Medical and Martial God

After jumping into the sea, Kristina and Ming Yue dove deep, surfacing only when they could no longer hold their breath.

”Ye Xiu doesn’t seem to have come down from the cruise ship,” Ming Yue deduced accurately. She gazed at the departing luxury cruise ship and aircraft carrier, then scanned the surrounding water, noting the absence of any floating bodies.

Kristina had obviously seen it too and was so angry she almost spat blood. ”It seems Ye Xiu didn’t realize we were on the aircraft carrier! This is infuriating. If we had known, we wouldn’t have jumped into the sea.”

The mere thought of swimming back to Biluo Island made Kristina feel like spitting blood again.

Ming Yue tried to comfort her. ”We’re less than twenty kilometers from Biluo Island. We’ll be able to swim back quickly.”

”Right!” Kristina nodded. ”After we get back to Biluo Island, we’ll immediately head to the Golden Family.”

Ming Yue was stunned. ”You don’t plan to stay on Biluo Island and fight the enemies?”

”Fight my ass! My forces are all wounded, and even if they weren’t, they’re no match for Ye Xiu. Staying on Biluo Island means certain death,” Kristina cursed.

Hearing this, Ming Yue grew anxious. She didn’t want to keep running around with Kristina anymore—it was utterly exhausting.

She tried to persuade her, ”Didn’t you say Biluo Island was very important? If we leave, it will fall into the hands of Ye Xiu and his people.”

Kristina suddenly let out a sly laugh and asked, ”Ming Yue, do you know why I ordered all the lower-class people on Biluo Island to relocate to Seven-Star Island a while ago?”

”Wasn’t it because you were worried about them getting killed by Qin Qing and Leng Yue?” Ming Yue asked. She had indeed found the order puzzling at the time.

”As if I would care about the lives and deaths of mere lower-class people,” Kristina said with disdain. ”I had all the lower-class people on Biluo Island relocate so they would take all the food with them. Once Ye Xiu and his people get to Biluo Island, they’ll find there’s nothing to eat. Soon enough, they’ll be starving and forced to leave.”

Ming Yue was secretly shocked, not expecting Kristina to possess such foresight.

「The luxury cruise ship arrived at Biluo Island!」

Ye Xiu said to Oleg and his men, ”Biluo Island is very dangerous. I advise you to leave quickly.”

He then disembarked with An Dongye. However, as soon as they were on the docks, they saw Qiuchanyi and Oleg’s group trotting eagerly behind them.

”Why are you following me?” Ye Xiu asked with a frown.

Qiuchanyi hung her head in silence.

Oleg chuckled. ”You’re so powerful. We’d definitely be safe following you.”

”Scram!” Ye Xiu snapped. ”If anyone else dares to follow me, they won’t have to wait for the Judicator Families to act—I’ll kill them myself first.”

With that, he walked off with An Dongye.

This time, no one dared to follow. Qiuchanyi hesitated but ultimately lacked the courage. After all, when Ye Xiu left with An Dongye, he hadn’t invited her to come along. His warning to Oleg and the others was clearly meant for her as well. It seems Ye Xiu never regarded me as a friend from start to finish! she thought, a sudden, powerful sense of grievance washing over her.

Meanwhile, after Ye Xiu and An Dongye had walked some distance away, An Dongye couldn’t help but ask, ”Little Brother, why didn’t you bring Qiuchanyi along?”

Ye Xiu was taken aback. ”She didn’t follow?”

”No!” An Dongye shook her head.

It seems she wants to seek revenge for her family on her own, Ye Xiu sighed inwardly.

Thus, a misunderstanding arose between them. Ye Xiu believed Qiuchanyi didn’t want to rely on his power for vengeance, while Qiuchanyi thought Ye Xiu didn’t consider her a friend and didn’t want her to follow.

At that moment, Mo Luo appeared before Ye Xiu and An Dongye like a phantom. ”Young Master...”

Ye Xiu nodded, glanced around, and asked, ”Why didn’t Qin Qing come to pick me up?”

”Er...” Mo Luo hemmed and hawed, finally saying, ”The Young Madam was too embarrassed to come and meet you.”

Ye Xiu instinctively sensed something was wrong. ”What happened?”

”I have a piece of good news and a piece of bad news. Which do you want to hear first?” Mo Luo inquired.

”Let’s hear the bad news first,” Ye Xiu said.

”The Ye Family and the Long Family have run away,” Mo Luo explained. ”A few days ago, Kristina ordered everyone on Biluo Island to relocate to Seven-Star Island and take all the food supplies with them. When the Young Madam found out, she personally led people to seize the food. The Ye and Long Families took the opportunity to escape during the chaos.”

Ye Xiu understood. Qin Qing had lost track of the Ye and Long families, so she was too ashamed to face him.

He chuckled. ”How is that bad news? Given the nature of the Ye and Long families, they must still be hiding somewhere on Biluo Island. With no food left, they’ll come back on their own once they’re starving.”

”And the good news?” An Dongye asked eagerly.

Seeing that Ye Xiu wasn’t angry about the Ye and Long families escaping, Mo Luo relaxed and said, ”Kristina previously sent someone to the Golden Family to retrieve Life Totems. On his way back, my men intercepted him. They’re now on their way here with the Life Totems.”

Oh? That is certainly good news! Ye Xiu’s eyes lit up. ”How many Life Totems did you seize?”

”Thirty thousand!” said Mo Luo.

The three Judicator Families must have mastered the technology to mass-produce Totems; otherwise, they couldn’t possibly have produced so many at once, Ye Xiu thought, inwardly astonished.

He instructed, ”Tell them to hurry back. I have a use for those Life Totems. Also, you stay here to receive the others. An Dongye and I will head to Abandoned City on our own.”

”Right away!” Mo Luo nodded.

In fact, Ye Xiu was mistaken. There were two reasons why the Golden Family had provided 30,000 Life Totems at once.

First, the three Judicator Families had not mastered the method of awakening the Life Totems, so they never valued them much. Consequently, no one would shed a tear even if Kristina were to squander all 30,000 of them.

Second, the Golden Family wanted Kristina to create 30,000 ’medics’. In the future, when the three Judicator Families and the Eternal Kingdom attack nations across the globe, these medics could be distributed among their various units to heal the wounded.

If the three Judicator Families knew that 30,000 Life Totems had fallen into Ye Xiu’s hands, they would spit blood from fury.

「Ye Xiu and An Dongye arrived at Abandoned City.」

Qin Qing, Leng Yue, and Dizang had already received a call from Mo Luo and knew that Ye Xiu wasn’t angry about the escape of the Ye and Long families. They, along with Chloe, Ye Liuyun, Tang Bo, and Dong Fangbai, who had arrived earlier, were already waiting at the tunnel entrance.

Upon meeting them, Ye Xiu said directly, ”Take me to Sword Burial Peak.”

”What are you going to do at Sword Burial Peak?” Qin Qing asked.

”I want to see the ’sword’ character on Sword Burial Peak with my own eyes,” Ye Xiu replied.

Realization dawned on Qin Qing and Leng Yue. Leng Yue said, ”Then you don’t need to go, Young Master. The Young Madam chiseled the ’sword’ character off the mountain. It’s at our residence now.”

Ye Xiu was speechless. Qin Qing’s thought process is as uniquely bizarre as ever!

Just then, Ye Xiu’s gaze fell upon the weapon in Leng Yue’s hand, and he exclaimed, ”Is that the Tiancong Cloud Sword?”

”You have a good eye, Young Master.” Leng Yue respectfully handed the Tiancong Cloud Sword to Ye Xiu, saying, ”I obtained it after killing Hachi.”

After examining the Tiancong Cloud Sword for a moment, Ye Xiu handed it back to Leng Yue. ”Legend has it that this sword has the power to vanquish demons and exorcise evil. You should study how to master its power. You obtained it, so it rightfully belongs to you.”

”Thank you, Young Master!” Leng Yue was overjoyed.

She knew Ye Xiu was fond of collecting Divine Weapons and had thought he would simply take the Tiancong Cloud Sword for himself.
