Medical and Martial God

The smile on Ye Xiu’s face gradually faded, and his gaze turned sharp.

Bruce and Galava, those two idiotic dogs, had been foolishly and repeatedly testing the limits on the brink of death. If it weren’t for the fact that they were still somewhat capable and useful, Ye Xiu would have crushed them long ago.

”Who do you two think is smarter, you or Huang Quan?” Ye Xiu asked.

At the mention of Huang Quan’s name, both Bruce and Galava became solemn.

Bruce said humbly, ”How could I possibly compare myself to Huang Quan?”

Galava added self-deprecatingly, ”My meager cleverness can’t hold a candle to Huang Quan’s vast wisdom.”

They’re quite self-aware!

Ye Xiu snorted coldly. ”In that case, if I had really defected to Hell’s Gate, why didn’t Huang Quan come to kill me? With so many Martial Artists on Biluo Island, why hasn’t a single one come to denounce me?”

Bruce and Galava suddenly felt as if Ye Xiu had delivered a swift kick to their intelligence.

He’s right! Huang Quan and all the Martial Artists on Biluo Island must have seen Meng Yinwan’s post on the forum. If no one else came looking for Ye Xiu and only we did, what does that mean? It means no one believes Ye Xiu defected to Hell’s Gate!

At that moment, Bruce and Galava calmed down and recalled the contents of Meng Yinwan’s post.

What the hell?! It was a scheme to sow discord?

They wished they could dig a hole in the ground with their toes and crawl into it.

How embarrassing! Out of more than five million Martial Artists on the island, were we really the two stupidest?

”You two,” Ye Xiu sneered mockingly, ”I suggest you find time to get a brain CT scan. There’s definitely something wrong with your heads.”

Bruce: ”...”

Galava: ”...”

They were furious but too ashamed to retort, knowing they were in the wrong.

”Brother Ye,” Yan Long called out excitedly as he emerged from the villa. Seeing Bruce and Galava, he paused and asked, ”What are you two doing here?”

Seeing Yan Long also confused Bruce and Galava, especially since Huang Quan had ordered them to team up with him. They were supposed to be teammates. However, they were too preoccupied to question why Yan Long was here.

Bruce asked in surprise, ”Yan Long, your skin... how did it return to its normal color?”

Previously, Yan Long had been so severely poisoned that his entire skin was dark green, typical of a green giant.

”Haha...” At the mention of this, Yan Long laughed heartily. ”Brother Ye has already cured my poison.”

What?

Bruce and Galava looked at Ye Xiu in shock.

Bruce asked, ”Ye Xiu, you... you can neutralize the Poison of Spiritual Energy?”

”Just look at how ignorant you are,” Ye Xiu said, a playful smile spreading across his face as he teased, ”Did you not know that I was the one who neutralized the poison in all the Spiritual Energy Wells around the world? If it weren’t for me, all of humanity would have already been corrupted by the Poisonous Spiritual Energy spewed from those wells and started mutating.”

”Ah, this...”

The expressions on Bruce and Galava’s faces were priceless. They, too, were afflicted with the Poison of Spiritual Energy.

What a mess! The very person they had been racking their brains and going to great lengths to deal with was the only one in the world who could save their lives!

”Ye Xiu, no, Divine Doctor Ye,” Bruce began, a sheepish grin on his face as he bowed and scraped, ”what if I told you I’ve just been joking with you this whole time? Would you believe me?”

”Yes, yes! We were just joking with you, hehe, hehehe...” Galava added, his laugh uglier than a sob, but his attitude was utterly fawning.

Their current subservient attitude was a stark contrast to their earlier aggressive and hostile stance, where they had been hell-bent on killing Ye Xiu.

Ye Xiu ignored them and instead turned to Yan Long. ”Go and notify everyone afflicted with the Poison of Spiritual Energy to come here for detoxification. Also, I’ll give each of them a Life Totem.”

”You got it!” Yan Long immediately scurried off to gather everyone.

Bruce and Galava grew anxious. ”What about us?”

”That depends on your future performance,” Ye Xiu said coldly. ”Oh, by the way, Tu La wasn’t lying about one thing. I did indeed take 30,000 Life Totems from Kristina.”

With that, he turned and went back into the villa, leaving Bruce and Galava standing there, completely dumbstruck.

Just because they had been pointlessly antagonizing him, Ye Xiu was now going to detoxify everyone except them. And he wasn’t giving them any Life Totems either.

”What do we do?” Galava asked.

”We have to perform well, obviously!” Bruce said, exasperated.

”And how do we do that?” Galava asked.

Bruce thought for a moment. ”From now on, we are the gatekeepers of the Clearhome Villa District. We’ll guard the gate for Ye Xiu.”

When Yan Long brought the Loose Cultivators who had been poisoned by the Poisonous Spiritual Energy, they saw Bruce and Galava at the entrance of the Clearhome Villa District. The two of them stood on either side of the gate, ramrod straight like a pair of sentinels.

”What are those two up to now?” someone asked in confusion.

”Maybe they have hemorrhoids and can’t sit down, so they have to stand,” Yan Long quipped.

Bruce: ”...”

Galava: ”...”

「One day later」

Hundreds of thousands of members of the Restorer Alliance, who had been lying in wait across the globe, began arriving in Tamwood City in droves.

When they reached the harbor, they saw a young man already waiting for them.

”Everyone, I was sent by Big Sister Meng Yinwan to greet you all,” Ye Liuyun said with a smile. ”Please board the ships. All these vessels in the harbor are ours.”

The hundreds of thousands of Restorers were astonished by the sight of the fleet docked at the harbor. There was a seemingly endless expanse of ships, including large cruise liners, yachts, and even warships. They were silently in awe of Meng Yinwan’s capabilities. How had she managed to procure so many ships, including military vessels, in such a short amount of time?

Impressive, truly impressive!

Once everyone was on board, the fleet set sail.

Ye Liuyun rode on the same ship as the acting leaders of the various organizations within the Restorer Alliance.

One of them asked, ”How long will it take to get from Tamwood City to Phoenix Perch Island?”

”About a day!” Ye Liuyun answered patiently. ”However, our first stop isn’t Phoenix Perch Island.”

The acting leaders were taken aback.

”Then where are we going first?” one asked.

”Sigh!” Ye Liuyun sighed, getting into character. ”The three Judicator Families and the Eternal Kingdom have launched a surprise attack on Phoenix Perch Island. The island is now in complete chaos, and this is bound to become a long, drawn-out war.”

”Our Restorer Alliance and Hell’s Gate are in dire need of food, medicine, and other supplies. Therefore, our mission is to launch a raid on the lower-class islands of the Eternal Islands, seize all necessary resources, and transport them to Phoenix Perch Island.”

His explanation was perfectly logical. The acting leaders all understood that their enemies were the three Judicator Families, the Eternal Kingdom, and the more than five million Martial Artists on Biluo Island. Facing such a powerful and numerous enemy, a war of attrition was inevitable, making an ample supply of food and medicine essential.

However, one of them voiced a doubt. ”If this is such a major development, why didn’t we receive any news about it?”

Ye Liuyun’s confidence suddenly wavered.

”Well, we can just call and confirm, can’t we?” another acting leader suggested.

With that, he took out his phone and dialed Meng Yinwan.
