The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 3184: Chapter 3961: About to Be Refined! (Seventh Update)

Yu Chiyao’s eyes were cast down, appearing pitiful and helpless, but her body exuded a dense smoky Heavenly Might, and just one glance would allow someone to feel the aura of the Ancient Empress, elegant and grand, like the ephemeral mists and rains of the sky.

”Go home?”

The Sky-covering Demon Emperor listened to Yu Chiyao’s words and was momentarily stunned; he had not heard such words in countless ages.

”Let’s talk about it later.”

The Sky-covering Demon Emperor shook his head, but his gaze fell on Tian Lang.

At this moment, Tian Lang stood trembling in front of the Sky-covering Demon Emperor.

He completely hadn’t expected that his Sky Escaping Stealth Technique would be seen through by Yu Chiyao.

”Traitor, do you have anything else to say?”

The Sky-covering Demon Emperor glared at Tian Lang, questioning him aggressively.

”Spare my life, my lord; I’ll give back the Emperor Dragon Ball, just don’t kill me, don’t kill me...”

Tian Lang was in a panic, handing back the Emperor Dragon Ball. He was not someone who feared death, but the aura of the Sky-covering Demon Emperor was so overwhelming, crushing everything, that his spirit collapsed, and he immediately kneeled and kowtowed, begging for mercy like a stray dog.

”To force Tian Lang to such a state, this guy’s aura is too fierce.”

The Green Candle Dragon watched this scene, deeply wary of the Sky-covering Demon Emperor’s strength as well.

He knew Tian Lang’s temperament well enough to know he wouldn’t kneel and beg for mercy, even in death.

But the Sky-covering Demon Emperor had mastered the Heavenly Demon Wolf Smoke Blade, and the Fenghuo War Qi emanating from his body was so terrifying it crushed the spirit and will of the Evil Wolf, turning it into nothing more than a dog begging for pity before him.

”Sever one of your arms, and get lost!”

The Sky-covering Demon Emperor’s brows tightened severely as he swung the Demon Blade, slicing off Tian Lang’s arm.

In truth, he wanted to kill him outright, but somehow, in Yu Chiyao’s presence, he didn’t want to resort to indiscriminate killing.

”Thank you, my lord, for sparing my life, thank you, my lord!”

Tian Lang clutched his bleeding arm but didn’t dare have the slightest complaint and hurriedly turned to flee.

And the Emperor Dragon Ball once again fell into the hands of the Sky-covering Demon Emperor.

”Blood dragon, you refine it; this is your destined fortune.”

The Sky-covering Demon Emperor handed the Emperor Dragon Ball to the blood dragon.

The blood dragon’s bloodline aptitude perfectly matched the Emperor Dragon Ball; only he could refine it to unleash its maximum effect.

”Thank you.”

The blood dragon retrieved the Emperor Dragon Ball and began refining it in the air.

The Green Candle Dragon, Jidu Demon Monarch, Nanming Demon Marshal, and others, along with the disciples of all the sects, gazed longingly with bated breath.

But with Yu Chiyao present, no one dared to act rashly.

The presence of the Ancient Empress was simply too overwhelming; anyone who dared to make a move would likely be suppressed and exterminated in an instant.

Buzz buzz buzz!

The Emperor Dragon Ball continued to resonate, with strands of divine light falling upon the blood dragon’s body.

The Sky-covering Demon Emperor squinted his eyes. The refining process had reached its final critical point; in just the time for an incense stick to burn, it would be complete.

”Hey! Such audacity, the Hongmeng Treasure, how can you ants dare covet it?”

At that moment, a sharp voice suddenly rang out.

Only to see a black-clad girl carrying a great sword, stepping on divine light, descending from the horizon.

”Someone from the Upper Realm!”

The Sky-covering Demon Emperor glanced over and immediately sensed the aura of the Upper Realm.

This black-clad girl, carrying a great sword, bore a striking resemblance to Xuanji in both looks and attire, clearly another Attendant by the Empress’s side.

”Why has the Upper Realm Venerate Clan come?”

”This isn’t the Upper Realm’s domain; what does that woman intend to do?”

”Does she also intend to seize the Emperor Dragon Ball? How greedy for the Upper Realm Empress to covet our possession, such an unsightly display.”

On the ground, many disciples of The Nine Evils Demonic Sect began to murmur amongst themselves.

The Outer Realm wasn’t territory of the Upper Realm, yet now the Upper Realm was sending someone to seize the Emperor Dragon Ball, an inconceivable turn of events.

”We’ve heard that the Upper Realm Empress has suffered continuous setbacks in the Divine Kingdom, to the point of even injuring her True Body.”

”The days for the Empress Heavenly Palace have not been going well lately.”

”Seizing the Emperor Dragon Ball, it must be to offset losses in the Divine Kingdom, right?”

Many speculated; recent news of Xuan Jiyue’s setbacks had spread in the Outer Realm, its truth unknown, but now the Upper Realm sought the Emperor Dragon Ball, clearly due to significant losses in the Divine Kingdom requiring compensation from elsewhere.

”Xuanfei, this Emperor Dragon Ball belongs to the Outer Realm. Even you have no claim, nor would the Empress herself have any right to it!”

A thundering voice resounded.

Behold a figure of dignified appearance, clad in the regalia of the Emperor Abyss Palace, tearing through the Void, appearing here.

”The Deacon Sikong of the Emperor Abyss Palace has arrived too!”

”Could it be that Lord Dishi Tian also seeks to seize the Emperor Dragon Ball?”

”Lord Dishi Tian’s divine power is unparalleled, possessing countless treasures, why would he seek profit against us?”

”He must be aiming to thwart the Upper Realm’s scheme.”

The many disciples of The Nine Evils Demonic Sect expressed their astonishment at this new arrival, not expecting the Emperor Abyss Palace to send someone as well.

In the Outer Realm, the Emperor Abyss Palace is a power shrouded in secrecy, rarely showing itself, always hidden in the shadows, quietly manipulating everything.

Dishi Tian is an exalted presence in everyone’s heart, transcending all, suppressing all, sovereign over all. No one dare challenge Dishi Tian’s authority, nor would he ever stoop to such avarice as to compete for treasures.

Technically, should Dishi Tian desire something, just his word would suffice for none be there to contest it.

Now the emergence of the Emperor Dragon Ball has brought the presence of the Emperor Abyss Palace, clearly to prevent the Upper Realm’s plotting, keeping the Emperor Dragon Ball out of their hands.

Any treasure falling into the Upper Realm would inevitably be taken by Xuan Jiyue, never to resurface.

”Sikong Lie, you dare to lay claim to a treasure covet by my Empress?”

Xuanfei drew the huge sword, her gaze now brimming with murder intent.

”By the Emperor Abyss’s Hall Master’s Dharma Decree, I claim the Emperor Dragon Ball. None may interfere.”

Sikong Lie pulled a scroll from his robe, slowly unfurling it, and a majestic Heavenly Emperor’s Aura shrouded the entire sky.

”Ah, it’s Lord Dishi Tian’s presence, kneel quickly.”

Many disciples on the ground immediately kneeled down, as did the Nanming Demon Marshal, Eastern Sword Demon, and Nine Difficulties Demon King, all displaying reverence.

Dishi Tian’s renown is so intense, in countless minds he’s the Supreme Sovereign, so much so that even many elder magic practitioners such as Nanming Demon Marshal would revere and worship him.

Only Green Candle Dragon and Jidu Demon Monarch, with somber expressions, did not kneel.

However, with Dishi Tian’s personal decree, they could no longer contest the Emperor Dragon Ball, risking offense to Dishi Tian’s authority.

The consequences of offending the Heavenly Emperor, not even the Green Candle Dragon dared face.

”If you keep quarreling, the Emperor Dragon Ball will be refined by others.”

Green Candle Dragon remarked coldly, somewhat displeased, inwardly hoping that the Sky-covering Demon Emperor, Sikong Lie, and Xuanfei would clash and all die together, the best outcome.

Sikong Lie and Xuanfei’s expressions changed, focusing intently, suddenly seeing the Emperor Dragon Ball, like jade, slowly embed itself into the blood dragon’s forehead, about to fully integrate.
