Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 2369: Chapter 2370: Offspring of the Patrol Envoy

Originally, everyone wanted to make things difficult for him, but upon hearing his words, or rather his request, they were all dumbfounded.

After a brief silence, everyone burst into laughter.

”No way, what’s wrong with this kid’s nerve? Father initially wanted to give him a task, and he wants to go out?”

”I see this kid is so rustic, he’s definitely not the sharpest tool in the shed. Doing something this foolish is understandable!”

Instantly, the young men beside the Patrol Envoy started discussing.

This also confirmed Ye Luo’s earlier suspicion that these guys are offspring of the Patrol Envoy.

But, the young woman was curiously observing Ye Luo.

Obviously, this group of people could be considered the nobility of this space. Though uninterested in cultivation, they’ve lived comfortably for generations, especially these youths who were born in this space and have never seen the outside world, feeling that this way of life is just fine.

”Do you really want to go outside and guard the Gold Silk Forest? If you leave, even I won’t be able to bring you back!” the Patrol Envoy suddenly said.

This caught Ye Luo by surprise. Isn’t he the Patrol Envoy? This should be his decision!

However, the Patrol Envoy wouldn’t lie to him.

No matter what, Ye Luo was determined to leave. Firstly, the Gold Silk Forest is his ultimate goal. Getting closer might mean opportunity, and he doesn’t want to wait for the end here. At least outside, he can undergo body refinement.

”Patrol Envoy, I request to become a Guard of the Gold Silk Forest!” Ye Luo reiterated determinately.

”Alright, since you have a request, I naturally won’t refuse, this spares me the trouble of finding a Guard!” the Patrol Envoy immediately agreed.

Ye Luo also realized that this Guard position is likely not a good one, and it should be that every so often, each Patrol Envoy has to select a certain number of Guards to protect the Gold Silk Forest.

However, it’s surprising to Ye Luo. It seems there shouldn’t be few Guards outside, so the ones Ye Luo previously saw were only a hundred or so. Could it be he hasn’t seen all the Guards?

Even so, he felt the Patrol Envoy’s offspring looked at him as if he was a fool, suggesting that being a Guard isn’t simple, maybe it’s dangerous.

”Father, I want to experience being a Guard too!”

Suddenly, the young woman stood up and said respectfully.

Ye Luo glanced at her unintentionally, this youthful woman was full of heroism, lacking feminine grace but having masculine vigor.

Compared to those young men, she was more to Ye Luo’s liking.

”If you look at me randomly again, I’ll gouge your eyes out!”

Upon noticing Ye Luo observing her, the young woman immediately shouted angrily.

Ye Luo shook his head helplessly, she was truly a tomboy! He usually stayed far away from such women.

”Nonsense!” Immediately, the Patrol Envoy stood up, ”Is Guard something anyone can just be!? Once you become a Guard, I won’t be able to protect you anymore, I’ve told you many times, why won’t you listen!”

Hearing this, Ye Luo was even more certain that being a Guard definitely had its issues.

”Father, the more dangerous the place, the more it can provide trial and hardship. I’ve been stuck here without progress for a long time!”

The Patrol Envoy sighed, his gaze softened, ”Don’t worry, next time I distribute resources, I’ll give you more, if you like cultivation, I’ll satisfy you!”

But the young woman didn’t seem satisfied after listening, just as she was about to speak, the Patrol Envoy interrupted her.

”No need to say more, I’m definitely not agreeing to this!”

After speaking, he tossed a blood-red token to Ye Luo.

”Take this with you, tomorrow morning, I will activate the Transmission Array for you so you can leave, but once you leave, you can only return here once in three months; during these three months, whatever happens, you must stand guard in the Gold Silk Forest. Do you understand?”

Ye Luo took the token and nodded slowly. He could feel that this token was not simple—it seemed to be crafted by those with great magical power, maybe by the Law Enforcers.

Of course, the purpose of this token was merely to pass through the Transmission Array, and nothing more.

Afterward, Ye Luo had no intention to linger here. After all, the life here was something he disdained.

Since Ye Luo became a Guard, the Patrol Envoy didn’t overly trouble him, and those young men didn’t spare him a glance, seemingly apprehensive or disdainful of being Guard.

Ye Luo returned to the elder’s side. Upon seeing the blood-red token in Ye Luo’s hand, his expression became complicated.

Actually, not only him, surrounding Ye Luo were many cultivators, all regarding him with such looks.

”You’ve finally decided to take this step!” he said with a complex expression.

Ye Luo didn’t feel much, ”Miracles are more likely to occur in adversity; staying here long-term only makes it easier to fall into decay!”

Ye Luo’s words had an underlying meaning, for this place contained Death Qi, making it nearly impossible for these cultivators to improve, and rather their level could quickly decline.

The middle-aged man’s expression became more complicated, ”I didn’t expect you to realize it so quickly; however, when you leave, the consequences are just the same. Once you leave, you’ll understand!”

The night passed quickly, and the middle-aged man fell into a drowsy state, not saying much to him. By dawn, as Ye Luo approached the Transmission Array to head to Gold Silk Forest, the middle-aged man suddenly stopped him.

”Young man, I’ll be waiting for your return!”

Ye Luo was a bit stunned; he could sense this middle-aged man seemed to have made some sort of decision, but he didn’t pay much attention. After all, it was his business, unrelated to Ye Luo.

With the blood-red token in hand, he arrived at the Transmission Array.

At that moment, the Patrol Envoy had already arrived at the Transmission Array, his presence was extraordinary; it was clear his realm hadn’t deteriorated, likely compensated with cultivation resources.

Meaning, if he regressed, he just replenished it with cultivation resources.

As the Patrol Envoy, obtaining cultivation resources shouldn’t be difficult.

”Good, you truly didn’t back down; when you return, I’ll give you some compensation!” the Patrol Envoy said contentedly.

Ye Luo simply didn’t listen to him; what could he possibly offer when Ye Luo was already wealthier than him.
