Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1615: Chapter 1616: A Chance Encounter with an Oddball

But since Ling Qingya spoke up, Luo Ji decided not to hide it anymore either.

”I, I just saw Ye Luo returned, but he fell into the sea and was saved by a fisherman.”

What!

How is this possible?

All the women were extremely shocked. After all, with Ye Luo’s strength, how could he need to be rescued? Could it be that something unexpected happened to Ye Luo?

”This, little sister Luo Ji, are you sure you saw clearly? Was it really Ye Luo? Why would he need someone to rescue him? Could he be injured?”

Ling Qingya looked somewhat urgent. After all, this matter concerned Ye Luo, and they couldn’t help but worry.

”I don’t know, I’m sure it was him, but there was a mysterious aura around him. It not only prevented me from observing him further, but I also couldn’t get too close!”

Hmm?

Luo Ji’s so-called foresight turned into observation?

Of course, no one cared about such details now. Instead, everyone was wondering what had happened to Ye Luo.

It’s because Ye Luo’s strength advanced too quickly, and his spiritual power fluctuations had already outgrown Earth’s spiritual power standards, which made it hard for Luo Ji to sense him as clearly as before.

The women didn’t understand the situation, so they were all worried. They found it hard to believe that someone with Ye Luo’s strength needed rescuing, making the news shocking enough to fill them with concern.

Everyone was troubled, precisely because they did not know what to think, which only increased their anxiety, even to the point that Ye Luo’s return was completely overshadowed!

The rumors spread quickly, and as scary as rumors can be, they soon exaggerated to say that Ye Luo could not cope in the Martial Realm, was bullied, and had no choice but to come back!

Some people naturally worried, but many felt relieved!

Human gossip is terrible, especially concerning Ye Luo, so the news spread inevitably fast.

In just a few days, because Ye Luo sadly found that he had no money on him, no Huaxia Currency, and hadn’t brought his ID. Back when Ye Luo suddenly left Earth, he couldn’t have taken his documents, so immediately Ye Luo was in a predicament. Plane? Train?

No way to think about it; he had to rely on buses and even had to gather enough money for fare by treating a few people’s illnesses.

Phone? Ye Luo had no idea that the Mysterious Valley now had even call and internet connectivity.

Therefore, Ye Luo could only keep switching vehicles heading back.

And it certainly required time.

Ye Luo finally understood why he could kill the Corpse King Palace’s enforcers so easily before, because now Ye Luo was extremely weak as well.

The difference in spiritual power quality, if moving from a thin to a dense spiritual power region was manageable, simply requiring some adjustment for faster cultivation speeds.

But moving from a dense to a thin spiritual power area felt unpleasant and limited one’s strength greatly.

Though Ye Luo was brimming with cultivation, he couldn’t exert it at all—of course, since Ye Luo evolved from Earth to the Martial Realm before, he wasn’t entirely debilitated. Given time, Ye Luo could quickly regain his strength, at least to Earth’s maximum allowable level.

Unlike those directly descending from the Martial Realm, struggling to recover and often getting suppressed.

Ye Luo had a sensation as if there was some connection in the spiritual power, almost like someone had set specific rules.

Of course, this was only Ye Luo’s speculation. In truth, this was the Power of Laws. With Ye Luo’s current strength, he was far from touching the Power of Laws, yet somehow he could perceive some of it!

Unfortunately, if Ye Luo were to deeply explore this issue now, he might gain unforeseen insights. But all Ye Luo could think of right now was returning home, so he didn’t dwell on it and only thought about going home.

The vehicles switched one after the other, long-distance and short, yet Ye Luo always had a smile. After all, as the vehicles progressed, he got closer and closer to home!

Finally, Ye Luo reached the Capital City!

The same skies, the same people, seemingly nothing had changed.

Ye Luo got off the bus, wanting to go to the Mysterious Valley, but there were no vehicles heading there, so Ye Luo opted for a taxi.

However, Ye Luo hadn’t stood there long when a luxury car suddenly stopped in front of him.

Initially, Ye Luo thought it might be someone he knew, intending to offer him a lift. Unexpectedly, a man and a woman got out of the car. There was nothing odd about that, but the key was after the woman saw Ye Luo smiling at them, she rudely snapped, ”Hick, what are you staring at!”

What the heck!

Ye Luo was stunned for a moment.

Damn, he returned to Earth—no petals flying, no crowd to welcome him, and now he just got to the Capital City, and someone called him a hick!

Forget it; Ye Luo was in a good mood today, too lazy to bother with them.

So Ye Luo just gave the woman a disdainful glance and ignored them.

However, although Ye Luo didn’t want trouble, trouble still came to him. The woman thought Ye Luo rolled his eyes at her, hurried over to the man, and said with an aggrieved face, ”Honey, that hick bullied me!”

Bullied her?

Not even considering her demeanor—excessive makeup couldn’t hide her dark circles and sallow skin, a typical nightclub regular; even if she lay in front of Ye Luo, he wouldn’t give her another look!

Moreover, Ye Luo was at least seven or eight meters away from her, how could he bully her?

The man’s brow furrowed slightly but surprisingly didn’t make trouble for Ye Luo. Instead, he pulled the woman and said, ”Forget it, he didn’t do anything to you. Let’s go; I have something at the company, I need to hurry there. Didn’t you say you wanted to buy clothes? I’ll go with you first!”

This man wasn’t bad, at least that’s what Ye Luo thought.

Who would know that upon hearing this, the woman started making a scene again, ”Company, company, all you know is the company, when do you ever care about me? Hmph, if this is considered not a problem, then what is? I think you’re just a coward, a useless man!”

Encountering such a woman, it surely was a rare occurrence!

”Hey, brother, do you often come home late at night?”

Suddenly, Ye Luo asked the man.

The man looked at Ye Luo in confusion, not knowing why Ye Luo asked this, but he nodded and said, ”Yes, the company just started, so it’s indeed busy. This is unavoidable.”
