Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)

Chapter 277

Walking out of the valley, Fade Chen flicked his finger and a red beam was injected into Master Xie's body.

Initially, Master Xie was shocked.Then, he was overjoyed. He almost knelt on the ground and shed tears of gratitude. "Thank you for removing the poison in my body, Mr. Chen. Thank you very much!"He said.

Fade looked at Master Xie and said in a deep voice, "You have done what you needed to do. The poison in your body has been removed. Now, you can choose to follow me or you may leave."

Master Xie became silent and started to ponder over the situation.

After regaining his freedom, there was no doubt that Master Xie's first thought was to leave. The further he got away from Fade, the better. After all, no one wanted to be controlled by others.

But on second thought, Master Xie was reluctant to leave, because Fade was more skillful than he had imagined. Moreover, in terms of combat strength, identification of herbs, refinement of pills, gathering

information of treasures, or other aspects, Fade was a top expert.

Fade was such a versatile young genius. Master Xie didn't think that Fade trained with an ordinary clan or any other martial- arts forces. There must be a more powerful being or supernatural force behind Fade.

Moreover, even without considering the forces behind Fade, Master Xie had many conversations with him during this period of time. He obtained much knowledge regarding martial-arts training and alchemy from Fade. Master Xie's skills also improved greatly because of that. This was all due to the guidance from Fade, who was a great master and teacher.

Currently, Master Xie was close to reaching the peak of the Yellow Level. He estimated that with his current progress, he would be able to break through to the peak of the Yellow Level in three months at most.

According to his prior experiences, he was still at least a year away from the peak of the yellow level. This drastic improvement that he made was due to the distinct effect of being guided by a great teacher.

These thoughts flashed through his mind. Master Xie's eyes lit up immediately. He looked at Fade, cupped his hands and said, "I will follow Mr. Chen."

"Are you sure?" Fade asked.

Master Xie nodded with a resolute expression. He said, "I'm willing to work for you, and be of service to you, Mr.Chen."

"You don't need to serve me all day long. I just need your help sometimes," Fade said, "Since you have chosen to follow me, you should follow the rules that I set for you too."

"I'm at your service, Mr. Chen," said Master Xie respectfully.

Fade said in a cold tone, "The rules I have for you are very simple. There is actually only one rule, and that is... you must follow my orders. Can you do that?"

Master Xie was slightly stunned. He nodded and said, "Yes, I can do that. In the future, as long as Mr. Chen gives me his command, I will not hesitate to follow it."

"Alright!" Fade said. He smiled and nodded. He flipped his palm and a brown Sacred Fig appeared on his hand. "Since you're my follower, I can't just ask for your service without giving you any benefits. Take this Sacred Fig and refine it for your training!"

"You are giving me this Sacred Fig?" Master Xie asked, and he looked at Fade in disbelief.

Fade rolled his eyes at him and said, "You don't want it? Then I'll take it back!"

"No, no, I want it, I want it!" Master Xie answered. He stretched out his hand quickly and took the Sacred Fig with an excited smile on his face. "Thank you very much, Mr. Chen!"he said.

Just now, Master Xie was considering the benefits of following Fade, but he didn't expect that his reward would come so early. Fade had given him a precious Sacred Fig casually.

At this time, Master Xie rejoiced because he had made up his mind to follow Fade. This was definitely the right choice.

Thinking of this, Master Xie was very excited and expressed his thanks to Fade for a period of time.

Fade gestured his hand and said, "You don't need to be so polite. We have finished our business here. Let's go back!"

Master Xie nodded, and he walked ahead to lead the way. Compared to the anxiety he felt when he was on the way here, Master Xie felt much more relaxed on the way back.

Soon, the two of them crossed the mountain ridge and arrived at the location where they had met Lager Zu and the group of people. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Looking at the construction site of the tourist resort that was not far away, both of them prepared to leave immediately.

But just then, the sound of laughter could be heard. "Both of you are back,"someone said.

Their eyelids twitched as they exchanged glances. They looked over to the source of the voice.

It was none other than the pot-bellied man, Lager, that they had rescued earlier.

At this moment, Lager was looking at them with a smile. He rubbed his hands and his expression was enthusiastic. "Both of you are back. It's getting late. Why don't you come to my resort and have a rest?"

"No thank you. We're leaving now!" Master Xie said coldly.

However, Lager gestured his hand and more than 20 capable young men rushed out to his side. Amongst them, many of them were wearing the uniform from the construction site. It seemed that they had just been called over from the construction site of the resort.

The group of young men came forward and they blocked the way in front of Fade and Master Xie.

Master Xie's expression darkened and he said coldly, "Lager, why are you trying to block our way?"

Lager replied with a smile, "Don't take it personally. You rescued us but we didn't get to repay you for that. I felt rather guilty so I waited here to welcome you. Please come to my resort for a visit."

"Welcome us and repay us for our help?" Master Xie snorted coldly. "This doesn't look like you want to thank us," he continued.

Lager smiled and said, "Mr. Xie might have misunderstood me. I have good intentions. I'd like to invite the two of you to come and take a rest at my resort"

"No, we're not tired. We don't need to rest!" Master Xie said, and he was about to leave with Fade.

Seeing this, Lager's expression turned cold. With a hand gesture, he shouted, "Stop them!"

All of a sudden, the group of men rushed up and blocked them.

Master Xie's voice was as cold as ice. "What's wrong? You want to fight with us!"he said.

At this moment, Lager knew that he wouldn't be able to conceal his motives. He didn't put on an act like how he did earlier. He said coldly, "Since the two of you are unwilling to cooperate with me, I have no choice but to use force against both of you."

"What do you want?" Master Xie asked. His voice was rather angry.

Lager said, "I know why both of you came to this deep forest. It is not because you wanted to tour the place, but because you were searching for something else! I happened to learn from the nearby villagers that there is a mystical tree in this mountain. The tree bears solid fruits, in the size of fingernails."

"These fruits are beneficial to the human body whether they are consumed or worn as a pendant. Twenty years ago, a villager went to the city with a pendant made from this fruit and a top businessman purchased it instantly for five million yuan."

"That's five million yuan twenty years ago. Now it's definitely worth more than ten million. Furthermore, during these years, the number of rich people has increased. Many people are interested in antiques now. The corresponding price must have increased as well. I won't be surprised if the price of the fruit is worth more than a billion," Lager said. His eyes were filled with greed as he explained all this in excitement.
