Invincible Divine Doctor of the Beautiful Lady-Chapter 716 - 694: Evil Rises One Foot, Virtue Rises Ten

The Yin Master’s hair was disheveled, his complexion sinister and unsightly, his expression ferocious like a wild beast gone mad. He stared fixedly at the Ghost Doctor, his eyes bloodshot and terrifyingly ominous. He was filled with hatred and unwilling to accept defeat. Thirty years of scheming, thirty years of laying dormant, all for today’s supreme rule over the world—yet he hadn’t anticipated that all his plans would be thwarted by the Ghost Doctor.

"Very well, old ghost, you’ve hidden yourself deep enough, indeed very deep. After all, it turns out you are the biggest hypocrite," the Yin Master laughed bitterly in his rage.

The Ghost Doctor looked calmly at the Yin Master and said, "For the sake of the people of this world, what does this little hypocrisy matter? Yin Master, you have lost. Surrender now and I will grant you a swift end."

The Yin Master struggled to his feet, and the Gu Queen also wrestled herself up to stand by his side. The bodyguards, meanwhile, aimed their guns in this direction, but without orders, they didn’t know if they should shoot or not. The abilities of these individuals were shocking beyond belief, making them wonder, were these people still human?

"Hmph, old ghost, no matter how deeply you’ve hidden, what does it matter if you’ve broken my plan? My grand strategy has already been set in motion, and the tide is with me now. You can defeat me, but can you break my grand strategy? Haha, do you really think you have won? Trying to turn back the wheels of fate is simply a fool’s dream. You cannot change what is already set in stone. Turn around and look at these people; they are Donglin City’s most influential figures. Together, they can easily control Donglin City’s economic lifeline. Behind each of them is a great power. Now that they have all taken my Myriad Poison Heart-Devouring Pill, they are completely under my command, to be used by me, or else I will make their lives worse than death. With just one order from me, they will have no qualms about killing you all. Old ghost, if you have the guts, kill them all, haha, I want to see if Donglin City’s sky will change. By then, you will be the criminals of Donglin City, the criminals of Huaxia Country, and you will not escape death. Don’t you want to stop me? What will you use to do so?" The Yin Master sneered coldly, taking a desperate gamble with his last trump card.

Tangyu’s brows furrowed tightly, "Yin Master, at this point, why continue to struggle?"

"You whelp, what gives you the right to speak here?" The Yin Master gave him a cold glance.

The Ghost Doctor’s face remained serene, even revealing a slight smile as he said, "Elder Brother, a demon may rise ten feet high, but righteousness rises a hundred. I’ve told you before, you have already lost. Evil cannot suppress good; you are rejected by the heavens and the earth. Do you really believe that your poison is incurable?"

The Yin Master’s expression turned slightly grim, his eyes flickering darkly as he looked at the Ghost Doctor, "My poison is naturally invincible. The Myriad Poison Heart-Devouring Pill is my greatest masterpiece, the culmination of my life’s work, the best representation of my medical skills. Old ghost, do you really think you can cure my poison? Hmph, I can tell you very clearly to stop deluding yourselves. I used the Flame Demon Scorpion King as the medicinal base—there’s nothing in this world that can cure the poison of a mature pair of Flame Demon Scorpion Kings. Moreover, I combined it with over a thousand other deadly toxins. The poison of the Myriad Poison Heart-Devouring Pill can only be suppressed by me. You cannot cure it, nor can the old Holy Doctor, you cannot withstand me."

The Yin Master was brimming with confidence.

However, the Ghost Doctor laughed, "Indeed, under normal circumstances, I really have no way to cure your Myriad Poison Heart-Devouring Pill. But as I said, with all your calculations, you missed one. I have put so much effort into training my disciple and have given him full responsibility for this matter. Do you think I haven’t been strategizing? You’ve lurked for thirty years, and for these thirty years I’ve been planning to counter your conspiracy. Everything I’ve done was for today only. Thirty years ago, I had already prepared for all eventualities. Elder Brother, do you really think I was unguarded against you?"

The Dark Lord’s face finally changed somewhat, "You have a way to cure my poison?"

The Ghost Doctor said, "Of course, otherwise do you think it was that easy for you to obtain the Flame Demon Scorpion King? Did you not know that I gifted the Flame Demon Scorpion King to my disciple? Moreover, even my disciple was unaware that I had already tampered with that Flame Demon Scorpion King by planting a Tear of the Holy Eye within it. While you were refining the Myriad Poison Heart-Devouring Pill, you also catalyzed the Tear of the Holy Eye, which can neutralize and dilute the toxicity of the Flame Demon Poison King. So, do you still think I can’t cure the Myriad Poison Heart-Devouring Pill?"

"What—" The Dark Lord was not just surprised, like being struck hard, his body uncontrollably stepped back, glaring at the Ghost Doctor, "Impossible, how could it be possible? I was so careful during the refinement, how could there be any mistake. Hmph old ghost, you’re bluffing me. Using such a despicable trick, you think you can fool me? Ridiculous, truly ridiculous, I’ve seen through you, old ghost. In terms of cunning and schemes, I am not inferior to you. Dream on if you think such a tactic would work."

Tangyu, who was standing by, was surprised in his heart, Tear of the Holy Eye. Of course, he had heard of it, according to the Ancient Divine Doctor Scripture, it was an item even rarer than the Flame Demon Scorpion King, a heavenly spiritual treasure, belonging to the things of legend, he never expected it to truly exist, and also that his master had found it. The Tear of the Holy Eye could cure all poisons, no matter how deeply you were poisoned, a single Tear of the Holy Eye could completely neutralize it. The effect was just like the Detoxification Holy Pill, but the Tear of the Holy Eye was much more precious.

Moreover, his master had been keeping it from him, already having planted a Tear of the Holy Eye inside the Flame Demon Scorpion King long ago, which Tangyu honestly never knew.

"No wonder Master called me that day to talk about the Flame Demon Scorpion King, telling me to let the Dark Lord seize it if I couldn’t protect it. I didn’t understand Master’s intentions at the time, only now do I completely understand, it turns out Master had already set a trap in advance. Master is truly a man of foresight, everything within his control. This arrangement, indeed, is formidable." Tangyu was secretly licking his lips in admiration for his master in his heart. One had to admire, Ghost Doctor’s setup was indeed too formidable, just thinking about it was astounding.

Each and every strategy was simply outwitting the heavens.

"Elder Brother, at this point, why must you continue to deceive yourself? You should know that my words are true," the Ghost Doctor shook his head and said.

"Pah, your mouth is full of lies, yet you still have the nerve to pretend to be lofty here, claiming your words are true, when I see your words are all false. Hmph, if you have the ability, go and cure the poison now. They are my last bargaining chips, I still have the opportunity to turn defeat into victory, to pull back from the brink. My trump card, is it that easy for you to crush?" The Dark Lord still didn’t believe it, making his last struggle. How could he, the Dark Lord, concede so easily?

The Ghost Doctor looked at Tangyu and said, "Disciple, since the Dark Lord wants to give up hope, why don’t you go and cure their poison, to completely disillusion him?"

"Me?" Tangyu blinked, raising his eyebrows as he looked at the Ghost Doctor, "Master, how can I cure it?"

The Ghost Doctor split into a grin and said, "In this world, there is no poison you cannot cure, and since the Flame Demon Scorpion King resides within you, your blood is the cure-all Detoxification Elixir. Only your blood can counteract the Myriad Poison Heart-Devouring Pill. Give each of them a single drop, and the poison afflicting them will naturally be neutralized. Not more, not less. Go."

It was then that Tangyu felt relieved. Indeed, he was impervious to all poison, and his blood did possess some detoxifying effects—fighting poison with poison. However, he wasn’t so sure about the Myriad Poison Heart-Devouring Pill, but since his master had said so, it must be true. Without hesitation, Tangyu nodded and walked over to Xiao Yu and the others. Although he only knew a few of them, and some only by a circumstantial relationship, some he had never even spoken to before.

But at this moment, Tangyu was their lifesaver.

The first to be saved, naturally, was Xiao Yu.

"Brother Xiao Yu, I’m not entirely confident. Are you willing to give it a try?" Tangyu asked.

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "What’s there to be afraid of? What could be worse than the current situation? Come, Brother Tangyu, I trust you." Xiao Yu was indeed full of boldness and completely trusted Tangyu.

Tangyu nodded, cut his finger to squeeze out a bit of blood, and Xiao Yu caught it with his finger before putting it to his mouth to suck it up. Soon, he had completely ingested that single drop of blood.

After ingesting Tangyu’s blood, Xiao Yu’s body underwent changes, and everyone’s gaze fell upon him. Xiao Yu’s success was tied to everyone’s fate, naturally causing immense concern. The lord looked on with a deathly stare, clearly not wishing to see Xiao Yu’s poisoning cured. He gritted his teeth, looking as though he wanted to devour the Ghost Doctor and his companions.

Before long, Xiao Yu’s expression completely brightened, and he looked as good as new, his face gaining a healthy glow.

"Brother Tangyu, I’m better now, thank you," Xiao Yu said, a hint of a smile on his face as he nodded to Tangyu.

Tangyu checked his complexion and finally let out a sigh of relief, "Brother Xiao Yu, your poison has been cured. Please step aside for now."

Xiao Yu nodded and moved aside.

"Brother Tangyu, cure me next."

"Divine Doctor Tang, me first."

Immediately, the crowd surrounded him, each wanting to be cured first.

"What? How could this be? How is this possible? No—I won’t accept this, I cannot accept this." The lord appeared dazed, receiving another mental blow and soon coughing up blood, his entire demeanor turning haggard and worn. His body slumped, and he sat down on the ground. The queen tried to lift him, but she had no strength left, so she simply sat beside him. A once mighty lord and queen now looked utterly pale, a sight that could not help but evoke sighs.

The Ghost Doctor shook his head: "Had you known, why bother at all? Since ancient times, evil has never overcome righteousness; don’t you understand this? You thought you could wreak havoc upon the world without reproach?"

The lord had already descended into madness, unable to fight any longer.

The queen, for the sake of love and loyalty, followed the lord into the abyss.

The Ghost Doctor shook his head, "Had I known this would happen, why did it start at all? Honestly, I did not wish to kill you, but leaving you be would be a calamity. Elder brother, may you rest in peace; in your next life, may you be born with better fortune. Don’t blame your junior for being heartless." No sooner had the Ghost Doctor’s words fallen than he moved swiftly in front of a bodyguard, startling him. But by the time the bodyguard realized what happened, his gun was gone, and the Ghost Doctor had already returned to his original spot—all in the blink of an eye.

The bodyguard appeared as if someone had clutched his throat, his pupils dilating, looking as if he had seen a ghost—completely stunned and unable to speak.

The lord had entirely lost his will to fight; they had won, a thorough victory, with no power left to change their fate, only death awaiting him. All his denials amounted to nothing. Everything was about to turn to ash.
