Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Elder An Guang was completely flustered at this moment.

He knew well that offending Xu Wendong would have unimaginable consequences.

In the world of Heavenly Nether Sect where the strong are revered, a powerful Netherworld Talisman signifies formidable combat strength.

Now, Xu Wendong being a Fifth Grade Nether Talisman Master is undoubtedly a great temptation for Elder An Guang.

If he could befriend him and obtain the Netherworld Talismans he carved, his own strength would soar.

But if he offended Xu Wendong because of that fool Lou An, how could he expect to get precious Netherworld Talismans from him in the future?

”Master... you...” Lou An was dizzy from the beating, completely bewildered.

The disciples of the Punishment Hall were also dumbfounded, their mouths agape as if they could fit a chicken egg inside.

The situation changed too quickly; just now, Elder An Guang was making threats to arrest Xu Wendong, but within moments, he changed his face, faster than turning a book page.

”Hmph, Liu Hao is courting death, deserving a little punishment.”

”Lin Mo disciplining him is good fortune for him, does he actually want revenge?” Elder An Guang said coldly, his tone full of disdain.

He was calculating how to recover the situation; he must not let Xu Wendong develop a bad opinion of him.

”Master, we received three million Nether Crystals from the Liu Family.” Lou An, oblivious, directly reminded.

These words were like a boulder thrown into a lake, creating waves upon waves.

Li Jiayin and Xu Wendong heard it clearly, and Qi Lechun frowned as well.

Everyone suddenly understood that the Liu Family spent money to buy off Elder An Guang, no wonder they dared to blatantly arrest people.

Elder An Guang’s face darkened instantly, inwardly cursing Lou An for being a fool, revealing this at a critical moment.

”Shut up!” He lunged forward with swift movements like a leopard, grabbing Lou An by the neck with such force that he almost suffocated.

”What three million Nether Crystals? I have always been upright and incorruptible, never accepting bribes! Are you slandering your Master?”

”Lou An, I didn’t expect you to be so treacherous, throwing mud at me in front of everyone!” Elder An Guang spoke while glaring fiercely at Lou An, his eyes seemed like they could swallow him whole.

Everyone was silent, their gazes complex, filled with contempt, sympathy, and helplessness.

They all knew the truth, but none were willing to break this facade.

Lou An felt bitter, like a trapped beast with no escape.

He never thought he would become the scapegoat.

His throat was squeezed, making breathing difficult, his face reddening, eyes bulging with an intent to devour the world.

Woosh—

Lou An used all his strength to break free from Elder An Guang’s grip, disappearing in a flash to the distance.

Seeing this, the Punishment Hall disciples knew they couldn’t catch Xu Wendong today, exchanged glances, and left as if this place was plagued.

This farce came quickly and went quickly, leaving Elder An Guang with an awkward smile as stiff as a mask.

”Lin Mo, don’t listen to Lou An’s nonsense. I’ve never received any three million Nether Crystals.”

”I’m here today just to stop Lou An.” His voice was unnatural, his eyes evasive, not daring to meet Xu Wendong and Li Jiayin’s gaze.

”Is that so?” Li Jiayin asked coldly, her gaze like the cold moon on a winter’s night, her tone filled with displeasure.

To her, the elders of Heavenly Nether Sect being corrupted by the Liu Family made the Liu Family a cancer on the sect’s foundation.

”Since the misunderstanding is resolved, I naturally believe Elder An Guang.” Xu Wendong smiled, his smile as warm as spring sun.

He appeared magnanimous as if he didn’t care about what had just happened.

He knew well that Elder An Guang’s change in attitude was likely due to Qi Lechun saying something privately.

”Lin Mo, I heard you can carve Fifth Grade Netherworld Talismans?” Elder An Guang asked eagerly, his eyes full of anticipation like looking at a rare treasure.

”I want to purchase some Fifth Grade Netherworld Talismans from you, name your price, no matter how much, I’ll pay.” His voice was urgent; Fifth Grade Netherworld Talismans are extremely rare in the Heavenly Nether Domain and each appearance causes bloody conflicts.

To him, any amount of Nether Crystals is worth it.

”I don’t have Fifth Grade Netherworld Talismans.” Xu Wendong said calmly, his tone as serene as water.

Elder An Guang was taken aback, a trace of disappointment flickering in his eyes.

He looked at Qi Lechun, who nodded slightly, indicating for him to relax.

Qi Lechun’s eyes carried a hint of mystery, as if telling him things aren’t that simple.

”I only have this kind of Fourth Grade Netherworld Talisman.” Xu Wendong slowly pulled out Gold Chaos.

As the talisman appeared, mysterious light seemed to blossom in the air.

Elder An Guang was stunned, as if turned to stone.

With a single glance, he felt the endless murder within the talisman, like a beast in the dark, ready to tear the enemy apart at any time.

He marveled inwardly, once this talisman is used, even he must avoid its edge.

”This is a Fourth Grade Netherworld Talisman? It’s close to Fifth Grade!” Elder An Guang exclaimed, his voice full of admiration.

No wonder Qi Lechun cautioned not to offend Xu Wendong.

He now had a deeper understanding of Xu Wendong’s strength and was more determined to ally with him.

”Elder An Guang, if you need, you can bring some Fourth-grade Talisman Paper, I’ll carve for free.” Xu Wendong said with a playful glint in his eyes.

He wasn’t simply generous, but had his own calculations.

Fourth-grade Talisman Paper is rare; he needs a lot to practice the carving technique of Gold Chaos.

Elder An Guang coming to him was just the solution he needed.

Improving skills while obtaining talisman paper, why not?

”Lin Mo, I didn’t misjudge you!” Elder An Guang laughed excitedly, his laughter hearty, releasing his inner joy.

”Great, I’ll get Fourth-grade Talisman Paper right away. Don’t worry, I know the drill: three sheets for one Netherworld Talisman, I’ll bear the loss.”

He rubbed his hands, his face brimming with satisfaction.

He knew well, once having Gold Chaos, his position in the Heavenly Nether Sect would greatly elevate, possibly emerging among the Eight Great Elders, becoming respected.

”I want it too! Lin Mo young friend, I’ll also get Fourth-grade Talisman Paper for you. How about carving me some Netherworld Talismans?” Qi Lechun couldn’t wait to speak, eyes filled with longing.

He had deep research in the Nether Talisman Dao; understanding Gold Chaos’ runes might allow him to step into the ranks of Fifth Grade Nether Talisman Masters.

For him, this was an opportunity not to miss.

The two elders eyed Xu Wendong’s Gold Chaos like hungry wolves locking onto prey.

Xu Wendong smiled slightly, eyes flashing cunningly.

He was worried about Fourth-grade Talisman Paper; these elders were prestigious in Heavenly Nether Sect, wealthy; if he could obtain paper through them, the problem would be solved.

”Both elders value me so much, I’ll carve Netherworld Talismans for free then.”

”However, you must provide the talisman paper.” Xu Wendong’s smile was warm, his tone sincere, his manner respectful but generous.
