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..."

*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.
