The Young Urban Doctor

Although Luo Ziling was the second to make a move, his speed was incredibly fast, and he also believed that he was stronger in terms of force compared to the masked woman, so he prepared to meet her head-on.

It seemed the masked woman had anticipated Luo Ziling’s attack, not bothering to dodge, but instead slightly altering the angle of her kick while increasing her force.

However, the expected dull sound of legs colliding didn’t happen, as Luo Ziling, after launching a kick, saw the opponent change tactics and he instantly adapted.

No longer attempting to clash directly with her leg, he used his height and long legs to leap up, launching a body spin in midair and performing a diagonal chopping kick aimed at her head.

The masked woman was surprised by Luo Ziling’s swift change of tactics, startled, she changed her move again. The moment she kicked out her leg, she bent down to dodge Luo Ziling’s unexpected chopping kick by a narrow margin.

Luo Ziling quickly shifted from a defensive to an offensive stance, not wasting this fleeting opportunity, he rapidly executed another move. As his body rotated, he unleashed another kick, sweeping directly toward her waist. The woman, unable to move swiftly due to consecutive changes in her moves, had no choice but to brace herself and block with her hand.

Luo Ziling’s heavy kick collided with her hand, and she felt a tremendous force transferring through her arm, causing her whole body to stagger diagonally with Luo Ziling’s force, attempting to offset most of the power. But to the masked woman’s surprise, when Luo Ziling’s heavy kick hit her arm, it wasn’t as powerful as she had imagined.

She instantly realized that Luo Ziling had reduced his strength when his kick met her arm.

Luo Ziling was afraid of injuring the masked woman’s arm, so he had held back a little upon contact.

But he didn’t stop there, launching another attack, a series of spinning kicks sweeping toward the masked woman’s body.

This time, the target was both of her legs.

The masked woman hadn’t expected Luo Ziling’s actions to be so rapid, with no pause in between, the next move already coming at a startling speed, which forced her to spring back to dodge.

In a hasty move, she rolled on the ground, rolling several meters away to evade Luo Ziling’s spinning kick.

But before she could get up from the ground, she heard the sound of wind beside her ear. Shocked, she had to awkwardly dodge once again.

Although it sounds like a long story, the entire process took only a few dozen seconds, so fast that Lin Lan, who was watching from the side, hadn’t fully reacted.

Luo Ziling didn’t attack again, but coldly stated, “If you’re not fighting as if your life depended on it, you’re no match for me,”

Lin Lan, who stood watching from the side, was astonished and speechless. Their team captain, almost a god-like figure in their minds, had been defeated by Luo Ziling in less than a minute—was that even possible?

Although she knew Luo Ziling was strong, having defeated two great masters such as Mountain Eagle and Falcon, even after treating Li Haiyang and expending a lot of strength. But Mountain Eagle and Falcon together weren’t the match for the team captain, were they?

“No wonder Mountain Eagle and Falcon were defeated by you,” the masked woman approached Luo Ziling, “You’re very fast.”

“You were careless. I know you’re stronger than you’ve shown,” Luo Ziling looked at the masked woman with a cold smirk, “But as long as I’m not careless, even if you fight to the death, you won’t be able to defeat me.”

The masked woman’s eyes sparkled with a cold glare as she regarded Luo Ziling, but instead of getting angry, she solemnly nodded, “That’s true, I’m not as fast as you. But if I wanted to kill you, I wouldn’t miss a single time.”

Her words stung Luo Ziling a bit, but he admitted there was some truth to what she said, “That’s true, you could shoot me from far away with a gun, or blast me into pieces with a bomb.”

“Join us,” the woman ignored Luo Ziling’s sarcasm and extended a sincere invitation, “Dragon Rise needs a master like you, with your skills and flexible mind, you are destined to take over as the team captain one day.”

The words of the masked woman came as a shock to Lin Lan, who hadn’t expected the captain to speak like that.

She wouldn’t admit that Luo Ziling was powerful, otherwise, the guy would become even more arrogant, and who knows how he’d treat her next time.

After the way he treated her today, if she acknowledged his strength, he’d become more proud and behave even more outrageously toward her.

“Not interested,” Luo Ziling shook his head without hesitating, “I don’t like hanging out with a bunch of psychos.”

“What did you say?” The masked woman seethed, her eyes suddenly filled with a murderous intent.

“You’re a bunch of freaks,” Luo Ziling, unfazed, glared coldly at the masked woman, “challenging me to a fight and then, after losing, still refusing to show your true face. All I can do is laugh. But I understand, women tend to be petty.”

The words of Luo Ziling angered both Lin Lan and the masked woman.

After staring at Luo Ziling for a while, the masked woman didn’t say anything more, but ordered Lin Lan, “Take him back.”

“Yes!” Lin Lan responded and immediately walked over to Luo Ziling. “Come on, I’ll take you back.”

Luo Ziling didn’t say anything else and just followed Lin Lan.

Once in the car, Luo Ziling ignored Lin Lan, instead looking out the car window.

“She can’t show her true face,” Lin Lan explained before starting the car, “Her identity is very special.”

“Fine,” Luo Ziling said, feeling a bit better after hearing Lin Lan’s relatively soft tone and the proactive explanation, “I won’t dwell on it.”

Lin Lan didn’t start the car right away but turned to speak to Luo Ziling again, “Regarding the medication, I hope you will consider it carefully and cooperate with us as much as possible. It’s for the benefit of our country and people and can help reduce our casualty rates.”

It was the first time Lin Lan had taken the initiative to talk so much to him, which took Luo Ziling by surprise, but he didn’t give her a direct answer and instead said delicately, “I’ll discuss it with my grandfather before I decide.”

“Alright,” Lin Lan seemed to want to say more but didn’t, looked at Luo Ziling again, and then started the car.

“Who was that woman just now? Really your team leader?”

“Yes,” Lin Lan confirmed briskly, “She is the legendary Phoenix.”

“Another bird,” Luo Ziling couldn’t help but smile bitterly, “Seems like a fiery phoenix, with a temper as volatile as yours.”

“What did you say?” Lin Lan, just having started moving, slammed on the brakes, bringing the car to an abrupt halt.

Without fear, Luo Ziling looked seriously at Lin Lan, “You heard right. Of the three women I’ve met here, only Shanque doesn’t act cool and is quite enthusiastic. Both you and Phoenix like to play it cool, and both have bad tempers. I hope you can change your personalities.”

His words earned him Lin Lan’s retaliation.
