrounded by Shennong Clan masters, each above the Ninth Layer.

He, a mere Ninth Rank Saint Emperor, dared to be so audacious.

If that's not arrogance, what is it?!

Yi Sheng flew into a rage.

He long resented Lin Fan, not just for being knocked out, but for Lin Fan's attitude, tone, and demeanor.

Every action tinged with contempt, ridicule, and disdain.

"You brat! Just my defeated opponent, what's smug about?! Watch me deal with you today!"

Yi Sheng moved to charge at Lin Fan.

"Stop!"

But Yi Shengmang suddenly shouted, reaching out to stop the impulsive Yi Sheng.

"Why?!"

Yi Sheng was immensely displeased, yelling in anger.

Yi Shengmang grabbed Yi Sheng by the collar, pulling him closer.

"Calm down, if anything happens to my son, I'll be the first to chop you up."

Yi Sheng paused, following Yi Shengmang's hand with a glance.

Lin Fan was grinning.

The saber already touching Yi Tianqiu's skin, poised to pierce at any moment.

"Damn."

He cursed, cheek twitching, retracting his stance.

Lin Fan shrugged, expressing helplessness.

"Are people from Shennong Clan always this impulsive? Him, and him too."

Lin Fan pointed at Yi Sheng, then Yi Tianqiu.

"With an incurable patient at home, why run to Xuan Clan pretending to be a miracle doctor? Not saving your own family?"

Everyone was bewildered, not understanding his meaning.

Only Yi Shengtang suddenly widened his eyes, limbs trembled slightly, face full of horror.
