The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 2414: Chapter 2388: Arrogance! (Seven Updates)

”Oh?”

”Who is this young man?”

”Your power is not low!”

Old Master Qin faintly felt a threat emitting from Ye Chen but continued to face him with a smile.

However, his true descendant, Qin Aotian, who even wore Heavenly Armor, did not catch his eye.

”I’m not someone you need to concern yourself with!”

”But I know that you, the head of the Qin family, have neglected your own children and let them roam the streets. As their master, I must ask what kind of incompetent fool you are to allow such neglect!”

Ye Chen’s expression was unfriendly, and his gaze was sharp like a sword, sweeping over various figures.

”Our own child?”

”Qin Baitian, what is this all about?”

Before Grand Elder Qin could speak, some Qin Family Elders began to talk.

They usually secluded themselves for cultivation training, often a few hundred years at a time, some even a thousand years. If it weren’t for Grand Elder Qin’s birthday celebration, they would not have left seclusion. At this moment, facing the current family head of the Qin family, they undoubtedly had some complaints!

Our Qin family is built on prestige!

And our family head has abandoned his own son, letting him wander the streets?

What is going on? Are we discarding the prestige of our Qin family? Qin Baitian, are you even a father?

”Qin Baitian, you are the current family head!”

”Is everything this young man has spoken true, is this youth your child?”

Old Master Qin’s expression turned unfriendly; he had always proclaimed harmony within the Qin clan and hoped that descendants would not kill each other. Little did he expect that in just a thousand years of his seclusion, the position of family head had passed through two generations and ended up in Qin Baitian’s hands, resulting in such a situation.

His own son!

He could let him wander the streets and neglect him utterly; even a tiger does not eat its offspring, and animals do not kill their young even in dire situations. Yet, without any crisis, the current family head of his Qin family had abandoned his own son?

”Grand Elder!”

”This, this...”

”Let me explain this later; today is your birthday celebration, it’s best not to worry about them.”

Qin Baitian’s face was ashen as he made a fist-and-palm salute towards Old Master Qin, his heart filled with anguish.

Old Master Qin slightly waved his hand, and a massive palm formed of Five Elements power gathered and directly sent Qin Baitian flying. This Great Void-level expert was nothing before him.

”Shut your mouth!”

”When I emerged from seclusion, I heard about your wife’s tyranny and your own lack of moral fiber, unable to even protect your own child!”

”Do you deserve to be the head of our Qin family?”

He snorted coldly a few times, slightly spread his hands, and pierced Qin Aotian’s arm, a drop of fresh blood oozed out.

Then, he forced a drop of his own blood out, which collided with it, merged, and after nodding in satisfaction, confirmed his lineage, he asked, ”What is your name?”

”Old Master Qin!”

”I, I am called Qin Aotian!”

Qin Aotian answered truthfully, slightly intimidated by the gaze of this old ancestor.

Ye Chen, however, outlined a smile and said, ”Old Master Qin, with this settled, may we take our seats now?”

”Come in!”

”Take your seats!”

Old Master Qin nodded slightly and, after a brief remark, began conversing with various family heads and elders at the main table.

Qin Baitian flew to Ye Chen’s side, his expression ice-cold as he stared unfavorably at Qin Aotian, and with a flick of his sleeve, he said in a low voice, ”Rebel, why did you come under such circumstances?”

He didn’t wait for Qin Aotian to explain and, infuriated, stormed off, saying as he left, ”Just find them any spot!”

”Yes!”

”Understood!”

A group of guards nodded and led Ye Chen and Qin Aotian to the outermost table, where only the two of them sat.

The guards, having served Qin Baitian for hundreds of years and unlike the Qin family elders, lived under the breath of Qin Baitian. Since the grand ancestor had allowed them to sit and the family head had commanded it, but the family head was in a foul mood, they casually arranged a spot for this mixed breed.

Many guards knew about the events of the past, how the family head lacked authority and was fearful of his wife, who had driven the child she brought back—Qin Aotian—away, and how he was then forbidden by the second master from entering the family genealogy, thus being thrown out by the family head. Fortunately, the child’s vitality was resilient enough to survive with some help from neighbors.

”Young Master Qin.”

”Finish eating and leave quickly.”

”The family head isn’t in a good mood, and the grand old master is still in seclusion.”

A guard captain, speaking softly to Qin Aotian and Ye Chen.

He was Qin Baitian’s personal guard, who over the years had also helped Qin Aotian, though not as cold-hearted as Qin Baitian. After Qin Baitian abandoned Qin Aotian, he had hardly visited him in decades.

”Thank you!”

Qin Aotian hurriedly thanked him and added, ”Master, this elder brother here used to take care of me, often giving me some food and Divine Cloud Stones.”

Ye Chen nodded slightly at this, making no particular expression.

”I dare not claim credit!”

”These days, I was sent to the Divine Kingdom by the master to handle affairs, only returning last night. It must have been tough on young master!”

The guard said no more, fearing being discovered, and quickly left.

Ye Chen took his seat at the table, looking around, noticing many other banquet tables, but his own was served the worst food.

Even the table served to maids and guards nearby was significantly better.

Instantaneously, Ye Chen’s expression also turned unpleasant.

Suddenly, a Qin family elder laughed and said, ”The feast begins, and it is also time for our men at Nanqin Villa to celebrate the grand old master’s birthday. Please, descendants of the Qin family, step forward!”

In an instant.

Seventeen young men and women, each dressed in splendid robes, stepped forward from various seats, standing on a red cloth in the center of the banquet, and in unison, they congratulated Old Master Qin. Each held a treasure, a gift for the grand old master.

”Traditionally, our Qin family prioritizes filial piety!”

”Now, let the descendants of the Qin family begin the presentation of treasures.”

”This old man also wants to see if the descendants of my Qin family are diligent in presenting gifts to the grand old master!”

Qin Nansheng personally presided over the treasure presentation ceremony and, meaningfully glanced at Qin Aotian and Ye Chen, with a particular strategy in mind.

After finishing, he stepped back to the grand old master’s side, along with over a hundred Qin family elders, and thousands of others watched the descendants of the Qin family present their treasures.

”Grand old master!”

”My father is Qin Baitian, my name is Qin Zheng, and this item was obtained from the Endless Sea.”

A young man slowly stepped forward, holding out a box with the treasure, which he opened to reveal bursts of brilliance, and announced, ”The treasure presented by your grandson is the Seven-Colored Gold-Plated Jade, which has the effect of calming the mind and stabilizing the cultivation of Great Void Strong People. Please accept it with pleasure, grand old master!”

As soon as he finished speaking.

Before the grand old master could even respond, a great commotion erupted among the banquet attendees.

The Seven-Colored Gold-Plated Jade, a treasure comparable to a saint artifact: not much for the strong, but for Qin Zheng, it surely came at a great cost.
