Urban Super Medical Sage-Chapter 939 - 935 Great Pressure (1 more)

Divine Stele City, the city center.

The Martial Path God Stele stands tall right here.

Ordinarily, the area around the Divine Stele is shrouded in illusory mists, making it impossible to discern clearly, but at fixed intervals every few years, the Martial Path God Stele will manifest, marking the opening of the Divine Stele.

This phenomenon has persisted since ancient times, and over time, it has given rise to the Divine Stele Festival.

And today is the day the Divine Stele opens.

Early in the morning, the vast expanse of rocky ground around the Martial Path God Stele has already become a sea of people.

The rock plaza surrounding the Martial Path God Stele continues to expand every year, just to accommodate more Martial Cultivators who wish to witness and comprehend the magnificent scene of the Divine Stele in person.

To date, the entire Divine Stele Plaza can hold up to a billion Martial Cultivators, a truly terrifying number. After all, there are only several billion Martial Cultivators throughout the entire Buddha Domain.

Within the thronging crowd, some groups are notably eye-catching.

Lijian Sect is one of them.

When the Divine Stele opens, every force on the Divine Martial Continent that has achieved a Grade has the qualifications to comprehend the Divine Stele, of course, the higher the Grade, the closer they can get to the Divine Stele.

Thus, today, almost every large and small force within Buddha Domain that has entered the Grade has arrived.

Why does Lijian Sect draw such attention? Naturally, it’s because of Nangong Wu.

Nangong Wu’s visage truly stands out like a crane amongst chickens.

A beauty that’s almost on par with the likes of Heyue Nishang and Yun Xi, it would be odd if she didn’t draw attention.

Following beside Nangong Wu are Lijian Sect’s Sect Leader Zheng Yufa, Fourth Elder Yang Qingzhi, Zheng Jingyuan, and other Martial Cultivators of Lijian Sect. Each of them is extremely respectful toward Nangong Wu, looking more like servants by comparison.

No wonder, since ever since Su Chen visited Lijian Sect, Nangong Wu’s status within has soared immensely, practically akin to a Retired Emperor.

Although Nangong Wu herself did not become arrogant and overbearing due to this, everyone in Lijian Sect, including the Sect Leader, treated her with the utmost care and respect, revering her as if she were a deity.

Nangong Wu really lived up to expectations!!!

She has now reached the Ninth Level of the Ancestral King Realm.

The incredibly terrifying Martial Cultivator Su Chen has fully showcased her talent for martial arts cultivation.

Of course, she is not comparable to Su Chen, but if she compares herself, her progress is too vast and significant.

At this moment, Nangong Wu is expressionless and aloof, standing there like a unique landscape.

Yet for Zheng Jingyuan, Fourth Elder, and others behind her, the pressure is immense.

Lijian Sect is merely a small Fifth-Sixth Rank Force; on an occasion like today, with the presence of First Rank, Second Rank, Third Rank forces, and so on, deities gathered and powerhouses abound, they are under the spotlight, feeling massive pressure.

Yet, there’s nothing they can do about it. Sometimes, beauty is a double-edged sword.

Nangong Wu is indeed too beautiful.

Even veiling her face is pointless, for that kind of temperament would still attract far too many Martial Cultivators. So, she didn’t even bother covering up with a veil, and that led to the situation at hand.

Zheng Jingyuan takes a deep breath and wipes the sweat off his forehead.

Very nervous.

His eyes scan around, searching for the presence of the Supreme Heavenly Fire Sect and Su Chen.

If this continues, there will definitely be trouble.

The small Lijian Sect simply cannot protect a peerless beauty like Nangong Wu. Only by finding Su Chen and the Supreme Heavenly Fire Sect can they breathe a sigh of relief.

However, much to Zheng Jingyuan’s frustration, there has been no sign of Su Chen and the Supreme Heavenly Fire Sect until now!

About the turmoil Su Chen recently stirred up in Divine Stele City, neither Nangong Wu nor Zheng Jingyuan and the others knew.

On one hand, the Lijian Sect was too weak; even though they came to participate in today’s opening of the Divine Stele, they could only arrive just today. Coming a day earlier was not an option; it would have meant risking disputes and conflicts with others.

This was similar to the time when Wuo Tongtian took Su Chen and others to Divine Human City, wishing to appear only on the day of the Divine Human Test. Arriving even one day earlier could be dangerous.

On the other hand, Su Chen’s slaughter of Demon Walking Cloud and his instant defeat of Soul Qing happened half a month ago. No matter how sensational, after half a month, the fervor had somewhat subsided.

Because of this, Nangong Wu, Zheng Jingyuan, and others remained unaware of many things they should have known.

Although Nangong Wu remained expressionless, deep inside she felt profound helplessness and a trace of nervousness.

She had always been aware that her appearance could sometimes cause trouble.

But she never expected... it would come to this extent.

At this moment, almost all male Martial Cultivators in the entire Divine Stele Plaza were staring at her!

Among them were many powerful figures from the Ancestral King Realm, the Ninth Realm, and even the first and second levels of the Ancestral Saint Realm!!!

The kind of fearsome adversaries who could obliterate the entire Lijian Sect with a single move were watching her; to say she wasn’t nervous would be a lie.

But she had no choice but to persist.

She couldn’t just give up the chance to comprehend the Divine Stele, could she? Such opportunities were rare to come by.

Moreover, even if she wanted to leave now, it would be difficult; she could only grit her teeth and wait patiently.

Zheng Jingyuan was praying for Su Chen and the appearance of the Supreme Heavenly Fire Sect; Nangong Wu felt the same. She was proud, but not a fool; under the current circumstances, she and the Lijian Sect were nothing more than ants among ants. Only the appearance of Su Chen could change that.

The next second.

Suddenly.

Sometimes, whatever you worry about, comes knocking!

From afar, a young man with a smile like a spring breeze was walking towards Nangong Wu.

The man was not old, just over three hundred years of age, and in the Buddha Domain, this was considered extremely young.

In his hand was a Short Sword, which was a genuine Desolate Grade Weapon.

His eyes were slightly narrowed, not very large, but extremely expressive, as if two stars were embedded in the depths of his eyes.

The youth’s aura was very restrained, he even seemed like an ordinary person to the naked eye.

But intuition told her that he was very strong.

Standing behind Nangong Wu, Zheng Yufa, Yang Qingzhi, and others also wore grave expressions. Just like Nangong Wu’s intuition, they also vaguely sensed that the newcomer was a terrifying and daunting presence.

At the same time, whispers from other Martial Cultivators in the Divine Stele Plaza reached the ears of Nangong Wu, Zheng Yufa, Yang Qingzhi, and others:

"Ye Zhihen."

"It’s him!"

"The rumors have always said Ye Zhihen is a prodigal son, with a fondness for women; it seems they are true."

"That woman is fortunate, being favored by Ye Zhihen is enough to prove her excellence."

"Indeed a beauty capable of toppling cities and nations, a pity, she is too weak, and the Sect behind her is too weak."

"The first among the young generation of the Mysterious Cloud Sect, truly has an extraordinary demeanor."

......

The comer was none other than Ye Zhihen!!!
