The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 3871: Chapter 3871: Reunion with an Old Friend! Everything Has Changed! (Sixth Update)

...

In the Netherworld Dark Mansion, several men and women with extraordinary presence sat in the reception hall. Meanwhile, Xiao Rou, standing beside them, appeared rather uneasy in front of these people...

The reason was simple: these individuals were the governors from various states who had appeared around the Dark Mansion when Elder Tiandan advanced!

The woman in the black dress looked at the red-haired man and snorted coldly, ”Wei Ji, why are you here? It’s been days, aren’t you leaving?”

The man known as Wei Ji sipped his tea and smiled, ”You should know my purpose here better than I do, Yu Hongying.”

Yu Hongying’s beautiful eyes flickered and she remained silent. She was the first to arrive, but who knew that the one referred to as the Saint Master by Elder Tiandan would coincidentally be out?

Subsequently, Wei Ji, Xu Liang, and others arrived one after another, their purpose evidently the same as hers...

If the person was truly one of the hidden strongest, she certainly didn’t want so many people competing with her for this elder’s favor...

At that moment, the governors all simultaneously reacted, taking out a Communication Jade Token.

The next moment, they exchanged glances and stood up, heading towards the door.

...

Gu Xuan put down the jade talisman and said to Ye Chen, ”Ye Shitian, I’m afraid your departure from the Dark Domain will have to be postponed for a couple of days.”

Ye Chen frowned, ”What’s happened?”

Gu Xuan replied, ”I mentioned earlier that the Dark Domain states are searching for monstrous talents beyond the division of realms to become proxy agents, handling affairs in the Bright Territory. Now, news from the Jingzhou Mansion has arrived, summoning agents from various state domains for an examination...”

Ye Chen asked, ”How long would it take to reach Jing Province?”

Gu Xuan replied, ”Very quickly, we can use the governors’ dedicated teleportation formation to go to the Dark Domain Jingzhou Mansion. Including the examination, the round trip should take about two days.”

Ye Chen pondered momentarily, then nodded, ”In that case, let’s set out.”

He had some time, so he wasn’t in a hurry. He had agreed to Gu Xuan’s request to be the Netherworld’s proxy, so undergoing examination was naturally appropriate.

However, Ye Chen spoke again, ”Before that, please arrange for my brother to go outside first.”

Gu Xuan smiled slightly, ”That can be done.”

Ye Chen referred to his brother, Xu Shenglong!

Under Gu Xuan’s full urging, the Golden Roc exerted all its strength, and its swift escape speed suddenly increased. Before long, the three returned to the Netherworld Dark Mansion.

Elder Tiandan apologized, ”Please forgive me, Saint Master. With my current level of cultivation, entering the Bright Territory may attract attention from those old guys, and I cannot ease your burdens...”

Ye Chen smiled slightly, ”No need for that. This matter should rightfully be handled by me personally.”

Ye Chen and Gu Xuan turned into a secret chamber within the Dark Mansion, where an exceedingly complex teleportation formation was engraved.

Their figures flashed as they stepped into the formation, and Gu Xuan took out the Mansion Master Token, casting a seal. Instantly, the teleportation formation lit up brightly, powerful spatial waves surged out, engulfing their figures...

After a moment of dizziness, Ye Chen focused his gaze and found himself and Gu Xuan in an unfamiliar grand hall. He looked around and couldn’t help but slightly contract his pupils.

The material and engravings of this grand hall were far superior to those of the Netherworld Dark Mansion.

Simultaneously, the entire grand hall was shrouded in an oppressive atmosphere. If Ye Chen guessed correctly, this Jingzhou Dark Mansion was likely surrounded by an extremely terrifying formation, capable of trapping and killing even a peak-level existence in the Qiankun Realm!

Not far from Ye Chen and Gu Xuan stood a young girl dressed in black. Upon seeing Ye Chen and Gu Xuan, she smiled, ”Please follow me, the governors have been waiting in the conference hall for quite some time.”

Under the girl’s guidance, Ye Chen and Gu Xuan soon arrived at a circular venue, the center of which was a spacious open area shrouded in a layer of light, surrounded by nineteen stone pillars, each engraved with a different divine mark, supporting the venue’s second level.

This second level was a circular building formed by nineteen rooms.

The venue’s second-level rooms were made of a special crystal stone resembling a unique type of glaze, allowing a clear view of the outside from the inside despite the mottled surface seen from the outside.

Upon Ye Chen and Gu Xuan’s entry into the venue, dozens of gazes shot towards them!

Yu Hongying, Wei Ji, Xu Liang, and the governors from several nearby states in the Netherworld saw Ye Chen and their pupils contracted instantly!

Why is he here too?

If he is accompanying Gu Xuan here, it can only mean one thing: he comes as the Netherworld’s proxy!

If he indeed guided Elder Tiandan to break through a barrier, a predicament for thousands of years, why would he take on this role?

Yu Hongying’s eyebrows furrowed tightly as she muttered to herself, ”Did I guess wrong? Was Elder Tiandan’s display meant to mislead us?”

She suddenly transmitted to Wei Ji in the adjacent room, ”Wei Ji, what do you think?”

Wei Ji pondered for a moment, shaking his head, ”Let’s observe first. We’ll discern if he’s the one we imagine when the examination begins.”

Quickly, Ye Chen and Gu Xuan entered the Netherworld Dark Mansion’s room and sat down.

At that moment, a clear female voice rang out in the venue, ”Since the governors of the Nineteen States are all present, let the agents from each state enter the field and prepare for the examination.”

In an instant, a dozen golden bolts of lightning flew out from the rooms, landing before the pillars representing each state domain.

And with a flash of light, everyone’s concealed features vanished, revealing their true appearance.

Ye Chen scanned this sight and saw those eighteen young men and women each exuding a unique aura, their expressions haughty, clearly all extraordinary martial talents.

Suddenly, Ye Chen caught sight of a rather familiar figure, surprise flickering in his eyes as he abruptly spoke, ”Gu Han, is that you?”

Once those words were uttered, several of the outstanding young talents looked at Ye Chen with peculiar expressions.

Standing before the Jing Province stone pillar was a young man with a stern face, surrounded by a surge of chilling aura...

It was precisely Gu Han, the Gu Family genius whom Ye Chen had met in the Outer Realm Star Xuan Domain Black Gold City!

How did he come to be in the Dark Domain?

Ye Chen’s thoughts shifted as he released all three Cloud Clearing Techniques, and a slight hint of shock appeared on his face...

How had Gu Han’s strength advanced to such a level?

Back in Black Gold City, he wasn’t considered a strong one, but now, he had become a presence in the seventh layer of the Sky Repairing Realm!

Such advancement could only be described as defying heaven!

Now, he surely has left Zhang Chi, Zhang Qiao Ling, and others behind, far behind?

Moreover, most importantly, Ye Chen knew that although Gu Han had only reached the seventh layer of the Sky Repairing Realm in terms of cultivation, his real strength was even beyond this!
