Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1249: Chapter 1249: Return Home

Ye Luo ignored them and continued, ”Of course, these mass-produced Controlling Qi Realm pseudo-warriors cannot be considered true powerhouses, as their actual combat ability is merely somewhat better than those in the Hua Yuan Realm, and they are not even a match for a genuine Spirit Sea Realm powerhouse! However, their physical bodies and True Yuan reserves have indeed reached the Controlling Qi Realm, so they should not be underestimated.”

”Then, Ye Luo, do you know how many of these pseudo-powerhouses are in the Corpse King Palace?”

Someone stood up and asked Ye Luo.

Ye Luo was speechless; how could he possibly know such confidential information.

”Sorry, Commander, I can’t answer your question, as that is a core secret of the Corpse King Palace, and probably only they know it.”

...

Ye Luo detailed everything he knew about the Corpse King Palace to those present so that they could be mentally prepared.

Clearly, for some reason, there was no intention of allowing Ye Luo to join the mission this time. Of course, for Ye Luo, it didn’t matter—if he didn’t join this special department, he still had his own ways to deal with the Corpse King Palace.

Besides, Ye Luo had no desire to join at all!

This special department was organized jointly by the Hidden Sect and the secular world, and many of the forces in it actually saw Ye Luo as an enemy!

Join them?

As long as they didn’t bother Ye Luo, he was already very grateful.

The meeting ended, but this time Ye Luo seemed to be ostracized. Apart from the Chief Commander occasionally asking Ye Luo some questions, most of the time, Ye Luo had no right to speak, for those people simply did not give him the opportunity.

Elder Shi, the team captain, and even Zhao Gang and others who had good relations with Ye Luo, were always pulled into conversation by someone else whenever they tried to speak with him.

Some guys really wanted to isolate Ye Luo!

Perhaps they also knew about the Corpse King Palace’s decree to eliminate Ye Luo and were ostracizing him in hopes of letting the Corpse King Palace take him out.

Moreover, Elder Shi and the others couldn’t really make too many comments either—this time, it was the Hidden Sect and the secular world joining forces against the Corpse King Palace.

The bigger picture took precedence. This was something they had to abide by, after all, if their actions prevented the formation of the special department, allowing the Corpse King Palace’s menace to grow, then they would indeed be great sinners!

At this moment, Ye Luo thought of Elder Shi’s previous warning. Elder Shi had warned him that someone was out to get him and had told Ye Luo to be very careful.

And all along, Ye Luo had just assumed it was the Corpse King Palace’s people, but it turned out that wasn’t necessarily the case. It could be that within this special department as well, someone had it out for Ye Luo.

After the meeting, Elder Shi and the others were very frustrated. Perhaps they wanted to speak with Ye Luo as well, but they were blocked by others.

As for Zhao Gang, he was stopped by a representative of the Hidden Sect, who said they wanted to learn more about the Corpse King Palace from him.

However, Zhao Gang didn’t have that many scruples.

”You want to understand the Corpse King Palace? Then you’ll have to ask Ye Luo. Are you embarrassed to ask? Then I’ll go ask for you!”

Having said that, Zhao Gang ignored those people and walked directly towards Ye Luo.

”Let’s go.”

The two got into the car, and it was then that Zhao Gang turned to Ye Luo and asked, ”What’s the matter? Are you feeling down?”

Ye Luo smiled slightly. He clearly understood the meaning behind Zhao Gang’s words, but he really hadn’t thought too much about it.

”Why would I feel bad? If someone wants to give me a break to rest up, I’d be all too happy to take it!”

Zhao Gang was slightly taken aback, suddenly feeling an unsettling sensation in his heart.

”What do you mean? Are you saying that you want to wash your hands of this?”

The truth was, whether it was Zhao Gang or Elder Shi, those who knew Ye Luo were very aware that in the fight against the Corpse King Palace, Ye Luo was a key figure who was absolutely indispensable.

Up until now, Ye Luo had been the one charging to the forefront in almost every confrontation with the Corpse King Palace!

It was Ye Luo who first discovered the existence of the Corpse King Palace!

It was Ye Luo who broke the Corpse King Palace’s conspiracy in Zhamu City!

And it was Ye Luo who went to India, bringing back invaluable information!

Ye Luo’s strength could no longer just be described as part of the younger generation.

After all, at this meeting, with so many powerful figures present, who couldn’t see that Ye Luo had made a breakthrough!

A dragon trapped in shallow waters, if it does not fly, then so be it, but once it takes off, it soars to the heavens!

At this moment, Ye Luo was no longer the dragon trapped in shallow waters but the Flying Dragon soaring to the sky.

From the way Ye Luo described those pretenders among the Corpse King Palace, anyone but a fool knew that Ye Luo possessed immensely powerful combat strength and countless methods.

Ostracize Ye Luo?

Although Zhao Gang was powerless in this matter, he couldn’t help but feel a deep worry in his heart.

”Alright, Director, since the Hidden Sect has now joined forces with the secular world, I believe, with your strength, the Corpse King Palace is nothing to worry about. I’ve been running around for a while now, and I’m a bit tired, so please, give me a long vacation,” Ye Luo said calmly, his face neither sad nor happy.

Upon hearing the term ’long vacation’, Zhao Gang was suddenly startled.

But it was already too late to say anything now.

Ye Luo simply got out of the car, not to disrespect Zhao Gang, but because he knew that this time, if Zhao Gang got too close to him, even he might be in danger.

Ye Luo’s enemies now weren’t just the Corpse King Palace but also that special department!

This department, ostensibly established to combat the Corpse King Palace, would surely strike at Ye Luo given the chance.

In just a single meeting, Ye Luo had become indifferent to many things: the disdainful looks of those people, their words of rejection, all caused Ye Luo profound disappointment.

If it had been any other situation, Ye Luo might have already struck out, but this time, he held back, merely letting go was already the greatest concession Ye Luo was willing to make!

If they wanted to exclude him, then let them do so, hoping they wouldn’t come to him in need one day.

Ye Luo walked calmly down the street, watching the hustle and bustle of people and the flow of vehicles like a river, and after a moment, a smile appeared on his face.

It seemed that now, Ye Luo felt much more at ease.

”Let’s go! Home!”

Ye Luo turned nimbly and headed straight for the Mysterious Valley.

...

”We welcome the Alliance Hierarch home!”

”We welcome the Master home!”

Inside the Mysterious Valley, members of the Ye Alliance and Dragon Pavilion stood before Ye Luo with utmost respect, welcoming him back. Ye Luo waved his hand, indicating everyone should go about their business, leaving only Long Xiaotian and a few others behind.

”How about it, what do you think of my valley?” Ye Luo asked with a smile.

”Master, this place is abundant with Spiritual Energy, cultivating here for a day is simply better than several days outside. Furthermore, there’s a rich variety of Spiritual Medicine and herbs. Many of the Elixirs we couldn’t concoct before due to a lack of materials can now be produced. It can be said that everyone’s strength is improving very rapidly!”
