The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3705 - 3695: Farewell, Jun Mo (Fourth Update)

Elder Changfa could only stand by and watch as Huang Haoran shamefully crawled beneath Ye Chen’s legs, his jaw clenched in fury.

The moment Huang Haoran passed under Ye Chen, his vision suddenly became clear again. He glared at Ye Chen, his eyes burning with intense hatred.

"What did you do to me!"

A wave of murderous intent erupted from Huang Haoran, making him wish he could tear Ye Chen limb from limb! He felt as though his very soul was being suppressed by some unseen force.

Could it be that this Ye Chen is actually a soul cultivator?

Facing Huang Haoran's potent killing intent and roaring rage, Ye Chen remained composed. "Is fulfilling a bet something I did to you, or was it of your own volition?"

"Nonsense! How could I willingly crawl under a loser like you..."

As Huang Haoran uttered these words, he sensed multiple menacing auras directed at him. His body stiffened involuntarily. Noticing the unchanged expressions of Elder Hei Zhi, Elder Changfa, and many of his fellow disciples, a cold sweat broke out on his back.

It was then that Huang Haoran realized, in his blind fury, he had nearly brought disaster upon Zhenyuan Palace.

"Oh? How could you possibly do that?"

Ye Chen looked at Huang Haoran with a touch of amusement, his eyes filled with undisguised disdain.

Upon seeing this, Huang Haoran was enraged and suddenly launched an attack. "Scoundrel, I will kill you!"

"Do you dare!"

Witnessing this unfolding scene, the complexions of the two Elders Gao Lin changed drastically. Ye Chen's cultivation was only at the Heavenly God Realm, whereas Huang Haoran was a genius of Zhenyuan Palace at the third-level Heavenly Repairing Realm, possessing extraordinary combat prowess. Ye Chen was clearly in mortal danger.

At this precise moment, Elder Lin swung a green bamboo staff, forcefully repelling the two Elders Hei Zhi who were about to charge forward.

In the following instant, as the two Elders Gao Lin made their move towards Southern Saint City, an overwhelming pressure suddenly descended. It was so intense that it nearly forced them to their knees, making it evident they could not possibly reach Ye Chen in time to offer assistance.

A flicker of terror crossed the eyes of the two Elders Gao Lin as they felt the immense pressure, as if the very heavens were about to crush them. Their hearts trembled profoundly.

Previously, Ye Chen had walked through the gates of Southern Saint City with an indifferent expression, leading them to suspect a malfunction in the array formation. However, the pressure now emanating from the formation proved its terrifying might, demonstrating beyond doubt that there was no issue with it whatsoever.

Consequently, the two Elders Gao Lin became convinced that Ye Chen must wield an extraordinary magic treasure. They believed this artifact allowed him to effortlessly pass through the Southern Saint City gates without any resistance, and its power was responsible for forcing Huang Haoran to crawl beneath his legs.

What the two Elders Gao Lin failed to grasp was that the formation was perfectly fine, and Ye Chen possessed no such magic treasure.

As for compelling Huang Haoran to crawl, that was solely the result of Ye Chen's formidable divine soul power, which made influencing Huang Haoran incredibly simple.

This was, of course, also greatly aided by Huang Haoran's supreme arrogance. Being within Southern Saint City, he had never anticipated Ye Chen would dare to act against him, leaving him completely unprepared and thus falling prey to the ruse.

With the two Elders Gao Lin held back by the formidable pressure from the Southern Saint City gates, Huang Haoran had already unleashed a ferocious assault upon Ye Chen.

Huang Haoran brandished an Azure Dragon Sword, which now emanated an endless, chilling radiance as it sliced directly towards Ye Chen's head.

"Hmph, is this how the disciples of Zhenyuan Palace conduct themselves?"

Seeing this, Ye Chen let out a derisive laugh. His Slaughter Sword suddenly materialized, and the Destruction Divine Dao erupted with power!

"Boom!"

A violent torrent of destructive energy, seemingly determined to obliterate everything, surged outward. The moment the Slaughter Sword collided with the Azure Dragon Sword, a terrifying shockwave radiated outwards.

Simultaneously, the Azure Dragon Sword emitted a sharp 'crack' before shattering into pieces. Ye Chen's Slaughter Sword, however, continued its unstoppable trajectory, piercing directly towards Huang Haoran's throat!

"You insolent fool, how dare you harm someone from Zhenyuan Palace!"

Witnessing this, all the Zhenyuan Palace disciples erupted in fury and immediately moved to attack Ye Chen.

At that instant, a figure bathed in crimson light abruptly appeared. Intercepting seven to eight individuals, this new combatant launched a fierce offensive, successfully blocking all the attacking Zhenyuan Palace disciples.

"You..."

As the Zhenyuan Palace disciples were held at bay, Ye Chen's Slaughter Sword halted mere inches from Huang Haoran's throat. Huang Haoran could feel the bone-chilling aura of the Slaughter Sword, a cold that seemed to freeze all existence. His pupils constricted, and cold sweat poured down his entire body.

The shattering of the Azure Dragon Sword sent a wave of terrifying murderous intent and doom through Huang Haoran, as if an inescapable hell had descended, plunging him into the abyss of fear. As Ye Chen thrust the Slaughter Sword forward, Huang Haoran felt the certainty of death closing in, almostiling himself in terror. Yet, to his surprise, Ye Chen halted the blade's deadly descent.

With a slight smirk playing on his lips, Ye Chen turned the edge of his sword and delivered a sharp slap across Huang Haoran's face. Frozen by fear, Huang Haoran was powerless to defend himself and was swiftly struck down by Ye Chen.

"A trash like you isn't worth soiling my sword," Ye Chen declared icily, his gaze fixed on Huang Haoran.

Huang Haoran's heart burned with hatred, but he dared not utter a word. The recent brush with death still clung to him, filling him with a profound dread of Ye Chen. He was utterly terrified!

This turn of events left Elders Gao Lin, Elder Hei Zhi, and the disciples of Zhenyuan Palace utterly stunned, their expressions darkening significantly.

Ye Chen, however, appeared completely unfazed. His attention shifted instead to those who had intervened to shield him from the Zhenyuan Palace disciples.

Upon spotting the leader among them, a figure cloaked in a sanguine luminescence, Ye Chen's expression shifted subtly.

"Jun Mo?"

Ye Chen's eyes met the man's. The individual enveloped in blood light was indeed Jun Mo, whom he had parted ways with not long ago when Jun Mo embarked on a journey to Dragon Valley with the Sky-covering Demon Emperor in search of the Blood Red Tree.

Now, observing Jun Mo radiating with blood light and sensing his breakthrough to the Heavenly Repairing Realm, even reaching the second level, Ye Chen's face lit up with genuine joy.

"Did you find the Blood Red Tree?"

"Yes," Jun Mo replied, his excitement mirroring Ye Chen's. He couldn't help but smile and nod. The individuals who had aided Ye Chen earlier now regarded him with curious, questioning glances.

"Damn you, insolent fool! How dare you cause a disturbance in my Zhenyuan Palace? I will utterly destroy you!"

As Ye Chen and Jun Mo were engrossed in their reunion, Elder Hei Zhi erupted in fury, lunging toward Ye Chen.

"Master Elder!"

At that critical moment, Jun Mo stepped forward, positioning himself between Ye Chen and Elder Hei Zhi. He revealed a profound black token clutched in his hand.

"Ye Chen is my friend. I implore this Elder not to act rashly," Jun Mo announced in a clear voice, presenting a blood-red token. His eyes, fixed on Elder Hei Zhi, flashed with a cold, unfriendly glare.

Elder Hei Zhi's countenance changed drastically upon seeing the deep black token in Jun Mo's grasp. "You are the sage-like old man's..."

He stopped himself, realizing he should not complete the sentence. The token belonged to Zhenyuan Palace's revered sage-like old man, a figure of immense authority whom Elder Hei Zhi could not afford to offend. He promptly fell silent, his gaze upon Jun Mo now filled with grim apprehension.
