Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain Chapter 2755 - 2754: Remember Your Promise!
Previously on Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain...
A gentle warm current softly swept across Lin Dong’s heart, stirring a profound emotion that urged him to step ahead and approach Ye Linglong directly.
Beneath the night sky, intricate emotions flickered in Ye Linglong’s eyes, blending eagerness with a faint hint of anxiety.
Her voice came out softly, trembling just a little as she said:
"War God Lin, is it because my strength is too low, so... you look down on me, right?"
Hearing those words, Lin Dong experienced a sudden surge of warmth and gentleness.
He shook his head softly, extended his hand to caress Ye Linglong’s silky hair, his gaze shining with traces of fondness and motivation.
"Silly girl..." he murmured tenderly, "Don’t worry, you’re bound to claim first place this time. Remember, I’m by your side. With the secret weapons I’ve readied for you, I’ll ensure you dominate your realm, crushing all rivals at the same level."
His words rang with solid assurance and comforting warmth, capable of sweeping away every worry and uncertainty.
Lin Dong’s lips curved into a grin as he added, "I’m eagerly awaiting the day you ascend to Heavenly Realm Martial Artist, then we’ll charge forward side by side."
These words mixed light-hearted banter and teasing, yet they also revealed his hopes for Ye Linglong’s path ahead, symbolizing a promise yet to be fulfilled between them.
Under the moonlight, Ye Linglong’s face flushed pink, as though Lin Dong’s assurance had sparked a fire within her.
All at once, she resolved something in her mind; her eyes sparkled with mischief, and in a quick move, she surprised Lin Dong—rising on her toes to plant a deep kiss on his lips.
Lin Dong froze for a second, caught off guard by Ye Linglong’s bold move.
Yet, the fervent and inviting sensation quickly overwhelmed him, drawing him into the moment without resistance.
Right when he prepared to return her affectionate gesture with equal passion, Ye Linglong darted away like a playful sprite, evading his arms, her sparkling eyes fixed on him with a cheeky grin.
"Haha, War God Lin, you fell for my trick." Her laugh rang clear and delightful, laced with triumph, "Truth is, I came tonight just to steal a kiss from you."
"Back then, you stole a kiss from me, leaving me longing endlessly, my heart aching day and night... Now, I’ve paid you back."
Lin Dong remained rooted in place, a faint smile lingering on his mouth, warmth flooding his chest.
He hadn’t anticipated Ye Linglong’s fun-loving facet, which left him both astonished and touched.
Ye Linglong burst into even merrier laughter at his reaction, then spun around and dashed toward the exit. Pausing just before leaving, she glanced back with a resolute and earnest look:
"War God Lin, don’t forget your promise. That old bet was my vow to you. And tonight, you promised to go all out with me once I reach Heavenly Realm Martial Artist—that’s your vow to me now."
With those words out, Ye Linglong’s cheeks burned like a ripe apple; unable to linger, she bolted from the room.
Only after Ye Linglong vanished completely from sight did Lin Dong snap back to reality.
He touched his lips, still tingling with warmth, a smile tugging uncontrollably at his mouth. Softly, he whispered, "This girl..."
His murmur brimmed with fondness and a touch of exasperation.
She possessed a unique physique too.
Legends claimed that dual cultivation with a woman of such a physique yields astonishing results.
And dual cultivating with holders of the nine unique physiques brings benefits beyond imagination.
His view on dual cultivation had shifted from his earlier perspective.
Before, he dismissed it as deviant practice, but a thorough explanation led him to a balanced view.
Employed through proper methods, dual cultivation harmonizes yin and yang between partners, offering no harm but mutual gains instead.
Pairing it with the nine unique physiques unlocks unimaginable advantages.
It even hinted at a legendary secret!
Whether that legend held truth remained uncertain, of course.
Lin Dong shook his head, pushing the matter aside for now.
Soon, his mindset settled into tranquility, treating the earlier sweet and whimsical encounter as merely a brief life moment.
He went back to the workbench stacked with diverse materials and herbs, diving fully into crafting secret weapons for the soldiers in tomorrow’s contest.
As Lin Dong examined the herbs in his grasp, thoughts raced through his mind:
"Martial Arts Masters’ power marks a huge jump from Gold-Realm Martial Artists, yet in my view, there’s still plenty of potential for growth."
"The secret weapons for them can’t be mere standard ’Enhancement Pills.’ Those might serve as potent boosters for Gold-Realm Martial Artists, but they fall short for Martial Arts Masters."
"That’s why I’m crafting ’Super Enhancement Pills’ for them—an upgraded version tailored for Martial Arts Masters."
"Taking these will multiply their power fivefold briefly, providing massive edge in the fights ahead. In their realm, such superior aids are rarer than phoenix feathers or qilin horns."
A gleam of certainty flashed in Lin Dong’s eyes, envisioning those Martial Arts Masters dominating the arena gloriously.
His mind pressed onward: "For the martial arts masters, though, it’s a different story."
"They’ve stepped into an entirely superior stage. Neither ’Enhancement Pills’ nor ’Super Enhancement Pills’ offer much; any power gain feels trivial, like a mere droplet in the vast sea, barely stirring waves. Thus, their secret weapons demand a fresh approach, beyond pill-based boosts."
Lin Dong’s forehead creased faintly as he pondered deeply.
He understood that third-grade pills and above required scarce ingredients and intricate processes, impossible to whip up quickly now.
Still, he refused to abandon the search for ideal secret weapons for the martial arts masters.
"What can I provide them?" Lin Dong mulled repeatedly, ideas surging in his thoughts.
"Handing over mighty martial skills or lost arts won’t work—they lack time to master them. Scratch that option."
Suddenly, inspiration struck, lighting up his eyes.
"Yes! I’ll leverage my Divine Talismans expertise to create custom ones! They’ll boost defense immensely and deliver critical power surges when needed."
"This lets them unleash exceptional might on the field, pill-free."
A pleased grin spread across Lin Dong’s face with that realization.
"Which talismans suit them best?" He pondered once more.
"Maybe I should craft that specific talisman..." His eyes brightened anew, recalling a particular one.
