The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3612 - 3602: Ye Chen’s Fury! (Tenth Update)

Jin Shuhui trembled with deep agitation, her gaze fixed sharply on Zhan You, who watched her from the sky with an air of amused arrogance. Her delicate features were masked by a mixture of profound grief and boiling rage.

Such shameless, despicable conduct!

Zhan You truly held no concept of a moral bottom line.

However...

The threat from Zhan You had its intended effect.

With a trembling wrist, Jin Shuhui finally withdrew the edge of the Dragonslayer Sword from her own throat.

She was terrified.

Genuinely, deeply afraid.

While she might have found the courage to face death, abandoning her master was an impossibility she could not bear.

In that same instant, the soul lion conjured by Qiu Pi let out another roar. Intense purple Soul Fire erupted from its jaws, eventually shattering the golden light barrier as the corrosive flames took hold.

Despite her desperate struggle to maintain the defense, Lan Ying had reached her breaking point.

Witnessing this, a glimmer of manic excitement sparked in Qiu Pi’s eyes.

Success was within reach.

All that remained was to extract the Refining God Peak from its location, and this Supreme Treasure would become the sole property of Qiu Pi.

As for the disciples residing on the peak?

Better to execute them all. It would be a perfect outcome; his Calamity Soul Method required the devouring of martial artists' souls to reach the next stage of Cultivation.

Lan Ying’s complexion was deathly pale. Her body appeared rigid, shaking uncontrollably as her divine soul faltered, teetering on the edge of destruction before she slumped backward.

"Master!" Jin Shuhui cried out in alarm.

She hurried to catch Lan Ying, steadying her.

Zhan You let out a laugh, descending toward the Refining God Peak alongside Li Chang and his followers. He no longer felt any need to rush.

Suddenly, a heavy metal chain manifested in Zhan You’s hand. Li Chang and Xu Qi exchanged a look, their eyes scanning Jin Shuhui with growing, malicious playfulness.

The metal chain was, in fact, a specialized collar used to tether Outer Realm spirit dogs.

With a flick of his wrist, Zhan You moved to fasten the chain around Lan Ying’s neck.

This crossed the line for Jin Shuhui!

Zhan You had gone too far.

Launching herself forward, she unleashed a torrent of sword light, striking directly at the gap in Zhan You’s crown.

Jin Shuhui had acted in complete disregard for her own safety.

Considering her current level of Cultivation, the attack was a display of absolute, desperate precision.

But...

A look of disdain crossed Zhan You’s face. As spiritual energy rippled around his frame, he threw a casual punch. The resulting boom of fist technique shattered the sword light into nothingness.

With a single, effortless blow, the attack was nullified. The disparity in their power levels was simply too vast.

Staring icily at him, Jin Shuhui demanded, "What are you doing?"

Zhan You chuckled. "Shuhui, why be so distressed? Is this necklace I’ve chosen for your master not to your liking?"

He toyed with the chain as he spoke.

Jin Shuhui felt as though she might lose her mind.

The fury was overwhelming.

The more Jin Shuhui exhibited anger, the more Zhan You seemed to savor the spectacle.

He continued, "If you find this unsuitable for your master, I can offer you the privilege of taking her place. How does that sound?"

Jin Shuhui shuddered at the proposition.

In any normal circumstance, her pride would drive her to choose death a thousand times over rather than submit to such a humiliating dog chain. But if refusal meant her master would suffer the shame instead, she was paralyzed.

Jin Shuhui bowed her head, her hands trembling as she reached for the chain...

At that moment, Lan Ying—despite having almost no, strength left—witnessed her disciple’s intent and forced out a hoarse, desperate cry: "No... do not, stop, desist at once!"

Just as Jin Shuhui reached the metal, Zhan You suddenly recoiled.

His expression froze, turning icy as he chided, "Is this how one wears a dog collar?"

Startled, Jin Shuhui stammered, "What is your meaning?"

Zhan You laughed. "Have you ever seen a spirit dog wearing garments? Have you ever seen a spirit dog walking upright? Common beasts without clothing, moving on all fours, that is the true form of a spirit dog, is it not?"

"Impossible!!!" Jin Shuhui shrieked in hysteria. Zhan You was truly more depraved than any beast.

"Impossible?" Zhan You let out a cruel, sharp laugh.

He spoke lightly, "Tributor Li, Tributor Xu, since our Jin Immortal prizes her vanity more than her master’s life, let us simply indulge her. If she refuses to play the dog, then her master shall fill the role. That is acceptable, yes?"

Li Chang and Xu Qi roared with laughter. "Indeed, absolutely correct, Young Master. Your mercy is boundless. Offending you and merely becoming a dog? This truly is their greatest fortune!"

With that, both figures surged forward, appearing instantly at Lan Ying’s side.

Panic etched across Jin Shuhui’s features as she rushed to intercept them, but Xu Qi let out a cold grunt, unleashing the full suppressive force of the Heavenly Repairing Realm.

The moment that pressure manifest, the environment seemed to warp.

Trapped under the weight of such overwhelming might, Jin Shuhui found herself unable to move a muscle.

Tears streamed relentlessly from her eyes.

Li Chang reached out, his massive hand closing around Lan Ying’s shoulder. He lifted her, a flicker of disturbing hunger in his eyes, while his other hand moved toward her collar, intending to tear her robes away.

Xu Qi stood by with a smirk, holding the chain aloft, prepared to leash her the moment she was exposed.

Jin Shuhui squeezed her eyes shut; she knew that if she watched, her spirit would shatter completely.

But the instant Li Chang’s fingers brushed the fabric of Lan Ying’s clothes, a roar like a divine dragon pierced the heavens, causing the entire Refining God Peak, and the vast sea around it, to tremble violently.

"You filthy beast! Take your hands off her!"

Jin Shuhui snapped her eyes open, disbelief washing over her, as she saw the sky fractured by a dark, swirling tear.

From the rift, a man stepped out with an expressionless face.

Ye Chen had arrived.

Zhan You looked at Ye Chen, his eyes alight with wild, mocking glee.

He was thrilled that Ye Chen hadn't fled but had instead come to the Refining God Peak to throw his life away.

And he was mocking the sheer stupidity of the act.

With Ye Chen’s talent, what woman could he not attain in the future?

Yet, here he stood, dying for the sake of a single woman, Jin Shuhui.

Was that not the definition of a fool?

However, Zhan You’s amusement faltered as he realized Ye Chen’s level of Cultivation had surged to the fourth level of the Heavenly God Realm.

It must be remembered that Ye Chen was essentially an ant only a month ago. This rate of advancement was terrifying.

Nevertheless, such a minor increase meant nothing to a fighter of Zhan You’s caliber.

But someone else found themselves boiling with rage.

Li Chang was livid.

He was a powerhouse of the Heavenly Repairing Realm.

Within the Moon Soul Domain and the ranks of the Zhan Family, he held significant status. For a mere Heavenly God Realm youth—a piece of waste at the fourth level—to dare speak to him in such a manner?

Li Chang had always looked upon those from the Star Swirl Domain with utter contempt, viewing them as nothing more than livestock living in a backwater world. Livestock should behave with submission and fear in the presence of his status; they certainly should not bark at him, let alone call him a 'beast'.

Especially not with Zhan You and Xu Qi watching! If word of this reached the Moon Soul Domain, he would be a laughingstock.

The insult shattered Li Chang’s restraint.

He shoved Lan Ying aside, abandoning his previous intentions, and fixed his bloodshot eyes on Ye Chen. He released his full Heavenly Repairing Realm aura, causing the very earth to groan under the crushing pressure.

The torrent of power surged forward like a starving predator, rushing toward Ye Chen.

A twisted, cruel expression settled on Li Chang’s face as he spat, "A piece of waste? A pathetic ant, brave enough to speak with such arrogance? Because you defeated a few weakling thugs in the Star Swirl Domain, you think you can do as you please? Boy, it is clear you have never truly felt the weight of the Heavenly Repairing Realm. Do you have any idea what kind of existences make up the Moon Soul Domain?"

"Now, tell me—dare you call me a beast again?"
