Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 1771: Chapter 1770: Encountering an Acquaintance

The Capital City.

At the moment, inside the Capital City’s hospital, after a full day, Qiao Bing’s condition had slightly improved.

Ah Lang approached Qiao Bing. Seeing that no one else was nearby, he said:

”Sister-in-law, tomorrow I’m leaving Dragon Country.”

”Oh? Ah Lang, where are you going?” Qiao Bing asked.

Ah Lang replied, ”Big Brother ’in life’ had once instructed me that if I ever heard news of his accident, I should head to the Extraterrestrial Battlefield.”

”I want to achieve something there, build a powerful force, and avenge Big Brother.”

Qiao Bing nodded slightly, ”Alright, Ah Lang, go ahead.”

Ah Lang nodded in return. Over these past few days, he had been closely following events in the Martial Arts World.

On the Martial Arts Dark Web and the Martial Arts Forum, news of his Big Brother Lin Dong’s death was everywhere.

Just like Lin Dong, he noted down every single person who had jumped to insult his brother—those who once showed favor to Big Brother, but changed their attitude upon hearing of Big Brother’s death—and said to himself that he wouldn’t let any of them escape.

Of course, he also noticed the warning issued by King Kunlun!

With King Kunlun’s warning and the presence of the Dragon Country War Department and the Martial Arbitration Union, there was no need to worry about the safety of his sister-in-law and the others.

So he could proceed to the Extraterrestrial Battlefield with peace of mind, strengthen himself, and avenge his Big Brother Lin Dong.

Today, when he saw that Sister-in-law Qiao Bing’s complexion had improved slightly, he decided to take his leave.

Qiao Bing did not try to stop Ah Lang, only urging him to be cautious.

Ah Lang nodded again. As he was about to leave, he suddenly whispered, ”Sister-in-law, I have this sixth sense deep in my soul: Big Brother... he might not actually be dead.”

”Perhaps not long from now, he will reappear...”

After saying this, Ah Lang’s shadow disappeared, leaving the place.

After Ah Lang departed, Qiao Bing’s mind was still echoing with his words.

”Lin Dong might not be dead?”

”He might actually reappear?”

A bright light suddenly burst forth from Qiao Bing’s previously lifeless eyes.

It was as if someone in the depths of the desert suddenly saw an oasis, rekindling hope.

”Yes, I must live well. I once promised Lin Dong that no matter what bad news I heard about him, I should continue to live well!”

”Lin Dong, just like Ah Lang, I firmly believe you are not dead. You will definitely come back, won’t you?”

In this moment, Qiao Bing reignited her will to live.

...

Meanwhile, on another side, Lin Dong had also left Southern Capital, Jiangnan Province.

Then, he headed in the direction of Southern Yunnan.

To go to Southborne, one must pass through the direction of Dragon Country’s Southern Yunnan.

He spent roughly a day traveling before reaching Jadeite City at Southborne’s border.

Lin Dong had adopted a new identity. To travel into Southborne, the best approach was to seek out black market personnel in Jadeite City for assistance with documentation.

Jadeite City, being close to Southborne, was somewhat chaotic. The black market was a mixed bag, and as long as the money was in place, arranging such matters was naturally not an issue.

But now came the problem: he had a new identity, which prevented him from using the funds in his previous bank card.

The billions stored in his World Bank account were currently a mere digital number lying untouched within. If he touched those funds, it would expose the fact that he wasn’t dead.

”It seems I’ll need to earn some money first. Traveling abroad, you need money for everything,” Lin Dong muttered quietly to himself.

For Lin Dong, he could easily earn money using his medical arts, but at the moment, he chose not to go that route.

In Jadeite City, the quickest method to make money was stone gambling.

This was the fastest way to make money here, and it was much safer in terms of not exposing his identity compared to practicing medicine.

Soon, he arrived at the largest jade trading market in Jadeite City.

The market stretched across a jade street spanning eight kilometers, housing thousands of jade storefronts as well as various casual street vendors.

As soon as Lin Dong stepped foot onto the jade street, nearby vendors began to enthusiastically call out to him:

”Hey, Handsome, want to try cutting a piece of stone material? The stones here are all imported from the Nephrite Nation. Guaranteed to give high-quality jade!”

”Handsome, come cut my stones—500 per piece! Look, these materials are amazing! Just look at the surface, see how green it is? Surely you’ll get high-quality jade!”

”Mister, come into our jade shop to pick some stone materials. You can’t trust these street vendors...”

”...”

Lin Dong glanced around and saw that none of the stone materials offered by the nearby vendors actually contained any jade.

These stones were very ordinary. They were nothing like what their sales pitches claimed—capable of producing jade.

To be honest, picking stone materials in a place like this had an extremely slim chance of yielding high-quality jade.

He shook his head, paying no attention to the boss’ enthusiasm, and continued walking forward.

After several hundred meters, Lin Dong spotted an enormous jade shop in front of him.

Within the entire jade street, this shop counted as one of the top-tier establishments.

Outside the entrance stood two jade lions carved from high-quality emerald. These lions weren’t small in size either. One jade lion could easily be worth tens of millions.

Having two jade lions casually placed at the shop’s entrance demonstrated the grandeur of this jade shop.

Lin Dong noticed the shop’s name: ’Jewelry King.’

The name of the shop was equally extravagant.

”Looks like this jade shop might be one of the best in Jadeite City.”

”Maybe I’ll find some good stone material inside.”

With this thought, Lin Dong stepped into the jade shop named ’Jewelry King.’

As he entered, he glanced around at his surroundings. To his astonishment, he recognized someone he knew inside.

A stunning woman wearing a body-hugging cheongsam was bending over, carefully selecting jade stones.

The cheongsam accentuated her graceful curves, tempting any man who laid eyes on her to sin.

”It’s Qin Yitian! I didn’t expect to run into her here.” Lin Dong thought to himself.

Indeed, Lin Dong had encountered an acquaintance, the woman, Qin Yitian.

Qin Yitian was the younger sister of Qin Feng from the Nanyang Pill Alliance; she had visited Dragon Country’s Capital City a while back.

Lin Dong had previously interacted with her, so he knew her. However, it had been a long time since he last saw her—he had thought she already returned to Southborne. Unexpectedly, she was here in Jadeite City.

Qin Yitian had returned to Southborne from Dragon Country’s Capital City just two days prior.

She had been present during Lin Dong’s fight with King Kunlun as an observer. With her abilities, she naturally couldn’t comprehend the intricacies of the battle.

But she knew the outcome.

After learning of the result, she left Dragon Country’s Capital City and returned to Southborne.

Now, coincidentally, she had come to Jadeite City’s jade market as well.

Currently, Qin Yitian clearly didn’t recognize Lin Dong.

She didn’t even notice him and kept lowering her head, focused on selecting stone materials.

Lin Dong, however, stared at her, deep in thought.

Just then, Qin Yitian sensed someone’s gaze from behind her. She quickly turned around.

She saw a melancholic man in his mid-twenties gazing intensely at her legs and hips.

Seeing his unabashed stare, Qin Yitian felt irritated.

No man had ever dared to so freely admire her figure like this.

With a slight hint of anger, she snapped, ”Keep staring and I’ll dig your eyes out!”
