Invincible Divine Doctor of the Beautiful Lady-Chapter 837 - 811: Getting Started

The Great Dao is vast; how many seekers are there?

Through the ages, countless people have questioned whether there are Immortals in the world, but no one has ever reached an Immortal.

The Path of the Immortals is a vast expanse. Without becoming an Immortal, how can one achieve eternal life?

The pursuit of immortality has never ceased from ancient times to the present.

Tangyu seemed to vaguely see a path ahead, a path he had to take. This made his heart surge with excitement, and his eyes burned with fervor.

"Enough, let’s talk business. Those ethereal things, you can listen to them, but don’t take them too seriously. Being too obsessed may lead to deviation," Qian Shanxue said seriously, looking at everyone. "This time, I urgently called you all here because I lack manpower, and your strength can be of assistance. This time, we are going to deal with King Yinshan."

"King Yinshan—" Tangyu’s eyes instantly turned sharp. He hated King Yinshan the most, as the latter had orchestrated several incidents behind the scenes. Tangyu wished he could kill King Yinshan immediately.

Qian Shanxue glanced at Tangyu, knowing some of the enmities between him and King Yinshan, and continued, "King Yinshan’s strength is unfathomable. I have never fought him and do not understand how powerful he is, but I don’t have much confidence in defeating him. Therefore, we must be extremely cautious this time. If the situation turns unfavorable, I will immediately notify the seniors from Myriad Saints Valley to come to our aid. Of course, this time, we don’t necessarily have to fight to the death with King Yinshan."

"Although the Donglin City incident sparked anger within the Ancient Martial World, and orders have been given from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, preparing for an all-out war with the Ancient Martial World, the initial stages will still be small skirmishes. It won’t directly escalate into a large-scale battle. Such losses are unbearable for both sides. So, for now, unless there is a major change, we should avoid confronting King Yinshan head-on."

Tangyu gritted his teeth. He wanted to fight King Yinshan, but he knew his current strength was not enough to deal with him. So, he could only endure temporarily and follow Qian Shanxue’s arrangements.

He would avenge himself one day.

"King Yinshan is a general in the Dark World. There are nearly a hundred such generals in the Dark World. Moreover, the Yao Race is colluding with the Dark World, attempting to destroy our Ancient Martial World, with their intentions never wavering. Currently, the Dark World is still operating independently, engaging in guerrilla warfare against our Ancient Martial World. Once the Dark World gathers all its forces, it will signal the final battle."

"However, for now, there’s no need to worry. The Dark World has been in our world for over a decade, remaining deeply hidden until recently. True all-out war with the Ancient Martial World won’t happen overnight. These small skirmishes will likely continue for several more years, maybe even longer. This is, after all, a conflict between two worlds."

Tangyu sneered, feeling relieved that a full-scale war would not break out so soon. This gave him time to cultivate and elevate his strength to a higher level. That way, he could face future battles with composure, not wanting to be cannon fodder on the battlefield.

"I have received information that King Yinshan’s target this time is Liangshan County. According to the predictions, there is likely an Ancient Ruins hidden in Liangshan County. If found, it could be a great fortune, possibly containing many treasures. So, King Yinshan has set his sights on Liangshan County. Our mission is to stop them from obtaining the Ancient Ruins. Ideally, we would seize the ruins ourselves."

"Ancient Ruins." Tangyu was slightly surprised. "If there truly is a great fortune, how are we going to stop King Yinshan?"

Qian Shanxue said, "As of now, neither we nor King Yinshan know the exact location of the Ancient Ruins. Although some great powers can predict its existence, they can only give a vague idea. It is indicated that there might be an Ancient Ruins in Liangshan County. Whether we can find it depends on our luck and fate. Therefore, we are in Liangshan County, trying to find some clues."

Tangyu said, "So, we still don’t know the location of the Ancient Ruins. If we did, we wouldn’t be sitting here but heading straight there. But Senior Sister Qian, since it’s an Ancient Ruins, could there still be traces in Liangshan County? It’s been how many years, since the Ancient Ruins existed, probably before Liangshan County did."

Qian Shanxue shook her head. "Not necessarily. The prediction shows a phenomenon pointing directly to Liangshan County, and the clues should be there. That’s why I need you to help find these clues together. King Yinshan is also in Liangshan County, but we are currently maintaining a mutual understanding, each searching independently. Tangyu, don’t act rashly. Consider the bigger picture."

"I understand, Senior Sister Qian, I won’t act impulsively. Besides, I can’t defeat King Yinshan, and seeking revenge is impossible right now," said Tangyu, although still somewhat unwilling, had to suppress his feelings.

Qian Shanxue nodded. "Even though Ancient Ruins are from a long time ago, there should be some clues left behind. Moreover, the Ancient Ruins might manifest some anomalies. We need to determine the exact location of the Ancient Ruins. It’s also possible that when the Ancient Ruins manifest anomalies, someone recorded them. So, we should focus on local folklore in Liangshan County. Don’t overlook any small rumors."

"King Yinshan moves quickly. He has already controlled some local thugs in Liangshan County to gather information for him, then he collects the information to investigate one by one, which makes him very efficient. Therefore, we need to closely monitor King Yinshan and quickly conduct our investigation. If we can locate the Ancient Ruins first, that would be best."

"If not, then just monitor King Yinshan. Whatever moves he makes, we follow him directly. Getting the Ancient Ruins is not that easy. With these two plans, now that we have enough manpower, I’ll divide up the tasks."

Xing Shanxue took out a map and said, "This whole region belongs to Liangshan. In ancient times, it was all called Liangshan, covering a radius of a hundred miles. Our main focus for searching for clues is this area, with Liangshan County at the center within a fifty-mile radius. Fortunately, this area is sparsely populated, with only a dozen or so villages and Liangshan County within our search range. We will now split into five groups. Tangyu, you will be with Hu Jiaomei, and you are responsible for this area. Liang Youshan, you three will be in one group and will cover this area. The rest of us will cover the remaining areas. Any questions?"

"No problem." Everyone nodded.

"Alright, if there are no issues, let’s proceed as planned. I will be giving each of you a Communication Talisman shortly, so contact us immediately if anything arises. Also, although we have a tacit understanding with King Yinshan’s people for now and won’t make a move, we shouldn’t let our guard down. We won’t provoke them, but we also can’t let them walk all over us. So, be careful out there. If you sense any danger, seek help immediately."

"Got it, understood." Everyone nodded again.

Qian Shanxue said, "Alright then, let’s disperse and start our tasks."

Tonight, we won’t go to those villages; we will stay in Liangshan County. Tangyu and Hu Jiaomei are responsible for the North City District of Liangshan District. The two headed directly to the North City District.

"Where should we start?" Hu Yaomei asked.

Tangyu replied, "Let’s start by filling our stomachs."

Hu Jiaomei immediately gave a charming smile, placing one hand directly on Tangyu’s shoulder and said, "Like-minded indeed. We traveled all day without even a sip of water; I’m really hungry. Let’s go get some food. Or should I let you have some tofu first?"

As she spoke, Hu Yaomei thrust her ample chest towards Tangyu’s face, as if about to smother him.

Seeing those imposing assets, Tangyu felt a sense of danger, gulped discreetly, and said with a twist of his mouth, "Stop fooling around, let’s eat. Honestly, I’m not a fan of tofu."

"Pretender." Hu Jiaomei exposed Tangyu without mercy.

Hu Yaomei was merely teasing Tangyu and did not push further. The two of them casually found a roadside stall and sat down.

Such a captivating beauty sitting there naturally attracted many lustful glances from around, and plenty of envious and jealous looks fell on Tangyu as well.

A man in his thirties walked over, staring blankly at Hu Yaomei, completely stunned.

Tangyu smacked his lips and said, "Hey boss, are you taking our order?"

The man snapped out of his daze and, with an embarrassed smile, said to Tangyu, "Yes, of course, let’s order. Haha, brother, you are really lucky. What would you like to eat? Here’s the menu."

Tangyu casually glanced at the menu, quickly pointed out a few dishes, and sent the man away. Looking around, he noticed that almost everyone at the nearby tables had stopped eating and were all gazing their way. Shaking his head, Tangyu said, "Hu Yaomei, see what happens when I dine out with you? I bet sooner or later some fool will come over to make trouble."

Hu Yaomei gave a seductive smile with a hint of pride and said, "That just shows how charming I am, mesmerizing everyone. If they cause trouble, so be it. With you, a super unbeatable bodyguard here, I have nothing to fear. In fact, if they do, we can catch and question them about the situation."

"Come on, really? If there were women around, all the attention would be on me." Tangyu shamelessly boasted.

Hu Yaomei rolled her eyes at Tangyu, "Talking business, where do we go after dinner? We can’t just randomly ask people on the street, right?"

Tangyu thought for a moment and said, "Of course not. For inside information, the street thugs usually know the most. If it comes to that, we can check out some bars or similar places. But honestly, I think it might be more effective to ask those grandparents in the park. I have an idea: we could disguise ourselves as editors from Global Geography Magazine, saying we want to do a special feature on Liangshan and are looking for some unknown fascinating stories. I’m sure many would tell us what we need."
