Chapter 214
Mr. Liu and Winnie Huo who were initially worried gave in to excitement after being momentarily
shocked. They looked at Fade Chen with a proud smile on their faces.
"Fade, I didn''t expect you to be so powerful. It seems that I had no need to stop him just now!" Mr.
Liu smirked.
Winnie looked at him with admiration and praised, "Fade, I didn''t expect that there was a strong
fighterying underneath those bones of yours!"
The crowd in the pavilion were also surprised at this moment.
"Dr. Chen, I didn''t expect you to be a professional in both medicine and martial arts!"
"Dr. Chen, no, Master Chen, can you teach me a move or two?"
"Haha, someone just said that they were going to teach Dr. Chen a lesson, take that!"
The liveliness in the crowd was of stark contrast to Jonathan Dai, who had heard every single word
they said. His proud smile was no longer anywhere to be seen, and
instead he red begrudgingly at Fade.
Fade felt his gaze and turned around to face him, scoffing at him with a cold expression, "Why, are
you still not convinced?"
Jonathan trembled violently and immediately ran out of the pavilion as though someone was after
his life. He saw his bodyguard struggling to get up from the ground, and a menacingly look crossed
his eyes. Then, he motioned to the bodyguard and the both of them quickly continued their journey
uphill.
At the same time, his expression was contorted uglily as he mumbled, "Brat, how dare you take
away my woman and make a fool out of me! Just you wait. As long as we arrive at the Cloud n,
I''ll get them to help me after presenting them with my gift. By then, I will have them teach you a
lesson!"
Just the thought of that filled Jonathan with joy.
As for the bodyguard Uncle Karson, he wiped the blood from the corners of the mouth and
staggered unsteadily after Jonathan.

The people in the pavilion gathered around Fade and started chatting away.
It was also time to remove the herbal paste from Winnie''s knee. After washing the wound once
again with water, it was visible that the blood had stopped flowing from the wound, and the skin was
starting to grow back.
She stood up and tried treading on her injured leg, which to her surprise felt like normal. It was as
though she had never injured her leg at all, which threw Winnie into a frenzied joy. She threw herself
into Fade''s arms without thinking and kept on thanking him repeatedly.
The crowd burst into an uproar. Some people took photos, some wanted to get an autograph and
some even wanted to post the photos on social media. Winnie was anxious about this but could
only chuckle awkwardly.
After joking around for a while, everyone had a good rest, so they set off one after another and
continued to walk up the mountain.
Fade was not in a hurry. He slowed his pace down and chatted with everyone while walking uphill.
Mr. Liu and Winnie were obviously very interested in Fade. Mr. Liu asked about his hometown, his
work, and other work-rted questions, even vaguely hinting about recruiting him. However, after
his refusal, Mr. Liu did not say anything more.
As for Winnie, she stuck herself around Fade and kept asking him if what he said was really
effective in removing scars. Also, she wondered if he had any other herbs that could help with skin
whitening or even weight loss.
Overall, she was befitting of an actress as she was extremely concerned about her personal beauty
and image.
He could only attempt to pass off the questions with a smile. Eventually, he agreed to prepare
something for her to help her deal with scars once he got back to Long City. He also agreed to
prepare some herbs that could help with skin whitening and weight loss.
Winnie was overjoyed upon hearing this. Along the way, she held Fade''s arm intimately and
promised that if he had could contact her if he met with problems in Long City. If he was in trouble,
he could just give them her name and she would try her best to help him.
Just like this, thepany along the way made the mountainous roads less difficult to climb.
As the sun began to set, they finally arrived at the peak of the mountain.
The sunset had dyed the mountains and trees around them with a pretty golden glow that slowly
faded away as though it was bidding them farewell. Standing on top of the mountain, they felt as
though they were on top of the world as they looked down and enjoyed the view from the peak.
Such an impressive scenery made people feel more calm and rxed. Along with the freshness of
the air at the peak of the mountain, the scent of elixir from the Cloud n floated faintly in the air
and made everyone feel even more refreshed andforted.
For a moment, everyone''s eyes were shining as they looked at the majestic and exquisite gates to
the Cloud n.
The Cloud n, which had been hidden from sight for more than 20 years had definitely had their
ce renovated. The mountain gate and the buildings stood majestically and were obviously new
and fresh, giving off a golden touch under the pretty sunset. In addition, fragrant sandalwood the
size of an arm was burning silently in front of a bronze altar in front of the gates. Rising smoke rose
from it along with the faint fragrance that wafted into one''s nose. Taking a step into the n''s doors
felt like stepping into heaven on earth.
Everyone swarmed towards the main gates in an instant, hoping to enter the Cloud n as soon as
possible to pay their respects.
However, upon arriving at the gates, they noticed many people sitting cross-legged on the empty
spots around the gate. They looked up, and saw several solemn-faced Cloud n disciples
guarding the gates.
Everyone was astonished as questions started to flow in.
"What''s going on? Why can''t we go in?"
"Excuse me, can we enter?"
The disciple who guarded the door shook his head mechanically and reported strictly, "No, no one is
allowed to enter now. Please wait outside."
The crowd burst into an uproar as everyone started to fly into a uproar of discontent.
"Why don''t you let us in?"
"What''s wrong with the Cloud n? They weren''t like this to the public in the past, they used to be
really enthusiastic in inviting outsiders into their n."
"Yeah! It''s alreadyte, and if you don''t let us in we''ll have to stay in the mountain overnight. I didn''t
bring any camping equipment with me!"
"Is it because the Cloud n has been promoted to the ck level, so you''re looking down on
ordinary people like us?"
"No, the elders of the Cloud n have always been very kind. They won''t treat us like this."
Some people did not believe it. They tried approaching the disciples and asking them about this, but
was met with their cold and unkind replies, "We apologize, but this is the order of the elders of the
n."
Although everyone was dissatisfied, they had alreadye this far. No one would be willing to
climb down the mountain as it was also getting dark. Hence, they could only sit idly by the door and
wait.
Fade and the others also sat down and started chatting. Some people were carrying food and water
with them, so they ate andughed away as if they were having a pic.
On the other hand, Jonathan and his bodyguard, Karson Mao, who had arrived earlier, were utterly
dumbfounded. They had assumed they would be able to sessfully enter the Cloud n and stay
in one of their guest rooms, hence solving their needs for food and water. Therefore, they did not
think of bring anything to eat with them, and had already finished the only two bottles of water that
they brought up the mountain.
However, they did not expect that they would encounter such a problem here at the mountain peak.
Not only were they were denied ess, they were also hungry and thirsty.
As time went by, the sky began to darken.
Since it was the winter season, the cold winds blew unforgivingly and brought along a frost with
them. The people on top of the mountain shivered uncontrobly as the chill hit their bones.
