The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 2543: Chapter 2517: Burning Heaven’s Wrath (Four Updates)

Upon hearing that, the elder closed his mouth, his expression a bit gloomy, and he stopped responding.

Soon after, Ye Chen followed the elder to find Dean Ge Qing.

Upon seeing Ye Chen, Ge Qing also sighed, saying, ”Ye Chen, how... how have you come back!”

”Dean!”

”Why is the atmosphere of the academy so off, so still and solemn?”

Ye Chen asked urgently, feeling somewhat uneasy, yet he still inquired, ”How is Old Wu? Why haven’t I seen him?”

As soon as these words were said,

Dean Ge Qing’s expression became even more mournful, as he let out a long sigh and said, ”Ye Chen... Old Wu... Old Wu has passed away! Please accept my condolences.”

Old Wu was also one of the top figures of Divine Fire Academy, whose funeral had just been held. Hence, these days, the atmosphere in Divine Fire Academy has been extremely still and solemn. The disciples dared not jest or rage, aware of the severity of the situation!

”Dean, Old Wu is my master! His lifespan hadn’t ended...”

”Why did he suddenly die?”

Ye Chen’s voice was extremely low, his gaze downturned, like a freshly awakened male lion.

Suppressing the murderous intent and anger in his heart, he asked, ”Is it possible that a power that I offended in the Lingwu Continent became bold enough to target my master?”

”Ye Chen!”

”I understand your feelings.”

”But do not stir up trouble, they are people you can’t afford to provoke!”

Dean Ge Qing let out a helpless sigh and said, ”I cannot disclose the information to you, to avoid drawing you into disastrous trouble. This was also Old Wu’s wish before his death – he hoped you would never learn of this matter. Moreover, Old Wu asked me to give you something.”

Having said that, he took out an extremely simple-looking stone and said, ”I don’t know the purpose of this stone, but it was left to you by Old Wu. Please, take it.”

He placed the stone into Ye Chen’s hand, then turned around and left.

Ye Chen was currently in the Divine Kingdom, during his development phase. Knowing his character, if he learned the truth, he would likely seek justice.

Therefore, Dean Ge Qing dared not tell Ye Chen, to avoid Ye Chen looking for trouble and meeting an untimely end.

This was his line of thinking.

Ye Chen didn’t press for answers and took the simple stone, then left Divine Fire Academy.

The murderous intent and anger in his heart he forcefully suppressed. Just as he stepped out of the academy gates, preparing to pay homage to Old Wu in the back courtyard, he ran into the black-clad Xia Ruoxue.

Clearly, Xia Ruoxue was here representing Ye Chen’s visit to Divine Fire Academy.

”Ye Chen... you... how have you come back! Aren’t you in the Divine Kingdom?”

Xia Ruoxue’s eyes trembled, shimmering with some tears.

The next second, she tightly embraced Ye Chen.

Although Ye Chen hadn’t been gone to the Divine Kingdom for long, Xia Ruoxue’s longing grew by the day!

”Xia Ruoxue! What exactly happened, I sensed something was wrong in the Divine Kingdom, which is why I came back!”

Ye Chen paused for a moment, then asked, ”Do you know how my master, Old Wu, died?”

Xia Ruoxue nodded slightly, gazing at Ye Chen. After a long hesitation, she said, ”Dean Ge Qing asked me not to tell you.”

”But as your woman, I understand you. I choose to break my promise and tell you.”

She sighed softly and said, ”Old Wu originally came from the Divine Kingdom, the one that holds the utmost supremacy, where you currently are!”

”Old Wu was once a highly renowned artifact forger in the Divine Kingdom and had refined numerous saint artifacts and ancient artifacts!”

”But due to some matters, I have come to Lingwu Continent and been in seclusion within Divine Fire Academy, intending to rid myself of those grudges and feuds from Divine Kingdom!”

”However, a few days ago, Old Wu accidentally refined a special weapon, which was quite mysterious. News of Old Wu forging this weapon reached Divine Kingdom, and soon a family called Han arrived, among whom was a self-proclaimed genius named Han Feng, who demanded Old Wu to forge for the Han Family!”

Xia Ruoxue slowly recollected: ”Old Wu was unwilling, but Han Feng insisted on taking him away. That Han Feng is considered to be a young elite, and to my amazement, he is a late-stage peak of the Great Void Realm. He must have encountered many fortuitous adventures!”

”Just like that, Old Wu didn’t want to go, and in a fit of rage, Han Feng...tortured Old Wu!”

”In the eyes of the Han Family of Divine Kingdom, it is the highest honor for anyone to forge weapons for them.”

”But Old Wu had sworn never to step foot in Divine Kingdom again, preferring death over compliance.”

”After Old Wu died, someone from the Han Family even used a seal to control Old Wu’s red coffin, preventing his burial... therefore...”

”Bastards!” Ye Chen cursed, a towering anger rising in his heart, and said: ”Divine Kingdom’s Han Family? How come I never heard of them while in Divine Kingdom? No matter, regardless of the Han Family’s background, I, Ye Chen, vow today that the entire Han lineage will be annihilated, leaving no one spared!”

With Ye Chen’s angry roar spreading out!

All within Divine Fire Academy sensed Ye Chen’s powerful aura, far surpassing that of the young man from Han Family before!

”This!”

”This, Ye Chen is...”

While a group of deans and elders were still in shock.

Ye Chen’s Heaven Splitting Power manifested, and he directly lifted Old Wu’s red coffin and set out for Divine Kingdom!

As a disciple of Divine Extreme Sect, he naturally had the right to enter Divine Kingdom!

But at this moment, in his heart, he was not representing Divine Extreme Sect!

He represented only one person, Old Wu!

Although he had only studied weapon refining under Old Wu for a few days, those days were one of his most precious treasures!

A teacher for a day is a father for a lifetime!

”Master, I am sorry, today your apprentice will personally take you to Divine Kingdom for revenge!”

...

Ye Chen, carrying Old Wu’s coffin, emerged from the Spatial Passage, stepping directly onto the land of Divine Kingdom!

The Han Family may not be considered a great family, but he obtained the whereabouts of the Han Family immediately after leaving Prophecy Pavilion; they were located within Tiankun City!

Ye Chen headed straight for Tiankun City!

Within Tiankun City!

It was exactly the moment of festivity and celebration.

Today was the day Han Family Ancestor Han Shantai emerged from seclusion, this existence of the Second Level of Disaster Slaying Realm has made the Han Family’s name resound throughout Tiankun City in Divine Kingdom. Tiankun City might be just one of many cities in Divine Kingdom, and not very large, but with such an ancestor’s protection, the disciples of Han Family were exceedingly overbearing!

Today!

It was also the day the ancestor broke through his realm upon emerging from seclusion, naturally, it called for widespread announcement and grand feasting!

Outside the City Lord’s Faction, countless Han Family guards in festive attire held red jade tokens in their hands, embedded with considerable wealth, awarded to every subordinate of the guests attending the feast.

”Welcome Divine Mountain Sect’s Ancestor!”

”Welcome Lin Family Ancestor!”

”Welcome Blood Saber Sect’s Sect Master!”

Two young servants at the front gate, while checking the invitations of guests from all directions, also shouted loudly to highlight the identity and status of the arrivals!

Those who came were leaders like sect masters and ancestors, and naturally, there were many disciples and elders accompanying them; the Han Family had also sent many people to welcome these guests to their seats!
