The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3433: Difficult Circumstances (Fifth Update)
Previously on The Divine Urban Physician...
Sun Yi wrapped her arms tightly around Ye Chen, savoring the peaceful warmth of the moment.
"Ye Chen, has the apocalyptic crisis truly come to an end?"
Ye Chen rested his hand on Sun Yi’s slender, water snake-like waist and gave a slow shake of his head: "The Demon Emperor still lives, so the danger hasn't fully passed."
"Not long ago, the Sky-covering Demon Emperor informed me that the Demon Emperor has vanished without a trace. He couldn't be located even within the Heavenly Demon Land of the Outer Realm."
"A sense of impending doom keeps haunting me."
"The Demon Emperor’s most cherished child was slain in the Divine Kingdom; his fury must be beyond comprehension."
"However, I, Ye Chen, will never permit him to lay a finger on the Divine Kingdom!"
"What made you ask so suddenly?" Ye Chen asked softly.
Lifting her gaze to meet his, Sun Yi suggested: "Once this disaster is over, why don't we return to Huaxia for a visit?"
"I find myself missing the old Grand City Apartments, and so many familiar faces... Wei Ying, Zhu Ya..."
At that mention, the matter of the Huaxia Reincarnation Tablet crossed Ye Chen’s mind.
Could it be that the Eternal Sacred King’s avatar still hasn't tracked down that specific Reincarnation Tablet?
Were the remaining Reincarnation Tablets truly all this difficult to find?
While Ye Chen was lost in thought, a pair of crimson lips drew near.
His eyes widened as he realized Sun Yi was already kissing him.
More provocatively, Sun Yi’s hands were beginning to wander toward his lower body.
Being a man, Ye Chen immediately grasped Sun Yi’s desires.
He swept her up in his arms, prepared to head for the bedroom, but the surrounding void suddenly rippled!
A soft, awkward cough echoed through the air!
It was Lin Yaqin’s voice!
Sun Yi’s complexion turned a deep shade of crimson. She scrambled out of Ye Chen’s grip and retreated to the floor.
Ye Chen remained composed, turning his attention to Lin Yaqin. "Yaqin, is something the matter?"
Lin Yaqin witnessed the scene without a hint of jealousy. She was well aware that Ye Chen had met Xia Ruoxue, Sun Yi, and Ji Siqing long before her. She asked for nothing more than a small corner in his heart.
However, there was an urgent matter that required confirmation.
She looked directly at Sun Yi and questioned: "Sun Yi, do you happen to know a person named Zhu Ya?"
The mention of that name left both Sun Yi and Ye Chen completely stunned!
They had never spoken of her here, so how could Lin Yaqin, a native of the Lingwu Continent, possibly know that name?
Ye Chen stepped forward, his expression turning grave: "How do you know about Zhu Ya?"
The perceptive Lin Yaqin realized the significance immediately and produced a photograph. "Ye Chen, look at this. I thought the silhouette of the man in this picture looked a lot like you."
Ye Chen snatched the photo, his eyes locking onto the graceful girl captured in the image!
His heart raced!
It was indeed Zhu Ya!
The leader of the Zhu family from Jiangnan Province!
During his time in Jiangnan, he would have faced grave peril if not for Zhu Ya’s constant assistance.
She had always been his steadfast supporter!
She was the very girl who often appeared in Ye Chen’s dreams during his time in the Lingwu Continent!
Furthermore, the male silhouette in the photo was unmistakably his!
That very jacket still sat quietly within the Samsara Graveyard!
The most crucial detail was that this was a physical photograph!
Such things only existed in Huaxia. No matter how powerful the spells of the Divine Kingdom or Lingwu Continent were, they could not replicate the technology of Huaxia!
Ye Chen grabbed Lin Yaqin’s hand, his voice thick with excitement: "Yaqin, where did you find this?"
"Have you actually seen Zhu Ya?"
Lin Yaqin shook her head. "A young girl gave it to me. If you want the full story, you should ask her yourself. She is currently at the Demon Suppression Sub-Hall in the Lingwu Continent."
Before Lin Yaqin could even blink, Ye Chen’s form flickered and vanished from the room!
Sun Yi and Lin Yaqin exchanged a quick look before disappearing as well.
...Lingwu Continent, Demon Suppression Sub-Hall.
Zhen’er was pacing the floor anxiously!
She was terrified for Zhu Ya’s life!
She had been away for a while, and she feared Wang Jiuxu and the others might move against Sister Zhu ahead of schedule.
Those chosen for the Blood Sacrifice of the Sword Pavilion always suffered an agonizing death!
Those far more powerful than Sister Zhu had met miserable ends!
She couldn't imagine what would happen to Sister Zhu!
She couldn't wait any longer!
Finally, gathering her resolve, Zhen’er pleaded with Zining: "Sister Zi, I'm terrified for Sister Zhu. Could you lead the experts of the Demon Suppression Hall and accompany me to the Jade Sword Sect?"
"I'm begging you, Sister Zi."
In her desperation, Zhen’er dropped to her knees before Zining.
Zining looked down at the girl and quickly used her spiritual energy to lift her back up. she had grown fond of Zhen’er’s innocent and sincere nature.
The girl was clearly without guile.
However, the Demon Suppression Sub-Hall required a guardian.
With Lin Yaqin gone, if Zining left as well, the hall would be vulnerable to attack.
But Zining was soft-hearted.
Unable to witness Zhen’er’s tears any longer, she relented. "Very well, I will go with you to the Jade Sword Sect!"
Zhen’er was filled with joy, but just as they prepared to depart—
The entire hall began to tremble violently!
The space around them started to show faint signs of fracturing.
It was a terrifying display of power!
Zhen’er’s face paled!
Suddenly, a massive spatial rift tore open right in front of her!
A young man stepped out from the void!
He was wreathed in a domineering aura, with sharp, sword-like brows and piercing dark eyes. His features were perfectly defined, and his very presence seemed to exert a pressure that could suppress the heavens!
Zhen’er recognized this figure instantly!
She spoke to his statue at the Jade Sword Sect every day, and she had even spent many nights carving his likeness into the walls of her room.
This was the man she had focused on for countless hours—Hall Master Ye.
Seeing him in the flesh made her feel as though she couldn't breathe!
"Junior brother, what brings you here?" Zining cried out in astonishment.
She had been told Ye Chen was in Boundary City; she never expected him to suddenly manifest in the Lingwu Continent.
Ye Chen gave Zining a brief nod before turning his intense gaze toward Zhen’er. "You must be Zhen’er."
"Tell me, what has happened to Zhu Ya?"
"Where is she located?"
Though flustered, Zhen’er managed to compose herself quickly and explained how Zhu Ya was being held as a Blood Sacrifice at the Jade Sword Sect!
Before she could even finish her sentence, Ye Chen’s blood essence erupted, releasing a tidal wave of murderous intent!
Dark, heavy clouds instantly swirled over the Demon Suppression Hall!
It looked as if the end of the world was descending upon the Lingwu Continent!
"Jade Sword Sect! How bold!" Ye Chen roared. "If even a single hair on Zhu Ya’s head is harmed, I will show them the true meaning of Burning Heaven’s wrath! Let’s move!"
In the blink of an eye, Ye Chen and Zhen’er vanished from the Demon Suppression Sub-Hall.
...Meanwhile, at the Jade Sword Sect.
Zhu Ya’s heart was heavy as she stared at the array of swords surrounding her, each vibrating with a suffocating spiritual pressure.
The energy felt as if it were ready to consume her whole.
Every second felt like an eternity in this place!
Zhen’er had been gone for some time, and Zhu Ya wondered if she had successfully reached Sun Yi or Ye Lingtian.
Even if she failed to find them, Zhu Ya only hoped that Zhen’er remained safe.
She had no desire to see anyone else suffer on her account.
