Urban Super Medical Saint-Chapter 439 - 438: Showing Off One’s Proficiency with the Axe before Lu Ban
"How long are you planning to keep me locked up?" Yamaguchi Haruko looked at the stern-faced bodyguards with a pitiful expression and asked.
Initially, when she was confined, Yamaguchi Haruko thought that Matsukawa Nozomu would come to find her soon, but unexpectedly, a whole day and night passed, and it seemed like Matsukawa Nozomu had completely forgotten about her.
In this case, Yamaguchi Haruko was completely unable to understand what Matsukawa Nozomu was actually trying to do.
The two bodyguards ignored her, acting as if they hadn’t heard her at all.
"Can’t you be less stern? It’s just a small issue. Don’t you think it’s cruel to keep a young woman locked up like this?" Yamaguchi Haruko said in a grievous tone as she continued, her voice becoming even more moving when she saw the bodyguards ignoring her.
"It indeed is just a small issue. As long as you honestly answer this gentleman’s questions, I will answer your question," Yamaguchi Haruko had just finished speaking when, unnoticed, the door was pushed open, and Matsukawa Nozomu, accompanied by the freshly disguised Ge Dongxu, walked in.

"Matsukawa Nozomu! Once our leader learns you have detained me, he definitely won’t let you off. You better release me quickly; there might still be a chance to turn things around," Yamaguchi Haruko’s face changed instantly upon seeing Matsukawa Nozomu, and she coldly threatened.
"Mr. Ge, this is Yamaguchi Haruko." However, Matsukawa Nozomu ignored Yamaguchi Haruko, waved his hand to have others leave the room, then bowed slightly to Ge Dongxu and said.
Seeing Matsukawa Nozomu bow to a young man and speaking in Chinese, Yamaguchi Haruko’s face showed a moment of confusion, but soon her expression drastically changed as she said, "Did the Chen Family’s mission fail because of you?"
She spoke in Chinese, and her pronunciation was even more accurate than Matsukawa Nozomu’s.
"You can speak Chinese?" Ge Dongxu asked, somewhat surprised, looking at Yamaguchi Haruko.
"Of course. Being a top assassin requires proficiency in several languages," Yamaguchi Haruko replied coldly.
"Ah, I had indeed forgotten that you are also an assassin," Ge Dongxu paused slightly, then said, coming to a realization.
"I assume Matsukawa Nozomu must have told you about my real identity, so I advise you to release me immediately. Our Anri Organization is a powerful group, not something a single individual can contend with," Yamaguchi Haruko said.
"The strength of Anri is not important; what is important is that it has provoked me. So, I kindly ask Miss Yamaguchi to answer my questions properly, or don’t blame me for being ruthless. Of course, if Miss Yamaguchi cooperates fully, I am willing to let you go," Ge Dongxu said as he casually untied the ropes binding Yamaguchi Haruko.
"Alright, ask." Yamaguchi Haruko complied and remained sitting in the chair, her True Qi slowly circulating within her, easing the numbness in her limbs and accumulating energy for a burst.
"Tell me how many people are in the Anri Organization, where is the headquarters, and where is the leader?" Ge Dongxu clearly knew that Yamaguchi Haruko was secretly circulating her True Qi, but he didn’t care at all and instead turned, sat on the sofa, and crossed his legs as he asked.
Matsukawa Nozomu did not sit but stood behind the sofa like an attendant.
Haruko Yamaguchi saw that Matsukawa Nozomu didn’t even have the guts to sit down in front of Ge Dongxu, she couldn’t help but feel secretly shocked, yet this did not deter her from circulating her True Qi.
Haruko Yamaguchi was at the Second Level of Qi Cultivation, and she had also undergone intense close-combat training. Even if Ge Dongxu was also a member of Qimen, just like her, she did not believe that if she suddenly attacked, Ge Dongxu could react quickly enough to use Techniques to block her attack.
Of course, she wouldn’t attack rashly. Once she did attack, it had to be a sure hit, otherwise, once the bodyguards rushed in from outside the door, pointing guns at her, she would lose the chance to resist, just like last time.
"Only our leader knows exactly how many people are in the Anri Organization, as for the headquarters..." Haruko Yamaguchi purposefully dragged out her words. Then, just as Ge Dongxu was waiting for her to continue, she suddenly leapt up from her position like a cheetah, her fingers spread wide, and pounced toward Ge Dongxu.
"With just that level of cultivation, you shouldn’t try to show off your skills in front of me!" Seeing Haruko Yamaguchi lunge toward him, Ge Dongxu gave a disdainful cold smirk and raised his hand to strike her from a distance.
Immediately, Haruko Yamaguchi felt an overwhelming force coming toward her chest.
With her momentum, Haruko Yamaguchi let out a cry, her body flying backward and then heavily falling to the ground, while Ge Dongxu appeared as if he had never physically touched her.
Even though Matsukawa Nozomu had already witnessed Ge Dongxu’s prowess, seeing such miraculous and terrifying means from a close distance as a bystander still scared him enough to make his legs tremble, his eyes revealing deep awe and fear.
"True Qi released! Strike across mountains!" Haruko Yamaguchi screamed in a high pitch, her face pale.
People in Qimen all cultivate True Qi, but releasing True Qi outside of one’s body requires at least the cultivation of the Fourth Layer of Qi Cultivation. To release True Qi and still possess the power to strike across mountains requires at least being at the Sixth or Seventh Layer of Qi Cultivation.
For Haruko Yamaguchi, releasing True Qi was already quite impressive. As for striking across mountains, to her, it was almost a legendary realm.
"It seems you do have some insights," Ge Dongxu coldly smiled and said, "Since you know that I can strike across mountains, I think you should understand that any trick in front of me is just a waste of effort."
"Just kill me!" Haruko Yamaguchi slowly stood up from the ground and said, looking at Ge Dongxu.
"Killing you is just a matter of lifting a finger for me. However, you should know that a person like me has many ways to kill someone. Even before I kill you, I can still get the information I want from you. But that requires more effort, and I do not want to tire myself. Of course, you are a very beautiful woman, and beautiful women can sometimes elicit a sense of compassion in men, so if I were you, knowing that sooner or later I would reveal my secrets, I might as well just speak up and avoid unnecessary suffering. Of course, I know you might still be hopeful, so I might as well let you see for yourself, in case you think I am bluffing!" said Ge Dongxu, as a powerful spiritual power was released from him, pressing down on Haruko Yamaguchi like a majestic mountain.
Haruko Yamaguchi immediately felt an intense pain in her brain and a crushing weight on her heart, like the fear of doomsday.
The already standing Haruko Yamaguchi suddenly slumped back to the ground, her eyes full of terror.
She was proficient in the Bewitching Soul Technique, naturally making her much stronger in spiritual power than other magicians of the same realm, but under the oppressive might of Ge Dongxu’s powerful spiritual power, she felt as insignificant as a tiny insect under a giant mountain.
She simply could not imagine how a person’s spiritual power could be so immense!
