The Unparalleled Spiritual Doctor: Demon Emperor's Defiant Love

Chapter 186: Broken Ties

“Eldest Sister, congratulations on your acquittal. I am happy for you.” When Ye Shanshan saw that she was about to land herself in hot water, she stepped forward immediately and tried to hold Ye Jiuge’s hand.

However, Ye Jiuge dodged her, and said emotionlessly, “You were singing a different tune earlier!”

“Eldest Sister, are you still angry at me for that?” Ye Shanshan had a hurt expression. She held back her tears as she said, “I was so concerned about you that rumors misled me. That is my fault. Eldest Sister, if you still hold a grudge against me, then you can beat me up to vent your anger. I will not complain!”

“Jiuge, your younger sister was worried that you’d strayed from the right path.” Ye Yuxuan carried himself with the imposing air of a father as he said, “Although you’ve managed to clear your name this time, if you had not acted so recklessly, you would not have fallen so easily into the Black Magic Practitioner’s trap. You should take this as a lesson and be more careful in the future.”

“Great Master Ye, you are right. I will engrave your advice in my heart.” Ye Jiuge looked directly into Ye Yuxuan’s eyes as she slowly uttered every word.

When Ye Yuxuan heard ‘Great Master Ye,’ he frowned instantly.

Although he hated Ye Jiuge, Ye Jiuge had embarrassed him greatly by speaking against him that day in such a setting.

Therefore, Ye Yuxuan put on a stern face as he spoke, “This time, I have wronged you. I was mistaken. Don’t tell me that you are still holding onto your resentment toward me?”

“Eldest Sister, we are a family. Blood is thicker than water. Father did this for your good. He was concerned that you had strayed onto the wrong path, so he came here in a hurry. Actually, you are always in his thoughts.” Ye Shanshan’s eyes were slightly red, as if she were extremely saddened by Ye Jiuge’s actions.

“There is no need to talk about this further. Great Master Ye is always a man of his word. He always fulfills his promises. Since he has already posted notices far and wide announcing that he has disowned me, there is no need for him to force himself to repair our relationship. From now on, we shall go our separate ways. Whether Ye Jiuge is dead or alive is no longer any of your business.”

Although Ye Jiuge’s indifferent voice was soft, everyone heard her clearly.

The observers were silent. They stared at Ye Yuxuan with sadistic pleasure.

It served him right. He could not distinguish right from wrong. Not only that, but he had distorted the truth deliberately and acted cold and ruthless towards his daughter. He had let her down.

Ye Yuxuan was ashen. He had never been so humiliated in his life.

He wished that he could slap her before dragging this recalcitrant daughter back to the Ye Residence to discipline her properly.

Pity this was only a fantasy.

Ye Jiuge did not care what Ye Yuxuan was thinking about. She turned to Dongfang Yao and said, “Great Master Dongfang, I have some matters regarding Black Magic that I want to discuss with you. Why don’t we head over to the Medicine Refinery Complex?”

“Sure!” Dongfang Yao nodded. With disdain, he eyed Ye Yuxuan, whose face was as black as the bottom of a frying pan, before walking off with Ye Jiuge and the others.

Ouyang Sen, Xia Chenfeng, and Hu Lin quickly followed them.

In the blink of an eye, only the Crown Prince, Su Junqing, Ye Yuxuan, and Ye Shanshan were left at the scene.

“Father, Eldest Sister is being too heartless. How can she cut her ties with us just like that? We are family!” Ye Shanshan was anxious and dejected. In reality, she wanted to take this opportunity to pull the wool over Ye Yuxuan’s eyes.

However, Ye Yuxuan had an angry face. He glared at her and scolded, “You are so incompetent. You never accomplish anything, but you ruin everything.”

After he finished speaking, he flung his sleeves before leaving.

While Ye Shanshan wanted to chase after him, she felt that it was too shameful. She stopped walking and looked at the Crown Prince with hurt.

She’d written a letter egging on her father to sever the connections between the Ye Clan and Ye Jiuge was because the Crown Prince has instructed her to do so.

The Crown Prince’s face was completely red. He did not notice Ye Shanshan’s expression.

His ears were filled with the voice of the public condemning him for being so useless.

He could not understand at all. They had clearly driven Ye Jiuge into a corner, so how could she turn her situation around so easily?

“Crown Prince, let us return now!” Su Junqing said gravely. “At such a time, we must keep our cool.”

“Let’s leave!” The Crown Prince turned around and led his men back to the Medicine Refinery Complex.

Ye Shanshan quickly followed the Crown Prince back to the Ascending Skies Pavilion at the Medicine Refinery Complex.

At first, she wanted to discuss with the Crown Prince what to do next.

She’d never expected the Crown Prince to disregard her completely. He went to the study with Su Junqing, and even asked someone to guard the entrance and forbade her from entering.

Ye Shanshan currently felt ashamed, angry, and resentful.

The Crown Prince was her ideal partner, while Su Junqing was her cousin.

These two were the men whom she held dearest in her heart, so they should be very close to her. However, they’d decided to exclude her. They made her feel like they did not trust her at all.

Unfortunately for her, she did not have the courage to barge into the study and make a huge fuss. She could only leave feeling aggrieved.

The Crown Prince threw a tantrum in the study. He pointed at Su Junqing as he berated him, “Su Junqing, how did you execute your plans? Did you not tell me that Ye Jiuge would be screwed this time? Instead, she’s now become a hero for eradicating the Black Magic Practitioners. My Imperial Uncle sees her in a new light. On the other hand, I have become a laughingstock, the biggest joke in the Lei Kingdom.”

“Crown Prince, please quell your anger. Ye Jiuge has merely cleared her name. This will not affect our overall plan. Our preparations in the Capital are almost complete. The throne will be yours. Why should you waste your thoughts on Ye Jiuge?” Su Junqing advised him calmly.

The Crown Prince’s eyes brightened as he questioned Su Junqing immediately for more information, “Really? Everything in the Capital is almost in order?”

“That’s right. After the dust has settled in Medicine Refinery City, you will become the next emperor of the Lei Kingdom,” Su Junqing replied unhesitatingly.

“Great, great, great! As long as you serve me well, I will not give you less than you deserve.” The Crown Prince patted Su Junqing’s shoulder excitedly, and his face was full of complacency.

“Your Highness, I am extremely thankful that you have recognized my worth. Now, I shall go and do some work.” Su Junqing smiled obsequiously.

“Go ahead!” Feeling pleased, the Crown Prince waved him away.

Su Junqing bowed deferentially before returning to his room.

Immediately, his extremely confident face became uneasy.

He took out a Communication Talisman and sent a message: “Senior, Brother Jiang is dead. When you hear this message, please reply immediately.”

After he burnt the Communication Talisman, he was still worried. While pacing around the room, he thought things over. Then, he used an ointment and transformed his appearance into that of a middle-aged man with a clean and handsome face. After that, he went to the Medicine Refinery Hall with a demeanor suggesting that he was familiar with the area. He told the guard at the entrance that he wanted to meet Zhang Peng.

The guard looked Su Junqing up and down warily then asked, “May I ask who you are?”

“I am his father.” Su Junqing smiled in a relaxed manner.

The guard immediately complied. “So, you are Uncle Zhang. Please wait a moment. I shall ask him to come now.”

Zhang Peng was the third most influential person in the Medicine Refinery Complex. His position was right below Li Zijun’s.

After a short moment, a handsome young man clad in white walked in. When he saw Su Junqing, he spoke welcomingly, “Father, how did you find the time to see me?”

“I was just passing by, so I thought I’d visit you,” Su Junqing replied benevolently.

“Father, come here and have a seat.” Zhang Peng brought Su Junqing to a secluded place before asking him in a low voice, “Right now, the situation is so tense. Why have you come to see me?”

u City surrounded the entrance of the division and didn’t dare enter. They pointed and commented on the things within.

Overnight, Nine Bug Gang’s division was wiped out.

They heard movement inside last night but no one dared to enter. They hid in their homes and shivered as they waited for the situation to end.

“Last night, I heard some movement which lasted for a long time. There were also painful cries. After a long time, after the cries disappeared, I heard the sound of horse hooves.”

What that person said was true. He stayed beside the division and heard everything that happened, not missing out on anything at all.

“Who is so bold to wipe out the division of Nine Bug Gang?”

The commoners discussed.

To them, all these things were too distant. In their hearts, they only knew that Nine Bug Gang was amazing, that the division was strong, that they were people that no one dared to offend.

Now, when they stood at the entrance and looked at the situation within, it had a huge impact on them.

Very quickly, a bunch of men rode their horses and came to the entrance. They chased away the commoners and then one walked in to investigate the situation.

The entire ground was covered in corpses.

“This...”

Even if that man had gone through many things in life, when he saw this, he panicked and didn’t know what to do.

Who was so bold to actually do such a thing?

Did he really want to die?

That night.

Peng!

“Damn, bunch of trash, what is the point of having you all?” A loud explosion sounded as scary internal strength burst out from the body of the Gang Leader. It formed an energy wave that spread out. The expressions of those higher-ups changed. Some couldn’t block it and were blow out, falling into the water.

It was like they thought about what terrifying thing was within.

They jumped onto the ship and back into the cabin. They knelt in front of the Gang Leader, their entire bodies wet.

They cursed out in their hearts.

F***.

Those idiots, even if they wanted to cause problems, they shouldn’t have done this. If they had balls, then they should attack the headquarters; were they attacking the division just to annoy them?

When they felt the rage of the Gang Leader, their hearts felt cold.

Too scary.

“Who is Lin Fan, who is he?”

“Idiot, a true idiot.”

“That kid, he actually wiped out the Yunlu City division. How annoying, search for him. Even if you flip over this world, find them.” The Gang Leader was furious, his angry voice was like a burning flame which caused them to be covered in sweat. Like they could melt at any moment.

The world was so huge.

Where did they have to go to find him?

So many things had happened that he forgot about the lost treasure.

The higher-ups felt chills down their spines. They disappeared from the spot. They knew that if the Gang Leader was furious, none of them would be able to escape.

They were furious.

You people could offend anyone but why offend the Gang Leader, you even dragged us down. How despicable.

Morning.

Zhou Zhongmao rushed the carriage. Behind it was Lin Fan and Feng Poliu.

“Young Master Lin, we are too obvious and can’t stop. We have to rush out of their range.” Feng Poliu had been saying that all the way.

When they passed cities, Lin Fan wanted to find a place to rest, wait till daylight before leaving.

But Feng Poliu said no.

They had to rush in case other people found them.

“Stop saying no. From last night till now, you have said it a couple of hundred times. If you aren’t annoyed by saying it, I am from hearing it.” Lin Fan was helpless and wanted to toss this fellow off from the carriage.

Feng Poliu said, “I just want to remind you, I don’t mean anything else. Moreover, when did I say so many times? I just said it a few times.”

Truthfully, they gained a lot.

Most were gold, silver, and pearls which were hard to evaluate.

Not all were silver, there were many gemstones and rare items. As for how much they were worth, they had to let an expert evaluate.

Lin Fan rubbed his head and rested on the box. He was really leisure and looked at Fuzhou which was so far away now.

He would return.

He had been to Fuzhou and personally experienced Nine Bug Gang’s situation, it really wasn’t something he could deal with now. But he did have the ability to cause some problems for Nine Bug Gang.

Maybe they were furious now and wanted to beat him to death.

Hehe!

Just thinking about it made him excited. Who told them to fight with him. If not for him being weaker why would he play with them? He would have castrated them all.

Feng Poliu glanced and noticed that his smile was of delight, who knew what he was thinking about?

“Feng Poliu, you really killed your Master?” Lin Fan asked.

Damn!

Wasn’t he thinking about something, why did he suddenly talk about him?

“He recognized the wrong person.” Feng Poliu said.

Lin Fan said, “I feel that he didn’t. You are from Insect Valley, otherwise, why would you have Bug Controlling Technique. Did you kill your Master for it? Actually, it is okay for young people to do such things as long as you are regretful and want to change. Although I will despise you, I won’t look down on you.”

Feng Poliu turned around and turned his head to the side, not wanting to talk anymore with Lin Fan.

At that moment, many people headed toward them. They all rode horses and wore the same uniform. It wasn’t the one who Lin Fan recognized but all of them carried a sword.

When they passed Lin Fan, they just looked curiously. They didn’t stop and just left.

“People from Sword Palace.” Feng Poliu looked on and was curious. Why would people from Sword Palace appear here?

After all, Sword Palace was 108,000 miles away from here. The 108,000 wasn’t really that far, it was just an example.

“You know them?” Lin Fan asked.

Feng Poliu said, “No, I just know them. They are a really strong sect. But it is really weird, why are there so many disciples from big sects. Did something happen?”

“Who cares, anyway it has nothing to do with us.” Lin Fan looked at the sky in a daze. His cultivation was already at Master Realm. Although he wasn’t at the peak, he wasn’t weak.

He had to think of ways to get top cultivation techniques.

The most simple way would be to return to You City to find his Father. With his Father’s background, he definitely had a lot.

But he wanted to rely on himself to get what he wanted.

When his strength improved, he would head back to surprise his Father.

“Feng Poliu, do you know where to get top heart cultivation techniques or physique raising techniques?” Lin Fan asked.

“Feng Poliu has them.” Feng Poliu said, “However, you can’t go back, even if you head back you are asking to die. If you want you can head to Rong City. There is a market there but it can’t be compared to Fuzhou. There are top techniques there if you have enough silver.”

“Rong City?” Lin Fan contemplated. He thought about Li Zhixiu and said, “Okay, then let’s head to Rong City first.”

“Can you stop changing your mind, why do you need so many top cultivation techniques? With your current situation, you cultivated a lot right.” Feng Poliu couldn’t understand. It was useless to have so many top techniques. One’s attention was limited and one couldn’t cultivate so much.

“You don’t need to care.” Lin Fan replied and then sighed. Could he tell him that his cultivation techniques weren’t enough?

The small support system was strong.

But the cons were obvious.

He wasn’t able to use one cultivation technique to reach an even higher level.

Other people could cultivate one technique to the peak, to spend decades to raise internal strength to a certain level, and then reach a higher realm.

After he raised a top cultivation technique to the highest level, even if he trained slowly, the internal strength wouldn’t increase.

This was why he needed more to strengthen himself.

Feng Poliu couldn’t understand Young Master Lin.

He also didn’t say anything.

Since he wanted to go to Rong City, then he would go.

Rong City was not far from here but it wasn’t near either. It would take at least 5 days.

During that period of time, Nine Bug Gang didn’t stop looking for him.

But they didn’t get anything.

The portrait was not clear, and to recognize someone through it was really difficult.

Hence, during that period of time, people from Nine Bug Gang were covered in darkness.

People died every day.

Either Gang Leader attacked or those higher-ups killed themselves due to the huge pressure.

They flipped over the area hundreds of miles around but still found nothing.

It was as if that person had evaporated from the world.

After days of rushing, they finally arrived in Rong City.

“I know someone here.” Lin Fan smiled.

Feng Poliu was helpless, “Me too, but they aren’t friendly.”

“You are talking about the gambling den right. The one I know is the daughter of Li Family that nearly became my wife. Although she knows, she isn’t good enough for me and left, but we do know one another.” Lin Fan said.

Could he not do that?

Feng Poliu hated people who bragged.

But he had no choice.

This Young Master Lin kept bragging.

Feng Poliu said, “Young Master Lin, if you want to buy cultivation techniques. let’s contact someone. We need someone to pull strings.”

“Okay, let’s go.” Lin Fan said.

On the way there, he heard from Feng Poliu that many rich families and sects supported these markets.

As for a person doing that alone, it was impossible.

After all, no one had such ability.

He followed Feng Poliu to a gambling den.

Lin Fan looked at him, “You aren’t thinking about going in and gambling a little right?”

“No, the person is inside. You wait for me, I will come out soon.” Feng Poliu said. He walked in but when he was at the entrance, he turned around and said, “Why not lend me some, let me play a hand.”

“No.” Lin Fan rejected.

Feng Poliu sighed.

He didn’t cherish such a good chance to help him when he was down.

Did he have to wait till he was rich and then suck up to him?
