Invincible Little School Doctor Chapter 2270: Roc Golden Barrier

"You’ve got to be kidding me? The mighty Gu Family’s so-called experts, and this is all the good stuff they had?" Ye Haochuan looked at the rings scattered all over the ground and couldn’t help cursing.

Among these rings, there were very few Cultivation Techniques, but quite a lot of Magical Treasures. The Golden Dragon broadsword Gu Dewei had used was actually a pretty decent Immortal Artifact.

Unfortunately, Ye Haochuan’s hands were already used to the Halberd of Heaven and Earth and the Divine Concealment Sword; switching to other weapons really didn’t feel right. As for defense, none of these things could compare to the big black wok.

So Ye Haochuan gave these Magical Treasures a rather disdainful glance, then casually tossed them to the Divine Concealment Sword.

The Divine Concealment Sword had devoured quite a few Magical Treasures before and had already grown to Pseudo-Immortal Peak. If it swallowed these too, it should be able to break through to an Immortal Artifact, right?

The Halberd of Heaven and Earth couldn’t be upgraded for now; he would have to wait for a chance to go back to Half-Mountain Residence and find Tian Dang to see if it could be improved further.

After dealing with these weapons and Magical Treasures, Ye Haochuan counted up the materials and Red Crystals in the rings as well; he’d made a nice little windfall.

Once all that was done, Ye Haochuan finally took out a Secret Manual, spat lightly, and said, "As the biggest haul this time, don’t you dare let me down!"

"Roc Golden Barrier, First-Level Immortal Law..."

Damn, finally a genuine Immortal Law!

Looking at those few words, Ye Haochuan’s eyes couldn’t help but light up.

For defense, Ye Haochuan had always relied on the Heaven-Penetrating Barrier, but at his current level its effect had been greatly reduced, and it consumed too much energy—really a bit underwhelming. With this Cultivation Technique, he could just make up for that flaw.

This Roc Golden Barrier had been used by Gu Guangyi before. Back then Gu Guangyi was being heavily suppressed by Ye Haochuan’s Formation and Taichi Domain, yet even so, when he activated this Defensive Technique, he still blocked Le Yao’s full-power strike. Its power was obvious.

Immortal Laws were nothing like Immortal Artifacts in terms of how easy they were to obtain. Generally, once someone reached around True Immortal Mid-Stage, getting an Immortal Level weapon wasn’t too difficult, but acquiring an Immortal Law was harder than ascending to the heavens.

In a lower-ranked Mansion Territory like Myriad Realms Mansion, if a single Immortal Law Secret Manual appeared, it would absolutely trigger a mad scramble among all the experts in the entire territory.

Ye Haochuan had found this Cultivation Technique in Gu Dewei’s ring. As for the other True Immortal Experts, even Gu Guangyi, the strongest Cultivation Technique in their rings was only Pseudo-Immortal Peak. How rare Immortal Laws were could be seen from this.

After a long while, Ye Haochuan finally suppressed the excitement in his heart and began quickly browsing through the contents of the Secret Manual.

Off to the side, Le Yao’s eyes were slightly feverish as well, but she didn’t disturb Ye Haochuan. She just quietly sat to the side and cultivated.

After about more than half a day, Ye Haochuan suddenly snapped the Secret Manual shut, his eyes full of laughter.

"What is it? Did you gain some insight into this Secret Manual?" Seeing the joy on Ye Haochuan’s face, Le Yao was utterly stunned.

Immortal Laws were not easy to cultivate. Some people spent years in seclusion comprehending them just to barely grasp their profound mysteries. Gu Dewei, for example, had spent two and a half years to comprehend this Roc Golden Barrier.

For Ye Haochuan to gain insight into the Cultivation Technique in only half a day definitely put him in the category of a genius among geniuses.

Who knew Ye Haochuan would just grin and say, "Insight? That’s nothing. I’ve already basically mastered how to use this Cultivation Technique!"

"What?" Le Yao’s head buzzed, clearly shocked speechless by Ye Haochuan’s words.

A moment later, she pouted unhappily. "You can’t tease people like this. This is an Immortal Law, not some ordinary Low-Level Technique. Even for a Pseudo-Immortal Technique, it takes months to basically master it. And you’re saying you’ve mastered an Immortal Law in just half a day? Who do you think you are, a god?"

Obviously, she had decided Ye Haochuan was lying.

Ye Haochuan didn’t bother explaining. He stood up, his expression turning solemn, and suddenly clapped his hands together.

Only a long, deep cry rang out as Ye Haochuan’s entire body instantly shone with a layer of golden light. In the next instant, a pair of massive golden wings suddenly sprouted from his ribs, wrapping him up into a golden egg.

"You... you really... succeeded?"

Le Yao had seen Gu Guangyi use the Roc Golden Barrier before, so she naturally recognized the strange effect of this skill. She was so shocked her small mouth rounded into an ’O’, big enough to stuff a whole egg in.

"Are you a man or a god? How is it possible to be this fast..." Le Yao’s tone was filled with pure disbelief.

In truth, Ye Haochuan’s Roc Golden Barrier was still far from perfect; its effect was probably greatly inferior to what Gu Guangyi could pull off.

But for someone who had only been comprehending it for half a day to achieve this level was definitely a once-in-a-century miracle.

"Your man could never be ordinary. Don’t worry, with me, for the rest of your life you’ll never be bullied by anyone again!" Ye Haochuan said, brimming with confidence.

Le Yao’s pretty face flushed slightly, but she nodded with a smile.

By Ye Haochuan’s side, she truly felt that long-lost sense of security. It seemed that no matter what happened, as long as Ye Haochuan took action, there was nothing he couldn’t solve.

The two tangled together sweetly for a while before reluctantly leaving the Minor World, summoned the Heaven Escape Bead, and flew toward Qianyun City.

"Master, you’re finally back!" As soon as Ye Haochuan appeared, Ling Zhixing spoke up anxiously.

"What is it? Something happened?" Ye Haochuan asked.

"Something did happen, and it’s not small either!"

There was a bit of a smile on Ling Zhixing’s face as he leaned close to Ye Haochuan’s ear and whispered, "On the very night you left, Dong Quan and Song Kang snuck into the Gu Family and swept their Treasure Vault clean. They moved everything back!"

Ye Haochuan’s eyelids lifted as he said with a half-smile, "How much did they rake in?"

This had actually been within his expectations. If Rui’er hadn’t suddenly turned on him that night and abducted him, he would have been the one leading the team to the Gu Family.

Dong Quan and Song Kang had done quite well. Even in Ye Haochuan’s absence, they had still finished the job.

"A full seventy Superior Red Crystals!" Ling Zhixing said, his voice trembling a little.

One Superior Red Crystal equaled ten thousand Middle-Grade Red Crystals, and one Middle-Grade Red Crystal equaled ten thousand Low-Grade Red Crystals. Seventy Superior Red Crystals meant seven billion Low-Grade Red Crystals!

The Ye Family was already considered very well-funded, yet even they couldn’t casually take out seven billion. This time, they had truly made a killing.

"Well done!" Ye Haochuan’s face lit up with excitement as he continued asking, "What’s the Gu Family’s situation now?"

"On the very next day after the theft, all of the Gu Family’s Direct Lineage fled Qianyun City in a panic, led by Gu Ying. I suppose they’re afraid the Gu Family’s former enemies will come to wipe them out completely," Ling Zhixing said with some emotion.

Who would have thought that one of the top families in Myriad Realms Mansion could fall from the clouds to the mortal dust in just two short days?

And all of this was entirely the work of Ye Haochuan. For a moment, Ling Zhixing’s respect for Ye Haochuan grew even deeper.

Thinking about the Gu Family’s outcome, Ye Haochuan subconsciously glanced at Le Yao.

He’d never been quite sure about Le Yao’s stance on the Gu Family’s remaining forces. If she wanted to uproot them completely, now that the Gu Family’s remnants had fled, hunting them down would be quite troublesome.

Fortunately, there was no change in Le Yao’s expression; clearly she had no intention of exterminating them to the last. Only then did Ye Haochuan breathe a sigh of relief.

After introducing Le Yao to Ling Zhixing and explaining that she would be sitting in as the guardian of the Ye Family Commerce Association from now on, Ling Zhixing was instantly so happy he nearly jumped up.

The Ye Family had always been strong on the outside but weak on the inside. Without a powerful expert to guard them, they were like a child carrying a fortune—constantly anxious, afraid of being targeted by other families.

Even after Dong Quan and Song Kang arrived, once he learned the two had once served the Gu Family, he still didn’t dare relax.

Now that Le Yao had joined, all his worries could finally be laid to rest.

As the three of them were chatting, an Attendant suddenly rushed in from outside in a panic, shouting while he ran, "Head Shopkeeper, this is bad, the Li Family people are here to provoke us again!"
