Urban Supernatural Medical Saint

Upon hearing this, Fang Yu was speechless.

Black Wood Lotus, such a valuable thing, was dismissed as worthless.

However, it helped him understand how the Black Wood Lotus came to be. It turns out that it grew by absorbing the Spiritual Energy from that mysterious entrance.

"Daotian, what are we waiting for?" Fang Yu hurried him.

Chen Daotian acknowledged with an "Oh", and quickly ran over.

A sense of pride filled Fang Yu's heart.

He did not expect that this trip to the Lu Family would bring such great gains.

Relaxing his mind, he felt much lighter. Am I actually the reincarnation of the Dragon Emperor? It feels like a dream.

At that moment, Fang Yu noticed a hint of reluctance in Xie Daoyun's gaze, and just as he was about to meet her gaze, her eyes naturally shifted elsewhere.

"Your Majesty Dragon Emperor, Daoyun has something to say but is unsure if it's appropriate to say it," Xie Daoyun spoke softly.

"Please speak."

Xie Daoyun raised her eyes, looked at Fang Yu, and said, "Your Golden Dragon is much weaker than before... In terms of a Martial Artist's Cultivation Realm, your current cultivation would be of an Upper Class Yellow Rank Cultivator. If you encounter stronger opponents, I'm afraid you could easily have your Spiritual Energy stolen."

"Spiritual Energy stolen?" Fang Yu frowned.

"Some Cultivators, in order to enhance their cultivation, like to hunt down Low-Rank Cultivators and take their Spiritual Energy, assimilating it. This is what it means to have your Spiritual Energy stolen," Xie Daoyun explained.

Hearing this, a realization dawned upon Fang Yu.

So, the motive for murder under the Dark Forest Law... Those who want to kill, aim to steal Spiritual Energy. Those who do not want to kill, aim to prevent their own Spiritual Energy from being stolen.

So...

What was Lin Weifeng's purpose?

It's certain that Lin Weifeng intends to help me, otherwise, he wouldn't have taught me the Qi Concealing Technique.

"I'm back!"

Chen Daotian came running back, holding a bunch of Black Wood Lotus. This guy cared nothing for appearances, he even took off his clothes to gather Black Wood Lotus, showing his bare upper body.

Seeing the bunch of Black Wood Lotus, Fang Yu was astonished.

Initially, many people fought fiercely for those two halves of Black Wood Lotus.

Unexpectedly, now he had acquired a whole bunch.

Together with the Seven-Colored Lotus in his hands.

These are treasures.

Who knows what exactly is inside that entrance to nurture so much magical medicine.

Fang Yu couldn't help but look over.

Seeing this, Chen Daotian said, "Brother Yu, don't think about that hole anymore. I just went over there and felt extremely uncomfortable. It felt like if I entered, I would pass away."

Fang Yu nodded.

That entrance indeed looked bizarre; calm on the surface yet emitted a dangerous aura.

It's better to wait until we have sufficient strength before exploring it.

At that moment, Fang Yu turned to look at Xie Daoyun and said, "Cultivate well, and recover your memories soon."

The identity of the Dragon Emperor and past events still depend on her.

Xie Daoyun bowed, "Farewell, Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor."

Fang Yu and Chen Daotian then picked up the ashes and walked down the steps.

Disappearing into the night.

However…

Xie Daoyun did not enter the Underground Palace; instead, she stood transfixed under the night sky.

Stretching out her slender right hand, trying to touch the pristine moonlight, yet unable to reach it.

"The long night is coming, and from this moment I guard until death. Enduring solitude, enduring loneliness, neither contending nor vying, nor coveting wealth and glory, not envying splendid brightness, dedicating myself loyally... I devotion my life and honor, as it was a thousand years ago, tonight, and every night..."

After saying this, Xie Daoyun bowed her head and teared up.

...

The street lamps in the residential area still cast light on either side.

The descendants of the Lu Family in the tower had long been frightened into hiding.

The atmosphere in the Lu Family was now tense.

At the entrance of the Nine Layers Hall, Fang Yu and Chen Daotian slowly walked out.

"Brother Yu! That woman just now called you 'Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor'... It sounds very impressive," Chen Daotian said.

"What are you trying to say?"

"I heard everything. The descendants of the Lu Family say that the dragon is their totem. You are their real boss!"

"So what?"

"Hehe, actually what I mean is quite clear, Brother Yu, given our relationship, if you rise to great heights in the future, can you, perhaps, look after... your little brother?" Chen Daotian asked with a sly grin.

"Get lost."

Fang Yu scolded, "With your current weak strength, as narrow-minded as a frog at the bottom of a well who has just had his eyes opened, why don't you strive harder?"

"Yes! I will heed Brother Fang's orders!" Chen Daotian said with a playful grin, standing to attention.

Fang Yu gave him a glare before continuing forward.

In the residential area, no one dared to come out.

The night had not yet ended, and the grand Lu Family had turned into this state.

"Brother Fang, should we take care of the remaining people…" Chen Daotian made a throat-slitting gesture.

Fang Yu glared at him and said, "Not everyone is a bad person! And you still say I'm ruthless; you're even more ruthless!"

"Uh..."

"Let's go, the Lu Family should really reflect now." Fang Yu sighed.

As he reached the edge of the residential area—

One after another, the descendants of the Lu Family walked out of their houses.

They gathered on the street.

Fang Yu didn't look at them.

He walked towards the end of the street.

A crowd surged, following Fang Yu and Chen Daotian from fifty meters away.

"Brother Fang, they seem to be looking for a fight with us!" Chen Daotian said.

Hmm?

Fang Yu turned around.

Just as he turned—

"Lu Yu!"

From the crowd, an old man with a walking stick staggered forward.

Fang Yu remained silent, calmly watching him.

The elder raised his aged hand, tremblingly pointing at Fang Yu, tears streaming down as he said, "Heaven has eyes, you, you are the legitimate successor of the Lu Family! You are the totem that the Lu Family has worshipped for generations! Law Enforcement Hall is destroyed, Nine Layers Hall has fallen... A millennium of foundation must not be destroyed!"

His voice hoarse, he continued, "The Lu Family cannot be without a leader for a day... Only you, Lu Yu, are qualified to be the new Sect Leader!"

"So... you, you... you can't leave!"

On the tower, many people saw the Golden Dragon on Fang Yu's body.

The thoughts and beliefs passed down through generations made them realize how foolish and wrong the Lu Family had been in the past thirteen years!

Thump, thump...

The entire crowd knelt down; on the whole street, not a man or woman, young or old, remained standing.

In their minds, only the true Dragon Embodiment was qualified to be their Sect Leader.

"Sect Leader!"

Fang Yu's expression remained unchanging.

After all, Lu Tianyuan was to blame for the Lu Family reaching this day, manipulating everything behind the scenes—the Nine Layers Hall, Law Enforcement Hall, Elder Hall, and all the talented young Martial Artists, all under Lu Tianyuan's direct control.

Facing this, the people present could only be silently furious.

However—

Can the painful past be mended?

Fang Yu gently shook his head and said faintly, "I am not your Sect Leader... from thirteen years ago, there has been no Lu Yu in this world! Please remember my name. My name is: Fang Yu!"

After speaking, Fang Yu turned around, said indifferently, "Daotian, let's go."

"Mm."

Just as they were leaving—

On the street, the descendants of the Lu Family all collapsed... They finally realized, everything was wrong! Completely wrong!

How had the Lu Family treated Fang Yu in the past? Now, Fang Yu had only eliminated those with malicious intent, sparing the whole clan from massacre, they really couldn't have any other extravagant hopes, could they?

Some aging descendants of the Lu Family cried bitterly.

Those who knew they had wronged Fang Yu knelt on the spot, continuously repenting.

It's just a pity—

It was all too late.

Losing him, they realized their regret; was forgiveness not the greatest wish?

Looking back at the Lu Family, Fang Yu sighed lightly, from now on, the Lu Family and I have no more connections. Thirteen years later, repeating this statement, there was still no attachment.

In the future, there were still many secrets waiting for him to unearth.

Martial Arts, Cultivators, Dragon Emperor, Xie Daoyun…

…

Walking to the crossroad.

Fang Yu glanced at the urn in his hand and said, "It's been thirteen years, it's time to go see."

Chen Daotian knew what he meant and said, "Mm, I'll go with you."
