I alone am the Honoured One! - Chapter 105

Chapter 105: Against the woman!
*creek* Zhao Tian entered the room and saw the old woman lying on the bed weakly. As both Zhao Tian and Mei Xiu entered the room, Li Qianzhi raised her head and smiled “Tian!”

Zhao Tian walked to the chair beside the bed and sat on it. Li Qianzhi glanced over at Mei Xiu “Xiu’er, you were cooking, right? you can go and continue that…”

“Um, okay.” Mei Xiu nodded her head and left the room. Li Qianzhi smiled looking at Zhao Tian “My body is getting weaker and weaker… seems like there are no medicines for old age haha” she muttered with a chuckle.

Zhao Tian had a frown on his face and inserted his hand in his pocket taking a pill bottle from his storage ring “Grandma, I have a good medicine for you that would instantly cure your illness.”

Li Qianzhi squinted her eyes looking at the pill bottle “Pills created by cultivators?”

Zhao Tian raised an eyebrow “Grandma, you know about cultivators?” With a light laugh, Li Qianzhi nodded, “My husband is Li Jie’s friend.. that means my Husband is also a military officer.”

“He told me some things about cultivators and I know quite the basic stuff but I am surprised that you were also a cultivator… haha. Seems like Xiu’er got a strong friend.”

Zhao Tian just smiled “Since you know, I don’t have to explain much, this is body temperi-” “No need, Tian.” Li Qianzhi interrupted with a sigh.

Li Qianzhi spoke “I have lived my life enough… I don’t wanna prolong it anymore. It is already time to meet my Husband…”

“I have been a burden to Xiu’er over the past years and she worked hard to pay my hospital bills and take care of herself too. I… don’t wanna bother her anymore.”

Zhao Tian spoke “You don’t have to worry about money…” Li Qianzhi shook her head “No, Tian… I will remain a burden to her and as I said… I don’t want to prolong this life.”

She smiled looking at Zhao Tian “But before leaving, I am glad that a good guy like you is her friend. Now I don’t have to worry about her and can be rest assured.”

A sigh escaped Zhao Tian’s lips “Are you sure about this?” Li Qianzhi nodded her head “Damn sure, haha.”

After a little while, Mei Xiu entered the room “Tian, the food is ready, and Grandma…” Li Qianzhi shook her head “I am not hungry right now. Go and serve for Tian first.”

…

*creek* Mei Xiu again pushed the door’s room and Li Qianzhi turned her head “Is he gone?” Mei Xiu smiled sweetly “Yeah, he left after eating lunch.”

Seeing her granddaughter smile, Li Qianzhi couldn’t help but tease “Seems like you got so close with him, Xiu’er…”

“I…” Mei Xiu muttered before looking away embarrassed. Seeing her granddaughter’s face Li Qianzhi was surprised “Don’t tell me, Xiu’er you actually managed to…”

…

*click* As Zhao Tian opened the car door to enter *tap* *tap* he heard distinct footsteps and turned his head curiously. There he saw a policewoman walking towards him.

Huh? I couldn’t sense her presence at all. He mumbled in his mind and narrowed his eyes as he felt a powerful aura emanating from the woman startling him.

“Seems like you are not hiding anymore, Miss Cai.” He spoke, he always felt the policewoman was secretly a cultivator as he noticed a spark of astral energy within her in the past whenever he saw her.

But now she is not hiding and Zhao Tian tried to sense her cultivation ‘Fuck! she is more powerful than me. Monarch stage?’ These thoughts raced through his mind as he narrowed his gaze.

*tap* Cai Luo quickly walked over to him and *clank* “Mr.Tian, you are getting arrested for murder.”

Huh? Zhao Tian gazed down at the handcuffs that encircled his wrists and *crack* he broke the metal handcuffs into pieces, a small frown on his face “For murder?”

Cai Luo sighed in her heart as she knew he would break it easily. *grip* In the next instant, she firmly clasped onto his right wrist, her grip tightening. “Yeah for murder.” she nodded as she dashed into the air. *woosh*

In mid air, Zhao Tian raised his left arm punching her and Cai Luo easily blocked his punch with her left hand. *fwish* As he raised his leg to kick her, Cai Luo let go of his hand dodging his kick.

*flick* Using space ripple steps, Zhao Tian instantly retreated back a few steps creating distance between himself and the policewoman, as he raised his head looking at the policewoman floating in front of him.

‘Why am I always getting chased by some problems? Now, I have to deal with this woman?’

Cai Luo spoke a little confused, “The first time I saw you, you were a regular human but now, suddenly you are in the 8th level of Sovereign Astral Stage, how?”

“I don’t know, maybe your Astral Sense is defective.” The reason is that in the beginning, Zhao Tian’s cultivation base was hidden by Xia Shenyi but now Zhao Tian is concealing his aura by his own accord.

“Quite a nasty tongue you have.” *fwish* She disappeared from his sight and Zhao Tian felt a punch coming toward him. He instinctively took his sword from the storage ring and *clank* he blocked her punch with the sword.

*woosh* But the force sent him hurling in the air and Zhao Tian quickly stabilized his body ‘She is not using her full power.’

Hmm? Cai Luo glanced at her hand “My hand is kind of tingling… what is that sword? What grade?” she took a glimpse of the black sword in Zhao Tian’s hand.

*woosh* Cai Luo again appeared in front of Zhao Tian trying to punch him. *clank* Zhao Tian again parried with the sword because he knew even if she was holding back, taking her punch on his body would be fatal.

*clank* *clank* *clank* The sound of metal clashing filled the air as Cai Luo continued to do a barrage of punches around him as if she was testing him and Zhao Tian, his movements fluid, deftly blocked every punch that came his way.

*fwoosh* “Are you really in the Sovereign stage? Your reflexes and power seem like you are in the Emperor Stage.” A low mutter escaped her lips.

*clank* The two of them again collided in the air exchanging blows and Zhao Tian know very well that she is holding back her strength and she is just toying with him.

‘Got you!’ Blocking her punch with the sword, he deftly swirled the sword in his hand *sleech* as it pierced through the flesh in her arm.

Hm? Cai Luo raised an eyebrow looking at the injury on her hand and stopped her attack “Not bad!” she spoke squinting her eyes.

*swoosh* Zhao Tian retracted the sword back into his storage ring and asked “So did I pass whatever you tried to do just now?”

“Oh? You realized I was testing you.” Cai Luo asked and Zhao Tian squinted his eyes “Are you getting revenge now for trying to kiss you?”

Cai Luo shook her head “I’ll punish you for that later…this time, I came here to talk with you about the death of Zhu Xian.”

Zhao Tian rolled his eyes “Ah, yeah… I am the one who killed him.”

Cai Luo spoke looking at him in a stern voice “You know very well, that cultivators like you should not intervene in normal humans’ problems and kill them. It is against the government’s peace treaty with the cultivators.”

Zhao Tian shrugged “I saw a woman getting kidnapped by a guy and that guy tried to rape her. So I killed that guy and saved the woman… I don’t see anything wrong here. And he is the one to first send people to kill me.”

Hearing the story, Cai Luo narrowed her gaze “Well that’s a valid reason I guess. Any man trying to rape a woman should be killed obviously.”

Zhao Tian gave a faint nod, curiosity dancing in his eyes “Are you the Ombudsman of this nation?” he asked because he heard from Li Jie that the Ombudsman is the strongest cultivator the government has and Cai Luo is in the Monarch stage.

“The Ombudsman?” She again glanced at her outfit. “No, I am just using this police job to blend in with the normal world, I am not necessarily with the government.”

“And the Ombudsman of this nation is an old man, not me.”

“I see…” Zhao Tian murmured and Cai Luo spoke “Be careful doing things like this. I know you are powerful, but the Zhu family has the backing of one of the top sects in the Holy Land of Zhenzhu.”

“If you acted so flashy, you might get caught in the eyes of the people from Zhenhzu. Be cautious… I am leaving you with a warning only because of that ‘one’ thing.”

Eh? “What one thing?”

*swish* But he didn’t get his answer as she was already gone.
