Rural Strongest Little Divine Doctor-Chapter 1770: Diverging Opinions

Based on the content of the phone call, Luo Yang could determine that The Tenth Mu Tan and the mysterious woman were associated.

However, there was one thing he couldn’t figure out: how the mysterious woman dared to disobey The Tenth Mu Tan’s orders.

It’s like Lord Bao ordering Wugu to do something; under normal circumstances, Wugu wouldn’t dare defy Lord Bao’s command.

Then he heard The Tenth Mu Tan angrily say, "Who exactly are you people? I don’t need you meddling in my affairs!"

The mysterious woman replied, "Ten Apostles, what we’re doing is, to some extent, helping you, but it’s not exactly helping you; it’s to welcome the arrival of an ancient Great Power."

Upon hearing about the ancient Great Power again, Luo Yang was even more puzzled.

The Tenth Mu Tan wanted to find nine brothers, yet the mysterious woman’s group wanted to welcome an ancient Great Power, which seemed somewhat conflicting.

Judging from the situation, it seemed The Tenth Mu Tan and the mysterious woman were not acquainted.

The mysterious woman paused and continued, "Ten Envoys, we are helping you, please don’t doubt us."

Then, what she said was obviously directed at Luo Yang.

"If you want your friends to live, you must do as I say. They are unharmed, but if you dare disobey me, they will disappear one by one!" 008 said.

"Brother Mu Tan, please ask her to release my friends." Luo Yang said.

After listening to the conversation between The Tenth Mu Tan and 008, Luo Yang concluded: the mysterious woman might not directly take orders from The Tenth Mu Tan, but she must definitely consider what The Tenth Mu Tan says.

The Tenth Mu Tan thought for a moment and said, "Release his friends!"

There was silence again on the other end of the phone.

From this, it was clear Luo Yang guessed correctly.

Luo Yang signaled to The Tenth Mu Tan to continue pressuring the mysterious woman.

The Tenth Mu Tan also knew that if he refused, Luo Yang would confront him.

In a situation where he couldn’t take down Luo Yang, The Tenth Mu Tan obviously didn’t want to go down together with him.

"Release his friends!" The Tenth Mu Tan commanded again.

The phone remained silent.

Just as Luo Yang thought negotiations had failed, he heard 008 say, "Ten Envoys, since you’ve asked, we can release his friends, but we must keep one or two. If he doesn’t help you find the nine brothers, then we’ll make his friends suffer."

The Tenth Mu Tan said, "Do it that way!"

After speaking, the mysterious woman hung up first.

Luo Yang angrily said, "Brother Mu Tan, what do you mean by this? Is this a show you’re putting on?"

The Tenth Mu Tan justified, "Didn’t you realize I can’t command her? This outcome is the best we can get. Help me find the nine brothers, and your friends won’t come to harm."

Arguing now is pointless; we’ll see how many come back first.

Luo Yang held back his anger and said, "Don’t worry, I’ll definitely help you find the nine brothers. When will my friends return?"

To this question, The Tenth Mu Tan vaguely said, "They should be back soon."

There’s no use calling 008 again, might as well wait in the warehouse.

About forty minutes later, he heard a car approaching, then driving away.

Luo Yang went outside and saw Aunt Thirteen, Hua XiYi, Bai Hui, and the three Gu sisters. Each had their hands and feet tightly chained and their eyes blindfolded.

Having escaped death, those who returned were overjoyed.

Luo Yang personally unchained them, but upon recalling, he noticed Sister Shi Tai and Hua’er were missing.

"Sister Shi Tai and Hua’er?" Luo Yang glanced around.

The fright in everyone’s eyes showed they hadn’t fully calmed down yet.

Aunt Thirteen’s face looked displeased, and she said coldly, "That woman said Shi Tai is your master and had to stay."

Most people were released, which was a good thing.

Since Sister Shi Tai and Hua’er were still in 008’s hands, as long as The Tenth Mu Tan hadn’t found the nine brothers, the two of them were safe.

Everyone had learned that the mysterious man following Luo Yang was The Tenth Mu Tan, and each showed unease.

Especially Aunt Thirteen, as Luo Yang had once asked her to take him and The Tenth Mu Tan to the Shi Sheng Palace headquarters.

Facing The Tenth Mu Tan now, Aunt Thirteen looked paler.

"Now that the people have been released, you should fulfill your promise!" The Tenth Mu Tan said.

"Brother Mu Tan, don’t rush. I still have to go back and compete in the martial arts tournament, and after it’s over, I’ll go to the Shi Sheng Palace headquarters with you." Luo Yang said.

Hearing this, Aunt Thirteen’s eyes were filled with gratitude.

But The Tenth Mu Tan was unwilling.

"I’ve helped you, now it’s your turn to help me!" The Tenth Mu Tan said angrily.

"Brother Mu Tan, you said you’ve helped me. Is it not enough that I believe you? I will help you, can’t it wait a few days?" Luo Yang reasoned.

"If you’re not going, let her take me!" The Tenth Mu Tan pointed at Aunt Thirteen.

They hadn’t known Aunt Thirteen for just a day or two, but had never seen her so scared.

She was trembling, her face full of panic.

Aunt Thirteen looked at Luo Yang with pleading eyes; aside from him, no one present could help her.

"Brother Mu Tan, don’t push people too hard. I promised to help you find the nine brothers, and I will definitely do it." Luo Yang said.

"Then let’s go to Shi Sheng Palace right now!" The Tenth Mu Tan said coldly.

Usually unafraid of anything, Hua XiYi was now careful with her words.

"Hehe, my brother keeps his word, please trust him." Hua XiYi said.

"It’s not your turn to speak!" The Tenth Mu Tan glared at Hua XiYi.

Had it been anyone else, Hua XiYi would have retaliated sharply.

Having clashed with The Tenth Mu Tan, Hua XiYi knew she was no match and dared not confront him.

Luo Yang said, "Brother Mu Tan, after I finish the tournament, I’ll definitely go to the Shi Sheng Palace headquarters with you. Tomorrow night is the competition, after that, we can leave either the day after tomorrow or the following day."

The sparks in The Tenth Mu Tan’s eyes flickered brightly as he said angrily, "If you’re not going, I’m going! She will take me!"

Still pointing at Aunt Thirteen.

In fact, the Jiuyang Hall where Hua XiYi was from should also know some secrets about Mu Tan.

Now that The Tenth Mu Tan only asked to go to Shi Sheng Palace, Hua XiYi was relieved.

"Brother Mu Tan, think about it, I still have friends in your friend’s hands. Don’t you think I want to rescue my friends? I must participate in the tournament against the Japanese Ninja. Afterward, I’ll go with you." Luo Yang said seriously.

"Go compete in your tournament, I’ll first go to the Shi Sheng Palace headquarters! She can lead the way! If she plays tricks, don’t blame me for being ruthless!" The Tenth Mu Tan was unwilling to give in.

At this point, Luo Yang could only respond firmly.

The Tenth Mu Tan was wary of Luo Yang, knowing that accompanied by the power of Blood Devil, Luo Yang could not only intimidate but even potentially defeat him.

Last time at the performance arena, supported by the Golden Light in Luo Yang’s mind, The Tenth Mu Tan was nearly dealt with by Blood Devil.

Currently, Luo Yang couldn’t deal with The Tenth Mu Tan, mainly because he didn’t know how the Golden Light in his mind came to be and couldn’t control it.

Once he could control it freely, that would be the real beginning of trouble for The Tenth Mu Tan.
