Invincible Little School Doctor Chapter 2313: The Right Bet!

Facing the threat that was right at hand, Ye Haochuan’s heart hung completely in his throat.

At such close range, even if he wanted to use the combination of the Black Pheonix Soul Extinguishing Bow and the Soul Chasing Arrow again, it was absolutely impossible.

He hadn’t summoned any effective defense; going up against a Void God Expert, he didn’t have the slightest chance of winning.

Two feet... one foot... two inches... half an inch...

Ye Haochuan could already clearly feel the killing intent coming from Tang Yong’s fingertips.

At the very last moment, a muffled groan sounded from the Central Government of the plaza.

"Presumptuous, do you think the South Sect Four Venerable Platform is a place where you can act recklessly?"

Before the words had even fallen, Ye Haochuan felt a gust of biting wind sweep past his ear.

The next moment, Tang Yong, who had been charging forward, suddenly bounced back like a ball.

Ye Haochuan even clearly saw Tang Yong’s expression change from hatred and ferocity to fear and regret, the whole process.

After landing, Tang Yong scrambled up in a wretched manner, bowing repeatedly toward Chen Man in apology, looking utterly servile, as if afraid that a single displeased thought from Chen Man would see him casually killed.

He’d bet right!

The heart Ye Haochuan had been holding finally settled back down.

The reason he’d thrown caution to the wind to rush up onto the Four Venerable Platform was precisely because of this.

The Temple was synonymous with arrogance; in their eyes, these so-called great clans were all just ants. Otherwise, they wouldn’t even have allowed the great clans a chance to step onto the plaza.

What Ye Haochuan had gambled on was that the Temple would not permit anyone other than the participants, under any pretext, to step even half a step onto the plaza.

This was the Temple’s dignity, a kind of arrogance that, to ordinary people, did not allow even the slightest transgression.

Tang Yong had originally still harbored a trace of luck, but in the end, he still experienced the Temple’s inviolable might.

Ye Haochuan had returned alive from Ghost Gate Pass, and at the same time, Tang Yucheng also stepped onto the Four Venerable Platform. Thinking back over the scenes just now, he felt as if he’d been dreaming.

"We actually got out of that alive?" Tang Yucheng felt it was unreal.

Two Void God Experts, plus several True Immortal Cultivators, had encircled them, yet they had actually managed to Breakthrough and survive; this was simply something out of a fairy tale.

At this moment, his feelings toward Ye Haochuan, beyond shock, even carried an impulse to cling tightly to Ye Haochuan’s thigh.

He felt that following Ye Haochuan, any kind of miracle might really happen.

Of course, it wasn’t just him who was shocked, but everyone around the plaza.

They never would’ve thought that this guy, whom they’d always believed had only advanced to the third round by sheer luck, would do something so defiant of the heavens.

Those were two Void God Experts, not clay statues, but two living, breathing super Great Powers!

Even Ye Hongmao, who’d been watching with a mere bystander’s mindset, now stared at Ye Haochuan in stunned disbelief, pondering whether his earlier decision had been correct.

Yes, he was wavering again!

The decision yesterday to arrest Ye Haochuan had been because of Ye Haochuan’s lukewarm attitude toward him, and the rage stirred up when Ye Haochuan threatened him.

His subsequent indulgence of the Tang and Zhu families’ actions was because he felt Ye Haochuan had stirred up a huge disaster, and he didn’t want to offend two great clans at once for the sake of Ye Haochuan alone.

But now he felt that this son seemed even more talented than he had imagined, and if properly nurtured, he could very well push the Ye Family another step forward.

"Bullshit!"

As he thought this, Ye Hongmao suddenly let out a cold snort and said, "With that brat’s attitude, he definitely won’t help me in any way, and he’ll instead bear a grudge over these past two days. Once his Cultivation rises, he might even seek revenge! He’s a threat and must be eliminated as soon as possible!"

Ye Hongmao was not someone who placed much weight on familial affection; otherwise, he wouldn’t have exiled Ye Yichuan to a bitter cold land when he was still so young.

As for the Ye Family’s rise, Ye Yixuan also possessed no small potential and could equally accomplish that goal!

At this thought, a vicious glint appeared in Ye Hongmao’s eyes as he looked at Ye Haochuan.

"Don’t blame me for being ruthless; I gave you a chance, but you were completely unmoved and even kept threatening me. All of this, you forced on me!"

Ye Haochuan had no idea that his lukewarm attitude toward Ye Hongmao had already driven Ye Hongmao to want to get rid of him at any cost.

He was very tired now, a weariness that came from the depths of his Soul!

The Creation Phantom Demon Technique was indeed powerful, but if overused, its backlash was just as unbearable.

Enduring the splitting headache with great effort, he, supported by Tang Yucheng, walked to the edge of the Four Venerable Platform, sat down cross-legged, and raced against time to stabilize his injuries.

If he had a Soul Supplement Pill right now, how could he be in such a sorry state?

Ye Haochuan secretly made up his mind that he must gather the ingredients for a Soul Supplement Pill as soon as possible; otherwise, if he encountered such a situation again, there might not be another Four Venerable Platform where he could safely recover.

"Haven’t seen you in two years, your progress really isn’t small," a cold voice sounded by Ye Haochuan’s ear.

Ye Haochuan looked up and saw that Ju Yuqu was actually standing beside him.

This arrogant fellow had only just noticed Ye Haochuan’s presence, and beyond his shock, there was now a hint of playfulness.

Two years ago, he’d lost by a hair to Ye Haochuan, and the mission to infiltrate Half-Mountain Residence had failed.

In these two years, he’d been cultivating like mad without pause, all for the sake of reclaiming the dignity he’d lost in Ye Haochuan’s hands.

Good Heavens seemed to have sensed his call, arranging their reunion so quickly.

This time, no matter what, he had to defeat Ye Haochuan—no, he had to utterly crush him, to make Ye Haochuan clearly recognize just how vast the gap between them really was.

"You’re not bad yourself," Ye Haochuan replied lightly.

Ju Yuqu said no more; the corner of his mouth lifted slightly, then he returned to his aloof demeanor.

Although he’d only spoken one sentence, it had already shocked the people around them.

"That guy surnamed Ye actually knows Ju Yuqu?" a few participants nearby whispered.

"Yeah, and they seem quite familiar. All this time, this is the first time I’ve seen Ju Yuqu take the initiative to talk to someone. If they weren’t familiar, it’d be absolutely impossible!"

After quietly discussing this for a bit, they all couldn’t help but give Ye Haochuan a few more scrutinizing looks.

When it rains, it pours; when the boat is late, a headwind hits—Ye Haochuan’s current situation was a perfect illustration of these sayings.

Before he could fully recover, Chen Man had already called his name.

"Can you do it?" Tang Yucheng asked worriedly.

From Ye Haochuan’s deathly pale face, it wasn’t hard to see his current state; with his Soul wounded, his performance would definitely be affected, and one misstep could mean eternal damnation.

Ye Haochuan didn’t reply, merely nodded slightly, then slowly walked onto the arena.

His opponent, though not on the Qingfeng List, was still a top expert at the True Immortal Late Stage.

Ye Haochuan’s expression was grave, and he tried his best to maintain his optimal state.

With his Soul damaged, his reaction speed would definitely drop significantly; once someone seized a flaw, he would be in grave danger.

Leaving aside losing his chance to enter the South Sect, given his current situation, if he were thrown off the Four Venerable Platform, what awaited him would be the boundless fury of Tang Yong and Zhu Wengshan.
