Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 1208: Chapter 1207: Sacrifice of the Gods (1st update)

The Golden Tiger was evidently not yet satisfied, swinging another punch and ending another knight’s life. This cultivation school, renowned for its defense, was nothing more than paper against the Golden Tiger.

It was Ye Haochuan’s first time seeing the Golden Tiger attack with such relish, leaving him momentarily agape.

”Awesome!” roared the Golden Tiger, even more exhilarated. His punches and kicks flowed freely, turning this place into a living hell.

All the knights were annihilated, and the mages were even less able to resist, on the verge of being completely wiped out.

”Wait!” Just as the Golden Tiger’s fist was about to crush the last mage’s skull, Ye Haochuan suddenly shouted.

”What’s the matter?” the Golden Tiger asked, somewhat puzzled.

”I have some questions for him!”

Ye Haochuan looked serious as he slowly walked up to the mage, whose face was already devoid of color, and said, ”I have a question for you. Answer it well, and I’ll let you go!”

He used the same words as he had with Yale, but this mage was clearly not as cowardly as Yale.

The mage was trembling in fear from the Golden Tiger’s attacks, yet he gritted his teeth stubbornly, refusing to utter a word.

”This is troublesome.”

Ye Haochuan retrieved a Silver Needle and casually wiped it, saying, ”There once was someone as stubborn as you, but after being pierced ten times, they obediently said what they needed to say. I wonder if you can hold out for ten times?”

Upon hearing this, the mage’s face turned extremely pale. Although he didn’t know about Ye Haochuan’s medical skills, it was clear Ye Haochuan wasn’t joking.

”Ask your question then!” With a struggling expression, the mage finally acquiesced, maintaining a strong tone to preserve his dignity.

Damn it, insisting I reveal my methods before you obediently comply, really despicable!

Ye Haochuan sneered with contempt and asked, ”What’s the deal with the Divine Sacrifice?”

The shadow behind Lin Qingxuan had always been a knot in Ye Haochuan’s heart. Even Long Xiaotian didn’t know what it was, making him very worried.

Earlier, he had clearly sensed something different about this mage compared to the others. On him, Ye Haochuan vaguely sensed Misi’s presence. Perhaps he might know something.

Sure enough, as soon as the mage heard Ye Haochuan’s question, his expression suddenly froze, and a question blurted out, ”How do you know about this?”

Ye Haochuan, seeing a glimmer of hope, was overjoyed inside and quickly pressed on, ”Don’t worry about how I know, just answer my question!”

”The Divine Sacrifice is naturally a gift offered to the gods.”

”Nonsense, do you really need to say that? Get to the point!” Ye Haochuan snorted heavily.

The mage’s expression showed a slight displeasure, but he still obediently answered, ”The book says those marked are deemed by the gods as sacrifices. As long as the gods need them, they might take their lives at any moment!”

”What?” Ye Haochuan was instantly furious, take their lives at any moment, doesn’t that mean Lin Qingxuan could die at any time?

”Quickly tell me, is there any way to resolve this?”

”Generally speaking, there are two ways!” the mage replied, ”The first method is to find the priest who communicated with the gods back then, offering more and better sacrifices, hoping to persuade the gods to abandon the previous sacrifice.”

Ye Haochuan’s heart suddenly tightened. The priest the mage mentioned was undoubtedly Misi.

No wonder Misi said that if she died, Lin Qingxuan would also be doomed. This was the reason.

But even if Misi hadn’t died, where could they find more and better sacrifices? A Dark Physique is one in a million and not easy to find.

And even if they found one, sacrificing other innocent people to save Lin Qingxuan was too selfish. Even if Ye Haochuan was willing, Lin Qingxuan surely wouldn’t be.

”What’s the second method?” Ye Haochuan asked through gritted teeth, sounding fierce.

”The second method seems simple but is purely from fairy tales!” The mage said solemnly, ”As long as you can defeat the god, you can force him to abandon the sacrifice!”

Ye Haochuan’s heart trembled.

Defeating a god, how could that be easy?

Even though he fancied his combat power was not bad, he could at most defeat someone at the Core Formation Late Stage. Beyond that, there’s the Core Formation Peak and the Nascent Soul Realm—beating a god seemed so distant.

In comparison, the first method seemed like the only feasible option.

”There’s no third method?” Ye Haochuan asked, full of unwillingness.

The mage shook his head and said, ”If the god is not in a hurry to use the sacrifice, they might let them live for a few decades more. But if needed urgently, it could be the next second when they lose their life.”

Ye Haochuan’s heart was both angry and anxious. Suddenly he grabbed the mage, nearly frenzied, and said, ”Since you know so much, you must be able to think of a way. Quick, think of another way!”

”I’m just a first-level priest with only some theoretical knowledge, not even yet recognized by the Chief God, what other method could there be?”

The mage smiled bitterly, ”Unless the Chief God’s exclusive priest you mentioned dies, and I just happen to be chosen as his new exclusive priest, that’s when I might use the first method to save that sacrifice.

However, that’s improbable. Even if you kill that priest now, there’s no certainty that I would be picked by the Chief God.”

Ye Haochuan’s eyes lit up upon hearing this, ”No need to kill, I’ve already done it. You try to communicate with that Chief God now, aim to be picked by him, quickly!”

”Ah?” The mage seemed slightly incredulous, but then he suddenly saw an opportunity.

He had always hoped to become the Chief God’s exclusive priest, because even being the lowest level’s exclusive priest bestows a transcendent status in the Dark Church.

If what Ye Haochuan said was true, that an exclusive priest was just killed, then now was the best opportunity.

The mage grew more excited but then remembered something and his expression turned grim, ”But, to communicate with the Chief God, you need a Holy Bead. Such a peerless treasure can’t be found just anywhere!”

”Holy Bead?” Ye Haochuan immediately took out something resembling a glass ball and asked, ”Is it this?”

Since taking this item, due to the urgent circumstances, he hadn’t had time to examine it closely. Besides, he didn’t know what the Holy Bead was used for.

So after acquiring it, he hadn’t given it much thought until the mage mentioned it now.

The mage’s eyes nearly popped out upon seeing the ball, stammering, ”How... how do you have the Holy Bead?”

Ye Haochuan felt hopeful again, his heart filling with joy. It seemed like the heavens didn’t seal off all escape routes. As long as this mage became the Chief God’s exclusive priest, Lin Qingxuan could be saved.

At this moment, Ye Haochuan could care less about being selfish. At worst, he’d look for some lawbreakers to offer as sacrifices later.
