Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1170 - 230: Mysterious Ruins

"What a kid, he actually sensed it."

On the other end of the Mirror Sound Array, Yun Sheng and the Beiming couple were stunned by the sharp gaze of Di Shen.

The Mirror Sound Array became blurred, affected by the fluctuations of Di Shen’s Primordial Power.

Neither of them expected Di Shen to be so perceptive, even across such a great distance.

Since they were discovered, they couldn’t continue spying.

Ye Beiming coughed awkwardly, and the Mirror Sound Array disappeared.

"Haha, Fox Ye, it seems the waves behind the Yangtze River push the ones ahead, you’re the wave ahead that might die on the beach," Yun Sheng couldn’t resist teasing upon seeing Ye Beiming so deflated for the first time.

After learning from Ye Lingyue that Feng Xun and Wu Zhong had dual personalities, Yun Sheng had worried about whether Di Shen, who integrated their traits, might still have personality splits.

After all, she only had Ye Lingyue as her precious daughter and didn’t want her to find a "mental patient."

But now it seems, Di Shen has fused the qualities of Feng Xun and Wu Zhong, and most importantly, he’s deeply in love with her daughter, Ye Lingyue.

High in looks, strong in ability, and a potential stock, such a son-in-law is hard to find even with a lantern.

"Hmph, just a young brat, he can’t compare to me. If he wants to marry our daughter, he must at least reach the Divine Sovereign Level, otherwise, he won’t get my approval." Unlike Yun Sheng’s good impression of Di Shen, Ye Beiming seemed jealous of either his wife or his daughter, and he viewed Di Shen with cold disapproval, like a father-in-law finding faults in his son-in-law.

He always felt that he’d painstakingly raised his beloved daughter for so many years just to have her stolen away by a son-in-law, the ingrate.

"You better not scare away my son-in-law, I’ve already set my mind on him. But speaking of which, I asked you to inquire about the prospective son-in-law’s identity, have you found out? I don’t want my daughter to marry an unknown member of the Demon Clan."

Yun Sheng had learned from Ye Lingyue that Di Shen is the reincarnation of the previous Demon Ancestor.

Yun Sheng didn’t oppose the union of different races; she’s a modern-minded person and she and Ye Beiming were once from different races.

However, the Divine Race and Demon God are irreconcilable; she doesn’t wish for her daughter to experience the love tragedy of the past life again.

"I’ve already asked the Netherworld God to inquire, and the information matches my speculations. Each Demon Ancestor was born into the noble families of the Ancient Demon Clans, supported by these families behind the scenes. Di Shen should be no exception. I’ve also found out that the current two Great Demons belong to different Ancient Demon Clans. The Demon World hasn’t had a Demon Ancestor for years, and various Ancient Demon Clans are vying for the position. If they discover Di Shen’s existence now, there will be a huge stir, possibly affecting the Divine Realm as well." Ye Beiming felt a strong, pure Demon Energy when he first met Feng Xun.

In the Demon World, many traditional customs similar to the Divine Race are preserved, with Ancient Demon Clans being just like the Ancient Divine Race, boasting noble bloodlines, and receiving utmost respect in their own realms.

There is even a saying in the Divine Realm that the Ancient Demon Clans and Ancient Divine Race were originally one branch, only splitting due to differing beliefs.

But these are secrets of the Divine Realm, impossible for Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming, who only entered the realm a few hundred years ago as New Divine Race, to access.

Upon learning the possible true identity of Di Shen, Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming were filled with concern.

Yet they had no other option; all they could hope for was that neither Xi Jiuye from the Divine Realm nor the Ancient Demon Clans from the Demon World would quickly discover Ye Lingyue and Di Shen.

However, the wheel of fate always turns in unpredictable paths.

After removing the Mirror Sound Array, Di Shen in the Ancient Nine Provinces suddenly felt the monitored sensation disappear.

Di Shen frowned; he could sense a powerful force, yet the intent was not particularly hostile, leaving him wondering who might be observing from the shadows.

"Sixth Brother, did you hear what I just said? The demon beast on the statistics list is unpredictable. Recently, in Kai County, a hundred miles outside Wuling City, a demon beast appeared that reportedly killed ten Demon Hunters. We might list it as our primary target." Wuyue didn’t notice Di Shen’s loss of composure.

Like Di Shen, Wuyue hoped to leave Wuling City as soon as possible.

Besides meeting up with Sixth Sister-in-law and the others, Wuyue also wished to find the demon beast that killed her parents years ago, to avenge them, and to find a cure for her Dantian.

"If that’s the case, let’s depart immediately."

Di Shen promptly set off with Wuyue, heading to Kai County a hundred miles away.

Meanwhile, in the City Lord’s Mansion of Huangquan City, Ye Lingyue was trying to find ways to cure the Old City Lord.

Yuan Xing’s recovery and Yun Sheng’s treatment methods inspired Ye Lingyue greatly.

When Ye Lingyue brought Yuan Xing to the Old City Lord, whose face had always been expressionless, a crack appeared.

His lips quivered slightly, and tears rolled down his turbid eyes.

"Old City Lord, all these years, I misunderstood you."

Seeing the aged Old City Lord, Yuan Xing felt guilty and knelt before him.

Years ago, due to Su Mu’s death, Yuan Xing always believed the Old City Lord was cold and unfeeling, attributing Su Mu’s death to him, and therefore gave up the opportunity to become a Demon Hunter.

The Old City Lord, burdened by Su Mu’s death and his own mistakes leading to the death of over a dozen novices, was consumed by guilt, which led to his madness over the years.

Yuan Xing’s recovery and Su Mu’s letter also unknotted the Old City Lord’s heart.

Two men with decades of age difference were deeply moved.

Ye Lingyue guided the Old City Lord’s body with Cauldron Breath again, and by the next day, the Old City Lord’s consciousness gradually returned, able to recognize Huangquan City Lord and Si Xiaochun.

Seeing that the Old City Lord was recovering, Ye Lingyue seized the opportunity to inquire about events of the past, especially regarding the Qiulin Ruins.

Yun Sheng had specifically warned Ye Lingyue about how complicated the Qiulin Ruins were, considering the Old City Lord was already a Divine Power Realm expert, yet both he and Yuan Xing were pushed to the brink there.

Mentioning the Qiulin Ruins, both the Old City Lord and Yuan Xing showed lingering fear.

Despite the years passed, neither the Old City Lord nor Yuan Xing could forget the horrors of the Qiulin Ruins.
