Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

”What shall we do?”

Xu Wendong’s mouth twitched. The news that he possessed the Three-Life Stone would likely be impossible to conceal, and if it got out, it would certainly be leaked.

How could he alone contend with the Da Yin Dynasty?

The most critical issue is that once the Da Yin Dynasty descends upon the Heavenly Nether Domain, it will likely incite a massacre.

At that time, the Heavenly Nether Domain will be turned into a living hell.

”Although I’m not a person of the Netherworld, nor of the Heavenly Nether Domain, if my actions lead to a massacre, it’s ultimately a karma burden.” Xu Wendong frowned.

He’s not a person with a heart of stone.

Having been in the Netherworld for so long, he has already established roots in the Heavenly Nether Domain.

So the thought of watching them be destroyed made Xu Wendong uneasy.

”Kid, if you want to avoid a disaster, you might need to harden your heart,” Painting Saint suddenly said.

”Please, senior, teach me!”

Xu Wendong immediately replied, knowing that as a Painting Saint, he surely had a solution.

”It’s simple, defect from the Heavenly Nether Sect, sever all ties with everything in the Heavenly Nether Domain, and then leave the Heavenly Nether Domain,” Painting Saint said calmly. ”There happens to be resentment in the Three-Life Stone, so you can act as if you’re overwhelmed by it and sever ties with everyone.”

On hearing this, Xu Wendong was stunned.

”You mean, I have to let go of everything?” Xu Wendong said in surprise, thinking of all the people he had come to know in the Heavenly Nether Domain. Must he simply abandon them?

Whether it’s Lin Yin from the Lin Family, or Senior Sister Li Jiayin, or Zhao Ying’er.

Do they all have to be abandoned directly?

”Without cutting ties, it’s hard to accomplish great things.” Painting Saint nodded solemnly.

To become strong, one is destined to give up certain things.

Once you have enough strength, you can reclaim everything; it’s not impossible.

”But...” Xu Wendong was somewhat helpless, his eyes full of reluctance, but Painting Saint interrupted him.

”Of course, you can also choose to leave by yourself. As for whether the Da Yin Dynasty will take action against the people of the Heavenly Nether Domain, you don’t have to care.”

Painting Saint did not force Xu Wendong.

After all, this is Xu Wendong’s dilemma. If it comes to it, he could just continue to sleep for a while.

The Painting Saint Carving Knife will eventually be wielded by someone else.

”Got it.” Xu Wendong nodded, making a firm decision.

”Since you’ve decided, I’ll let you awaken then.”

After saying this, Painting Saint immediately released his Divine Soul Power, helping Xu Wendong forcibly recover.

Soon, Xu Wendong opened his eyes.

He found himself in a cave, where Li Jiayin and the other women were present.

Their faces were full of worry, but now they showed expressions of delight at Xu Wendong’s awakening.

”Junior brother, you’re awake!” Li Jiayin said excitedly.

”Master! Boohoo, you scared me to death.” Zhu Xuan immediately rushed over, with her big eyes full of deep concern.

Zhao Ying’er said nothing, but her beautiful eyes betrayed her worry.

It was Loli who spoke from a distance: ”Finally awake. If you hadn’t woken up soon, I’d certainly have stripped you down to see if your thing still works. If it does, I’d use it once first to avoid losing its function later.”

Such bold remarks left Xu Wendong covered in embarrassment.

He sat up awkwardly, with Li Jiayin carefully supporting him.

”Sorry for making you all worry,” Xu Wendong said with a smile. ”By the way, how long until we can leave the Nether Ruins?”

”According to the timing, a few more days, I guess.”

”Are you planning to go out again? You’ve gained quite a bit this time, you should heal up properly. Once we return to the Sect, I’ll talk to my father. They’ll understand.”

Li Jiayin hurriedly tried to persuade him.

As the Sect Master’s disciple, Xu Wendong indeed needed to acquire more treasures for his master, which was an unwritten rule among the Three Great Sects of the Heavenly Nether Domain.

Every disciple has gone through this.

But given the current situation, Xu Wendong clearly couldn’t continue his adventures.

Xu Wendong felt touched, as Li Jiayin truly cared for him.

However, thinking about cutting all ties with Li Jiayin, he displayed a look of helplessness.

”Junior brother, are you hiding something from me?” Li Jiayin sharply sensed Xu Wendong’s mood and immediately asked curiously.

”No, no, I just thought of something.”

”Senior Sister, accompany me for a walk?”

Xu Wendong smiled, looking at the other ladies, who seemed eager to join.

”You all stay here. I’ll find you later.” After saying this, Xu Wendong followed Li Jiayin outside.

They’re currently still on the previous mountain, but now there aren’t many people. The disciples of both the Heavenly Nether Sect and Divine Yin Hall had left to seek their own fortunes.

”Junior brother, do you have something to tell me?”

Li Jiayin asked curiously.

She sensed something was amiss with Xu Wendong.

”Senior Sister, I want to spend some good time with you, but for the next few days, don’t ask too many questions, okay?” Xu Wendong smiled, holding Li Jiayin’s hand, as they stood quietly on the mountain peak.

The sunset in the Nether Ruins was particularly beautiful.

Xu Wendong stood before the sunset, quietly gazing at the dazzling glow.

This scene was etched into Li Jiayin’s mind.

She had a bad premonition, as if Xu Wendong was about to leave her.

”Senior Sister, one day I will leave you. Don’t doubt it, it’s just that my strength is lacking so I need to hide temporarily.” Xu Wendong suddenly said.

”Junior brother, are you planning to leave the Heavenly Nether Domain because of the Three-Life Stone Fragment?”

Li Jiayin’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, she urgently asked.

”You’ve obtained the Three-Life Stone Fragment, and this cannot be concealed. At that time, all major forces will come for it, and you won’t be able to resist.”

”Our Heavenly Nether Sect cannot bear the pressure for you, so you’re planning to leave, isn’t that right?”

Li Jiayin’s voice trembled. As the Heavenly Nether Sect’s senior sister, she was astute enough to understand Xu Wendong’s thoughts.

Now, Xu Wendong felt somewhat embarrassed.

Had his little scheme been seen through so quickly?

”Yes, I plan to ask you to help me put on an act. I want to betray the Heavenly Nether Sect and leave the Heavenly Nether Domain,” Xu Wendong took a deep breath and said firmly.

”I see.”

Li Jiayin nodded lightly. As a practitioner, she naturally understood the consequences of such actions.

No doubt, Xu Wendong would be branded a traitor forever.

”You’re not stopping me?” Xu Wendong was somewhat surprised at Li Jiayin’s reaction. Given her personality, she’d likely argue and disagree with him.

But this time, Li Jiayin was unexpectedly calm.

”How much time do we have left?” Li Jiayin asked.

”Once we’re out of the Nether Ruins, I’ll act against you, and you need to tell the Sect Master that I’ve betrayed the Heavenly Nether Sect, urging the whole sect to hunt me down.”

At these words, Li Jiayin’s face turned pale.

”If that’s the case, then let’s not separate these days.”

Li Jiayin said tremblingly.

She immediately rushed forward, under the sunset, her red lips fell on Xu Wendong’s face!
