The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine
Chapter 1125 - Chapter 1125 Chapter 1125 The Wives Are Here

Chapter 1125: Chapter 1125: The Wives Are Here Chapter 1125: Chapter 1125: The Wives Are Here Huang Xiaolong watched Duanmu Wei walk alone to the far left path on the edge of the plaza.

“Little Long, I have high hopes for you in this year’s Dragon Hidden Ranking Competition,” Elder Lan Yue patted Huang Xiaolong on the shoulder. “Your mastery over the path of Ghost Cultivation will catch those geniuses on the list off guard. However, there is one person you should be especially wary of.”

“Oh?” Huang Xiaolong was astonished.

“That person is Nangong Hong!” Elder Lan Yue’s tone became more serious as he spoke.

The other powerful figures present, including an old woman who had reached the mid-phase of the Law of Heaven and Earth, were also visibly moved.

Nangong Hong!

“Yes, Nangong Hong. This man, a disciple of Shushan, is also the first genius to rise from the Shushan Sword Sect in nearly a thousand years! At the age of eighteen, he already made it to the eighth level of the Xuanhuang Tower. His talent and genius are unmatched in our era. His future is undoubtedly that of becoming an immortal!” Elder Lan Yue’s voice trembled. “Nangong Hong has always dominated the top position of the Dragon Hidden Ranking unchallenged! His spot is secure! No one can shake it! All other geniuses, no matter how excellent, can only vie for second place. It’s truly sad that the current geniuses are born in the same era as Nangong Hong; they are forever doomed to live in his shadow!”

“Is he that formidable?” Huang Xiaolong was intrigued.

He was afraid that the so-called geniuses on the Dragon Hidden Ranking might all be like Xia Ding, Shi Feng, and those of similar caliber–impressive to look at but not practical when challenged, making the competition dull. Now, hearing of such a talent, a fighting spirit surged within Huang Xiaolong, and a gleam shone in his eyes.

“Nangong Hong is 27 this year, and he has already reached the late stage of the Tribulation Realm; he’s a freak! And his actual combat power…” Elder Lan Yue gave a somewhat embarrassed smile. “To tell the truth, without exaggeration, when I was at the early phase of the Law of Heaven and Earth, I was slightly less capable than him, lacking his sharpness in Sword Dao.”

Incredible!

A youth in the late stage of the Tribulation Realm could actually defeat Elder Lan Yue when he was at the early phase of the Law of Heaven and Earth!

This was a cross-level battle, and not just across a small realm, but across a seemingly insurmountable major realm!

For example, it’s rare but not impossible for someone at the early phase of the Tribulation Realm to defeat someone at the mid-phase of the same realm.

However, jumping directly from the late phase of the Tribulation Realm to defeat a powerful person at the early phase of the Law of Heaven and Earth was nothing short of a miracle! No, even the word miracle is an understatement for such an achievement!

“Also, Little Long, according to the intelligence I’ve gathered, Nangong Hong has been in seclusion before the start of this year’s Dragon Hidden Ranking Competition. Undoubtedly, he is attempting to break through to a higher realm, to the Law of Heaven and Earth. You know, with the full support of the Shushan Sword Sect pouring their resources into him, his chances of success are very high,” the old woman stated with a sharp intake of breath, very seriously. “Little Long, if Nangong Hong successfully advances during this competition, do you realize what that means?”

“Of course, I know. If he could defeat powerhouses in the early phase of the Law of Heaven and Earth while he was at the late phase of the Tribulation Realm, wouldn’t he be unstoppable if he ascended to the Law of Heaven and Earth? He would sweep everything aside!” Huang Xiaolong smiled meaningfully, muttering to himself–

‘I’m actually hoping this Nangong Hong reaches the Law of Heaven and Earth! The stronger he is, the better! Only then will defeating him be truly satisfying!’

Moreover, Huang Xiaolong knew very well that there would inevitably be a clash between him and the Shushan Sword Sect!

Several disciples from the Shushan Sword Sect had already perished at Huang Xiaolong’s hands, and with the sect’s influence, it was impossible they wouldn’t trace it back to him!

Huang Xiaolong wasn’t flawless in covering his tracks, after all!

‘A battle with that Nangong Hong is inevitable… unavoidable!’

“Little Long, all in all, Nangong Hong is like a deity descended to earth. In this Dragon Hidden Ranking battle, you should avoid him if possible,” Elder Lan Yue kindly advised. “All right, let’s head in.”

With that, Elder Lan Yue and a group of mighty figures directly entered the path on the far right side of the plaza.

The middle path was the one Huang Xiaolong took, meant for newcomers who hadn’t yet ranked on the Dragon Hidden Ranking but were participating in the competition.

Without further hesitation, Huang Xiaolong quickly walked towards the central grand avenue.

Beside Huang Xiaolong, numerous young men and women hurried past, all with excited expressions and almost brimming with pride.

“Hurry, hurry! The Dragon Hidden Ranking Competition is about to start! I can’t wait any longer! This is the moment to make a name for oneself! So thrilling!”

“Hmph! I’ve rigorously trained for years, and my killing move is perfected. This year, my name will surely be on the Hidden Dragon Rankings!”

“Those geniuses on the list aren’t necessarily stronger than me! All I’m missing is an opportunity! Now that it’s here, I must seize it!”

“Our Sect Master said, as long as I make it onto the list this time, he will betroth Little Sister to me! For Little Sister, for love, I shall fight!”

…

The warriors around Huang Xiaolong were brimming with fighting spirit, and each of them couldn’t stop fantasizing.

Huang Xiaolong, without a change in expression, swept the area with his divine sense and discovered–

The majority of the newcomers were in the Divine Skills realm, with fewer in the Transcending Tribulation realm.

‘Heh~~ There are still many daydreamers these days. With this rabble, they still fantasize about making the list? That’s simply foolish~~~’ Huang Xiaolong shook his head.

As they walked, suddenly!

“Hmm?” Huang Xiaolong’s expression subtly changed. He sensed the presence of his wives!!!!

Ma Chuxia! Huo Bingyan! Yan Pianpian! Feng Hanyan!

Four wives!

Because Huang Xiaolong had left life-saving moves in their souls, he could accurately sense their approximate locations!

And now, Huang Xiaolong indeed felt very clearly that his four wives were here on Codfish Island!

‘Hahaha! Did my wives come along with the people from Emei to watch the Hidden Dragon Rankings competition?’

Huang Xiaolong was overjoyed!

It had been a long time since he had seen his wives!

“That’s great! My dear wives, I don’t know how your cultivation has been these days, whether you’ve lost weight or gained weight… hahaha~~~ soon we’ll meet! Soon we’ll meet!”

Now, Huang Xiaolong was desperate to see his wives right away.

However, upon a careful sensing, his wives were not walking the middle path, meaning, they were not participating in this year’s Hidden Dragon Rankings battle.

Then, they must have taken the path farthest to the right. They were just here to watch!

Huang Xiaolong moved quickly, his steps swift as light, brushing past some people.

At the end of the road, a ravine appeared ahead.

This ravine was immeasurable in length and several dozens of yards wide. Below seemed to be a bottomless abyss, dark and ominous.

Many people stood on one side of the ravine, looking across to the other side.

On the other side was a cave with light seeping out from its entrance.

“All newcomers who wish to participate in this year’s Hidden Dragon Rankings must cross a barrier, um, just cross this ravine,” a deep male voice echoed through the space, but no one was visible. “Those who can successfully cross the ravine will enter the cave and proceed to the battlefield. Those who cannot will fall into the abyss, but don’t worry, you won’t die; you will be transmitted to the spectator seats.”
