The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 990: Stop!
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Stop!”

Elder Qiu’s expression was crazed and pale.

“You should know how important the Netherworld River is to me. Are you really going to sit back and do nothing?” she asked frantically as she looked at the three elders beside her.

“I will bear any consequences of what happens today! I hope that you three elders will give me a hand on account of our past friendship!”

The three elders also noticed that Ye Chen was plundering the Netherworld River. They hesitated for a few seconds before forcing out drops of blood essence.

Their blood essence collided and turned into a blood mist that enveloped Elder Qiu’s entire body.

Elder Qiu’s lips curled into a smile. Her strength had now increased to the middle-stage of the Supreme Emperor realm!

Her eyes were filled with madness, and her entire body was emitting crimson light. Her figure then flashed as she dashed toward Ye Chen!

“Little b*stard, you’re still trying to plunder my Netherworld River? You’re courting death!”

In an instant, the world changed color, and the wind and clouds surged.

It was as if the connection between heaven and earth had been completely cut off!

This sudden change made Ye Chen’s heart tremble violently, and he tried to stop absorbing the Netherworld River so that he could respond to the attack, but the evil dragon bead would not stop!

He could not dodge, nor could he block!

The violent attack swept through the sky as if it wanted to devour Ye Chen alive.

“Damn it!”

Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed as he roared loudly. He could sense how terrifying this sword strike was. If it hit him, he was dead meat!

This sword strike was like the scythe of the Grim Reaper, opening the door to hell!

Ye Chen felt the blood in his body freeze, and he could not help but tremble. This was perhaps the first time in Ye Chen’s life that he had felt such fear.

Death? At this moment, it was right in front of Ye Chen!

“Stop it!”

Ye Chen roared, but the evil dragon bead did not respond at all. It was still absorbing the Netherworld River!

F*ck!

Ye Chen was furious!

Elder Qiu saw that Ye Chen did not stop even though he was about to die. She laughed coldly. “What a reckless little b*stard. I believe that you’ve had some good opportunities. Today, they will all be mine. Die!”

Just as the tip of the sword was about to pierce Ye Chen’s chest, a sudden change occurred…

A gust of wind swept over from the depths of the Holy Herb Valley!

“Stop!”

An aged voice suddenly rang out.

Hearing this voice, everyone’s expression changed!

The sect master had come out of seclusion!

Within moments, an old woman in a long robe with eight trigrams appeared in front of Ye Chen in an instant.

She extended two fingers and caught Elder Qiu’s sword!

All of the power disappeared! It was as if it had been completely absorbed by a sponge!

Elder Qiu’s eyes widened as she looked at the person blocking her way. Her voice trembled as she asked, “Sect Master, why are you here? Weren’t you in seclusion?”

“Hmph!” The old woman snorted coldly, “If I didn’t appear now, the plan that I’ve prepared for countless years would have been ruined by a piece of trash like you!”

As soon as she finished speaking, the old woman’s two fingers erupted with power, and a destructive force swept out.

Kacha!

The sword turned into dust, and a violent shockwave smashed fiercely onto Elder Qiu’s body!

Elder Qiu spat out a mouthful of blood and flew out before crashing heavily onto the ground, seriously injured!

Seeing this scene, the remaining three elders and all of the surrounding female cultivators lowered their heads and knelt down.

“Greetings, Sect Master!”

The old woman ignored them. She glanced at Ye Chen, who was still absorbing the Netherworld River, and the blood dragon that was circling around him. Her eyes narrowed slightly.

Then, she suddenly turned around and placed her hands behind her back.

“From today onward, Elder Qiu Yun will be expelled from the Holy Herb Valley. Also, the other three elders will be demoted and stripped of their authority as elders!”

The moment these words were uttered, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air!

No one had expected that the sect master would expel Elder Qiu Yun because of an outsider!

She even demoted the status of the remaining three!

“Luo?” The old woman’s gaze fell on Luo. “Luo, did you bring this person here?”

“Yes, Master. I just…” Luo’s expression was a little flustered, as she was afraid of being blamed.

The old woman nodded with a pleased expression. “From today onward, anyone who dares to bully you will be expelled from the Holy Herb Valley! Previously, I didn’t dare to protect you too much because I was afraid that it might affect the overall plan. However, today, the person I was waiting for has finally appeared, so there’s no need to worry about anything else!”

“Master, is Mr. Ye really the person you’re looking for?” Luo’s eyes welled up with tears when she heard this.

The old woman’s gaze fell on Ye Chen. The Hell’s Eye on Ye Chen’s forehead had already closed, and the Netherworld River had been completely absorbed.

Although Ye Chen did not know how to use it, the power of the Netherworld River, when combined with the evil dragon bead, was absolutely terrifying, and would become one of his most powerful trump cards.

The old woman smiled and said to Ye Chen, “If I’m not wrong, your name should be Ye Chen. Not only do you control a Blood Dragon, but you also are linked with reincarnation, right?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen’s expression suddenly turned horrified. The fact that this old woman knew that his name was not strange.

What was strange was the word ‘reincarnation’!

Did she know about the Samsara Graveyard?

At this moment, Ye Chen’s killing intent rose.

The Samsara Graveyard was his biggest secret. If the existence of such a heaven-defying item was revealed, everyone would come after him, driven by greed.

Regardless of the situation, he had to kill anyone who found out!

Naturally, the old woman sensed Ye Chen’s murderous intent and smiled. “Little brother, don’t overthink things. This is not the place to talk. Would you like to come with me inside? I’ll naturally help you resolve some of your doubts.”

“Alright.” Ye Chen withdrew his murderous intent and nodded.

He knew very well that it was impossible for him to overcome an expert of this old woman’s strength at his current level. His senses all warned him that she was extremely dangerous.

Ten minutes later, the two of them arrived at a large hall. The old woman waved his arm, and the door closed. The formation in the hall was activated…

It was a natural concealment formation!

Not only were experts unable to see the situation inside, even the Heavenly Dao could not spy on them!

How heaven-defying!

The old woman narrowed her eyes and brewed a cup of tea for Ye Chen. With a wave of her arm, the tea floated in front of Ye Chen.

Ye Chen reached out and grabbed the teacup. He took a sip and went straight to the point. “I heard from Luo that you were waiting for me?”

This was the question that had been bugging him the most.

The old woman smiled and casually made a grabbing motion with her hand. Then, the ground in the middle of the hall actually shook, and seconds later, a stone tablet suddenly appeared, rising from the ground.

The stone tablet was engraved with ancient words and symbols that Ye Chen could not recognize. However, this was not the important bit.

This was because the material the stone tablet was made of was exactly the same as the tombstones in the Samsara Graveyard!
