The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 2896: Chapter 2870: Refused? (1st update)

Ye Chen had no intention of moving.

Yet, upon seeing this scene, Ouyang Xi’s eyes flashed with blood-red light, revealing a trace of disappointment.

Ouyang Xi was well aware of the power of his own sword strike. Although it was merely a friendly exchange and he had held back somewhat, this sword was not one that could be blocked by remaining motionless. In Ouyang Xi’s view, if Ye Chen’s understanding of martial arts wasn’t weaker than his own, he would have tried to dodge, temporarily avoiding the first edge of the Blood Dragon Mad Dance Sword, and then attack the weak point of the sword light.

But now, Ye Chen’s response was to remain perfectly still.

This was the worst decision to face the Blood Dragon Mad Dance Sword. Whether Ye Chen was being overconfident or his martial understanding was simply too lacking, for Ouyang Xi, it was all disappointing!

He even wondered if he had misjudged, wondering if Ye Chen was actually nothing impressive?

However, although Ouyang Xi wasn’t necessarily a good person, he had his own principles. Once he stated he wouldn’t act against Ye Chen, he wouldn’t, even if Ye Chen couldn’t withstand a single blow from him, Ouyang Xi had no intention of going back on his word.

Just when the blood-red angry dragon was about to completely devour Ye Chen, Ye Chen moved!

A pitch-black long sword appeared in Ye Chen’s hand, seemingly slow yet quick as it slashed toward the blood dragon before him! He hadn’t even used his Heavenly Demon Body or Reincarnation Bloodline!

The long sword emitted a faint essence of destruction!

That was the power of the Destruction Divine Dao! However, Ye Chen had only used a sliver of it.

This sliver was more than enough!

The next moment, an incredibly shocking scene unfolded!

There was no imagined violent impact, residual force scattering, or earth-shattering noise.

The ultimate sword strike Ouyang Xi had unleashed, transformed into the blood dragon, silently and unnoticeably collapsed!

It transformed into a faint blood mist, dissipating in the air!

Just a moment ago, Ouyang Xi’s eyes were filled with disappointment, but now, he was utterly stunned!

He looked at Ye Chen in disbelief!

What did Ye Chen just do?

The sword strike couldn’t even be comprehended with his level of martial arts!

The shock made his very soul tremble!𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

His eyes flashed with intense blood-red light, and his face was incredibly embarrassed. Just now, he had thought Ye Chen’s martial arts understanding was inadequate, thinking he had overestimated Ye Chen?

But the next second, he was completely humiliated!

Not enough martial arts understanding?

It was clear, Ye Chen seemed injured, didn’t exert his full strength, but the reason he could so easily suppress the Blood Dragon Mad Dance Sword was that his martial arts understanding was far superior to Ouyang Xi!

He truly misjudged, but it was by greatly underestimating Ye Chen!

To be honest, Ouyang Xi could see clearly now, let alone comparing with himself, in terms of martial arts understanding alone, he wasn’t even qualified to carry Ye Chen’s shoes...

Convinced, completely convinced!

The incredibly proud genius martial artist Ouyang Xi, for the first time in his life, was in such awe of someone!

If Ouyang Xi was a peerless genius, then Ye Chen was a monstrous talent that could change the history of the entire plane!

Laughing heartily at Ye Chen, he said: "What a terrifying sword strike! Mr. Ye, you truly opened my eyes today! I’m wholeheartedly convinced of my defeat!"

Meanwhile, he secretly thanked his luck that he hadn’t acted against Ye Chen!

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said: "You’re not bad yourself."

Indeed, without Ye Chen’s understanding of the Destruction Divine Dao, facing Ouyang Xi’s sword might have been quite troublesome.

Ouyang Xi waved his hand, and the caged sub-spiritual beast moved towards Ye Chen!

Ye Chen’s breathing became rapid; rarely did something excite him so much. When he refined this sub-spiritual beast, he might even encounter the blood dragon!

He also wondered how the blood dragon was doing in the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Palace.

Ouyang Xi noticed this detail, puzzled why Ye Chen valued the sub-spiritual beast so much, as it was nothing special. Was Ye Chen practicing creating an avatar?

He didn’t dwell on it further and tossed a jade token to Ye Chen, saying: "This is my token, also a communication jade. If Mr. Ye ever encounters any issues in the First Divine Country, feel free to contact me."

Ouyang Xi’s identity was quite complicated; he knew befriending an extraordinary talent like Ye Chen would do no harm!

Having said this, he saluted Ye Chen once more: "Mr. Ye, originally I wanted to invite you to visit Blood Essence Sect, but as I have matters to attend to, we must arrange it another day."

Ye Chen nodded slightly and said: "Until we meet again."

Just as Ouyang Xi was about to disappear, he turned back, solemnly saying to Ye Chen: "Mr. Ye, a word of caution, beware of Mo Xue Ming. Recently, in the First Divine Country, it’s been said that apart from the devils, Mo Xue Ming, who has long shrouded the kingdom in shadow, seems to be making moves."

After saying this, Ouyang Xi’s figure flickered and vanished into the void.

Ye Chen watched Ouyang Xi’s retreating figure, lost in thought.

Could it be that Mo Xue Ming had already reached the First Divine Country?

But thinking about it made sense; Mo Xue Ming had existed for so long, even in Elder Cang’s time he was a feared name, much less now.

...

The next moment, Ye Chen returned to the front of Zhou Rou and Lin Siqi.

Zhou Rou asked curiously: "Ye Chen, did you discover anything?"

Ye Chen replied indifferently: "No, it was just a mistaken feeling."

He didn’t mention the incident with Ouyang Xi; it wasn’t necessary, and explaining it would only be a waste of words.

He generally disliked trouble.

Lin Siqi snorted coldly, saying: "Wasting our time just to show off? Heh, if we encounter beasts because of you, I’ll make you pay the price!"

Ignoring Lin Siqi’s words, Ye Chen said to Zhou Rou: "Let’s continue."

In fact, before leaving, he had thoroughly scouted the area, ensuring no powerful beasts were nearby for now.

Though Lin Siqi was displeased, under Zhou Rou’s persuasion, she said no more, and the three continued toward the Taiyuan Sword Sect.

As they walked, Zhou Rou asked Ye Chen: "Ye Chen, are you interested in joining our Taiyuan Sword Sect? Although we’re a hidden sect, not very renowned, I can assure you, we’re not much inferior to the Wanfa Sect or any first-class forces!"

Speaking of the sect, a hint of pride surfaced on Zhou Rou’s face.

However, Ye Chen shook his head without hesitation and said: "I already belong to a sect."

"Is that so?"

Zhou Rou lowered her head in some regret after hearing this, not knowing why, she truly hoped Ye Chen would join the Taiyuan Sword Sect.

Lin Siqi, on the other hand, was delighted. In her view, what significant sect could this "waste" come from?

She guessed he probably hadn’t heard of the Taiyuan Sword Sect’s reputation and ignorantly rejected it?
