Chapter 18: Chapter 18

"No need to ask!" said Fu Tian.

He's ready to rip this stupid brother of his apart. How dare he do all these bad things right in front of him? He needs to teach him a lesson he'll never forget.

"Err... wait! Before we fight, whether I lose or not please promise to give me shuliang herbs. I heard it's very tasty when eaten raw and I've been stuck at Saint bottleneck for a long time now." said Fu Jin.

Han Liang who was atop the third stage frowned.

"Old Man, be a man and fight my master. Know that if you dare use any underhanded methods, I will stab you" Han Liang threatened.

"Look at this sick chicken preaching about good health when its house has not been swept for 9 months" Fu Jin cursed.

"You... Master, please finish him off" said Han Liang with deep hatred.

"Sure my son, I will avenge you," said Fu Tian as he gathered a ball of fire.

"Wow! Big bro, your fire is so big. About the shuliang herbs..." Doctor Fu was interrupted by the unhappy Han Liang.

"Nothing is free. Whether Master gives you the herb or not you must pay" said Han Liang.

"Pay with what?" Doctor Fu asked in feigned confusion.

"Your most treasured possession!" Han Liang coldly stated.

"Ah, I see. I will give you my hair in exchange for shuliang herbs," said Doctor Fu.

"Hair my ass! Who wants your lice-filled hair." Han Liang snapped.

"Of course! I know neither you nor my big bro will accept my hair and so... "Doctor Fu muttered some words inaudibly and raised his left pinky finger which started to emit red light.

"Get me the hair of a beauty" Doctor Fu commanded as the light rushed towards Han Liang.

Han Liang was stunned to see the strange light rushing towards him. What does this devil want to do to him? Fu Tian was also unhappy. His disciple's hair cannot be lost. He wondered where his brother learned such an evil spell from.

"Fu Jin, if you do anything..." he was unable to say further because the red light that was heading towards Han Liang turned and headed towards Fu Tian at double speed.

Fu Tian's heart nearly fell.

"Didn't you want to fight me, big bro? I said whether I win or not, you'll give me shuliang herbs. But your disciple asked for payment. You know how stingy I am," said Fu Jin as the light enveloped Fu Tian who retracted his aura.

"Fu Jin stop this!" shouted Fu Tian.

"Oh! Finally, you called my name. I thought you had forgotten it, Fu Tian." Doctor Fu said with a smile and then turned to face Han Liang and winked. Seeing Fu Jiu wink at him, Han Liang nearly peed in his pants.

"Why is he looking at me?" he thought terrified,

Look at his master being enveloped by that spell! Is it possible he wanted to cripple him again? No, he can't allow that to happen! But then, what should he do? Master needs help. He himself also needs help too. Ah, what a sticky situation!

All the while, Fu Jiu had stepped down from the stage and was heading towards Han Liang.

"My beauty, we had hot sex last night. I can't get it off my mind till now so while your master is dancing, let us have our fill of love," said Fu Jin when he was 5 feet away from a trembling Han Liang.

"So Master's brother is a pervert? Is that why they had disagreements? What do I do? I can't use the teleportation stone. If I do, then I will be betraying Master and I can't do that to him. He's been so good to me all this time; I can't ditch him." Han Liang thought.

"Beauty, don't worry, I've made you unable to access the teleportation stone in the tiny storage ring that Fu Tian gave you. Don't worry, it won't be for long." Fu Jin said, a smirk on his red lips.

Meanwhile, Fu Tian could not see what was happening clearly. All he could feel was something wet on his head. It felt so warm and yet uncomfortable.

"Fu Jin, stop this now! And don't you dare hurt my disciple," Fu Tian warned as he tried to battle the spell around him by casting another called 'Black saint'.

Black saint is meant to cause blindness for 7 days. This spell can only be countered with a lethal flower called '4th-grade demonic flower 'Honey'. It looks just like grass and is very hard to detect or find because it smells just like grass. It also has a mind of its own so when someone manages to find it and then tries to take hold of it, it will create a hallucination mist that can affect even a Master Saint unless they have a counter talisman.

Fu Tian sent this spell towards whom he had in mind and that was Fu Jin.

Fu Jin though having not made any effort to cultivate much these past 10 years was still strong enough to quickly counter such a profound-grade spell with the symbol of the 'Honey' flower. He might be a doctor but that doesn't mean he knows nothing much about spells.

Besides, if he went into the field of alchemy, he'd surpass his brother and take the title of the Alchemist king. The reason why both had a serious fight ten years ago because Doctor Fu wanted Han Liang to be his student but Fu Tian would not agree.

He had then at that moment broken his vow to Fu Jin and so Fu Jin vowed to never see him again. Fu Jin returning to him this time was to deal with Han Liang. Because of Han Liang, he became foes with his brother, and because of the same Han Liang's mother, Jin Ehuang, he treated someone for no payment.

Now coming here, all he received were insults and the stupid Han Liang trying to cripple him. How could he not be angry? He was here to deal with Han Liang.

Today no matter how many miraculous pills his big brother feeds him, Han Liang must become a cripple. After that, he will leave.

"Big bro, if I can't counter such spells, then please call me a coward. And I, Fu Tian, I'm never a coward. Take this..."

Fu Jin took out a jade bottle from his sleeves and opened the lid.

"Divert" Fu Jin muttered as he sprinkled the red powder while casting another unknown spell which made Han Liang wonder if Doctor Fu was a doctor, alchemist, or spell master. He seemed so good at all three!

"Han Liang on that day, in the forest I saved you from being eaten by that beast but what did I get in return? I truly saw you as my disciple already. I wanted you to be my disciple. One to inherit all I know and my skills. But what did you do? You chose that man you call Master. I am your true master. You should have died. I should have just let you die. Because I lost access to you, I nearly lost my sanity. " Fu Jin was close to ripping Han Liang apart. The feud between him and his brother was because of Han Liang.

"I don't care what happens to me. Take this..." shouted doctor Fu as he began to cast many spells using his first three fingers at the same time. One of the spells sealed Han Liang's acupoints, the other rooted him firmly to the stage he was standing on.

The very spell sent by Fu Tian to make Fu Jin blind which had been diverted towards Han Liang fused together with another unknown spell that went straight into Han Liang's eyes.

The last one which seemed to sap Doctor Fu's energy went straight for Han Liang's dantian. It was at this moment that the spell cast on Fu Tian lost its effect and he could clearly see again.

But what he saw made him feel so useless as a master. The Alchemist king had to watch his very own disciple get crippled in front of him the second time. Fu Tian was so done with his little brother now.

"FU JI-I-I-N" he roared as he released his aura to the extreme but he directed it to only Fu Jin who turned to face him with a smile.

"Fu Tian, I have come for payback and robbery. Let's fight, shall we? I assure you that your beauty's head will remain intact whether you lose or not." Doctor Fu said with a mocking smile on his lips.

Fu Jin need not wait for his brother's answer as he walked back to his stage and picked up the cauldron he had brought.

"Big bro, as one of the guardians of this library, it's not nice for me to cause havoc in it. I shall wait for you at my place today. Do you dare to come? Please don't fail to arrive or else I'll view you as a coward." said Fu Jin. Then he turned to face Han Liang, who was trying to shout but did not produce any sound since Fu Jin had sealed his voice.

Han Liang could also not believe what he was facing. Who in this life wants to be crippled?

No one!

Not even the weakest cultivator In the whole of Luo Ye but not only did he get crippled once, but it was also twice. The miraculous pill his master gave him did return his cultivation. The price he had to pay was eating so much pain.

But he endured it. He endured all of that pain because he wanted to return to Golden core stage level 1 which a great feat in history.But now, all that he worked hard for was gone! If he managed to recover the first time, then, it was certainly not for this time.

He cannot explain the pain he's going through right now. Not only is he unable to move any part of his body except his eyes, but he is also unable to fall to the ground because Fu Jin's spell rooted his to his stage firmly. On top of that, he has become blind!

Why was Fu Jin doing this to them?He also recalled him saying he saved him from the two-headed demonic bull in the forest ten years ago.But then, why does he have no recollection of that?All he could vividly recall was that Master Fu Tian saved him from the gates of Death but this Fu Jin claimed to be his savior.

Was there anything behind the scenes that he did not know about? Han Liang was confused about this whole mess.All this time Fu Jin never broke into Master's home, why did he suddenly come here and start killing them slowly?

All this time Han Liang was thinking, Fu Jin watched him with interest, an evil smile remained on his lips. He did not care about the pain that Han Liang was going through right now. To him, this was a movie.

"You look really hot when moaning. Unfortunately, I don't have the mood to enjoy it well. Fu Tian, see if you can treat him," Doctor Fu said as a beam of light towards him and stayed still atop his hand.

It dimmed to reveal human hair which made Alchemist king Fu touch his head and of course, nothing was there. All he felt was bald skin and even his eyebrows were gone. So his brother had taken all of his hair just like that!

What did his brother want? How did his lazy brother get so powerful? From what he noticed, Fu Jin was not affected by his aura at all. He then also remembered that Fu Jin was able to break in without disrupting the array set by his friend, Qu Huan, a 7th level array master.

An array master is rarer to find than an alchemist. You could say 1 in 10,000 is an alchemist but for an array master, it's 1 in 100,000 people. An array set by such a powerful person is not easy to break. But then, his brother came in so easily, hiding his presence so perfectly.

Now he was beginning to doubt if he was still stronger than his brother. Currently, he could not even see his brother's cultivation. Could this mean that his brother is in emperor stage level 2 or was he wearing something that his cultivation?

Fu Jin chuckled a little as he watched this pair of Master and disciple suffer before him.

"Jin Ehuang, you finally trigger me to take revenge. I should thank you for that." he muttered before burning the human hair in his hand to ashes which he sprinkled on the marble floor.

"May your hair rest in pieces," Fu Jin said finally before disappearing with the cauldron in hand.

Fu Tian was finally free from the spell cast on him and he immediately rushed towards Han Liang who was close to dying from the pain. Seeing his once energetic disciple like this, Fu Tian gritted his teeth.

"Your right little bro. We should fight to the death." Fu Tian shouted startling Han Liang who immediately vomited blood, staining Fu Tian's white robes.

Fu Tian immediately removed all the seals in Han Liang's acupoints and legs and he immediately fell towards the floor but Alchemist king raised his right palm and bent his pinky finger and his thumb resulting in Han Liang's body covered by white light, making his levitate in mid-air.

"My son, let's go treat you. You must hold on for this useless master." Fu Tian muttered before disappearing with Han Liang and their two cauldrons.
