Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 2116: Chapter 2116: I Was Actually Fooled by This Girl!

Dennis very much wanted to continue posturing, saying that the Pill might not be as effective as it seemed.

However, the words stuck in his throat, unable to be spoken. Because no matter how you phrase it, it sounded utterly foolish.

At this moment, he fully understood that he had lost, not only his status in the Sky Hunting Association but also Pan Muxiang, losing utterly.

The Director didn’t show any intention of blaming him, but the Director’s gaze no longer held the absolute trust it once did, which drove him mad with frustration but left him helpless.

All he wanted now was to hide in the furthest corner, the less seen by others, the more at ease he felt.

Indeed, no one noticed him, as all eyes were fixed on the Pill inside the Pill Furnace.

Judging by its appearance and the aura contained within the Pill, no one could doubt its value.

”Quite a bit of knowledge you have there, haha!” After a long while, the Director regained his composure and laughed heartily, ”Ye Haochuan, this time the credit’s yours. Tell me, what reward do you want?”

”Regarding rewards, the more the merrier, of course,” Ye Haochuan responded without hesitation, ”But there is indeed something I’d like the Director to agree to.”

”What is it, tell me!”

”I have some other matters to attend to, and might need to leave here for a while. Also, my Kirin friends have helped, please allow the Director let them go!” Ye Haochuan spoke confidently.

In an instant, the atmosphere around them turned a bit awkward.

Everyone’s expression seemed to be saying no.

With Ye Haochuan and the two Kirin here, they virtually had a steady supply of Twin Dragons Binding Gold Pills, how could they let them leave so easily?

The Director’s expression was the same.

But at this time, Xu Linglan whispered a few words in the Director’s ear.

After hearing Xu Linglan’s words, the coldness on the Director’s face dissipated instantly, and he said with a smile, ”You were merely our Guest Elder after all, the Sky Hunting Association cannot restrict your freedom. As for your two Kirin friends, they have been a great help to us. I am grateful, how dare I obstruct them?”

”Director...”

Others still wanted to persuade him further, but the Director resolutely said, ”No more talking, the matter is settled!”

No one dared defy the Director’s decision, all closed their mouths resignedly.

”Thank you for granting this, Director. No delays, I’m leaving now!” Ye Haochuan said decisively.

”Leaving now?” Clearly everyone was surprised at Ye Haochuan’s urgency.

However, since the Director had spoken, naturally, no one dared to stop him. The Director made a symbolic gesture to keep him but then let Ye Haochuan depart.

As for the so-called reward, it ultimately went unresolved. Only at Ye Haochuan’s insistence, was he allowed to keep one Twin Dragons Binding Gold Pill.

The reason for Ye Haochuan’s haste was naturally due to fear that the Director might change his mind.

He would be fine, at worst just limited in freedom.

If Yinfeng and the Ice Jade Kirin were kept here, they’d be like caged bears, having to supply Essential Blood periodically would be more excruciating than killing them.

Riding the wind, Ye Haochuan and the Ice Jade Kirin’s figures quickly moved out of the valley.

As soon as they stepped out of the valley, a graceful figure appeared before them.

”In such a hurry to leave, is there a mistress waiting for you outside?” A coquettish laughter carried through, charmingly seductive.

Ye Haochuan looked at the extremely alluring Xu Linglan, raised an eyebrow and smiled, ”As enchanting as any mistress may be, how could she compare to the charm of a lady?”

”Hehe~” Xu Linglan giggled, ”Little one, you’re quite good at charming women, you must surely have many admirers, huh? No wonder even Mu Xiang is absolutely enthralled by you!”

Upon hearing Pan Muxiang’s name, Ye Haochuan shivered, looking embarrassed, and said: ”Please don’t tease me, how could I ever deserve someone as exceptional as Miss Mu Xiang?”

”You’re quite curious, most go to great lengths to win that girl’s smile. Yet you shy away like she’s the plague, constantly ducking out,” Xu Linglan said, glancing with eyes full of amusement.

”Many currying favor? Am I not seeing her true self?” Ye Haochuan wondered.

But quickly dismissed that thought.

When he unveiled the cloak, Pan Muxiang didn’t know he was going to reveal it, there was no way she could have prepared a disguise in advance, right?

”Anyway, this rule of having to marry upon seeing someone’s face is quite reckless, isn’t it? What if some awfully ugly Lazyman saw her face, would you have them marry too?” Ye Haochuan lamented.

”Just marry after seeing? What does that mean?” This time Xu Linglan was the one caught off guard.

”You don’t know?” Ye Haochuan briefly recounted the incident between him and Pan Muxiang.

”Haha, that girl’s quirky temperament, truly makes one both laugh and cry!” Xu Linglan, after hearing this, laughed to her heart’s content, teetering back and forth.

”You mean, there’s no such rule? It was all her made-up fibbing?”

Xu Linglan nodded earnestly.

Damn, to think he was duped by that girl!

Ye Haochuan fumed indignantly.

He had been on edge during the previous meeting, worried the Director might bring it up and have him marry Pan Muxiang on the spot.

Reflecting now, he had been nothing but thoroughly foolish.

”Alright, let’s get down to business!” Xu Linglan suddenly adjusted her demeanor, ”Do you realize why I let you leave so easily?”

”This, about the business I am indeed uncertain about.”

”Letting you go, because I’ve discovered you are not ordinary!” Xu Linglan replied seriously.

”Oh?” Ye Haochuan’s interest was piqued, ”So you figured out my extraordinary roots even before I bared myself?”

”Nonsense!” Xu Linglan gave an irate flash of her eyes, ”I’m speaking seriously, where exactly did you come from?”

”Naturally from where I originated!” Ye Haochuan laughed it off.

Having not known Xu Linglan for long, not having discussed in depth, he certainly wouldn’t reveal all his secrets.

Xu Linglan wasn’t vexed, merely laughed, ”Even if you don’t say, I know you’re not of this world. I’m just utterly curious, are you from the legendary Immortal Realm?”

”Legend? You mean you don’t know of the Immortal Realm’s existence?” Now it’s Ye Haochuan’s turn to be curious.

”Seems my guess was spot on!”

Xu Linglan smiled smugly, saying: ”The term Immortal Realm appears only in the most ancient texts, recorded in ancient script. I’ve always been curious whether it truly exists, now it seems the records are true!”

After that, she gazed at Ye Haochuan with longing, ”Can you describe what the Immortal Realm is like?”

Since she had already guessed it, Ye Haochuan saw no need to hide anything, sharing some common knowledge about the Immortal Realm.

”I never imagined that the Immortal Realm is ruled by Asians...” Xu Linglan after hearing about it, couldn’t help but marvel.

”Of course, if I haven’t guessed wrong, this might be the only world ruled by Caucasians, right?” Ye Haochuan replied proudly.

”Can you take me to the Immortal Realm to have a look?” Xu Linglan asked, eyes filled with hope.

”To be honest, I’m still searching for a way to return to the Immortal Realm myself!” Ye Haochuan said somewhat embarrassed.
