Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 2628: Chapter 2629: Who Wants to Meet This King?

The Sect Leader coughed lightly, at this moment, he had no choice but to make a statement.

”Wu Xia, what do you think?”

He didn’t express himself immediately, but instead questioned Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu was well prepared, and upon hearing his master’s question, he immediately stood up, ”Currently, we have no way out. Disbanding the Sect might be a path, but that lord is notorious for his vengefulness. With just a word from him, who knows how many sects would hunt us down for him! Not to mention, at least those present here shouldn’t expect to survive!”

As soon as he spoke, many people’s expressions changed, because his analysis was completely correct!

Perhaps before, many held a faint hope, unwilling to think this way. But once Xiao Wu spoke, they had to face reality.

”Although that is true, at least we have hope of escaping. Even if one person manages to escape, it would leave a seed for our Infinity Sect!” An elder immediately said, evidently disagreeing with Xiao Wu’s words.

Xiao Wu didn’t mind and continued with a smile, ”Even if that were the case, it would be a nominal existence for Infinity Sect. How can the remaining seed rebuild the sect? I’m afraid everyone here understands this, but it’s just a faint hope!”

Upon hearing this, many people bowed their heads.

”Hmph, you’re articulate, but why don’t you share the good ideas you have?” The elder asked with a discontented look.

Xiao Wu’s previous words were clearly a counter to him.

Xiao Wu wasn’t in a hurry and cleared his throat, ”Given such a good opportunity right before us, why should we do something foolish? I’ve had the longest contact with this lord, and he is definitely stronger than other second-generation nobles. I’ve already pleaded with him in this matter, and he has agreed to protect us. With his promise, what do we have to worry about?”

”What?”

”Is this true!”

Many cultivators stood up immediately. Their worry stemmed from the fear that Ye Luo wouldn’t intervene in this matter.

However, if Xiao Wu’s word was trusted, it meant something entirely different. Even the most unreliable nobility generally kept their promises!

”Do I have a reason to deceive everyone?” Xiao Wu smiled bitterly.

”Good, from now on, Wu Xia will be the Vice Sect Leader. Sect matters will be handled by him for the time being. Does anyone have objections?” The Sect Leader said with a broad grin.

The crowd glanced at both of them, knowing that objections couldn’t be voiced openly. After all, Wu Xia’s close relationship with the lord entirely affected everyone’s fate.

They also understood that the master and disciple duo were essentially staging a performance to ensure Wu Xia’s rise to the Vice Sect Leader position. After all, in terms of cultivation, even if Wu Xia was the Sect Leader’s disciple, he wasn’t qualified to become the Vice Sect Leader.

Saying the Sect Leader was unaware of this beforehand would be ludicrous. This whole affair was evidently orchestrated by these two.

At this moment, in Ye Luo’s Cave Mansion, everything had calmed down.

Qiong Yao, having just experienced it for the first time, was in a deep sleep, while Ye Luo sat cross-legged to restore his realm.

However, his body was somewhat peculiar, only able to recover to the sixth level of the Earth Martial Realm at most. If the realm improved further, then the two forces would start to clash.

But this was sufficient, as he could elevate his strength temporarily to the Martial King’s realm, and with the power of his physical body, there was essentially no danger.

Regarding the rules of this place, he operated a cultivation technique for a moment to become acquainted.

These days, he hadn’t left the cave, entangling with Qiong Yao and polishing his realm during the intervals, which advanced his Great Saint Physique significantly.

”My lord, it’s not good!”

One day, a disciple called softly outside the Cave Mansion.

Ye Luo chuckled, ”This day arrived later than I expected!”

”You should be cautious. Since that’s a noble, his power shouldn’t be underestimated, and you’re ultimately a fake noble!” Qiong Yao immediately cautioned.

Ye Luo smiled, ”No problem, I’ve already studied it. The power within the token merely boasts the attack force of the Martial King Realm, but the defense is quite extraordinary. It doesn’t affect me. I actually want to go out and see what a real noble looks like!”

Afterward, he went out, with Qiong Yao obediently following behind.

”What’s the matter, causing such a commotion and disturbing the pleasure of this king? Do you have a death wish?”

Upon exiting, Ye Luo started scolding loudly, which was typical behavior for a noble.

”Calm your anger, my lord. It’s like this: the lord who ordered us to annihilate the remnants of Five Peaks Mountain learned of our incompetence and has already come to call us to account!” The disciple hurriedly explained, clearly indicating that the situation was urgent.

”Oh? That’s fine, I was looking forward to seeing what power that guy has. You may lead me there now!”

Upon hearing this, the disciple’s face brightened, and after saluting Ye Luo, he led the way forward.

Facing Infinity Sect’s mountain gate is a large hall. This hall only opens during significant events of Infinity Sect or when important figures visit.

At this time, the hall was surrounded by people outside, but these people weren’t from Infinity Sect; they belonged to several different sects.

These disciples, each with unfriendly expressions, formed a circle around the hall.

However, the interior of the hall contained only a few dozen individuals, appearing much colder.

”You have the audacity, unable to complete such a simple task. I find Infinity Sect has no necessity to exist anymore!” A handsome young master said with a slightly angry demeanor.

His spotless white robe, tender skin, which would make any woman envious, an upright appearance, and an aura of nobility that inspired reverence immediately.

This person was indeed the lord.

”Calm your anger, my lord. Things aren’t as you imagine!” The Sect Leader immediately said in a low voice, his head nearly touching the ground, making it hard to see his expression.

”Hmph, do you think I’m a fool? I heard you received a lord here, didn’t you? Have him come out to see me, and I’ll see who has the guts to provoke me, knowing I’m here!” He grew furious.

Evidently, competition exists within the circle of nobles, and even among them, there must be hierarchy.

”Oh, who wants to see this king?”

Just when the Sect Leader didn’t know how to respond, a lazy voice suddenly came from the entrance of the hall.
