The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 2955: Chapter 2929: What Heaven Are You?!

The powerhouses of the Heavenly God Realm can destroy mountains and rivers with a wave of their hand, and make the earth tremble with a stomp of their foot.

Individuals of such a caliber, even if suppressed in Jueye Land, can still exert formidable strength!

If Ye Ziming, Ye Zigeng, and Ye Xueqing were to recklessly charge out and fight, they could certainly kill a few, but in doing so, the Ye family’s most powerful combat strength would be prematurely drained of spiritual energy.

This would have a tremendous impact on the subsequent breakout action, so neither Ye Ziming nor Ye Zigeng nor Ye Xueqing had made a move.

The best steel must be used at the most critical moment.

As time passed by, within the Linglong Tower, many of the Ye Clan disciples had their strength completely exhausted. After one batch, another would replace them, but as the pace of the opponents’ attack quickened, staying on the defensive would only continue to put them at a disadvantage.

”Pfft!”

Finally, a disciple couldn’t hold on, and a crack appeared in the light screen. The ripples of Dao Trace seeping through the gap touched them, and the weaker disciples instantly turned pale, with a sweet metallic taste in their throats.

”It seems they are truly planning to wipe us out, we can’t wait any longer, we must leave immediately!” Ye Zigeng stood up, his face showing slight panic.

”No, Ye Sheng’s soul lamp is intact, which means the ancestral worship likely hasn’t completely failed, we must wait for them to come out!” Ye Ziming immediately rejected this proposal.

At this critical juncture, the divergence of opinions among the two of the three leaders undoubtedly compounded the stress on many of the Ye Clan disciples.

Ye Zigeng advocated for immediate retreat, finding a way to break through and preserve the last bloodline of the Ye family; even if it meant including Ye Ziming’s branch, they were merely a sideline of the Ye Clan from years past.

”While there is life, there is hope. What’s the point in desperately holding on here? Have you considered how many more are waiting for us outside since they sent so many experts in this time?

If we deplete our remaining strength here, even if Ye Sheng and the others return, can we still break out?”

Ye Zigeng’s face was full of sorrow and disappointment: ”You and I have not participated in such ancestral worships for the first time, over the years, haven’t we always narrowly escaped death every time? Do we really want to completely sever the entire Ye family?”

”We cannot leave!”

Those were Ye Ziming’s only words, his face showing struggle and difficulty, yet more of it was firmness and seriousness.

”The young ones are fighting in the ancestral land for the sake of the entire Ye Clan, and they haven’t returned yet. If we abandon them, can we live with our consciences even if we survive?”

”Do we all need to die before you’re satisfied?!” Ye Zigeng shouted furiously.

”You can choose to conserve your strength, I will personally hold off the attacks from these people outside until Ye Sheng, Ye Lingtian, and those few juniors emerge, or... the soul lamp is extinguished.”

There was no doubt that regarding this matter, Ye Ziming was extremely stubborn.

Besides, the Linglong Pagoda was under his control, so even if Ye Zigeng was anxious, it was to no avail, as he certainly couldn’t make a move against Ye Ziming at this time.

”Ah! Damn it!” Ye Zigeng slammed his palm on the nearby table, turning the entire table into dust.

”Senior Brother Zigeng, please calm down. Since Senior Brother Ziming has made his decision, we shall support him. At this point, arguing is of no use. In my opinion, even if we leave now, the chances of escape might still be minimal.

In that case, what difference does it make when or how we leave? Either way, it’s a dead end, so we might as well wait here peacefully, wait for those juniors to return, and even if they cannot bring back good news, at least we will have more companions on the road to the Netherworld.”

Ye Xueqing sighed softly.

Ultimately, she couldn’t resist the power of time. Although she had once been a fairy renowned throughout the world, now in her twilight years and facing such a desperate situation, the wrinkles on her brow seemed to deepen.

The heavy words further dampened the atmosphere inside the Linglong Pagoda, and quietly, some emotional female disciples had already started to sob, their lamentations causing hearts to grieve unbearably.

”Ye Clan remnants, surrender now. In consideration of your ancestors, we can be greatly merciful and spare the life of the youngest infant of your clan.”

Outside, a loud Daoist shout resonated, booming like thunder, causing many Ye Clan disciples to turn pale.

”Surrender? Our Ye Clan ancestors originated from the strongest ancient clan, guardians of the Samsara Master! The entire Divine Kingdom once belonged to our Ye family! The Samsara Master led us to conquer the heavens and earth, enduring countless dangers and never bowing, when have we ever needed your pity!”

Ye Ziming replied unceremoniously, his hardline attitude directly refusing the opponent’s attempt to sway them.

”Stubbornly resisting is ultimately like a moth to a flame, an ant shaking a tree!”

The speaker’s voice was full of vitality, yet the cold tone inspired no respect.

”The current trend indicates that the lingering existence of the Ye Clan is already heaven’s gift. I, who represent the Heavenly Dao Palace, can allow you to choose one youngest child to live, do not lead yourselves to ruin!”

”Heaven, what kind of ’heaven’ are you! If this heaven annihilates all the lives of a clan at will, then what’s the point of its existence? Even if the Ye Clan is weak, we will defy heaven and see if the thief chosen by heaven, the spokesperson of Dao, has teeth as sharp as claimed!”

Ye Ziming cursed loudly, and his words immediately drew several rebukes:

”Insolent!”

”Blasphemous words, the Heavenly Dao will punish!”

”A descendant of sinful blood, only fit to live in the darkness, lowly ants. Disrespecting heaven, showing no reverence, deserving of extinction and ruin!”

It goes without saying, those speaking these words were all elders from the Heavenly Dao Palace.

The ones Xuanyuan Moxie sent this time were not ordinary elders!

Self-proclaimed spokespersons of the Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Dao Palace were incredibly sensitive to such ’outrageous’ words, and it became an instinctive reaction for them to retort upon hearing them.

To become an elder at the Heavenly Dao Palace level, one’s cultivation must at least be at the Half-step Heavenly Deity level, and this time the Heavenly Dao Palace sent out multiple at once, with uncertain numbers still outside Jueye Land.

This was evidently a significant deployment.

Compared to the Ye family at its peak, such an array could be ignored, but the current Ye family facing these opponents, alongside numerous other watchful powers of the Divine Kingdom, was tantamount to encountering a dead end.

”Boom!”

Ye Ziming’s determination to proceed undeterred eventually infuriated these people, and they initiated a more violent assault. Even though they were suppressed in Jueye Land, these individuals were nevertheless powerhouses of the Heavenly God Realm.

Under the successive attacks, even Ye Ziming could hardly withstand it.
