Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 1209: Chapter 1208: Damn it, burning bridges after crossing the river, huh? (2nd update)

”Communicating with the gods is not an easy task; it requires a completely secure place and could take dozens of days...” the mage said with difficulty.

Hearing this, Ye Haochuan also realized he was being too impatient. He thought for a moment and said, ”How about this, come back to Huaxia with me, as long as you help me solve this crisis, I promise you won’t be treated poorly!”

”However, before that, you must sign a blood covenant with me!”

The mage frowned upon hearing this, but when his gaze fell upon the holy bead, he suddenly gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement.

Becoming a dedicated priest had been his lifelong dream, but within the Dark Church, holy beads were limited, and he never really had a chance to develop.

Now that Ye Haochuan had a holy bead, and there was no one to compete with him, missing this opportunity might mean he would never have another one in his lifetime.

After the blood covenant was completed, Ye Haochuan learned the mage’s name. This young mage named Horton, with nothing to lose, had no difficulty pledging allegiance to Ye Haochuan.

With a solution for Lin Qingxuan’s situation, Ye Haochuan felt his mood lighten immediately.

”Let’s go, take us to see what’s in the treasure vault first,” Ye Haochuan said with anticipation.

The mage, now Ye Haochuan’s servant, had no grounds for resistance and obediently led them there.

The Dark Church’s treasure vault was located in a concealed corner. If Yale hadn’t told him beforehand, he might have searched for quite a while.

The vault was surrounded by a protective shield, but it couldn’t withstand the fierce onslaught from Golden Tiger’s raining attacks and turned to dust in moments.

Ye Haochuan opened the gate with anticipation, but to his disappointment, although there were many items inside, there weren’t many good ones.

There were stacks of magical treasures, all below law-level. The few spiritual artifacts present were of no use to him.

”Junior Brother Ye, is this the Hundred Years Black Ginseng you mentioned?” Golden Tiger suddenly exclaimed excitedly.

Ye Haochuan followed the sound and saw Golden Tiger holding two black ginseng plants. Sure enough, they were black ginseng, and not young ones either.

”Haha, it seems we’ve hit the mark this time!” Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but smile with excitement. The attack on the Dark Church’s base was a spontaneous decision, and unexpectedly they found the Hundred Years Black Ginseng.

”Eh? What’s this?” His gaze left Golden Tiger’s excited face and was instantly attracted to a small golden box.

The small box opened slowly, revealing three extremely ordinary-looking stones to Ye Haochuan’s eyes.

”These are... Storage Energy Crystals?” Ye Haochuan’s eyes widened instantly.

Storage Energy Crystals are precious minerals that can store spiritual energy. The Golden Bell Shield that Long Keyue lent him last time had this thing. Otherwise, back then when he was only at the Innate Realm, he wouldn’t have been able to use that high-level spirit weapon.

Such an item is extremely rare, and he never expected to find it here, getting three at once.

”Are there any more of these elsewhere?” Ye Haochuan couldn’t contain his excitement and asked Horton.

”We’ve searched this entire mountain range and only found these few slightly better ones. Some fragments have been distributed among us,” Horton answered honestly.

Ye Haochuan then checked the rings of the few Dark Church experts who had been killed and indeed found more than a dozen small Storage Energy Crystals.

Although these small Storage Energy Crystals differ in value by hundreds of times compared to the larger ones, they are still rare and valuable items.

The Dark Church built a base here to search for Storage Energy Crystals, with items like the Hundred Years Black Ginseng being mere side finds.

No one imagined that all the gains would be completely seized in one of Ye Haochuan’s chance raids. Wonder if the Dark Church’s leading experts would be so furious as to vomit blood after finding out?

After striking yet another unexpected windfall, Ye Haochuan was in high spirits.

He found Yale, who was ”awaiting his fate,” and to the other’s shock, instructed: ”Now, send a message to Hellfire’s higher-ups, saying that the Holy See accidentally discovered this base and took it down.”

Earlier, Ye Haochuan and Golden Tiger had killed everyone inside, and Yale was the only person left at this base. The higher-ups of the Dark Church should believe his words.

Considering the previous incident where the Dark Church attacked the Western Holy See headquarters, plus today’s event adding more fuel to the fire, it would be near impossible for these two major Western forces to avoid direct conflict.

After concluding this eventful and rewarding episode, Ye Haochuan then flew towards Huaxia with Golden Tiger and Horton.

Two hours later, Ye Haochuan and his group successfully returned to the Imperial Capital. After settling Horton at the Long Alliance base, Ye Haochuan immediately wanted to see Lin Qingxuan.

However, he was not able to as expected, only meeting Lin Qingxuan’s sister, Lin Zixuan.

”I’m sorry, Qingxuan was taken back to Haishan by my parents.” Lin Zixuan said, her face showing a hint of guilt.

Ye Haochuan’s face turned grim upon hearing this, and he said coldly, ”So, your parents plan to go back on their word?”

”I don’t know; they just said if you want to see Qingxuan, you’ll have to go to Haishan to find her.”

Damn, burn the bridge after crossing, huh? Do they really think I’m easy to bully?

Ye Haochuan’s face was deeply unpleasant.

Lin Xiaoquan and his wife promised him all sorts of things when Lin Qingxuan was in trouble. Yet, just as Lin Qingxuan was rescued, they turned their backs.

”Alright then, since you’ve invited me to your home, how can I not go?” Ye Haochuan said through gritted teeth.

Lin Zixuan’s face changed upon hearing this, and she hurriedly grasped Ye Haochuan’s arm, saying, ”Haochuan, no matter what, they are still Qingxuan’s and my parents, don’t act rashly!”

Ye Haochuan clenched his fists, responding coldly, ”Even if they are Qingxuan’s parents, can they be so selfish? Aren’t they respected figures? Is their word worth less than a fart?”

”Please calm down. I will try to persuade them,” Lin Zixuan urged, fearing Ye Haochuan’s anger, ”Give me one day, and I promise you’ll see Qingxuan, okay?”

”Fine, just one day!” Throwing down these words, Ye Haochuan turned and left.

Lin Zixuan watched Ye Haochuan’s angry silhouette and couldn’t help but sigh.

”Mother, you might have truly made a mistake this time!”

After exiting Lin Zixuan’s room, Ye Haochuan struggled to quell his anger. Yet, having promised to wait a day, he could at least wait that long.

Wandering around the Long Alliance base, finding nothing to distract himself, he decided to check on the Medicinal Cuisine Shop.

He had left in quite a hurry, and the situation at the Medicinal Cuisine Shop had not been particularly stable. He wondered how things were going after all this time.

Moments later, Ye Haochuan arrived at the entrance of Chuanmei Medicinal Cuisine Shop.

However, the bustling scenes he imagined did not appear, with only a few sparse customers sitting inside. Instead, business at the Su Family Medicinal Cuisine Shop opposite was thriving, with its threshold nearly worn down.

”What’s going on?” Ye Haochuan frowned, entering with a stern expression.
