The Invincible Doctor of the Female Village Chief

Chapter 981: Chapter 981: News of the Sixth Seven-Star Tomb

Listening to the brothers sighing, Liu Zixuan chuckled and said, "Since the enemy is leveling up, we can’t afford to fall behind either!"

Because they were treating "Little City Impression" as a temporary base, they’d set aside a separate room just for talking business.

After Liu Zixuan and the others came in, he said with a smile, "The Shadow Guards are in position, and Cheng Feng has already taken control of the nearby surveillance. With the Shi Family helping out, this place is completely secure. Whoever comes over, we’ll know in advance."

"On the Celestial Dao Alliance side, we’ve got brothers from the Thief Sect and people from the Celestial Secret Pavilion watching them. Every move they make, we can get wind of it. So next, you all need to go do something serious!"

"Do something serious?" Jiang Yunxuan, Tiger, and the others exchanged looks, a bit puzzled.

Liu Zixuan took out his phone. On it were two Dragon Vein locations Gu Yu had sent him: "These two places have some opportunities. You two take a look and see who picks which one."

Tiger and Jiang Yunxuan glanced at each other in confusion, took the phone, and asked, "What kind of opportunity?"

"A possible chance to boost your strength. But I can’t guarantee you’ll definitely break through, so it depends on your luck. And this will count as a tempering for you. You can’t go together, you have to split up, and I won’t give you any protection." Liu Zixuan said.

"Zixuan, what the hell are you doing? Why does it feel like our relationship’s getting distant or something?" Tiger scratched his head and said.

"It’s got nothing to do with our bond. Time’s short, hurry up and choose." Liu Zixuan urged.

Jiang Yunxuan stared at the two addresses and thought for a bit: "Then I’ll take this Northwest Wilderness one. I went there once a long time ago, so I at least know it a little."

Tiger nodded, "Then I’ll go to the Jade Maiden Sect side."

"Then pack up and get moving. The time the Celestial Dao Alliance’s leaving us isn’t much." Liu Zixuan waved his hand.

The two of them exchanged a dazed look, then said in unison, "Zixuan, if people from the Celestial Dao Alliance show up, call us right away. We’ll definitely rush back as soon as we can!"

"Relax, there’s no way you’ll miss out on this big battle." Liu Zixuan took out a cigarette, lit it, and smiled.

With that, Tiger and Jiang Yunxuan headed out, and Zhao Yi quickly followed after them.

Standing at the doorway, Tiger and Jiang Yunxuan asked, "Old Zhao, Zixuan’s acting a bit off today, isn’t he?"

"He’s doing this for your own good." Zhao Yi let out a sigh. "All of us, no matter how you look at it, rely on Zixuan way too much. That kind of reliance is good when it comes to feelings, but in reality it’s the opposite. He wants you to truly grow up."

"What about you then?" Tiger asked.

Zhao Yi raised his brows slightly. "Zixuan didn’t say, but I should have other tasks. You two should hurry and go. The opportunities Zixuan gives you definitely won’t be bad."

"Alright." Tiger and Jiang Yunxuan responded, then walked straight out of Little City Impression.

Zhao Yi went back to the room. "They’ve already left!"

Liu Zixuan took a drag on his cigarette. "Old Zhao, when you went to the Sword Sect back then, didn’t those elders and the Sect Leader say anything about the Innate Emperor Realm?"

"They mentioned it. Stuff like the Power of the Five Elements and some more special kinds of power, they all talked about. They even helped me start from the saber, hoping I could use that to break through into the Innate Emperor Realm. But by a twist of fate, I didn’t break through. Instead, the Celestial Spirit Saber changed greatly and birthed a Saber Spirit."

This really did puzzle Liu Zixuan. Back then, his breakthrough into the Innate Emperor Realm was thanks to his Sword Spirit being born, that was his great fortune. Zhao Yi clearly had almost the same opportunity as him, so why was he still just one step short?

The gap between the Acquired Emperor Realm and the Innate Emperor Realm was like heaven and earth. Even though Zhao Yi was only a tiny bit away, it was still a chasm that was hard to cross.

Jiang Yunxuan and Tiger could go to the Dragon Veins to try their luck, but how was Zhao Yi supposed to cross that final line?

"Knock, knock, knock!"

Just as Liu Zixuan was lost in thought, the door was knocked on.

"Come in!"

Ye Lianyi and Xiaoxiao walked in from outside. "We looked all over for you and you really are here."

"And this is?" Zhao Yi frowned and looked at Ye Lianyi.

Ye Lianyi snorted lightly. "What? Change my face and you don’t recognize me anymore?"

"Your voice is familiar, but this..."

Liu Zixuan waved his hand. "It’s Ripple. Before, she used the Youthful Appearance Technique and Disguise Technique. This is her real look."

Zhao Yi widened his eyes and looked carefully. "Damn, this is too goddamn amazing, it’s like a completely different person."

"Don’t talk about me for now." Ye Lianyi took an envelope out of her pocket and handed it to Liu Zixuan. "This is for you."

"What is it?" Liu Zixuan took it and asked in puzzlement.

"Xiaoxiao and I went to eat breakfast. An old man said to give it straight to you. I wanted to ask what was going on, but when I looked up for him, that old man had already vanished. For someone to disappear so easily right in front of me, his strength is probably above Innate Emperor Realm Second Heaven. So I rushed back to give this to you." Ye Lianyi said with a frown.

Liu Zixuan opened the envelope. Inside wasn’t a letter, just a very small slip of paper.

And the words written on it were very simple: Seven-Star Tomb at Anjun Mountain in the Land of the Far West!

Seven-Star Tomb!

The words before didn’t surprise Liu Zixuan, but those last three characters made his pupils contract slightly.

"Have you seen that old man before?" Liu Zixuan asked urgently.

"I have no impression of him at all. Definitely not someone we’re familiar with." Ye Lianyi shook her head.

Liu Zixuan pondered for a moment, then picked up his phone and pulled up the image Mo Chengfeng had sent him. "Does this silhouette look similar?"

Ye Lianyi studied it carefully, then passed it to Xiaoxiao. After a while, the two of them nodded directly. "It’s not very clear, but it should be the same person!"

"Zixuan, do you know him?" Zhao Yi asked.

"He’s the one who helped us from the shadows when we went to pick up Ripple. There was a girl with him, and if nothing unexpected, we know that girl. I just can’t figure out who she is, because in my memory, we’ve never met a powerhouse above Innate Emperor Realm Second Heaven before!"

This left Liu Zixuan completely baffled!

"Since he doesn’t want to show himself directly, then no matter how you look, you won’t find him." Ye Lianyi squeezed Liu Zixuan’s hand. "The note mentions a Seven-Star Tomb. From what I remember, this Seven-Star Tomb seems to be very helpful to you."

"That’s right. Along the way, it’s like everything was arranged. Every time I run into a Seven-Star Tomb, I get an opportunity, whether it’s a breakthrough or some treasure." Liu Zixuan let out a short laugh. "Speaking of which, those Seven-Star Tombs were all guided to me by my beautiful master."

"Lingxiu Village was the first one, Ghost Wood City the second, Celestial Capital the third, Qian Nan the fourth. Back then, Old Qiu from the Celestial Secret Pavilion told me there was a fifth one in Qian Nan Land, and this should be the sixth."

Speaking up to here, Liu Zixuan smiled. "Now I’m more and more convinced my beautiful master still has way, way too many secrets!"
