Invincible Little School Doctor Chapter 2076: It Doesn’t Take Much Time to Get Things Done

"Get up now. This beast tide didn’t originate from you, so why does it concern you?" Ye Haochuan asked with a chuckle.

"But this inn is the only business the young master possesses. Now that it’s vanished just like this, young master, doesn’t that mean you..." Ling Zhixing replied with a crestfallen expression.

Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but let out a laugh and stated, "Who told you this is my only business? I have an even grander enterprise in Anxi County. I precisely came this time to bring you along to assist in managing the Anxi County affairs!"

The business in Anxi County was, naturally, the Li Family’s.

He had departed hastily, managing only to secure Niu Kui’s ring; he hadn’t yet attended to the other assets.

However, he was confident that with the Prefecture Master’s unspoken consent, the County Marquis would undoubtedly safeguard the Li Family’s business on his behalf, ensuring the Li Family members couldn't claim even half a single liang more than rightfully theirs.

"Really?" Upon hearing this, Ling Zhixing's spirits visibly lifted. "Oh, right, with demon beasts rampant outside, how did you manage to get in, young master?"

"I'm quite acquainted with the leader of the demon beasts. If I wish to enter, I shall enter," Ye Haochuan responded, projecting an air of casual indifference.

When Ling Zhixing heard this, the last vestiges of worry on his face evaporated instantly, leaving no trace of his earlier despondency.

Before long, Ling Zhixing enthusiastically bustled off to prepare food alongside Ye Haochuan, anticipating his young master would escort him away from this desolate place once they had finished their meal.

"Do you truly possess a method to get us out of here?" After Ling Zhixing departed, Long Keyue inquired, a hint of apprehension in her voice.

"Rest assured, when has your husband ever broken his promise?" Ye Haochuan replied placidly.

Seventy percent of that calmness was a pretense, while the remaining thirty percent stemmed from genuine conviction within his heart.

That conviction arose from the sight of Long Keyue, safe and sound.

The very moment he laid eyes on Long Keyue, the oppressive cloud of anxiety that had shadowed his heart was suddenly dispelled, and his entire state of mind experienced a subtle shift towards openness.

Not long after, Ling Zhixing had the meal prepared. Once the trio had finished eating, Ye Haochuan instructed, "You two should go and get some proper rest in your rooms first. When you awaken, we shall be able to depart!"

"Alright!" Ling Zhixing, without a shadow of a doubt, scampered off to his room with palpable excitement.

Long Keyue, however, did not depart immediately. Pouting slightly, she declared, "You intend to go out alone to accomplish something, don't you? This time, you can forget about attempting to leave me behind to act solo!"

"It's not that I'm unwilling to take you; rather, if I were to bring you along as well, then there would be no one left to ensure Ling Zhixing's protection. In such a scenario, he would truly be facing certain demise!" Ye Haochuan explained with a rueful smile.

"Then... you must be exceedingly careful!" Long Keyue wrestled with her thoughts for a moment before ultimately agreeing with a sense of helplessness.

With that, she swiftly pressed a kiss upon Ye Haochuan’s lips.

That kiss served as both a token of encouragement and an expression brimming with concern.

"Fear not, this young master is not so easily vanquished!" Ye Haochuan flashed a smile, and then his body suddenly went limp, settling into Long Keyue’s embrace.

Long Keyue had long since become accustomed to Ye Haochuan’s stratagems and was not taken by surprise. She simply held Ye Haochuan’s quiescent form in her arms, anxious that he might encounter even the slightest harm.

At that precise instant, Ye Haochuan's soul had already departed the inn, making its way towards a Demon Spirit Dog.

He had previously employed his Heavenly Eye to survey the surroundings. The Fat Worm evidently believed he could not cause any significant disturbance, and thus, although it had stationed some scouts and informants around the inn, its surveillance was far from impenetrable.

Take, for instance, the Demon Spirit Dog, Ye Haochuan's particular nemesis—there was only a single one present within the vicinity.

Ye Haochuan’s Ghost Escape soul shot with astonishing speed into the Demon Spirit Dog’s cranium, engulfing its soul in a single, swift motion.

The soul of a demon beast was intrinsically less potent than that of a human, not to mention that Ye Haochuan's soul strength had already faintly ascended to the level of Immortal Transformation Mid-Stage.

In a short span of time, the Demon Spirit Dog's soul was wholly consumed by Ye Haochuan, and the Demon Spirit Dog itself slumped motionlessly to the ground, its life force gradually ebbing away.

However, from an external perspective, its physical form exhibited no discernible abnormalities whatsoever, appearing as if it had merely fallen into a deep slumber.

Ye Haochuan reopened his eyes and felt a gentle, soft sensation upon his face. His heart stirred, and he wantonly rubbed his face against that comforting softness.

"You scoundrel, what are you doing?" Long Keyue’s beautiful face instantly turned crimson as she gently pushed Ye Haochuan away.

Although she and Ye Haochuan had long since acknowledged their mutual affections, they had never progressed to that ultimate step, leaving her inevitably prone to moments of shyness.

"Tell me, we’ve already ‘eloped,’ so to speak. Isn’t it about time we found an opportune moment to address that crucial matter?" Ye Haochuan inquired with a lascivious chuckle.

To have brought her into the Immortal Realm behind the Long Family’s clandestine knowledge was, in Ye Haochuan’s mind, akin to a secret elopement.

The mere thought sent a blush creeping up Long Keyue’s neck, causing her to bury her face against her chest and whisper with the faintness of a mosquito, "You pervert, is this truly the proper moment for such frivolous notions?"

"You know, engaging in that particular activity doesn’t demand an exorbitant amount of time..."

"You are utterly shameless! I shall not be offering you my maiden experience in a crude location such as this!" Long Keyue declared, her voice suddenly firm.

"Very well then, upon our egress, we shall seize the earliest opportunity!" Ye Haochuan chuckled with a hint of mischief. "Just contemplating it is enough to build anticipation!"

The instant his words concluded, Ye Haochuan’s form dissolved into the ether.

"That rascal! He’s just too wicked..." Long Keyue, acutely aware that Ye Haochuan had departed to address pressing matters, couldn't help but murmur shyly, though a soft complaint lingered on her lips.

Yet, beneath her spoken displeasure, a clear smile graced her features, hinting at a subtle undercurrent of anticipation.

Elsewhere, deprived of the Demon Spirit Dog’s keen senses, Ye Haochuan, still shrouded in his Invisibility, effortlessly bypassed the perimeter of guards surrounding the inn.

His Heavenly Eye remained perpetually active. Any distant sighting of demonic beasts, such as the Demon Spirit Dog, prompted an immediate course correction, ensuring avoidance.

This present undertaking, unlike his prior frantic maneuvers, was guided by a distinct objective. He proceeded directly toward a singular point, significantly diminishing the likelihood of detection.

Along this focused path, and with remarkable speed, he reached his intended destination just as his Invisibility Ability began to deplete his Spiritual Energy.

Indeed – this was the very locale where, merely an hour or two prior, he had fallen prey to the Blood Pupil Demon Ape.

His objective here was not retribution against the Blood Pupil Demon Ape, naturally, but rather the human prisoners held within this very courtyard.

Previously, Ye Haochuan had operated under the assumption that Long Keyue might be confined within these walls, an assumption that led to his detection upon his initial, forceful entry.

Selecting a secluded vantage point, he quietly scaled the surrounding wall, breaching the compound.

However, the instant his feet made contact with the ground within the courtyard, he felt a jarring disconnection. The Spiritual Energy and Flower Energy residing within his Dantian were abruptly severed, slipping entirely beyond his command.

Simultaneously, his Invisibility was forcibly dispelled, a direct consequence of this sudden deficit in Spiritual Energy.

"I sensed something was amiss!" Ye Haochuan, evidently anticipating such a development, remained unperturbed. He proceeded by touch, navigating towards the courtyard's central area.

Even stripped of his Invisibility, the courtyard teemed with human presence. Within such a milieu, Ye Haochuan's reappearance was unlikely to trigger alarm among the external demonic sentinels.

Before long, Ye Haochuan located the individual he sought...
