The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3801: Not to Be Insulted! (Eighth Update)

Seeing the uproar caused by Ye Chen and the torrent of angry shouts, Yu Ziling’s delicate brows knitted together slightly, though she maintained her silence. Despite recognizing Ye Chen’s concealed depth, his audacious demand for Jun Mo’s release, disregarding the Nine Cold Sect’s authority, irked her considerably.

A subtle smirk played on Ye Chen’s lips as he turned his attention to the assembled prodigies of the Nine Cold Sect. "Since you all are so intent on escalating this matter," he declared with a light laugh, "then so be it. It perfectly suits my intentions!"

Suddenly, Ye Chen’s imposing aura erupted, surging outwards with an overwhelming majesty that instantly subdued the many gifted disciples present.

With that, Ye Chen ascended into the air, hovering steadfastly as he gazed upon the majestic peaks and deep valleys of the Nine Cold Sect. His voice boomed, "The Chief Disciple of Six Paths Sect, Ye Chen, has arrived at the Nine Cold Sect. I sincerely hope the Nine Cold Sect will grant the release of Jun Mo!"

The entirety of the Nine Cold Sect was thrown into turmoil by his declaration. The disciples surrounding Ye Chen seethed with fury. The sheer audacity of Ye Chen, proclaiming his arrival so arrogantly and openly stating his intent to abduct Jun Mo from the Nine Cold Sect, shocked them all.

This act not only demonstrated utter contempt for them but also signaled a complete disregard for the Nine Cold Sect’s standing.

"Presumptuous scoundrel! The Nine Cold Sect’s dignity cannot be trampled upon; I shall personally teach you the true meaning of regret!"

"Indeed! How dare an insignificant speck at the Heavenly God Realm flaunt his impudence within our Nine Cold Sect? Upon capturing you, we shall demand a stern explanation from the Six Paths Sect."

"Ye Chen, my advice to you is to kneel immediately and beg for forgiveness. If you incur the wrath of my Nine Cold Sect, the repercussions will be far beyond anything you can possibly endure!"

Furious shouts erupted from the disciples, their eyes blazing with murderous intent as they fixed their gaze upon Ye Chen.

Yet, Ye Chen’s expression remained remarkably composed, though a subtle glint of coldness flickered deep within his eyes. The Nine Cold Sect’s scheme to trade the Freezing Sky Ice Crystal for Jun Mo’s life struck him as exceedingly cruel.

Simultaneously, the Grand Elder of the Nine Cold Sect, Ying Xiangyun, was known for his fascination with peculiar constitutions, relentlessly pursuing anyone who caught his interest. Ye Chen harbored a suspicion that the Jun Family’s ancestor’s cultivation deviation and subsequent need for the Freezing Sky Ice Crystal might be the result of Ying Xiangyun’s machinations, all aimed at acquiring Jun Mo for his research.

Though the Nine Cold Sect was a prominent establishment within the Moon Soul Domain, they likely couldn’t engage in such dealings too openly, which might explain Ying Xiangyun’s elaborate scheme.

Naturally, this was merely Ye Chen’s speculation. Without direct interaction with the Jun Family’s ancestor or Ying Xiangyun, Ye Chen refrained from drawing any hasty conclusions.

While Ye Chen was successfully provoking the ire of the entire Nine Cold Sect, within the Ice Extreme Hall of the Nine Cold Sect, where members of the Jun Family and Jun Mo himself were present, Ye Chen’s voice also resonated.

"Who is this Ye Chen, who dares to stir up trouble within the Nine Cold Sect?"

Jun Hua’s expression shifted slightly upon hearing that someone intended to take Jun Mo away. He cast a cold glance at Jun Mo. If Ye Chen were to succeed in taking Jun Mo, it would undoubtedly enrage the Nine Cold Sect. Without the acquisition of the Freezing Sky Ice Crystal, the Jun Family’s ancestor would surely perish, a fate Jun Hua could not permit.

At this very moment, upon hearing Ye Chen’s voice, Jun Mo was initially taken aback, followed by a wave of profound emotion welling up in his eyes.

Jun Mo understood that the letter he had dispatched to Ye Chen must have brought him here with the intention of rescue. However, the Nine Cold Sect was far too formidable, and Ye Chen’s current actions were tantamount to seeking his own demise—a situation Jun Mo desperately wished to prevent for Ye Chen’s sake.

During this tense interlude, a middle-aged man within the Ice Extreme Hall regarded Jun Hua and the others, his eyes radiating a chilling aura.

"What is the meaning of this?"

This Ice Extreme Hall was the domain of the Nine Cold Sect’s Grand Elder, Ying Xiangyun. As he was currently in seclusion, his chief disciple, Wan Yan Yu, was attending to Jun Hua and the others, overseeing the negotiations for the exchange of the Freezing Sky Ice Crystal for Jun Mo.

Upon hearing Ye Chen’s voice, Wan Yan Yu’s heart immediately sank, realizing the negotiations were teetering on the brink of disaster. Agitation gripped him, as this was a task entrusted by Ying Xiangyun himself, and any mishandling would undoubtedly lead to severe repercussions.

Wan Yan Yu was all too familiar with his master’s temperament. Given Ying Xiangyun’s intense focus on Jun Mo, if Wan Yan Yu were to fail in preventing Jun Mo’s abduction, Ying Xiangyun’s fury would be unleashed, and all parties involved, including the Jun Family and Wan Yan Yu himself, would face terrifying retribution.

"Why does this Ye Chen, as the Chief Disciple of the Six Paths Sect, intend to take you away?"

Wan Yan Yu, his voice like ice and brimming with killing intent, interrogated Jun Mo, his gaze fixed on the jeopardized transaction, which ignited his animosity towards the Jun Family.

Wan Yan Yu's formidable power was evident. Witnessing his escalating fury, Jun Hua's countenance altered, and he hastily interjected, "Lord Wan, I implore you to maintain your composure. This Ye Chen has no affiliation with our Jun Family, nor do I comprehend his intentions."

Immediately, Jun Hua directed his attention to Jun Mo, continuing, "Make haste and elucidate the current situation!"

"I must impress upon you that if any disturbance arises and the ancestor fails to obtain the Freezing Sky Ice Crystal for his recovery, I cannot vouch for the safety of your parents!"

Upon absorbing this declaration, a flicker of indignation danced in Jun Mo's eyes. Still, recalling that his parents remained under the Jun Family's control, he drew a deep, steadying breath.

"Lord Wan, Ye Chen is a companion, and he likely perceived my predicament, thus manifesting a desire to escort me away."

"Oh?"

Hearing this revelation, Wan Yan Yu's eyes hardened, "And so? Do you harbor intentions of departing with him?"

"I must inform you, having previously forged a pact with the Nine Cold Sect, my master will undoubtedly be displeased should you recede from this agreement now."

Wan Yan Yu's veiled threat was starkly evident: should Jun Mo betray their arrangement, the Jun Family would face severe repercussions, potentially annihilation at the hands of the Nine Cold Sect.

"No, I shall not depart. Having committed to this endeavor, I have prepared for all eventualities and will not falter."

Jun Mo swiftly negated this notion, shaking his head, and elaborated, "It is simply that Ye Chen remains oblivious to my resolve, hence his misguided attempt to liberate me. I appeal to Lord Wan to grant me the opportunity to reason with Ye Chen, after which he will inevitably withdraw."

"Hmph, if that is your intention, then proceed."

Wan Yan Yu emitted a cold snort upon hearing this but offered no further hindrance, gesturing for Jun Mo to advance.

Wan Yan Yu permitted Jun Mo to attempt persuasion, not out of apprehension stemming from the Jun Family Grand Elder's deference to Ye Chen's status as a Chief Disciple, for the Nine Cold Sect held no fear of the current Six Paths Sect.

Wan Yan Yu's primary concern was averting Ye Chen from fomenting excessive commotion, thereby preventing complications. Should any harm befall Jun Mo, Ying Xiangyun would undoubtedly unleash her fury upon him. Consequently, he deemed it prudent to allow Ye Chen to depart unhindered.

"My gratitude, Lord Wan. I shall endeavor to persuade him to depart forthwith."

Having secured Wan Yan Yu's assent, Jun Mo felt a surge of elation, quickly rising to express his thanks before hastening away.

However, at that juncture, Wan Yan Yu's voice echoed from behind, "Yet, I caution you: should Ye Chen precipitate undue trouble, our Nine Cold Sect will not stand idly by while he acts with such impunity."
