Urban Romantic Divine Doctor Chapter 1641 - 1638: Demon in the Mortal World

A voice from the outside caused Lin Yiren’s pupils to constrict instantly, overwhelming her eyes with a torrent of fear.

A chilling sensation coursed from her spine to her heart, leaving her mind blank, filled only with endless terror and despair.

She had never anticipated that the nightmarish followers of Master Yuding would descend upon her residence, intending to forcibly abduct her into servitude!

Sensing his sister-in-law’s palpable fear, Xu Wendong’s heart clenched. “What has happened, sister-in-law? Who is this Master Yuding, and why does he want you to serve him?” he inquired.

Lin Yiren’s delicate frame still trembled, the fear in her eyes intensifying until it was almost a tangible entity.

It was only Xu Wendong’s persistent calls that allowed her to partially break free from the swamp of shock. She instinctively swallowed, attempting to regulate her chaotic breathing and speak with less panic. “You wouldn’t know,” she began. “In the eighteen years since you departed, the world has undergone seismic shifts, experiencing earth-shattering changes.”

“It wasn’t merely rapid technological advancement, but rather a mysterious and potent cultivation force that quietly emerged. Countless local cultivators blossomed like stars, independent of the Kunlun Mountains' cultivation system, forming their own distinct power.”

She paused, drawing a deep breath before continuing. “Here in Qingyuan City, we now possess a supreme expert at the Golden Core Stage Peak, a veritable god among men, who calls himself Master Wudao.”

“His reputation is dread-inspiring. A mere stomp of his foot can convulse the entirety of Qingyuan City, plunging it into panic and chaos.”

“Under his command are seven formidable disciples, and Master Yuding is one of them.”

“Though he only wields the power of the Golden Core Late Stage, within Qingyuan City’s domain, he is already infamous—a tyrannical and ruthless individual whom no one dares to provoke lightly.”

Lin Yiren’s voice involuntarily carried a tremor, the shame in her eyes becoming more apparent. “This Master Yuding is nothing short of a demon in human guise, his lecherous reputation echoing throughout Qingyuan City.”

“He is consumed by insatiable lust, relentlessly using every conceivable method to coerce female cultivators of Qingyuan City into serving him at his mansion daily.”

“Those unfortunate women, should they display even the slightest hint of resistance, immediately become victims of his brutality. Their entire families might face catastrophic ruin, completely obliterated from existence!”

Upon uttering this, Lin Yiren’s fists clenched tightly, her knuckles turning bone-white. She bit her lower lip, her face a mask of humiliation and resentment. “Wendong, remain here peacefully for now. Do not move about carelessly. I will go meet Master Yuding myself and see if there is any room for negotiation.”

Lin Yiren was acutely aware that although Xu Wendong had been immensely powerful in the past, unparalleled in the cultivation world.

Yet now, after eighteen years of separation, she could distinctly perceive that Xu Wendong’s aura was far less potent than before; his cultivation level had evidently diminished considerably.

With his current strength, attempting to contend with Master Yuding would be akin to an egg striking a rock—there was simply no hope for victory.

Witnessing this, a hint of a bitter smile touched Xu Wendong’s lips. He softly inquired, “Sister-in-law, you wouldn’t truly intend to serve him, would you?”

Lin Yiren was momentarily taken aback, then gazed deeply at Xu Wendong, her eyes betraying an unwilling trace of pain. “I… I am absolutely unwilling to serve him, not a thousand, not ten thousand times.”

“In my heart, for the remainder of my life, only you are the one to whom I willingly entrust my very being.”

“But… but if I refuse, neither of us will survive!”

“You were absent from my side for so long, and now you have finally returned. How could I possibly stand by and watch you meet misfortune because of me, and fall into utter doom?”

With that, she slowly rose, reached out, untied the apron she wore, and decisively moved to step outside the door.

However, at that precise moment, Xu Wendong swiftly advanced, firmly grasping Lin Yiren’s hand. His face was adorned with a confident and disarmingly charming smile. “Sister-in-law, do not underestimate me!”

“You must not have thought that I had wasted these eighteen years, have you?”

Lin Yiren fell into immediate silence.

She knew full well that Xu Wendong had possessed Golden Core Stage cultivation before his departure. Now, upon his return, he merely displayed strength at the Foundation Establishment Stage. The disparity was self-evident; whether he had wasted his time was clear at a glance, requiring no further words to explain.

Xu Wendong appeared to read her thoughts, lightly shaking his head. He maintained his faint, confident smile as he said, "Sister-in-law, this is a complicated matter, not something that can be explained with just a few words."

"However, you must have faith in me. I have never wasted my time, and although I may currently appear to be only at the Foundation Establishment Stage, the strength I possess is far from ordinary."

"Whether it's a powerhouse at the Golden Core Stage or a venerable elder of the Nascent Soul Realm, they are nothing more than ants before me, not even worth mentioning!"

What Xu Wendong uttered was the absolute truth, without a single falsehood.

Even though his cultivation level seemed to have plummeted to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

In reality, his physical body had been refined and tempered over eighteen years, rendering it as tough as a divine artifact, utterly indestructible.

Furthermore, his soul force was immensely potent, exceeding ordinary comprehension and soaring far above common mortals. This was the very source of his confidence in confronting Master Yuding directly.

At this precise moment.

A voice that was both familiar and commanding echoed once more: "Miss Lin, I know you are within the villa. If you do not reveal yourself, do not blame me for resorting to forceful measures!"

Observing the distressed state of Lin Yiren, Xu Wendong gently planted a kiss on her alluring red lips, a confident smile gracing his features. "Trust me!"

Lin Yiren nodded solemnly. Despite her lingering disbelief that Xu Wendong could overcome Master Yuding, she resolved to place her trust in him!

For her, the most dire outcome would be embarking on their journey to the Netherworld together!

Would venturing into the Netherworld hand-in-hand with the man she loved not be a romantic and beautiful conclusion?

"Let's go meet this so-called Master Yuding!" Xu Wendong's lips curved upwards slightly, a hint of a smile playing on them. He then took his sister-in-law's hand and stepped forward, coming face-to-face with a middle-aged man clad in white robes, his brows sharp like swords and his eyes like shining stars.

Upon witnessing Xu Wendong and Lin Yiren emerge, hand in hand, Zhao Yin could not help but knit his brows, a flicker of bewilderment crossing his eyes. "Miss Lin, who is this individual accompanying you? Could he possibly be your husband?"

"Oh my, you truly understand Master Yuding well!"

Hearing this remark.

Both Xu Wendong and Lin Yiren involuntarily furrowed their brows.

How exactly did they understand Master Yuding?
