Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1106: Chapter 1106: No Matter How Strong, Still Fear Firearms

”I don’t need anyone from the Poison Sect telling Snow Palace how to handle its affairs. If you want to make a move, just try it! See if you’ve got the strength to back it up!”

The Elder from Snow Palace was a woman, but she exuded a dominating presence. Her words were blunt, and her eyes emitted a sharp brilliance. The aura of the third level of the Controlling Qi Realm burst forth from her, causing even the air around to stall.

For a moment, Wu Yong, that Poison Sect powerhouse, and several others hesitated, their eyes flickering as they contemplated their next move.

”Let’s go!”

Immediately after, those from the Hidden Sect at the Controlling Qi Realm decisively spoke and turned away with their followers.

This Elder from Snow Palace was not terrifying on her own; they could have taken her on together. But the Snow Palace behind her was truly formidable.

Once they attacked, it would surely infuriate Snow Palace. By then, not only they but perhaps even their backing forces might face annihilation.

Soon, everyone present scattered, including those from the Feng Family and the Si Family. However, before leaving, Si Wenxing and Feng Liu shot Ye Luo a meaningful glance.

”Do you two want to make a move?”

The Snow Palace Elder said coldly, staring at Wu Yong and the Poison Sect powerhouse.

”I only want the Lingxu Grass, I don’t care about the rest!”

Wu Yong called out solemnly.

”Sorry, I won’t even give you a single blade of the Lingxu Grass!”

Ye Luo said unapologetically, immediately infuriating Wu Yong.

”What an arrogant kid. Do you really think you’re safe just because you have Snow Palace protecting you?”

Boom!

A terrifying aura erupted from Wu Yong, shooting directly towards Ye Luo.

Bang!

The Snow Palace Elder struck out immediately with her palm, blocking Wu Yong. The two attacks collided, producing a terrifying surge of energy. Waves of strength rippled out, forcing both of them back several steps.

Then, taking advantage of the distraction, the Poison Sect powerhouse at the Controlling Qi Realm charged towards Ye Luo, his body shrouded in a formidable black poison, enveloping Ye Luo.

”Scram!”

A fierce sword light cleaved through the air towards the Poison Sect powerhouse, instantly dispersing the rolling black clouds of poison. The fierce sword energy forced him to continuously retreat.

The Snow Palace Elder, holding a superior grade Spirit Sword, exuded an incredibly formidable aura, taking on both adversaries alone.

”Others, grab that kid!”

Wu Yong instructed the remaining few Elixir Sect Spirit Sea Realm powerhouses and then charged again towards the Snow Palace Elder, evidently intending to hold her off while the Elixir Sect personnel captured Ye Luo.

The Poison Sect powerhouse had the same idea, rushing forward to entangle the Snow Palace Elder, allowing other surviving Poison Sect experts to advance towards Ye Luo.

On Snow Palace’s side, other than the Elder, only two other Spirit Sea Realm experts remained, clearly unable to withstand the five or six Spirit Sea Realm experts from the Elixir Sect and Poison Sect.

”Die!”

Suddenly, one of the Elixir Sect’s Spirit Sea Realm experts charged at Ye Luo. Ye Luo’s lips curled into a cold smile. He quickly pulled out a pitch-black object from his Lingyun Ring and threw it before swiftly retreating.

The Spirit Sea Realm expert saw the pitch-black object flying towards him and had no idea what it was; he simply struck out with his palm.

Boom!

The next second, a thunderous explosion erupted, as terrifying energy spread rapidly and enveloped the Spirit Sea Realm powerhouse instantly. He hadn’t had time to react when the explosion’s fierce force blasted him away, severing both his hands and a leg.

Waves of wild energy spread out, with the explosion’s aftermath rolling like tidal waves and emitting a horrifying aura.

This sudden occurrence caused the remaining Elixir Sect and Poison Sect experts to hesitate, their eyes revealing shocked expressions.

It was totally unexpected for Ye Luo to pull such a move, and no one knew what that pitch-black object was or why it possessed such immense power. For a moment, these Spirit Sea Realm experts looked at Ye Luo with wary and solemn expressions.

In reality, what Ye Luo had thrown were just a few hand grenades, leftovers from his encounter at the superhuman experiment facility in Los Angeles.

He hadn’t expected them to come in handy today. These people had always stayed within their Sects and had no contact with the secular world, naturally unaware of these items, thus they had no time to prepare or retreat.

”It seems that no matter how skilled in martial arts, one is still vulnerable to firearms. I should prepare more of these things in the future!”

Ye Luo murmured to himself, his eyes glinting sharply, already deciding to acquire more hand grenades when he returned. Should he encounter powerful experts, just throwing a bunch of grenades their way would surely take care of them.

However, this tactic would only be effective against those unfamiliar with grenades; otherwise, once the opponent recognized the danger, it would surely not affect a Spirit Sea Realm expert.

Bang!

Terrifying energy burst forth as the Elder of Snow Palace, Wu Yong of Elixir Sect, and a Controlling Qi Realm expert from Poison Sect unleashed a fearsomely powerful strike.

The three of them were immediately forced to retreat multiple times, a dreadful surge of energy emanating from them, destroying the surroundings and causing even Ye Luo to retreat repeatedly.

”Do you still wish to continue?”

The Snow Palace Elder coldly questioned, his aura still immensely powerful and undiminished; his gaze was piercingly sharp.

Wu Yong and the Poison Sect Elder had flickering eyes but ultimately decided to give up on continuing the fight. Both of their strengths were slightly inferior to that of the Snow Palace Elder, and continuing would offer no tactical advantage.

Eventually, the two of them, along with their followers, quickly left the area.

”Thank you for your help this time, senior!”

Once they had left, Ye Luo turned his gaze toward the Snow Palace Elder.

”You are a friend of our Snow Palace; there’s no need for such formalities,”

said the Snow Palace Elder calmly.

”By the way, Elder, may I ask how many slots Snow Palace has for the Qing List competition?”

Ye Luo suddenly asked, as his question was naturally on behalf of Ruo Bing.

After all, Ruo Bing also wanted to participate in the Qing List competition but hadn’t obtained a spot through the standard channels, leaving Ye Luo wondering if he could secure a slot through Snow Palace.

”Each of us five top-tier powers has five slots. Why do you suddenly ask?”

The Snow Palace Elder looked at Ye Luo with a hint of confusion.

”I have a friend who also wants to participate in the Qing List competition but lacks a contestant spot. So, I was hoping to borrow a slot from Snow Palace to give her a chance to compete,”

Ye Luo stated directly.
