The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 3257: Chapter 4034: The Leng Family’s Wrath (Second Update)

However, because of Ren’s appearance, before coming to the Empress Heavenly Palace, he had secretly erased all traces related to Ye Chen.

He clearly remembered Ren’s instructions, absolutely not to reveal the slightest information about Ye Chen, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to return to the Heavenly Dao Palace alive!

"Hmm."

Xuan Jiyue nodded, her delicate hand reached over to grab the jade scrolls, and her divine soul scanned the intelligence inside.

"Empress, that Sin Woman named Xia Ruoxue has already refined your Reincarnation Star Flame Residual Fire, her strength advancing by leaps and bounds."

"Also, Lord Xuanji seems to have been killed by someone called the Sky-covering Demon Emperor."

Xuanyuan Moxie reported respectfully, absolutely not mentioning anything about Ye Chen, only speaking of Xia Ruoxue’s Karma.

"Is that so?"

Xuan Jiyue frowned, noticing that the intelligence in the jade scrolls was very little, with nothing of value, and there seemed to be marks of fracture between the pieces of intelligence, as if some primitive content had been erased.

"Did you tamper with the intelligence in this jade scroll?"

Xuan Jiyue’s gaze turned cold as she stared at Xuanyuan Moxie.

"No, no, Empress, how could I dare to tamper with the information you ordered me to investigate?"

Listening to Xuan Jiyue’s words, Xuanyuan Moxie’s face remained calm, without a hint of guilt.

Before stepping into the Empress Heavenly Palace, he had a premonition of being exposed, so he had already mentally prepared.

Now with Xuan Jiyue questioning him, he immediately denied it, showing no sign of panic.

"Xuanyuan Moxie, who do you think I am? If I couldn’t see through your little tricks, I wouldn’t deserve to sit in this position!"

"Tell me, is it that person, telling you to conceal the intelligence and deliberately deceive me?"

Xuan Jiyue "Pa!" threw the jade scrolls on the ground, her gaze icy cold.

"Empress, please be calm, if you don’t believe me, I can personally act to capture the Sin Woman Xia Ruoxue and bring her before you. If you question her personally, you will know the underlying Karma."

Xuanyuan Moxie smiled calmly, having already prepared his explanation.

"Oh?"

Listening to Xuanyuan Moxie’s words, Xuan Jiyue’s heart was suddenly stirred.

Forcing Xuanyuan Moxie to spill the truth was indeed no easy task, but if she could capture Xia Ruoxue and interrogate her personally, she believed there would be no secrets that could remain hidden.

Under her methods, no matter how tough Xia Ruoxue’s bones were, she couldn’t withstand it.

Xuanyuan Moxie remained calm and composed; if Xia Ruoxue was captured and handed over to Xuan Jiyue for interrogation, and when Ye Chen’s Karma was revealed, it would be Xia Ruoxue’s problem, unrelated to him.

That mysterious young man Ren, if blame were to be placed, it would fall on Xuan Jiyue, not on him.

The opposite party had stated there would be no arbitrary interference with other’s game, seemingly cautious of some rules, a point he astutely noticed, hence he played a little trick, neither offending the other party nor Xuan Jiyue, thriving amidst both sides.

As for the end, when Xuan Jiyue realized he had indeed tampered with the intelligence, there might be a punishment, but annihilation was unlikely, and it was within his tolerance range.

Moreover, by then, if he succeeded in Slaying Master to Prove Dao, his merits would be perfected, his strength advancing by leaps and bounds, he might already have the qualifications to challenge Xuan Jiyue’s edge, unafraid of her punishment.

"Fine, as you say, once you return, capture the Sin Woman Xia Ruoxue and bring her to the Upper Realm for me. There will be a heavy reward!"

Xuan Jiyue instructed, as Xuanyuan Moxie was too cunning, and his unverified intelligence couldn’t be fully trusted, requiring cross-verification with intelligence from other aspects for a perfected result.

If she could catch Xia Ruoxue, she could get extra information.

By then, she could glimpse the underlying Karma and prepare in advance.

"Yes, Empress, with your permission, I take my leave now."

Xuanyuan Moxie bowed slightly, turning to leave.

He dared not stay further in the Empress Heavenly Palace, lest Xuan Jiyue change her mind, he might not return alive to the Heavenly Dao Palace.

Although Xuan Jiyue’s strength was not as terrifying as that mysterious young man Ren, if the latter acted, with his current strength, it would be hard to contend.

Become stronger!

He must become stronger quickly!

Xuanyuan Moxie felt tremendous pressure in his heart.

This journey to the Upper Realm was utterly transformative to his mental realm.

...

Meanwhile, deep within Boundary City, in an extremely grand and opulent mansion, a voice suddenly bellowed: "Who! Who killed my son! I will tear them to pieces!"

This is the Leng Residence in Boundary City.

The Qing family ranks first in the Dao of Alchemy in Boundary City, but in martial arts, the Qing family falls short against many families.

Especially the deeper Leng family.

And the speaker is a slightly plump middle-aged man, bearing a striking resemblance to Leng Ping, sporting a three-strand beard, dressed in a luxurious brocade robe, exuding an aura of a superior.

This man is none other than the contemporary family head of the Leng family’s branch, Lenggu!

Lenggu was currently flushed with anger, the strong aura around him raging violently, turning the furniture in the hall to dust, his veins throbbing furiously, evidently enraged to the extreme!

Leng Ping was his most doted youngest son!

Now, he had been killed!

His fury was about to ignite his blood!

And the servant kneeling before Lenggu, reporting that Leng Ping’s Life Fire left in the residence had been extinguished, was now shivering with fear, absolutely terrified.

Lenggu roared at the servant: "During the Pill Venerate Conference someone dared to be so reckless! Investigate! Use all the family’s resources, spare no effort in finding out who did it! If you can’t find out, I’ll use your blood to avenge my son!"

The servant was so frightened, they paled, not daring to utter a word of disagreement, hurriedly replying: "Yes, my lord!"

Saying so, they hurried out, sweating profusely, to mobilize manpower to investigate Leng Ping’s death.

After the servant left, Lenggu’s eyes gleamed with a murderous light, gritting his teeth; anyone daring to provoke the overlord of this Boundary City region would certainly meet a very, very tragic end!

Suddenly, outside the courtyard in front of the hall, a figure flashed by, and a man leisurely stepped into the courtyard, heading towards Lenggu’s hall.

The man, while walking, said lightly: "Lenggu, your son is dead?"

Upon hearing this, Lenggu’s face showed fury, spiritual energy boiling over, his whole being on the edge of an explosion!

Who was so bold? Dare to call him by name at this time, and directly mention his son’s death?

He prepared to berate, about to take action to kill this person, but when he saw clearly the man’s face, he jolted, his almost exploding mind instantly calming down.

The anger on Lenggu’s face vanished, and facing this man, he not only showed no sign of anger but instead greeted with a broad smile: "Deacon Li, what brings you here."

His attitude was incredibly respectful!
