The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 3964: Chapter 3964: Downfall, Inevitable (Third Update)

For the first time, a smile appeared in Qin Xiaofeng’s eyes. He remained silent but glanced towards Huang Qi.

Huang Qi understood and said to Lin Jianqing, ”Master Lin, if you rashly lead your troops into the Vicious Sea, it might be counterproductive. Why not join us in entering the Vicious Sea together?

As long as there are no more than three late-stage Qiankun Realm individuals on each merchant ship, the hidden rules of the Vicious Sea won’t be triggered. Even with Master Lin, myself, and a tribute from Beihan Commerce, we should be able to handle most of the forces within the Vicious Sea.”

Though Qin Xiaofeng spoke of charging into the Vicious Sea, he wouldn’t do it unless absolutely necessary. However, apart from Huang Qi, the strength of other late-stage Qiankun Realm tributes from Beihan Commerce wasn’t particularly strong. Huang Qi, along with two tributes, might not stand much chance against some top-tier pirate groups in such a place as the Vicious Sea!

The most critical point is that when it really comes to life-and-death battle, these tributes, except for Huang Qi, won’t fight with all their might and will instead focus on self-preservation.

But now, with Lin Jianqing, the situation changes completely!

Although Lin Jianqing is also in the late-stage Qiankun Realm, martial artists who practice Sword Dao inherently possess combat strength that surpasses the same level, and Lin Jianqing is a peerless talent in Sword Dao. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to serve as the Law Enforcement Hall Master.

More importantly, Qin Xiaofeng, who has been in the business world for so many years, can clearly see Lin Jianqing’s feelings towards his daughter.

Qin Hongyue might not have mentioned any spies infiltrating the West Sea in her Spiritual Communication, but in Qin Xiaofeng’s view, they might have died in battle with the pirate group. Even if they are alive, it’s not his concern; what matters most now is ensuring Qin Hongyue’s safety!

After all, Qin Xiaofeng is a businessman, not a rogue. His anger won’t lead him to act rashly.

Moreover, another key point is that with Lin Jianqing joining, it’s possible to leverage Guanghan Palace’s power to solve a critically important problem!

Upon hearing this, Lin Jianqing pondered for a moment before nodding. Even if he wanted to lead troops into the Vicious Sea, the West Sea Guanghan Palace wouldn’t agree.

...

In the midst of the Vicious Sea, an island vast in area and rich in verdant vegetation, with many exquisite pavilions and palaces built, resounded with the joyful laughter of women, presenting an atmosphere of harmony and joy. If anyone saw this scene, they would find it hard to believe there is such a place within the Vicious Sea?

This island, which is at odds with the Vicious Sea, actually belongs to an entity that terrifies countless trade associations.

A woman with a supremely graceful figure, holding a jade talisman, entered a grand and imposing hall.

On the main seat within the hall sat a man with an extremely robust physique and a bald head covered with a beard, whose skin faintly revealed dark red scales!

This person is the lord of the island, known as Zhou Ji, the Chi Lin King!

Surprisingly, Zhou Ji was surrounded by a dozen women, massaging his shoulders and legs. Although these women weren’t exactly peerless beauties, each one was quite charming!

Women are very rare in the Vicious Sea, not to mention those with attractive looks!

Yet Zhou Ji had so many charming women around him?

This demonstrates the extent of his power!

In the Vicious Sea, keeping so many women is no easy feat.

At this time, the woman holding the jade talisman bowed to Zhou Ji and said, ”Lord, someone named Xu Ling is looking for you.”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ji raised his eyebrows. Although Xu Ling’s power was far inferior to his own, Xu Ling possessed the Golden Pupil Ability, capable of discovering things even late-stage Qiankun Realm individuals couldn’t see, acting as a kind of intelligence broker in the Vicious Sea.

After a moment of silence, Zhou Ji nodded and said, ”Bring the jade talisman.”

He took the jade talisman and said, ”Xu Ling, what do you seek from this lord?”

Though Xu Ling is the leader of a pirate group, he amounts to nothing in Zhou Ji’s eyes. Zhou Ji was merely curious about what Xu Ling might have sent a Spiritual Communication for.

Xu Ling laughed, ”Chi Lin King, have you heard of the name Qin Hongyue?”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ji’s eyes instantly brightened!

Why had he gathered so many women?

It’s precisely because Zhou Ji is extremely lustful!

Even more so than Shi Fei!

Moments later, Xu Ling set down the jade talisman and sneered, ”Qin Hongyue, since I cannot have you, I will simply destroy you.”

He knew that the more beautiful a woman was in Zhou Ji’s hands, the worse the fate. Someone like Qin Hongyue, comparable to a Heavenly Human, likely wouldn’t last more than three days!

On Red Phosphorus Island, Zhou Ji suddenly stood up and shouted loudly, ”Everyone, follow me to sea!”

Cheers erupted, and soon, four warships emblazoned with the red engravings of the Flood Dragon Group sailed out into the sea with great momentum!

However, the most terrifying thing wasn’t these four warships, but the two massive ferocious beasts accompanying the ships!

These ferocious beasts emanated the aura of late-stage Qiankun Realm!

...

A streak of green light raced across the water, and upon close inspection, it was a green warship. At the bow stood the figures of a man and a woman, none other than Ye Chen and Qin Hongyue.

Though they had overcome numerous challenges, their expressions showed no trace of relaxation, but were rather solemn. Until they left the Vicious Sea, no one knew what might occur.

Suddenly, Ye Chen halted the ship abruptly, his expression changed slightly as he looked in a particular direction. Seeing this, Qin Hongyue frowned and was about to ask the reason for stopping the ship when the shadows of four warships emerged distantly within her vision!

”Damn it!”

Even Qin Hongyue, usually composed, was somewhat agitated. The crises they had encountered on this journey through the Vicious Sea were simply too numerous!

This pirate group had four ships, their strength seemingly greater than Shi Fei’s Black Fin Group!

Even Ye Chen furrowed his brows tightly, his face extremely heavy as he slowly said, ”There is a terrifyingly powerful martial artist in this pirate group, along with two late-stage Qiankun Realm ferocious beasts. We’re in trouble...”

He might have repelled Xu Ling, but that doesn’t mean he could elude the truly strong ones!

Moreover, now he faced three strong adversaries?

Even someone as tenacious as Ye Chen couldn’t help but feel a slight sense of helplessness, while Qin Hongyue’s face turned pale!

Despite Ye Chen being extraordinary beyond her imagination, she was well aware that Ye Chen’s strength was far from reaching even the middle-stage Qiankun Realm!

Suddenly, she produced a Dragonslayer Sword from her hand, and with a swift motion, she aimed it at her own heart!

Ye Chen’s pupils contracted, extending his hand to pinch the blade between two fingers.

Qin Hongyue remarked blandly, ”For me to die, you should know clearly, we have no hope left. Rather than fall into the hands of these pirates, it’s better to die!”
