Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Ye Qiu nodded solemnly, the gratitude in her eyes was beyond words.

After Hu Jie finished speaking, his slender fingers reached into his chest and took out a small yet exquisitely crafted storage bag.

The surface of this storage bag emitted a gentle glow, like stars twinkling in the night sky, exuding a mysterious aura.

”Inside are the two kinds of herbs I possess, keep them well,” Hu Jie’s voice was low and gentle, much like a refined gentleman.

Ye Qiu’s hands trembled slightly as she carefully received the storage bag, ”Hu Jie, thank you so much!”

She held the storage bag tightly, as if once she let go, hope would vanish in an instant.

Hu Jie’s lips curled into a warm smile like a breeze in spring, he shook his head lightly and said, ”No need to be so polite, since I promised to help you, I will give it my all.”

After speaking, he turned and walked to the side with steady steps.

His lips slightly parted, muttering incantations, his hands moving swiftly like shadows performing hand seals, a smooth and skilled motion.

In a flash, a brilliant light burst forth from his palm, like a shooting star piercing the night sky, speeding towards the distance.

This light carried his instructions, using the unique communication method of cultivators to contact his scattered friends across various places, inquiring about the whereabouts of the other four herbs.

However, at that moment on Dragon Suppressing Mountain, Ye Qiu and Hu Jie were completely unaware that the Cultivator Association in the provincial capital, like a beast lying in wait, had keenly sensed Ye Qiu’s actions in searching for herbs.

They also discovered that the Ye Family and Xu Wendong had long-standing ties.

In the eyes of the association’s upper echelons, anyone connected to Xu Wendong must pay a heavy price!

Thus, after a secret discussion, the upper echelons promptly decided to launch a series of fierce attacks against the Ye Family.

They hoped to use this opportunity to send a warning to others who might harbor similar intentions, achieving a deterrent effect.

In Qingyuan City.

The Ye Family’s assets plunged into an unexpected storm.

Several sizable companies under the Ye Family were maliciously besieged by business rivals in a matter of days.

These opponents seemed guided by experts, employing ruthless and precise tactics causing the Ye Family’s stock prices to plummet like a cliff, and orders to vanish like snowflakes.

Those who once called themselves friends with the Ye Family were now like fair-weather friends, turning their coats and siding with others.

In an instant, the once illustrious Ye Family seemed like a towering building on the verge of collapse!

All these changes seemed to be orchestrated by an invisible hand hidden in the darkness.

Upon learning of these successive changes, Mr. Ye’s timeworn face instantly clouded over, like the sky before a storm.

He sat solemnly in the living room’s Taishi Chair, his body trembling slightly, fists clenched tightly, knuckles whitening from the strain.

”What on earth is going on? Who is it that’s scheming behind our backs?” Mr. Ye’s voice was low and hoarse, but filled with anger and authority, echoing for a long time in the large living room.

The other members of the Ye Family and the company’s top leadership all looked grim, as if facing a great enemy.

They gathered in the conference hall, word by word, guessing the identity of the masterminds behind this.

Amidst the ongoing arguments, a man in his forties rushed in, gasping, his face full of terror: ”Second Master, it’s found out, it’s the Cultivator Association from the provincial capital ordering to eliminate our Ye Family!”

Upon hearing this, Mr. Ye was shaken to the core, like struck by a thunderbolt.

He couldn’t have imagined that the Cultivator Association would indeed take such a harsh hand against a worldly family like the Ye Family.

Yes.

If the Ye Family had helped Xu Wendong and faced retaliation from the Cultivator Association, he wouldn’t be this shocked.

But the problem is.

The Ye Family hasn’t helped Xu Wendong in any way!

Ye Qiu’s uncle also flew into a rage: ”The Cultivator Association truly goes too far, we clearly have severed ties with Xu Wendong, why must they eradicate us?”

The conference hall suddenly erupted.

Mr. Ye’s butler, an elderly man with graying hair but still vigorous, clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turning white, his voice trembling as he said, ”These cultivators, who usually claim to transcend worldly matters, now try to wipe us ordinary people out, is there no justice left?”

His eyes were full of anger and unwillingness, as if pouring out all the grievances he felt.

The younger generation of the Ye Family all shared the indignation.

Ye Qiu’s cousin, usually calm, couldn’t help but stand up now, striking his fist upon the chair’s armrest, gritting his teeth as he said: ”Our Ye Family has been diligent and law-abiding in Qingyuan City, we’ve never committed any atrocity, what right does the Cultivator Association have to act against us?”

”They’re abusing power, they’re nothing but thugs!”

Even Ye Qiu’s father, usually silent, couldn’t contain his anger at this moment.

He said coldly, gritting his teeth, ”I thought cultivators were supposed to be righteous, but it turns out they’re so unreasonable.”

”If they can’t give our Ye Family an explanation this time, even if it’s a fight to the death, we will not give up!” His voice was low and firm, with a determination to fight to the end.

Mr. Ye slowly closed his eyes, taking a deep breath, trying to calm the waves in his heart.

But his slightly trembling hands betrayed the anger and helplessness within him.

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes, revealing a steadfastness forged from enduring hardships: ”It seems our Ye Family can’t avoid this calamity.”

”But our Ye Family is not a lamb to the slaughter, if they leave us no way to live, then we’ll fight them!” Though his voice wasn’t loud, it was filled with authority, echoing in the large living room, making everyone present feel his resolve.

At this moment, the people of the Ye Family were filled with disappointment and anger towards the Cultivator Association.

They realized that the Cultivator Association, once mysterious and noble in their eyes, has now become their greatest enemy.

But they didn’t plan to sit and wait for death; instead, they decided to unite and fight against this mighty force together.

Even if the road ahead was fraught with thorns and full of unknown dangers.

Even if they die, they will die with dignity!

Die with a clear conscience!

Thinking of this, Mr. Ye took out his phone and dialed Ye Qiu’s number.

Soon, the call connected, and a familiar yet strangely foreign voice came through the receiver: ”Mr. Ye, is there something you need?”

Mr. Ye’s Adam’s apple moved, trembling as he said, ”Girl, grandpa was wrong...”
