Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1323 - 383: A Bond in the Shadows

"I am an orphan, with no parents. If anything happens, no one cares about me. Rest assured, I’m strong, a little resentful Qi won’t bother me, as long as you’re okay. Oh, why do I feel so cold all over?"

Qin Xiaochuan felt cold sweat pouring from his body, and Guangzi’s beautiful face before him was growing more blurred.

"You idiot, you make me so angry." Guangzi rolled his eyes, but when he thought of Qin Xiaochuan’s selfless act of absorbing the resentful Qi for him, Guangzi’s heart softened.

At this moment, Qin Xiaochuan staggered as he tried to stand up.

"Come back, what are you going to do?"

Guangzi touched himself, luckily his Divine Needle was still on him.

"I have to get away from you for a while, soon I’ll become like Huang Jun and them, can’t let myself hurt you."

Qin Xiaochuan felt his consciousness growing vague. The only thought in his mind now was to stay far away from Guangzi, not harm Guangzi.

Before he could finish talking, he suddenly felt numb in his back. Turning around, under the moonlight, Guangzi held a golden needle.

Guangzi squinted at him, raised his hand, and those golden needles flew over...

"Guangzi, why do you have needles, embroidery needles... You’re indeed Guangzi, even using embroidery needles is so elegant."

Before falling into unconsciousness, only this thought remained in Qin Xiaochuan’s mind, and then he fainted.

"Fool, without me, you’re doomed. If I were your parents, I wouldn’t want you, you’re so stupid. Who told you to overestimate yourself and absorb the resentful Qi for me?"

Guangzi kicked the unconscious Qin Xiaochuan on the ground.

Even he himself didn’t notice that while scolding, there was a trace of emotion in his eyes.

Turns out this Big Fool has hidden so many thoughts inside; usually, he looks cheerful.

No parents... Kind of pitiful, for that reason, he decided to help him just this once.

Guangzi thought for a moment, stripped off Qin Xiaochuan’s clothes, leaving only his underwear.

His eyes changed, the pupils gradually turned gold, and multiple acupoints on Qin Xiaochuan’s body were clearly visible to him.

With a few sounds from the Divine Needle in his hand, it pierced Qin Xiaochuan’s body.

The speed of his technique was no less impressive than Medicine Buddha Yun Sheng.

As the Divine Needle descended, wisps of green resentful Qi emerged from Qin Xiaochuan’s forehead.

Once the resentful Qi left the body, Qin Xiaochuan’s awful complexion slowly recovered.

But unlike earlier resentful Qi, the Qi now coming out of Qin Xiaochuan’s body wasn’t dispersing after being expelled.

They gathered together like living creatures, much larger than the resentful Qi Ye Lingyue found earlier on the townsfolk, about the size of a fist.

The resentful Qi perhaps sensed the power of Guangzi’s Divine Needle and tried to flee quickly.

"Want to escape!" Guangzi pressed the ball of resentful Qi under his hand. "Hmph, playing tricks, I’ll deal with you after I find Sister at dawn."

Guangzi put the ball of resentful Qi into the Life Qiankun Bag.

Looking at the sky, it was already around dawn.

He worried about Sister and others at the pier, hoping they weren’t in danger.

The situation in Yuliao Town was worse than he imagined.

Well, with that jerk around, Sister should be fine. Thinking of Di Shen’s coffin face, Guangzi pursed his lips. He didn’t even realize he felt a tiny bit of trust toward Di Shen.

The group of Ghost Children in the ancestral hall probably won’t let things rest, better not go out hastily.

Guangzi yawned, feeling somewhat exhausted from using Divine Power hastily in the Human Realm. He decided to sleep first and find Sister after dawn.

Through the long night, at Yuliao Town’s pier, Ye Lingyue and others had learned the entire story from the Merfolk King.

"So you’re saying Jiang Ce was poisoned because he was attacked by water plants, and other crew were attacked by Jiang Ce." Ye Lingyue mused.

"This cursed place really has a Water Ghost. I want to return to Shui City and report to my father, have him send troops to find that damned Water Ghost."

Luo Qianche turned pale mentioning the Water Ghost, already wanting to retreat. She refused to stay in Yuliao Town any longer, deciding to return to Shui City at dawn, despite the Merfolk King’s persuasion.

Ye Lingyue was used to Luo Qianche’s whims; she started using Cauldron Breath to heal Jiang Ce.

Jiang Ce’s resentful Qi was much harder to remove than the townsfolk’s and Ye Lingyue worked until dawn to calm Jiang Ce down.

But at dawn, an even more shocking news arrived.

"Ling Yue, something’s wrong. Last night there was an incident of townsfolk attacking townsfolk. Many townsfolk, attacked by those from the ancestral hall, were possessed by resentful Qi. According to some who escaped, the ones leading the attacks were Senior Sister Wan Yun and Huang Jun."

Di Shen entered the cabin, looking serious.

This shocking news left Ye Lingyue, Luo Qianche, and others at a loss.

Luo Qianche’s reaction was especially strong.

"Ye Lingyue, didn’t you say you cured those people? How could this happen again?"

Now half the town was possessed by those resentful Qi, even Luo Qianche couldn’t leave Yuliao Town anymore.

"Impossible, I clearly confirmed with Guangzi at the time, that the resentful Qi was cleared. What about Guangzi and Senior Brother Xiao Chuan? They were in the ancestral hall too."

Ye Lingyue regretted her decision, she shouldn’t have left them in the ancestral hall hastily.

She should’ve stayed vigilant near the patients all night.

Senior Sister Wan Yun and Huang Jun getting in trouble was also her responsibility.

"There’s been no news of Guangzi and Senior Brother Xiao Chuan yet, don’t blame yourself too much. According to Civilian Militia’s eyewitnesses, neither of them was seen among the Ghost Children. Senior Brother Xiao Chuan is always alert, probably he fled with Guangzi. Ling Yue, things can’t continue like this, I suspect resentful Qi will recur."

Di Shen had also encountered a few townsfolk while visiting the ancestral hall.

Those ordinary townsmen possessed by resentful Qi became incredibly strong, unafraid of swords or spears.

Di Shen couldn’t slaughter these powerless townsfolk, helplessly retreated to the pier.

The town’s situation was urgent, the Mayor and Civilian Militia had to gather unscathed townsfolk at the pier.

Yet the possessed Ghost Children seized the town’s granary and water source.

They set up checkpoints at the town’s entrance, such conditions couldn’t last long for other townsfolk.

Yuliao Town now seemed like a haunted place, Ghost Children roamed everywhere.

Just then, they heard Luo Qianche’s scream from the cabin.
