Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1212: Chapter 1212: Something Happened

It was indeed Ye Luo, and at this moment, Ye Luo had already refined the Dragon Qi. The Dragon Qi he obtained from the Dragon Soul Puppet was immensely abundant, and even though he and Ao Long each took half of the Dragon Qi, it still greatly strengthened the Divine Dragon Bloodline in Ye Luo’s body.

At least, it wasn’t as negligible as before!

”Master!”

The Guardian looked at Ye Luo, puzzled as to why Ye Luo stopped him.

”Guardian Zhang Lai, the Hall Master of the Dragon Pavilion is actually a pitiful person, controlled by the Corpse King Palace using a Secret Technique. His actions were not from his heart, so I think we should spare him!”

As Ye Luo spoke, he already walked toward the Hall Master of the Dragon Pavilion, and with a casual wave of his hand, a golden light directly fused into the body of the Hall Master.

With abundant Dragon Qi, Ye Luo no longer needed to use Pupil Skill to combat the Death Qi!

As the Dragon Qi entered the body of the Hall Master, the previously lifeless Hall Master awoke.

But before he could open his eyes, two streams of tears flowed down.

For these ten years, he had been controlled by the Grand Elder of the Corpse King Palace, but his soul had not been extinguished; thus, as a bystander, he witnessed everything...

”I, I am guilty, Master. Please grant me death, for this body of mine is already laden with sins!”

The Hall Master of the Dragon Pavilion lay on the ground, driven not only by the physical injuries but also by the despair and remorse in his heart!

The Hall Master clearly remembered his several personal disciples, all killed by his own hand for defying the Grand Elder’s orders. The Hall Master vividly remembered leading the men in black robes to continuously assassinate the Elders and countless disciples of the Dragon Pavilion...

Thus, he despaired. Even now that he had regained control of his body, the Hall Master harbored only a desire for death as atonement!

”Stand up, get up right now!”

Suddenly, Ye Luo’s thunderous voice rang out.

At that moment, everyone in the Dragon Pavilion was silent, for when they looked at the Hall Master, their hearts were greatly conflicted. Forgive the Hall Master? Yet everything that happened in the Dragon Pavilion was indeed because of him!

Blame all the sins solely on the Hall Master?

But they also knew in their hearts that the Hall Master was an innocent and a victim as well!

Hearing Ye Luo’s command, the Hall Master of the Dragon Pavilion shakily stood up.

However, as soon as he stood up, Ye Luo suddenly slapped him across the face!

”Slap!”

The loud sound of a slap rang out!

People of the Dragon Pavilion looked at Ye Luo puzzled, unsure of his intentions, but regardless of what Ye Luo intended, they could not say a word.

Ye Luo’s eyes narrowed slightly as he glared at the Hall Master, his voice filled with anger, ”Is that all the resolve you have? You want to die, is that it? Dying is easy, jumping down ends it all!”

”But while your death may settle everything, what about them, who will seek revenge for them? You want to die, fine, there will be plenty of chances for you to die later, but not by my hand. You will die in battle, die fighting the Corpse King Palace!”

”Feeling guilty? You should,” Ye Luo said sharply. ”No matter how you look at it, those deeds were committed by your own body. But what’s the use of feeling guilty? All of this is your fault. You weren’t strong enough, which is why the people from the Corpse King Palace were able to control you. If you had been powerful enough, how could the Corpse King Palace have ever controlled you!”

”I want you dead, but not now; I want you to die in the future, in battle! To die like a true Dragon Pavilion warrior! As for now, you need to focus on your cultivation. Since the Corpse King Palace has already surfaced, they surely won’t just stop here. There will be plenty of time for you to die later!”

Ye Luo’s loud reprimand instantly awakened the Hall Master of the Dragon Pavilion.

”Master, your servant recognizes his wrongdoing!”

The Hall Master of the Dragon Pavilion reverently knelt beside Ye Luo.

Ye Luo nodded and casually took out an elixir.

”Alright, take this elixir and go rest well. You’ve just awoken, and fully controlling your own body may take some time. Rest well.”

”Yes, Master!”

...

”Clean up this place well. The Dragon Pavilion has gone through hardships but it hasn’t collapsed yet. You all deal with the internal affairs first. I’m worried the Corpse King Palace is planning something big, so I need to get back to the mundane world quickly.”

Ye Luo turned and spoke to Long Xiaotian and the Guardian Elder.

Since Ye Luo’s purpose for this visit had been achieved and he had also witnessed the might of the Corpse King Palace, his unease grew stronger, suggesting that some major event was imminent. However, he had no clue what it might be, so Ye Luo planned to return quickly.

”Yes, Master, but the Corpse King Palace might still target you. Since they have reappeared, we at the Dragon Pavilion must also make our move. Please forgive us for not being able to leave with you immediately, Master. However, we will select elite disciples to go out with you and ensure your safety.”

Long Xiaotian said to Ye Luo, knowing well that Dragon Pavilion had suffered immensely—physically, mentally, and even losing Dragon Soul Puppets. They needed to deal with it carefully.

Ye Luo nodded, understanding that going out this time might lead to an all-out war with the Corpse King Palace, and was fully aware that, due to his ability to counter Death Qi, he would definitely be a primary target for the Corpse King Palace.

Having the protection of Dragon Pavilion disciples certainly made things much better.

However, looking at the Guard Squad composed entirely of Elders sent by Dragon Pavilion, Ye Luo still had doubts, seeing something odd about these Elders’ identities. Among the group, all were Elders, yet the strongest had reached the Controlling Qi Realm!

And the weakest was in the Hua Yuan Realm?

Such inconsistent power levels indeed left Ye Luo puzzled. But now was not the time to delve into these complexities. He glanced at their capabilities and then dismissed the matter from his mind.

Because right now, Ye Luo’s only concern was that the Corpse King Palace might eventually take drastic actions. If they decided to start a war in the mundane world, it would undoubtedly be a great calamity!

But indeed, Ye Luo was very aware that the Corpse King Palace was highly likely to take action in the mundane world.

After all, the Huilian Supermarket situation was the best example, and Shi Yu was the best proof!

Soon, Ye Luo returned to the mundane world with the people from the Dragon Pavilion. However, no sooner had he left the boundaries of the Dragon Pavilion than his mobile phone started buzzing incessantly.

It was the alert sound of text messages!

Ye Luo paused, a sudden shock running through his mind: Something had happened!
