The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 2754: Chapter 2728: Suppression of Evil Ceremony! (Sixth Release)

Long Jingyan let out a cold laugh, seemingly mocking Ye Chen’s ignorance.

You Xuan’er then spoke, ”Our Extreme Evil Country, since its founding, has had a Slaughter Sword passed down through generations. Legend has it that this Slaughter Sword was personally forged by the fiend who created this world, a Divine Artifact. The Slaughter Sword is capable of Spirit Communication, and to prevent it from escaping while he slumbered, the fiend sealed it with a Sword Suppressing Stone!

This Extreme Evil Country, in fact, exists to suppress that very Slaughter Sword!”

”Therefore, the Slaughter Sword and the Sword Suppressing Stone are extremely important to the Extreme Evil Country. If you, Sir, wish to obtain this Sword Suppressing Stone, it will not be easy and will be extremely dangerous!”

”However, it’s not entirely hopeless...”

You Xuan’er hesitated and said.

”Every year, our royal family holds the Suppression of Evil Ceremony, during which you will have the opportunity to come into contact with this Sword Suppressing Stone and the Slaughter Sword!”

”And this year’s Suppression of Evil Ceremony is in three days!”

”Suppression of Evil Ceremony?” Ye Chen frowned slightly.

”As the name suggests, the Suppression of Evil Ceremony is a ritual to suppress spiritual pressure.”

You Xuan’er gently stirred the dense spiritual pressure in the air with her slender fingers and said, ”Although our Sha Clan has lived in the Extreme Evil Country for many years, and our constitution has changed to endure the strong spiritual pressure, if the spiritual pressure becomes too dense, it can still harm the subjects of the entire Extreme Evil Country.”

”The Sword Suppressing Stone and the Slaughter Sword are sealed in a Holy Land within the Extreme Evil Country, and that Holy Land can only be opened once a year. Only our royal family has the capability to open the gate to this Holy Land!”

”The spiritual pressure in the Extreme Evil Country all comes from the Sword Suppressing Stone, which produces extremely dense spiritual pressure on its own. Therefore, our royal family holds the Suppression of Evil Ceremony every year!”

”After the Holy Land is opened, the royal family sends Holy Envoys into the Holy Land to perform Evil Relief. Evil Relief involves directly absorbing part of the terrifying spiritual pressure from the Sword Suppressing Stone!”

She pointed at Long Jingyan and said, ”Sister Long is one of the Holy Envoys. The concentration of spiritual pressure in the Holy Land is extremely terrifying, and even ordinary members of the Sha Clan would die instantly upon entering it!

One can imagine how dangerous it is to absorb the spiritual pressure from the Sword Suppressing Stone!”

”Moreover, numerous flesh-eating fiends are bred in the Holy Land, so the Holy Envoys must be extremely powerful, at least possessing the strength of the Chaos Realm! Our royal family spares no efforts in training them!”

”Even so, every year, there are Holy Envoys who die during Evil Relief, which is why the position of Holy Envoy is held in extremely high regard in the Extreme Evil Country.”

Ye Chen nodded, his eyes glinting, realizing that if he wanted to obtain the Sword Suppressing Stone, he would have to participate in the Suppression of Evil Ceremony three days from now.

He looked at You Xuan’er and asked, ”How does one become a Holy Envoy?”

You Xuan’er smiled, ”Each time at the Suppression of Evil Ceremony, only twelve people can enter the Holy Land. They are selected by the highest-ranking members of the royal family. If you wish, Sir, I can recommend you to participate in this Suppression of Evil Ceremony.”

Long Jingyan, who was standing nearby, surprisingly did not show any opposition. Originally, she was supposed to participate in this Suppression of Evil Ceremony, but Ye Chen’s strength surpassed hers, making his participation more beneficial for the Extreme Evil Country.

As for whether Ye Chen would take the Sword Suppressing Stone?

Heh, if the Sword Suppressing Stone were that easy to obtain, it wouldn’t have remained there for so many years.

Ye Chen nodded, ”Let’s do it.”

You Xuan’er smiled and said, ”The entrance to that Holy Land is within the Imperial Palace. Sir, would you like to return to the palace with us first?”

”Alright.”

...

With You Xuan’er’s guidance, Ye Chen entered the Imperial Palace of the Extreme Evil Country without any obstacles. Along the way, many people pointed at Ye Chen, clearly curious about this outsider brought back by the Seventh Princess!

At the same time, they were also shocked as they looked at Long Jingyan. The Star River Divine Cloth that Fairy Long usually wore, one of the Supreme Treasures of the Extreme Evil Country, was personally bestowed by the Extreme Evil Country Emperor. On ordinary days, Fairy Long would never take it off. Why was she not wearing it today?

At this moment, Ye Chen sat on the main seat of Xuanxin Palace, under You Xuan’er’s management. Standing respectfully beside him, You Xuan’er asked, ”Sir, would you like some tea?”

If this scene were seen by people of the palace, they might faint from shock!

Most people merely regarded Ye Chen as a pet brought back by the Seventh Princess. Yet now, he was sitting on the main seat, where the ordinarily high and mighty Seventh Princess stood respectfully, offering him tea?

Moreover, she asked if he wanted tea?

The Seventh Princess had never been so respectful to the Extreme Evil Country’s emperor, right!

This is really unbelievable!

Ye Chen was unfazed. He glanced at Long Jingyan with a light smile and said, ”Pour me a cup of tea.”

”You!”

Long Jingyan glared at Ye Chen in anger. Who was she? Even the emperor would need to treat her with courtesy, yet Ye Chen asked her to pour tea!

”What? Unwilling?”

Ye Chen playfully looked at Long Jingyan and said, ”Who was supposed to participate in this year’s Suppression of Evil Ceremony? Have you forgotten? If I don’t drink this cup of tea and I’m not in a good state during the ceremony, absorbing less spiritual pressure, it won’t be myself affected.”

You Xuan’er and Long Jingyan both changed their expressions slightly at this.

”If you behave a little, Sir, I might be able to absorb a bit more of the spiritual pressure.”

Long Jingyan gritted her teeth, looking as if she wanted to swallow Ye Chen whole, but she took a deep breath, turned around, and headed to the tea room silently.

Evil Relief was the mission of the Holy Envoy, and Long Jingyan would never allow her own actions to cause suffering to the people of the Extreme Evil Country.

Simultaneously, Long Jingyan felt a wave of frustration; Ye Chen seemed to be her nemesis in life! In front of him, she always seemed to yield! This feeling, she had never experienced in her life! Ye Chen was the only one who could make her bow!

Ye Chen smiled slightly, thinking it wasn’t excessive to have this extremely cold woman make him a cup of tea since he was already intending to absorb all the spiritual pressure from the Sword Suppressing Stone.

Soon, Long Jingyan returned with a cup of hot tea, and Ye Chen watched her extremely embarrassed and angry demeanor with a more pronounced smile on his face.

But just at that moment, a voice called out from outside Xuanxin Palace, ”The Eldest Prince is here!”

Beyond the palace doors, there came a burst of laughter, and with a flash, two men stepped into the hall.

One of the men was handsome, wearing a yellow robe embroidered with Dragon Patterns. He exuded nobility, and a look in his eyes revealed an authoritative presence. His every gesture and movement emitted the air of someone who had long been in power!

The other man, half a step behind the first, had a wooden expression and ordinary appearance. His hands were covered in sharp black nails, and his whole body emitted a sinister necrosis!

Ye Chen’s gaze swiftly moved from the Eldest Prince’s face to the sinister man’s, his eyes lightly shimmering. This man’s level of cultivation was on par with Long Jingyan’s!
