The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 4150: Chapter 4150: Drawing the Snake Out of Its Hole! (Third Update)

After probing with divine soul, Ye Chen also discovered that within Blood Nether Valley, there are quite a few forces and families, but the strongest among them, dominating the entire Blood Nether Valley, is the Violent Wind Palace.

The Violent Wind Palace is the undisputed ruler of Blood Nether Valley; all forces within must bow to it.

This is all due to its palace leader, Nangong Kuangba, a powerful expert at the eighth-level Daoyuan realm. Apart from him, the strongest person in Blood Nether Valley is merely at the Sixth Level of the Qiankun Realm.

Only Nangong Kuangba is worthy of action by the seventh-level Ghost Shadow, leading Ye Chen, based on his judgment, to target Nangong Kuangba.

As Ye Chen understands, Nangong Kuangba has been encountering a Deviation during cultivation training recently, sustaining internal injuries, constantly staying within Violent Wind Palace, never venturing out.

Ghost Shadow likely seized the opportunity of Nangong Kuangba’s injury to make a move, yet he remains in Blood Nether Valley, possibly because Nangong Kuangba hasn’t left Violent Wind Palace, making it tricky for him to act.

Although the strongest in Blood Nether Valley, aside from Nangong Kuangba, is at the Sixth Level of Qiankun Realm, Violent Wind Palace holds countless array formations and numerous personnel. If one’s movements are discovered, engaging in a fight with Ghost Shadow might not end favorably.

"Interesting..."

Ye Chen squinted slightly, feeling the situation growing increasingly intriguing.

In the proceeding time, Ye Chen didn’t rashly approach Violent Wind Palace.

Since Ghost Shadow wants to deal with Nangong Kuangba, he’s surely keeping an eye on Violent Wind Palace. Ye Chen getting close rashly could alert Nangong Kuangba.

Throughout the night, Ye Chen relied on divine soul to probe for news about Ghost Shadow and Nangong Kuangba, keeping an eye on the map to always know Ghost Shadow’s location.

Meanwhile, at the Dead Spirit Hall, Qing Wanji and Qiao Lan stood together, observing a map formed by condensed spiritual energy—it’s a map of Blood Nether Valley!

On the map, there are three red dots, Ye Chen and Ghost Shadow reside among them.

"Hehe, these three individuals are amusing, all remaining unmoved."

Qiao Lan eyed the map’s three red dots, couldn’t help but mutter.

Upon hearing this, Qing Wanji squinted, shook his head, speaking with a deep tone: "You’re seeing things too simply. This Chen Ye and Nangong Kuangba aren’t simple beings; I’m finding this youngster more promising."

"Ah? Why say this?"

Qiao Lan felt puzzled, glanced surprised at Qing Wanji.

"Firstly, Nangong Kuangba hasn’t moved, staying in Violent Wind Palace; he’s likely sensed the crisis, guessed someone intends to assassinate him, so he remains within Violent Wind Palace."

Qing Wanji observed the red dot representing Nangong Kuangba on the map, with a cold expression remarked.

"And what about Chen Ye?"

Qiao Lan, hearing this explanation, instantly grew curious, couldn’t hold back asking.

"Chen Ye is waiting for the rabbit beside the stump."

In Qing Wanji’s eyes flashed an admiration: "It’s the wisest choice; a precise judgment on the situation. He merely arrived at Blood Nether Valley, yet realized this point, indeed a good prospect."

"Waiting for the rabbit beside the stump?"

Qiao Lan paused, then reacted: "He waits for Ghost Shadow to attempt the assassination of Nangong Kuangba, intending to reap the fisherman’s benefit."

"That’s correct."

Qing Wanji nodded appreciatively at Qiao Lan: "But it’s not as simple as you think; he must set numerous arrangements to ensure he can kill Ghost Shadow with certainty."

"This youngster is worthy of nurturing, provided he isn’t here for the Bloodline Origin."

Having said that, Qing Wanji did not speak further, watching the change on the map amongst the three red dots.

Despite Ghost Shadow being Qing Wanji’s avatar, clear on Ye Chen’s presence in Blood Nether Valley, wanting to wait for the rabbit beside the stump to assassinate himself.

Yet Ghost Shadow does nothing, wholly treating Ye Chen as nonexistent. This is because Qing Wanji wants to use Ye Chen to eliminate this avatar, extinguishing suspicions of those behind him, while probing whether Ye Chen sincerely wishes to join Dead Spirit Hall.

The night passes in the blink of an eye, yet during this nocturnal period, Ghost Shadow does not take action, nor does Nangong Kuangba show any movement.

Ye Chen presently feels a tinge of anxiety; Ghost Shadow can slowly plan to assassinate Nangong Kuangba, yet his assassination of Ghost Shadow has a time limit, and such delay is detrimental to him.

As Ye Chen grows anxious, within Violent Wind Palace, Nangong Kuangba sits upon the dragon chair, eyes coldly fixed upon the distant Void, below him are ten Sixth Level of Qiankun Realm subordinates.

"This person still hasn’t acted."

Nangong Kuangba wore an ominous look, feeling vexed; indeed as Qing Wanji speculated, he sensed the danger, aware of someone’s intention to assassinate him.

Thus, even though Nangong Kuangba’s wounds have recovered, he still opts to remain curled up within Violent Wind Palace, awaiting the assassin to fall into his trap. Yet the opponent shows extreme patience, like a Poisonous Snake, surveying the surroundings, yet remaining inactive.

The deadlock continues, yet the more it drags, Nangong Kuangba grows more uneasy; the opponent’s patience is terrifying, an extraordinarily lethal assassin, prolonging this confrontation will ultimately disadvantage him.

"To face assassins, only proactive no-action engagement brings them out of the dark, confronting them head-on, annihilating all the assassin’s advantages!"

Nangong Kuangba’s gaze became cold, abruptly rose, looked upon the ten Sixth Level of Qiankun Realm subordinates below.

"Set out, accompany me to Blood Nether Cave; it appears there’s a situation there."

Nangong Kuangba’s gaze profound, addressed the ten Sixth Level of Qiankun Realm subordinates.

Blood Nether Cave is an area extremely rich in resources, governed by Violent Wind Palace, perpetually exploited for its resources.

Recently, rumors suggest the emergence of Ghosts within Blood Nether Cave, leading to the loss of numerous Violent Wind Palace subordinates, yet Ghosts’ whereabouts remain hidden, hence requests have arisen for Nangong Kuangba to suppress the Ghosts.

Per Nangong Kuangba’s deduction, these Ghosts likely reflect the machinations of his potential assassin, meanwhile, a plan already forms in his mind to force the Ghosts out.

Soon, Nangong Kuangba’s carriage soared from within Violent Wind Palace, ten Sixth Level of Qiankun Realm experts guarded closely, heading towards Blood Nether Cave’s direction.

Within the carriage, Nangong Kuangba’s aura was violent, proudly emanates, asserting his dominion over Blood Nether Valley’s various forces, also illustrating his recovered strength, deterring all around.

"Finally moving."

Ye Chen observed Nangong Kuangba’s carriage flying toward Blood Nether Cave, eyes narrowing, prepared to rise and follow in concealment, yet abruptly halted.

"Something’s not right."

Ye Chen’s gaze sharp, based on his predictions, Nangong Kuangba, as Blood Nether Valley’s ruler, isn’t a fool, so Nangong Kuangba should have detected that someone’s aiming to assassinate him.

In such circumstances, Nangong Kuangba daring to emerge so openly suggests two possibilities: one, declaring boldly to the assassins his fearlessness, awaiting them to walk into his trap.

Two, Nangong Kuangba employs deceit; his True Body isn’t within the carriage at all, merely luring the snake from its hole!
