The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 3709: Chapter 3699: What Crime Is There? (Eighth Update)

"Alright, I can try to persuade the sect master to give him a break, but if the sect master is determined, there’s nothing I can do."

The sage-like old man looked at Jun Mo and said, since Jun Mo was so confident that Ye Chen would soar to great heights in the future, he didn’t mind making an investment. After all, it wouldn’t cost him anything, just a little effort in convincing.

Upon hearing this, Jun Mo nodded slightly, as this was the best option, given that the sage-like old man was only the elder, and the final decision still rested with the sect master.

But being able to speak on someone’s behalf was already quite beneficial, as the matter Ye Chen was involved in was neither too big nor too small, all depending on how the sect master of Zhenyuan Palace would decide.

Subsequently, the shadowy figure of the sage-like old man dissipated from the tokens, and Jun Mo turned his gaze towards the direction of Zhenyuan Palace.

"I’ve done what I can; now it all depends on your own fate."

...

Meanwhile, in the South Saint Restaurant, Elder Lin was sitting cross-legged in a room cultivating but suddenly sensed a disturbance entering the room, his eyes narrowed abruptly.

"Hmm?"

Elder Lin clasped the bamboo and thrust it towards the disturbance, discovering it was a Communication Talisman. Upon opening it, the message contained news of Ye Chen angering the Guardian God of Zhenyuan Palace and being taken away by the palace.

"This is troublesome!"

Elder Lin’s face suddenly changed, and he quickly called Elder Gao from the next room.

The two looked at the Communication Talisman, their expressions shifting; although they didn’t want to get involved in Ye Chen’s troubles, he was still a disciple of the Six Paths Sect, and they couldn’t ignore it.

Moreover, the two elders faintly felt that Ye Chen seemed different from what they had assumed, as though his talent was indeed outstanding. Therefore, they immediately set off for Zhenyuan Palace.

...

At this moment, Ye Chen had already been brought to Zhenyuan Palace by Elder Hei Zhi and others.

Zhenyuan Palace was grand and magnificent, with numerous halls inside, the most oppressive and violent being the Heavenly Saint Hall, where major sect affairs were discussed.

Similarly, the Heavenly Saint Hall was used to punish rebellious disciples and enemies, and Ye Chen was being taken there now.

Gazing at the majestic hall, filled with a thousand strands of Auspicious Qi and shrouded in dense Hongmeng Energy, feeling the vast Great Power emanating from within, Ye Chen’s lips curled into a smile.

"Hmph, laughing at the brink of death, there’ll be tears for you soon!"

Elder Hei Zhi, seeing Ye Chen still smiling, glared and then gave him a shove from behind, "Get in there."

Ye Chen stumbled from the push, then suddenly turned to glare at Elder Hei Zhi, with eyes deep as an endless abyss, radiating a chilling intent.

"I advise you, it’s best not to touch me."

Seeing Ye Chen’s gaze, Elder Hei Zhi’s expression changed, feeling immense fear; however, he quickly regained his composure, thinking that he, a proper elder of Zhenyuan Palace, was frightened by a mere waste from the Six Paths Sect at the Heavenly God Realm?

Elder Hei Zhi was about to lash out but realized they had already entered the Heavenly Saint Hall, where numerous elders of Zhenyuan Palace had gathered, along with many inner sanctums disciples standing present, while the sect master looked down coldly at Ye Chen.

"Now you don’t need me to act; your fate is certainly tragic."

Seeing the scene, Elder Hei Zhi sneered maliciously, thinking to himself.

At this moment, Ye Chen was also observing the people in the grand hall; over the years, Zhenyuan Palace indeed had developed better than the Six Paths Sect, as many inner sanctums disciples here had superior strengths compared to those from Six Paths Sect.

Even Yang Qianyu, who ranks first in strength at Six Paths Sect, couldn’t break into the top ten in Zhenyuan Palace.

Now, all these inner sanctums disciples were staring fiercely at Ye Chen, some even showing mocking smiles.

Above them, a group of elders sat, each exuding majesty, their gazes icy like statues of Great Buddha, filled with coldness.

The sect master presiding over the grand hall had an impassive demeanor, his eyes brimming with fury, glaring intensely at Ye Chen.

This current sect master of Zhenyuan Palace, named Yang Tiangyang, had terrifying strength, his presence earth-shaking, sitting there as if holding All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds in his grasp, his eyes seemed to hold worlds within them, living and dying.

"Sect Master, the sinner Ye Chen has been brought!"

Elder Hei Zhi spoke deferentially to Yang Tiangyang.

"Very well."

Yang Tiangyang nodded indifferently and then let Elder Hei Zhi and others take seats, his gaze shifting to Ye Chen.

"Ye Chen, do you acknowledge your sins?"

Yang Tiangyang’s aura was violently oppressive, a world-destroying power sweeping forth, as if intending to crush Ye Chen.

Yet, at this moment, as Ye Chen looked at Yang Tiangyang, his gaze remained calm, without a ripple of emotion.

"Sin? What sin do I have?"

Ye Chen asked indifferently; he had indeed touched the Guardian God Statue, but that contained the sword qi left by Senior Ren. It was merely a communication between him and Senior Ren, irrelevant to Zhenyuan Palace, and he wasn’t guilty of anything.

Upon hearing Ye Chen’s words, Yang Tiangyang’s expression abruptly turned cold.

Simultaneously, all the elders of Zhenyuan Palace as well as many inner sanctums disciples in the hall exploded with anger.

The Golden Dragon Statue is the supreme savior in the hearts of everyone in Zhenyuan Palace. Ye Chen is exceptionally arrogant, touching the Guardian God Statue and angering the savior, yet he still dares to claim he is not guilty.

"Damn! You fool, don’t you know what you’ve done wrong?"

Upon hearing this, Elder Hei Zhi was the first to angrily shout at Ye Chen, he was extremely displeased with Ye Chen, and would never pass up an opportunity to step on him.

"People from the Six Paths Sect are truly despicable, offending the supreme savior of our Zhenyuan Palace and still daring to claim innocence!"

Another elderly elder with a majestic demeanor scolded angrily.

After hearing this, Ye Chen’s gaze suddenly turned cold, looking icily at the white-haired elder.

"Watch your mouth," Ye Chen said coldly.

Upon saying this, the Heavenly Saint Hall was in an uproar; Ye Chen committed a grave offense, not only refusing to admit guilt but daring to act so recklessly here—it was simply lawless and extremely arrogant!

"Damn fool, you dare talk to me like that!"

The white-haired elder was also so angry that his beard trembled, his chest heaving incessantly.

At this moment, numerous inner sect disciples also started criticizing Ye Chen.

"A mere ant at the Heavenly God Realm, where do you get the guts to be so reckless in our Zhenyuan Palace? Anyone in the Heavenly Saint Hall can easily crush you, ant!"

"Hmph, the Six Paths Sect has really fallen, to train someone so arrogant and shameless. I suggest executing this waste!"

"Indeed! I implore the sect master to execute Ye Chen and sever ties with the Six Paths Sect!"

At this moment, the entire Heavenly Saint Hall was shaken; Zhenyuan Palace had long wanted to sever ties with the Six Paths Sect. They rose due to the Six Paths Sect’s support.

But after the Six Paths Sect’s decline, Zhenyuan Palace instead considered it a disgrace to have received support from the Six Paths Sect in the past, as now the Six Paths Sect was far inferior to them.

At this moment, everyone in the Heavenly Saint Hall had flickering gazes, realizing that the matter with Ye Chen was an opportunity to sever ties completely with the Six Paths Sect!

"We implore the sect master to execute Ye Chen, severing ties with the Six Paths Sect!"

Currently, most elders in the grand hall supported this proposal, shouting loudly, except for a few whose expressions changed without speaking.

Among these few was the sage-like old man sitting in the first row to the right under the sect master.

At this moment, Elder Lv Tianlu, dressed in a robe accented with gold thread, exuded an extraordinary aura and was staring deeply at Ye Chen.

Lv Tianlu had arrived at the Heavenly Saint Hall after receiving a message from Jun Mo, and as Ye Chen entered the Heavenly Saint Hall, he had been observing Ye Chen.

Lv Tianlu wanted to see if Ye Chen was indeed as Jun Mo guaranteed, absolutely capable of immeasurable achievements.

During this time, Lv Tianlu also discovered Ye Chen had an extraordinary demeanor, even shrouded in Great Destiny, facing sect master Yang Tiangyang and numerous elders, under such terrifying pressure, but as a mere Heavenly God Realm, Ye Chen displayed no fear, already proving Ye Chen’s exceptional nature.

"This kid is worth saving,"

At this moment, Lv Tianlu looked at Ye Chen, thinking to himself.

Inside the Heavenly Saint Hall, countless people petitioned the sect master to execute Ye Chen, severing ties with the Six Paths Sect.

Yang Tiangyang, at this time, also narrowed his eyes, staring at Ye Chen, contemplating whether to heed the words of the sect members.

Yang Tiangyang held the greatest disdain for the Six Paths Sect and most ardently wished to sever ties with them, but seeing the towering Southern Saint Stone Statue in the Heavenly Saint Hall made him hesitate.

The Southern Saint and the founder of the Six Paths Sect, Xiao Shuihan, were close friends, and seeing the current situation, would never permit this.

Yang Tiangyang, bearing the responsibility of the entire Zhenyuan Palace, had to consider every decision carefully, particularly something as significant as severing ties with the Six Paths Sect, creating many concerns, momentarily unable to make a decision.

Just then, two figures flew into the Heavenly Saint Hall from outside, charging directly into the grand hall the next moment.

"Elder Gao, Elder Lin?"

Seeing the arriving figures, Ye Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, having not expected Elders Gao Lin to come.

Yet Ye Chen quickly understood, the elders Gao Lin had likely been informed by Jun Mo as well.

Above the Heavenly Saint Hall, Elder Lv Tianlu, seeing the appearance of Elders Gao Lin, couldn’t help but close his just-opened mouth, prepared to plead for Ye Chen.

At this moment, the appearance of elders Gao Lin made the numerous elders of Zhenyuan Palace even angrier.

"Elder Gao! Look at the disciple your Six Paths Sect has trained, utterly foolish! The Six Paths Sect is truly losing its touch!"

"Elder Lin, we invited you to be our guests at Zhenyuan Palace in good faith, and this is how you act as guests? Outrageous, today Ye Chen must die!"

"We want to execute Ye Chen and sever all ties with the Six Paths Sect!"

At this moment, Elders Gao Lin watched the numerous angry shouting elders, their faces unpleasantly dark.

Elders Gao Lin were both dissatisfied with Zhenyuan Palace’s slander of the Six Paths Sect and angry at Ye Chen for his reckless actions, knowing full well Zhenyuan Palace would continuously give trouble, yet still meddling with Zhenyuan Palace’s Guardian God Statue, causing immense calamity.

However, no matter what, Ye Chen, as a disciple of the Six Paths Sect, couldn’t be ignored as they left the sect when Wu Duan Cang repeatedly instructed them to ensure Ye Chen’s safety.
