Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend-Chapter 1018 - 78: Awkward Gift-Giving

Galaxy Fall cascaded downwards, splashing water onto the tombstone.

The bold words "Mu Shuang’s Tomb" were incredibly shocking.

Even amidst the intense sound of the water, Huang Jun’s words were still clearly audible.

"Have you really thought it through?"

Ye Lingyue did not seem too surprised by Huang Jun’s sudden request.

"I have come to understand; I should have understood long ago. Rather than being a worthless miscellaneous servant all my life, I should take a shot at this. I have only one request: if I unfortunately die in the competition, have my ashes sent back to my parents via Peace Hall. I’m their only son."

Huang Jun forced a carefree smile.

For all miscellaneous servants, the sect competition is their only chance to turn their lives around.

Yet even so, out of a hundred miscellaneous servants, there might not be a single person willing to sign up.

The reason is simple: because they are miscellaneous servants, the pressure they bear for signing up is far greater than that of the general Inner and Outer Sect disciples.

If it weren’t for Mu Shuang’s death, Huang Jun would never have taken this step.

"Aren’t you afraid I might also die in the competition? After all, I’m currently a thorn in the eyes of that group from Xuefeng."

Ye Lingyue laughed dryly.

"You won’t, because you are Ye Lingyue. Without you, I would have died during the assessment. Ling Yue, if it’s you, you can definitely break the fate of discrimination against us miscellaneous servants. Enough said; only a few months left until the sect competition, I need to focus on my cultivation. Otherwise, beneath the nine springs, I wouldn’t have the face to meet Mu Shuang."

Huang Jun waved his hand carefreely and left in big strides.

"You’ve heard it all. It’s a pity you missed someone who was genuinely good to you."

Standing before Mu Shuang’s tombstone, Ye Lingyue spoke, the wind carrying her voice far away.

With the Fishing Old Man involved, the disturbance outside the Refining Hall finally disappeared, but the outside reputation of Ye Lingyue remained poor.

The nickname "Wet Nurse" somehow spread.

Eventually, everyone in Lonely Moon Sea knew that Master Wuya’s Sixth Disciple had a fiancée a little over a decade older, but more people began to whisper behind the scenes, anticipating how a little miscellaneous servant would challenge the disciples from Xuefeng during the sect competition in a few months.

Many were eager for good drama, yet Ye Lingyue remained deaf to all the gossip. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

After Mu Shuang’s burial, Ye Lingyue continued as usual, going in and out of the Refining Hall.

Due to the theft incident, the Refining Hall was ostracized and its status plummeted among the various halls, with its affairs greatly diminished.

Manager Xiong didn’t pay much attention to this matter; instead, he granted Ye Lingyue and Huang Jun more free time, allowing them more time to cultivate.

As a result, Ye Lingyue had more opportunities to frequent Dugu Heaven.

If Ye Lingyue initially had some grievances about the Ten Layers of Heaven’s abnormal gravity in Dugu Heaven, she came to see that this gravity was actually beneficial for her cultivation, reversing her opinion.

Her body, due to the gravity of the Ten Layers of Heaven, consumed the Power of Heaven and Earth greatly, yet when absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power, the results were doubled for half the effort.

Within Dugu Heaven, Ye Lingyue, as usual, swept away the ground full of Parasol Leaves.

Sweeping leaves and climbing cliffs had become her daily routine.

Interestingly, there was only one Purple Leaf Parasol in Dugu Heaven, but regardless of how cleanly Ye Lingyue swept daily, when she returned the next day, the ground was inevitably covered in leaves; it was a wonder where the tree got so many leaves.

After sweeping the leaves, Ye Lingyue prepared to climb the cliff.

Just as she was about to start, the Three Realms Eagle sidled up to her mysteriously.

"You silly bird, come for food again?"

Ye Lingyue glanced at the Three Realms Eagle, which nodded its head feverishly.

Its eager look left Ye Lingyue puzzled, but she still took out a few Sand Ant Eggs and tossed them to the Three Realms Eagle.

The saying of a soft mouth after eating applies to Spiritual Beasts too.

Ye Lingyue and the Three Realms Eagle were perhaps not the best of friends initially, but once Ye Lingyue accidentally discovered that Zitang Su had originally sought Sand Ant Eggs to feed the Three Realms Eagle, she understood how to get along with the eagle.

In just a few days, the Three Realms Eagle and Ye Lingyue were as close as siblings.

After gobbling the Sand Ant Eggs from Ye Lingyue, the Three Realms Eagle didn’t immediately leave; instead, it gestured to its back, offering Ye Lingyue a ride with eagerness.

Ye Lingyue was skeptical, not knowing what the silly bird was after.

Seizing the moment when Zitang Su was away, Ye Lingyue swiftly climbed onto the back of the Three Realms Eagle, which flapped its wings and soared to the Purple Leaf Parasol.

On one of the branches of the Purple Leaf Parasol, the Three Realms Eagle pulled out a box.

When Ye Lingyue opened it, she found two pairs of protective gear inside.

Judging by the style, they were clearly wrist and knee protectors for women.

"Master, these items are worth having! They are at least Heavenly-grade Spiritual Artifacts; they might even be Heavenly-grade top-grade. These two pairs of protectors, the wrist ones are called Heavenly Bracelet, and the knee ones are called Earth Bracelet, both crafted from Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures."

Before Ye Lingyue could take a closer look, Cauldron Spirit couldn’t help but exclaim.

"These items, they’re yours? Three Realms Eagle, well, it seems you know how to stash things away too." Ye Lingyue curiously glanced at the Three Realms Eagle.

The Three Realms Eagle nodded fervently, then pushed the box towards Ye Lingyue further, feeling internally aggrieved but not showing it. It was an eagle that never covet petty gains, so it wouldn’t act without pride if not for its master.

"Are they gifts for me?"

Ye Lingyue asked again.

The Three Realms Eagle nodded even more joyously.

Skeptical, Ye Lingyue tried them on and discovered that both pairs of protectors fit perfectly, as if tailor-made for her.

"Well, I won’t be polite and will accept them, then?"

Despite feeling something was amiss, Ye Lingyue thought it would be foolish not to take the Spiritual Artifacts offered.

After donning the protectors, Ye Lingyue resumed climbing the cliff.

During the climb, Ye Lingyue realized something unusual; usually, she needed to expend a significant amount of Power of Heaven and Earth while climbing.

But with these two pairs of protectors, she noticed the consumption of Power of Heaven and Earth in her body significantly decreased, and a brief rest allowed it to quickly replenish.

With these protectors, the growth of her Power of Heaven and Earth would surely see greater heights.

Seeing Ye Lingyue vanish up the cliff quickly, Zitang Su emerged from below.

"Quite satisfactory indeed."

After watching for a long time, Zitang Su finally uttered two words, unsure if he was referring to the Heavenly-grade Spiritual Artifacts that were given away, or to the Three Realms Eagle’s performance just now.

The Three Realms Eagle stayed close by Zitang Su’s side, almost moved to tears.

"Master oh master, if you’re going to gift something, just do it already, why the need for such complications.

Choosing the best material, refining day and night, finally finishing, then pondering for days again, ultimately having me deliver it for you."

With such a master, the Three Realms Eagle indeed had a lot on its mind.
