Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 2663: Chapter 2662: Resolving Future Threats

Afterward, the Sovereign Witch, in the form of a Soul, silently followed beside Lin Dong and Yun Ruoxian, like a guardian shield, adding a touch of mystery and reassurance to their journey.

Night descended, the cave lit by flames, yet unable to illuminate their exhausted yet determined faces. They slept soundly in the tranquility of this exotic realm, dreaming of their hopes and plans for the future.

As the night color faded away, gently awakening the slumbering travelers.

”The night has passed. Let’s go find the Clan Chief. After giving them the herbs and Dan medicines, we will bid farewell to the tribe and set off to find Tang Yun and Tian Kong.” Lin Dong turned to Yun Ruoxian beside him and said.

Yun Ruoxian nodded with a smile. They packed their belongings, carrying herbs and Dan medicines carefully selected from the Dragon Ring Space, and set out towards the center of the tribe.

These precious herbs, each containing the essence of nature, would greatly benefit their tribe.

Before the Clan Chief, Lin Dong sincerely displayed the herbs one by one, explaining their uses and effects in detail.

The Clan Chief looked at these treasures, rarely seen in ordinary days, with shock and gratitude in his eyes.

”Young Friend Lin, you are truly a benefactor of our tribe! These herbs will greatly improve the lives of the tribe members, especially for those suffering from sickness, it is like a sweet rain.”

The Clan Chief’s voice trembled slightly with excitement, as he tightly grasped Lin Dong’s hand, intending to keep this favor in his heart.

However, the joyous atmosphere did not last long before it was suddenly broken by a burst of commotion.

Ah-Lei, the first warrior of the tribe, stormed into the clan chief’s residence with a face full of anger, pointing directly at Lin Dong, accusing loudly: ”Clan Chief, this outsider harbors ill intentions. His offering of herbs is just a ploy to usurp our tribe’s authority!”

His words were fierce, his emotions intense, as if he wanted to pour out all his discontent and suspicion.

In face of Ah-Lei’s accusations, the Clan Chief did not immediately express his stance, but instead looked deeply at Lin Dong with his eyes that had experienced years of vicissitudes.

He trusted his intuition.

”Ah-Lei,” the Clan Chief said in a deep voice, ”I believe Young Friend Lin is not the person you say he is. The herbs and Dan medicines he gifted us are tangible assistance, enough to prove his sincerity and goodwill. Besides, he has made it clear that he is about to leave the tribe, how could he have ulterior motives?”

Upon hearing this, Ah-Lei’s face turned iron blue, unable to accept how easily the Clan Chief denied his suspicions and accusations.

”Clan Chief! How can you so easily trust an outsider? Am I, the first warrior of this tribe, not more trustworthy than an outsider in your heart?”

He angrily roared, finally turning around in fury, leaving behind a trail of heavy footsteps, disappearing from everyone’s sight.

Lin Dong and Yun Ruoxian exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of rage in each other’s eyes.

Evidently, this Ah-Lei had not learned his lesson from yesterday’s incident.

...

After bidding farewell to the Clan Chief, Lin Dong and Yun Ruoxian, with the Soul of Wu Shen hidden in the darkness, left the tribe.

The Clan Chief and others escorted them outside the tribe.

”Young Friend Lin, may the gods bless you with safety and success.” Before parting, the Clan Chief blessed Lin Dong and Yun Ruoxian with peace.

Lin Dong returned the gesture, ”Thank you, Clan Chief, we are leaving now.”

They set off on their journey to find Tang Yun and the others.

Having looked at the map, Lin Dong and Yun Ruoxian decided to first head to a nearby tribe to see if they could find Tang Yun and the others.

Like Lin Dong and Yun Ruoxian, they thought there was a high possibility that Tang Yun and the others had gone to other tribes.

The two walked a few kilometers from the tribe when suddenly, a loud noise broke the current silence. Ah-Lei was riding a majestic leopard, followed by a group of fierce-looking tribal big men wielding clubs, approaching them like a dark cloud descending.

The leopard’s ghostly green eyes glowed with a wild light, occasionally letting out low growls, making the whole atmosphere instantly tense.

Ah-Lei’s mouth curved into a cold smile, his gaze lingering on Yun Ruoxian’s stunning face for a moment, before turning to Lin Dong, full of provocation:

”Think you can leave? No way! You crippled one of my arms yesterday and beat me. Do you think you can leave just like that now?”

”Leave that woman behind, and then break your own legs, and I will give you a way out.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong furrowed his brow, a glint of cold light flashed in his eyes. He gently shielded Yun Ruoxian behind him, facing this sudden threat without a trace of fear, instead letting out a cold laugh:

”It seems the lesson you learned yesterday wasn’t deep enough. Ah-Lei, do you think that these rabble and a wild beast can detain us?”

Hearing this, Ah-Lei’s face darkened, clearly not expecting Lin Dong to be so resolute. He patted the leopard beneath him, which, sensing its master’s anger, let out an earth-shaking roar, stirring up dust around.

”Hmph, don’t think that having some skills makes you invincible. Today, I will show you who is the ruler on this land!”

Lin Dong took a deep breath, raising his right hand slowly, even without his Inner Qi, Ah-Lei and his men could not challenge him.

Before he finished speaking, Lin Dong’s figure flickered, weaving like a ghost apparition through the crowd, each strike precise and deadly. Within a few breaths, several big men were down, with cries of pain echoing one after another.

Seeing this, Ah-Lei let out a furious shout, urging the leopard to pounce on Lin Dong, intending to use the beast’s ferocity to turn the tides.

However, Lin Dong was already prepared, skillfully dodging and using the surrounding terrain to maneuver with the leopard, seeking an opportunity for a knockout blow.

Finally, with a clever use of force, Lin Dong landed a palm on the leopard’s side abdomen, the powerful spiritual force instantly making the leopard howl and roll on the ground, losing its fighting capacity.

Seeing this, Ah-Lei’s face changed dramatically, not expecting Lin Dong’s strength to be so formidable. But at this moment, there was no turning back, and he could only press on, swinging his club towards Lin Dong.

However, it was all in vain. Lin Dong easily dodged his attack, countering with a palm that sent him flying, landing heavily on the ground, unable to move.

Ah-Lei stared blankly at Lin Dong, somewhat in disbelief.

”You... how can you be so powerful?” He was truly shocked that even with a dozen men and a leopard, he was still no match for Lin Dong.

This was despite Lin Dong not using the Divine Talisman or having the Sovereign Witch intervene.

Just using outer strength was enough to defeat them.

Though he lost his Inner Qi, how could Lin Dong’s outer strength be so simple?

”I had already let you off, but since you don’t cherish it, don’t blame me.” Lin Dong sneered, then struck a palm on the top of his head.

”Ah~~” Ah-Lei let out a scream and then perished.

Looking at their corpses, Yun Ruoxian said, ”It seems, wherever you go, there are those with ulterior motives. This also resolves lingering troubles for the tribe.”

”Where there are people, there is Jianghu, let’s go.” Lin Dong ignored the corpses of Ah-Lei and his men, leaving with Yun Ruoxian.
