Super God Grandmaster
Chapter 854 - 854 840

Chapter 854: Chapter 840 Chapter 854: Chapter 840 “Let’s just leave,” suggested Wan Danrong.

“That’s not an option, how can we just leave?” The Eccentric Divine Doctor was right, if they didn’t get rid of the Resentful Spirits soon, Wan Danrong could be in danger, Yun’er thought to herself.

Ye Chen looked at Yang Tao’er and asked, “Do we have no other choice?”

“No other choice,” Yang Tao’er glanced at him.

Turning his head, Ye Chen walked over to Guo Yuyun, muttering to himself about his bad luck. Even in Kunlun Mountain, demon-monsters took a fancy to him, and back in the Central Plains, he still encountered such incidents. It seemed being too outstanding wasn’t always a good thing.

Guo Yuyun was furious and didn’t know what to do.

Ye Chen wouldn’t give up on saving Rong’er. He whispered, “Yun’er, what if we just pretend to agree?”

“Pretend? How do we pretend?” Yun’er kept cursing the Eccentric Divine Doctor under her breath.

“By letting him save Rong’er first.”

“You mean marry her?”

“It’s just pretend, I’ll definitely remain chaste for you.”

“As if I’d believe that!” scoffed Guo Yuyun.

“Then what do we do?”

“You’re actually happy about this, aren’t you?”

“On my honor, how could I be happy?”

“You started drooling the moment you got in here. You’re not happy now? Is it possible you’ll just make it seem real when the time comes.”

Speechless, Ye Chen touched his forehead.

“This Eccentric Divine Doctor, why so stubborn?”

“Maybe it’s because I’m too impressive, too well-known.”

Yun’er kicked him and muttered, “Still pretending, I might believe anyone else, but not you.”

“So what should we do?”

“I refuse to believe that he’s the only divine doctor in the world.”

Suddenly, the lady in white ahead of them said, “Okay, I’ll stop now.”

Ye Chen and the others turned around, asking, “You’ll stop?”

“I was just joking with you,” said the woman in white as she walked over to the old man with the white beard.

Ye Chen asked, “So you agree to save Rong’er without any conditions?”

“That’s right, considering all you’ve done for the Immortal and Demon realms, all the good deeds you’ve performed for the mortal world,” the woman in white replied.

Ye Chen and the others were somewhat incredulous.

Guo Yuyun looked at Ye Chen and said, “Isn’t it a bit of a pity?”

“What do you mean by that?” Ye Chen quickly retorted.

“Human talk.”

The woman in white spoke up, “Who knows how to cook, come and help me quickly.”

“I can,” Ye Chen said, “Do you want fried fish, or should I slaughter a chicken…”

Before he could finish speaking, Guo Yuyun shoved him hard, calling out, “Li Mo, go over and help.”

Divine Doctor Zhu called out from the side, “Girl, aren’t you coming in?”

He was calling for Wan Danrong, who glanced at Ye Chen; Ye Chen then said, “Go inside.”

Inside the house, which wasn’t too dark, were various dried herbs. Divine Doctor Zhu took out a sheepskin bag filled with Silver Needles and also lit a candle.

It looked like he was going to perform acupuncture.

Ye Chen inquired, “Divine Doctor, how do you plan to treat her?”

“First, we’ll seal the Resentful Spirits, then try to drive them out,” Divine Doctor Zhu replied.

“Is there anything I can do to help?”

“Marry my goddaughter,” he said.

“Hey, Divine Doctor, why would you pick me?” Ye Chen asked curiously. “I’d rather find you a wife than deal with marrying your daughter. That’s really putting me in a difficult position.”

Divine Doctor Zhu gave a cold smile and took out some Silver Needles from the bag.

He searched for the acupuncture points on Wan Danrong’s body.

Suddenly Divine Doctor Zhu said, “How did the Dragon Slaying Clan enter the Central Plains so quickly?”

He seemed interested in this.

“They were prepared in advance,” Ye Chen explained. “Before the Raging Wolf Clan was annihilated, they had already entered the Central Plains. They predicted that in case of failure, there would inevitably be a war with the Immortal and Demon realms, so they took proactive measures.”

“But Immortal City shouldn’t be so weak. How could it be breached before the armies from the Immortal and Demon realms arrived? This is too fast.”

Seeing the doctor’s genuine interest, Ye Chen said, “You can’t blame them. They came prepared and launched their attack after the Demon Palace’s troops had left. It was right after the incident with the Raging Wolf Clan; many of their defense systems had suffered serious damage, resources were greatly depleted, and everyone was exhausted.”

Divine Doctor Zhu nodded, his interest because Yang Tao’er mentioned that the Immortal and Demon realms were in a critical state, leading him to relent. He asked, “If that’s the case, do you think the people of the Immortal and Demon realms can handle the Dragon Slaying Clan?”

Ye Chen fell silent for a moment before responding, “It’s hard to say now, especially since we don’t know what the Dragon Slaying Clan has brought with them.”

Divine Doctor Zhu continued with the acupuncture on Wan Danrong.

Ye Chen was more curious about how long it would take for the Resentful Spirits to leave Rong’er. He said, “We still have to be grateful to you, Divine Doctor.”

“Don’t thank me. If it weren’t for the crisis in the Immortal and Demon realms, I would never have relented,” Divine Doctor Zhu responded coldly.

“Honestly, I was hoping you wouldn’t relent.”

“You can tell she’s not your biological daughter; otherwise, you wouldn’t force her to marry him,” Rong’er said.

“What are you talking about?” In response, Divine Doctor Zhu jabbed her hard with a needle, causing Wan Danrong to cry out in pain.

Ye Chen smiled and said, “You asked for it.”

“I’m speaking the truth, why would anyone push towards the fire?”

“Then why would you throw yourself into the fire?” Ye Chen asked.

Wan Danrong rolled her eyes at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen changed the subject and asked, “Divine Doctor, how long will it take to get rid of the Resentful Spirits from this girl?” Clearly, there were more important matters at hand, and he couldn’t afford any delays.

“Resentful Spirits can’t be removed in just a day or two. First, you have to seal it, then numb it, until it lets down its guard, before finding a way to lure it out.”

“So I’ll have to stay here for several days?”

Wan Danrong said, “He wants to help out.”

Divine Doctor Zhu glanced at him and said, “You don’t need to stay here, as long as she stays.”

Ye Chen perked up upon hearing this and said, “Really? That’s great. You’re not planning to sell her off, are you?”

Divine Doctor Zhu smiled coldly.

“As such a righteous person, you wouldn’t do that, right?” Ye Chen said.

“You better go take care of your own business,” Wan Danrong said.

“If I really leave you here, you’ll have to fend for yourself.”

“I don’t want to follow you around anyway; you’re annoying to watch.”

“It’s the first time you’ve said that.”

“Ah…” Another cry, and her forehead, arm, and neck were all pricked with Silver Needles.

Ye Chen spoke again, “Then wait here for me. Once I’ve dealt with exterminating the Dragon Slaying Clan, I’ll come back for you.”

“No need, I’ll go back to Wanshou City on my own after I’m healed.”

“You’re heading back to the Wastelands?”

“Of course, I’m going back to the Wastelands.”

“But you haven’t really taken a proper tour around the Central Plains.”

“Touring with you and Yun’er is just asking for misery.”

“It’s really great that you think so.”

“Get lost…” Wan Danrong asked the Divine Doctor, “How long will this needling take?”

Divine Doctor Zhu replied coldly, “Until it’s healed.”

“I see, I might as well turn into a hedgehog then.”

“Would you rather keep the Resentful Spirits and become androgynous?”

“Hey, no, please remove them as quickly as you can.”

Ye Chen stood up and, looking at Wan Danrong’s worried expression, said, “I’d better go outside; I really can’t stand seeing the needling. It feels as if they’re being pricked into me.”

Wan Danrong gave him a cold glance.

Ye Chen added, “Divine Doctor, you should have just told her to marry you from the start; if you threatened her with androgyny, she would surely have agreed.”

A kick came flying at him, and Ye Chen jumped out of the courtyard.

He then saw Li Mo cooking in the kitchen, looking quite skilled, while Guo Yuyun was making a fire.

Yang Tao’er was holding a basket, presumably to pick vegetables from the garden.

He hadn’t realized that dusk had crept upon them.

Ye Chen followed after Yang Tao’er.

“Aren’t you afraid the she-monkey will see and strangle you again?” Yang Tao’er asked.

“Ah, there’s nothing I can do about it,” he replied.

The two of them stepped out through the gate.

Yang Tao’er asked, “Have you really not thought about marrying me?”

“Of course I have. Who wouldn’t want such a beautiful woman? But it’s not as simple as doing whatever I want.”

“True, the she-monkey was an issue, but now that she’s not here, you can speak freely.”

“It’s not quite like what you’re saying,” Ye Chen said as he followed closely behind her.

“How about this, I’ll bewitch all of you, and then we can marry as planned, spending the wedding night together. Later, you can just say you knew nothing. How about that?” Yang Tao’er suggested.

Ye Chen looked at her in astonishment, silent for a moment, then said, “Good idea, worth considering.”

“Then she can’t blame you, and you’ll have begun your journey of having three wives and four concubines. From then on, what you say goes and no one can hold it against you.”

“You’re such a brilliant strategist, far cleverer than I am,” he said.

The two of them walked deeper into the vegetable garden.

“Why are you so set on marrying me?”

“My godfather likes you,” she answered.

“His liking me is his business; your marriage is about your lifetime of happiness.”

“My father isn’t wrong; if you can sort out such a big issue, you probably won’t be too bad.”

“You actually believe what your father says; thank goodness I’m not a lecher, otherwise you’d be in trouble.”

They walked into the garden, where she quickly picked some fruits and vegetables.

“We might leave here tomorrow. Could you help me take care of that girl?”

“What’s our relationship? We’ve only just met, and you’re asking me to take care of her,” Yang Tao’er speculated, clearly understanding the situation with the Resentful Spirits after years following her godfather and learning from him.

“Please help out. We need to hurry over and meet with people from the Immortal and Demon Domains to confront the Dragon Slaying Clan.”

“The Dragon Slaying Clan is going to attack Demon Palace City?”

“Eight or nine out of ten,” Ye Chen speculated.

“Demon Palace City can’t be that easy to break through, right?”

“Shouldn’t be,” Ye Chen continued, “Their Defense System is probably more complete.”

“So how will you repay me?”

“You’re not expecting me to spend a night with you, right? I’m not into one-night stands.”

“Keep dreaming.”
