Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1027: Chapter 87: Envoys from the Divine Realm Arrive

The guard commander hesitated for a moment after hearing this, but ultimately could not resist the influence of the ”Bewildering Drum.”

”Heavenly Gang Bamboo is a specialty of the Heavenly Gang Palace. It contains rich Fire Spirit, making it an excellent material for refining artifacts and elixirs across various worlds, being able to enhance an alchemist’s spiritual sparks grade.”

”And besides that?”

Ye Lingyue had known this for a long time.

However, Ye Lingyue didn’t believe that simply being able to enhance spiritual sparks was reason enough for so many Heavenly Gang Warriors to protect it heavily.

The guard commander hesitated visibly, clearly knowing something, but there was a subconscious reluctance to speak.

Ye Lingyue raised an eyebrow and struck the Bewildering Drum a few more times.

The guard commander continued.

”Another use of Heavenly Gang Bamboo is for weapon forging. By adding Heavenly Gang Bamboo to ore, the grade of the resulting spiritual artifact can be improved. With an alchemist of the Fang Immortal Level, the Thousand-year-old Heavenly Gang Bamboo can even be used to refine the Slaughter God Arrow that can slay a Divine Sovereign. But Thousand-year-old Heavenly Gang Bamboo is extremely rare, and Fang Immortal Level alchemists are also few and far between, even in the Divine Realm.”

An arrow that can slay a Divine Sovereign?

Ye Lingyue was astonished. Ever since subduing the Hunyuan Ancestor, she had learned a bit about matters in the Divine Realm.

For instance, above the Main God is the Divine Sovereign. The Northern Territory Divine Sovereign, mentioned earlier by the Heavenly Gang Palace Master and the Hunyuan Ancestor, was one such.

But isn’t the Tiankui Palace Master merely a minor Sub Main God, inferior even to a Main God? Could he possibly be thinking of using Heavenly Gang Bamboo against a Divine Sovereign Level being?

Ye Lingyue pondered, unable to understand the reasoning, but then she suddenly thought of her own Yi God’s Void-breaking Bow.

Since acquiring the Heavenly-grade Spiritual Treasure Yi God’s Void-breaking Bow, she hadn’t used it much. Apart from her personal dislike for using bows and arrows, another significant reason was that she never found suitable materials to refine the Yi God Void-breaking Arrow.

The previous Yi God Void-breaking Arrows she had were only three, and they were all used up.

Afterwards, Ye Lingyue tried various materials, but none matched the power of the Yi God Void-breaking Arrow, and over time, she shelved the Yi God’s Void-breaking Bow.

Little did she know that Heavenly Gang Bamboo had such a function.

Unfortunately, it requires an alchemist of the Fang Immortal Level to refine it, and it must be Thousand-year-old Heavenly Gang Bamboo.

The patch of Heavenly Gang Bamboo Ye Lingyue saw earlier was only a few hundred years old at most.

However, Ye Lingyue reconsidered; although she couldn’t temporarily refine the Slaughter God Arrow, it didn’t mean she couldn’t refine an arrow slightly inferior to it.

Without needing to slay a Divine Sovereign, if she could refine something that could threaten Main God Level enemies with her current Fang Venerate Level artifact refining skills, the Slaughter God Arrow could already serve as one of her major weapons.

Thinking of this, Ye Lingyue was secretly delighted.

”Answer my second question: what’s the relationship between the Northern Territory Divine Sovereign and your palace master?”

”I don’t know. I only know that this patch of Heavenly Gang Bamboo was bestowed upon the palace master by the Northern Territory Divine Sovereign’s Divine Consort.”

That was the extent of what the guard commander knew. As a guard commander, he naturally couldn’t have contact with figures like the Divine Sovereign, and even the uses of Heavenly Gang Bamboo were something he unintentionally learned when the Tiankui Palace Master boasted about it to other palace masters from the Heavenly Gang Palace.

The Northern Territory Divine Consort?

Ye Lingyue was suddenly taken aback, recalling that the Hunyuan Ancestor had also mentioned the Divine Consort when attempting to harm her earlier... Just as Ye Lingyue was about to ask more questions, she suddenly heard footsteps approaching.

Ye Lingyue’s expression changed, and she quickly patted the back of the guard commander and hid the ”Bewildering Drum” in her hand.

In the blink of an eye, the guard commander’s previously dazed expression gradually returned to clarity.

He just couldn’t remember what Ye Lingyue had interrogated him about earlier.

”What are you doing here?”

It was Hunyuan Ancestor and the Tiankui Palace Master who had arrived.

They were chatting and laughing until they saw Ye Lingyue and the guard commander standing together alone, arousing Tiankui Palace Master’s suspicions.

”Palace Master, this young lady said she was lost, and I intended to escort her back.”

The guard commander reported truthfully.

”How shameful, bringing disgrace to an old man’s face.” Hunyuan Ancestor glared at Ye Lingyue, and she hurriedly moved behind Hunyuan Ancestor.

”Ancestor, don’t worry too much. After all, it’s on the way. Up ahead is the Heavenly Gang Bamboo Forest; I will order someone to cut down the hundred stalks of Heavenly Gang Bamboo you asked for immediately.”

Saying this, the Tiankui Palace Master gestured invitingly.

Ye Lingyue was taken aback, then looked at Hunyuan Ancestor. The Hunyuan Ancestor only moved his lips, sending a message that only Ye Lingyue and he could hear.

It turned out that this time Ye Lingyue was really in luck.

In the exchange between Tiankui Palace Master and Hunyuan Ancestor, the Hunyuan Ancestor learned something.

Just a few days ago, a letter came from the Northern Territory stating that the Northern Territory Divine Sovereign was currently expanding the arsenal, urgently needing a hundred pieces of Heavenly Gang Bamboo for weapon crafting.

The letter also mentioned that the Northern Territory Divine Sovereign would soon send someone to collect the Heavenly Gang Bamboo.

Just at this time, Hunyuan Ancestor and Ye Lingyue arrived, and Hunyuan Ancestor had previously served the Northern Territory Divine Sovereign. The Tiankui Palace Master naturally assumed that Hunyuan Ancestor came for the Heavenly Gang Bamboo.

Upon hearing this, the Hunyuan Ancestor knew that this was indeed divine assistance and promptly requested to take the Heavenly Gang Bamboo. Therefore, the Tiankui Palace Master brought Hunyuan Ancestor along.

The Tiankui Palace Master suspected nothing and readily agreed.

So the Tiankui Palace Master brought Hunyuan Ancestor and Ye Lingyue to the bamboo forest, and ordered a guard to cut down a hundred pieces of Heavenly Gang Bamboo.

Hunyuan Ancestor didn’t hesitate, gathered all the Heavenly Gang Bamboo, and under the pretext of traveling, hurriedly bid farewell and left the Tiankui Hall with Ye Lingyue.

Leaving the Tiankui Hall, Ye Lingyue found it hard to believe as she looked at the heap of Heavenly Gang Bamboo in the Qiankun Purple Gold Bag.

”Ancestor, I hope the next time you return to the Northern Realm, you’ll put in a good word for me with the Divine Sovereign.”

”Rest assured, Palace Master. I shall certainly speak well of you before the Divine Sovereign, and let’s hope the Palace Master swiftly becomes a Main God.”

Behind them, the Tiankui Palace Master continued with courtesy, but Ye Lingyue was eager to leave.

She feared that if delayed further, unforeseen complications might arise.

Just as Ye Lingyue breathed a sigh of relief, believing this trip to the Heavenly Gang Palace was nearly complete,

”To report to the Palace Master, a person outside claims to be a Divine Envoy from the Northern Territory, here to collect the Heavenly Gang Bamboo.”

A Heavenly Gang Warrior hurried in, speaking loudly.

”Divine Envoy? What Divine Envoy? Didn’t I already give the Heavenly Gang Bamboo to the ancestor?”

Tiankui Palace Master’s expression changed slightly, looking somewhat confused at Hunyuan Ancestor, whose face also changed instantly.
