The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3654 - 3644: Everything Frozen! (Seventh Update)
Previously on The Divine Urban Physician...
Within the Moon God Secret Realm, she typically manages to convince anyone she meets to offer aid, even women!
Yet she crossed paths with Ye Chen of all people!
Li Qingyu's misfortune couldn't be more profound...
Thanks to his Mental Demon Body, Reincarnation Bloodline, and a Dao heart of unbreakable fortitude, Ye Chen boasts tremendous immunity to Charming Power. This holds especially true now, with his divine soul freshly refined to flawless purity and Divine Peak safeguarding his consciousness—even the legendary Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox, famed for its seductive prowess, couldn't rattle his mind at this cultivation level.
How could Li Qingyu possibly succeed?
True panic seized Li Qingyu as she bit her lips, utterly lost on what to do next. Watching Ye Chen start to depart filled her with an inexplicable sense of injustice. In the Yin Yang Spirit Dao Sect, she remained ever distant, rarely seeking assistance and scarcely exchanging words with men from childhood onward. But this, her very first request for help, had been flatly denied!
Should Ye Chen truly abandon her, death might claim her right here! The effects of the Snow Moon Divine Flower were waning fast, leaving her unable to flee even if she tried...
A surge of despair washed over Li Qingyu—was her path in the martial world truly ending in this place?
Ye Chen eyed the Ice Jade Flood Dragon charging at Li Qingyu, his spiritual energy swirling as he prepared his movement art to depart. Yet just then, a gentle voice rang out suddenly in his mind.
Xuan Han Yu abruptly declared, "Hold on a second, kid!"
Ye Chen halted at the words, inquiring, "What's wrong, Fairy Xuan?"
At the same time, Li Qingyu's lovely eyes lit up with a spark of hope as she saw him pause.
Ye Chen represented her sole lifeline now!
Xuan Han Yu chuckled, "Your fortune is truly impressive. Refining that Moon Liquid Spirit Marrow would have been risky on your own, but fate delivered this untouched maiden with a Primordial Yin Body right to you. Her assistance will make absorbing the Moon Liquid Spirit Marrow far less perilous!"
Ye Chen stayed quiet briefly before his form blurred into motion, yanking Li Qingyu out of harm's way in a flash!
Li Qingyu froze for a split second, then her face drained of color upon spotting a claw gleam ripping through the spot where she'd stood moments ago, shredding the void apart!
Her fixation on Ye Chen had blinded her to the Ice Jade Flood Dragon closing into striking distance!
Without Ye Chen's timely save, that claw might not kill her outright, but grave injury was inevitable!
The Flood Dragon bellowed in rage at the sight, its draconic gaze locking onto Ye Chen with seething malice!
Yet another meddlesome insect!
Without this intruding nuisance, vengeance would already be its!
Ice Cold Spiritual Energy erupted from the Flood Dragon as it pursued Ye Chen with blistering velocity!
As he withdrew while carrying Li Qingyu, Ye Chen stated, "I will rescue you, however..."
Li Qingyu exclaimed in delight, "Great, let's strike together then!"
She struggled to break free from Ye Chen's grasp to confront the Ice Jade Flood Dragon.
Yet Ye Chen held firm.
Li Qingyu gazed at him in frantic worry—what on earth was he planning?
Couldn't he see the Flood Dragon nearly upon them?
Delaying action any longer spelled doom!
Ye Chen spoke leisurely, "You must first seal this spirit contract."
With those words, a glowing light manifested before them, forming an extraordinarily potent spirit contract!
This contract hailed from Lishan Fairy herself, binding even peak Heavenly Repair Realm experts with unyielding force!
Ye Chen's demeanor drove Li Qingyu to the brink of fury!
Was now the moment for haggling?
Even uniting their full strength, overcoming this Flood Dragon seemed improbable, didn't it?
Against a foe of such might, any distraction equated to suicide!
Yet Ye Chen demanded a spirit contract at this critical juncture?
Wasn't he toying with their very lives!
Li Qingyu cried out in urgency, "You! Bargaining right now? The Ice Jade Flood Dragon is right on us!"
Ye Chen maintained his composure, grinning as he replied, "In that case, Miss Li should hurry and sign this spirit contract."
Li Qingyu found herself at a loss for words—this man was utterly overbearing!
Ye Chen eyed the swiftly nearing Ice Jade Flood Dragon, drawling, "Miss Li, hesitate much longer and I'm afraid opportunity will slip away entirely."
At his words, Li Qingyu's delicate features turned ashen. She hastily scanned the spirit contract's terms, her face twisting in shock as she burst out, "What! You demand total obedience to you throughout the Moon God Secret Realm without question! How... how could that possibly work!"
Ye Chen responded coolly, "Miss Li, the contract clearly guarantees no threat to your life. Naturally, if you refuse, I can depart immediately."
Li Qingyu's stunning eyes brimmed with profound resentment toward Ye Chen. As the Yin Yang Spirit Dao Sect's premier genius, even the sect master doted on her endlessly with warm smiles—never had she endured such treatment!
For the first time ever, a man was cornering her like this, leaving no escape!
At the same moment, a flush crept across Li Qingyu's breathtaking visage—obedience without harm to life?
This...
It almost implied Ye Chen intended to...
Suddenly, chaos reigned in Li Qingyu's heart. She had shunned the Energy Absorption Technique, both for its damage to one's martial foundation and her own principled disdain for such arts!
Yet to live on, must she forsake her lifelong convictions?
Li Qingyu recoiled from the idea, but neither did she crave a gruesome end in the Flood Dragon's jaws!
Right then, Ye Chen smirked playfully and remarked, "Miss Li, quit imagining things—you've run out of time."
Li Qingyu jolted back to reality, beholding the Flood Dragon upon them!
Gazing into the gore-stained dragon jaws and murderous eyes, her thoughts blanked out instantly!
Death's terror engulfed her soul; Li Qingyu shrieked and, with no choice left, imprinted her Divine Soul Seal upon the spirit contract. In that instant, an intangible fetter formed around her divine soul!
But by now, the Ice Jade Flood Dragon's maw gaped wide, unleashing a bone-chilling Dragon Breath—long nurtured, it flash-froze the surrounding expanse upon release!
At this sight, utter hopelessness gleamed in Li Qingyu's eyes—it's finished, all is lost!
Signing the contract had taken too long; escape was now impossible!
She and Ye Chen faced certain doom here!
