The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3729 - 3719: Do You Know Who I Am? (Third Update)

A cold smile touched the young woman's lips as she turned to face Han Wenxin’s call.

"Han Wenxin."

With skin whiter than snow and unparalleled, dazzling beauty, she was a talent of a kind. She was adorned in a light green gown, enveloped in an aura of mystery and coldness.

Ye Chen was taken aback by her appearance; it was indeed rare to witness such a young powerhouse. She appeared no older than twenty years, yet an unsettling, chilling aura emanated from her.

Despite her extraordinary looks, Han Wenxin's expression shifted to one of extreme alarm. This piqued Ye Chen's curiosity, given Han Wenxin's specialty in protection, his immunity to Karma, and his usual composure. What could possibly frighten such a seasoned individual upon seeing this young powerhouse?

"Senior Han, who is this young woman?" Ye Chen inquired.

"The consequences of encountering her and remaining silent are endless Karma. I advise you to stay far away," Han Wenxin warned, his gaze fixed on the young woman. Terrified, he offered Ye Chen no further explanation of her identity, only this urgent advice, before vanishing instantly.

"This..." Ye Chen watched Han Wenxin depart, feeling a mix of helplessness and wariness towards the young woman. Could she be the forbidden existence Senior Ren had alluded to? Yet, her power felt distinctly different.

Suddenly, Han Wenxin's voice echoed in Ye Chen's mind, revealing the young powerhouse's history. This formidable young woman was not the forbidden figure Ye Chen suspected, but rather, she possessed a notorious past.

Centuries ago, a mysterious young woman emerged from the Moon Soul Domain – the very same powerhouse standing before him. Known then as a youth riding a Moon Deer, she brutally carved a path from the southernmost reaches of the Moon Soul Domain to its northernmost boundary.

In a span of just three months, over sixty thousand lives were extinguished across the Moon Soul Domain. All victims were individuals of immense standing: sect leaders, grand elders, or brilliant genius disciples. These lives were all taken by the young powerhouse, plunging the Moon Soul Domain into widespread panic and fear for hundreds of years. Everyone with a notable reputation lived in terror of being brutally slain by the 'Yue Hun Witch'.

Because of the Yue Hun Witch, even incredibly talented individuals went into hiding, afraid to show themselves publicly, constantly anxious and worried. This earned the young powerhouse the infamous title of Yue Hun Witch.

Some rumors claimed the Yue Hun Witch practiced demonic techniques, reveling in the act of killing.

Others maintained she was not inherently evil, asserting her actions actually benefited the populace by eliminating threats.

While these viewpoints had their adherents, a significant number believed in yet another narrative.

They theorized that the Yue Hun Witch was enacting vengeance, that those she slaughtered were her sworn enemies. This, they believed, motivated her relentless journey from the south to the north, eradicating all opposition.

A century later, the Yue Hun Witch disappeared without a trace, her ultimate fate remaining a mystery. Gradually, the Moon Soul Domain recovered, allowing talented cultivators to emerge from seclusion and gain recognition once more.

As Han Wenxin's account faded from his mind, Ye Chen glanced at the Yue Hun Witch. A shiver ran down his spine despite her beauty. Who could have imagined that such an apparently harmless woman was responsible for the deaths of over sixty thousand people? It was a truly terrifying accomplishment.

At that moment, the Yue Hun Witch turned her gaze to Ye Chen and spoke gently, "Do you know who I am?"

Jolted from his thoughts, Ye Chen responded with a cautious nod. "Ye Chen greets Senior Yue Hun."

It remained uncertain whether giving the Sacred Origin Heart to the Yue Hun Witch would lead to the resurrection of her Moon Deer, the discovery of her true body, or her eventual freedom. Ye Chen was unwilling to gamble on the outcome.

"Senior Yue Hun, the Sacred Origin Heart holds immense significance for me. I must beg your forgiveness for my refusal to hand it over."

After a prolonged period of deliberation, Ye Chen ultimately conveyed these words to the Yue Hun Witch with a shake of his head.

"If I do not lend my aid, who else can assist you in fusing the Sacred Origin Heart? Would you simply let it go to waste?"

The Yue Hun Witch, clearly displeased by Ye Chen's rejection, spoke with agitation.

"Senior, I assure you, I will find a way to fuse the Sacred Origin Heart. I also promise to help in locating your departed Moon Deer."

"You?" the Yue Hun Witch inquired with a chilling scoff, her dismissive tone evident. "I certainly am not counting on you!"

With her pronouncement made, the Yue Hun Witch's form dissipated, signifying her return to the stone tablet.

Witnessing the Yue Hun Witch's departure, Ye Chen could only shake his head in helplessness. The Sacred Origin Heart was far too critical. As Han Wenxin had previously recounted the Yue Hun Witch's history, there was no certainty regarding her actions once freed, nor if she would honor any agreement. This individual was undeniably perilous, making caution the wisest course.

At present, the opportunity to fuse the Sacred Origin Heart was non-existent. Ye Chen dismissed the thought from his mind, his attention then drawn to the stone door, where a protruding black ink stone was observed on its surface.

Ye Chen advanced, applying firm pressure to the black ink stone and embedding it within the wall. This action caused the stone door to slowly creak open.

Through the opening, Ye Chen perceived Wu Duan Cang standing outside, peering in with evident curiosity. He let out a chuckle and shook his head.

"Ye Chen, within the altar..." Wu Duan Cang cautiously began to speak.
