Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 2323: Chapter 2324: Stirring Up a Hornet’s Nest

Afterward, these individuals went to investigate the cause. To eliminate suspicion, Ye Luo and the dozens of cultivators responsible for collecting spiritual liquid were not allowed to leave.

After all, if there was a problem, they would be the most likely suspects.

However, Ye Luo was not panicked. Even if they discovered the issue, what of it? The Plane Origin Liquid had already been absorbed by him unknowingly. Regardless of whether these people would suspect him, even if they did, he had the skills to escape!

Besides, spells couldn’t be used here. Who was he afraid of with his physical strength?

Moreover, with Nuonuo outside the crowd, no one noticed him, making it even easier for him to escape alone.

”This spiritual liquid has undergone a change; it seems something is missing!” The prince of the Third Empire said with a frown.

”Indeed, it appears the spiritual liquid is much lighter now!” The Princess of the Nest Clan looked at the Spirit Lake thoughtfully. ”It’s troublesome, the main effect of the spiritual liquid might be lost!”

Upon hearing this, the expressions of several individuals changed dramatically.

”We can’t act rashly; let’s let an insignificant cultivator experiment.” The elder who accompanied them suggested.

After all, if they acted and the spiritual liquid turned out to have a problem, they would also be suspect.

”Alright, you come here,” the prince of the Third Empire pointed at an old cultivator, who had come to try his luck as his lifespan was nearing its end.

Upon hearing, the old man walked over.

”Take a few drops of spiritual liquid from here and ingest them!” The prince ordered.

”Huh?” The old man was immediately startled.

This spiritual liquid was not something he could ingest!

”What’s with the huh? Drink it, or I’ll kill you right now!” Though young, the prince emitted an aura of brutality, having clearly killed countless people.

The old man had no choice but to take two drops and let them fall into his mouth.

His heart was slightly excited; these two drops were enough to extend his lifespan by several months. Do not underestimate these months; those nearing death would pay any price to live a few more days.

But after consuming, there seemed to be no sensation!

Though the liquid was rich in spiritual power and the strength of law, it had no connection with lifespan!

Could the rumors be false?

”Well? Is there an effect?” The prince of the Third Empire asked, frowning.

The old man then truthfully explained the effects.

”Courting death!” The prince was immediately furious, slapping the old man into pieces instantly!

Of course, his words were not directed at the old man, but rather at the person who tampered with the Spirit Lake. But to vent his inner anger, he killed the old man.

That wasn’t the end. The prince wanted to target the dozens of cultivators next!

However, he was immediately stopped by the Princess of the Nest Clan.

”What madness are you on? Killing them is useless! What can people of their realm do? There’s obviously someone behind the scenes. Killing them is cutting the thread!” The princess said coldly.

Only then did the prince stop. ”If I find out who tampered, no matter who it is, I will have their head!”

”Ah, we should deliberate more on this matter; time is of the essence. Let’s return and report the situation immediately; this is no small matter!” Said an elder beside him.

Then, several people hurriedly left the lakeside, but Ye Luo and his group, having not received orders, would certainly not dare to move.

However, Ye Luo paid no attention to the current events. Instead, he focused on the base.

”Robot, how’s the preparation of the Plane Origin Liquid? When can the scientist be resurrected?” Ye Luo asked.

”This isn’t a simple task. We still need to perform a series of treatments on the scientist’s physical body, and this process absolutely cannot go wrong nor be rushed. If there’s any mistake, his physical body will instantly disintegrate! This process may take two days or even longer!” The robot explained.

Two days’ time, Ye Luo could wait. After all, even if the scientist revived, the development of the base would take time. It’s not like the scientist was a peerless master who could help him dominate immediately; it’s inherently a long-term process.

Ye Luo was concerned about whether the resurrection would be successful!

If it succeeded, all would be well.

At this time, that group of ancient beings finally went mad. After all, the Spirit Lake’s ineffectiveness meant their escape route was cut off! Treasures that increase lifespan are hard to find, and ones with effects as prominent as spiritual liquid are even rarer.

Otherwise, experts from the front three regions wouldn’t have shown up.

”Who did this to the Spirit Lake!”

”I bet it’s those who collected the spiritual liquid; kill them all!”

”I think it’s these young people. Once they arrived, the Spirit Lake changed. Regardless of which great family they belong to, if they don’t let us live, I won’t let them live!”

Immediately, chaos broke out. Some irrational old guys began to move.

Some targeted Ye Luo and the cultivators, while others even targeted the young men of the Third Empire.

These old folks barely had a few days left to live, and with no opportunity left, they couldn’t care about much anymore.

Moreover, these young men came from affluent backgrounds, surely carrying many treasures. Perhaps there might be Spiritual Medicine that extends lifespan, even if not as effective as spiritual liquid, it could extend life by a day.

In the next moment, the battle commenced.

Not only that, once these people activated spells, space fractures were drawn to the scene. Though sparse, they existed, and once appeared, could engulf a dozen cultivators instantly, a truly terrifying sight!

Ye Luo was taken aback by the situation; he hadn’t expected to stir such a hornet’s nest.

In such a short time, countless cultivators had already perished.

Ye Luo wasn’t concerned; it was chaos, so he would just evade. His worry was still about Nuonuo, prompting him to dash toward her direction.

”Kid, why are you running so fast? It seems you’re not just a rank nine martial artist!” Suddenly, the prince of the Third Empire intercepted Ye Luo.
