Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor

Chapter 581: Displaying a Bit of Skill

"Kid, you’re lucky to be alive! But you can dodge the first day of the month, you can’t escape the fifteenth. You helped the cops catch our boss, so just wait for our brothers’ revenge!"Before being taken away, a scrawny youth glared menacingly at Xiong Yingxiong and said in a fierce voice.

"Pfft, scared of you guys? As if!"

Xiong Yingxiong had broken out in a cold sweat just now and still felt a chill on his back, but he refused to show any weakness and flipped the middle finger at the scrawny youth.

"What happened?"

After the three scrawny men were taken away, Fang Bai also turned back and asked innocently.

"Big brother... no, Master! You really hit the nail on the head just now. Those three guys were the accomplices of a pickpocket I helped the police catch before, and they wanted revenge. Luckily, I’ve trained in martial arts and knocked each of them down with a single kick! Heh heh..."

Xiong Yingxiong, looking at the backs of the three scrawny youths being escorted away by the train police, still felt a lingering fear, but was bragging about it.

What he didn’t know was that if it hadn’t been for Fang Bai stealthily intervening, he might have been stabbed a few times, and as for his martial arts skills, it was better not mentioned.

"It’s good that you’re okay. Come on, let’s sit down and continue our conversation."

Fang Bai smiled, patted Xiong Yingxiong’s shoulder, and the two sat down to continue discussing the topic of traditional Chinese medicine.he scenes described by Fang Bai.

"Give me two coins!"

Fang Bai said to Xiong Yingxiong.

Xiong Yingxiong possessed an Innate Fire Spirit Root, and since Fang Bai had already taken him as a disciple, it was impossible to only impart medical knowledge without teaching Martial Dao. To foster Xiong Yingxiong’s interest in Martial Dao, Fang Bai decided to show off a little trick in front of him.

Xiong Yingxiong didn’t understand why Fang Bai wanted the coins, but he still fished out two one-yuan coins from his pocket and handed them to Fang Bai.

"Watch this..."

Fang Bai placed one coin in the palm of his hand, rubbed his hands together a few times, and then opened his palm.

Hiss—

Xiong Yingxiong saw the coin in Fang Bai’s hand and couldn’t help but gasp in astonishment.

A perfectly good coin was turned into a lump after just a few rubs in Fang Bai’s palm—how much strength would be required to do that?

On closer examination of Fang Bai’s palm, it seemed to be flesh and blood just like his own—how was he able to accomplish this?

"Is... is this the power of True Essence Force?"

Xiong Yingxiong picked up the coin from Fang Bai’s hand, his face showing shock and awe as he murmured the question.

"Now look at that wall..."

Fang Bai pointed to a concrete wall not far ahead and flicked the other coin towards it. The coin whizzed through the air like lightning and embedded itself deeply into the wall.

Xiong Yingxiong hurried over to the wall and saw the coin that Fang Bai had flicked was now completely embedded into the concrete. His face was filled with even more shock, thinking that not even a bullet fired from a gun could achieve such an effect.

Xiong Yingxiong returned to Fang Bai’s side, and despite the pedestrians all around, he fell to his knees with a "thud," bowing his head and said, "Master, I want to learn Ancient Martial Arts. Please teach me!"

"Stand up," Fang Bai said.

As Fang Bai held out his hand in a supporting gesture, Xiong Yingxiong felt an invisible force lifting his body up. He was immensely shocked and held Fang Bai in even greater awe.

Fang Bai spoke seriously, "Cultivating Martial Dao is different from learning medicine. It requires persistent dedication, resilience, and hard work. Can you do it?"

"I can!"

Xiong Yingxiong slapped his chest with a "bang bang" sound, exclaiming loudly, "If I can’t, Master, you can beat or scold me! If I can’t, I’ll no longer be called Xiong Yingxiong, but change my name to Bear Dog Xiong!"

Fang Bai said, "Good, I believe you! Let’s part ways here for now. Once you return to school and sort things out there, make time to come to Yanjing Hospital to find me, and then I’ll pass on Martial Arts Techniques to you!"

Xiong Yingxiong was overjoyed and wanted to bow again to express his gratitude, but Fang Bai stopped him.

The two parted ways at an intersection ahead, with Xiong Yingxiong hailing a taxi directly to Yanjing Medical University, while Fang Bai continued walking briskly towards the siheyuan he was renting.

As noon approached, Yanjing City was buzzing with activity—workers leaving their jobs, students finishing school—the streets were bustling with the roar of traffic and a sea of people.

As Fang Bai walked on the sidewalk, he saw many students coming towards him. When he looked up ahead, he found himself near a middle school.

"Hmm? What is Mingyue doing outside of Yanjing University? Why has she come here?"

Fang Bai suddenly sensed Baili Mingyue’s presence. He walked forward about a dozen steps and saw her standing under a tree to the left of the school entrance with two female classmates, peering curiously at the students coming in and out.

Fang Bai knew that Baili Mingyue was known as the "Campus Witch" in middle school, and she had carried this nickname over to the university. Fortunately, she usually meddled in the injustices faced by other students, upholding morality, and thus Fang Bai didn’t bother to counsel her too much.

However, for a university student to run to the entrance of a middle school seemed out of place, particularly when she appeared to be looking for trouble.
