Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 1235
"No, how could you..." Santos' face was filled with surprise as he exclaimed in fright.
However, before he could finish his sentence, the majestic and powerful energy had rushed over, pushing Santos' body hard onto the ground.
With a rumble, Santos' body caved in as he spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was extremely red.
Two half-meter deep holes had appeared on the spot where his feet were rooted, his legs already sunk into them.
A single strike was enough to take Santos down. The disciples of Wushuang Tower had been left dumbfounded by this scene.
"Master!"
"How could it be? How could he have such strength?"
"He had defeated a master from Earth Level's advanced realm with one punch. What kind of warrior is he? Which level and realm is he from?"
"How old is he? How could he be so powerful at such a young age?"
In an instant, many of the disciples turned their gaze to Callum. It seemed that they were questioning him. "Didn't you say that Fade was self-instructed? Why was he so strong now?" they thought to themselves.
At this moment, Callum was both frightened and stunned. He hadn't expected Fade's strength to be of such caliber. It was completely beyond his imaginations.
The faces of the crowd from Wushuang Tower which were filled with shock and astonishment. Under their watchful gaze, Fade withdrew his right hand and put it behind his back. He slowly approached Santos. He gazed quietly at Santos and said, "Now, you finally know my true strength!"
A complicated expression appeared on Santos' face. He looked at Fade and asked in a low voice, "Who the hell are you? Why do you have this kind of strength?"
Fade replied, "It doesn't matter who I am. I just want you to know the only reason why I didn't kill you was because I had something to ask you about."
"You have something to ask me?" Santos was stunned. The colour drained from his face as he thought of something.
Just then, Fade took out a jade token from his pocket and placed it in front of Santos. "This should be the jade token that you want to take back!"
Focusing his gaze, Santos stared at the jade token for a while. "You really have this jade token! How did you get it-" He asked, surprise flashing across his eyes.
Before he could finish his words, Fade had flipped his palm and put away the jade token before saying, "You don't need to know how I got this jade token. Now, I want to ask you, why did you want to take back this jade token? Why is this token so important that you even brought so many people to Dragonville City just to get it?"
Hearing this, Santos's expression changed. He immediately shook his head and replied, "I don't know."
"You don't know?" Fade snorted coldly. "Do you think I'm a kid? Do you think I would believe these words?"
Santos' body trembled as he felt the chill emanating from Fade's body. He shook his head and said, "I can't tell you. This is top secret information from the Wushuang Tower. I am not at liberty to reveal it." "You can't reveal it!" Fade's tone became grim. He then stretched out his right hand and placed it on top of Santos' head. Positive energy started to surge out from his hand. There was a terrifying pressure. It felt as though a boulder weighing a tonne was suspended above Santos' head.
"I, I really can't reveal it. If I leaked this information, the clan would not leave me alone," Santos shouted pleadingly. "Mr. Chen, I've made a mistake, I know I have. I will do whatever you want me to do, but I really can't reveal the secret of the clan!"
Fade's expression did not change upon hearing Santos' plea. He lowered his palm again, this time barely a centimeter away from Santos' head. "You'd rather die than to reveal the secret?" Fade asked. "I, I..." Santos paused, a little hesitant.
Fade did not give him any time to hesitate. He immediately said, "If that's the case, then there's no point in keeping you alive. You can die now..."
Fade's palm was about to bring his palm down as he spoke.
At the most critical moment, Santos suddenly cried out in terror, "I'll tell you. Don't kill me! Please don't."
Fade's palm, which had almost touched Santos's scalp, stopped right at the last moment.
Staring at Santos, Fade uttered coldly, "Tell me
now!!"
Santos glanced over the crowd and said to Fade, "This is a very serious matter. Can we move to another place?"
Fade nodded, turning his head to give Francesca a knowing look.
Francesca understood and immediately said, "Master Chen, you can use my cultivation room!"
"Sure!" Fade nodded. He then picked up Santos with one hand, as if he was carrying a chicken, and dragged him out of the hall.
Callum and other disciples of Wushuang Tower were shocked to see their master taken away in such a sorry state. They stood rooted to the spot, looking at each other, not knowing what to do.
At the same time, Fade had dragged Santos to Francesca's cultivation room.
Flinging Santos onto the ground, Fade sat in a chair and looked at him. "Can you tell me the secret of the jade token now?" Fade asked.
Santos looked a little hesitant. However, his blood ran cold at the sight of Fade's serious expression. "Well, I'll tell you," he said hurriedly.
After a slight pause, Santos said, "Actually, the reason why I value this jade token so much is because it's related to a rumor in Wushuang Tower from twenty years ago."
"What's the rumor about?" Fade asked.
Santos answered, "It's that there is a clue to a treasure hidden in the jade token. So, if we have this jade token, we may be able to obtain the clue leading to treasure."
"A clue and a treasure!" Fade did not expect that the jade token was actually connected to a treasure. He continued to ask, "What treasure is it?"
Santos shook his head and replied, "I don't know what the treasure is. It's a secret that only the senior leaders know. However, I have heard that the treasure is very precious. It was said that the Guardian of Wushuang Tower revered the treasure when he got to know about it 20 years ago."
"Uh..." Fade was truly surprised this time. The Guardian of Wushuang Tower was a Heaven Level master. If the treasure was so highly valued by a top martial artist, it definitely was not something ordinary. After a short pause, Fade continued to ask, "As far as I know, this jade token is only a Wushuang Tower disciple's personal token. How could it be connected to the treasure? Furthermore, to such a precious treasure?"
Santos replied, "Actually, I'm also not sure myself. I only know vaguely about it. It seemed to have something to do with a disciple who was a traitor in Wushuang Tower more than 20 years ago."
"At that time, I heard that Wushuang Tower had a genius disciple who had betrayed the clan. Later, for some unknown reason, he had returned to the clan and mentioned the precious treasure. As a result, he was valued highly by the Guardian and other senior leaders in the clan."
"However, after another few years, this traitor fled the clan again. This had caused everyone in the clan to fly into a rage. They searched everywhere for him, but couldn't find him. It was also because of this that the Wushuang Tower's disciple token had been modified and reissued. All old-version tokens were recalled and replaced with the current token we use."
"However, the old- version tokens that we recovered are incomplete. Among them, one of the rare personal disciple tokens had gone missing. That's why for so many years, the Wushuang Tower has been secretly searching for this token, trying to find the clue to the treasure."
