Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1383: Chapter 443: Tough Measures

”Third Young Master Jin, are you heading out of the city for some fun? Do you need us to prepare a vehicle for you?”

The half-beast guards were evidently familiar with these young aristocrats. Upon seeing them, they quickly dropped their earlier arrogant demeanor towards Xi Jiuye and the others, nodding and bowing repeatedly.

”No need, we brothers plan to head out of the city to meet some staff from the Jin Family who are coming for the Jiu Provinces Hunting.”

It was Third Young Master Jin who tossed out the token. He had a face with little flesh, beady eyes, and a gaunt and tall figure. His eye sockets were bruised, and his cultivation was mediocre at best, possibly at the Reincarnation Fourth Layer.

Such a person was treated as a VIP by the half-beast guards and was courteously escorted out of the city gates, indicating his prominent family background.

As they passed by Xi Jiuye and his group, a few alluring female Demon Hunters accompanying Third Young Master Jin couldn’t help but take a few more glances at Xi Jiuye, attracted to him.

”What are you looking at? A pretty boy who can’t even enter the city gates, humph.”

Third Young Master Jin could not tolerate good-looking men. He slapped the female Demon Hunter beside him across the face and kicked her in the stomach. Her face instantly swelled, and she sat crying on the ground. The group of playboys didn’t even spare her a look before swaggering off.

”Miss, who were they, and why can they be so audacious in Xuanwu City?”

The female Demon Hunter was sobbing miserably when Xi Jiuye approached and softly asked her.

Seeing Xi Jiuye’s magnified handsome face, the female Demon Hunter’s heart fluttered, and she suddenly forgot all her grievances and anger.

Blushing, she said, although losing Third Young Master Jin was quite regrettable, the man in front of her was far better than Third Young Master Jin. Even if his status wasn’t as high, he was a man she could rely on.

”Sir, are you talking about Third Young Master Jin and his group? He is a direct descendant of the Outer Heaven Jin Family, the third young master responsible for the Jiu Provinces Hunting this time. The renowned Jin Wannian Commerce on the mainland is a Jin Family business.”

”The Outer Heaven Jin Family?”

Xi Jiuye looked thoughtfully at the backs of Third Young Master Jin and his group.

He had been in the Ancient Nine Provinces for a while and had heard a bit about its affairs.

It’s said that on this ancient land of the Nine Provinces, besides the Jiu Provinces Alliance and various cities and sects, there are some Outer World Families.

Most of them occupy places rich in Spiritual Energy and possess some inherited Divine Power Martial Arts.

After hearing this, Xi Jiuye already had an idea in mind.

”Sir, my stomach hurts a bit, could you help me up?”

The female Demon Hunter lowered her head, face full of bashfulness.

But after waiting for a while, no one responded. When she looked up, Xi Jiuye and his group were nowhere in sight.

”That man, how could he just leave like that, so heartless.”

Frustrated, the female Demon Hunter got up, twisted her waist, and could only walk towards Xuanwu City.

Meanwhile, Third Young Master Jin and his companions, holding a few female Demon Hunters, made their way to a tea pavilion outside Xuanwu City and ordered a few pots of tea.

”I say, Third Young Master, including us, the Jin Family has recruited over a dozen people; do we still need more manpower?”

”Those are people my grandfather recruited. I’ve heard they have some skills. Their arrival in the Central Plains seems to be about more than just demon hunting.”

Third Young Master Jin impatiently glanced at the official road ahead.

With him were people at the Reincarnation Fourth and Fifth Layer, usually just tagging along for fun. These people wouldn’t be much use in the Jiu Provinces Hunting, so he was hoping the people sent by his grandfather would be stronger.

”Ugh, what kind of lousy tea is this? Drag the tea seller out and give him a beating. Such horse urine-like rubbish dared to serve me.”

Third Young Master Jin spat out a sip of tea, ready to lose his temper.

Suddenly, darkness covered his head as a cloth bag was thrown over it, and he was lifted like a chicken.

After a round of punches and kicks, Third Young Master Jin cried out pitifully, calling for his companions to help.

”Help! Someone come save me!”

His voice went hoarse before he heard scolding.

”Who dares commit such violence in broad daylight?”

Sounds of fighting were heard, and Third Young Master Jin was propped up, the cloth bag over his nose removed.

His eyes were bruised, his nose bone broken, and countless bones in his body seemed to have been broken.

When he saw who it was, it was the pretty boy they had encountered at the city gate earlier.

”You, why is it you?”

Third Young Master Jin hadn’t expected that the person who saved him would be Xi Jiuye.

Looking around, he was horrified.

His group had all been slaughtered, bleeding from their orifices, already dead.

Even the female Demon Hunters and the tea shop’s owner and waiter had been killed.

In less than a quarter-hour, everyone had been killed, and witnessing such a scene, Third Young Master Jin shuddered at the killers’ brutal methods.

”Some bandits attacked earlier, your companions were killed and your things were robbed.”

Xi Jiuye and the Thirteen Riders stood leisurely to the side, looking as if they just happened to pass by.

Third Young Master Jin felt dizzy, having been beaten for no reason, still dazed.

He vaguely sensed something was amiss, but he couldn’t quite pinpoint it.

He wanted to ask what the assailants looked like or which direction they fled, but Xi Jiuye and the others claimed it was too dark to see anything clearly.

Third Young Master Jin dared not ask further.

”Are you Third Young Master Jin? You’re seriously injured, and it’s getting late. Why don’t we escort you back to the city?”

”Thank you all. If it weren’t for you stepping in to save me, I fear Jin would have died here.”

Third Young Master Jin wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, glancing again at Xi Jiuye and his group, he thought to himself.

”Who would have thought this pretty boy had some skills. My people are dead; when participating in the Jiu Provinces Hunting, I’ll be short-handed. If grandfather asks about it, he’ll definitely scold me. I might as well recruit them to join the team, which would be an explanation at least.”

Third Young Master Jin wasn’t too worried about his dead companions; he was more concerned with how to explain it to his family, so he invited Xi Jiuye and his group to represent the Jin Family in the hunting.

Xi Jiuye couldn’t ask for more and agreed readily.

Just then, from the direction of the official road, a few Spiritual Beasts approached.

Leading them was a handsome young man.

”Is that Third Young Master Jin ahead?”

The young man leaped down from the Spiritual Beast and approached; it was Yue Mubai, the Purple Fire Fang Venerate of Lonely Moon Sea.

”That’s me. You must be the alchemist sent by my grandfather. These are the experts I invited, who will represent our Jin family in the Jiu Provinces Hunting.”

Third Young Master Jin said as he introduced them to each other.
