Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 467: Chapter 337: Born to Be Alluring

”Your face suffered the most severe burns, and it was treated the latest. It will take another month before it can be unveiled,” Wu Zhong said coldly.

This man, except for the first day when he spoke a few words, had been rigid and aloof in the past few days as Ye Lingyue’s Primordial Power was recovering, looking forbidding and unapproachable.

Ye Lingyue touched her face and couldn’t be bothered to argue with him.

”Your face might change a bit after this time,” Wu Zhong glanced at her and said slowly.

”Change?” Despite not caring much about her looks, Ye Lingyue still felt somewhat nervous upon hearing this.

”Anyway, you are already ugly; getting uglier won’t make much of a difference,” Wu Zhong continued with his venomous tongue.

”Get lost!” Annoyed, Ye Lingyue grabbed a handful of snow and, without aiming, threw it at Wu Zhong.

Wu Zhong dodged with a laugh, infuriating Ye Lingyue so much that she stomped her foot and stopped paying attention to him, stomping down the mountain.

Watching her retreating figure, Wu Zhong followed leisurely with a trace of deep thought flashing in his eyes.

Her face... Why had it changed to look like that? Could it really just be the effect of the Nirvana Heart Lotus?

There’s no denying that Ye Lingyue was naturally a beautiful woman.

But that was it; among the women Wu Zhong had seen, she wasn’t the most beautiful. Even Xue Pianran was slightly more beautiful than Ye Lingyue. However, without a doubt, she was the only one who made Wu Zhong feel she was different from others.

But, that was the Ye Lingyue of before.

That night... a heat rose from the bottom of Wu Zhong’s heart.

The woman curled beneath him was like a different person.

The face was still the same, yet it seemed different.

After consuming the Nirvana Heart Lotus, the changes in Ye Lingyue weren’t just skin-deep.

She seemed reborn, every facial feature, her skin, her voice—everything was captivating and shaking one’s soul.

She was born with a beguiling charm, and every frown and smile was laced with an allure that drew in souls, making one unconsciously sink into it.

Wu Zhong remembered the passionate face under the moonlight that day, just one glance at her breathtakingly beautiful demeanor made his soul tremble.

She was like a captivating demon or a seductive fox.

Even she herself might not have realized it yet.

Thinking that soon she would go to Beiqing to spend day and night with that good-for-nothing Feng Xun, Wu Zhong’s heart felt uncomfortably restless.

Why should he, who was so pent up that he could hardly bear it, not touch her, while Feng Xun could openly spend time with her?

He couldn’t let Feng Xun get such an advantage for nothing. Turning her into a ”rice dumpling,” Wu Zhong unconsciously twisted his mouth into a smile, quickening his pace, following Ye Lingyue like a shadow.

It wasn’t until she had descended the mountain that Ye Lingyue realized Wu Zhong had brought her to the base of a snowy mountain.

Looking out from the base of the mountain, there was a Snow Plain all around, with no roads or houses in sight, leaving her clueless about her location for the moment.

”We’re at Divine Fall River. The Ice Lake here can dissolve the medicine in your body. That night, in a hurry, I brought you here. This place is north of the Xixia Plain and it would take about two days,” Wu Zhong explained, already standing behind her.

Of course, two days was the time it would take for Ye Lingyue to travel. That night, in his anxiousness, he brought her here in at most two hours.

”Sister Cai’er and the others are still in Yan City. I need to hurry back and head to Beiqing,” Ye Lingyue had just finished speaking when Wu Zhong sneered.

”With your lackluster skills, you dare to go to Beiqing? Don’t forget what I told you before—if I’m not satisfied, you can’t go anywhere.” As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and picked up Ye Lingyue like an eagle catching a chicken.

Ye Lingyue suddenly remembered back in Yan City No.9, Wu Zhong seemed to say that her martial skills were too poor, and he needed to ’train’ her.

Ye Lingyue wanted to yell, but suddenly she remembered something and quietly shut her mouth.

Although Wu Zhong’s character isn’t much to speak of, there’s no denying that he’s very strong.

Not to mention anything else, even the Corrosive Soul Chain used by the already dead Zhan Feng was taught by Wu Zhong.

This man, far too young with too many secrets, even Ye Lingyue, bearer of the Qian Cauldron, couldn’t help but feel inferior.

Not many in this world could catch his eye and be worthy of his mentorship.

Thinking of the upcoming journey to Beiqing, Ye Lingyue could only suppress her frustrations, allowing Wu Zhong to whisk her away over the Divine Fall River.

Only when they reached an open expanse on the Snow Plain did Wu Zhong stop.

With a flick of his hand, Ye Lingyue landed steadily on the ground.

Wu Zhong’s face, now devoid of its earlier wickedness, was a mask of ice-cold resolve.

At this moment, he had reverted to the decisive and deadly Ghost Emperor.

”Use all your Martial Arts and attack me. Don’t worry, I won’t strike back,” Wu Zhong snorted through his nose.

Not fight back, just attack as I please?

When Ye Lingyue heard this, she thought she must have heard wrong.

She rolled her eyes.

”And what if you do strike back?”

Seeing the eager light shining in the pitch-black eyes of Ye Lingyue, Wu Zhong couldn’t help but smile faintly.

”If I strike back, I’ll teach you a Cultivation Technique.”

A Cultivation Technique from Wu Zhong?

Her gaze fixed on Wu Zhong’s cold golden mask, itching to have a go at him.

Unlike Ye Lingyue’s grimacing, Wu Zhong’s expression remained flat and undisturbed as he glanced at her.

Suddenly, Ye Lingyue sprang into action.

She had already changed into her own clothes, wearing a narrow Cloud Brocade robe with Yuehua flowing patterns, and as her movement technique stirred, a vigorous Primordial Power surged towards Wu Zhong. Almost simultaneously, her spiritual power attack followed suit.

Wu Zhong merely lifted his eyelids.

He didn’t move an inch underfoot, just slightly swaying his upper body.

Ye Lingyue found the space before her empty; Wu Zhong had already dodged her dual assault.

But quickly, Ye Lingyue exhaled softly, her wrist twisting as she produced the Star Saliva Dagger in her hand. Multiple gleams of the dagger danced as countless fingertip shadows burst forth from her fingers.

She had launched her most powerful offensive in one swift movement.

Seeing Ye Lingyue’s ferocious attack, Wu Zhong immediately smiled. With a slight movement of his sleeve, an invisible barrier shielded him, effortlessly turning her attack into nothingness.

Wu Zhong dodged multiple Martial Arts techniques from Ye Lingyue without so much as a twitch of an eyelid. With eighteen Yan Cities under his control, Wu Zhong’s knowledge of world Martial Arts was exceedingly vast.

He could immediately recognize most Martial Arts.

However, he had never seen the method Ye Lingyue used with the Star Saliva before.

”I’m not fighting anymore,” said Ye Lingyue, somewhat deflated.

She suddenly realized that the Martial Arts she had worked so hard to learn were nothing in front of Wu Zhong, a monster of a man.

This feeling of a baby fighting an adult left her utterly disheartened.

”Are you upset?” Wu Zhong chuckled lightly, just about to step forward, but at that moment...
