Peach Blossom Divine Medical God Chapter 1948 - 1942: Secret Transfer

Shortly after, the two designers arrived. They were the same individuals who had previously designed the Taoist temple, possessing intimate knowledge of its existing structure. Therefore, onsite surveys were deemed unnecessary; simple blueprints would suffice.

"Mr. Chen, the expansion itself isn't the issue. The crucial part is deciding what kind of buildings to add," the designer inquired after reviewing the plans. Given that the Taoist temple already housed nearly every typical structure one would expect, the designers were at a loss for further additions.

Chen Yang didn't provide an immediate answer, instead falling into deep contemplation. He recognized this Taoist temple was far from ordinary, necessitating careful consideration of its future development. This wasn't solely for the expansion of the Chou Alliance's strength but also for Liu the Taoist's establishment of the Red Cloud Taoist Sect. Consequently, substantial architectural planning was already involved. As the second phase of expansion was commencing, it was logical to undertake the entire project in one go.

After thorough deliberation, Chen Yang resolved to triple the Taoist temple's size! It would transform from a modest hill-top structure into a grand complex enveloping the entire mountain. A perimeter wall would also be constructed, encircling the whole hill and creating a city-like enclosure. The present main hall would then serve as the central hub of this new "city."

Once Chen Yang articulated his vision, the designers swiftly commenced the exterior design. Within a brief period, a magnificent Taoist temple materialized on paper. The architectural style and imposing grandeur, though not yet realized, were palpable.

"Let's proceed with this design. It's excellent," Chen Yang affirmed, nodding with evident satisfaction regarding the external structure.

"Understood. We will now move on to the interior design, Mr. Chen. We'll incorporate all the grand halls you've specified; you can review them later," the two designers stated.

"Certainly, thank you for your hard work," Chen Yang replied.

"It's no trouble at all; it's our responsibility," one designer responded with a polite smile, gathering the drawings and heading to a quiet desk in the office to begin their work.

Interior design presented a different challenge compared to exterior design. While the exterior needed only a general outline, the interior required detailed planning across numerous sections, a meticulous and time-consuming process. It was anticipated that they would be working through the night, dedicating all their efforts to the design.

"Chen Yang, it's getting late. You should attend to your own affairs. I will oversee the design drawings and send them to you once completed. There's no need for you to remain here," Li Han suggested, aware that Chen Yang had other pressing matters. The timing was indeed critical, with the scheduled transfer drawing near.

"Very well, we'll be heading out then," Chen Yang responded concisely. He nodded and, accompanied by Ao Min, exited the office and descended via the elevator.

On the ground floor, Chen Tianmin, Qiu Hongguang, and the others had already gathered and organized all the members of the Chou Alliance, preparing for their relocation. Following a day of rest, everyone's spirits had visibly improved. Bloodstains and tattered clothing had been replaced, and they had donned the Taoist robes Ao Min had procured from the Green Cloud Taoist Temple. They now presented the appearance of a group of Taoists attending a formal gathering.

"Yang Zi, all preparations are complete. We can depart at any moment," Chen Tianmin announced immediately upon seeing Chen Yang and Ao Min descend.

Observing the improved morale and the sufficient recovery of the more severely injured members to endure the journey, Chen Yang nodded. "Alright, let's proceed. I've arranged for vehicles at the back entrance. Please be discreet and try not to attract undue attention."

Earlier that afternoon, Chen Yang had contacted Wu Kexin, requesting her to dispatch two dependable bus drivers from the village to await them at the back door of Lintianxia. Their purpose was to transport the Chou Alliance members to Liuhe Village.

"Understood," the assembled group responded in unison. They then departed in stages, taking the elevator to the rear exit to board the buses. With over forty individuals, a single bus would have been too crowded, necessitating the use of two. Once everyone was aboard, the convoy set off, making its way discreetly toward Liuhe Village under the cover of night.

During the journey, the curtains remained drawn, ensuring minimal visibility from the outside, thus preventing any unwanted attention. The travel time from the county to Liuhe Village was approximately half an hour.

By ten in the evening, Liuhe Village was neither bustling nor deserted. This relative quietude was advantageous, as fewer people being around meant the arrival of the two busloads went largely unnoticed. Upon reaching their destination, the group disembarked collectively. Chen Yang had made prior arrangements, securing temporary accommodation for everyone at a hotel situated not far from his residence. The hotel, owned by Wang Jingman, required only a brief mention to facilitate their stay.

With the anticipation of arriving guests, the hotel personnel were fully prepared.

All accommodations were made ready.

In less than ten minutes after disembarking from the vehicles, every individual was comfortably settled.

Once the entire contingent was accommodated, the leaders of the Chou Alliance guided Chen Yang on an excursion through the village.

Recognizing that their stay here would be extended, it was only logical to familiarize themselves beforehand.

Upon exiting the hotel, Qiu Hongguang, He Xiran, Pei Yong, and the others were met with astonishment!

All were practitioners of the Qi Cultivation Realm, and they could readily perceive the abundant spiritual energy permeating Liuhe Village.

Its concentration was several times greater than that found externally.

"With such a profusion of spiritual energy, this is truly a land of fortune! It rivals the auspicious grounds of some major powers," Qiu Hongguang declared.

"Uncle Chen, your dwelling is situated in such a remarkable locale, it's no wonder you possess such formidable strength," He Xiran added with a cheerful demeanor.

She then directed her gaze toward Chen Yang, saying, "And you as well."

Chen Yang's prowess was undeniable, earning him the admiration of all present.

Still young, yet wielding the power of the Spirit Gathering Realm and accompanied by two potent Spirit Gatherers.

This level of might was sufficient to command authority throughout the cultivation world.

Chen Yang responded with a smile, remaining silent.

He then proceeded to escort them on a tour of the Taoist temple.

He explained that this structure would serve as the Chou Alliance's provisional headquarters for the foreseeable future.

Upon the completion of the temple's expansion, they would all relocate there to commence intensive cultivation.

After inspecting the temple, Qiu Hongguang repeatedly nodded, his expression clearly moved.

He had initially deemed Liuhe Village to be advantageous, but its reality surpassed his expectations.

A blessed territory, possessing a secluded and hidden location.

Most crucially, it offered the potential for interaction with the outside world.

Considering their current predicament with the Chou Alliance, even under favorable circumstances, Liuhe Village presented an ideal sanctuary.

"Young friend Chen Yang, our gratitude is profound. Your immense generosity towards our Chou Alliance is something we shall never forget!" Qiu Hongguang proclaimed, his eyes conveying deep appreciation towards Chen Yang.

These were sentiments he had long wished to voice but had not found the opportune moment.

"Elder Qiu, there is no necessity for such formality. You are kin to my Second Uncle, and thus, by extension, you are family to me. Furthermore, our shared animosity towards the Blood Bat Hall negates the need for such elaborate courtesies," Chen Yang replied with a warm smile.

His words resonated deeply, bringing warmth to the hearts of Qiu Hongguang, He Xiran, Pei Yong, and the others.

"Brother Chen Yang, expressing thanks for such a monumental favor is somewhat redundant, but I, Pei Yong, am not particularly eloquent, so allow me to convey this: I shall undoubtedly repay this kindness in the days to come!" Pei Yong, with his unvarnished and direct manner, spoke with heartfelt sincerity.

"Very well, Yang Zi is considered one of us, so there truly is no need for excessive politeness. Moving forward, we must strategize diligently to ensure our Chou Alliance establishes itself and flourishes in this place," Chen Tianmin interjected at this juncture.
