Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1438: Chapter 498: Jealousy in the Air

Ye Lingyue noticed Di Shen’s odd behavior and was about to turn back.

Her body suddenly tilted forward, enveloped in the man’s presence, Ye Lingyue was encircled by Di Shen’s arms.

"Wife, don’t move."

Di Shen said, then pressed his lips gently to Ye Lingyue’s forehead, kissing softly.

Ye Lingyue couldn’t see Di Shen’s face, she could only feel his soft lips on her forehead, tickling.

This parting, I’m afraid, will be a long time until they meet again, so let him be.

Her heart softened, and Ye Lingyue no longer stopped Di Shen, letting him indulge freely.

Di Shen’s kiss was incredibly tender, yet his gaze beyond Ye Lingyue was like a Wolf King defending his territory to the death.

At the city gate, Third Young Master Jin led the Jin Family’s team out with much pomp.

Xi Jiuye’s spine stiffened immediately upon seeing Ye Lingyue held tightly in Di Shen’s embrace, his fists unknowingly clenched.

"Oh, today is truly a good day, everyone’s chosen today to depart."

Third Young Master Jin’s words elicited angry glares from the Huangquan City team.

This shameless dog, relying on the Jin Family’s influence.

Hearing the commotion behind, Ye Lingyue slightly struggled, Di Shen’s arms loosened a bit, letting Ye Lingyue’s head emerge from his embrace.

On her forehead still lingered Di Shen’s presence, and her hair was tousled by Di Shen.

She grumbled softly in complaint, yet Di Shen chuckled lightly, seeing her as his wife resembling a cat just awakened, her hair fluffy, utterly adorable.

He freed his other hand to ruffle her hair, only making it messier, causing Ye Lingyue to wrinkle her nose in annoyance, while he laughed smugly.

This scene pierced Xi Jiuye’s eyes like needles, stinging painfully.

His fists clenched tighter, knuckles cracking audibly.

Upon raising her head, Ye Lingyue met Xi Jiuye’s gaze.

Just one look, and Xi Jiuye felt a suffocating pressure, his chest tightening, as a soft touch came from beside him.

"Brother Xi."

Hong Mingyue called gently, Xi Jiuye initially wanted to shake off Hong Mingyue’s hand, but upon seeing Di Shen’s sovereign declaration-like actions, his heart stirred, allowing Hong Mingyue to hold him, appearing intimate.

Hong Mingyue was overjoyed, casting a taunting glance at Ye Lingyue.

Ye Lingyue’s gaze fell on Xi Jiuye and Hong Mingyue, moving away calmly, as if seeing something irrelevant.

Xi Jiuye’s heart sank, and as he passed by Di Shen and Ye Lingyue, his pace involuntarily slowed.

In the air, there was a faint scent of medicinal grass.

His eye corner caught sight of Ye Lingyue’s profile, having previously noted the Earth Evil Great Lord’s plain face and appearance, but her eyes were exceptional.

Yet now upon closer look, although her appearance was not striking, her face darkly hued, her skin was tender, especially her earlobes, beautifully shaped, rounded and crystal clear.

"At times like this, still having the mind for affection. But indeed, further delays might mean missed opportunities."

Third Young Master Jin gloated.

Ye Lingyue and Di Shen caused his failure to obtain Divine Power Skill, Old Master Jin furiously reprimanded Third Young Master Jin in a letter.

Third Young Master Jin had to make solemn vows to soothe his family, pledging to claim victory at the Jiu Provinces Hunting.

He knew if Di Shen was to enter the central area with his terrifying strength like him, it would be hindering and spoil his plans.

Therefore, he secretly bribed Master Chen to send the Wuling City team to the front lines to scout intelligence.

As for Ye Lingyue, a novice female city lord wishing to hunt demons, such a person could only do odd jobs in logistics.

"Jin-surnamed one, say it again and see what happens. Believe me, without your family name, you wouldn’t be worth a damn." Qin Xiaochuan angrily retorted, disdainful of the likes of Third Young Master Jin, who bullied with influence.

"Kid, what did you say? Who do you think you are, a parentless bastard, you have no right to carry my shoes with your skills."

Third Young Master Jin’s face filled with arrogance.

He’d thoroughly investigated the background of Huangquan City’s team.

Previously, Third Young Master Jin thought Huangquan City’s useless city lord was formidable, but his strength wasn’t high, definitely had some backing to assume the city lordship at such a young age.

Turned out to be merely a disciple from a small sect in the New Nine Provinces, lucked upon taking over when the previous Huangquan City Lord fled.

As for those under her, either same sect members or loosely affiliated folks from small groups, such types daring to meddle with him Jin Family.

"That’s not your doing either, all the protection from your forebearers."

Guangzi was also angered by Third Young Master Jin’s insults, the Big Fool wouldn’t let such a trash talk down to him.

"You despicable..." Third Young Master Jin wanted to curse more, but seeing Guangzi’s appearance, he was dumbstruck.

Woah, a Heavenly Immortal!

Third Young Master Jin just realized Huangquan City’s team had a stunning beauty.

Her gaze, skin, and slender figure, her whole being, was a top-grade masterpiece, even surpassing Hong Mingyue.

Third Young Master Jin’s expression flipped from anger to joy as if performing a magic trick.

"Beauty, what’s your name, why follow this group of worthless folks? Huangquan team isn’t suited for you. Why don’t you join the Jin Family’s team?"

He said, reaching out to touch Guangzi’s hand.

Guangzi shuddered in disgust, almost vomiting.

"Don’t touch Guangzi."

Ye Lingyue stopped Third Young Master Jin, unable to tolerate anyone bullying Guangzi.

"You vile woman, scram... Ow, Brother Xi, what are you doing?"

Third Young Master Jin raised his fist to strike Ye Lingyue but was restrained by Xi Jiuye, who frowned coldly, suspiciously, glancing at Guangzi.

Guangzi nervously hid behind Ye Lingyue.

"Third Young Master, fight not with women, let’s end this."

Xi Jiuye glanced at Ye Lingyue, ignoring Guangzi further.

"Everyone calm down, we are all Jiu Provinces Alliance members, just perform your duties. It’s not too early now, we should all be on our way."

The Wuling City Lord worried the hot-headed youngsters might brawl, had Zhang Quan hold them back.

"Wife, I’ll wait for you at the front lines."

Di Shen had confidence in his wife, she would eventually lead the Huangquan team into the core area and begin the hunting journey.

Before then, he must scout the road into the Demon World, find Jiunian’s whereabouts, so his wife has no worries.

The Wuling Team set off first, the sound of carriages rolling, as Di Shen turned back, Ye Lingyue remained standing at the city gate.

Their gazes unwittingly directed toward the horizon.

The Central Plains region’s mountains faded into hazy silhouettes, resembling a beautiful landscape painting, yet who knows how much danger lurked within that seemingly beautiful painting.
