Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 1363: Chapter 1362 What do you want to do?

Lin Dong was again astonished upon hearing Gu Tongtian’s words.

He gave a bitter smile and said, ”Senior Gu, I have killed Gu Lingjun. If this were to be known by Gu Lingfei, she would probably sever ties with me.”

”However, I promise you, if such an opportunity arises, I will help Gu Lingfei unlock the power of her bloodline.”

Gu Tongtian nodded, then added, ”Rest assured, I will keep this matter hidden for you.”

”Moreover, if that day really comes, I will stand by your side and clarify everything for you.”

The two then continued to chat for quite a while.

Lin Dong inquired about many things concerning his father.

Gu Tongtian shared all that he knew with Lin Dong.

Though now he knew many things about his father, including his past actions, the connections he had made, and the enemies he had garnered,

there was still no clue as to his father’s current whereabouts.

Gu Tongtian’s opinion was consistent with Lin Dong’s.

”A person like Lin Zhantian definitely wouldn’t fall easily. He must still be alive; only his current location remains a mystery,” Gu Tongtian stated.

For Lin Dong to find his father’s whereabouts, he must break through to a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist.

Then, he could let his spirit and soul leave the body and enter the space within the Dragon Ring.

There, he would find the clues his father had left.

But becoming a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist was extremely difficult.

From his chat with Gu Tongtian, Lin Dong learned that breaking through to the Heavenly Realm in the Age of Dharma End was as hard as ascending to the heavens.

It seemed as though an invisible force within heaven and earth had formed a bottleneck, preventing the cultivators of the Age of Dharma End from breaking those shackles.

From what Gu Tongtian told him, since the onset of the Age of Dharma End, the number of martial artists who have broken through to the Heavenly Realm had been few and far between.

And in the recent thousands of years, only Lin Dong’s father, Lin Zhantian, had done so!

Even a matchless juggernaut like King Kunlun had not broken through those shackles, being trapped below the Heavenly Realm.

But according to Gu Tongtian, King Kunlun’s strength was comparable to those in the Heavenly Realm!

”Young Friend Lin, you may well be the second person to break through to the Heavenly Realm following your father. It’s just uncertain how much time you will need!”

”Your father back then took more than thirty years,” Gu Tongtian said.

”Oh? My father took more than thirty years?”

Gu Tongtian nodded, ”To be exact, thirty-six years!”

”With your talent, perhaps you won’t need so many years.”

Lin Dong was only twenty-one years old now, and he had started cultivating just over four years ago.

In such a short period of time, Lin Dong had already reached the Seventh Stage Grandmaster. Following this trend, he indeed had a great chance to reach the Heavenly Realm faster than Lin Zhantian.

But this could not be said with absolute certainty.

Because breaking through to the Heavenly Realm also depended on opportunity!

The two continued their chat, talking until dusk, before Lin Dong finally got up to take his leave.

”Senior Gu, I truly thank you for this time. You’ve enlightened me greatly about my father,” said Lin Dong, bowing with sincere gratitude.

Through this conversation with Gu Tongtian, Lin Dong learned many secrets about his father.

He also learned about the enemies who had acted against his family twenty-one years ago!

Hidden Clans, including Kunlun and the Qin Clan of the big family!

International organizations, like the Nine-Headed Society!

Big families, like the Lin Family from the Capital City!

On the individual front, there was King Kunlun!

And there was Chen Beiming from the Chen Clan of Jiangbei!

Now that Chen Beiming had been exterminated by him, Lin Dong would not let the others off either!

After leaving the Gu Family’s Old House, Gu Tongtian watched Lin Dong’s retreating figure and sighed with emotion,

”Two decades pass in the blink of an eye, the era belonging to Lin Zhantian has faded. Next, it will be your era, Lin Dong!”

Just as Lin Dong stepped out of the Gu Family’s Old House and approached the main gate, Gu Lingfei was already there waiting for him.

Since their camping trip, Gu Lingfei’s feelings for Lin Dong were no longer hidden, becoming incredibly proactive.

”Teacher Lin Dong, what did my family’s Old Ancestor want to see you for?”

Gu Lingfei knew that there was an Old Ancestor in the Gu Family’s Old House, and she had seen him a few times. He was quite kind to her.

When she was younger, he had offered to teach her martial arts, but unfortunately, it seemed she had no talent for it, so after a few lessons, he gave up.

This Old Ancestor held a high status within her Gu Family, and her father revered him immensely.

She was somewhat curious as to why the Gu Family’s Old Ancestor would want to see Teacher Lin Dong alone.

Facing Gu Lingfei, Lin Dong felt a bit uneasy.

Ever since he had killed Gu Lingjun, Lin Dong found he couldn’t face her normally anymore.

He sighed quietly in his heart and answered softly,

”Your family’s Old Ancestor knows my father and told me some things about him.”

”Ah, our Old Ancestor actually knows your father,” Gu Lingfei exclaimed in surprise.

”Yes, Lingfei, I’m leaving now,” Lin Dong said, feeling a bit uneasy about staying with Gu Lingfei any longer.

Gu Lingfei nodded, ”Teacher Lin Dong, are you also going to the Capital City in a couple of days? Shall we go together then?”

This time, Gu Lingfei was set to go to the Capital City to take Elder Wang, Wang Taisui, as her Teacher!

She timed it just right to head for the Capital City with Lin Dong.

Lin Dong shook his head, ”I have to go with the people from the War Department.”

”Is that so.” Gu Lingfei sounded somewhat disappointed.

Seeing this, Lin Dong changed his tone, ”You can come with us from the War Department, too.”

”Ah? That would be great!” Gu Lingfei was overjoyed, and they agreed on the specific time to go to the Capital City together.

The time was set for eight o’clock the day after tomorrow!

She would head directly to the War Department then.

By the War Department’s airplane, a group of people would be sent to the Capital City!

After Lin Dong had left, Gu Lingfei returned home and continued trying to contact her brother Gu Lingtian.

But the phone kept showing a busy signal.

”Where has my brother gone? He’s not answering calls, not replying to texts, and in two days I’m heading to the Capital City. It’s as if he’s disappeared. Couldn’t he at least see me off?” Gu Lingfei muttered.

Her relationship with her brother Gu Lingjun was very good.

The two siblings grew up together. Although Gu Lingjun’s covert identity was that of the Saint Heir of the Hall of Dark King, he was unconditionally doting towards his younger sister.

As the Saint Heir of the Hall of Dark King, he may have committed many evil deeds, but in the eyes of Gu Lingfei, he was still the righteous young Divine Doctor!

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded beside her ear.

”Lingfei, come to the Old House. I have something to discuss with you.”

That was actually the voice of the Old Ancestor.

Hearing this voice, Gu Lingfei hurriedly went into the Gu Family’s Old House.

Then she saw their Gu Family’s Old Ancestor.

Gu Lingfei felt a closeness to the Old Ancestor, smile and asked, ”Old Ancestor, do you need something from Lingfei?”

Gu Tongtian laughingly said, ”It’s nothing major, just to talk to you about your brother.”

”Oh? My brother, what’s happened to him? Where did he go?” Gu Lingfei asked anxiously.

”He’s left, chosen by the Immortal Door; he probably won’t return home for a few years. He asked me to pass on the message to you,” Gu Tongtian lied for the first time in hundreds of years.

Gu Lingtian was overjoyed, ”That’s fantastic, my brother’s dream since he was little was to be chosen by the Immortal Door.”

”But why didn’t he say goodbye before he left?”

”There wasn’t enough time, he couldn’t bid you farewell,” Gu Tongtian continued.

”Oh, I see. Although I’m happy for him, I don’t know when the next time I’ll see him is,” Gu Lingtian sighed.

”People must grow up, he has his path, and you have yours...” Gu Tongtian said leisurely.

Gu Lingfei nodded firmly, ”What you say is true, Old Ancestor, and I will also work hard for what I want to do!”

”Lingfei, what is it that you want to do?”

”Me? I want to live out this life by someone’s side. Also, like him, to learn the Medical Arts and cure the sick...”
