Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 2119: Chapter 2119: Not a Couple Anymore?

The cultivation at the Immortal Transformation Mid-Stage, coupled with the boosting effect of the Taichi Domain, allowed Ye Haochuan to roam freely below the True Immortal Realm.

Moreover, these few individuals in front of him were merely cultivators specializing in a single field, not nearly as adept as the cultivators from the Immortal Realm or the Heavenly Emissary Clan.

Thus, this battle had no suspense whatsoever.

Since these people wanted to kill him for a reward, he naturally wouldn’t show any mercy.

A few minutes later, five lively lives turned into five mangled corpses.

The worst off was the leader, whose courage crumbled during the later stages of the battle as he tried to flee. However, he didn’t anticipate Ye Haochuan’s speed being far superior; before he managed to run far, Ye Haochuan caught up, striking a blow that rendered him a mere puddle of flesh.

”You really are a freak, just breaking through to the Immortal Transformation Mid-Stage and already possessing such terrifying combat prowess!” Sitting comfortably within the Heaven Escape Bead, Pan Muxiang couldn’t help but comment.

”Don’t get infatuated with me; I’m timid and easily scared!” Ye Haochuan said with a mournful look.

Pfft~

Pan Muxiang suddenly giggled, and the sound surprisingly changed from its previous coarseness, becoming rather gentle and charming.

Ye Haochuan was already accustomed to Pan Muxiang’s variability, but upon hearing this gentle voice, his heart uncontrollably skipped a few beats.

However, soon Pan Muxiang’s peerless visage surfaced in his mind, sending a shiver down his spine, and any prior hint of liking instantly dissipated.

”What’s the matter? Are you injured?” Pan Muxiang suddenly inquired with concern, noticing Ye Haochuan’s complexion turn unsightly.

”It’s nothing!” Ye Haochuan dared not accept the concern, quickly distancing himself.

Strangely, Pan Muxiang did not press further, instead lowering her head, resembling a wronged wife.

Ye Haochuan suddenly felt a pang of self-reproach.

Indeed, it wasn’t her fault for being unattractive; staying away due to her appearance severely hurt her self-esteem.

”Sorry, I didn’t mean that...” Ye Haochuan tried to explain but found himself at a loss for words.

After pondering for a while, Ye Haochuan shifted his approach, saying, ”If you’re truly unhappy with your looks, I might be able to help. I am a doctor; those... things on your face, I can remove them, but changing other structures would require surgery.

But don’t worry, you won’t experience much pain during the process, and if you have your own vision, I can try to make it as perfect as possible based on your needs...”

Pfft~

Pan Muxiang giggled again, teasingly saying, ”Is this how you always woo gals? When they’re unattractive, you persuade them to get plastic surgery. You’re indeed someone who values appearance over substance!”

”You can’t say that; substance is important, but appearance shouldn’t be overlooked either. Two people together need to feel comfortable, right? If just looking at each other is annoying, how can one focus on discovering inner qualities?”

Ye Haochuan earnestly explained, ”It’s just as the saying goes, love makes Xishi appear in the lover’s eyes; there’s no fixed standard for beauty, just being pleasing to oneself is enough.”

”You can say that, so why insist I get plastic surgery?”

”I understand it, but you’re not my lover, and I can’t find any trace of Xishi’s glamour in you. Besides, you truly exceed my tolerance range!”

Ye Haochuan said with a bitter expression, ”If you had enough substance, I could probably accept it, but in you, all I see is domineering and quirkiness, without any hint of virtue...”

”Seems like you don’t quite know me well. How about we engage in some in-depth interaction to let you discover my virtues?” Pan Muxiang suddenly appeared quite expectant.

Ye Haochuan took a gulp and swiftly declined, ”I have a wife and kids back home, engaging in deep interactions outside isn’t appropriate...”

If Xiao Haimei and the other women heard this, they’d probably directly accuse Ye Haochuan of being phony; when he interacted with them, he never showed such insight!

”Arguing so much, at the end of the day, you’re a guy who values appearance above all.” Pan Muxiang sneered lightly.

Ye Haochuan didn’t explain, only saying inwardly.

It’s not easy being a novel protagonist; if I don’t gather pretty top-tier dames, won’t other novel peers laugh their heads off?

Yet for some reason, after this conversation, Ye Haochuan found himself not disliking Pan Muxiang as much as before.

Their conversation abruptly ended, the Heaven Escape Bead still speeding along, flying past countless landscapes in the blink of an eye.

After an unknown duration of silence, Pan Muxiang suddenly said, ”From now on, we’re not a couple. Remember, it’s not that you find me undesirable; it’s me abandoning you!”

Not a couple now? Were they ever?

Ye Haochuan scoffed inwardly but couldn’t muster a smile, feeling like something was abruptly missing within him.

How could this be; could I really be falling for her?

Just thinking that, Ye Haochuan promptly discarded the thought, self-consoling, ”Impossible, we’ve never even had a proper conversation; how could I like her?”

Pfft~

Pan Muxiang giggled yet again.

This giggle left Ye Haochuan completely dazed, instinctively asking, ”What’s this...”

”Seeing your guilty and conflicted expression is very satisfying, haha!” Pan Muxiang laughed.

Gah, this woman truly is unpredictable, impossible to grasp!

Ye Haochuan grimaced, utterly at a loss for a response.

For the first time, the tables had turned where a woman toyed with him, leaving him defenseless.

”I’ve suddenly lost interest in going to Heart of the Earth Island; let’s stop!” Pan Muxiang abruptly switched her tone.

Ye Haochuan didn’t think twice, controlling the Heaven Escape Bead to halt.

Pan Muxiang summoned wings, flying away without a backward glance.

Ye Haochuan didn’t know what he was thinking, didn’t follow, and suddenly lost interest in continuing his journey, noticing a town nearby, decided to land there.

The earlier ambush by five people made him realize his current plight, where all cultivators in Tianxi World were hunting him, so he certainly couldn’t foolishly let them discover him.

Luckily, Yinfeng’s ability allowed him to alter his appearance, which at this moment was extremely handy.

He changed to a White Person’s face, wandering casually around the town, and upon reaching the town center, discovered it was bustling, crowded.

Upon inquiry, he found out that an annual trade festival was being held here, where many cultivators brought out treasures they didn’t use, hoping to trade for something useful.

Because this trade fair had no entry barriers, most attendees were low-level cultivators; Ye Haochuan didn’t harbor much hope of finding anything valuable, casually roaming around.

But soon, his gaze fixed on a remote stall.

”I didn’t expect to find this thing in such a place...”
