The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3471: The Answer I Want! (Eighth Update)
Previously on The Divine Urban Physician...
A smug look spread across Gu Han's face; surely, this brat couldn't maintain his facade any longer, could he?
Unexpectedly, the very next instant brought Ye Chen's words: "What business is it of yours? Who exactly do you believe yourself to be? Must I explain to you how Jin Shuhui and I became friends?"
Of course, he had no intention of disclosing his origins from the Divine Kingdom, since his present strength made confronting the Leng family, the Upper Realm Empress, and the Emperor Abyss Palace far too soon, and with just fifteen days in this place, Ye Chen preferred to keep his true self hidden!
Regarding his name, across the vast Outer Realm and Upper Realm, countless individuals shared it, so probing that detail proved pointless!
The folks inside Jinxiao Pavilion stood utterly stunned!
All of them stared at Ye Chen with utter astonishment...
This young man, what's happening with him, flipping his demeanor so abruptly?
Gu Han, on the other hand, let out a chilling, icy chuckle!
Ye Chen, dismissing him as irrelevant?
Born into the Yuan Shan Gu Family, not only throughout the whole Yuan Mountain Range but even in nearby cities, nobody ever addressed him with such disrespect!
Hadn't they noticed how the haughty Chen Yang treated him with deep respect?
Yet now, some pathetic Heavenly God Realm cultivator not only dared to eye the woman he'd claimed but also insulted him outright?
Excellent, outstanding!
From Gu Han's form surged bursts of frosty white mist, reshaping him into what seemed like a deity of endless winter, as he bellowed at Ye Chen: "Brat, letting anger cloud your words now? You've crossed the wrong person, so prepare to perish!"
The instant after, a savage burst of murderous intent flashed in Gu Han's gaze, while a blade apparently carved from ancient Mystic Ice materialized in his grasp!
Gripping the lengthy blade, Gu Han unleashed his complete Holy Ancestor Realm presence!
All inhabitants of Black Gold City sensed themselves plunged into a torrent of ceaseless snowfall, their very spirits on the verge of solidification!
The terror Gu Han instilled in them surpassed even that from Chen Yang!
Chen Yang offered a sinister smile; this fellow called Ye Chen, now in Gu Han's sights, faced far worse than if it were just him!
Gu Han served as not merely a direct heir of the Yuan Shan Gu Family but a celebrated prodigy within it!
Across the entire Yuan Shan Gu Family, solely the patriarch and select elders outmatched Gu Han's might.
Moreover, Gu Han hadn't even reached fifteen hundred years of age!
Reaching such heights at that youth, he ranked as a freakish talent even in the broader Star Swirl Domain, yet Gu Han boasted not just superior combat gifts but the Mystic Cold Bloodline too!
The Mystic Cold Bloodline came with innate, overwhelming frosty essence and offered boundless benefits for practicing frost-related skills and combat forms!
In the whole Star Swirl Domain, this lineage counted as elite-tier!
Thus, despite the Gu Family's moderate strength, Gu Han earned an invitation from the Refining God Peak!
Right then, Gu Han growled softly: "Ice Cloud Divine Sword!"
With the blade's swing, the Mystic Ice Longsword blazed with dazzling icy radiance, wrapping boundless freezing energy, resembling a vast canopy of frost, hurtling at Ye Chen!
The blade's glow lingered in the sky, poised to encase the whole Jinxiao Pavilion in ice!
This went beyond merely icing Jinxiao Pavilion; it chilled the very fabric of space!
No one could fathom the sheer force or the bone-piercing cold of Gu Han's strike!
Warriors across Black Gold City lost their minds!
Overwhelmed by fear of the Ice Cloud Divine Sword, they descended into frenzy!
They realized that should Gu Han's blade target them, they'd freeze solid in a heartbeat and shatter like glass!
This very moment marked the height of summer, yet Black Gold City's heat plunged wildly to scores of degrees below freezing!
As though ushering in a merciless winter that could seal all life in frost!
Even Chen Yang nearby twitched his eyelids more fiercely, his gaze wavering, unsure if he could endure Gu Han's assault without harm!
At the same time, delight intensified on Chen Yang's features!
The greater Gu Han's prowess, the more devastating Ye Chen's demise would prove!
Gazing upon Ye Chen now, he remained rooted in spot, as if genuinely iced over!
Gu Han sneered with frost, his eyes brimming with scorn that nearly took form!
Precisely when the Ice Cloud Divine Sword neared to cleave Ye Chen, a dark longsword emerged in his hold!
Gu Han scoffed in mockery; resisting at this juncture?
Still, inexplicably, Ye Chen's composed bearing struck Gu Han as sharply unsettling!
Gu Han's stare grew shadowed, a surge of ultimate frost from his lineage burst out, forming a swirling vortex of ice crystals around the Mystic Ice Longsword, amplifying the Ice Cloud Divine Sword's might even more!
"Perish!" Gu Han roared savagely, aiming the blade straight at Ye Chen's forehead, the icy blast horrifying, the edge flashing like thunder!
In that instant, Ye Chen at last stirred!
Eight Trigrams Sky Pill Technique and Heavenly Dragon Eight Divine Sounds surged instantly, unleashing two primeval Hongmeng Ancient Techniques.
A presence of apocalyptic might exploded outward!
Concurrently, eerie azure flames ignited across Ye Chen's frame, intertwined with rippling crimson glows!
In a blink, a fearsome force thundered from Ye Chen's being!
Chen Yang and Gu Han's eyes shrank sharply at the sight!
Terror!
Terror piercing the spirit!
The second Ye Chen grew earnest, an undeniable wave of soul-deep fear radiated from him instinctively!
How was this possible?
Utter disbelief filled their gazes, minds whirling frantically...
Yet regardless of their pondering, they failed to grasp why Ye Chen's presence had turned so alarmingly potent!
However!
This marked merely the beginning!
The obsidian longsword Ye Chen wielded pulsed with an elusive, primordial, enigmatic energy!
The instant those in Jinxiao Pavilion sensed this energy, their visions blurred!
The following heartbeat drained all color from their faces!
Why so?
For within that energy lurked annihilation and demise!
This included Chen Yang and Gu Han among them!
Gu Han's expression twisted grimly as he locked eyes on Ye Chen's longsword, recognizing its emanation of pure Destruction Divine Dao essence!
The Destruction Divine Dao, among the Primitive Three Daos, represented a pursuit craved by myriad titans in the Outer Realm!
Beyond the Star Swirl Domain, even powers in the Heavenly Human Domain hungered for those who grasped the Destruction Divine Dao!
Before, Gu Han had viewed himself above others, selected by the Cold Flame Sect, and even looked down on Chen Yang, the Black Gold City Lord—an elder whose strength matched his own!
Hence, Ye Chen's affront had nearly driven him to madness!
But at present, Gu Han reclaimed his composure...
Why the shift?
Ye Chen commanded the Destruction Divine Dao!
Against Ye Chen, Gu Han paled into insignificance!
In truth, Gu Han now harbored deep regret, yearning to pull back and sheathe his blade!
Yet, did such a chance exist for him?
Would Ye Chen grant him that mercy?
