The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 4187: Chapter 4187: Mysterious Attitude (First Update)

At the next moment, Gui Lingyun turned her head and glared coldly at Gui Ping, saying, ”Gui Ping, if you keep flattering others like that in the future, don’t follow me anymore! As a martial artist, do you have any dignity?”

Gui Ping’s behavior this time really disappointed her!

Gui Ping was her servant, but when trouble arose, he didn’t even stand before her; he practically kneeled before the enemy!

What use is such a servant?

Honestly, she might as well keep a dog!

Gui Ping dared not express any grievances and nodded repeatedly.

But deep down, he utterly hated Ye Chen!

He secretly vowed that, given the chance, he would make sure Ye Chen dies!

Ye Chen glanced at Gui Ping, as if he’d seen through his thoughts, coldly smiling inside; he let Gui Ping go once, he wouldn’t let him go a second time.

If Gui Ping courted death again, even if Gui Lingyun intervened to stop him, Ye Chen wouldn’t spare Gui Ping.

At this moment, Gui Lingyun’s beautiful eyes flickered as she looked at Ye Chen, smiled, and said, ”Thank you earlier, your rebuke really felt satisfying...”

She knew Ye Chen wasn’t truly a servant, but facing Zhang Yan’er, Ye Chen took a huge risk to speak for her. With Gui Lingyun’s character, she had already considered Ye Chen as one of her own.

As for his demonic beasts bloodline, it no longer mattered.

Ye Chen smiled without saying a word, his expression seemed a bit strange...

He spoke up because when Zhang Yan’er mocked Gui Lingyun, she had involved him too, not with the intent to defend Gui Lingyun...

Of course, he didn’t expect Gui Lingyun to defend him either.

After all, he appeared to merely be a martial artist of the Holy Ancestor Realm, and basically a stranger, holding no worth to Gui Lingyun, yet he was surprised that Gui Lingyun still did it!

The Lingwu Continent is unforgiving, always prioritizing interests! Gui Lingyun’s actions could be seen as too naive...

Many martial artists would scoff at this!

However, this naïveté was precisely what Ye Chen liked, his fondness for Gui Lingyun was growing deeper.

They found a hotel in Ghost Forest Ancient City to rest and recuperate.

Two days later, in the hotel, the expressions of Ye Chen, Gui Lingyun, and Uncle Liang changed simultaneously as they looked in a certain direction, and the next instant, they appeared above the hotel.

Simultaneously, hundreds of golden bolts of lightning flew up throughout the entire Ghost Forest Ancient City!

Ye Chen’s eyes flickered as a vast blue-black Yin filled the sky, even though it was tens of thousands of miles away, the piercing chill instantly enveloped the entire Ghost Forest Ancient City!

Even someone as strong as Gui Lingyun, a Qiankun Realm Eighth Layer Heaven expert, felt a bit uncomfortable after the Cold Yin, frowning slightly.

Ye Chen looked at Gui Lingyun and asked, ”Miss Gui, could that be...”

Gui Lingyun nodded, ”That’s right, that is where the Netherworld King Relics will open! Let’s move!”

As they spoke, many other golden bolts of lightning had already flown towards the location of the Netherworld King Relics.

Soon, Gui Ping and Gui Xin also appeared in the sky.

Gui Lingyun stared at the direction where the Yin thundered and said, ”Let’s go!”

At the next moment, the sedan chair outside Ghost Forest Ancient City transformed into a five-colored spiritual light and appeared behind Gui Lingyun.

She stepped into the sedan chair, Gui Ping and Gui Xin lifted the sedan again, Ye Chen and Uncle Liang followed beside the sedan, their bodies flashed with light and transformed into a dazzling rainbow, shooting toward the location of the Netherworld King Relics!

Before long, they arrived at the ruins.

Ye Chen’s eyes flickered and he first saw a massive door!

A thousand-meter-tall, entirely dark, engraved with countless Mysterious Runes, metal door!

And the rolling Yin was emanating from this door!

The door stood suspended in the air, behind it was entirely empty and barren.

This door should be the entrance to the Netherworld King Relics, but until the official opening of the ruins, people cannot enter.

Ye Chen saw next, densely packed silhouettes!

Currently, in front of the door were thousands of martial artists gathered!

Moreover, there were still golden bolts of lightning rushing toward this place!

Ye Chen’s eyes had a flickering strange color, the intelligence had only mentioned some hidden forces of the Chenyue Sea, but he didn’t expect so many to come!

His gaze swept across the crowd and soon rested on several figures with far superior aura!

Those people were all very young, none older than a thousand years, yet their strength was extremely formidable, each had reached the Half-step Origin Realm!

At this moment, Gui Lingyun in the sedan seemed to sense Ye Chen’s gaze and suddenly said, ”Those people you’re looking at are Xu Beikui, a genius rogue cultivator from Yangzhen Domain, Chen Wuju, a prodigy of the Ghost Dao from Heavenly Human Domain, Lei Luocha, son of the Family head of the Nine Heavens Ghost Valley Yin Thunder Tribe, true disciple of the Hundred Ghost Sect...”

As she spoke, Gui Lingyun’s tone became serious!

This time, the competition for the Netherworld King Relics was far more intense than she imagined!

Even Uncle Liang standing behind Gui Lingyun spoke solemnly, ”Miss, I cannot accompany you into the ruins this time; this exploration might have many changes, though what the lord instructed is important, the most important is still Miss’s safety! Please don’t forget!”

Ye Chen’s expression shifted as he looked at Uncle Liang with a peculiar gaze, unable to accompany them into the ruins?

What does this mean?

Uncle Liang glanced at Ye Chen, his gray-white eyes flickered, pondering something, then suddenly spoke, ”The Netherworld King Relics can only be entered by martial artists under a thousand years old; any older, no matter how powerful, will struggle to pass.”

Ye Chen’s heart skipped with joy hearing this!

If such a threat as Uncle Liang was absent, even if those geniuses were formidable, Ye Chen was confident he could challenge them!

Uncle Liang saw Ye Chen’s expression, his eyes flickered again, as if he had confirmed some thoughts.

He suddenly secretly transmitted a message to Gui Lingyun, ”Miss, once inside the ruins, try to stay with Young Master Ye, it might be safer.”

Gui Lingyun’s pretty face revealed a shocked expression at these words!

What does Uncle Liang mean?

Although she admired Ye Chen’s character, ultimately, Ye Chen was just a martial artist of the Holy Ancestor Realm...

This level of strength, what use does it have in the Netherworld King Relics?

Why would Uncle Liang advise her to stay near Ye Chen?

However, Gui Lingyun didn’t question more, merely nodded silently.

She knew well how rich Uncle Liang’s experience was in the world, far beyond her own!
