Strongest Medical Saint-Chapter 449: The Dragon among Men

Seeing that her master still hadn't spoken, Yin Mengwei knew something unexpected must have occurred, just as she wanted to press for an answer.

Gong Lengmei briefly recounted the bursting of Lin Qiurong's Life and Death Lamp.

Looking at Yin Mengwei's furrowed brows, Gong Lengmei advised, "Mengwei, now is a crucial period, it is not apt to start new problems."

"In about two months, the Martial Arts World will undergo a complete transformation, possibly returning to its heyday of cultivation from thousands of years ago."

"Junior Sister Lin's combat power is only slightly less than mine, and she had many tricks up her sleeve, if we fought regardless of our lives, I could only tie with her."

Yin Mengwei's fair hand suddenly clenched into a fist; she had always treated Yin Duoer as a sister.

In the Green Jade Gate, there was no Life and Death Lamp for Yin Duoer.

However, with even Lin Qiurong dead, the chances of Yin Duoer being alive were almost nonexistent.

Yin Mengwei's face was filled with rage; with her current cultivation, she was arrogantly proud to be regarded as one of the top figures in the Martial Arts World.

A mere Three Gods Palace? How could it claim Lin Qiurong's life?

"Master, I want to make a trip to the Three Gods Palace," a fierce aura burst forth from Yin Mengwei.

Gong Lengmei flatly refused, "No, from today onwards, for the next two months, you must stay at the Green Jade Gate."

It was true that there had been people who walked out of the Gate of Life and Death and lived, but their cultivation hadn't soared so rapidly.

In the future, Yin Mengwei might lead the Green Jade Gate to new heights. How could Gong Lengmei agree to let her take such a risk at this time!

In an attempt to comfort her, Gong Lengmei patted Yin Mengwei's shoulder and continued, "Mengwei, with your current cultivation, you are definitely qualified to be the Supreme Elder of Green Jade Gate, I will propose this to the Sect."

"As for the Three Gods Palace, let's wait for two months. By then, there will naturally be true powerhouses who will obliterate the Three Gods Palace for us."

After a slight sigh, she added, "Mengwei, I know that you've always considered Duo'er as a sister, but Junior Sister Lin and I grew up together in the Green Jade Gate, do you think I'm not angry?"

"In today's Martial Arts World, Innate Peak indeed stands at the top, but what would it count for during the peak cultivation era thousands of years ago?"

"Shen Xiaoyao is now a hot topic in the Martial Arts World, as he managed to subjugate Taiyi Sect single-handedly, destroyed the Shen Family in Capital City, killed the Shen Family's Supreme Elder, Family Head, and Young Master in the Martial Arts World, and seems unstoppable by anyone."

"But just wait for two more months, when the Martial Arts World ushers in a new era and the true powerhouses emerge one after another, what will Shen Xiaoyao amount to? He won't even be worthy to carry the shoes of those powerhouses."

"Previously, I always thought that Shen Xiaoyao might be an unpredictable factor, but I don't think so anymore. I had underestimated those mighty figures who are about to burst onto the scene."

"Mengwei, watch and see! If Shen Xiaoyao still dares to act so recklessly in the Martial Arts World two months from now, someone will surely send him to report to Yama's Palace,"

Yin Mengwei had always heard Gong Lengmei say that the Martial Arts World was about to welcome a new era, but she didn't understand why her master would say such a thing. She didn't dare to ask more at that time, but now, after her cultivation had risen to be on par with Gong Lengmei, her courage grew considerably, and she asked, "Master, these emerging powerhouses you speak of, where do they come from?"

After hesitating for a moment, Gong Lengmei said, "Mengwei, do you think the powerful Great Sects from thousands of years ago really disappeared from this world? There are too many secrets hidden within, too many to explain in just a few words. You will naturally understand after two months."

"Master, you never had the chance to enter the Gate of Life and Death in your lifetime; what did you encounter in there?"

Yin Mengwei recalled her days inside the Gate of Life and Death, and her face unconsciously revealed a look of fear. She said, "Master, the Gate of Life and Death is an immense world filled with all kinds of mysteries. One careless step could lead to death. There were many times I almost couldn't make it out. I only wandered in the shallowest areas of the Gate and didn't dare to venture deeper. By a fortunate coincidence, I obtained two opportunities that rapidly increased my cultivation to its current realm."

After a pause, she continued, "Master, who exactly created the Gate of Life and Death?"

Gong Lengmei shook her head, "This I am not clear about either. I only know that one night, the mountain behind our Green Jade Gate was ablaze with brilliant light, startling the entire sect. Afterwards, a stone gate appeared at the summit of the mountain."

"After many years of probing, we discovered some patterns, realizing that this Gate of Life and Death only opens once every twenty years, and each time, only one person under the age of thirty can enter."

"If this Gate of Life and Death had appeared during the prosperous period thousands of years ago, it would probably have already been dominated by those powerful sects and thoroughly explored by them."

"This time is the last time our Green Jade Gate will have control over the Gate of Life and Death. Two months from now, it will no longer belong to our Green Jade Gate."

"Mengwei, don't think too much. When the time comes, I will let you witness the downfall of the Three Gods Palace, and you will see the people within it dying one by one."

Yin Mengwei eventually managed to suppress her anger. She now had an inkling that the Sects from the most prosperous era of cultivation still existed and would soon make their appearance. Compared to these Sects, the current Martial Arts World simply paled in significance.

From her master's tone, it seemed the Green Jade Gate already had a contingency plan. She had just been too angry earlier. She was not a person to act on impulse and said, "Master, I will stay within the sect for these two months."

Gong Lengmei finally showed a faint smile, "Now that the Shen Family of the Capital City and the Shen Family of the Martial Arts World have been destroyed, and your betrothed, Shen Tianzhi, is also dead, it spares me the trouble of breaking off the engagement for you."

"The son of the Shen Family Head in the Capital City, how could he possibly be worthy of you, my disciple? I will immediately announce that you are my disciple, and the fact that you'll become the Supreme Elder of the Green Jade Gate, I will also declare to the world. From now on, your family will, without any reservations, be under the care of our Green Jade Gate."

Yin Mengwei nodded calmly. When Gong Lengmei mentioned the deceased Shen Tianzhi, Yin Mengwei couldn't help but think of Shen Feng whom she had met on Death Island.

In her eyes, Shen Feng was just a weakling full of pride. Now that the Shen Family of the Capital City had fallen, she considered Shen Feng lucky to at least have the chance to continue living.

She couldn't help but shake her head slightly as a sneer of disdain curled at the corner of her mouth, her heart undisturbed by any ripples.

In her view, Shen Feng was just a pathetic minor character, someone who was destined never to cross paths with her again.

Gong Lengmei, looking at Yin Mengwei lost in thought, said, "Mengwei, let's go! The man destined for you will surely be a dragon among men! You are qualified to step into the coming new era. You will soon witness for yourself what a true genius looks like!"
