The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 162: Farewell

Ye Chen channeled his true qi into the Requiem Staff, and realized that it was instantly absorbed.

Then, a faint aura flowed out of the Requiem Staff.

He swung the rod lightly, which produced a wave of compressed air that hit the wall and created a hole.

“Not bad. I’ll make do with this.”

Ye Chen did not have a suitable weapon at the moment, so this would come in handy.

When Ma Wei Qi saw this scene, his face turned pale.

He had known Cui Zhen for many years and had seen Cui Zhen use the Requiem Staff many times, but it had never displayed the extent of power it just did.

Furthermore, the Requiem Staff was something handed down through Cui Zhen’s family from their ancestors, yet they had been outshined by someone using it for the first time.

Ye Chen then left the hotel, leaving the rest to Ma Wei Qi. He was not worried that Ma Wei Qi would betray him.

That technique was far more terrifying than what people could imagine.

He could also sense Ma Wei Qi’s fear of death.

People who were afraid were usually smart.

All that was left was to get stronger during this month. After a month, he would pay the Jiangnan Province Martial Arts Association a visit personally! “Tang Ao? 189th on the grandmaster rankings? I want to see for myself just how strong an expert of this level is!”

Updɑted on BοXƝ0VEL.cοm It was six in the morning when Ye Chen returned to the penthouse. As soon as he opened the door, he found that Sun Yi had already woken up.

“Ye Chen, why are you up so early today?”

Sun Yi was a little surprised.

She was holding a few eggs in her hand, and was obviously preparing to make breakfast.

“1 woke up early today, so 1 went out for a walk.” Ye Chen smiled and said.

Ye Chen glanced at Xia Ruoxue’s room. When she saw that there was no movement from that side, he quietly walked over and wrapped his arms around Sun Yi’s waist.

Sun Yi quickly broke free from Ye Chen, her face flushed red.

Then, Xia Ruoxue walked out of the room in her pajamas. When she saw Ye Chen and Sun Yi, she rubbed her eyes.

“You two are really early. Are you preparing to make breakfast? Why don’t you let me do it? 1 learned a Minnan-style breakfast dish from my grandmother.”

Sun Yi lowered her head and quickly replied, “Alright… Sure!”

She did not know why, but she felt a sense of excitement.

“Alright, then wait for me for a bit.”

Xia Ruoxue then went to the bathroom to wash up.

Half an hour later, the three of them were seated at the dining table eating the breakfast that Xia Ruoxue had personally made.

The breakfast dish that Xia Ruoxue learned from her grandmother was indeed delicious.

Xia Ruoxue looked at Ye Chen smugly and said, “My cooking skill is pretty good, right?”

“Ten points.”

“Which do you prefer, Sun Yi’s breakfast or mine?” Xia Ruoxue giggled.

When Sun Yi heard this question, she looked at Ye Chen expectantly.

Ye Chen was helpless. There was no solution to this problem. He could not offend either of them. Then, just as he was about to change the topic, the doorbell rang.

“I’ll open the door.”

Ye Chen made a quick getaway to avoid the question. When he opened the door, he was surprised to see Jin Lengyan.

Ever since Jiang Yuanli’s death, the entire Jiang family had disappeared, and of the martial arts families of River City, only the Jin and Meng families remained.

“Mr. Ye, can I come in?” Jin Lengyan looked extremely flustered.

She seemed to be afraid of something.

Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed as he nodded.

Jin Lengyan carefully looked behind her and hurriedly walked in. She then closed the door and locked it.

When he saw Sun Yi and Xia Ruoxue inside, she nodded politely and said to Ye Chen, “Mr. Ye, is there a quiet place we can talk? I have something important to tell you.”

This was the first time Ye Chen had seen Jin Lengyan so nervous. Knowing that something had happened, he said without hesitation, “Follow me.”

Ye Chen brought Jin Lengyan to the secret room and closed the door.

“Tell me, what’s going on? There aren’t any surveillance cameras here.”

Jin Lengyan nodded and took off her shirt.

Ye Chen was puzzled by this scene.

Was Jin Lengyan trying to make a move on him?

However, he was proven wrong shortly after. After Jin Lengyan took off her shirt, she actually fished out a jade pendant from her bra.

When he saw the jade pendant, Ye Chen’s pupils constricted.

He could sense a considerable amount of spiritual energy seeping out of this jade pendant!

If he were to cultivate with this jade pendant, his cultivation speed would definitely be more than three times faster!

This thing would even be considered a treasure in the Kunlun Mountains!

Why would such a rare treasure appear in Huaxia? And how had Jin Lengyan ended up with it?

“Where did you get this?”

“Mr. Ye,” Jin Lengyan said in a panicked tone, “As you are well aware, the Jin family is in charge of River City’s auctions. A friend of my father rushed here from Xiangjiang City two nights ago and gave this item to the Jin family. He asked for it to be included in the auction the day after tomorrow.”

“However, yesterday, he suddenly changed his mind and said that he was going to take back the item. My father naturally agreed, but waited for an entire day and still didn’t see him!”

When my father rushed to his friend’s private villa in River City today, he discovered that his friend and his entire family had been killed in an extremely cruel manner.”

Furthermore, my father also discovered that anyone his friend came into contact with these past few days encountered strange accidents at home!

Thus, he was certain that whoever was behind this was looking for this thing!

Right now, our Jin family is incapable of protecting this thing, much less ourselves. However, we don’t want to hand it over to whoever killed my father’s friend, so the only thing my father could think about was to hand it over to Mr. Ye for safekeeping! If something happens to our Jin family, then this thing will belong to Mr. Ye.”

Ye Chen was the only person they knew who could protect this jade pendant!

“Then what about you guys?” Ye Chen’s expression was serious. “What happens if those forces find you?”

Jin Lengyan looked at the time and suppressed the nervousness in his heart.

“Mr. Ye, my father has already arranged for a private jet. Our Jin family will leave River City for the time being.”

After saying that, Jin Lengyan turned to leave. However, the moment she held the door handle, she suddenly thought of something and turned back to Ye Chen.

Then, she stood on her tiptoes and kissed Ye Chen on the cheek, catching him completely off guard.

“Mr. Ye, I’m sorry for being a little abrupt. Just treat this as a farewell kiss. Perhaps, after today, my friendship with Mr. Ye will end here.”

“It was my greatest fortune to know Mr. Ye.”

“We’ll meet again if fate allows it.”

The door closed.

When Ye Chen walked back into the living room, he realized that Jin Lengyan was long gone..
