The Divine Urban Physician

”Moreover, the Dao of this Blood Dragon is quite peculiar. A divine dragon has actually chosen the path of slaughter. It is as though it has absorbed endless blood energy and killing intent to be reborn...”

”If that Blood Dragon continues down this path, I will have to return to the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Palace. If it rises to become a king there and commands the Nine Heavens Dragon Clan... Let us not discuss it. It should not be possible.”

”How could an outsider command the Nine Heavens Dragon Clan?”

Upon hearing these words, the man furrowed his brows in concern. Even a mysterious entity like the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Palace was facing trouble. Could it be that the doomsday of the Heavenly Dao Palace had truly arrived?

Fortunately, the divine dragon that had appeared unexpectedly was unrelated to that young man. Otherwise, if the two of them were to join forces... He dared not contemplate that scenario.

”I will take care of this matter.”

”As long as we bring the Eternal Sacred King back, everything will become clear.”

At this moment, Ye Chen had already risen to his feet with a smile adorning his face. For an ordinary individual, it was no easy feat to advance to the Star Aperture realm, but for Ye Chen? Though he had exerted effort to achieve a perfect breakthrough, he had ultimately succeeded.

He was now a first-level Star Aperture realm expert, and this level was likely sufficient for him to contend against sixth-level Sealed Gate realm experts, or perhaps higher.

Ye Chen stretched his body, feeling the surging power coursing through him. Although breaking through to the Star Aperture realm did not elevate his strength to its utmost limit, he had made advancements in terms of spiritual energy, strength, recovery ability, and other aspects. Overall, his power had increased several times.

One should not underestimate this increase in strength. It is worth noting that Ye Chen already possessed the combat strength of a Sealed Gate realm expert prior to his breakthrough.

Just as Ye Chen prepared to consolidate his foundation, his expression suddenly shifted, and he turned to look in a particular direction.

Two figures entered his line of sight. The two appeared visibly startled, clearly not expecting to encounter anyone here.

These two individuals were, of course, Li Shen and Chen Meixiang.

Ye Chen’s eyes flickered. Despite Li Shen’s flamboyant attire, Ye Chen could sense that this individual was not an ordinary expert.

In fact, his strength was even greater than his realm suggested.

Chen Meixiang, standing beside him, was equally impressive. These two individuals evidently possessed extraordinary backgrounds.

Meanwhile, Li Shen and Chen Meixiang maintained a wary gaze toward Ye Chen at first. However, upon noticing Ye Chen’s cultivation level, they exchanged peculiar looks.

Ye Chen’s gaze briefly swept past Li Shen and lingered on Chen Meixiang for a moment.

Chen Meixiang had fair skin and donned a pink dress. Her eyes resembled autumn waters, and her figure was alluring. Her facial features were exquisite. Although she was not as stunning as top beauties such as Ji Siqing, Wei Ying, and Xia Ruoxue, she could still be considered a heavenly beauty.

Moreover, a unique natural fragrance emanated from her. While it did not rival Zining’s soul fragrance, it was still captivating and had a seductive quality. Ye Chen, being a normal man, found it natural to glance at her a few more times.

However, Ye Chen quickly averted his gaze.

Though these two were formidable, Ye Chen felt no need to pay them undue attention with his current strength.

As for their presence here at this moment, they were undoubtedly here for the ruins. However, Ye Chen remained unconcerned. After all, once they entered the ruins, they would naturally vie for it based on their own abilities. There was no need for confrontation here.

Seeing Ye Chen’s indifference towards them, a cold glimmer flashed across Li Shen’s eyes. He remarked, ”Junior Sister Chen, I thought there was something remarkable about him, but it seems that this youth’s aura is still somewhat unstable.”

”He has just advanced to the Star Aperture realm, and Senior Brother Zhao actually made us come here for someone of this caliber. Sigh, we are truly unfortunate.”

Chen Meixiang cast an annoyed glance at Ye Chen and said, ”Let’s go. Since we have confirmed it, there is no need to waste more time on this individual.”

Ye Chen’s expression remained indifferent. He had no intention of engaging with them.

However, just as Li Shen was about to turn and leave, his gaze fell upon something. He pivoted and walked directly toward Little Gold’s giant egg.

”Eh, Junior Sister, this Demonic Beast Egg appears somewhat unusual...”

”Could it be that the phenomenon we witnessed earlier did not originate from this youth, but from this giant egg?”

”In that case, let us take it back.”

However, before he could approach the giant egg, Ye Chen blocked his path.

Before Little Gold hatched, he would protect it at all costs.

”Is this egg yours?” Li Shen inquired, his brow furrowing.

”He is resting. Do not disturb him,” Ye Chen replied firmly.

Chen Meixiang stepped forward, staring intently at the giant egg. She closed her eyes as if trying to sense something.

After a prolonged moment, she opened her eyes, a look of pleasant surprise on her face. ”Senior Brother, I wish to take this giant egg with me. I want it to be my mount.”

She had evidently recognized that the giant egg was extraordinary.

Li Shen’s expression darkened. A flash of killing intent crossed his eyes as he smiled and said, ”It is my honor to assist Junior Sister Chen in this matter. Do not worry. From now on, this giant egg will belong to you, Junior Sister.”

When Ye Chen observed that the two had designs on Goldie, his expression grew cold. He issued an ultimatum. ”Leave now, or I will not hesitate to take action.”

Li Shen and Chen Meixiang glanced at each other in surprise. It was one thing for this Star Aperture realm expert to display no fear before them, but he dared to speak to them in such a manner?

”I am not someone you can offend. Do you understand?” Ye Chen said coldly as the two stared at him, their mouths agape.

Absolute silence filled the surroundings.

Li Shen and Chen Meixiang appeared frozen as they stared at Ye Chen, incredulity etched on their faces.

After a moment, laughter erupted in the maple forest as Li Shen and Chen Meixiang burst into laughter.

Li Shen laughed maniacally, pointing at Ye Chen’s nose as he spoke to Chen Meixiang, ”What did he say? Junior Sister Chen, are my ears deceiving me? He claims to be an existence we cannot afford to offend?”

”Is a Star Aperture realm cultivator in the Lingwu Continent truly that formidable? He has just broken through as well! An individual of this caliber is not even worthy of carrying my shoes in the Divine Kingdom!”

”Do the savages of the Lingwu Continent all possess such amusing qualities?”

”A savage from the Lingwu Continent?”

Ye Chen felt a twinge of discomfort upon hearing this.

The Divine Kingdom was also part of the Lingwu Continent.

However, in the eyes of the citizens of the Divine Kingdom, were the cultivators of the Lingwu Continent merely savages?

This individual from the Divine Kingdom certainly held himself in high regard.

Ye Chen could not be bothered to engage further with such a person.

Would it be beneficial to say more?

They held him in contempt and would always do so...

Until they were ultimately trampled beneath his feet!

Li Shen finally managed to suppress his laughter. He regarded Ye Chen with a calm demeanor, toying with the sword at his waist. He spoke nonchalantly, ”My Shen Xuan Sect has matters to attend to here. However, just now, your eyes lingered on my junior sister, and your words were disrespectful. We cannot overlook this. Leave your eyes and tongue behind as an apology.”
