Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 866: Chapter 735: The Few Days’ Pact

The ancient and long Buddha chant echoed, completely different from when Ye Lingyue used the Little Infinite Finger earlier.

Immediately, a Buddha’s name ”Wan” resounded as if descending from the void.

The pronunciation was clear, as if containing infinite power, and ”Wan” swirled into people’s hearts, immediately clearing their minds.

An Qiniang’s body trembled slightly, and the Divine Power Restriction was broken by this Buddha’s chant.

Ye Lingyue immediately felt her arms and legs regain their senses.

Nan Jiu was still in his bright yellow kasaya, but his eyes were clear and bright, filled with endless wisdom.

He walked through the void and saluted An Qiniang.

Namo Mountain’s Nan Jiu, rumored as the foremost under the Sect Leader of Namo Mountain, a Buddhist expert on the Qing Province Continent, who had reached the One-step Divine Power Realm in middle age.

An Qiniang never expected to encounter Nan Jiu here.

No matter how domineering the Hunyuan Sect was, it was ultimately just one of the Nine Sects, still quite inferior compared to the Three Sects.

This point was evident when An Qiniang’s Divine Power Restriction was broken by just one move from Nan Jiu.

”Master Nan Jiu, what do you mean by this?”

”An Qiniang, this young girl is fated with our Buddhist sect, and I as a monk cannot sit idly by.”

Nan Jiu originally intended to save Ye Lingyue due to a cup of Vermilion Fruit Wine, and happened to witness her use the Little Infinite Finger when he arrived.

The Little Infinite Finger, though a martial art of the Buddhist Sect, Namo Mountain was the orthodox in Buddhism.

The Buddhist Sect, one of the Nine Sects, was also a branch of Namo Mountain.

Though Ye Lingyue’s Finger technique was improved, the vast Buddha Energy was vaguely seen in it, which greatly impressed Nan Jiu.

This further strengthened Nan Jiu’s determination to protect Ye Lingyue.

In his mind, Ye Lingyue possessed Buddha Nature, and if enlightened, could be admitted to Namo Mountain’s sect.

”She killed my nephew first and injured my husband later. If I let her go just like this, how can I stand on the mainland in the future?” An Qiniang feared Nan Jiu’s power, but recalling An Yang’s death and Chang Luo’s condition, her resentment was hard to dissolve.

”Amitabha, foes should be reconciled rather than antagonized. I, as a monk, am returning a favor to you.” Saying this, Nan Jiu called out the Chong Treasure, which landed beside Great Elder Chang Luo.

The blue Star Fire on Chang Luo’s body was like a wildfire, continuous and unstoppable; had it not been for his great power, his fate would have been dire.

Chong Treasure glanced at the disfigured Great Elder Chang Luo, full of disdain in its eyes.

Yet, for the sake of Nan Jiu, it reluctantly twisted its worm body.

The antenna on its head emitted a shimmer of water, and the light fell on Great Elder Chang Luo, extinguishing the Star Fire instantly.

It turned out that the Wine God Worm Treasure held the Water Spirit, capable of extinguishing all fires.

”Thank you, Master Nan Jiu.” Seeing that Great Elder Chang Luo had survived, An Qiniang’s expression relaxed slightly, though she still harbored resentment, unwilling to settle.

”My husband’s matter can be put aside for now, but I must avenge An Yang’s blood. Ye Lingyue and that little ghost claimed a life and stole An Yang’s Four Directions Token. It’s life for life; at least one of them must be handed over. Otherwise, I will fight to the death for justice.”

”This...” Nan Jiu looked at Ye Lingyue.

”I’m the one who killed. One must be responsible for one’s deeds. However, if you want my life, I’m afraid it’s not that easy. It depends if you have enough leverage.” Ye Lingyue gestured, and the Cannibal Flower Qiu Tian landed beside her, along with Little Wuya, Long Baobao, Little Zhiyo, and Little Corpse retreating back.

”Mistress, Yue Mei was swallowed by that Strange Flower,” Chen Mu said anxiously.

”Master Nan Jiu, you see, this little girl is outrageous, even daring to seize the cherished disciple of the Yaochi Immortal Pavilion Master. If you really want to protect her, are you not afraid of the Pavilion Master causing trouble at Namo Mountain?” An Qiniang gleefully said.

”The Yaochi Immortal Pavilion’s Yue Mei?” Monk Nan Jiu was even more troubled upon hearing this.

He realized that for a cup of wine, he had truly boarded a pirate ship.

”An Qiniang, no need for all this scheming and mischief. I was wrong to kill An Yang, but injuring Chang Luo and capturing Yue Mei, I was forced into it. If not for your aggressive approach, why would I have taken such actions? I, Ye Lingyue, belong to no faction and fear neither the seen nor the unseen.” Ye Lingyue implied she was ready to meet force with force.

”Friend Ye, what do you mean by this? Could it be you genuinely wish to fight to the death with the Hunyuan Sect and Yaochi Immortal Pavilion? Don’t you want to participate in the World’s First Forging? A step back opens up a vast new world. Ultimately, this is Sifang City; both parties have violated its rules. If the Sifang City Lord is alerted, this matter might not end well.” Monk Nan Jiu advised earnestly.

Entering the Demon Awakening Gate without permission was a grave crime, affecting both the Hunyuan Sect and Ye Lingyue alike.

An Yang was dead, but Chen Mu was also involved in the intrusion of the Demon Awakening Gate.

”Master Nan Jiu, I can release Yue Mei, but I have one condition: until the end of the final rounds of the World’s First Forging, An Qiniang and the Hunyuan Sect must not cause any more trouble. After the World’s First Forging, I will properly compete with An Qiniang again. At that time, she can repay blood with blood, a tooth for a tooth,” Ye Lingyue stated firmly.

”Ha, what arrogance,” An Qiniang sneered.

If not for Nan Jiu’s appearance, she would have already captured the girl.

”Or are you, An Qiniang, afraid of waiting a few days, thinking you might lose to me?” Ye Lingyue provoked.

”Nonsense, would I, an old lady, be afraid of a little girl like you? After the final rounds, I’ll be waiting for you,” An Qiniang retorted, refusing to believe a match at the World’s First Forging could turn the tide for Ye Lingyue.

”Sister Yue?” Long Baobao looked worriedly at Ye Lingyue.

”It’s okay,” Ye Lingyue patted Long Baobao’s head.

A few days could indeed change a lot of things.

After this World’s First Forging, Long Baobao might very well become the disciple of the Sifang City Lord. With the City Lord’s protection, he would be safe.

And she would also exert all her efforts to forge a true Heavenly grade Divine Weapon—the Nine Dragon Chant—in the World’s First Forging.

With the Divine Weapon’s assistance, she might have a slim chance to battle An Qiniang.

An Qiniang was unreasonable, but trustworthy in her words. If she promised not to disturb Ye Lingyue and others for the next few days, she truly would not.

Seeing her agree, Ye Lingyue summoned her Divine Sense, instructing Little Qiu Tian to release Yue Mei.

With a ”pop,” Little Qiu Tian spat out the unconscious Yue Mei.

Chen Mu hurriedly helped Yue Mei up.

”Master Nan Jiu, I will take my leave now, but I hope next time you refrain from interfering,” An Qiniang said, huffing as she looked at the injured Chang Luo and the disheveled Chen Mu and Yue Mei, then waved her hand to have Chang Luo supported and immediately left.
