Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1079: Chapter 139: Speaking on Behalf of Master

As soon as Zitang Su’s identity was revealed, all the disciples of Lonely Moon Sea in the arena knelt down, including Yue Mubai and the other three elders, all calling out in unison.

”Greetings, Grand Ancestor Master Uncle.”

At that moment, only Sect Leader Wuya, Ye Lingyue, and Zitang Su remained standing.

Oh, and Di Shen.

Driven by a man’s intuition, he was certain that the relationship between Zitang Su and his own wife was far more complicated than an ordinary master-disciple bond.

To make him kneel before a rival in love was out of the question.

Among those kneeling, especially those from Wuya Peak, a question lingered in their minds. Who could tell them what to call Sixth Sister-in-law in the future?

”Grand Ancestor Master Uncle, about Xue Xuan’s injury?”

Sect Leader Wuya knew Zitang Su’s temperament and asked timidly.

Zitang Su glanced at Xue Xuan, raised his finger, and transformed a surge of Primordial Power into a beam of light aimed directly at Xue Xuan’s Dantian.

Zitang Su’s Primordial Power entered her body, causing Xue Xuan to vomit black blood, roll her eyes back, and faint.

”Her life is not in danger.”

After saying this, Zitang Su fell silent.

Elder Xue was overjoyed and hurried to check his daughter’s condition.

Upon checking, Elder Xue’s heart sank to rock bottom.

Xue Xuan’s Dantian had been shattered by Zitang Su’s finger; although the rampaging Primordial Power within her had indeed dissipated, her Dantian was destroyed as well.

From now on, Xue Xuan would be no different from a cripple. Worse yet, influenced by that Forbidden Medicine, she was completely deranged.

But even knowing this, what could Elder Xue do?

The one who acted was Zitang Su, whose strength was profound and unfathomable; even Yue Mubai had been slapped by him without a word, let alone the precariously positioned Elder Xue.

At this moment, Elder Xue truly swallowed his grievances, picking up his unconscious daughter, and said with bitter gratitude.

”Thank you, Lord, for your life-saving grace. Your benevolence will be remembered forever by this junior.”

Elder Xue could only watch Ma Zhao with hatred.

”You stay behind, Snow Peak now only has you left. No matter what, you must enter the top ten.”

Since becoming Elder of Snow Peak, Elder Xue had never been more humiliated than today.

Xue Xuan had been practically guaranteed a spot in the top ten, but due to the Forbidden Medicine incident, her qualification was likely to be revoked.

The reputation of Snow Peak had fallen, and if even Ma Zhao failed to make it into the top ten, Snow Peak would be utterly defeated in this sect competition.

After Elder Xue left, Elder Yue also approached Zitang Su.

”Lord Zitang, this junior has failed to discipline my disciple Feiyue, allowing her to offend you and your disciple. Please, I beg you to show mercy and allow this junior to take away this unworthy disciple.”

Having said this, Elder Yue looked at Hong Mingyue on the ground with extreme disdain.

Hong Mingyue, with torn clothes, covered in blood and saliva, sat dazed and confused, unaware if she was scared stiff or insane.

Despite having said Hong Mingyue was a disciple, Elder Yue had no deep feelings for her in just two years. To Elder Yue, Hong Mingyue was merely a pawn to be used.

From Elder Yue’s perspective, Feiyue now had her reputation ruined, bringing significant resentment to Moon Peak. Elder Yue was reluctant to take Feiyue away, finding her embarrassing.

If it weren’t for the recent incident, Elder Yue would have been willing to protect her. But now, Feiyue was no longer useful to her.

However, earlier, her brother Yue Mubai secretly passed a message, urging her to protect Feiyue at all costs.

Previously, Elder Yue wanted to protect Feiyue, but Yue Mubai was not very supportive.

Why, after a short while, did her brother reverse course, telling her to spare Feiyue’s life without specifying the reason, just stating that she was useful?

Though puzzled, Elder Yue knew her brother had been wise and insightful since childhood. If he wanted to save Feiyue, there must be a reason.

Thus, Elder Yue stepped forward to plead.

Zitang Su said nothing; in his view, Feiyue’s life was inconsequential as long as his disciple had no opinion, nor did he bother speaking.

Ye Lingyue also did not obstruct.

Hong Mingyue was helped up, her hair disheveled, limping as she was led away.

As Hong Mingyue stood up, Di Shen’s brow slightly furrowed, as if he had noticed something. His gaze lingered on Hong Mingyue’s abdomen for a moment but quickly returned.

The sect competition was briefly interrupted due to the incidents involving Hong Mingyue and Xue Xuan.

After the two women left in succession, Zitang Su raised his eyebrows and glanced at Sect Leader Wuya.

Sect Leader Wuya saw that Zitang Su had no intention of leaving and inquired.

”Grand Ancestor Master Uncle, Elder Xue was originally a judge, but he’s gone now. Perhaps you, Grand Ancestor Master Uncle, could serve as a judge?”

Sect Leader Wuya asked politely.

Upon hearing the word ”elder,” Zitang Su’s eyebrows twitched slightly.

Did he really look so old? Even Wuya, an old man, called him an elder.

It seemed he needed to use the Shishen Refining Cauldron to refine some Rejuvenation Pills when he returned, Zitang Su pondered.

Seeing him silent, Sect Leader Wuya was unsure whether Zitang Su would serve as a judge and anxiously glanced at Ye Lingyue.

Ye Lingyue understood Master Zi’s temperament; the guy often ignored people, but this offered her an opportunity to exploit.

Ye Lingyue immediately raised her voice and said solemnly.

”My master has agreed, but Master doesn’t like to speak, so I will relay the messages.”

Sect Leader Wuya’s white beard and eyebrows shook upon hearing this.

The other elders from the three peaks and Yue Mubai, upon hearing this, especially Yue Mubai internally cursed Ye Lingyue, what a cover for Zitang Su being a mute and a hermit, better to say the judging would be done by her, Ye Lingyue instead.

The crowd may have thought so, but Zitang Su didn’t deny it, clearly showing that the two were collaborating.

Zitang Su had come today only to watch his disciple compete. Having missed it, he was indifferent about watching the remainder.

Since his pupil spoke up, he decided to stay and watch, no problem.

Others might watch the competition; he’s here to watch his disciple.

Thus Zitang Su did not decline, directly taking Sect Leader Wuya’s seat.

Sect Leader Wuya saw this and had no choice but to announce that the sect competition would continue.

The previous sixth group match had mostly been completed. Feiyue’s departure allowed another female disciple from Feng Peak, initially second, to take Feiyue’s place as the first.

Thus, the champions of all six groups were determined, selecting six for the top ten, with the remaining four seats to be chosen from the second place holders.

”The upcoming match will determine the selection among the second places of each group. First selecting three from six, then promoting one from the losing three. Perhaps, Grand Ancestor Master Uncle you could...”

”I’ll do it; I’ll fully represent my master.”

Ye Lingyue promptly volunteered and without hesitation began drawing lots.
