Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 1791: Chapter 1790 Rima

After Lin Dong slaughtered the Brahman small leader Azamu, he turned his gaze to the Southborne girl who had been held hostage by him.

He asked, ”Why did these people capture you?”

The Southborne girl was still in shock and only recovered after a long time, responding in fluent Chinese, ”These people are monsters. They want to take us for sacrifices.”

This girl, living in the borderlands, had interacted with many people from the Dragon Country since childhood and was well-versed in the Dragon Kingdom’s language.

She spoke it fluidly and naturally.

Hearing this, Lin Dong frowned deeply.

It appeared the Brahmans were committing atrocities in Southborne, engaging in such heartless acts that the ordinary people of Southborne had come to call them ”monsters.”

But what exactly did this ”sacrifice” mean?

Lin Dong questioned her further.

The Southborne girl answered, ”They capture young girls for sacrifices, offering them to their serpent god.”

”I don’t know the exact details, but I’ve heard it’s terrifying. They strip them naked and send them into the serpent god’s lair for the god to consume.”

”The serpent god devours the sacrificers’ internal organs and is said to even swallow their souls. Afterward, they are enslaved and driven by the serpent god...”

Upon hearing this, Qin Yitian, standing close by, couldn’t help but interject, ”Where did you learn all this?”

She had lived in Southborne for years as the sister of the Alchemy Alliance leader and had always mingled with the Martial Arts World, yet she had never heard of such events.

How could this young girl be aware of such details?

”Ah? I heard about it. I had many playmates, and then one day, some suddenly disappeared. My father and mother said they had been taken away by those monsters...”

Qin Yitian was deeply shaken by the girl’s words. She realized how sheltered she had been during her years in Southborne.

She had believed Southborne was chaotic, but never had a true grasp of the situation until this experience with Lin Dong among the Southborne underclass. Only now did she comprehend how frightening this land truly was.

”What’s your name? Where is your home?” Qin Yitian asked the Southborne girl.

”My name is Rima. I live in the urban village of Bai Xiang City. This time, I was originally traveling with friends, planning to go to the Dragon Country for work. I didn’t expect to be deceived; they tricked me and handed me over to these monsters...”

”If not for my benefactor, my organs would have been eaten by the serpent god. I would have been sacrificed to the serpent god...”

As she spoke, she tried to kneel before Lin Dong.

Lin Dong supported her and noticed she was only about fifteen or sixteen years old. In his own country, girls of this age would still be in high school, experiencing the blooming of youth, the most beautiful time of life.

However, in this chaotic Southborne, they had to contend with cruel survival issues. Their lives were constantly threatened, and their existence depended entirely on their own efforts.

Forget sitting quietly in a bright classroom to learn; even having enough to eat was an extravagant dream for them.

At the moment, Lin Dong sighed inwardly. As someone from a peaceful country, witnessing the struggles of these war-ravaged individuals, he couldn’t help but feel sympathy.

At the same time, he also felt grateful for his powerful motherland.

Qin Yitian also sighed softly, then gently stroked Rima’s head, saying, ”Rima, believe in your country. One day, it will be like your name.”

In Southborne, the name ”Rima” symbolizes hope and rebirth.

She wished for this land of chaos to one day embrace a new dawn.

To step from disorder into order, from barbarism into civilization, from turmoil into peaceful prosperity.

Lin Dong now walked toward the other SUVs and liberated the girls inside. They were bound like animals, their hands and feet tied and mouths sealed shut with black tape.

Most of them were in their teens, blooming like flowers in their youth.

Now freed by Lin Dong, they knelt in gratitude before him.

”Thank you, benefactor. Thank you, benefactor.”

Lin Dong discovered among them several young girls from the Dragon Country.

He asked them, ”How did you end up captured by these people?”

The Dragon Country girls answered Lin Dong’s inquiries.

Each had a different story.

Some had been tricked by friends who falsely promised high-paying work, saying they could make tens of thousands every month in this region. Many came from impoverished families, having dropped out of school early to support their households, only to end up deceived.

Others were kidnapped during their travels here!

One case was particularly absurd—a young woman in her twenties had fallen for a ”rich and handsome” man she met online. When she arranged to meet him in person, she was captured instead.

After hearing these accounts, Lin Dong turned to Qin Yitian and said, ”Miss Yitian, can you ensure these people are safely returned to the Dragon Country?”

”Absolutely,” Qin Yitian replied. ”But first, we must go to Bai Xiang City. Our Alchemy Alliance has people there, and I can use our connections to make sure they’re safely sent back.”

Upon hearing they could be safely returned, the rescued girls broke down in tears of joy. Upon being abducted, they had believed they would never return home, their minds haunted by blood and darkness. Now, the thought of returning to the Dragon Country felt like finding a pathway from hell to heaven.

This overwhelming happiness brought them to tears.

Among the group, some knew how to drive. Thus, Lin Dong and Qin Yitian took the rescued girls, driving the SUVs toward Bai Xiang City.

Having vehicles increased their speed, allowing them to reach Bai Xiang City in just over an hour.

Upon arriving, Qin Yitian immediately sought out people from the Alchemy Alliance.

”Miss Yitian, you’ve finally returned! The alliance leader was very worried when he learned you planned to travel alone to Southborne. He sent numerous experts to search for you. Thankfully, you returned unscathed.”

The man before them was the Alchemy Alliance’s representative in Bai Xiang City.

His name was Zhang Lie, a Dragon Country martial artist and grandmaster-level warrior.

He spoke with great excitement, knowing that once he reported Miss Yitian’s safe return to headquarters, he would receive considerable rewards from the alliance.

And those rewards were always valuable Dan medicines!

This was why martial artists joined the Alchemy Alliance.

It was far easier to obtain Dan medicines through the alliance than through other channels.

To martial artists, Dan medicines held far greater allure compared to wealth or beauty.

This was why the Alchemy Alliance had risen to become one of Southborne’s most formidable organizations in just five years.

Qin Yitian, familiar with Zhang Lie, said to him:

”Zhang Lie, when I was in Southborne, I encountered a group of Brahmans. They had captured several Dragon Country girls. I rescued them.”

”They clearly can’t return on their own. I need you to ensure they are safely sent back to the Dragon Country.”

Zhang Lie quickly replied, ”Yes, Miss! I’ll make sure your instructions are carried out!”

She didn’t elaborate on how the Brahmans had tried to capture her. This matter was something she wanted to discuss with her brother personally.

Her brother, Qin Feng, would ensure justice was served.

Later, Lin Dong and Qin Yitian handed the rescued Dragon Country girls over to Zhang Lie.

With the Alchemy Alliance’s influence in Southborne, safely sending these girls home was not a difficult task.

After ensuring this arrangement, Zhang Lie said, ”Miss, please come rest at my residence. I’ll organize a specialized fleet to escort you to the Alchemy Alliance headquarters.”

Qin Yitian glanced at the young girl, Rima, beside her and responded, ”I’ll escort this girl home first, and then we’ll proceed.”

With a slight smile, Zhang Lie replied, ”Very well. I’ll have my son accompany you.”
