Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1527: Chapter 1528: Forming the Lunar Guard

If it were in the past, Yun Liancheng would probably not care at all about becoming a commander, because the only things that mattered to him were his mother and the Cloud Clan!

But with the rise of Ye Luo, and Ye Luo’s extreme trust in him, Yun Liancheng’s heart started to have some thoughts!

You could call it ambition!

Now, Yun Liancheng has almost become Ye Luo’s spokesperson, because everyone knows that the Ninth Prince trusts none more than this friend he knew even before being found by the Royal Family!

For almost any matters concerning the Ninth Prince, you can be sure to find a reliable source if you go to Yun Liancheng!

Even when the Ninth Prince encounters any issues, most of them are handled by Yun Liancheng!

Ye Luo’s trust also nurtured ambition in Yun Liancheng’s heart; don’t think that his suggestion to let Ye Luo become the Emperor and then change the laws was said in jest.

In fact, Yun Liancheng genuinely hopes that Ye Luo could become Emperor!

Because if Ye Luo truly becomes the Emperor of the Great Tang Empire, then Yun Liancheng would at least have no problem getting to the position of Prime Minister!

Of course, Ye Luo has no idea about Yun Liancheng’s thoughts at this moment!

Even Yun Liancheng himself only has a vague sense of these thoughts, like the budding of ambition just starting to sprout!

After receiving Ye Luo’s order, Yun Liancheng went out directly. He knew that Ye Luo had put Lian’er and Yue Ying in charge of these over twenty thousand people, so Yun Liancheng went to find the two women.

After a round of discussion, the two women naturally agreed wholeheartedly. The benefits of cultivation need no explanation; they understood them well!

Though both of them had some basis in cultivation, it was largely amateurish. Yue Ying was a legitimate sect disciple, but unfortunately, her master died early, so she had to figure out cultivation by herself. The crucial thing was that they had no further cultivation methods!

Now, knowing that the man who saved them is none other than the Ninth Prince of the Great Tang Empire and that he is willing to train them into his personal guard, how could they not be happy?

Yun Liancheng couldn’t give these people a regular status, so he claimed that they would be Ye Luo’s personal guard to tell the two women!

After another round of discussion, the three of them named this entirely servant-comprised army as the Moon Goddess Guard, merely because this cave is the Forbidden Land of the Goddess Palace!

Since Yun Liancheng is the commander of this Moon Goddess Guard, and it wasn’t formed by conventional means, many aspects were minimized or omitted!

One could say that the Moon Goddess Guard doesn’t conform to any standard military structure.

Of course, no one cared about this.

Even Ye Luo, the true owner of the Moon Goddess Guard, didn’t expect them to have any significant role, so who would bother about structural issues!

As the news spread, everyone was incredibly excited!

These people were fugitives without a home, inherently anxious and unsure of their future!

But now, with someone telling them that they could cultivate and have no worries for food and clothing in the future, who would complain?

Salaries?

No one even mentioned them. As long as they had food to eat, these people were satisfied, let alone talk about salaries!

While Ye Luo was resting to restore his eyesight, Yun Liancheng, along with Lian’er and Yue Ying, began training using only the tactics that Yun Liancheng brought to defeat the Feather Forest Guards!

When Ye Luo awoke, the entire valley was filled with the sounds of drills and practice!

This change took Ye Luo by surprise!

Since Yue Ying had gone to train, Ye Luo didn’t call for him.

After all, being in the valley, there couldn’t be any real danger, so Ye Luo continued with his exploration!

In Ye Luo’s heart, there was a persistent intuition that since this valley is a Forbidden Land of the Moon Goddess Palace, it couldn’t possibly be that simple!

Therefore, Ye Luo had to find out the secret within!

Hour after hour went by, and Ye Luo intermittently activated his Clairvoyant Eye, amidst the cries of drill commands, as he consistently explored the secrets of the valley!

Just when Ye Luo was about to give up, a seemingly ordinary stone caught his attention!

No, to be precise, it’s a sculpture!

It’s just that due to frequent touching, the appearance of the sculpture had worn away!

Ye Luo activated his Clairvoyant Eye, but found nothing, as some mysterious force rendered his Clairvoyant Eye ineffective, preventing Ye Luo from seeing inside!

Something’s wrong, there must be an issue!

Ye Luo examined the sculpture closely and unconsciously placed his hand on it, instinctively injecting spiritual power!

Suddenly, a terrifying devouring force erupted, and Ye Luo’s entire spiritual power became uncontrollable, rushing toward the sculpture!

”Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi, what is happening?”

Ye Luo was shocked, so he called for the Seven-colored Power!

”Master, don’t worry. This is just a special transmission method. Once this sculpture absorbs enough spiritual power, it will teleport you over!”

Xiao Qi’s voice came, finally allowing Ye Luo to breathe a sigh of relief.

However, as time passed, Ye Luo grew anxious again, because he realized that the sculpture seemed endless, never stopping, constantly absorbing Ye Luo’s spiritual power!

Within Ye Luo, all the Qi Cyclones were rapidly absorbing spiritual power, but it was a mere drop in the ocean. Moreover, Ye Luo even began devouring the Spirit Mother in hopes of supplying the spiritual power needed for output!

But even so, it was not enough!

Suddenly, the devouring force began to consume Ye Luo’s vital essence!

Ye Luo was horrified, trying to withdraw his hand, but he found his body wouldn’t respond!

He could only watch as his spiritual power and vital essence were continuously devoured!

Until even a portion of his Divine Sense and Divine Soul was consumed.

At this moment, Ye Luo felt a little desperate, contemplating whether he might actually die due to his curiosity!

Ask Xiao Qi?

Only now did Ye Luo realize how naive he was; Xiao Qi had been watched by Ye Luo since his birth, and likely had less knowledge than Ye Luo did, yet Ye Luo still thought to ask him?

At this moment, Ye Luo felt intensely helpless, as he could rely on no one and didn’t even have anyone to consult!

This damned sculpture kept absorbing Ye Luo’s spiritual power, vital essence, Divine Sense, and Divine Soul, as if it would drain Ye Luo dry!

A previously unknown feeling emerged in Ye Luo’s heart: helplessness. Ye Luo never conceded easily; in fact, he never feared anything!
