Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 2253: Chapter 2253: The Formidable Black Wok

Clang~

The power of the Golden Dragon Shadowblade was unparalleled, as if it wanted to cleave the earth in two.

Yet, this extraordinary strike suddenly shattered into pieces after colliding with a black object.

Pfft~

Gu Dewei was already severely wounded, maintaining his composure with great difficulty. The Golden Dragon Shadowblade, seemingly casual, was actually his strongest strike, expending all his energy.

Now that his strongest strike was broken, he suffered serious backlash, unable to suppress his injuries any longer, and spewed a mouthful of blood. His aura diminished to the lowest point.

However, he did not tend to his injuries. Instead, he stared blankly at the black object, incredulously saying, ”What... what is this thing? How could it so easily block my strongest strike?”

Not only him, but even Ye Haochuan beside him seemed to be dreaming.

Just now, he was flung back, knowing Le Yao was in danger. He thought of finding a defensive magical treasure to help her ward off the attack for a while. Although it seemed impossible to block it, he couldn’t bear to watch Le Yao die without doing anything.

But he seriously lacked defensive magical treasures himself and couldn’t find anything good in a short time.

In desperation, he randomly threw something out. Only after throwing it did Ye Haochuan realize that it was actually the ancestral black pot of Xue Tie.

At the time, his heart sank to the bottom.

This iron pot was just made of a thin layer of iron skin; how could it block Gu Dewei’s powerful strike?

Just as he was regretting it in his heart, the Golden Dragon Shadowblade fell on the bottom of the pot, and then... shattered...

”Amazing!”

Ye Haochuan never dreamed that this seemingly fragile black pot could actually block the Golden Dragon Shadowblade without a scratch, only rubbing off a bit of black ash.

After swallowing hard, Ye Haochuan hurriedly walked over to lift the pot and check Le Yao’s condition.

Le Yao’s eyes were tightly closed, her beautiful eyelashes trembling slightly like a terrified little rabbit.

”Are you okay?” Ye Haochuan asked anxiously.

Le Yao opened her eyes blankly, saw Ye Haochuan’s face, and tears welled up in her eyes. She immediately hugged Ye Haochuan’s arm and cried, ”I’m sorry, I’m sorry, it’s all because of me that you ended up in the Hall of King Yama with me...”

In the moment she closed her eyes, countless feelings of guilt towards Ye Haochuan surged in her heart, yet she was distressed by not being able to apologize in person.

Fortunately, heaven had eyes, allowing her to encounter Ye Haochuan at the entrance of the Hall of King Yama. She didn’t dare miss the chance to express herself, so...

Ye Haochuan’s mouth twitched, and he joked strangely, ”If you want to go to the Hall of King Yama, let’s wait a thousand years or so, then I’ll go with you. For now, we need to live well!”

”Live well, but we already...”

Le Yao initially wanted to say ”we’re already dead,” but soon noticed something strange. The surroundings were clearly still within the Medicine King Secret Treasure.

Moreover, the heat from Ye Haochuan’s cheek that was pressing against hers was tangible, not like the state of a soul body.

”I’m not dead? How is this possible?” Le Yao stood up incredulously and looked around.

”It was this pot that saved you!” Ye Haochuan said triumphantly, pointing at the big black pot.

Le Yao stared at the black pot for a long time but couldn’t see anything special about it. However, she eventually believed Ye Haochuan’s words and solemnly bowed to the pot.

”Where is that old guy Gu Dewei?” Le Yao suddenly asked suspiciously.

Only then did Ye Haochuan realize something and looked around, but there was no sign of Gu Dewei.

”That old guy sure runs fast!” Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but mutter.

Most of his attention was focused on Le Yao earlier, and he didn’t notice when Gu Dewei ran away.

”It seems that old guy is at the end of his strength, planning to use a full force strike to eliminate us but didn’t expect a mishap. Now, without the strength to resist, he could only flee quietly!” Le Yao analyzed.

Ye Haochuan nodded, agreeing that Le Yao was likely right.

Although they hadn’t killed Gu Dewei, Ye Haochuan was still relieved that they managed to survive safely.

He didn’t hurry to pursue him but sat cross-legged on the spot to start tending to his injuries.

In the previous battle, he was seriously injured. Without proper healing, there might be lingering aftereffects.

With the help of the pills, the two quickly stabilized their injuries.

”Let’s go. Let’s first obtain the Medicine King’s inheritance, and then we’ll figure out how to deal with Gu Dewei once we leave!” Ye Haochuan suggested.

Le Yao immediately nodded in agreement.

In their view, Gu Dewei was severely injured this time and certainly didn’t dare to venture further into the Medicine King Secret Treasure, likely leaving in disgrace.

At that moment, in another passageway, Gu Dewei clutched his chest, gasping for air. Looking at his pale face, he seemed on the brink of death.

Suddenly, he swallowed a pill, and his chaotic aura calmed a bit.

”Damn couple, with so many tricks. Once I obtain the Medicine King’s treasure and restore my full power, I’ll make you pay for killing my son!” Gu Dewei’s eyes were full of determination.

Though the pill was good, it could only stabilize the injury. Full recovery would take a long time. If he encountered Ye Haochuan again during this period, he would likely meet a grim fate.

However, he wasn’t in despair because he firmly believed that the Medicine King, as a master of medicine, would leave behind some miraculous pills. As long as he could find the secret treasury, he could instantly restore his powers, and perhaps even his severed hand could be renewed instantaneously.

Then, no matter how strong Ye Haochuan was, he wouldn’t last more than a few seconds against him in peak condition.

On the other side, just as Ye Haochuan and Le Yao had fully recovered, a stumbling figure suddenly rushed over, almost bumping into Ye Haochuan.

Focusing his gaze, Ye Haochuan saw that it was no one other than Xu He.

”How did it go? Did you kill Gu Dewei?” Xu He urgently asked as soon as he saw Ye Haochuan and Le Yao.

When Gu Dewei appeared earlier, he’d heard Ye Haochuan’s transmission telling him to flee as far as possible.

He initially felt burdened, but after Ye Haochuan said he had another plan, he had no choice but to escape, hiding in another small passageway.

Feeling it safe now, he hurriedly ran back, overjoyed to see Ye Haochuan and Le Yao alive.

Ye Haochuan briefly recounted the situation, and Xu He gasped in relief.

To survive under Immortal Transformation cultivation in front of a True Immortal late-stage master and even make that master flee was unprecedented and unparalleled.

Just as they rejoiced, the small passageway suddenly began to shake intensely, almost toppling them over.

Xu He thought for a moment, then exclaimed in shock, ”No, someone broke through the second barrier’s shield; all the small passageways at the first barrier will soon close!”
