Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 482: Chapter 482 Arriving in Dian Nan_1

In this grand hall sat Situ Yunchao and Situ Wentian, and of course, there was Yang Jian, the grandson of the Tianzong Grand Elder. As for the old master of the Situ Family, he had commenced his seclusion.

”Clan Leader, may I inquire what matter necessitated my return?” Situ Luoyun asked, looking at Situ Yunchao with indifference.

At this moment, Yang Jian’s eyes were fixed on Situ Luoyun, radiating a hint of wicked intent.

”Luoyun, this is the grandson of the Tianzong Grand Elder, young master Yang Jian,” Situ Yunchao introduced forthrightly.

”Miss Situ, nice to meet you, I’m Yang Jian,” said Yang Jian, rising to his feet and approaching Situ Luoyun.

”Pleasure to meet you, young master Yang,” Situ Luoyun replied, her tone neither warm nor cold, unaffected by the other’s status.

”It seems that the words of brother Situ did not deceive, for you possess an exquisite beauty, mature yet full of charm, exactly the type I’m fond of,” declared Yang Jian boldly and directly.

”Thank you for your kind words, young master Yang, but you are not my type,” retorted Situ Luoyun even more directly, causing the expressions of Situ Yunchao and Situ Wentian to subtly shift.

”Luoyun, what nonsense are you talking about? Apologize to young master Yang immediately,” rebuked Situ Yunchao, his face darkening as he quickly admonished her.

Yang Jian waved his hand, ”No matter, I quite like Miss Situ’s disposition. May I ask what kind of man Miss Situ prefers?”

”I am sorry, young master Yang, but I cannot disclose that,” Situ Luoyun replied.

”It’s of no concern. Regardless, now that I have taken a fancy to you, you will be my woman. I believe I can make it happen,” Yang Jian said with a confident smile curving his lips, his tone authoritative and firm.

Situ Luoyun’s eyebrows knitted slightly, but she said nothing.

Later, within a room of the Situ Family estate, Situ Yunchao and Situ Wentian sat together.

”What are your thoughts on this matter?” Situ Yunchao asked, his gaze on Situ Wentian.

”Since Yang Jian is interested, that’s excellent. Aligning with the Grand Elder is beneficial for both me and the Situ Family,” said Situ Wentian, his expression calm.

”But Situ Luoyun has always borne hatred towards us. What if she were to use Yang Jian’s strength against us?” asked Situ Yunchao, his brow tightly furrowed.

A smile crept onto Situ Wentian’s lips, ”Don’t worry. Yang Jian isn’t that foolish. Women are merely playthings in his eyes and will never take the lead. To think she could use Yang Jian against us is nothing but wishful thinking.”

”As long as that’s the case. However, regarding the old master...”

”The Grandfather is in seclusion right now, so there’s no need to disturb him. Even if he knew, he wouldn’t say anything in the interest of the family,” Situ Wentian replied indifferently.

In Situ Luoyun’s room, she sat on the sofa, her gaze sparkling with light. Standing by her side was a woman in black, none other than Leng Yue, who had once been sent by Situ Luoyun to assist Ye Luo in Jinling. Leng Yue had always been Situ Luoyun’s personal guard.

”Miss, the Clan Leader seems intent on pairing you with that Yang Jian,” said Leng Yue in a frosty tone.

”That’s their business. I will never agree to it. I already have a man,” scoffed Situ Luoyun, the image of Ye Luo flashing in her mind and a sweet smile curling the corners of her lips.

...

Dian Nan, a city in the southwestern region of Huaxia, and Miaojiang lies within its boundaries.

Ye Luo and his group of four had spent seven to eight hours on a flight, and it wasn’t until the sky darkened that they finally arrived in the city.

”Now that it’s late, let’s find a hotel to stay in, and then tomorrow we can figure out how to get into Miaojiang,” Nie Yuntian suggested.

”Mm,” Ye Luo nodded. Of all the people in the group, only Nie Yuntian had been to Miaojiang, so naturally, they all followed his lead.

They found an ordinary hotel and began the check-in process.

However, it was only upon asking the front desk that they discovered there were only two rooms left in the hotel, and there were no other hotels nearby.

”Ye Luo, two rooms will do—Kuang Xiong and I will take one, and you and Zi Yun will share the other. It’s just perfect,” Nie Yuntian said matter-of-factly.

”I...” Before Ye Luo could say anything, Nie Yuntian had already proceeded with the check-in, and naturally, Ye Luo ended up sharing a room with Zi Yun.

And to his surprise, the room had only one bed. How were they supposed to sleep? Surely he wasn’t expected to share a bed with Zi Yun. Although Zi Yun was indeed a beauty, he quickly dismissed the thought considering Yan Ling’s instructions to him, as well as Zi Yun’s current situation.

After settling their luggage down, Zi Yun looked at Ye Luo with a pout and said, ”Big brother, I’m hungry.”

”Perfect, I’m hungry too. Let’s go eat together,” Ye Luo replied readily.

He had intended to invite Kuang Xiong and Nie Yuntian to go out for a meal together, but they opted for room service at the hotel, and since Zi Yun didn’t want to eat there, he had no choice but to leave the hotel with Zi Yun to find somewhere to eat.

As they strolled along, they found a decent restaurant bustling with people, which seemed like it was doing good business, so they walked straight in.

”What would you two like to eat?” A plainly dressed young girl approached them and asked.

”Bring us some of your local specialties,” Ye Luo ordered directly.

”Sure, please wait a moment,” the young girl smiled, nodding her head, and then she went into the kitchen.

Soon, several dishes of Dian Nan’s local delicacies were served, and they tasted genuinely delicious.

”Make way, make way!”

However, halfway through their meal, a group of men wearing leather armor T-shirts and sporting bald heads swaggered in, exuding the demeanor of thugs.

The group barged in and immediately drove away a few customers at one of the tables. These people were so scared that they paled and ran out without a word.

The customers at the other tables changed their expressions at the sight of this group, eyes filled with fear. They left without finishing their meals, obviously intimidated by the gang.

”Brothers, what would you like to eat?”

An honest-looking middle-aged man hurried over and addressed the group with a sycophantic and respectful manner.

”Go on, we’re hungry. Get out your best booze and food for us. If you disappoint us, be careful, or your shop might just have to shut down,” the leader of the gang, a bald man in black leather armor adorned with a chain, commanded arrogantly, as if he was looking down on everyone.

”Yes, yes, yes, please wait a moment, brothers,” the middle-aged man nodded repeatedly, his face showing signs of nervousness, and he quickly left.

”Big brother, look at that chick over there, she’s pretty hot!” A lackey beside the bald man in black armor pointed at Zi Yun and remarked with a lewd expression.
