Sage of Humanity-Chapter 706 - 704: Fellow Daoist Looks Somewhat Familiar

The blue light circled back and landed in his hand, and Wu Xie seemed to transform into an unsheathed longsword.

The light of the blade and the sword edge intertwined. The two figures touched and immediately separated. Lu Ye's figure drifted back dozens of feet, blood sprinkling the sky. On his shoulder, Amber stood majestic, their blood Qi mingling.

On the other side, Wu Xie also floated back dozens of feet, his black clothes quickly soaked red with blood. He stared deeply at Lu Ye, as if engraving Lu Ye's figure into the depths of his soul, then glared fiercely in the direction of the hut in Medicine Valley and gritted his teeth, "You wench, well done!"

Having said that, he turned and walked away!

Suddenly encountering such a formidable Cloud River Level 6 was one thing, but the key was that he didn't know when he had been poisoned!

He had not noticed it before, but it was only after fighting Lu Ye that he realized something was wrong with himself.

In this world, the only one capable of poisoning him unnoticed, apart from Little Miracle Healer, who else could it be? He pondered but couldn't figure out when he had fallen victim.

He was deeply terrified by Little Miracle Healer's horrifying methods, thankful that this woman never killed people, and the poison she used wasn't the kind that could take someone's life; otherwise, he might have already been dead.

"Ran... Ran away?"

The cultivators below were dumbstruck, as if in a dream.

When Wu Xie burst out of Medicine Valley, these cultivators seeking medical help thought calamity was imminent. They had dared to follow Lu Ye in breaking through the Sky Ravine Sect's defenses because there were no notable strong figures present and Lu Ye was leading.

But facing a renowned strong figure like Wu Xie, they had no courage to initiate a fight.

They thought Lu Ye was doomed to die and they would be eradicated, but the situation changed drastically.

They didn't know Wu Xie had been poisoned and thought it was Lu Ye who had injured the opponent and driven him away. For a moment, they were utterly amazed by Lu Ye.

The cultivators seeking medical help were shocked, and the remnants of the Sky Ravine Sect were even more shocked, witnessing their ninth elder retreat rapidly. They dared not linger and scattered in all directions.

No one pursued them, and they soon disappeared completely.

Only then did Lu Ye descend from mid-air, his eyes flickering with contemplative expression.

Although he had been practicing the Tyrannical Saber Technique during this period, strictly speaking, this was the second opponent he had faced using the Tyrannical Saber Technique.

Indeed, the feeling of arduous practice and facing an enemy was different. Utilizing the Tyrannical Saber Technique in such life-and-death battles gave him a deeper understanding and insight into the technique, significantly fostering his cultivation in this technique.

The benefits were endless.

Although he didn't know that Wu Xie retreated because he was poisoned and apprehensive, the opponent's parting words made him realize that it must have been something the master of Medicine Valley did to threaten him.

If the fight had continued, Lu Ye was not afraid. Although he might not be a match for Wu Xie in the short term, as long as he endured for a while, he was confident he could overcome him.

After all, both the power of the Bloodstain Spirit Runes and the Beast Transformation Secret Technique required time to build up and gradually unleash their power.

And once the battle reached a critical point that forced him to use the Beast Transformation Secret Technique, Wu Xie would undoubtedly be doomed.

The foundations of Cloud River Level 9 cultivators in this world were indeed difficult to imagine. This was just the ninth elder, so how strong must those ranked above him be?

"Brother Ye, are you alright?" Zhuang Bufan asked with concern, as Lu Ye's current appearance was somewhat pitiful, his clothes tattered, and his body covered in numerous wounds, his flesh in tatters.

Lu Ye shook his head: "It's just a minor injury."

Zhuang Bufan was very admiring: "Brother Ye is truly impressive."

He had always thought Lu Ye was a disciple from a top big sect, but after witnessing that astonishing saber strike, he suddenly realized.

This Ye Liu, wasn't he the Young Master Ye Liu of the Tyrannical Saber Villa?

That fierce and unparalleled saber strike was undoubtedly the Tyrannical Saber Technique.

He had heard about Tyrannical Saber Villa, though his knowledge was not extensive.

A medicinally tender attendant, about thirteen or fourteen years old with rosy lips and white teeth, floated from the depths of Medicine Valley, bowed respectfully, and said clearly: "Honored cultivators, my master invites you."

Lu Ye returned the gesture: "I had no choice but to break the rules of Medicine Valley, I hope the master forgives me."

The attendant smiled and shook their head, indicating there was no need to worry.

The brazen arrival of the Sky Ravine Sect had long displeased these attendants, but being weak, they couldn't change much. Now with Lu Ye's help in driving away Wu Xie and killing a group of Sky Ravine Sect cultivators, the attendants were more grateful than ever and would hardly fuss about the rules.

"Please, go ahead," gestured one of the cultivators seeking medical help.

The others also voiced their agreement.

Strong figures, no matter where, were respected, and the Soaring Dragon World was no exception. Having witnessed the battle between Lu Ye and Wu Xie, who would underestimate him for his age and cultivation?

Besides, without Lu Ye, these people might still be blocked at the valley entrance, unable to enter.

It was only natural for Lu Ye to go first now.

Lu Ye did not refuse; supporting the gasping Zhuang Bufan and leading Yiyi, who was holding Ye Liuli, he walked towards the valley, followed closely by the others.

Soon, the entrance of the valley was empty, only the bloodstains and bodies on the ground evidence of the fierce battle that had taken place.

Under the guidance of the attendant, the group soon arrived in front of the hut at the center of Medicine Valley.

The attendant bowed: "Master, I've brought the people."

Lu Ye clasped his fists and said loudly, "Ye Liu from Fengzhou, accompanied by my sister Ye Liuli and friend Zhuang Bufan, begs the Little Miracle Healer for help!"

"A doctor's duty is to treat ailments and eliminate disasters; it's merely my responsibility. Please, come in," a gentle voice came from inside the thatched cottage, carrying a magical power that made one feel as if basking in the spring breeze. Merely hearing this voice lightened one's body and spirit.

Lu Ye and Yiyi, however, both showed surprised expressions at the same time, exchanging glances that revealed the astonishment in each other's eyes.

Frowning slightly, Lu Ye said, "I apologize for the intrusion."

With that, he stepped forward and walked in.

The cottage was small, filled with the complex mixed scents of various herbs. A plump figure immediately came into view; her back was turned to Lu Ye, her face not visible, wearing a light green long dress, her black hair cascading down to her waist.

The woman appeared to be grinding herbs, meticulously and repetitively.

This woman was undoubtedly the owner of Medicine Valley, the Little Miracle Healer.

Lu Ye stared fixedly at her back, Yiyi gazed in stunned silence.

After a good while, Yiyi turned her head to look at Lu Ye, her mouth moved slightly, though she made no sound.

But Lu Ye knew what she meant and slowly shook his head.

Then, under the extremely shocked gaze of Zhuang Bufan, Lu Ye took a step forward, walked up, and stood in front of the Little Miracle Healer, his gaze unwaveringly fixed on her face.

Upon seeing her face clearly, Lu Ye's pupils contracted, and his thumb subconsciously rubbed the Boulder Mountain Saber at his waist.

"Brother, what are you doing?" Zhuang Bufan internally shouted, wishing he could rush forward to pull Lu Ye back if it weren't for his current inability to move.

"We came to seek medical help, and here you are running up to stare at her face, what kind of behavior is that!"

In the entire Soaring Dragon World, the Little Miracle Healer's connections and prestige are top-notch, no one dares to underestimate her because she is a woman, and even if she truly is as beautiful as a flower, we shouldn't be this disrespectful, right? ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Moreover, he felt that Lu Ye wasn't the type to be infatuated with female charms.

Anxiously at heart, he couldn't help coughing violently.

Being stared at from such a close distance made the Little Miracle Healer frown involuntarily.

No one had ever dared to stare at her this way before.

She stopped grinding the herbs and looked up at Lu Ye, wondering, "Fellow Daoist, is there something on my face?"

"Fellow Daoist!"

This title coming from the owner of that face was indeed novel.

Lu Ye narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke faintly, "Nothing, I just thought you looked familiar."

More than familiar, she was strikingly familiar.

Earlier, when they heard the Little Miracle Healer's voice, Lu Ye and Yiyi found it unbelievable because her voice was exactly the same as Hua Ci's, though if one really compared them, the Little Miracle Healer's voice carried a bit more of the vicissitudes of time.

Upon entering the cottage and seeing the back of the Little Miracle Healer, Lu Ye and Yiyi felt even more incredulous.

From the back alone, they almost thought it was Hua Ci standing there.

So even though Lu Ye felt it was impossible, he couldn't help but want to confirm with his own eyes, thus he eagerly walked up to the Little Miracle Healer and stared intently at her.

He almost couldn't resist asking: "What are you doing here?"

It wasn't just anything, the Little Miracle Healer had a face exactly like Hua Ci's.

If they encountered such a woman elsewhere in the Cloud River battlefield, Lu Ye would definitely think Hua Ci had ascended to the Cloud River Realm and had come to the Cloud River battlefield.

But this was the Soaring Dragon World's secret realm.

He had entered through a teleportation array outside the perilous land of the Hundred Arrays Pagoda, and looking over the entire Cloud River battlefield, besides himself who could repair that teleportation array, no one else had the capability.

So it was impossible for Hua Ci to have come in.

The battlefield marking showed no reactions at all.

You should know, whether it was him, Hua Ci, or Yiyi, they were all disciples of the Righteous Blood Sect, each bearing the sect's battlefield marking. Markings from the same sect, when close enough in proximity, could sense each other.

That year when the eldest senior sister Weh Ying boldly killed into the Spirit Stream battlefield with her True Lake cultivation, Lu Ye, who had never seen or heard of her before, still understood from the battlefield marking's sensation that it was one of their own coming.

The figure, voice, and face before him that were exactly like Hua Ci's lacked a battlefield marking, which meant she wasn't Hua Ci.

Of course, the main point was that this woman seemed more mature than Hua Ci.

In terms of age, Hua Ci wasn't that old; Lu Ye estimated she was only one or two years older than himself, it's just that Hua Ci's demeanor tended towards a mature and full type.

While the Little Miracle Healer before him was that kind of thoroughly matured woman.

She looked like an even more mature Hua Ci, her entire being exuding an incredible allure.
