Urban Super Medical Sage-Chapter 1973 - 2069: News (Third Update)

"Just give it your all." Su Chen nodded with a smile, though inwardly he felt the weight. The level of attention this showdown received was beyond Di Qiong’s expectations and also his own. Bringing Di Qiong back unscathed was not going to be easy, but no matter how difficult or dangerous, Su Chen’s resolve remained unchanged.

Two days later.

Wind Province Capital.

Su Chen, Tailing Nishang, and Di Qiong walked along the bustling street.

Indeed, it was bustling enough to leave one speechless.

To give a simple example, the street was lined with top-level Nine-Legged Beast Carriages, carrying various young masters and ladies. These top-level Nine-Legged Beasts, according to Di Qiong, were not too common even in the Gao Family Commerce Association of the Capital of State Yuan, which owned only thirteen. This was already the largest number owned by any power in the Capital of State Yuan.

But in the Wind Province Capital? With just a glance down the street, you could see more than thirteen top-level Nine-Legged Beasts.

Also, the street was almost entirely filled with Martial Cultivators above Fifth Level of Deity Level, with quite a few in the Realm of Returning to Truth.

Additionally, the shops lining the street, even the gorgeous saleswomen standing at the welcoming entrance, were in the Realm of Returning to Truth.

Quite terrifying.

The wide thousand-meter street, stretching hundreds of kilometers long, was covered in blocks of Unresentful Crystal, each piece was crystal clear, a grand display.

"Wind Province is much stronger than State Yuan." Di Qiong whispered. She came from the Gao Family Commerce Association of the Capital of State Yuan, so she naturally knew its standing.

Suddenly.

Tailing Nishang looked ahead to the left, a hint of curiosity in her beautiful eyes: "Mas...Master, why are there so many people over there?"

Both Su Chen and Di Qiong followed Tailing Nishang’s gaze.

It was an attic.

A very peculiar building, entirely blood-red.

Extremely exquisite. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Typical attics have eight corners; this one had sixty-four. Each corner housed a strange beast, not sculpted but real, encased like specimens in amber crystal stone, lifelike, sitting atop each corner, mesmerizing viewers to give them a second look.

In front of the attic were two large characters.

"Xiaoyao!"

These two characters, ’Xiaoyao’, attracted numerous Martial Cultivators to stand before the attic.

"Those two characters ’Xiaoyao’ are not simple, they contain top-level Martial Will. Those who stand in front are all watching the characters, trying to comprehend something from them." Su Chen scanned briefly, expressing interest.

"Xiaoyao Tower, is it a restaurant? Master, let’s try it out. I heard about this Xiaoyao Tower in Wind Province when I was in the Capital of State Yuan." A hint of eagerness showed on Di Qiong’s face. It was worth noting that both Di Qiong and Tailing Nishang wore veils.

It’s not because Su Chen was afraid.

The two ladies had such striking beauty, unbelievably captivating. Without veils, troubles would be endless.

"Alright." Su Chen certainly wouldn’t refuse. The decisive battle was tomorrow; today was the chance to experience Wind Province’s culture, try famous Wind Province dishes, and allow Di Qiong to relax.

Soon.

Su Chen and the two walked into Xiaoyao Tower.

As they entered, a gust of ’high-end and classy’ atmosphere greeted them.

The hall was spacious and luxurious, yet only ten tables were set.

The service staff were all women, each beautiful. According to Su Chen’s score, each would rate about 8, rare in a thousand miles. Not only beautiful, but their strength was impressive, uniformly in the Realm of Returning to Truth.

Luckily, there was one empty table left among the ten.

Led by a service lady, the three headed towards the empty table.

The arrival of Su Chen and his companions drew the attention from Martial Cultivators dining at the other nine tables in the hall.

It’s inevitable, given that Di Qiong and Tailing Nishang were wearing veils.

Sometimes, not wearing a veil can attract endless troubles due to beauty, while wearing one can invite curiosity and attract attention.

"They’re strong." Tailing Nishang’s expression changed slightly, still somewhat tense because among the other nine tables, forty to fifty people were all Top Prodigy Level. Nearly all above the Third Level in the Realm of Returning to Truth, even a few in the Fifth Level, intimidating indeed.

It’s understandable, Xiaoyao Tower is of extremely high standard, considered the number one restaurant in Wind Province. The costs are extremely high, and those dining here are no ordinary Martial Cultivators.

"Don’t be nervous." Su Chen grasped Tailing Nishang’s little hand, knowing this girl spent most of her time in the Yang Sea Region Abyss City within State Yuan, and indeed had not been exposed to so many top-level powerhouses. Being stared at by so many was naturally nerve-wracking.

The three sat down and ordered a few signature dishes.

The Martial Cultivators at the other nine tables mostly returned to their conversation.

"It’s truly a spectacle!"

"Wind Province’s capital is getting crowded these days, packed to the brim."

"Tomorrow is the focus battle; of course, many are coming to watch."

"Hehe... a focus? Young Master Yi should easily settle that girl named Di Qiong in one move."

"One move is an exaggeration, it’s said Di Qiong is also in the Seventh Layer of the Realm of Returning to Truth. However, the State Yuan has always been relatively weak; personally, I think her Seventh Layer has discrepancies."

"Have you been to Linglong Gambling House? It’s buzzing these days. Linglong Gambling House’s odds are 1:3."

"Only 1:3? 1:100 would do, is there even a chance Young Master Yi loses?"

"Honestly, that girl named Di Qiong probably doesn’t truly understand Yi Fu, otherwise she wouldn’t seek death by fighting him."

"Indeed! Wind Province’s once-in-a-ten-thousand-year Super Genius, yet challenged fearlessly, ignorance is truly bliss!"

......

Unsurprisingly, the other nine tables were all discussing the upcoming battle between Di Qiong and Yi Fu. Being residents of Wind Province, naturally they supported Yi Fu, keen on belittling Di Qiong.

Su Chen and the two listened.

There was not a trace of emotional fluctuation.

On the contrary, the three continued listening with interest.

"Have you heard about tonight’s Mandarin Duck Tower banquet? Young Master Xu is inviting top prodigies from within the Wind Province Capital, including Young Master Yi and Di Qiong from State Yuan. Speaking of, Young Master Xu is already a Son of the Emperor; returning, it’s testament to Young Master Yi’s influence." Suddenly, a voice was heard, tinged with envy, "Anyone here received an invitation?"

Most in the hall heard this.

Then.

Clearly, most diverted their gaze to the corner table by the window.
