Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 680: Chapter 680 Engagement Ceremony (Part 2)_1

Even members from the Situ Family, the Ouyang Family, and the Gongsun Family—the three major families—had people attending, which was proof of just how grand today’s engagement ceremony was.

It also reflected the Ji Family’s status in Capital City. Although not one of the five dominant families, its background and strength were in no way inferior to them.

In a luxuriously decorated room in the Emperor Hotel, Qin Yuru sat wearing a magnificent white gown, her face adorned with elegant makeup, and her hair styled into a noble and dignified updo.

The long, fair neck was graced with a crystal necklace worth tens of thousands, and her whole being exuded an air of noble elegance, stunningly beautiful—a sight that could captivate any man’s heart.

Yet, Qin Yuru’s face did not show any sign of joy; instead, there was a hint of worry between her brows.

At that moment, Situ Luoyun entered the room; her gaze flickered as she approached Qin Yuru and looked into the mirror at her reflection, asking, ”Are you really going to go through with this engagement to Ji Ling Tian?”

”We’ve come this far; there’s no choice but to continue, or the Ji Family will never let this go easily,” Qin Yuru replied.

”But do you think Ye Luo will let you get engaged to Ji Ling Tian like this?” Situ Luoyun asked indifferently.

”You know?” Qin Yuru looked startled.

Situ Luoyun’s lips curled into a bitter smile, ”You’ve kept it deep from me, I didn’t expect you to have that kind of relationship with this guy too?”

”Do you mean...,” Qin Yuru’s face changed, and she involuntarily looked toward Ye Luo.

Situ Luoyun nodded, ”Yes, I’m his woman too. If it weren’t for that, I probably wouldn’t have known the child in your womb belongs to that man.”

”It seems he really isn’t loyal,” Qin Yuru couldn’t help commenting, then frowned slightly, adding, ”I hope he doesn’t do anything foolish. Otherwise, today might turn into a disaster.”

”Don’t worry, I’m sure this engagement ceremony will not be completed. I know that man’s character; he can’t stand to see the woman he loves get engaged to someone else, especially when she’s carrying his child,” Situ Luoyun said gravely.

Meanwhile, outside the villa where Ye Luo and others lived, three figures appeared yet again, with the one in the center dressed in a white robe and having an ordinary face with square features, but exuding an extraordinary aura.

The other two were clad in black vests, each holding a cold, gleaming longknife, their expression ferocious; all three were masters of the Saint Realm.

Furthermore, the two men in black vests holding longknives were at the Fourth Level of the Saint Realm; as for the man in the white robe, he had already stepped into the Fifth Level of the Saint Realm, and clearly, these three were sent by Ji Mo to deal with Ye Luo.

The Ji Family must be hiding profound depths to dispatch so many Saint Realm experts all at once, especially when even among the five great families of Capital City, there were only a few Saint Realm masters to be found.

Even the Mu Family only had Elder Mu Qingsong at the Fifth Level of the Saint Realm; to effortlessly send out a Saint Realm Fifth Level master showed the terrifying extent of the Ji Family.

”The kid lives here? I don’t know what the old master is thinking, making the three of us deal with a kid who hasn’t even reached the Saint Realm. Isn’t this a waste of our time?” one of the men holding a longknife grumbled.

”Enough, the old master’s orders are not to be questioned,” the other man holding a longknife interjected.

He took a step forward, and a terrifying aura burst out of his body, sweeping towards the villa as he bellowed, ”Everyone inside, get the hell out!”

As the man’s thunderous shout echoed, all the women inside the villa, except for Miao Xiaoling, felt their blood qi boil over and their expressions turn to shock.

”This is bad, we’ve got enemies,” Miao Xiaoling stated, before swiftly running out. Following closely behind were Alice, Lin Xiaoyan, Chen Qianqian, and Sakura Miko, while Zi Yun’s eyes flashed with a hint of purple light, her expression calm as she stepped out.

”Who are you? What do you want?”

Miao Xiaoling and the others rushed out of the villa and faced the three men as she called out.

”Yo, didn’t expect to find so many beauties here. Each one of you is really quite charming,” one of the men in a black tank top said with a chuckle, his eyes leering at the women with a sinister glint.

”Where’s Ye Luo?” another man asked in a deep voice.

”Brother Ye isn’t here. What do you want?” Miao Xiaoling’s face was solemn as she spoke while the expressions of the others were fraught with nerves.

”Not here? What should we do now, big brother?” the two men in black tank tops exchanged glances, their eyes instinctively turning to the middle-aged man at the fifth level of the Saint Realm.

”Have Ye Luo come back immediately, or don’t blame us for not showing mercy,” the leading middle-aged man said, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

”Sister Xiaoyan, these people are difficult to deal with. You guys quickly retreat into the villa,” Miao Xiaoling urged Lin Xiaoyan and the others.

”Number Three, take them down!” the middle-aged man ordered, and the man with the lecherous look in his eyes let out a laugh, charging forward with no guard up, seeing the group of women only as lambs to the slaughter.

”Hyah!” Miao Xiaoling’s expression changed, and she quickly waved her hands, causing streams of nature’s spiritual energy from the surrounding void to converge rapidly.

”What...” The sight caused the expressions of the three men to change, even the pupils of the middle-aged man at the fifth level of the Saint Realm widened in shock.

”Condense!” Miao Xiaoling shouted once more, and the immense nature’s spiritual energy gathered into a giant palm imprint, bearing down on the man rushing toward them with the Lángyá club in hand.

At that moment, the man was completely overwhelmed by the terrifying might of nature’s spiritual energy. The power of this nature’s spiritual energy had reached the fifth level of the Saint Realm, and with only the strength of the fourth level, he stood no chance of withstanding it.

Under the oppressive force of the spiritual energy, he even lacked the ability to dodge, and a look of utter despair flashed through his pupils.

”Be careful!”

Then, the middle-aged man dressed in a white robe at the fifth level of the Saint Realm bellowed, his body moving like the wind as he lunged forward, tossing the man to the side, and with a single palm strike, he blasted at the palm imprint formed by the spiritual energy.

A sound like thunder resounded as terrifying spiritual energy rippled outward, forcing Miao Xiaoling to stagger back repeatedly while she spat out a mouthful of blood.

The nature’s spiritual energy that formed the palm imprint shattered, and the middle-aged man’s body also trembled with a mouthful of blood spewing out, his complexion turning pale.
