The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3473: Identity!

"But not long back, Jin Shuhui, likely triggered by some kind of shock, started popping up often in numerous secret realms throughout the Star Swirl Domain, wildly boosting her power, and inevitably grabbed attention from everyone once more!"

A wry smile crossed Ye Chen's face as he absorbed these words. Regarding the recent trigger that had shaken Jin Shuhui...

It probably stemmed straight from him. Given Jin Shuhui's fierce pride, how could she resist the urge to chase after him and push herself relentlessly?

No matter how faint the odds seemed, Jin Shuhui would spare no effort to narrow the vast distance separating her from Ye Chen.

Gu Han went on, "And merely half a month past, whether it counts as her fortune or misfortune, Jin Shuhui managed to seize a strand of Heavenly Spirit Energy inside a Heavenly Spirit Secret Realm!"

Ye Chen's brows knitted together as he questioned, "Heavenly Spirit Secret Realm? Heavenly Spirit Energy? What's that about?"

Surprise flickered across Gu Han's features. He hadn't anticipated that Ye Chen would be unaware of the Heavenly Spirit Secret Realm or Heavenly Spirit Energy?

Still, he brushed it off and clarified, "The Heavenly Spirit Secret Realm ranks among the elite secret realms in the Star Swirl Domain. Legends describe Heavenly Spirits as beings akin to soul spirits yet vastly more powerful! Even across the Outer Realm and Upper Realm, sightings of Heavenly Spirits have faded into ancient history.

This Heavenly Spirit Secret Realm is rumored to be the final resting place of a Heavenly Spirit.

Once every century, the Heavenly Spirit Secret Realm unlocks, allowing entry to those who hold Jade Soul Stones.

Inside lie countless rare resources and artifacts, but the crown jewel remains the Heavenly Spirit Energy! That Heavenly Spirit Energy stands as one of the rare elements capable of fortifying the Martial Arts Foundation for warriors at the Heavenly God Realm, Holy Ancestor Realm, and even the Heavenly Repairing Realm!"

"What?" Ye Chen's shock hit him like a thunderbolt at these revelations!

An item that could bolster a warrior's Martial Arts Foundation?

Without doubt, it qualified as a Supreme Treasure!

Yet moments later, Ye Chen's forehead creased as he probed, "Where does the Refining God Peak stand in terms of power?"

A treasure of this caliber, far beyond the grasp of the Star Swirl Domain alone, could easily lure powerhouses from distant lands, making it impossible for lesser factions to hold onto!

Thus, claiming this Heavenly Spirit Energy might spell more trouble than boon for Jin Shuhui!

Gu Han responded, "The Refining God Peak holds solid strength within the Star Swirl Domain, yet safeguarding this Heavenly Spirit Energy proves beyond their reach!"

Ye Chen's gaze sharpened with chill upon hearing this, and he let out a mocking snort, "So, the Refining God Peak plans to wed Jin Shuhui away?"

Gu Han affirmed with a nod, adding, "Precisely, the Refining God Peak realizes they can't secure Jin Shuhui's Heavenly Spirit Energy, so they've seized this chance to arrange her marriage!

The Heavenly Spirit Energy will form part of Jin Shuhui's dowry! After all, its unique nature means that unless fully absorbed, it can still be extracted via the Dual Cultivation Method once drawn into the body.

That's why they've set up this marriage convention, summoning renowned and elite prodigies from across the entire Star Swirl Domain! Haha, the Refining God Peak plays this smart. Through this, they not only forge ties with a rising star from a mighty faction but also reap handsome betrothal gifts!

Especially since they're dangling the Heavenly Spirit Energy as the dowry, right?"

As he talked, a wry grin twisted Gu Han's expression. In truth, despite his invitation, he harbored little illusion of catching the Refining God Peak's favor.

Sure, he stood on the cusp of joining the Cold Flame Sect, a status of some prestige, but he paled against the true freakish geniuses hailing from colossal powers.

His main reason for showing up at this Refining God Peak marriage convention was to mingle, enjoy the spectacle, and connect with key players.

Ye Chen's face hardened further, struck by how the Refining God Peak truly operated like a merchant house, didn't it?

They bartered their own disciples like mere goods!

Ye Chen loathed such scheming sects above all.

He inquired indirectly, "Jin Shuhui didn't resist this at all?"

"Resist?" Gu Han gave a helpless chuckle and shook his head, replying, "Even if she desired to fight back, she lacks the means. Jin Shuhui suffered grave wounds escaping the Heavenly Spirit Secret Realm and limped back to the Refining God Peak. She could still be unconscious at this moment, and every Xuan Nu of the Refining God Peak bears implanted seals."

A trace of sarcasm crept into Gu Han's tone as he continued, "In a twist of irony, those seals were originally designed to stop Xuan Nu from violating codes by getting too close to men. Yet now, the Refining God Peak seems poised to wield them in forcing Jin Shuhui into marriage!

The Refining God Peak has blatantly tossed aside their heritage and honor for greed!"

At these words, a spark of killing intent gleamed in Ye Chen's eyes!

With Jin Shuhui so badly hurt, her own sect, the Refining God Peak, plotted to pawn her off in this state?

Hah, they probably figured they could dodge the duty of mending her wounds too, huh?

Well played by the Refining God Peak!

Their shamelessness knew no bounds!

Gu Han caught the shift in Ye Chen's demeanor and offered, "Young Master Ye, should you wish to join this marriage convention, I can escort you there."

Invitees had the leeway to bring along one or two companions.

Ye Chen responded with a icy laugh, "I have to attend. If the Refining God Peak enjoys wheeling and dealing, how could I skip aiding their ventures? When does the convention kick off?"

Gu Han answered, "In three days, though the journey from Black Gold City to the Refining God Peak takes roughly two days."

Ye Chen gave a nod and stated, "Fine, we'll depart tomorrow. You head off to recover for now."

With that, Ye Chen flicked his wrist, dropping a crimson pill into Gu Han's palm.

"Swallow this pill, and it'll mend your wounds."

Gu Han gaped in awe at the pill in his grasp, which pulsed with an immense aura of vitality!

Joy surged through him instantly, and he bowed in gratitude to Ye Chen, exclaiming, "Many thanks, Young Master!"

Once Gu Han departed, Ye Chen faced Chen Yang and requested, "City Lord Chen, could you arrange a false identity for me in Black Gold City?"

Chen Yang blinked in surprise at the ask. A cover identity in Black Gold City?

Was Ye Chen aiming to mask his true self?

Abruptly, realization dawned on Chen Yang's face. Perhaps Ye Chen was a scion of some elite clan venturing incognito, anxious about his kin uncovering his whereabouts, hence the need for disguise?

It made perfect sense.

With that in mind, Chen Yang grinned and assured, "No worries, Young Master Ye, I'll handle it personally. Hehe, you can count on me—even the premier factions in the Star Swirl Domain won't easily pierce the veil I create. Just give me a day, and it'll be ready!"

Ye Chen inclined his head. He sensed Chen Yang was misreading the situation, but that suited him fine.

Venturing to the Refining God Peak's marriage convention meant brushing shoulders with envoys from Outer Realm powers. Given their cunning ways, unmasking his role as the Samsara Master and ties to the Divine Kingdom loomed as a real risk, so Ye Chen prepared accordingly.

Having settled matters, Ye Chen retreated to the guest quarters Chen Yang had set aside for him. Skipping cultivation, he simply collapsed into bed for rest. Though unscathed by Elder Yong's formation pattern space storm, the ordeal had drained his reserves heavily. For the upcoming marriage convention, he'd clash with the top prodigies dominating this slice of the Outer Realm. True, he might dodge the Leng family, Emperor Abyss Palace, or even the Upper Realm's Empress.

Still, he required peak readiness!

As slumber claimed him, seven silhouettes materialized beside Ye Chen.

They were none other than the Heavenly Dao Seven Saints!

Gazing upon Ye Chen, they offered subtle nods before intoning together, "The Samsara Master of this era, despite lagging far behind the pinnacle in cultivation level, possesses a foundation of unshakeable depth and could readily shatter that threshold!"
