Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 99: Chapter 99 Furnace Cauldron

In order to clarify the situation, Ye Haochuan tentatively asked Long Piaoying about Lin Qingxuan’s affairs.

He had thought that the Immortal Aunt would refuse, but after pondering for a moment, she said, ”Now that you’re an Outer Sect Disciple of our Ancient Martial Arts Sect, there’s no harm in telling you.”

Ye Haochuan’s heart immediately grew tense, and he listened intently.

”The reason Lin Qingxuan was targeted by people from Hellfire is that they wanted to capture her to be the furnace cauldron for a Hellfire expert.”

Furnace cauldron?

Ye Haochuan was stunned for a moment: ”What do they need a furnace cauldron for?”

Long Piaoying said gravely, ”As we understand it, this is Hellfire’s extremely inhuman cultivation method, mainly involving capturing those girls with a good amount of spiritual affinity to serve as tools for cultivation by Hellfire experts. Once these girls are captured, they’re not only subjected to humiliation at any moment but also drained of their spirituality until they finally become desiccated corpses...”

Desiccated corpses?

A chilling sensation involuntarily surged in Ye Haochuan’s heart, and the image of the lovely and adorable Lin Qingxuan being captured, used as a furnace cauldron, and ultimately dying a terrible death to become a desiccated corpse even emerged in his mind.

Damn it, this Hellfire truly lives up to its hellish name, having no regard for conscience, committing such atrocities against humanity.

Ye Haochuan clenched his fists tightly, silently swearing that one day, he would uproot this evil sect called Hellfire!

”Actually, besides Lin Qingxuan, there are also other girls under our protection, but simply because Lin Qingxuan has a prominent family background, and our Ancient Martial Arts Sect shares a significant history with the Lin Family, she has been given special protection.”

Ye Haochuan nodded his head, which anyone could have guessed.

After flying for a while longer, Long Piaoying suddenly spoke up, ”Alright, we’ve arrived at the location, let’s go down.”

Ye Haochuan quickly looked over and saw that within the boundless green canopy, a huge crevice had suddenly appeared, as if it split the entire canopy in two, dark and bottomless inside, with only the occasional shadow of a bat flying through the darkness, suggesting a bat colony deep within the crevice.

”Be careful! According to the secret I extracted from Boss Wu, this is a branch location set up by Hellfire in the Haishan area. Now, we’re going to uproot it!”

Under Long Piaoying’s sword flight, the two plunged into the crevice, and sure enough, countless bats flew out from within, sweeping in like a plague of locusts.

”Crap, these bats are terrifying...”

Ye Haochuan could see clearly now, these bats were the size of a fan each, with sharp teeth like blades, and eyes glowing with blood, they turned out to be a rare species of blood-sucking bats.

However, the moment these blood-sucking bats got within three meters of Long Piaoying, they suddenly screamed as if struck by electricity and dropped down.

Ye Haochuan was secretly alarmed; from this, he could see how formidable the strength of this Immortal Aunt was.

The two of them dashed downwards, and the bats they encountered fell like raindrops, unknown in number dead.

Soon, they reached the bottom of the ground.

Clearly, this was a vast cavern that had not been discovered by the world.

The cavern was pitch black, and Ye Haochuan was both nervous and excited.

Long Piaoying warned, ”We don’t know if there are any Foundation Establishment experts of Hellfire here, so we must not let our guard down.”

While speaking, Long Piaoying suddenly produced a Luminous Pearl like pulling a trick, its light brightly illuminating the entire cavern, leaving nothing hidden.

This time, Ye Haochuan did understand, she must have something like a Space Ring on her, otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to produce the Luminous Pearl like a magician.

Before long, the two arrived at a bizarre and gloomy area.

Looking around, one could see the ground teeming with venomous snakes slithering, sending chills down one’s spine.

”Ye Haochuan, I heard from Big Brother that you’ve chosen to pursue both medicine and martial arts simultaneously. This is a great opportunity for you to practice. There are many poisonous snakes here. Now, go ahead of me and clear the way; I will watch your back.”

”Sure, Immortal Aunt.”

Ye Haochuan could not ask for a better opportunity, taking out a longsword, which appeared to be a Talisman Instrument, from the Jadeite Ring. He performed Blood Droplet Recognition on the sword, then in a flash, he executed the Meteor Step, darting forward with a lingering afterimage to clear the way ahead of Immortal Aunt.

Ye Haochuan swiftly killed a large number of venomous snakes. What was clever was that, in his moves, he specifically employed the Lion’s Roar, a Demon Sect Cultivation Technique, to enhance the snakes’ stupor effect.

Long Piaoying observed his actions the entire time, admiring his bravery and strategy, agility and composure, efficient and decisive moves, without any dawdling, and couldn’t help but nod slightly.

Indeed, Long Piaoying had brought Ye Haochuan to this cavern as instructed by Big Brother, intending to foster his growth.

As they walked on, they gradually ventured deeper into the cavern.

A huge sense of danger attacked Ye Haochuan’s mind; shadows of seven or eight human figures flashed by deep within the cavern, emitting an overwhelming ferocity that made it hard to breathe.

”Hah!”

Seeing that they were about to attack him, Ye Haochuan didn’t even have time to think before unleashing the Meteor Fist, sending a barrage of punches straight at them.

The group let out a scream and quickly retreated, but Ye Haochuan wouldn’t let them escape. With his energy sinking into his Dantian, he executed the Lion’s Roar to its fullest extent.

Those guys with generally low cultivation hadn’t even entered the Postnatal Early Stage, and couldn’t withstand this deadly blow, all dropping dead on the spot.

”Damn, Lion’s Roar? Aren’t you ancient martial artists strictly forbidden from learning our demonic sect’s cultivation techniques?”

A chilling voice echoed from deep within the cavern.

”Ye Haochuan, get back here,” Long Piaoying’s voice came from behind at the same time.

Ye Haochuan was already thinking of retreating and promptly flashed back upon hearing the call.

Looking over, Ye Haochuan saw the cavern’s depths teeming with figures, and a series of rapid footsteps began to sound. The one who looked like the leader stood tall and proud in a Cheongsam, his face wore the vicissitudes of one who had seen through the mortal world, and his eyes were particularly bright. In the dim cavern, they shone like black gems.

However, what Ye Haochuan could palpably feel was the oppressive aura emanated by this man as he walked.

Behind him was a wave of burly men, each wielding a longsword or a saber, numbering no less than a hundred, and were surging forward in a fan-shaped tide.

At that moment, the leader shouted at Ye Haochuan again, ”Boy surnamed Ye, who exactly are you? Why do you know the Lion’s Roar technique from our Hellfire?”

Hearing his words, Ye Haochuan felt an unprecedented pressure, but sneaking a glance at Immortal Aunt’s calm demeanor, he bolstered his courage and retorted, ”I’ve slaughtered a disciple of your Hellfire and learned it from him.”

The hundreds of opponents became furious. A disciple of the formidable Hellfire had been killed by an unknown brat—had this kid lost his mind?

At that moment, one of them mumbled to himself, ”Ye Haochuan? I remember we had a disciple named Fang Ba who was killed by someone called Ye Haochuan. Could it be the same person?”

The leader, standing not far away, paused and muttered, ”What?”
