Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 1417: Chapter 1417: She’s My Wife! (2nd Update)

The Spirit Qi Great Sword swept in, and Fan Qingyin instinctively wanted to dodge. But with her Core Formation Mid-Stage strength, how could she possibly escape the strike of a Nascent Soul Late Stage master?

”Am I going to die?” Fan Qingyin’s face showed despair, and she seemed lost in thought, forgetting to make a final stand.

Fan Qingyin closed her eyes, ready to welcome death.

”Bad guy, see you in the next life!”

”Bad guy? Are you talking about me?”

A familiar voice suddenly rang out. She abruptly opened her enchanting eyes and saw a person standing in front of her, holding a sword in defense.

”Haochuan? Why are you here?” Fan Qingyin asked in surprise.

”Shouldn’t I be asking you that? Fan Qingqing!” Ye Haochuan said word by word.

”You... how do you know?” Fan Qingyin blushed slightly and asked in confusion.

”From the first time I saw you, I felt you were very familiar. I just didn’t expect you to be the one. You’ve really fooled me!” Ye Haochuan pouted.

He was still puzzled about how Fan Qingyin had managed to obscure his Perspective Eyes.

”I...” Fan Qingyin felt a bit guilty but soon pouted and hummed charmingly, ”I just tricked you, what can you do?”

”What can I do to you?” Ye Haochuan laughed, ”At most, I can reward you with ten billion descendants, letting you skip your period for ten months!”

”You ... scoundrel! Who wants your ten billion descendants...” Fan Qingyin shouted charmingly, blushing.

”You two are enough. Do you really think I, this old man, don’t exist?” The elder suddenly huffed coldly.

Fan Qingyin paused, remembering the crisis in front of her.

But she found it strange that although the elder seemed to be scolding, his words lacked some killing intent.

She wondered, but then heard the elder suddenly ask Ye Haochuan, ”Boy, which unfilial son of mine are you descended from? What’s your name?”

Your son’s descendant? As if you deserve to be my ancestor?

Ye Haochuan laughed slightly in his heart.

As he thought, this guy was indeed the ancestor of the Xue Family.

Upon hearing the elder’s words, Ye Haochuan understood. The map he held was likely drawn by this old man.

This map was passed down to the Xue Family’s descendants. As for that token, it should be used by this elder to identify the Xue Family descendants.

With this guess, Ye Haochuan took out the token the moment he appeared. The elder saw the token and urgently dispersed the Spirit Qi Great Sword.

The process seemed simple, but verifying this guess was indeed risky.

Ye Haochuan suddenly appeared in front of the Spirit Qi Great Sword. If the elder hadn’t dispersed the sword, with his current means, he would most likely die under it.

Fortunately, he guessed right! Not only did he not perish, but he successfully saved Fan Qingyin’s life.

”I’m called Xue Tao. Are you the Xue Family ancestor?” Ye Haochuan pretended to be polite.

”Xue Tao?” The elder did not respond immediately but pondered carefully.

The next second, his expression changed suddenly, and he grabbed Ye Haochuan’s neck, lifting him up.

”You’re lying to me! The young girl clearly called you Haochuan just now; how could you be called Xue Tao?”

Blast, how did he forget this detail?

Ye Haochuan cursed internally, but his mind raced, and he suddenly spoke urgently, ”I am surnamed Xue, named Tao, styled Haochuan!”

The elder suddenly froze. He lived a hundred years ago, and in his era, some people indeed took style names.

”Is what he said true?” The elder was still slightly doubtful and asked Fan Qingyin.

Fan Qingyin nodded quickly, already admiring Ye Haochuan’s quick wit.

Still half-believing, the elder released Ye Haochuan.

”Since you’re my Xue Family descendant, why didn’t you bring the key to open the door, and came alone?” The elder said with mild reproach.

”Key?” Ye Haochuan’s mind worked quickly, instantly clarifying the situation.

This old man presumably failed to find the key initially and entrusted his descendants with the task. He instructed them to find the key and bring it here. The map ensured they would not be killed by traps in the secret passage while delivering the key.

It’s no wonder that after descending from that place, he encountered no traps. It seems the entire route’s mechanisms were removed by this old guy.

Ye Haochuan thought to himself.

He also figured out another issue.

Using the five locust trees as a reference should be because the old man didn’t expect to wait long. But he never thought it would be a hundred years.

To wait in a place for a hundred years, this guy is indeed extraordinary. If not deeply obsessed, he must truly be a madman.

With this thought, Ye Haochuan quickly organized his words, ”You misunderstood. She is my wife. The key I found was on her. But we got separated and didn’t arrive at the same time.”

While speaking, he winked at Fan Qingyin. Hearing the word ”wife,” Fan Qingyin shuddered slightly and fell into her thoughts.

Recalling Ye Haochuan and Fan Qingyin’s earlier ”intimate dialogue,” the elder instantly believed it about eighty percent.

”If that’s the case, won’t you hand the key to this old man?” The elder reluctantly released Ye Haochuan.

Fan Qingyin furrowed her brows wildly, hesitating.

”Qingyin, this is whom I often mentioned to you as the Xue Family ancestor. The map I have was left by him.”

Ye Haochuan signaled to Fan Qingyin and said with a smile, ”This key should have been given to him. Hand it over quickly!”

Fan Qingyin clenched her silver teeth, very reluctant.

Seeing this, Ye Haochuan grew anxious. This old man was at least Nascent Soul Late Stage, not someone they could match.

As important as the Secret Treasury might be, it can’t be more important than life.

Choosing momentary submission over stubborn defiance was far wiser.

”Qingyin, what’s the matter?” Ye Haochuan feigned concern and approached her, whispering, ”Hand it over, and we’ll think of a way to get it back later!”

He didn’t speak out loud but moved his lips. Although Fan Qingyin was still, she understood Ye Haochuan’s meaning.

”Enough, not handing it over only let my life’s hopes down for Senior Yin’s expectations. But now, it’s not just my life, but also his!”

Fan Qingyin whispered faintly, finally seeming to come to terms. She took out a pear-shaped stone marked with blue patterns from her ring and handed it to Ye Haochuan.

Ye Haochuan did not hesitate and handed the stone to the elder.

Seeing the stone, the old man immediately abandoned all previous doubts. His withered face miraculously bloomed with a smile!

He placed the stone in a recess on the back wall, and as it was set, the stone door suddenly clicked and slowly began to open...
