Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1596: Chapter 656: Long Family’s Old Acquaintance

How come it has the same name as the Earth-grade Spiritual Artifact Luoshu River and Mountain Fan, refined by Long Baobao from the Long Family back then?

Ye Lingyue couldn’t help but recall that little fellow Long Baobao she had encountered in Sifang City years ago.

Since their farewell at Sifang City, that little guy has taken over as Sifang City Lord, guarding the city. Several years have passed, and Long Baobao should have grown up by now, and the little Lightning Mink by his side should be quite large too, right?

”May I ask, City Lord, is this Luoshu Mountain River Map crafted by the Long Family of Qing Province?”

After years of separation, Ye Lingyue missed her old friend and couldn’t help but ask.

”What? Captain Ye, do you know someone from the Long Family?”

Seeing Ye Lingyue suddenly ask, the Wanxiang City Lord questioned in return.

”When I was in Qing Province, I had a friend despite the age gap. It’s been several years since we last met.”

Ye Lingyue reminisced; though her days in Qing Province were short, every friend was important to her.

”Is the friend you’re talking about the Long Family Master or the Sifang City’s Long City Lord?”

The Wanxiang City Lord laughed loudly.

He then told Ye Lingyue that the Luoshu Mountain River Painting in his hands was indeed a creation of the Long Family, but it was originally refined by Ancestor Long of the Long Family, who devoured by the Hundred Flames.

This painting was Ancestor Long’s last work before his fall. During the time he was burned by the Hundred Flames, the Luoshu Mountain River Painting was only half completed, locked away in the Long Family’s treasure vault.

After Long Baobao inherited as Sifang City Lord, the old man passed the position of Long Family Master to him as well.

Though young, he handled heavy responsibilities but managed not to disappoint Sifang City Lord’s expectations.

He managed Sifang City in an orderly manner.

Not only that, but it’s rumored he had remarkable encounters, successfully advancing his Lifebound Fire from mere Blue Fire to Purple Micro Fire, becoming a rare Purple Fire Square Venerate on the Qing Province Continent.

Nowadays, his cultivation in the artifact refining field is already on par with Yue Mubai of Lonely Moon Sea.

While examining the Long Family’s treasure vault, he found the unfinished Luoshu Mountain River Map from Ancestor Long and spent three months refining it anew, eventually crafting the first Sub-God Stage Divine Artifact on the Qing Province Continent, the Luoshu Mountain River Map.

Not long after refining, around the time Lady Dan Yu obtained the Senluo Ghost Fruit King.

She and the Wanxiang City Lord discovered that the Luoshu Mountain River Painting could temporarily seal the Senluo Mother Vine, so they temporarily borrowed the Luoshu Mountain River Painting from Long Baobao.

That led to the subsequent events involving Ye Lingyue in the underground treasure vault.

After hearing this, Ye Lingyue realized that the Luoshu Mountain River Painting was not a collection of the Sifang City Lord but of Long Baobao.

”Captain Ye, speaking of which, if you really go to the Jiu Provinces Base Camp, you might have a chance to meet Long City Lord. He is now one of the main Fang Venerates of the Jiu Provinces Base Camp.”

The Wanxiang City Lord laughed.

The enemy of your enemy is your friend.

The Wanxiang City Lord didn’t say everything; Long Baobao is a hot figure in the Jiu Provinces Base Camp now.

Even Nian Wu, that old guy, has to be cautious of him.

Upon hearing this, Nian Xiaoxie grew even more agitated knowing Ye Lingyue was acquainted with Long Fang Venerate.

Long Baobao is even younger than him, yet more handsome, with superior alchemy and artifact refining skills, causing many in the Jiu Provinces Base Camp to secretly say Long Baobao surpasses Nian Xiaoxie.

”As time passes, one should view them in a new light. I didn’t expect that little guy Long Baobao to have such fortuitous encounters. Bo Qing, do you remember Long Baobao?”

Ye Lingyue didn’t anticipate that little guy Long Baobao to have become so formidable.

”I remember.”

Bo Qing reluctantly mumbled two words.

Long Baobao, isn’t he the one who liked to stick to Ye Lingyue and make him carry him around all the time, that cocky kid?

Why wouldn’t this little guy stay in the Qing Province Continent and run to the Ancient Nine Provinces? Could he also be chasing after Ling Yue?

Bo Qing, with his keen mind, had long noticed that Long Baobao seemed overly attached to Ling Yue.

Long Fang Venerate?

Standing by, Xi Jiuye’s face was now as dark as the bottom of a pot.

How many men has this woman attracted?

What’s the relationship between the one called Long Baobao and her?

Why does her face light up when she talks about other men, yet she’s indifferent to him?

”Enough talk, City Lord. How about we start the match?”

Nian Xiaoxie impatiently urged.

That ugly creature dared to be intimate with that person he hated most, Long Baobao. Consider her unlucky; if he couldn’t touch Long Baobao for now, he’d start with this woman.

”Both of you are Alchemists, so you must have heard of the Drawing Array. It’s a special array that inhibits part of the cultivation. In this painting is the Senluo Mother Vine, an ancient demon creature that feeds on human souls. Due to certain reasons, I can’t destroy this demon creature. Lately, I’ve been feeding it some demon beasts. The rules of the match are simple: both of you will enter the Luoshu Mountain River Map, and whichever of you manages to grab a flower vine from the demon first will win.”

After speaking, the Wanxiang City Lord snapped open the Luoshu Mountain River Painting with a flick.

In the painting, a ghost vine as tall as the painting jumped into everyone’s view.

”Bring some demon beasts over.”

The Wanxiang City Lord ordered some demon beasts to be brought in.

The demon beasts bred at the City Lord’s Mansion were certainly extraordinary.

Several were even at the Great Demon Level.

But when they approached the painting, a suction force emerged from within and a tentacle, covered in suction-cup-like spines, suddenly emerged, grabbing a demon beast’s leg and pulling it into the painting.

Soon, a flash of red light streaked across the Luoshu Mountain River Painting.

From the painting, it spat out a withered piece of beast skin wrapped around a few chunks of beast bone.

The demon beast’s flesh and blood, and even its soul, had been completely devoured.

A chill ran up everyone’s spine.

Nian Xiaoxie, who had been so smug earlier, couldn’t help but wipe the cold sweat from his brow with his sleeve.

A Great Demon Level demon beast was devoured without any resistance – just how powerful was the demon sealed within?

Bo Qing and Tang Tiansong also showed signs of worry.

”Captain, let me compete against him.”

Bo Qing didn’t want Ye Lingyue to take unnecessary risks.

”Who’s the captain here, you or me? Don’t worry, nothing will happen to me. I say, Venerate Nian, I’m ready, how about you?”

Ye Lingyue winked at Bo Qing, then looked at Nian Xiaoxie with a half-smile.

”Ridiculous, if even a piece of White Fire trash like you dares to enter, why wouldn’t I? It’s just a flower vine.”

Nian Xiaoxie was already regretting it in his heart, but couldn’t lose face outwardly.

Besides, he had Red Scorpion Fire on his side. If he couldn’t get a vine of the Senluo Mother Vine, then there was no chance for that White Fire trash.

”In that case, both of you will enter the Luoshu Mountain River Map together.”

With a flick of his hand, the Wanxiang City Lord sent a surge of suction from the painting, drawing Ye Lingyue and Nian Xiaoxie into it.
