The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 1584: Deception

Chapter 1584: Deception Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After all, Ye Chen was only a Divine King realm cultivator. Those geniuses ranked near the top of the Immortal Ascension Rankings had the ability to kill middle-stage Dao Integration realm experts.

Even if it was not the strongest forces that wanted him, even if it was a slightly weaker force, the Xiao family could not afford to offend him. After all, even though the Xiao family was one of the best in Heaven Ascension City, in reality, they were really a speck of dust when compared to the major factions in the entire Lingwu Continent…

“Which sect do you belong to?” Xiao Lang asked hesitantly.

“You don’t deserve to know the name of my sect!” Ye Chen laughed arrogantly.

Naturally, Ye Chen did not want to make a move, so he was simply playing mind games. If he fought, it might affect the refining process of the Gengjin.

The two of them looked at each other for a long time, after which Xiao Lang suddenly smiled and said, “I was misled by a lowly person and misunderstood Young Master Ye. I’m sorry.”

As he spoke, he turned to look at the shop employee beside him.

“Master Xiao, what did you say?” The staff looked at Xiao Lang in a daze. “I…”

Without waiting for him to finish, Xiao Lang suddenly raised his hand and gently pressed it against the employee’s body. With a loud bang, the employee turned into dust and dissipated!

“Let’s go!”

Xiao Lang suddenly turned around and went downstairs. The few attendants could not react for a moment and stared blankly at Xiao Lang’s retreating figure. The family head actually gave in!

How was this possible? However, they still quickly caught up with Xiao Lang. At this moment, if someone were to walk in front of Xiao Lang, they would discover that his expression was terrifyingly gloomy!

Ye Chen exhaled softly and sat back in his chair.

After Xiao Lang went downstairs, he did not leave. With a wave of his hand, a jade token flew out and hung in front of him. He tapped lightly and a respectful voice came out from the jade token. “Family Head, what are your orders?”

“Report Huang Can’s location to me within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. If you can’t do it, you and all your subordinates will be punished according to the family’s laws.”

Xiao Lang’s voice was cold and emotionless.

“Yes, Sir,” The voice from the jade tablet hurriedly replied. Punishment according to the family’s laws meant that he could lose his life at any time…

After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the jade token lit up. The voice of the man from before could be heard from within. “Family Head, we’ve found him. Huang Can is currently in Heavenly Fragrance Garden on Gray Cloud Mountain!”

“Heavenly Fragrance Garden? It’s a little far away…”

Xiao Lang’s expression was filled with disdain. The Heavenly Fragrance Garden was a famous place for seeking pleasure in the cultivation world. The women in it were all cultivation vessels that were proficient in dual cultivation techniques. However, Xiao Lang had always disdained to waste his precious cultivation time in such a place.

“Watch this kid closely. If I can’t find him when I get back, you guys will be punished accordingly,” he said coldly to his followers.

“Yes!” The four early-stage Dao Integration realm subordinates bowed and replied with a stern expression.

“Ye Chen, if you lied to me, I’ll make sure you die a horrible death!” Xiao Lang glanced at the third floor of the weapon shop and flew towards the direction of the Gray Cloud Mountain.

Not long after Xiao Lang left, Wu Wei came out of the refining workshop. His face was full of excitement as he carefully held the jade bottle in his hand and walked over to Ye Chen with a smile.

“Hahaha, I succeeded! I actually came into contact with Gengjin. This is the dream of many artifact refiners…”

“Ah, all of the extracted Gengjin is here!”

As he spoke, he handed over the jade bottle.

Ye Chen’s face lit up when he heard this. He took the jade bottle and said to Wu Wei, “Thank you, Brother Wu. There’s one more thing. Xiao Lang came by just now.”

“Xiao Lang?” Wu Wei looked nervous.” Where is he?”

Xiao Lang was not so easy to deal with.

“He left,” Ye Chen said calmly.

“Left? How?”

Ye Chen smiled.” He ran away because of me. He should be looking for Huang Can now. However, he should be back soon. Brother Wu, do you have a place to lend me for a few hours of seclusion?”

“Ah?” Wu Wei looked at Ye Chen in surprise. “You’re going into secluded cultivation now?”

“Yes, there’s one more thing. Brother Wu, I hope you can leave this place for the time being. The reason why I’m in seclusion here is because I want to borrow your barrier. I don’t want you to deal with the Xiao family for me. Otherwise, I will still leave.”

Wu Wei was silent for a moment before finally nodding.

Wu Wei then brought Ye Chen to a secret chamber and handed Ye Chen a formation disk and said, “This is the cultivation room. You can also activate the formation with this disk. Use it as you please, but please don’t die. Otherwise, I won’t be able to face Brother Chen.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine,” Ye Chen said with a smile.

After Wu Wei left, Ye Chen activated the second layer of the seal. He sat down cross-legged in the secret chamber and took out the jade bottle. His expression was solemn as he said to Xiao Yao, “Master, let’s begin.”

“Alright,” Xiao Yao replied, “You will circulate the cultivation technique according to my instructions.”

Ye Chen followed Xiao Yao’s instructions and began to circulate the Divine Demon Reincarnation Technique. The seal on the jade bottle dissipated and specks of golden metal powder floated out from the mouth of the bottle.

As the cultivation technique circulated, the metal powder revolved around Ye Chen. From time to time, a grain of powder would fly toward Ye Chen and fuse into his body. As the Gengjin fused into his body, Ye Chen’s aura was rapidly strengthening.

…

The Heavenly Fragrance Garden was situated at the peak of the Gray Cloud Mountain. Xiao Lang stood on the clouds and looked down at the Heavenly Fragrance Garden below him. He shouted, “Is the Immortal Ascension Guide, Brother Huang, here?”

The sound waves echoed throughout the entire mountain.

A streak of light soared up and flew toward Xiao Lang.

A few seconds later, Xiao Lang leaped into the air and flew toward Sky Ascension City. Huang Can watched Xiao Lang’s departing figure with glee and sneered. “Ye Chen, oh Ye Chen, I can’t deal with you, but you decided to court death. You can’t blame me for this, hahahaha.”

In the secret chamber, Ye Chen was sweating profusely and his face was solemn. The Gengjin powder that had surrounded him had been absorbed into his body. A tiger phantom appeared behind him and emitted faint golden light. He was desperately refining the Gengjin within his body!

Even if it was a low-grade Gengjin, the Gengjin energy contained within it was unimaginably powerful. It almost destroyed Ye Chen’s meridians!

Ye Chen could only circulate the Divine Demon Reincarnation Technique to its utmost strength. Relying on the power of the Gengjin White Tiger Blood Essence in his body, he slowly digested the surging energy. As the Gengjin energy was refined, Ye Chen’s meridians emitted faint golden light, which strengthened the golden light emitted by the tiger phantom behind him.

At this moment, a loud bang was heard from outside the building as a streak of light crashed onto the ground with boundless might, revealing Xiao Lang’s figure.

“Is Ye Chen still inside?” he asked his subordinates coldly.

“Family Head, that kid is hiding in the building and hasn’t left.”

“Ye Chen, how dare you lie to me!” Xiao Lang shouted as he walked up the stairs.
