Chapter 737: Little Baby, Don’t Run Away

The guard was berated so viciously that he felt deeply wronged. To make matters worse, Yan Long was now insisting he kowtow and apologize. He was at his wit’s end.

Isn’t Master the one who’s always yelling about wanting to beat up Ye Xiu?

Still, he knelt and kowtowed to Ye Xiu in humiliation.

"My apologies, Divine Doctor Ye."

Though he kowtowed and apologized, the guard was still puzzled. Why does Master suddenly seem so afraid of Ye Xiu? What’s going on?

At that moment, the members of Heaven Net from the Eight Great National Protector War Gods came running out, weapons in hand. Upon seeing Ye Xiu, they all breathed a sigh of relief, assuming some troublemaker had arrived.

"Since we’re all here, I won’t have to make a separate trip," Ye Xiu said, giving Qing Luan a meaningful look. "Qing Luan, didn’t you say on the phone you had a stomachache?"

Qing Luan was startled for a moment. "Yes, yes! That’s why I called you, Divine Doctor Ye. I was hoping you could take my pulse."

"Lead the way!" Ye Xiu picked up the backpack from his bicycle’s basket. Seeing Dong Puti about to follow, he added, "As a girl, you understand what a ’stomachache’ can mean. You don’t need to follow and embarrass Qing Luan."

"Alright!" Dong Puti nodded.

Yan Long and the others had intended to tag along for a look, but after hearing Ye Xiu’s words, they were suddenly too embarrassed to follow. A girl’s stomachache meant either menstrual cramps or a problem with her cycle.

"Being a doctor is a sweet deal," Yan Long muttered, smacking his lips.

Ye Xiu and Qing Luan entered the Xuanse Community and found a secluded spot.

Qing Luan asked, "Did you need me for something?"

"Yes!" Ye Xiu took a large bundle from his backpack. "This is the Life Totem. Everyone in Heaven Net, except for Yan Long and his disciple, gets one. Just inject it directly. Tonight, while you sleep, kill yourselves. After you resurrect, the Life Totem will awaken.

"The Life Totem allows for self-healing, and once activated, you can also use it to heal others.

"It also allows you to be resurrected after death, provided the enemy doesn’t mince your corpse, burn it to ash, or destroy your head.

"Absorbing spiritual energy through cultivation will trigger the Life Totem’s second awakening, granting you the power of a Third Realm War God. After some time, I’ll help you with the third awakening.

"Furthermore, you must keep the fact that you possess Life Totems an absolute secret. If the Judicator Families or the Eternal Kingdom finds out, they will kill you and immediately destroy your bodies to prevent resurrection."

Listening to Ye Xiu, Qing Luan accepted the large bundle of Life Totems, her heart filled with an indescribable shock and gratitude. She could only imagine how precious the Life Totems were, yet Ye Xiu was giving away so many at once just to protect them.

"Why not for Master and the others?" Qing Luan asked.

"I still haven’t figured out Yan Long’s true motives for dealing with the Judicator Families," Ye Xiu said. "Alright, you should go hide the Life Totems quickly."

"Okay, thank you!" Qing Luan bowed deeply and ran toward her home. At the same time, she understood Ye Xiu’s implication. Ye Xiu suspects that Yan Long, the Restorer Alliance, and those hermit lords are using the slogan of eliminating the Judicator Families as a cover for some other agenda.

Ye Xiu smoked a cigarette before leaving the Xuanse Community.

Yan Long and the others were still waiting at the community entrance. Seeing Ye Xiu emerge, Yan Long put on a sycophantic grin. "Divine Doctor Ye, about that... when will you treat my illness? Look at me, I’m severely poisoned and have less than a year to live. If I die, the only ones celebrating will be the Judicator Families!"

"No time!" Ye Xiu decisively got on his bicycle and pedaled away with Dong Puti.

Watching the bicycle’s receding silhouette, Yan Long slapped himself. If I’d known it would come to this, why did I go to such lengths to antagonize him? Now, his life was completely in Ye Xiu’s hands.

"Where are we going now?" Dong Puti asked, sitting on the rear seat with her arms around Ye Xiu’s waist.

"Just riding around," Ye Xiu replied casually.

Dong Puti wanted to tell him to stop riding around and head back to the Abandoned City. Her butt was already numb from the bicycle’s rear seat. She was now beginning to understand the saying, "Better to cry in a BMW than laugh on a bicycle." A bicycle’s rear seat is truly the nemesis of a girl’s butt. But she was the one who suggested going out for a ride, so even if the seat was leaving an imprint on her butt, she had to endure it.

「Half an hour later.」

The bicycle entered a residential community.

"What are we doing at the Tiansha Association?" Dong Puti asked.

The residences for the world’s martial artists had been arranged by Gong Jin in the name of Huang Quan, with the locations posted on the martial artist forum. Dong Puti therefore knew this community was Tiansha Association territory.

"Just dropping by," Ye Xiu replied perfunctorily.

Dong Puti was speechless.

As the bicycle moved through the community, the Tiansha Association members they encountered all had their eyes light up upon seeing Ye Xiu. However, none of them greeted him; they simply pointed in a certain direction. This left Dong Puti feeling impressed but confused. It seemed the people of the Tiansha Association were very familiar with Ye Xiu. But no one is greeting him. They’re all just pointing the way. What is going on?

She had no idea that every member of the Tiansha Association saw Ye Xiu as their savior, hoping he would help them get rid of Hachi.

Soon, the bicycle stopped in front of a villa’s courtyard.

"No, President, no! Please don’t come any closer," Kuroki Suzu’s voice drifted out from the villa.

"Tsk tsk, little darling, don’t run away..." That was Hachi’s sleazy voice.

Dong Puti was shocked, realizing Ye Xiu had come for Hachi.

"Let’s go, we’ll go take a look."

With a cold smile, Ye Xiu vaulted over the courtyard wall. Dong Puti hurriedly followed.

Inside the villa, Kuroki Suzu and Hachi were chasing each other around the dining table, like a game of hide-and-seek.

"President, please don’t do this! I’m your most loyal subordinate. You can’t treat me this way..." Kuroki Suzu cried out, dodging Hachi’s pursuit around the dining table.

"Serving me is the greatest honor of your life. Don’t resist. The more you resist, the more it makes me want you," Hachi said lewdly as he chased her.

Suddenly, Kuroki Suzu stopped dodging and stood still, a relieved smile spreading across her face.

Seeing this, Hachi laughed. "Little darling, you’ve finally come to your senses. That’s a good girl. I’ll be very gentle when I dote on you."

As he said this, he walked over to embrace her, but he suddenly noticed something was off about her gaze. He followed her line of sight and turned his head, only to see Ye Xiu standing at the entrance with a cold smile, Dong Puti beside him.

"Ye Xiu?" Hachi cried out and scrambled for the stairs.

He couldn’t beat Ye Xiu. Fleeing was his only option.

"How stupid can you be, coming to the Tiansha Association after you revived? Did you really think I wouldn’t come looking for you?"

Ye Xiu casually waved his hand, yanking Hachi, who had already reached the staircase, back toward him. He then slapped Hachi on the back of the head, sending him sprawling face-first onto the floor.
