Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1336: Chapter 396: Another Water God Bloodline

Above the Moli Sea, Ye Lingyue and the others wore expressions of reluctance. They never expected that the Merfolk King would make such a tremendous sacrifice for an empty promise.

Without the Merfolk Elixir, the Merfolk King’s lifetime of cultivation dissipated, and he would no longer be the ruler of the sea.

”You all still came.”

Upon seeing Ye Lingyue, Di Shen, and the others, the Merfolk King was not surprised.

He gazed at Ye Lingyue standing at the bow of the ship.

In the sunlight, the girl’s dark face appeared so unremarkable, yet there seemed to be an indescribable charm about her, haunting and soul-stirring.

It was this very strength that drew more and more people to follow her.

”I am very grateful for your kind intentions, but as you can see, this is a matter of the Moli Sea, and I must handle it myself. I hope that whatever decision I make, you’ll ultimately take Qianche back to Shui City. She is the Water God’s bloodline, and Shui City needs her.”

The Merfolk King spoke calmly.

The Merfolk Elixir at his fingertips fell to Le Luo Qianche’s forehead.

With the merging of the Merfolk Elixir, Luo Qianche felt the Reincarnation Water Power within her no longer in disarray, slowly stabilizing.

But when she thought her appearance would also recover, she found that her aged visage remained unchanged.

”My face, Merfolk King, why hasn’t my face recovered?”

The joy didn’t last long as Luo Qianche saw that her own visage in the water remained just as hideous and clung to the Merfolk King like a madwoman.

”Luo Qianche, enough is enough. The Merfolk King has given you his entire cultivation, and you’re still not satisfied. You’ve harmed innocent townsfolk and taken contractors as servants. With such behavior, you have no right to be called the Water God’s bloodline.”

Ye Lingyue, seeing Luo Qianche’s unreasonable demeanor, was infuriated.

”Ye Lingyue, stop lecturing me. I became like this because of you. Don’t think I don’t know—you’re jealous of my appearance. Now that I’ve become as ugly as you, you’re reveling in it.”

Luo Qianche showed no sign of remorse.

Even if the Merfolk King had offered his Merfolk Elixir, so what.

It was what he should have done; he had promised to take care of her completely. Yet still, she ended up looking like this.

”When has my wife ever needed to be jealous of you?”

Di Shen raised an eyebrow; he could tolerate Luo Qianche’s arrogance but not her disrespect towards his wife.

”Exactly, where do you get the nerve to think City Lord Ye needs to be jealous of you? City Lord Ye, at this point, there’s no need to hide.”

Guangzi rarely chimed in to agree with Di Shen.

Seeing Luo Qianche being so shameless, Guangzi wanted nothing more than to slap her to knock her down a peg.

Without waiting for Ye Lingyue to speak, Guangzi magically produced a bottle of potion and dabbed it on Ye Lingyue’s face, revealing her true appearance as the makeup melted away.

In the sea breeze, Ye Lingyue’s unveiled appearance, with cascading hair reflected against the shimmering sea, showed her skin to be flawlessly white like the finest jade, her facial features as if crafted by the creator’s hand—her face like a breathtaking peony, stunningly beautiful.

Seeing Ye Lingyue’s true appearance, Luo Qianche, already shaky, was visibly shaken.

That ugly girl was a disguise; is this Ye Lingyue’s true beauty?

With such looks, no wonder Di Shen was captivated by her.

”Hahahahaha—how ridiculous, utterly ridiculous. Each of you already knew, didn’t you? You’re all mocking me, laughing at my blind arrogance, saying I deserve my current fate. In this world, there’s no Water God, and the Power of Water God—it’s all fake.” Luo Qianche felt she was the biggest joke.

She thought being the Water God’s bloodline was supremely noble.

Yet she couldn’t even contract a single Water Ghost.

She prided herself on her appearance, but compared to Ye Lingyue, she was just like an ugly duckling with all its feathers plucked.

The pride she built over twenty years crumbled in that moment.

”The Water God has not abandoned you, and the Power of Water God is real. You cannot contract it because a holder of the Water God bloodline cannot contract another holder of the Water God bloodline.”

Seeing Luo Qianche’s heart-wrenching sorrow, a flicker of excitement flashed in the Merfolk King’s eyes, and he spoke with a trembling voice.

”What? Are you insane? What Water God bloodline? Are you saying this creature also possesses the Water God bloodline?”

Luo Qianche listened, her eyes widening in fear.

How could this be? Her father, Luo Qian, had clearly said that only the two of them were the Water God’s bloodline.

”What I say is the truth. Her Water God bloodline purity even surpasses yours. I only discovered this recently, and I still don’t know why she became like this.”

In a daze, the Merfolk King approached the Water Ghost floating on the sea’s surface.

The Water Ghost hesitated for a moment upon seeing the Merfolk King.

But then, it roared in fury, lashing out at the Merfolk King with a vine.

”Merfolk King, be careful! It will kill you.”

Ye Lingyue, seeing the situation, worried for the Merfolk King’s safety, and with her command, Qiu Tian fell into the water.

As an Ancient Creature, Qiu Tian possessed terrifying life force both on land and sea.

The vines swiftly spread across the seabed, deeply rooting in the sea.

The two powerful beings faced each other; neither Qiu Tian nor the equally formidable Spirit Plant was willing to relent.

A huge mouth flowed with venom on Qiu Tian’s flower disk, and its large leaves extended like palms.

The leaves curled, and an Ancient Power struck out like Thunderflash.

The Water Ghost was equally unyielding, spreading its tentacle-like vines to strike at Qiu Tian.

The two opposing Spiritual Powers collided like two tornados.

The entire sea surface erupted in violent upheaval, as if an undersea volcano suddenly erupted, turning the Spiritual Power into massive waves, causing the Moli Sea to surge and boil.

The Water Beasts living in the Moli Sea scattered in panic.

Even so, many Water Beasts suffered; after several rounds of confrontation, the sea surface was littered with Water Beast corpses, a ghastly sight.

”Stop! I said, this is a matter of the Moli Sea, and I don’t want any outsiders interfering.”

Just as Qiu Tian prepared to launch a second attack, the Merfolk King stepped in to stop Qiu Tian.

”Merfolk King, why do this?”

Ye Lingyue couldn’t understand why the Merfolk King insisted.

Without the Merfolk Elixir, how could he stand against the Water Ghost?

”Ling Yue, let him be.”

Similarly a man, Di Shen stopped Ye Lingyue by intuition.

He could tell the Merfolk King had discovered something.
