Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 1510: Chapter 1507: You Should Give Me Some Respect, Right?

”Quick, let’s head to Sinan Street!” As soon as the voice from the Communication Jade Card finished, Lu Shuling grabbed Xu Wendong’s wrist without hesitation.

In an instant, a Flying Sword appeared under their feet, carrying them into the sky like a brilliant meteor streaking across the night sky.

Mere moments later, the two arrived at Sinan Street.

They saw a dozen City Guards fiercely battling a middle-aged man.

This man had the cultivation level of a True Immortal, with crimson eyes and his body surrounded by dense Demonic Qi, exuding an extremely ferocious aura.

”How could it be him?”

At the sight of the middle-aged man, Lu Shuling’s pupils dilated suddenly, and a strong sense of unease surged in her heart.

This man’s name was Wu Cong, who had previously assisted her in besieging Yun Yang.

In the end, with everyone working together, they managed to kill the demonized Yun Yang.

However, all who participated in the siege were injured.

Now, with Wu Cong demonized, her heart was filled with terror.

Without dwelling on it, Lu Shuling shouted, ”You are no match for Wu Cong! Quickly back off!” As her words fell, she willed her Longsword to appear above her head, and under her control, it fiercely slashed at Wu Cong.

However, Wu Cong was also a formidable True Immortal Realm expert, now even more powerful after being demonized.

He calmly swung his Longsword, effortlessly neutralizing Lu Shuling’s attack, and slowly approached everyone with a cold gaze.

The dozen City Guards all wore grave expressions, their cultivation level only at the Heavenly Immortal Realm, rendering them powerless against a strong foe like Wu Cong.

”Shuling, I’ll cover you.” Chen Nan spoke, decisively releasing the Slayer Vine.

Blood-red vines appeared like phantoms around Wu Cong, quickly entwining his legs and rapidly creeping upward.

”Such a trifling skill, and you wish to trap me?” Wu Cong spoke coldly, slashing his Longsword towards the vines at his feet.

But just before his Longsword could fall.

Lu Shuling’s Longsword had already pierced through his chest, splattering black blood and eliciting a heart-wrenching scream from Wu Cong.

At that moment, his eyes returned to normal, and he regained his senses, though blood continued to pour from his mouth.

”What happened to me?” Wu Cong’s face was as pale as paper, his gaze filled with confusion, not recalling what had happened earlier.

”Brother Wu, you were demonized,” Lu Shuling said grimly.

This simple statement hit Wu Cong like a bolt from the blue, making his pupils tremble violently.

He seemed unable to comprehend his own demonization, as he had never cultivated Devil Skills, and logically, this should not have happened.

”Was it because I was wounded by Yun Yang?” A bitter smile appeared in Wu Cong’s eyes as he instantly understood his predicament.

Once demonized, his fate would be complete demonization, or he would have to end his own life before being fully demonized; otherwise, he would become a threat to the residents of the Underground City.

Buzz!

Without any warning, a golden Big Bell flew into the night sky, emanating a sacred light and resonant bell tolls.

The Big Bell emitted visible golden sound waves that instantly spread throughout this small world.

Upon hearing the bell, Xu Wendong suddenly felt his heart and mind become tranquil, as if his spirit had been purified, feeling a profound sense of wonder.

”It’s the Tianxuan Bell!” Upon seeing the golden Big Bell, many displayed expressions of excitement.

This was an extremely rare treasure within the Underground City, possessing a divine skill for purifying evil.

”This isn’t the death I wanted!” Wu Cong laughed bitterly, his eyes revealing unconcealable helplessness and resentment.

The Tianxuan Bell’s chimes were unbearable for him, feeling as if a mysterious power was invading the depths of his mind.

The next moment, his physical body exploded into a blood mist.

Simultaneously, the previously injured City Guards who had fought Wu Cong displayed expressions of pain, feeling a terrifying energy surging within them, challenging their endurance.

They, too, realized that they had been contaminated by Demonic Qi.

It wouldn’t be long before they too would become demonized.

Fear and despair rose in their hearts, yet they knew that contamination with Demonic Qi inevitably led to demonization.

Of course, it wasn’t just these people who were contaminated; within the city, some cultivators were also tainted by Demonic Qi, even if this Qi hadn’t yet disrupted their daily lives.

Yet everyone understood that their demonization was just a matter of time.

Buzz, buzz, buzz! The Tianxuan Bell’s sound grew more urgent and resonant.

Ultimately, all those cultivators contaminated with Demonic Qi perished, casting a shadow over the city’s atmosphere, filled with oppression and fear.

The Otherworldly Demons had yet to reach here, but already they had caused hundreds of casualties among the Human Race cultivators, instilling fear with their methods.

For no one knew what would happen next.

——

”I never expected this many cultivators in the city to be contaminated by Demonic Qi.”

”Thankfully, we have the Tianxuan Bell.”

”Otherwise, if all these people became fully demonized, the consequences would be unimaginable.”

On the way home, Lu Shuling wore a look of lingering fear.

Xu Wendong nodded, still shaken.

Those cultivators tainted with Demonic Qi were like carriers of a highly contagious disease; if the source spread, it wouldn’t be long before it affected the entire Underground City.

After all, this was a confined space!

If that happened, everyone would be demonized.

Xu Wendong looked up at the golden Tianxuan Bell in the sky and couldn’t help but say, ”With the Tianxuan Bell, no cultivators in the Underground City should become demonized.”

”But following this, an even greater crisis will erupt.”

Lu Shuling’s eyes showed a grave expression, understanding that the food reserves in the Underground City were limited and couldn’t sustain for long.

Soon, the city’s order would collapse.

In fact, there was a high possibility they would resort to cannibalism.

Xu Wendong patted Lu Shuling’s shoulder and softly said, ”In chaotic times, let’s not dream of saving all living beings; let’s focus on ourselves! Surviving is more important than anything.”

Even though he wanted to save the people of the Underground City, he felt powerless.

Lu Shuling nodded, and with Xu Wendong, they returned to their abode.

Upon returning home, Xu Wendong found an old acquaintance sitting in the courtyard.

Behind him were a group of powerful cultivators.

He was watching Xu Wendong with a playful gaze.

This person was none other than Wang Tong, who had previously tried to rob Xu Wendong.

However, upon learning that Xu Wendong would be apprenticed to Han Hexiang, Wang Tong hastily apologized and even offered a substantial amount of Immortal Stones as compensation.

Calmly, Xu Wendong asked, ”Brother Wang Tong, what brings you here?”

Wang Tong stood up with a smile, his expression intriguing: ”I heard that Senior Han gave Junior Brother Xu a lot of survival resources. I came to borrow some food from you; would you do me this favor?”
