Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 1607: Chapter 1604: Forming a Benevolent Bond

The corners of Blood Princess’s mouth slightly lifted, revealing a disdainful smile, as cold as frost, tinged with arrogance: ”If you insist on being obstinate, then I don’t mind teaching you a lesson personally, so you understand what boundaries are.”

Her gaze was aloof like an unreachable flower, as if nothing in the world was worthy of her notice.

Even though Blood Scale was a renowned and peak-level Immortal Monarch, in her eyes, he was no more than an ant.

She had absolute confidence that she could suppress Blood Scale with just one hand, as easily as taming an unruly beast.

The reason she hadn’t intervened in the battle between Xu Wendong and Blood Scale earlier was to take the opportunity to glimpse Xu Wendong’s true strength.

In her heart, Xu Wendong was like an enigmatic puzzle, and this battle was the key to unraveling it.

Now, although the battle had not yet reached a conclusion, the strength Xu Wendong displayed was like brilliant starlight, deeply etched into her eyes, earning her deep-seated recognition and respect.

In her view, there was no need for the battle to continue; fighting any longer would only increase casualties pointlessly.

Blood Scale felt the powerful aura emanating from Blood Princess, an oppressive presence so tangible it made his heart quiver violently.

It was a bone-chilling sensation of danger, like a cold venomous snake slithering up his spine, making every nerve of his tense up instantly.

His heart was full of irritation, and he glared fiercely at Xu Wendong, snapping, ”Xu, this battle between us is far from over. I shall remember today’s enmity.”

”This fight is only the beginning; we are destined to clash again. Next time, I will surely determine who’s the victor!”

As his words fell, his figure moved, soaring into the sky, transforming into a streak of blood-red light, disappearing instantly from everyone’s sight.

”You should all leave as well!” Blood Princess slightly turned her head, her gaze sweeping over the onlookers.

Her voice was as calm as water, yet carried an undeniable authority, like a queen giving orders, leaving no room for resistance from anyone.

As the crowd gradually dispersed, silence and wreckage were all that remained on the scene.

Blood Princess looked around at the ruins left by the battle, a hint of complexity flashing in her eyes, and couldn’t help but say, ”This place is ruined beyond recognition. Come with me, and I’ll find you another place to stay.”

”Alright.”

Xu Wendong replied, his voice slightly weak, unable to conceal his exhaustion.

The intense battle with Blood Scale had nearly drained all his energy. At this moment, he felt as if his body had been drained dry, weak and powerless, every step like dragging a heavy weight.

He urgently needed a quiet place to calm down and cultivate, to recover his depleted primordial energy.

Subsequently, Blood Princess led Xu Wendong forward.

Soon, a dreamlike Purple Bamboo Forest appeared before their eyes. This bamboo forest was like a corner of an Immortal Realm, the slender purple bamboos standing tall, their stems a faint purple, as if dyed by the evening glow from the sky.

The bamboo leaves swayed gently in the breeze, whispering softly, like a gentle chant.

Sunlight filtered through the bamboo leaves, sprinkling the ground with starry spots of light, like scattered fragments of purple crystal.

The bamboo forest was permeated with a serene aura, mingled with the unique fragrance of bamboo, calming the soul.

Amidst the bamboo forest, a few bamboo houses were scattered, harmonizing perfectly with the forest, as if naturally growing from the earth.

The walls of the bamboo houses were woven with evenly thick bamboo, radiating a faint sheen, exuding a rustic charm.

The roofs were covered with layers of bamboo leaves, like a green cloak draping the bamboo houses.

Some houses were surrounded by small bamboo fences, with vines of unknown origin climbing them, dotted with tiny flowers, adding lively colors to this tranquil place.

Deep in the bamboo forest, a slightly larger bamboo house loomed faintly, which was Blood Princess’s residence.

”If you need anything, just call for me anytime.” Leaving these words, Blood Princess walked lightly into her bamboo house.

Xu Wendong entered one of the bamboo houses, sat cross-legged, and began his cultivation.

Within the Holy Land, the atmosphere was heavy yet enthusiastic, as many powerful individuals engaged in intense discussions regarding Xu Wendong.

An elderly man with white hair and beard, with deep and wise eyes, spoke slowly: ”In my humble opinion, Xu Wendong’s strength is far from simple on the surface.”

”For some reason, I have a strong premonition that if he continues to fight Blood Scale, it’s uncertain who would emerge as the victor, and Blood Scale is very likely to be defeated by him.”

As soon as the elder finished speaking, another elder-level strong man nodded slightly, his expression grave, offering his view: ”Indeed so. The horror of the Ancient Sacred Body lies not merely in its invincible physical form. Its physique, unrivaled in an era, is already astonishing.”

”However, what is even more daunting is the fortune accompanying those with the Ancient Sacred Body!”

This elder paused, a sharp glint flashing in his eye, then continued: ”If my guess is correct, Xu Wendong must be hiding some extremely powerful means, and these methods definitely do not include that Taoist Scripture Fragment.”

Momentarily, the crowd engaged in a flurry of discussions, their various viewpoints intertwining.

But without exception, all gave Xu Wendong extremely high evaluations.

At this moment, a female elder’s crisp voice rang out: ”Clan Leader, I have a proposal.”

All eyes focused on her as she, with a composed expression, calmly stated: ”We have witnessed the power of the Ancient Sacred Body firsthand. Once such a physique matures, it is bound to dominate an era.”

”Now that he has appeared in our Blood Clan, this might be a rare opportunity.”

”We might as well establish a good relationship with him.”

Xue Tu, upon hearing this, slightly frowned, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes: ”What exactly do you mean by a good relationship?”

The female elder surveyed the surroundings, seeing everyone listening, she slowly revealed her thoughts: ”We can let him enter the Blood Pool to temper his physical body.”

”Xu Wendong’s physical body is already as formidable as if forged by gods; entering the Blood Pool for tempering would surely elevate his strength to a new level.”

”For him, should he grow to become a giant in the future, he will surely remember the kindness of our Blood Clan today, which may be a strong assurance for us.”

No sooner had she finished than an elder immediately stood against her proposal with firm resolve: ”Absolutely not. The Blood Pool is the Holy Land of our Blood Clan, the foundation of our clan, holding our inheritance and secrets.”

”It has only ever been accessible to our clan’s disciples.”

”Though Xu Wendong possesses extraordinary talent, he is ultimately an outsider. What right does an outsider have to enter our clan’s Holy Land for cultivation?”

”Wouldn’t that disrupt the rules of our Blood Clan?”
