Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 867: Chapter 736: Identity Exposed

Monk Nan Jiu sighed; although Great Elder Chang Luo’s life was saved, I’m afraid his body is already ruined.

If An Qiniang finds out later, she will surely be furious.

Ye Lingyue and the Hunyuan Sect will be at odds till death.

”Master Nan Jiu, thank you for your assistance. I will always remember your kindness,” Ye Lingyue’s expression softened slightly, and she forced a smile.

”Friend Ye, there’s no need to be polite. We are fated to meet, and your brewed wine is unparalleled. Are you interested in becoming a disciple of this monk?” Monk Nan Jiu, seeing that Ye Lingyue had just fought a major battle and still had clarity of mind, realized she was insightful and capable of letting go.

He had drifted around the Qing Province Continent like a duckweed for decades and had never met such a young person with a Wisdom Root. His heart stirred with the thought of taking her as a disciple.

”Does Namo Mountain also accept female disciples?” Ye Lingyue glanced at the monk’s robe Nan Jiu wore.

How could she have heard that Namo Mountain produced monks, and the Yaochi Immortal Pavilion produced ”nuns.”

”Friend, don’t misunderstand. Namo Mountain, although Buddhist, has both Inner Sect and lay disciples, and there are female disciples among the laymen. As a monk, I’m a guise, and naturally, I only accept lay disciples,” laughed Monk Nan Jiu.

”Thank you for your regard, Master, but I am a free spirit, incompatible with Buddhism, and have no interest in joining the Three Sects. Please remember our prior agreement, and we shall meet again at the World’s First Refining.” Although Ye Lingyue had only met Nan Jiu a few times, she genuinely liked the old monk who drank wine and ate meat.

Unfortunately, after the Rift Valley Sand River and Demon Awakening Gate events, she had no goodwill toward the Three Sects.

Moreover, she discovered Feng Xun was missing, felt anxious, and was in no mood to deal with Monk Nan Jiu.

Seeing this, Monk Nan Jiu didn’t insist further and bid farewell.

”Where did Feng Xun go?” Ye Lingyue checked on Long Baobao and a few small beasts, all with minor injuries. After simple treatment, Feng Xun was nowhere to be seen, leaving Ye Lingyue with an uneasy feeling.

”He was here earlier. Then he told us to save Long Baobao, and he disappeared.” Little Wuya was also puzzled. Miss Feng clearly said he would come to rescue the boss.

”You all go back to the inn to rest. I’ll go find him.” Ye Lingyue suppressed the strange feeling that suddenly arose in her heart and sent the small beasts back.

After the battle ended, there were still many injured on the street.

Ye Lingyue searched the surroundings but found no trace of Feng Xun.

She took out the Phoenix Token from her bosom, held it tightly, bit her lip, and quickly walked towards the inn where An Qiniang and others stayed.

In the inn, Yue Mei had already woken up.

After waking, she was informed that Great Elder Chang Luo was critically injured, so she invited ”Elder Ying” over to check on his wounds.

Die Mei, disguised as Elder Ying, had no choice but to muster the courage to examine Great Elder Chang Luo.

”The great elder’s injury is not life-threatening, but...but...” Die Mei coughed.

Even though she had seen many men, she had never encountered an injury in such a place before. Poor thing, Great Elder Chang Luo’s happiness in the latter half of his life was over.

”But what, go on!” Ignoring his burns, Great Elder Chang Luo urgently grabbed Die Mei’s hand.

An Qiniang’s gaze was as sharp as a knife, scraping towards Chang Luo’s hand.

Die Mei quickly withdrew her hand, maintaining a serious demeanor.

”That part of the great elder was completely charred. Although it has been excised, I’m afraid it will no longer function in a humanly way.”

”You little beast, you’ve ruined me! I’ll go fight him to the death!” Although Great Elder Chang Luo had expectations about his injury, hearing it confirmed by ”Elder Ying” made him feel as though his insides were being twisted by a knife.

”Chang Luo, you deserve this,” An Qiniang didn’t get angry but instead laughed, her gaze sweeping between Great Elder Chang Luo and ”Elder Ying.”

All inside the room were shocked, while Die Mei awkwardly looked away, thinking how unlucky she was to be caught up in others’ trouble. She’s innocent, damn it. The one involved with your impotent person is still in the Earth Evil Prison, damn it.

”You really think I wouldn’t know about the filthy things you’ve done over the years? You and this vile woman had a daughter. If you can’t keep it in check, what use is there to have it? Better off being half-disabled. Don’t worry, didn’t you always love women? When you return to the Hunyuan Sect, I’ll find you a dozen beautiful female disciples to serve you obediently,” finished An Qiniang, gently stroking the wounds on Great Elder Chang Luo.

Suddenly applying pressure, the great elder let out a scream, and the previously bandaged wound immediately tore open.

Chen Mu was visibly shaken, cautiously glancing at Yue Mei.

But Yue Mei’s gaze shifted slightly, looking deeply at Chen Mu.

”Qi Niang, Qi Niang, I was wrong. I’ll never dare again,” Great Elder Chang Luo cried bitterly.

It turned out that An Qiniang had long known of his misdeeds over the years. She had simply turned a blind eye. Despite her ugly appearance and fierce temperament, she had always been devoted to Great Elder Chang Luo.

Without a mother to guide her from childhood, her illiterate nurse-aunt always told her that an ugly woman should have a kind heart and that, if she focused her thoughts on supporting her husband, one day, Great Elder Chang Luo would come around.

Sadly, she was profoundly wrong. What had all these years of endurance gotten her!

”Mistress, Master realizes his mistake. Master is now seriously injured; please send him back to the sect quickly,”

Chen Mu shivered with fear, An Qiniang’s ruthlessness making him wonder if Yue Mei would treat him similarly in the future.

”Mumu, what are you talking about? Mistress was just joking with your master. But you’re right. His injuries are severe. Please send him back to the Hunyuan Sect and tell the sect leader that in a few days, I’ll personally bring Ye Lingyue to the Hunyuan Sect,” An Qiniang wiped her hands with an indifferent look.

Chen Mu did not dare to ask more, immediately instructing a few junior brothers to prepare a stretcher and promptly sending Great Elder Chang Luo out of the city.

Yue Mei and Elder Ying didn’t stay either and left swiftly.

An Qiniang, with a wooden face, took out a spiritual tablet of An Yang and placed it on the table, lighting only a single incense stick.

By this time, darkness had completely fallen outside.

An Qiniang sat cross-legged, having expended significant energy during the day fighting Ye Lingyue and clashing with Nan Jiu.

As she closed her eyes, something felt amiss. She snapped her head up and saw an unfamiliar silhouette in the room.

Having reached her level of cultivation, An Qiniang did not keep lamps lit in the room at night, having grown unaccustomed to it during meditation.

She had no idea when this person entered, sending a chill to her heart as she demanded in a firm voice, ”Who are you?”
