The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 1332: Beigong Ziyu

“The cultivators on the Earth Roll are all disciples of the top fifty sects,” the purple-robed guardian said disdainfully, “Each of them has an eighth-grade immortal artifact or better. Some of the top hundred on the Earth Roll even have a pseudo Divine King-grade artifact, and the top ten definitely have Divine King-grade artifacts!”

“What is Ye Shitian in comparison? It would be good if he even manages to get into the Black Roll!”

Guardian Bai Yue did not fuss about it and continued to register participants for the competition.

…

In the Hundred Spirit Immortal Pavilion in Ancient Spirit City, a white-robed young lady was playing the zither gently on the top floor. However, a tinge of impatience appeared on her face. She mumbled, “Uncle Zheng, why must I practice the zither?”

“I’m a sword cultivator, not a zither cultivator. I might as well practice hitting people with ribbons!”

“Besides, why would Father arrange a marriage for me for no reason? He even wants me to be proficient in the four arts before I leave the pavilion. I’m a Semi Divine realm cultivator, and have a fair share of martial techniques. Isn’t that enough?”

“I don’t like playing the zither, playing Go, writing calligraphy, or painting!”

The girl in white pouted and placed her hands on the zither. Although she looked like a heavenly beauty, she gave off a playful feeling.

She lowered her head and casually fiddled with the zither. However, upon closer inspection, this zither emitted an ancient aura. It was clearly a seventh-grade Divine King-grade Artifact. However, at this moment, it was being used for practicing music. Furthermore, the jade pendant and sword that the white-robed girl was wearing were both seventh or eighth-grade Divine King-grade artifacts!

From this, it was obvious that she was rich.

From the side, a black-robed old man stood solemnly. He looked at the white-robed young lady in front of him and sighed. “Seventh Miss, I have to respect the orders of the old master. He wants to see you Miss learn the four arts, but Seventh Miss, you…”

“Hey, Uncle Zheng!”

“I have no problem playing the zither, playing Go, writing calligraphy, or painting, but this Mu Feng fellow from the Jindao Sect whom I got engaged to when I was a child, why should I be engaged to him?”

“He’s only a ninth-level Semi Divine realm cultivator!”

The girl in white looked helpless and said, “He didn’t go to the Sea of Slaughter to kill demonic beasts. Second, he didn’t participate in the conquest of other families, but only knows how to fight with the disciples of those other sects!”

“I don’t like this kind of man!”

“Seventh Miss, Mu Feng’s father is the leader of Jindao Sect,” Uncle Zheng sighed and said. Although the Jindao Sect is a subordinate sect of our Beigong family, they also have a late-stage Primordial Chaos ancestor among their ranks, who is able to help us.”

“A late-stage Primordial Chaos realm expert…”

“My father sold his daughter for that?”

“Really, it’s so annoying. Uncle Zheng, has there been anything interesting going on recently?”

The girl in white sat on the white jade stool again. She was fifteen or sixteen years old, but she had already reached the peak of the Semi Divine realm. If she was not lazy and playful, she would have reached the Divine King realm by now.

She was the seventh daughter of the Beigong family, Beigong Ziyu!

Back then, when the head of the Beigong family took office, he suppressed the sects, but also befriended some of them. He wanted to appease some of them, while intimidating the others. The head of the hundred sects, the Jindao Sect, was on the list of those he wanted to rope in.

Thus, a marriage alliance was proposed, where the seventh daughter of the Beigong family was to marry Mu Feng, who was the eldest son of the Jindao Sect’s leader.

Mu Feng was only in his early 30s, but he was only a ninth-level Semi Divine realm expert. Naturally, he was not looked upon highly by Beigong Ziyu. Since she did not want to cultivate at home, she brought her servants to stay in Ancient Spirit City temporarily.

“Something interesting?” Uncle Zheng stroked his beard and smiled.

“Seventh Miss, I have discovered something interesting!”

“Oh, what is it? Quick, tell me!” Beigong Ziyu’s interest was piqued.

Uncle Zheng shook his head slightly and sighed. Seventh Miss was only interested in interesting things, and not the four arts.

“Yesterday morning, something happened in Heavenly Spirit City,” he said slowly, “A cultivator from a low-level martial plane named Ye Shitian arrived at Heavenly Spirit City. He signed up for the Hundred Sect Universe Competition as an eighth-level Supreme Emperor realm cultivator, but he got into a conflict with a law enforcement officer of the city.”

“A person from a low-level martial plane got into a conflict with a law enforcement officer?”

“The ending was probably very tragic then.” Beigong Ziyu shook her head with a regretful expression. “Poor little guy.”

“No, no!”

“Not only did Ye Shitian not suffer, but his fame also spread throughout the ten cities and the Hundred Sects overnight!”

Uncle Zheng said slowly, “That law enforcement officer was killed by Ye Shitian. Then a captain of the law enforcement team came, who was the cousin of the first law enforcement officer. He was a seventh-level Semi Divine realm cultivator. I think his name was Luo Shuyuan. He fought with Ye Shitian as well, but was also killed!”

“Even the chief enforcer of the south gate was forced to take action, who was a ninth-level Semi Divine realm expert. However, in the end, the chief enforcer was crippled by Ye Shitian!”

“After that, the City Lord of Heavenly Spirit City attacked Ye Shitian, and both sides suffered heavy losses!”

“Impossible!” Beigong Ziyu exclaimed and shook her head. She did not believe this at all.

“Uncle Zheng, you are lying to me. This is impossible!”

“How can an eighth-level Supreme Emperor realm cultivator fight the City Lord of Heavenly Spirit City?”

Beigong Ziyu shook her head and pouted. She muttered, “I met the City Lord of Heavenly Spirit City three years ago. At that time, he was already a fifth-level Divine King realm expert. He hasn’t encountered any powerful enemies since then, or suffered any injuries, so his strength hasn’t weakened!”

“Moreover, he still has the seventh-grade Divine King-grade weapon that my father bestowed upon him, as well as other Divine King-grade artifacts. How can he lose to someone like Ye Shitian?”

“I’m not buying your story!”

If Uncle Zheng had said that Ye Shitian was an eighth-level Semi Divine realm expert, I might have believed him.

After all, there were geniuses in top-tier families who could do this, but this Ye Shitian fellow was only an eighth-level Supreme Emperor realm cultivator!

No matter how one looked at it, it was impossible!

Supreme Emperor realm cultivators did not have perfected Daos. Even if they used a Dao Integration-grade artifact, they could not unleash its full power, as it required nomological power. Their spiritual energy, blood essence, energy and physical bodies were all weaker as well.

It was simply impossible!

“Seventh Miss, hahaha! I see that I’ve caught your interest!”

“When have I ever lied to you?” Uncle Zheng smiled, looking especially kind.

He had also watched Beigong Ziyu grow up. Although he was a servant, he took good care of her.

“About that… That’s true!”

“Uncle Zheng, you have never lied to me!”

“But…” Beigong Ziyu was a little anxious. She put her hands on her hips and looked at the surrounding forest outside. “I still think it’s impossible. How can an eighth-level Supreme Emperor realm cultivator defeat the City Lord of Heavenly Spirit City?”
