Supreme Divine Physician in the City Chapter 1839 - 1840: He’s Eight Blocks Ahead of You
Previously on Supreme Divine Physician in the City...
"That boy Ye Xuan is here too?"
Upon hearing this news, Zhan Ying’s sword-like eyebrows raised and his fighting spirit surged.
The young man said, "Yes, that scoundrel killed You Chengzhi at the Martial Arts tournament. Although You Chengzhi wasn’t particularly important in the Qiao Family, he was still one of them. The second young master is extremely angry about it."
"Good, good, good!"
Zhan Ying laughed maniacally, repeating the word "good" three times.
After laughing, Zhan Ying squinted, his dark pupils exuding a cold and murderous intent: "Lou Xinyu and his sister are trying to get involved in the treasure hunt, that’s one thing. But for Ye Xuan, that nobody dares to come too? He’s seeking death!
Report back to the second young master, Zhan Ying will never fail his mission!"
The young man replied, "Yes!"
...
The pavilion stood out in the boundless ice and snow, cold and desolate, yet singularly beautiful.
Lou Xinyu remained as flawless as ever.
He wore a brocade robe, clean and refined, noble and elegant. His facial features were handsome and delicate, defying masculine traits, yet without losing his manly vigor.
This man was perfect no matter the time or place.
Sitting in the pavilion, it was as if its lonely beauty was overshadowed by his aura; any surrounding scenery paled in comparison to his unmatched charm.
He was too perfect.
At the moment, he held a financial magazine from the East Sea, intently admiring the cover featuring a stunning woman, finding satisfaction in viewing it endlessly.
In fact, for some time now, spending three hours each day admiring Lin Tong had become his unfailing routine.
"So beautiful, she is truly beautiful."
"Such a timeless beauty, throughout history, who else could match her but me, Lou Xinyu?"
"Through the ages, apart from her, who else could be worthy of me, Lou Xinyu?"
"..."
Lou Xinyu clicked his tongue in endless praise.
Just then, a most disagreeable voice sounded: "I say, Lou Xinyu, you are the eldest son of the Lou Family, can’t you have a bit of backbone? How can you do such a lowly thing?"
Lou Xinyu frowned at the voice, and upon looking up, saw the figure walking towards him.
It was his sister, Lou Yaoyao.
Siblings sharing the same bloodline, with Lou Xinyu’s unmatched beauty, how could Lou Yaoyao be ordinary?
She was alluring, sexy, yet pure and vibrant, such a complex blend of qualities that any man, upon seeing her, would be deeply captivated by her unique charm.
However, Lou Xinyu felt indifferent towards her because she was his sister and loved to poke fun at him.
Lou Xinyu gave Lou Yaoyao a cold glance and said nonchalantly, "A graceful lady and a gentleman’s pursuit; I am simply appreciating her beauty without impure thoughts. How can you call it a lowly act?"
"How you actually feel, only you would know. Anyway, your behavior in the Mortal World is considered the actions of a loser," Lou Yaoyao jested.
"Humph." Lou Xinyu didn’t want to engage, and he grunted coldly, "Speak, what’s the matter."
"Naturally, it’s good news, great news for you." Lou Yaoyao squinted her eyes and smiled warmly: "My beloved, your rival, Ye Xuan, is here."
"He’s here?" Lou Xinyu was surprised, clearly taken aback.
"How do you feel? Surprised, right?" Lou Yaoyao chuckled, "I don’t know where he heard the news, but he knows about this treasure in the Northwest. Hmm... This is your once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
Lou Xinyu asked, "What opportunity?"
"To kill him, of course." Lou Yaoyao grinned, "Last time in the East Sea, you didn’t dare act against him alone. This time in the Northwest, the Qiao Family’s Zhan Ying will definitely make a move on him. If you join in, wouldn’t he be doomed?"
"I said before, I didn’t act because I wasn’t afraid of him, just didn’t wish to kill him." Lou Xinyu glanced at Lou Yaoyao, mocking her: "Also, didn’t you say he’s your beloved? Could it be that you, Lou Yaoyao, wish for your beloved to meet a quick demise?"
"What if he’s my beloved? Just because I like him, doesn’t mean you wouldn’t want to kill him or Zhan Ying wouldn’t act against him." Lou Yaoyao shrugged, "Furthermore, the more you act against him, the more it gives me a chance to help him, who knows, my life-saving grace might make him fall in love with me at first sight."
Lou Xinyu: "..."
In this world, there are two people he couldn’t understand; one was Ye Xuan, the other was this damned Lou Yaoyao.
They grew up together, but Lou Xinyu never understood what goes on in Lou Yaoyao’s mind.
"Don’t worry, even if I want to kill him, I won’t do it this time." Lou Xinyu said calmly, "In fact, I want to ensure he doesn’t die."
Lou Yaoyao asked, "Why?"
"Because he can strengthen my future woman." Lou Xinyu said with a hint of a smile, "This guy has no grand ambition, he just wants to be ordinary. Do you think he really came for the treasure?"
Lou Yaoyao said, "If not for the treasure, then what, to admire the scenery?"
"It’s the Sky Mountain Blood Lotus." Lou Xinyu explained, "The Sky Mountain Blood Lotus is said to revive the living and resurrect the dead. These tales are certainly exaggerated, but if it falls into his hands, using his Medical Technique, he could surely create a Miracle Medicine.
He wants to use the Sky Mountain Blood Lotus to transform those around him from ordinary weak women into elite fighters. Right now, he indeed needs those around him to become stronger."
"Oh..." Lou Yaoyao nodded repeatedly, "Sounds like it makes a lot of sense!"
Lou Xinyu continued to admire Lin Tong’s peerless looks, with a hint of a smile, "Since it’s beneficial for her, why would I destroy it? Even if I want to kill him, I’ll wait until he trains my woman into a top-notch expert."
Lou Yaoyao pursed her lips, "You speak as if you’d be a match for him, Lou Xinyu, don’t understate yourself. Ye Xuan is leagues ahead of you!"
Lou Xinyu: "..."
...
Day and night alternated, two cycles passed.
Finally, the train from East Sea arrived in the Northwest region.
The heavy and loud whistle reverberated as the train steadily halted at the Northwest train station, sparse figures slowly emerged from the station.
"It’s f***ing cold!"
"Damn, I’m suffocating!"
"This Northwest Plateau truly lives up to its name. The altitude is too high, the oxygen is thin; if someone with poor health came here, they’d be gone in minutes!"
"..."
Various figures cursed as they were tormented by the extreme cold and harsh weather.
Only two people wearing thin clothing seemed unaffected, feeling as if it were spring or autumn, at ease and carefree.
