Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 584: Chapter 584 Leaving the Temple_1

”To be able to injure you with one move, this person’s strength is absolutely extraordinary. Could it be a master sent by the Huaxia government?” Abe Kozo’s pupils contracted slightly, flickering with a cold light.

”Uncertain!” The long-robed man shook his head.

”No matter who it is, those two must die. Send the word, mobilize all hidden forces; we must find them at any cost. I want to cleanse this humiliation with blood,” Abe Kozo ordered coldly.

Meanwhile, within the Qingyun Sect in Huaxia, in a room.

Lu Zhengfeng and Liao Mingkui were seated here, with a pot of wine before them.

”I wonder, Brother Liao, what matter do you wish to discuss with me this evening?” Lu Zhengfeng held an ancient wine cup and gently sipped from it as he spoke.

Liao Mingkui’s eyes narrowed, a sharp glint in his gaze, saying, ”I wonder what attitude our master will take toward Lin Tianhai’s handling?”

”It seems that Brother Liao is quite concerned about the fate of our Brother Lin,” Lu Zhengfeng remarked lightly.

”How can Brother not be concerned? You and I both know that master’s most beloved and cared for disciple was Lin Tianhai. If it weren’t for his defection from our sect, Master would have handed him the position of Sect Master of Qingyun Sect long ago, and there would be no place for you as acting Sect Master.”

Liao Mingkui picked up his cup of wine, drained it in one gulp, and glanced at Lu Zhengfeng.

”Does Brother really think he still has a chance to become Sect Master?” Lu Zhengfeng’s mouth curved into a smile, revealing a hint of amusement.

”That’s not necessarily true!” A cold light flashed in Liao Mingkui’s eyes as he said, ”Master suddenly emerged from seclusion today because of that guy, and he didn’t mention any punishment for him. He just had him locked up and forbade us from dealing with his daughter. It’s clear that he intends to show some favoritism. If he doesn’t die, it might be a significant threat to your future succession as Sect Master.

”Ha...,” Lu Zhengfeng just chuckled, set down his wine cup, and looked at Liao Mingkui, saying, ”Thank you for your kind reminder, Brother.”

”However, who will be the next Sect Master of Qingyun Sect is all up to Master’s decision; we have no right to interfere. As for what becomes of Brother Lin, we only need to wait for Master’s decision. There’s no need to be too anxious.”

”Alright, it’s getting late, so I’ll return to my cultivation, Brother. Goodbye,” Lu Zhengfeng said, then got up and left the room immediately.

The wine cup in Liao Mingkui’s hand shattered instantly, his eyes flickering with chilling cold flashes, his expression slightly sinister, his body exuded an icy aura.

The next day, Ye Luo and Leng Ruobing both awoke from their cultivation. After a night of absorbing nature’s spiritual energy here, the injuries they had sustained were all healed.

Leng Ruobing, in particular, had taken advantage of the rich spiritual energy within the Amaterasu Shrine and forcefully broken through to the Half-Saint Realm, her whole body exuding an incredibly formidable authority.

”Ruo Bing, congratulations! Your strength has broken through!”

Ye Luo said with a smile on his face as he looked at Leng Ruobing.

”This bit of strength is nothing compared to yours. Your growth is what surprises me. When I first met you, you were only in the Early Stage of the Innate Realm, but now you’re already at the Innate Peak Stage,” Leng Ruobing said in her clear voice.

”Good morning to you both!”

She Ji’s figure appeared before them, still with that soul-stealing beauty and seductively hot attire, tempting the desire of men at every moment.

”You said last night that you’d let us go today. Can we leave now?” Ye Luo looked at She Ji and spoke, his eyes filled with wary alertness. Facing this creature who could potentially harm them to rejuvenate herself, he dared not let his guard down.

”Of course, my dear, after you leave, you must think of me!”

She Ji batted her eyes at Ye Luo with an alluring demeanor, her tempting posture causing the yang energy within Ye Luo’s body to surge momentarily, but luckily, he managed to suppress it in time.

Subsequently, Ye Luo and Leng Ruobing were led out of the Amaterasu Shrine by two men in long robes. It was only when they stepped outside the temple that Ye Luo realized how massive it was and, unexpectedly, it was situated on Mount Fuji.

Inside the temple, Ye Luo’s Clairvoyant Eye was completely useless; the temple was shrouded in mystery everywhere, making it impenetrable to the eye.

”She Ji, what is your relationship with that boy? How could you let him go?”

In a certain part of the palace, the somewhat ugly-faced Matsuda Yuuji appeared before She Ji and spoke.

”What business is it of yours?” She Ji asked with sensuous lips lightly pursed, casting a casual glance at Matsuda Yuuji.

”She Ji... don’t be too arrogant. Do you believe I could tell our master?”

Anger flickered through Matsuda Yuuji’s tiny eyes.

”Whatever!” She Ji said in a calm voice, appearing completely unconcerned.

”Hmph!” Matsuda Yuuji huffed coldly and turned to walk out.

”Just waste!” She Ji scoffed disdainfully.

”Be careful. That guy is not someone we can deal with just yet,” a chilly voice echoed from She Ji’s mouth.

”Don’t worry, that guy won’t be able to do anything to us yet. As soon as I recover and my strength breaks through, I’ll personally slaughter him!” A vicious look flashed across She Ji’s eyes.

”You’re finally back!”

Mingyue appeared extremely excited when she saw Ye Luo and Leng Ruobing return.

”Girl, did you actually think I had died?” Ye Luo said with a mischievous smile.

”Good people don’t live long; disasters last a thousand years. You, as a scoundrel, would naturally not die so easily,” Mingyue said with a snort.

”By the way, where were you last night? We couldn’t find you at all. If the Island Country government weren’t conducting a covert search for you in Tokyo right now, I would have thought you had been captured by them,” Mingyue couldn’t help saying.

”It’s a long story, but after all, we could consider this mission completed. However, this will surely enrage the Island Country government. They will certainly search high and low for us. Should we head back in advance now?” Leng Ruobing spoke up.

”Isn’t there still one more mission to retrieve the Dragon Head?” Ye Luo then said.

”But now we’re on the brink of exposure. It won’t be so simple to reclaim the Dragon Head at the auction, especially since this auction is hosted by the wife of the Island Country’s Prime Minister.”

”At that time, all the powerful elites of the Island Country will attend. The place will definitely be heavily guarded and filled with masters. Attempting to enter and take the Dragon Head, then withdrawing safely, will be far from easy. It could even cost us our lives. Besides, the higher-ups also said this is just an additional mission; if we can complete it, that’s great, but if not, it doesn’t matter,” Leng Ruobing said gravely.

”How can that be acceptable? To just watch the people of Island Country auctioning off our nation’s treasures for charity—it’s too shameful. Now that we’re here, we must reclaim what belongs to our country. How can we leave it for those scoundrels?” Ye Luo immediately grumbled discontentedly.
