Medical and Martial God

Chapter 619: Escape to Heaven

Just as Ye Xiu was helping the people from Medicine King Valley awaken the Second Stage of their Life Totems, Tu La was having breakfast.

"Oh no!" Tu La suddenly slapped the table.

"What’s with all the fuss? Where are your manners?" his wife—Kristina’s mother, Stephanie—scolded him.

In the Golden Family, women held a higher status than men because the Golden Totem was only passed down to women. Stephanie was the inheritor of the Golden Totem. Tu La was utterly under his wife’s thumb, a complete henpecked husband.

Startled by his wife’s scolding, Tu La flinched and said, "I just forgot something important. When Kristina called earlier, she mentioned that Huang Quan had gravely wounded Yue Longxuan."

Ever since his return, he had been so preoccupied with mulling over why Qin Qing had so readily agreed to his terms that he had completely forgotten about Huang Quan killing Yue Longxuan.

"Oh?" Stephanie raised an eyebrow. "I’ve heard of this Huang Quan. Rumor has it he has dominated the globe with his power for a decade. I didn’t expect him to be this strong. Could he be with the Restorer Alliance?"

Tu La said, "According to Kristina, it was Yue Longxuan who snatched Huang Quan’s Battle Soul Blade and provoked him, bringing disaster upon himself. Although Kristina didn’t say so, I suspect Huang Quan isn’t with the Restorer Alliance. His behavior over the past ten years doesn’t align with the principles the Restorer Alliance has always followed."

After pondering for a moment, Stephanie said, "In an era of depleted Spiritual Energy, being able to kill Yue Longxuan means Huang Quan must be a Seventh Realm War God. With such a murderous thug in Nanjing, Kristina is in danger."

Tu La asked for instructions, "Shall I inform the King of the Eternal Kingdom and have him send people to Nanjing to protect Kristina?"

Stephanie nodded. "Do it."

From beginning to end, neither of them took Huang Quan seriously.

「」

Ye Xiu was busy until dawn, only finishing after he had helped all the Second Realm War Gods from Medicine King Valley awaken the Second Stage of their Life Totems. Then, he passed on the Cultivation Techniques for reaching the Fourth Realm War God to Baishan Jun and the others. Ye Xiu would need the Medicine King Valley’s strength for the future assault on the Eternal Kingdom, so the more powerful they became, the better.

After Baishan Jun and the others left, Ye Xiu was about to go back to his room to catch up on sleep when he suddenly received a message from Leng Yue through the Stone Mirror. "Young Master, the young madam has thought of a way to identify the person who hypnotized Long Tianba."

"Oh?" Ye Xiu’s eyes lit up. "What way?"

Leng Yue replied, "Bring Long Tianba to Biluo Island and hand him over to me and the young madam. Once the person who hypnotized him finds out, they will surely come looking for him."

Damn! Qin Qing really is my ever-capable wife! How did I not think of such a brilliant plan myself?

Moreover, he needed this time to rebuild his cultivation using the Martial Prowess he had absorbed from Yue Longxuan, so he had no time to deal with the Ye and Long families. Furthermore, Nanjing would surely be in chaos during the Mist Chant Martial Meeting, and he wouldn’t have the spare time to protect them.

I might as well send them all to Biluo Island!

"That’s what we’ll do!" Ye Xiu replied.

Just as he put away the Stone Mirror, he saw Kristina walk in. She stared at Ye Xiu with utter disdain.

"Don’t get too cocky, Ye Xiu. Don’t forget, Qin Qing and Leng Yue are still in my hands," she hissed. As she spoke, she took out a mobile phone unique to the Eternal Kingdom and waved it, as if to say that if Ye Xiu dared to cross her, she would make a call and have someone kill Qin Qing and Leng Yue.

"Actually, in my heart, Qin Qing and Leng Yue aren’t the most important," Ye Xiu said.

Kristina’s eyes brightened. "Then who is the most important person to you?"

"The Ye and Long families!" Ye Xiu said, seizing the opportunity. "You can’t possibly understand the depth of my hatred for them. My sole reason for living is to torment them."

Upon hearing this, Kristina’s mind started racing. If I send the Ye and Long family members to Biluo Island as well, Ye Xiu will have no choice but to grovel before me and lick my heels. Yes! That’s what I’ll do!

Seeing the look in Kristina’s eyes, Ye Xiu knew the girl had taken the bait, so he played along. "I didn’t sleep at all last night. I’m dead tired, so I’m going back to my room to catch some sleep."

"Go on, go on!" Kristina said happily. Once Ye Xiu is asleep, it will be the perfect opportunity to send the Ye and Long family members away!

「」

The members of the Ye and Long families were pulling weeds.

Yes, pulling weeds.

The preparatory work on the five-hundred-meter stretch of road they were responsible for was complete. The two mountains had been tunneled through, and the roadbed had been leveled and compacted. Now, all that was left was to wait for the professionals to arrive and pave it. With nothing else to do, Liu Dakang and the other overseers used whips to force them to pull weeds along the roadside.

"Which ones are from the Ye and Long families?"

At that moment, two middle-aged men from the Eternal Kingdom approached. They had been lurking in the Wanjing Mountains, and Kristina had contacted them after she got her cell phone.

"They all are!" Liu Dakang pointed at the thousand or so people pulling weeds and asked, "Who are you? What do you want with them?"

The two middle-aged men suddenly vanished. In an instant, Liu Dakang and all the other overseers were knocked unconscious.

This scene left the members of the Ye and Long families dumbfounded.

"We are from the Eternal Kingdom," one of the middle-aged men said. "On the order of Princess Kristina, we are to escort you to the Eternal Kingdom."

The members of the Ye and Long families looked at each other in dismay.

"We dare not leave," Ye Tianming said. "Besides, you wouldn’t be able to get us out of here. Ye Xiu would probably intercept us before we even reached the airport."

Indeed, the Ye and Long families were so terrified of Ye Xiu that they no longer dared to even think about escaping.

"The princess said that Ye Xiu didn’t sleep all night and is currently catching up on his sleep," the middle-aged man explained.

Ye Tianming and the head of the Long Family exchanged a look. With Ye Xiu asleep, this was indeed a perfect opportunity for them to escape. And even if they were caught, Ye Xiu wouldn’t kill them.

"Okay, we’ll go with you," the head of the Long Family said, steeling his resolve.

The two middle-aged men nodded and immediately took the lead, breaking into a run. The Ye and Long families followed closely. Those whose Martial Prowess had been sealed couldn’t keep up, so they were carried by those who were unaffected. The group moved with lightning speed.

When they arrived at the airport, successfully boarded the plane, and flew out of Nanjing’s airspace, the members of the Ye and Long families finally let out a collective sigh of relief, and cheers erupted all around.

"Finally! We’ve finally escaped to safety! We’ve escaped from Ye Xiu’s clutches..." Ye Tianming was moved to tears.

"We’ll be back," the head of the Long Family added, his happiness tinged with malice. "And when we return, it will be the day Ye Xiu dies."

Eighteen hours later, the plane arrived at Tamwood City airport. After transferring, everyone was hooded and had their sleep acupoints pressed.

Three and a half hours later, the plane landed at the Biluo Island airport.

Xueman and An Bai had been waiting for a long time.

After the Ye and Long family members disembarked, Xueman announced, "The princess has arranged for you to stay in Sanyan Village, where Qin Qing and Leng Yue used to live."

Qin Qing?

The members of the Ye and Long families were stunned.

"Is Qin Qing also on Biluo Island?" Ye Tianming asked.
