The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3397: No One Can Make Me Kneel! (Fourth Update)
Previously on The Divine Urban Physician...
Historically, Martial God Mountain and Dragon Valley have maintained a policy of mutual non-interference, existing without conflict or resentment. Thus, the unexpected assault by the Blood Dragon caught them completely off guard.
"Blood Dragon Emperor, outsiders are not permitted on the grounds of Martial God Mountain. I suggest you depart at once."
Martial God Ming Gu directed a frigid glare toward the Blood Dragon. Although Martial God Mountain was protected by a defensive barrier designed to repel intruders, it proved useless against the current threat. Under the Blood Dragon's command, tens of thousands of demonic dragons swarmed the skies, and a vast legion of the dragon race stood guard. Such a barrier could never hope to hold them back.
Within the Blood Dragon's aura, Martial God Ming Gu sensed a faint thread of Karma linked to Ye Chen—an omen that filled him with unease.
He had intended to launch an offensive against the Demon Suppression Hall under the guise of seeking retribution. However, if the truth were revealed—that Martial God Mountain was actually the party in the wrong, and that Han Zui’s own depravity had led to his downfall—it would lead to a disastrous situation for him.
"Haha, you plot to murder my master, yet you expect me to remain a mere spectator?"
Descending from the heavens, the Blood Dragon shifted into human form. He flourished the Emperor’s scepter, causing the Emperor Dragon Ball to radiate a brilliant glow. Divine light coalesced, manifesting into a mystical scroll.
"Karma Reappearance, Heavenly Crystal Viewing Technique!"
As the Blood Dragon cried out, sacred light erupted from the scroll, displaying a sequence of vivid memories. The scenes depicted Han Zui within the Demon Suppression Hall, driven by sinister lust as he attempted to violate Xiao Bai and Xia Ruoxue. It further showed him using Yun Hongchen as a human shield, while Ning Xuanhai sacrificed a treasure and abandoned his own disciple to ensure his survival.
Dragon Valley is the custodian of the Eight Great Divine Abilities: the Shocking Lightning Demon Thunder Blade, the Carefree Feather Transformation Sword, the Nine Cold Yin Sha Force, the Bi Yun Slash Divine Light, the Geng Jia Giant Wood Needle, the Taizhou Yuan Magnetic Light, the Heavenly Crystal Viewing Technique, and the Star Dominating Body Technique.
Following the reforging of the Emperor’s scepter, the Dragon Valley Elders had sealed the essence of these Eight Great Divine Abilities within the artifact.
Among these, the Heavenly Crystal Viewing Technique possesses the power to calculate karma and replay the threads of destiny.
Even though the Blood Dragon had not personally cultivated these Eight Great Divine Abilities, the scepter’s energy allowed him to activate the Heavenly Crystal Viewing Technique with ease.
Furthermore, because he and Ye Chen shared a soul connection, he could effortlessly deduce various karmic paths.
Consequently, Han Zui’s many transgressions and Ning Xuanhai’s treacherous behavior were laid bare for all to see under the light of the technique.
Seeing these revelations, Martial God Ming Gu’s expression shifted violently.
Ning Xuanhai, meanwhile, watched the scroll in horror. His aged face turned deathly pale before flushing with a mixture of rage and shame.
His actions—protecting a criminal like Han Zui and disregarding the life of Yun Hongchen—were now public knowledge. He trembled uncontrollably, consumed by the weight of his exposed sins.
Throughout the entirety of Martial God Mountain, the disciples stood frozen in shock at the unfolding images.
They had previously believed that the Demon Suppression Hall was the aggressor, seeking to humiliate their Sect. Now, it was clear that Martial God Mountain was the true offender. Han Zui’s death was a just punishment for his vile acts, and Ye Chen’s intervention was entirely warranted.
The man they had once honored as their great senior brother was nothing more than a hollow, despicable man!
Even Ning Xuanhai, the respected second-in-command of Martial God Mountain, was revealed to be a hypocritical villain.
A heavy silence fell over the crowd. The disciples, who had been burning with a desire for vengeance and ready to march on the Demon Suppression Hall, were now utterly speechless.
Han Zui’s crimes were so heinous that Ye Chen’s decision not to hold the entire Sect accountable was an act of mercy. To strike back now would be the height of absurdity.
"Ming Gu, do you have any defense left to offer?"
The Blood Dragon’s eyes were cold, his words cutting through the air like blades.
"Silence!"
With a face contorted in fury, Martial God Ming Gu swung a powerful palm, unleashing a wave of force that shattered the Heavenly Crystal scroll into fragments.
"You insolent Sin Dragon! You dare flaunt such a trivial, deceptive trick in my presence?"
Martial God Ming Gu could never acknowledge the truth shown by the Heavenly Crystal Viewing Technique. To do so would mean the total collapse of Martial God Mountain's prestige and the ruin of his own legacy.
"You use such foul sorcery to poison the Dao heart of my disciples. For this, you shall die. Divine Martial Earthshattering Strike, be suppressed!"
Without hesitation, Ming Gu struck out with his hand, releasing a massive surge of Martial God Battle Intent. The overwhelming power erupted from his palm, surging toward the Blood Dragon with intent to crush him.
He aimed to end the Blood Dragon with a single, decisive blow to regain control of the situation.
Roar!
The sky trembled as the violent battle intent swept forward.
Above, the tens of thousands of demonic dragons and spectral forms recoiled in fear, pushed back by the sheer force of the attack.
The fact that Martial God Ming Gu’s personal aura could rival an entire dragon army proved just how terrifying his strength truly was.
"Bi Yun Slash Divine Light!"
The Blood Dragon remained unperturbed. Calmly, he flourished his scepter, causing the Emperor Dragon Ball to flash. A vibrant, emerald light—sharp enough to sever the very clouds—shot forward like a lethal wind blade.
Whoosh!
The Bi Yun Slash Divine Light collided head-on with the Divine Martial Earthshattering Strike.
In a heartbeat, the supposedly unstoppable battle intent was torn asunder.
A sharp pain lanced through Martial God Ming Gu’s hand. Looking down, he gasped to see a deep gash across his palm, exposing the white of his bone.
"Source! Great Yuan Qi! You actually possess the profound mystery of 'Source' within your body!"
Terror flickered in Martial God Ming Gu’s eyes. He stared at the Blood Dragon in sheer disbelief, involuntarily backing away.
In terms of raw momentum, they were evenly matched.
However, while his Divine Martial Earthshattering Strike was a prestigious Thirty-Three Heavens Hongmeng Ancient Technique, the Blood Dragon’s Bi Yun Slash Divine Light was merely a standard ability.
Yet, in a direct clash, he had been soundly defeated!
The reason was the Blood Dragon's mastery over 'Source' and the immense Great Yuan Qi he wielded.
When infused with Great Yuan Qi, even a basic technique can rival the power of a Hongmeng Ancient Technique, making the user nearly invincible.
It allowed one to overcome opponents of a much higher Cultivation level!
With this source energy, the Blood Dragon was more than capable of standing toe-to-toe with Ming Gu.
Such was the peerless dragon might of the Blood Dragon!
"I will grant you one opportunity. Drop to your knees and confess your errors. Seek my master's forgiveness, and I shall spare your life."
The Blood Dragon stood firm, scepter in hand, as he looked down upon Martial God Ming Gu with disdain.
"That brat, Ye Chen, is your master?"
Ming Gu’s face twisted in shock. He knew Ye Chen was only a cultivator at the seventh level of the Chaos Realm. In contrast, the Blood Dragon’s Cultivation was at the Holy Ancestor Realm—a depth beyond measure. As the Lord of Ten Thousand Dragons and master of All Heavens Dragon Source, he was a supreme being destined to one day challenge the Empress and the Emperor Abyss Palace.
The revelation that the Blood Dragon served Ye Chen was incomprehensible to him.
Is it not the law of the world that the weak serve the strong?
Why would such a powerhouse bow to one so much weaker?
"Kneel. Do not force my hand."
The Blood Dragon’s gaze was filled with regal pride and absolute authority.
He knew that if he unleashed his full power, he could wipe Martial God Mountain from existence.
However, he wished to avoid unnecessary bloodshed. If Martial God Ming Gu offered a sincere apology to Ye Chen, he was willing to show leniency.
"Haha! Who do you think I am? In this entire world, no one but the Lord Empress has the right to make Martial God Ming Gu kneel!"
Martial God Ming Gu let out a cold, defiant laugh, showing no intention of surrendering.
