Invincible Little School Doctor Chapter 2157: Only Three Left?
Previously on Invincible Little School Doctor...
Hearing Ye Haochuan speak so convincingly, Xu Linglan finally believed him a bit.
"If that’s the case, then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and start the alchemy!" Xu Linglan urged.
Ye Haochuan didn’t waste any more time arguing with her. He had all the necessary ingredients for the pill, and after two hours, he handed over four furnaces’ worth, totaling twenty-four pills, to Xu Linglan.
Just as he finished explaining how to use them, Xu Linglan eagerly left.
Ye Haochuan tidied up a bit before shaking his head and leaving.
The two arrived at a city one after the other.
Only then did Ye Haochuan realize that this place was also experiencing a great battle. However, since Xu Linglan and their battle with the eight-winged angels was at such a high level, they didn’t want the residual impact to harm their own cultivators, so they changed the battlefield.
Originally, the battle in this city was not favorable for the Sky Hunting Association, but after the eight-winged angels fled and the director returned victoriously, the situation on the battlefield reversed dramatically, and the Sky Hunting Association won shortly thereafter.
Seeing Ye Haochuan and Xu Linglan return, the director hurriedly ran over, his eyes showing a hint of surprise toward Ye Haochuan, then becoming playful.
Xu Linglan seemed to understand something and coldly said, "Don’t jump to conclusions, or don’t blame me for being rude."
The director, hearing this, immediately closed his mouth dejectedly.
This scene was seen by the surrounding members of the Sky Hunting Association, causing some whispers.
They always thought the director was the highest leader of the Sky Hunting Association, who would have thought that after the uprising, the director seemed to have changed and acted as if he recognized Xu Linglan as the leader.
And Xu Linglan, who had always appeared as an ordinary person, suddenly transformed into the top expert of the Sky Hunting Association.
Such a change, no matter how one looked at it, seemed incredible.
After warning the director, Xu Linglan seemed unwilling to waste words with them and turned to leave.
After Xu Linglan left, the director, shedding his previous respectful demeanor, said to Ye Haochuan with a peculiar grin, "You really have a way, capturing her so quickly?"
"Of course, don’t you know who I am?" Ye Haochuan replied with a cheeky smile.
However, the smile only lasted half a second before turning serious.
"Although we won this time, the situation is still not optimistic for us. What’s your next move?" Ye Haochuan, now instinctively standing on the same side as the Sky Hunting Association, asked.
When it came to serious matters, the director also put away his frivolous demeanor and answered, "The Holy See’s power is much stronger than we imagined. This time, the Holy See lost three eight-winged angels, with four remaining. If we’re careful, we might still have a chance. But the strongest among them, Xierui, hasn’t shown up yet, which is worrisome."
"Xierui?" Ye Haochuan suddenly chuckled, "Xierui is no longer a threat, because he has already fallen into my hands!"
At this point, Ye Haochuan remembered Li Yun and Xierui, and with a thought, he summoned back the Heaven Escape Bead.
"What? You mean Xierui is already..."
The director stared at Ye Haochuan in shock, and after a moment, guessed, "Could it be, the person who killed Mason and led Xierui to chase after him was you?"
Ye Haochuan nodded complacently, appearing as if expecting praise.
"That’s great! This means the Holy See only has three eight-winged angels left. We’re sure to win! I need to quickly inform Xu Linglan about this..." The director clearly had no interest in praising Ye Haochuan and was about to leave immediately.
"Wait!" Ye Haochuan quickly stopped him, "Weren’t there eight eight-winged angels? Xu Linglan killed three, and with Xierui, that should be four, so there should still be four left. Why are there only three now?"
The director gave a mysterious smile, "One of them had already fallen long ago, so now there are only three left."
Hearing this, Ye Haochuan felt a sense of joy, but then immediately recalled another concern, "Even if there are only three eight-winged angels, if that legendary sixteen-winged angel appears, we have no chance at all."
"Don’t worry, I have a way to ensure the sixteen-winged angel doesn’t appear," the director replied with a mysterious smile and prepared to leave.
At that moment, a Nascent Soul Cultivator suddenly stepped forward to report, "Director, we’ve captured some servants of the Holy See’s angels, one of whom is Asian. How should we handle them?"
If they were Caucasian, there would be no question, they would be killed directly. But Asians were different; the Sky Hunting Association aimed to restore freedom to Asians. When encountering Asians in the Holy See, they really didn’t know how to deal with them.
Unexpectedly, the director impatiently said, "Since they have become servants of the angels, they are our enemies. Don’t overthink, just kill them."
Leaving such a command, the director hurriedly left.
The Nascent Soul Cultivator, having received the order, went to carry it out.
Ye Haochuan didn’t pay much attention at first, but when he glanced in the direction the Nascent Soul Cultivator was leaving, he suddenly frowned slightly.
The Nascent Soul Cultivator returned to the team, said a few words to his companions, and they looked at the beautiful Asian woman in their group with a lustful smile in their eyes.
"Since we have to kill her, why not have some fun before doing it? Such a beautiful woman, it would be a shame to just kill her!" one of them jokingly suggested.
The Nascent Soul Cultivator nodded slightly, looking at the woman with a heated gaze.
With that, they couldn’t wait to drag the woman into a small room nearby.
The woman seemed to have anticipated her fate and didn’t resist or struggle, but from her eyes, one could see a hint of fatal determination.
"Wait!" Ye Haochuan suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Mr. Ye, do you have any instructions?" The Nascent Soul Cultivator recognized Ye Haochuan and spoke respectfully.
Even though they hadn’t witnessed Ye Haochuan helping Xu Linglan kill an eight-winged angel, they knew he had crafted the Twin Dragons Binding Gold Pill to help the director and Xu Linglan break through, so their respect for him was genuine.
"I find this woman pleasing to the eye, hand her over to me," Ye Haochuan said calmly.
The few of them expressed a hint of regret in their eyes. They thought they could finally taste the charm of a stunning beauty, but unexpectedly, they were intercepted, and this person was so formidable that they dared not utter a word of complaint.
The Nascent Soul Cultivator hesitated and said, "But the director said to kill this woman, wouldn’t it be..."
"Don’t worry, I’ll explain it to the director!" Ye Haochuan smiled.
The Nascent Soul Cultivator was relieved and reluctantly left with the others.
"Ye Haochuan, why... are you saving me?" The woman looked at Ye Haochuan in confusion.
"After all, we’re old acquaintances, I couldn’t just watch while you’re being mistreated, right?" Ye Haochuan replied with a smirk.
The woman gave Ye Haochuan a complicated look, and after a moment, softly said, "Thank you!"
"Alright, no need for polite talk!"
Ye Haochuan laughed, "Come with me for now. I’ll talk to the Sky Hunting Association members to give you a chance to join. But from now on, you can’t have any more ties with the Holy See."
Upon hearing this, the woman’s eyes revealed a hint of peculiarity, but she quickly lowered her head to hide it, softly saying, "I understand."
