Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 568: Chapter 567, Come Prepared

To truly experience the unique cuisine of Jingdu, you can’t just rely on online guides, no matter how detailed they are. It’s far better to have a local show you around.

Not only can you taste the food that only old Jingdu residents can enjoy, but you also get to experience the culture here.

Undoubtedly,

Jiang Hongyi was the best guide.

She took Xu Wendong, Nie Xiaoyu, and Ye Qingxin to try some snacks at local eateries in the city. Although the places were not particularly classy, the flavors left a deep impression on everyone.

Especially a drink called Bean Juice, which had Xu Wendong, Nie Xiaoyu, and Ye Qingxin all admitting defeat.

They just couldn’t swallow it, not a single bit!

However, one place’s pastries were quite good, fragrant and crispy, sweet but not overly so.

There was also a Qingshui Hotpot Restaurant; it didn’t have the spicy and numbing sensation of Sichuan and Chongqing hotpots, but it highlighted the fresh sweetness of lamb, offering a different experience.

Ye Qingxin sipped on some osmanthus cake and said softly, ”I just got word. Miss Tang has discovered the people protecting her in secret, and she even guessed where they’re from!”

Xu Wendong didn’t say much in response.

After all, those experts would finish their task after tonight.

And he didn’t plan on getting involved with Tang Xiaoxiao.

Ye Qingxin: ”There’s something else. Qian Wantian, Hu Yidao, and Lu Jian have also arrived in Jingdu.” Saying this, she grabbed the milk tea from Xu Wendong’s hand, took a couple of sips until the osmanthus cake in her throat didn’t feel so hard to swallow, and then handed the milk tea back to Xu Wendong.

Her relationship with Xu Wendong was quite unique.

They hadn’t slept together, but they’d done everything else that could be done.

Including cursing...

”What are those three doing in Jingdu?” Xu Wendong rubbed the lipstick mark on the straw with a look of disdain, making Ye Qingxin feel disgruntled, wishing she could tear him into pieces.

Ye Qingxin: ”Isn’t it obvious enough? The Xu Family is the one who brought them here. After all, the Xu Family suffered greatly under the suppression of those three Great Grandmasters before.”

”Now that Ye Gucheng, that scum, has emerged from seclusion, doesn’t he want to take this opportunity to wipe you and those three out in one go?”

Xu Wendong chuckled and shook his head: ”The Xu Family shouldn’t place their hopes on Ye Gucheng!”

Ye Qingxin: ”Hu Yidao and Lu Jian broke through their shackles a few days ago, becoming entities beyond the Great Grandmasters. Even excluding those three, I alone am confident I can defeat Ye Gucheng!” As she said this, a cold glint flickered in her eyes.

Tomorrow was the day Xu Wendong would go home to honor his ancestors, and she would accompany him, then settle that blood debt from years ago!

At this moment,

Jiang Hongyi, holding Xiaoyu by the wrist, turned and asked, ”How about we hit the ski resort?”

She loved skiing.

She would go abroad to ski several times each year.

Of course,

If it weren’t for the Outer Eight Sects gathering this year, she would be skiing in a Swiss Ski Resort right now.

Fortunately, Jingdu also had ski resorts, and with the heavy snowfall before Spring Festival, one could have plenty of fun.

”Today, I’m at ladies’ service. Go wherever you want, and I’ll tag along!” Xu Wendong had a carefree attitude. Even though he couldn’t ski, it was still better than staying in the hotel.

”Alright then, I’ll book the tickets and have the gear sent over!” Jiang Hongyi flashed a charming smile.

The four then drove to a large ski resort forty kilometers away from Jingdu. While there weren’t many people from the city, the ski resort was bustling with people.

One shadow after another raced across the snow, making Xu Wendong quite envious.

”If you have a Golden Core Stage cultivation level, you can perform Sword Flight. I wonder if I’ll be able to reach that legendary realm in my lifetime!”

Arriving at the entrance of the ski resort, a middle-aged man was already waiting. He was a driver from Jiang Hongyi’s company and had brought her skiing gear.

He even prepared ski gear for Xu Wendong, Nie Xiaoyu, and Ye Qingxin.

The four then briefly separated to change in the locker rooms before Xu Wendong carried his snowboard outside to meet up with Jiang Hongyi and the others.

Jiang Hongyi led them to the basic ski slope and taught them the skills and techniques of skiing.

Xu Wendong and Ye Qingxin both looked relaxed.

With their abilities, even without instruction, they could maneuver through the ski field seamlessly.

On the other hand, Nie Xiaoyu seemed quite nervous, diligently taking notes on Jiang Hongyi’s explanations.

”Have you noticed a few extras coming over?” Ye Qingxin asked while securing her snowboard to her feet, then looked at Xu Wendong.

”Just damn annoying!” Xu Wendong intended to enjoy himself with his woman but hadn’t expected some people wouldn’t let him have peace.

Though the other party hadn’t caused any trouble yet, the sudden appearance of five Grandmaster-level Experts clearly meant they came prepared.

As for who they were...

It was obvious—there couldn’t be anyone else but the Wu Family.

”You stay here and play with them. I’ll head over to the advanced ski slope!” Xu Wendong said to Ye Qingxin, then carried his snowboard towards the advanced slope.

He had to ensure the safety of Jiang Hongyi and Nie Xiaoyu.

Prevent anyone from causing harm.

On the way to the advanced ski slope, Xu Wendong clearly felt waves of killing intent, and he spotted the faces of those five middle-aged and elderly individuals in the crowd.

However, he pretended as if nothing had happened, reached the advanced slope, secured his snowboard to his feet, and started his performance.

He moved like a skiing champion, leaving people in awe wherever he went.

”For me, skiing is a piece of cake.”

”But for ordinary folks, getting to the advanced slope takes at least three to five years of hard practice!”

Seeing Xu Wendong race through the snow, the five Grandmaster-level experts geared up with their ski gear as well; they intended to kill Xu Wendong within the confines of the ski resort.

The basic and intermediate slopes were equipped with safety measures, with protective nets along the sides to prevent skiing accidents.

However, apart from a single ski path, the advanced slope lacked such protective measures.

As long as skiers didn’t take unnecessary risks, wandering into the uncharted snowfields wouldn’t pose any danger.

But Xu Wendong raced out of the ski resort, heading towards the distant quiet woods.

Luckily, he was a cultivator with power beyond the ordinary.

If it were a regular person, they would have paid a heavy price.

Because the woods were filled with many protruding boulders, and ordinary people wouldn’t have time to effectively dodge in such situations.

Yet,

This also sparked an inexplicable thrill in Xu Wendong, letting him experience the fun of skiing.

When he was about three or four kilometers away from the ski resort, Xu Wendong stopped, kicked a nearby boulder, shaking off the snow on it, and then took off his gear.

’Pop!’

He took out a pack of Dajiamen cigarettes and lit one. Just as he was finishing the cigarette, five figures swiftly approached from a distance and finally stopped abruptly in front of him.

”Ahhh!”

Xu Wendong exhaled a thick puff of smoke and asked indifferently, ”Why did you take so long to get here?”
