Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 1613: Chapter 1613: Leading the Way

”What? Did I hit the mark, so now you want to kill me to silence me?”

Ye Haochuan laughed fearlessly; the more Gu Shun acted this way, the more it revealed his guilty conscience.

Furthermore, from Ye Haochuan’s perspective, thinking that these Core Formation Stage Inspection Group members could capture him was nothing short of a ridiculous dream.

”Alas, Gu Shun, you truly disappoint us.”

Suddenly, a soft sigh echoed in everyone’s ears, followed by the emergence of two tall figures in the middle of the scene.

”Sect Master, Director Yang.”

Seeing the two appear, everyone present was startled, and after recognizing who they were, they all respectfully greeted them.

However, Gu Shun and Niu Fang’s faces turned ashen, witnessing the arrival of the two top experts from Xuanmen. They sensed a bad omen.

Ye Haochuan, seeing Yang Sen and Ye Hao appear, was somewhat surprised. He had only informed Yang Sen, but didn’t expect Yang Sen to bring Ye Hao along.

”Gu Shun, you have let down my expectations of you!”

Ye Hao looked at Gu Shun with deep disappointment. He had promoted Gu Shun to Chief Inspector of the Inspection Group, intending to train him earnestly and later assign him greater responsibilities. Unfortunately, the current events made Ye Hao see Gu Shun’s true nature.

”Sect Master, I only wanted to bring Ye Haochuan back to assist in the investigation, nothing more. I...”

Hearing this, Gu Shun’s face turned ghostly pale instantly, the swift change akin to the master of Sichuan opera needing to write an epitaph of respect.

”No need to explain; we’ve seen it all before. Even if you explain, it won’t help.”

Ye Hao gently swung his palm, shattering Gu Shun’s Dantian, then ordered the Inspection Group members present to restrain Gu Shun.

Gu Shun at this moment was utterly dumbfounded. He stared blankly at his trembling hands, feeling as if he were in a dream.

”Impossible, the Sect Master regarded me so highly; why wouldn’t he give me a chance to explain and instead cripple my cultivation? Impossible, I am the Chief Inspector of the Inspection Group. Even if I committed a crime, I should have a chance to appeal.”

”This must be a dream, yes, it must be...”

”But... why does it feel so real...”

It wasn’t until he realized he was dragged far away, that he suddenly snapped back to reality. The throbbing pain around him proved it wasn’t a dream, but reality.

”How could it be? How did it come to this?” he muttered continuously, his expression turning bewildered and regretful.

Ye Haochuan’s assumption was actually incorrect; Gu Shun was not an Evil Sect spy, but he had accepted numerous bribes from the Niu Family over time, thus always defending them.

As the bribe-taking increased, the Niu Family also had leverage over him. It was because of this hold that he continued to aid the Niu Family even when they were potentially involved with the Evil Sect.

He never anticipated that his once promising career and hard-earned cultivation would all dissipate because of the Niu Family.

Gu Shun was taken away, and as for the Niu Family members present, whether it was Niu Fang, those guards, or even that green-clothed servant, they were all controlled by the Inspection Group members.

”Sect Master, Director Yang, what is the meaning of this?”

Just then, a group of the Niu Family experts rushed out from the Niu Family compound, including the Family Head, Elders, Guest Elders, etc.

”Patriarch Niu, since you’re here, you might as well stay.”

Ye Hao calmly nodded at the arriving Niu Family members, then suddenly unleashed the formidable aura of his Nascent Soul Peak.

”Sect Master, you... what are you planning to do?”

Patriarch Niu looked at Ye Hao and Yang Sen before him, his face full of fear. He knew there was still a Lord Rui’er hidden within the Niu Family. If Ye Hao and the others found out, the Niu Family would surely be finished.

”What am I doing? I came to see what you were up to. Our Xuanmen has been honorable towards your Niu Family, but can your Niu Family say the same to us?”

Ye Hao’s presence emanated majesty without anger, and the overwhelming aura intimidated the Niu Family members to the point where they didn’t dare to breathe heavily, fearing to anger Ye Hao.

”Ye Haochuan, the words you told Director Yang before, are they true?”

Ye Hao suddenly turned, his piercing gaze falling upon Ye Haochuan.

”Sect Master Ye, everything I said is true, and up to now, the Long Alliance personnel in the Niu Family are still monitoring.”

”Take us inside to see.”

After Ye Hao spoke, he cast a stern glance at the Niu Family members, filled with regret, while his face was covered with frosty hostility.

What is going on here?

The members of the Niu Family looked on, bewildered at the unfolding situation. They wanted to find Niu Fang and Gu Shun for answers, but the two had already been escorted outside by the Inspection Group.

Could it be that something has been discovered?

Patriarch Niu and the Eldest Elder exchanged a glance, only to find the same panic and disbelief mirrored in each other’s eyes.

”Hey, Yige, guide us.”

Ye Haochuan was unaware of the Niu Family’s thoughts; after hearing Ye Hao’s words, he decisively called Yige, as he was completely unfamiliar with the Niu Family’s layout.

”Hmm, follow the indications of the plants.”

Yige responded, and then the plants in front of Ye Haochuan bowed, creating a winding path leading deeper into the Niu Family.

”Hmm? This... this...”

Seeing the transformation in the plants, Yang Sen and Ye Hao couldn’t help but exchange glances before looking at Ye Haochuan again, surprise filling their hearts.

This kind of unique talent is rare even within the entire Xuanmen, yet Ye Haochuan had one right by his side.

”Let’s go!”

Ye Haochuan led the Long Alliance people at the front, while the Niu Family members were kept in check by the Inspection Group members, trailing behind Ye Haochuan. Following them were Yang Sen and Ye Hao, whispering at the back.

”Family Head, by the direction they’re heading, it looks like they’re going to the secret chamber. Could it be...”

”Family Head, what should we do?”

”Family Head, have we been exposed?”

”Family Head, think of a way, what should we do?”

”Family Head...”

At this moment, the Niu Family members walking in the middle of the group understood that the Niu Family’s deeds had been uncovered. Anxiously, they looked to their Family Head, hoping he could come up with a plan to lead them out of this predicament.

”Eldest Elder, you have always been the smartest, and our family affairs rely heavily on your strategies. What should we do now?”

Patriarch Niu looked at the murmuring crowd, then secretly glanced at Yang Sen and Ye Hao at the back of the group. Seeing they were talking and not paying attention to them, he quietly approached the Eldest Elder.

”Family Head, escaping now is impossible. Our only hope is Ye Haochuan walking ahead.”

The Eldest Elder’s eyes gleamed with wisdom as he discreetly looked at Ye Haochuan’s back, his eyes filled with a manic determination.

”Hmm? Please, Eldest Elder, explain clearly.”

Patriarch Niu peeked again at Ye Hao and Yang Sen, noticing they still weren’t paying attention, which secretly gave him a sense of hope.

”That Ye Haochuan saved Yang Sen twice, and Ye Hao once. With Yang Sen and Ye Hao’s temperaments, they would never let Ye Haochuan die before them. So, if we capture Ye Haochuan, we might have a slim chance. If we can’t capture him, then perhaps...”

The Eldest Elder didn’t finish, but the Family Head understood that once Ye Haochuan found Lord Rui’er, the Niu Family would face inevitable doom.

Furthermore, the Patriarch was acutely aware that aside from Lord Rui’er, there were also instruments in the secret chamber used to send information to the Evil Sect.

If these were discovered by Yang Sen and Ye Hao, they would be utterly wiped out without a ripple.
