The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3814: I Can Help You (Third Update)

However, faced with this dire predicament, Ye Chen found himself unable to offer aid to the mysterious woman. His intervention, given their disparate cultivation methods, might inadvertently plunge her into even greater peril.

At this critical juncture, the mysterious woman's aura intensified, its turbulence sending ripples through the very fabric of the void. The battle energy and potent killing intent swirling around her escalated, manifesting into fearsome, ferocious beasts that let out terrifying roars and snarls in her ears.

"This is not good!"

Ye Chen keenly felt the chaotic surge of spiritual energy within the mysterious woman, a wildly fluctuating wave of power spreading unstoppably.

In the subsequent moment, the mysterious woman suddenly expelled a mouthful of blood. Her once pristine, jade-like skin began to crack, spewing forth blood. She then crumpled to the ground, clearly fallen into unconsciousness.

"How can this be?"

Ye Chen knitted his brows in concern. This mysterious woman possessed an extraordinary talent and harbored a profound secret; how could she possibly fail in her attempt to break through?

Yet, this was hardly the moment for Ye Chen to indulge in contemplation. The backlash she endured was exceptionally severe, and her life hung precariously in the balance. Without a second thought, Ye Chen swiftly moved to her side, gathering her into his arms. He then decisively cut his own wrist, offering his blood to her.

Despite an intense curiosity regarding her identity and the face concealed behind her veil, Ye Chen was not one to exploit another's misfortune. He chose not to unveil her true appearance at this vulnerable moment.

As Ye Chen's blood flowed into the mysterious woman's mouth, the previously rampaging spiritual energy within her began to subside. Her severely wounded body, battered by the failed breakthrough's backlash, commenced a rapid healing process, the fissures on her skin sealing perfectly.

Observing the mysterious woman's stabilized condition, Ye Chen gently released her and settled into a cross-legged position beside her, assuming a protective stance.

After a brief interval, Ye Chen perceived the mysterious woman exhibiting subtle signs of regaining consciousness, compelling him to glance in her direction.

At that precise instant, the mysterious woman's long eyelashes fluttered. A moment later, her eyes snapped open abruptly.

Upon seeing the individual before her, a flicker of alarm crossed Wei Ying's eyes. She found it difficult to comprehend Ye Chen's presence in this location.

At this same moment, Wei Ying recalled the events preceding her loss of consciousness. She had procured an ancient artifact from the Nine Cold Sect to facilitate her breakthrough, only to face a severe backlash. After fainting, she had perceived herself in a comforting, warm embrace, her body suffused with warmth—a sensation she attributed to Ye Chen's timely arrival.

"How could you possibly be here?"

Realizing she had fainted and that her true identity might have been revealed to Ye Chen, Wei Ying's heart was consumed by a profound sense of panic as she inquired, her gaze darting around.

Noticing Wei Ying's agitated reaction, Ye Chen found it somewhat peculiar but opted for complete transparency. "Not long ago, I visited the Nine Cold Sect to attend to a few matters. I happened to hear about you from Sect Master Luo, which prompted me to check on your well-being. I certainly didn't anticipate finding you suffering from a breakthrough backlash," he explained.

Hearing his words, and particularly meeting Ye Chen's gaze, Wei Ying felt a measure of reassurance. It appeared that Ye Chen had not glimpsed her true face while she was unconscious, allowing her to exhale a sigh of relief.

"So, that is how it is. Thank you profoundly for your assistance this time. If it hadn't been for your intervention, I might have..."

Wei Ying trailed off at this point, shaking her head and leaving the sentence unfinished.

Although Wei Ying did not complete her statement, Ye Chen grasped her unspoken meaning. He responded with a placid smile, "You have aided me on several occasions. It is only fitting that I offer my assistance when you find yourself in distress."

At this juncture, Ye Chen also voiced his perplexity. "However, given your exceptional talent, achieving a breakthrough should not have presented such difficulties. How did you end up suffering such a severe backlash?"

In response to Ye Chen's inquiry, a fleeting look of helplessness crossed Wei Ying's features as she proceeded to explain, "It is entirely due to the overwhelmingly potent item I acquired. Its nature makes it exceedingly challenging for me to control and refine."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen's curiosity intensified regarding the specific item Wei Ying had obtained from the Nine Cold Sect. For it to be something even her considerable talent could not fully master was truly astonishing.

Just as Ye Chen prepared to probe further, Wei Ying continued, "Not long ago, I felt the opportune moment for a breakthrough had arrived. Therefore, in accordance with Emperor Juehan's decree, I proceeded to the Nine Cold Sect to request the ancient sacred artifact they possessed."

"This ancient sacred artifact is designated as the Fierce Battle Absolute Cold Tripod. It contains an immeasurable battle intent, a formidable weapon forged amidst a Corpse Mountain Blood Sea. Although I have managed to refine it to some extent, wielding it remains a significant challenge."

"Over the past few days of my refining process, I have sensed that with every cultivation session, my spiritual energy devolves into chaos, and I have frequently experienced Cultivation Deviation. However, upon awakening now, I realize that this condition appears to be somewhat suppressed, likely a consequence of the influence of your blood."

With her lovely eyes sparkling, Wei Ying remarked to Ye Chen,

"Oh?

This statement brought a hint of surprise to Ye Chen, but he quickly understood. His reincarnation bloodline, it seemed, was exceptionally potent in this world, capable of subduing the Fierce Battle Absolute Cold Tripod. Moreover, his blood contained the divine artifacts Netherworld Water and Moon Liquid Spirit Marrow, which possessed remarkable efficacy in quelling the Fierce Battle Absolute Cold Tripod.

"I understand. In that case...

A flicker of intent stirred within Ye Chen, and he suddenly clasped Wei Ying's hand.

Wei Ying hadn't anticipated Ye Chen's sudden grasp, causing a blush to creep onto her face. She gazed at him in a flustered state, contemplating extricating herself, yet finding his hand remarkably warm and not wishing to let go.

Just then, Wei Ying sensed an immense, profound, and incredibly mystical power coursing into her body, making its way towards the Fierce Battle Absolute Cold Tripod within. It dawned on her instantly that Ye Chen's intention was not to take liberties, but rather to offer assistance.

Ye Chen's energy continued to pour into Wei Ying's form, and he, too, perceived the presence of the Fierce Battle Absolute Cold Tripod.

Ye Chen vaguely grasped that his power exerted a significant suppressive influence on the Fierce Battle Absolute Cold Tripod. He then employed the Moon Liquid Spirit Marrow and Netherworld Water, which proved exceptionally effective in its subjugation.

Observing this, Ye Chen's eyebrows lifted slightly, his eyes alight with brilliance as a perfect strategy formed in his mind.

"I can help you break through."

Ye Chen looked directly at Wei Ying and declared.

"Really?

Upon hearing his words, Wei Ying's eyes shone with sheer delight. She was intimately familiar with the formidable nature of the Fierce Battle Absolute Cold Tripod. For ages, she had exerted her own power to suppress it, but regardless of the amount of spiritual energy she channeled, the effect was fleeting, vanishing almost as soon as it appeared.

Consequently, even after discerning the suppressive effect Ye Chen's blood and power had on the Fierce Battle Absolute Cold Tripod, Wei Ying hadn't truly believed he could aid her. To hear his assurance now filled her with pleased surprise.

"It is indeed true."

Ye Chen affirmed with sincerity, "I can channel the power that effectively suppresses the Fierce Battle Absolute Cold Tripod into your body, allowing you to initiate your breakthrough immediately. Should the Fierce Battle Absolute Cold Tripod stir and destabilize your spiritual energy, I will swiftly employ this power to subdue it. However, there is one condition..."
