The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3813: Reunion with Wei Ying (Part 2)

"Hm? What do you mean, where are Jun Hua and the others? Why have only the two of you returned!"

The sage-like old man's expression shifted instantly. Jun Mo and Ye Chen had reappeared, but Jun Hua and the rest were nowhere to be seen, an ominous sign.

"Them?" Jun Mo scoffed coldly. "Those shameless wretches were annihilated by my own hand. If you dare to spout more nonsense, you'll end up just like them! Now, get out of my sight!"

The people of the Jun Family were so incensed they nearly vomited blood, yet they dared not cross Jun Mo. With grim expressions, they turned and departed.

Leading his group back to the Ancient Blood Sacred Hall, the sage-like old man took the main seat, his face clouded. "Esteemed members, that traitor Jun Mo displays arrogance beyond measure. Now that he has returned to the Jun Family, he has undoubtedly provoked the Nine Cold Sect. How shall we address this situation?"

Upon hearing this, the Third Elder's eyes darted, and he interjected, "This is entirely the fault of Jun Tianye and Jun Chaoyang. As Jun Mo's direct elders, they allowed him to act so atrociously. These two must face severe punishment!"

Jun Tianye and Jun Chaoyang's faces contorted in alarm. They quickly glanced at the sage-like old man, only to find his gaze fixed on them, radiating killing intent, a clear indication of his murderous rage.

Seeing this, Jun Tianye and the others felt a growing dread, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

"Sage-like old man! I have a plan. I can feign an apology to my second brother. Being his elder brother, he will surely not suspect me. I will poison his food, and once we capture my second brother and his wife, that brat Jun Mo will be forced to obey us!"

Jun Tianye urgently addressed the sage-like old man, shouting loudly.

The sage-like old man's gaze flickered, clearly intrigued by Jun Tianye's scheme. He then slammed his hand on the armrest.

"Excellent! If that is the case, I shall contact the Nine Cold Sect and implore their leniency. You will then act to seize Jun Mo's parents, and I will personally escort Jun Mo to the Nine Cold Sect to atone for his crimes!"

The sage-like old man declared decisively.

Subsequently, the sage-like old man extended his hand, forming seals. Streams of blood-colored patterns surged into the Void, eventually coalescing into a blood-red water surface suspended in mid-air. Ripples spread across its surface, blood essence churning—this was precisely the Jun Family's communication spell.

At this moment, the blood-red water surface rippled, and a face materialized before everyone's eyes. This individual was none other than Ying Xiangyun.

"Hm? It's you. Why are you contacting me?"

Ying Xiangyun harbored a sense of guilt towards the Jun Family and was aware that Jun Mo might have returned. He was merely waiting for three days to pass before visiting the Jun Family to offer his apologies. Now, seeing the sage-like old man and the others reaching out to him, he couldn't help but feel surprised.

As for the sage-like old man, his eyes flashed with apprehension upon seeing Ying Xiangyun. They had all heard numerous accounts of Ying Xiangyun's inherent cruelty. Jun Mo's recent return to the clan had undoubtedly angered Ying Xiangyun. Should the latter decide to exact punishment, they would find themselves in dire straits.

Thus, the sage-like old man spoke with palpable panic and unease: "Grand Elder, that traitor Jun Mo is ignorant and unruly, daring to flee back from the Nine Cold Sect. I will personally capture Jun Mo and deliver him to the Nine Cold Sect. I trust, my lord, that you will not hold us accountable."

Upon hearing this, Ying Xiangyun's gaze shifted, taking on a peculiar hue. It appeared Jun Mo had not disclosed the events within the Nine Cold Sect to the Jun Family.

However, upon reflection, Jun Mo had personally slain those Jun Family guards within the Nine Cold Sect, clearly indicating a strained relationship with the Jun Family. It was entirely plausible that he would withhold information about the Nine Cold Sect from them.

At this juncture, Ying Xiangyun revealed a subtle smile before inquiring, "To my knowledge, Jun Mo's Ancient Blood Nether Body exerts an extremely potent suppressive force upon you. I am curious as to how you intend to capture him and personally deliver him to me."

These words caused the sage-like old man's face to beam with delight. He perceived that Ying Xiangyun did not seem inclined towards anger and hastily replied, "That is a simple matter. Jun Mo is a filial son. As long as we capture his parents, we can compel him to obey our every command."

"Rest assured, my lord, these two are Jun Mo’s father’s own elder brothers. Jun Mo’s parents will not suspect them. They will personally seize Jun Mo’s parents, and then Jun Mo will surely make another trip to the Nine Cold Sect."

"Hahaha!"

Hearing the sage-like old man’s words, Ying Xiangyun suddenly burst out laughing, and in the next moment his gaze turned icy as it fell on Jun Tianye and Jun Chaoyang.

"You two—Jun Mo is your own nephew by blood, and his father is your own blood brother, yet you can stoop to something so filthy. You’ve truly opened my eyes!"

At these words, all the Jun Family members were stunned. Wasn’t Ying Xiangyun trying to obtain Jun Mo? Why was he saying this now? What on earth was going on?

Facing the Jun Family’s confusion, Ying Xiangyun’s gaze was indifferent: "To tell you the truth, your Ancestor of Jun Family suffered Deviation in cultivation training because of my meddling. The sect master has already punished me for this. In some time I will personally go to the Jun Family to save your ancestor, and I will also kneel and apologize to you."

"And Ye Chen and Jun Mo will be honored guests of my Nine Cold Sect. As for you lot—see to yourselves."

With that, two streaks of cold light suddenly shot out from Ying Xiangyun’s eyes. That bone-chilling radiance was terrifying to the extreme, actually piercing through the blood-colored water surface and manifesting directly inside the Ancient Blood Sacred Hall, boring through the bodies of Jun Tianye and Jun Chaoyang.

"Ah!"

At this moment, the miserable screams of Jun Tianye and the other rang out—their level of cultivation had actually been abolished by Ying Xiangyun.

"These two utterly shameless bastards, I’ve taught them a lesson on Jun Mo’s behalf. As for how they should be punished in the end, that’s Jun Mo’s business."

Right after, the blood-colored water surface collapsed, and Ying Xiangyun’s figure vanished.

In the entire Ancient Blood Sacred Hall, everyone’s expression was extremely strange, even frozen, their eyes dull as they stared at Jun Tianye and the other lying on the ground howling in misery.

Nobody had expected things to end up like this. Jun Mo’s return not only failed to offend the Nine Cold Sect, he actually became a distinguished guest of the Nine Cold Sect.

And the fact that their own Ancestor of Jun Family had gone into Deviation during cultivation training had actually been done personally by Ying Xiangyun. Ying Xiangyun could be said to be a life-and-death enemy of the Jun Family, yet they had been about to personally send the most promising, most gifted Jun Mo—who had awakened the Ancient Blood Nether Body—into Ying Xiangyun’s hands.

After learning the truth, the members of the Jun Family felt infinitely ashamed of what they had done, each and every face now ashen.

At the same time, Jun Tianye and Jun Chaoyang were even more terrified. For the sake of their own利益, they had done utterly shameless things to Jun Mo’s whole family. Now that Jun Mo had become a distinguished guest of the Nine Cold Sect, their fate could well be imagined.

The first to react was the sage-like old man. At this moment, his eyes were filled with killing intent as he glared at Jun Tianye and the other, and directly barked an order: "Men, seize these two and drag them over to Jun Mo’s house. Hand them over for Jun Mo to deal with!"

In the next moment, the sage-like old man and the others once again arrived at Jun Mo’s home. All of them knelt to apologize, and at the same time told Jun Mo everything that had happened regarding their contact with the Nine Cold Sect. They then personally shoved Jun Tianye and Jun Chaoyang in front of Jun Mo for him to dispose of as he wished.

Hearing what they said, Jun Mo turned a cold gaze toward Jun Tianye and the other. These were the people dearest to him in the past, yet they had struck his family the hardest. There was an uncontrollable killing intent in Jun Mo’s eyes.

But when he saw the complicated look in his father’s eyes, Jun Mo ultimately waved his hand and said, "Let the two of them crawl away. From this day on, they are expelled from the Jun Family and are never to return to Wushuang Ancient City."

"We’ll do as you say!"

Right now, the sage-like old man replied with a fawning look, then turned to the other nine members of the Elder Council, and they spoke in unison: "Jun Mo, your heaven-defying spiritual root is peerless, and your heart is broad. Our Elder Council is unanimous that only you are worthy to become the Jun Family Patriarch. We beg Jun Mo Patriarch to take the position!"

"We beg Jun Mo Patriarch to take the position!"

The Jun Family members, currently kneeling by the entrance, cried out in unison. A great many of them genuinely felt remorse from the depths of their hearts. Upon grasping the full truth and reflecting on their past actions, especially those of Jun Mo, they finally recognized his true character. He was indeed worthy of their utmost respect and deserved to hold the esteemed position of family head.

However, as Jun Mo regarded the elder who resembled a sage and the other family members, he simply shook his head with an indifferent expression. "I shall not accept the position of family head. My only hope is that you all conduct yourselves with propriety henceforth and refrain from such disgraceful acts again."

Upon hearing his declaration, the faces of the sage-like elder and the others visibly trembled. They initially mistook Jun Mo's firm refusal as a childish tantrum and persisted in their pleas for him to assume the leadership. Yet, Jun Mo's stance remained resolute. He steadfastly declined, ultimately dismissing them all from his presence.

Following this encounter, Jun Mo spent the entire day at home, keeping his parents company. Now that he had attained the status of a distinguished guest within the Nine Cold Sect, his parents' standing within the Jun Family would undoubtedly soar. Henceforth, no one would dare to challenge or provoke them.

After dedicating a day to his parents and ensuring their future security, Jun Mo bid them farewell once more. His next objective was to seek out the Sky-covering Demon Emperor.

Having navigated the recent ordeal at the Nine Cold Sect, Jun Mo's bond with Ye Chen had been forged even stronger. He felt an even greater certainty in his heart that Ye Chen's future accomplishments would be boundless. The closer he remained to Ye Chen, the more substantial his own future triumphs would become.

Encountering Ye Chen was, without a doubt, the most significant stroke of fortune in Jun Mo's entire life. He resolved in his heart that, no matter the circumstances in the future, he would steadfastly remain by Ye Chen's side!

...

Meanwhile, across the expanse, Ye Chen followed the precise location provided by Luo Huai'an and discovered the secluded sanctuary where Wei Ying was currently immersed in closed-door cultivation.

The location was a colossal mountain, its peak piercing through the veil of the clouds, permanently shrouded in an endless blanket of ice and snow. The biting cold had even solidified into countless sharp Frost Sword blades, which howled through the sky like ethereal dancers in a frigid, desolate hell.

At this very moment, Ye Chen set foot upon the daunting mountain, ascending its slopes with deliberate strides toward the Juehan Mountain Peak. Simultaneously, he detected an aura that was profoundly deep, vast, and majestic, circulating throughout the area.

This particular aura was exceedingly potent, saturated with a blazing fighting spirit and an unyielding killing intent. Its sheer intensity was terrifying, causing Ye Chen's expression to subtly tense as he unconsciously quickened his pace.

Before long, Ye Chen arrived at the summit of Juehan Mountain Peak. There, he observed a solitary figure seated in a cross-legged posture atop the mountain's crest. It was none other than the familiar, enigmatic woman – the elder witch Ling Yun of Juehan Palace.

At this critical juncture, this mysterious woman was clearly in the throes of a cultivation breakthrough, having reached the pivotal moment of her advancement, even to the extent of eliciting a celestial phenomenon.

Surrounding the mysterious woman, turbulent currents of Battle Qi and killing intent swirled fiercely. One after another, ferocious and terrifying Asura spectral figures materialized, their roars echoing in a furious challenge toward the woman at the mountain's peak.

Witnessing this spectacle, Ye Chen's gaze sharpened. The mysterious woman's aura appeared somewhat unstable at present. It seemed her breakthrough had been disrupted, her mind in a state of agitation, leading to this perilous situation.
