Invincible Little School Doctor

”How would I know so much?”

Seeing Su Zehao asking himself, Ye Haochuan shamelessly smiled and said, ”Because I am a genius who is omnipotent and omniscient, of course. What, you want to be a genius too? Then go back and eat more pig brains; it’s great for replenishment.”

”You this guy...”

Su Zehao gave a wry smile and shook his head, thinking to himself that his earlier questions had been pointless and had only led to being teased.

Seeing him silently suffer the insult, Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but want to laugh, but it wasn’t the time for jokes. Changing the subject, he pondered aloud, ”Brother Zehao, let’s stop fooling around. What should we do next? You’ve depleted too much True Qi, and with us dragging along this burden, our movements will likely be hindered.”

If anyone’s making a fool, it’s you. If anyone’s not, it’s also you. What more do you want?

Su Zehao felt briefly depressed and shook his head, ”This is the outer area of the underground abyss. The Underground Demons aren’t scary, but it’s inevitable that we’ll encounter many Disciples of Hellfire. I think we should find a safe place to rest for a while so I can regain some strength...”

Ye Haochuan nodded and said, ”Then it seems we have no choice but to keep heading deeper into the underground abyss.”

”Hmm.”

Once they had agreed, they immediately set off.

Since Chiyo couldn’t move and Su Zehao had limited strength, the task of carrying her fell to Ye Haochuan, but laughably, the lad had plenty of cheeky remarks: ”Ah, my life is tough. I’ve always had women under me, never thought I’d have one riding me today. Sad, oh, sad!”

Give me a break, so many men would envy such a ’misfortune,’ yet here you are, acting all sorrowful about it.

Su Zehao once again witnessed his shameless demeanor.

At this time, Chiyo was overwhelmed with humiliation. This despicable Huaxia man, carrying her was one thing, but to think he would start touching her, her buttocks no less, was simply too vulgar. She hated that she couldn’t fight or scold him, otherwise she would definitely teach this detestable guy a harsh lesson.

The trio continued on their way, encountering increasingly more monsters, including the extraordinarily springy Yakshas.

In Ye Haochuan’s view, Yakshas were simply an evolved version of demons. Except for their appearance being similar to demons, it was only because their thighs were highly developed that they had such amazing jumping abilities.

Therefore, hiding in cracks or caves in the rock walls was absolutely out of the question.

Because of this, many who wished to enter the deep parts of the underground abyss would not choose the main path like Ye Haochuan but would instead pick secluded trails with very few monsters.

As a result, Ye Haochuan and his companions seldom encountered their own kind, which lessened their troubles.

”Brother Haochuan, fortunately, you can concoct that special concoction that prevents demons and Yakshas from detecting us; otherwise, we wouldn’t have gotten in so smoothly today,” Su Zehao remarked.

Ye Haochuan inwardly felt ashamed. If not for Holy Hand’s memory inheritance, I wouldn’t be able to produce this special concoction, he thought, offering a humble laugh.

As long as there were no demons or Yakshas nearby, the two would chat as they walked, making the journey quite relaxed.

However, the deeper they went, the higher the temperature became, making it nearly unbearable. Thankfully, Ye Haochuan and his companions had prepared Heat-Resistant Ice Beads, so they could endure it.

Suddenly, the path ahead cleared, revealing an area dotted with fiery red lava pools, but it was empty.

”We’ve finally reached the lava zone at the deepest part of the underground abyss. Let’s find a place to rest, gather our energy, and then move further in,” Su Zehao said while looking around, ”There’s a cave over there; let’s go there.”

Ye Haochuan followed his gaze and saw that around the periphery of the lava zone, there were many lava caves. Although the demons and yakshas liked hot environments, this place’s high temperature was still unbearable for them, so there weren’t many demons or yakshas active here.

Following Su Zehao to a lava cave, Ye Haochuan immediately put Chiyo down and jokingly said to her, ”I’m telling you, Chiyo, you should really lose some weight. You’re as heavy as a mother pig. What man would dare to marry you?”

Chiyo just huffed lightly without speaking, clearly expressing her dissatisfaction with the way she had been taken advantage of during the journey.

Oh, not talking, huh? That’s what I call being reserved. Don’t think that I don’t know.

Ye Haochuan shook his head, saw Su Zehao quietly meditating, and sat down with his legs crossed as well. However, after meditating for an hour, he felt the True Qi in his Dantian was full and he was refreshed. Looking at Su Zehao, he noticed he was still in the midst of meditating.

It made sense. Su Zehao had used up a lot of Literary Qi before and now needed more time meditating to recover.

For a while, Ye Haochuan felt idle and began to observe the lava zone outside the cave.

The lava pools in the lava zone were numerous, varying in size. The largest was as big as a pond, and the smallest was only about the size of a palm, but the lava within was bubbling fiercely, so much that standing nearby would likely bake a person dry.

Fire Dragon Grass, an extremely rare and uncommon plant, grew on the lava ash beside these lava pools, surviving on the constant radiant heat from the magma.

Ye Haochuan even spotted several Fire Dragon Grass plants. However, the majority were still in a lengthy growth phase and had not yet flowered and seeded.

But even if there were any that had flowered and seeded, they would probably have already been picked by human Martial Arts Path masters who intruded here.

So, to obtain seeds of Fire Dragon Grass, one must brave deeper into the lava zone.

”Quick, look, they’re over there!”

At that moment, a man’s voice came from outside the cave.

Ye Haochuan immediately woke up, looked outside, and Su Zehao, who had been meditating, also opened his eyes alertly and stood up with him.

Just as they reached the cave entrance, they saw a group of disciples dressed in Ancient Martial Arts Sect garments rushing towards them, a total of five people.

Moreover, among these five people, aside from the four who were in the Postnatal Realm, there was also an Innate Realm master!

This Innate Realm master was not wearing the Insignia Robe that symbolized the Outer Sect Disciples, but the Vestment Robe that symbolized the Inner Sect Disciples.

Unlike the Postnatal Realm Outer Sect Disciples, Inner Sect Disciples who had entered the Innate Realm possessed Mana.

Mana is based on the existence of Gang Qi.

With Mana, one possesses spells, can prolong life, spew water and fire, fly through the sky, and control lightning, among other things.

However, to obtain Mana, one must first convert True Qi into Gang Qi. Once this transformation is completed, one can break through and become an Innate Master, thereby advancing their status.

Is it a blessing or a curse?

Seeing that there was an Innate Master among these people, Ye Haochuan and Su Zehao both exchanged a glance and saw the worry in each other’s eyes.
