Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1518: Chapter 578: There’s a Demon Beast Behind You

Dongfang Liuli suddenly became tense.

Why would people from Futu Heaven appear in Qiyu City?

Could it be that her refining of the Soul-breaking Elixir had been exposed?

As a leader in the domain of doctors, the cultivation and use of Heart Execution Grass were strictly prohibited, a ban personally issued by the controller of Futu Heaven.

The Zhan Yue Team were her henchmen, and earlier, when capturing those demon hunters used as test subjects, it was Yi Qianyu who secretly ordered it.

This explains why the people from Futu Heaven wanted to deal with Zhan Yue first.

Was this a warning to others?

Dongfang Liuli couldn’t help but grit her teeth.

Damn Futu Heaven, their reach is too far.

This is not the Divine Realm, and she, Dongfang Liuli, is no longer that timid little alchemist who fled everywhere for survival.

”Spread the word externally, claiming that the people from Zhan Yue all died suddenly. Quickly locate Yi Qianyu, and strictly investigate the interactions and events involving the Zhan Yue Team recently; report to me as soon as there’s a result.”

In Qiyu City, Dongfang Liuli could be considered a force to be reckoned with, even the City Lord’s Mansion conceded to her somewhat.

If she said ’sudden death,’ then it was sudden death.

Both the Tang City Team and Dongfang Liuli were actively seeking Yi Qianyu’s whereabouts, but where was Yi Qianyu now?

Outside Qiyu City, ten miles away, near where Ye Lingyue had earlier encountered Luo Qianche.

”Damn Ye Lingyue, she’s so good at hiding.”

Yi Qianyu was still unaware of the earth-shattering changes happening in Qiyu City.

He, accompanied by two trusted subordinates, pursued Ye Lingyue all the way, thinking it would be easy, but unknown to him, Ye Lingyue’s ”escape” skills were superb.

Throughout the chase, each time they were about to catch her, she would suddenly vanish like a rabbit.

Moreover, although she seemed to lack the Power of Reincarnation, her pace and Primordial Power seemed inexhaustible.

Even Yi Qianyu, at the Perfect Small Divine Power Realm, felt strained after sprinting ten miles.

Combining the forces of the three, he still couldn’t catch her.

Yi Qianyu couldn’t guess that Ye Lingyue possessed a cauldron embryo, and her Dantian had already been modified.

Lack of Primordial Power, supplement with spiritual power.

In terms of sheer Primordial Power abundance, she could rival Great Divine Power Martial Artists, and when it came to fleeing, Yi Qianyu’s Primordial Power was no match for Ye Lingyue.

Unknowingly, Yi Qianyu and his men had completely left the realm of Qiyu City.

All around was lush woodland.

”Team leader, if we continue, we’ll reach a densely inhabited demon beast area. It’s said to be quite unstable recently.”

Two members of the Zhan Yue Team were uneasy, eyeing their surroundings.

Recently, demon beast activity had been especially frequent, likely due to the impending celebration for the Demon King Tongtian, which was causing the Demon Clan to gather in worship.

Some originally dormant demon beasts from the outskirts of the Central Plains gradually headed towards the Northeast Region.

The alarmed beasts along the way had become exceptionally irritable.

”Ye Lingyue, is all you know how to do is run? If you have the guts, come out and face me.”

Yi Qianyu became wary.

Then, something moved in the tree cluster to the left, a figure seeming to flash past.

”Chase!”

Yi Qianyu had just given the order, when another figure flashed past in the direction of the right bush.

Which one was Ye Lingyue, or was that woman being deceitful?

Yi Qianyu hesitated.

”You two, chase the left side. I’ll chase the other.”

Yi Qianyu didn’t believe that he couldn’t catch Ye Lingyue alone.

The three divided, with Yi Qianyu pursuing the woman through the bushes.

Yi Qianyu picked up a Soul-breaking Elixir and swallowed it.

Because of his private dealings with Dongfang Liuli, Yi Qianyu had obtained quite a few Soul-breaking Elixirs, which cost fifty Merit Points each, and he consumed them like candy.

Having expended considerable Primordial Power while chasing earlier, he instantly rejuvenated.

Ahead was Ye Lingyue.

Compared to earlier, her movement technique had clearly slowed, suggesting her Primordial Power was depleted.

A wide river appeared ahead.

The river halted Ye Lingyue’s steps.

Seeing this, Yi Qianyu infused his feet with a surge of Primordial Power, his body swiftly moving like a fish swimming, landing in front of Ye Lingyue.

The sound of rushing water echoed behind.

”Ye Lingyue, let’s see where you run now.”

Yi Qianyu gloated.

Ye Lingyue steadied her stance, exerting force at her toes, striking at Yi Qianyu.

”Struggle of a cornered beast.”

Yi Qianyu scoffed, stepping out and effortlessly dodging Ye Lingyue’s attack.

In the wind, something seemed to brush against his clothing, but Yi Qianyu paid it no mind.

Having consumed the Soul-breaking Elixir, his internal power was more abundant, sparing no concern for Ye Lingyue’s Flower Fist and Embroidered Legs.

”Yi Qianyu, we have no grudge between us, hunting me down for a few scraps of beast meat is unnecessary, right?”

Ye Lingyue seemed weary of resisting, dodging as she struck with feeble gestures, each punch and palm barely grazing Yi Qianyu’s clothing.

Meanwhile, Yi Qianyu’s Primordial Power spiraled around, unrelenting, empowered by the Soul-breaking Elixir, he fought with increasing vigor, repeatedly cornering Ye Lingyue, nearly ensnaring her.

As her figure was driven to the riverbank.

The turbulent river waters were murky, concealing the dangers beneath.

”If there’s blame, it must be for you being Di Shen’s woman. That brat, Di Shen, embarrassed me to no end, humiliated the woman I desired. Tell me, how should I deal with you?”

Yi Qianyu ogled her with a lecherous gaze.

Near the river, the wind whisked water, wetting Ye Lingyue’s clothes, accentuating her shapely figure.

”Tsk tsk, your looks might be bleak, but your figure is commendable. Before handing you over to Dongfang Liuli, why not entertain me first?”

Yi Qianyu lewdly extended his hand, reaching for Ye Lingyue’s chest.

At this moment, Ye Lingyue’s face showed fear.

”Yi Qianyu, there’s a demon beast behind you.”

”Foolish! Do you think I would fall for that?”

Yi Qianyu blocked Ye Lingyue’s path, his back facing the river.

However, as far as he knew, demon beasts were sparse here, though there were Azure Dragon Crocodiles causing trouble earlier.

Ever since Di Shen, that ’level-up monster’ fanatic, stayed in Qiyu City for half a month, akin to a storm passing, many demon beasts were slaughtered.

Moreover, even if there was a demon beast, it wouldn’t attack only him.

Yi Qianyu deemed it an excuse from Ye Lingyue.

Yet suddenly, he sensed something off behind him as a stench wafted over.

Upon realizing the threat, Yi Qianyu was startled, turning quickly, but too late—a sharp pain erupted from his shoulder, with serrated teeth biting into his left shoulder fiercely.
