The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 3598: Chapter 3588: Han Wenxin’s Request (Second Update)

"This..."

Ye Chen was momentarily stunned, looking at the woman with the exquisite figure, only to find that she was indeed unconscious. But why would she call his name in such a situation?

"Who are you really..."

Ye Chen had too many questions about this woman, and couldn’t help but extend his hand to uncover her veil.

"Who’s there!"

A weak voice suddenly spoke, and Ye Chen’s expression slightly changed. The other party had awoken and caught his hand.

"Is it you?"

Wei Ying spotted Ye Chen, a flash of panic crossing her eyes. She realized Ye Chen had just intended to uncover her veil.

Almost having her real identity discovered by Ye Chen gave Wei Ying a fright. She quickly released his hand and averted her gaze.

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward at this moment. Wei Ying’s injuries were too severe, and suddenly waking up tugged at her wounds, making her cough involuntarily, with fresh blood staining her veil.

"Your injuries are too severe, you need immediate treatment."

Ye Chen couldn’t help but speak, quickly extending his hand with a streak of blood appearing: "Drink my blood."

In Ye Chen’s view, no pill was more effective than his blood.

Upon hearing this, Wei Ying couldn’t help but look up, her beautiful eyes glistening as she deeply gazed at Ye Chen.

At this moment, the Sky-covering Demon Emperor and Jun Mo exchanged a glance, let out a light cough, and then said, "We’ll stand guard outside, heal her quickly. Those guys won’t let this go, and we can’t hide here for long."

"Alright."

Ye Chen nodded in agreement as the Sky-covering Demon Emperor and Jun Mo turned to leave.

Then Ye Chen let Wei Ying drink his blood and also took out a medicinal pill to heal her, while also helping to treat Wu Mang.

Wu Mang had sacrificed himself to block Huo Qingtian’s spear for Wei Ying, almost dying in the process. Fortunately, Huo Qingtian wasn’t targeting him, and Wu Mang had just gotten close when the violent Divine Might threw him back, only stalling for a moment. If he had taken the full hit, he would have certainly died.

Throughout this process, Wei Ying’s bright eyes remained fixed on Ye Chen, as if she wanted to imprint his appearance in her mind, which stirred a peculiar feeling in Ye Chen’s heart as well.

Wei Ying and Wu Mang’s injuries were too severe, and even Ye Chen’s blood couldn’t make Wei Ying recover immediately. Full recovery would take some time.

Amidst the awkward atmosphere, an endless surge of demonic qi suddenly swept in, and the Sky-covering Demon Emperor appeared solemnly before Ye Chen and Wei Ying.

"Someone’s coming."

The Sky-covering Demon Emperor spoke coldly.

"How many?"

Ye Chen’s gaze suddenly turned sharp, and he asked.

Currently, with Wei Ying severely injured and powerless to fight, Ye Chen and Jun Mo would struggle against experts of the Heavenly Repairing Realm. If too many arrived, the Sky-covering Demon Emperor alone couldn’t hold them back.

"There are quite a few, including some at the fourth-level Supreme Emperor realm. I’m not their match," the Sky-covering Demon Emperor shook his head and said.

At these words, Ye Chen’s expression slightly changed, and Jun Mo approached with a furrowed brow.

"We should break through. Staying here is a dead end. There’s something strange about this ancient palace; it can’t tear through space or even be broken. We can only leave from where we came in, which will inevitably lead to a confrontation."

Jun Mo had investigated the area, and his conclusion left him a bit disheartened.

With Wei Ying gravely injured, the three of them could hardly withstand so many Heavenly Repairing Realm experts, let alone one at the fourth-level Supreme Emperor realm. Breaking through seemed nearly impossible, almost a certain-death situation.

"In that case, we’ll have to break through."

Ye Chen’s gaze turned cold, and he stood up without hesitation. No matter what, he wouldn’t abandon Wei Ying. Even in a life-or-death situation, he would fight for a chance to survive.

"Ye Chen!"

At this moment, Wei Ying suddenly spoke, her gaze clear and cold as she looked at Ye Chen, yet a unique emotion lingered in her eyes.

"Don’t break through. You’re not their match. Let me go, and I’ll draw their attention. You can seize the moment to escape."

Seemingly worried that Ye Chen would refuse, Wei Ying continued, "Don’t worry, they’re after me. Once they see me, they’ll pursue without hesitation, and you can leave safely."

"That’s precisely why I’m worried."

Ye Chen shook his head, "I won’t abandon you. Give up on that idea. Trust me, I can get you out unscathed."

Hearing this, Wei Ying couldn’t help but smile wryly. Ye Chen was still so stubborn. Easier said than done -- escaping completely? How could that be possible?

The Sky-covering Demon Emperor and Jun Mo looked gravely at the deep black passageway. Ripples were already coming through, signaling the sandstorm outside the ancient palace. Clearly, the intruders had discovered the ancient palace and were about to enter.

"There’s no time. Stop hesitating, let me go to divert them!"

Crisis imminent, Wei Ying grew anxious and couldn’t help but stand, knowing fully well staying meant death for everyone. It was better to sacrifice herself for Ye Chen.

"No!"

Ye Chen grabbed Wei Ying’s wrist firmly, his gaze steadfast.

"You know full well staying here is a dead end. Letting me lead them away is the only chance. Relax, I won’t die either."

Wei Ying insisted, though her severe injuries made her cough up blood again, and Ye Chen certainly didn’t believe her.

"Even in death today, I won’t abandon you."

Ye Chen’s gaze hardened as the outside sandstorm calmed once more, indicating the intruders had entered the ancient palace. He even heard footsteps echoing through the passage.

"Sigh..."

At that moment, the Samsara Graveyard within Ye Chen suddenly trembled. Ye Chen sensed Han Wenxin’s reappearance and quickly entered the Samsara Graveyard.

"Kid, you truly are persistent."

Han Wenxin rubbed his scruffy beard, looking at Ye Chen with a hint of helplessness.

"Senior, I must do this."

Ye Chen looked at Han Wenxin with deep resolve, clearly expressing his stance. No matter Han Wenxin’s persuasion, he wouldn’t abandon Wei Ying.

"I know I can’t change your mind."

At this moment, Han Wenxin shook his head, letting his aura flow out, vast and grand, full of righteousness.

"I know appearing in the Samsara Graveyard binds us in Karma. This is trouble I brought onto myself, and I’ll accept it."

These words caused Ye Chen’s brow to furrow. Han Wenxin seemed inclined to lend a hand, though Ye Chen was unsure of Han Wenxin’s capabilities and whether they could aid them in overcoming this crisis.

"Rest assured, as long as I take action, they can’t harm you. But you must agree to one thing."

Han Wenxin seemingly discerned Ye Chen’s thoughts and spoke immediately.

"What is it?"

Hearing Han Wenxin’s assurance, Ye Chen couldn’t help but ask.
