The ancient healer and Ye Chen went through another twenty rounds.
The more the ancient divine doctor fought, the more alarmed he became. He had a Yellow-rank spiritual treasure in hand, yet he still couldn't defeat Ye Chen after so many rounds.
The shock of this fact to him can be imagined.
Admittedly, he is not particularly talented. Even though he received teachings from his master, he is only at the intermediate level of the Yellow Rank.
However, the ancient divine doctor believed that he was not a weak opponent at his level. If it were any other Yellow Rank expert, he would probably have killed them long ago.
"It seems we can't let this kid live. If we let him go today, we might as well release a tiger back into the mountains!"
Having made up his mind, the ancient physician became even more ruthless in his attacks.
Ye Chen was already in a weak position, and this only made things worse.
Su Yang watched the two fight.
Perhaps for ordinary people, Ye Chen and the Ancient Divine Doctor's movements are simply impossible to capture.
But in reality, for him, the two of them were just two noobs pecking at each other.
It was just a fight between people at the fifth level of the Body Tempering Realm.
He had already reached this level when he was ten years old.
Compared to Ye Chen and the ancient divine doctor's childish game.
He actually found Zhao Qianyang and Xu Qing's reactions more interesting.
After Ye Chen and the Ancient Divine Doctor started fighting.
The arrogance on the former's face had long since disappeared.
As for the latter, although she tried her best to hide it, it was not hard to see that she was worried.
"Ye Chen, you'd better be alright!"
I won't let anything happen to you, do you hear me!
Clenching his fists, Zhao Qianyang shouted in his heart.
Moreover, his eyes revealed the same worry as Xu Qing's.
His concern wasn't directed at anyone else, but specifically at Ye Chen.
No one knew that he didn't actually dislike Ye Chen as much as he appeared to.
On the contrary, he had wanted to get close to Ye Chen since elementary school.
But the family environment in which they grew up and the education they received.
He had no idea how to get along with Ye Chen.
Naturally, at such a young and naive age, and with those complicated feelings, he chose to oppose Ye Chen at every turn.
It's like the innocent confusion of youth, where you bully the girl in front of you because you like her.
Because I like her, I'm going to provoke the girl sitting next to me.
Also because I like her, even though I know it will annoy her, I still want her to pay more attention to me, even if it's just for a moment.
His love was so clumsy.
Even when he was in junior high, high school, or even college.
In order to be in the same school and the same class as Ye Chen.
She even tried to stay at the same desk with Ye Chen every semester.
He himself didn't know how many times he had used his family connections to put pressure on the school and the teachers.
Despite each time he walked to the seat next to Ye Chen with his schoolbag, he was met with an annoyed look.
But he never backed down.
Even so that Ye Chen would have him in his eyes, or rather, so that Ye Chen would only have him in his eyes.
He even went so far as to drive away everyone around Ye Chen.
Whether man or woman.
Take Xu Qing for example.
He didn't actually like her at all, and it wasn't for Ye Chen's sake that he liked her.
He didn't even want to look at this woman twice.
God knows what happened when Ye Chen went to confess his feelings to Xu Qing after learning that he had graduated from high school.
What a devastating blow it was to him!
He couldn't accept that from now on, Ye Chen would have a very close person by his side.
But this person is not him.
Just imagining that scene makes my heart ache, like needles piercing my chest.
He even tried to ruin Xu Qing on several occasions.
However, when he saw Ye Chen's happy and content expression again, he hesitated once more.
Because the expression on Ye Chen's face at that time was something he had never seen before.
So, faced with the choice between Ye Chen's happiness and his own, he chose the former.
During his four years at university, he chose not to get close to Ye Chen, only occasionally watching him from the shadows.
Watching Ye Chen and Xu Qing enjoying their time together.
He had actually received the news from Ye Chen's friends.
I've heard them say that Ye Chen bought clothes and bags for Xu Qing, while he himself was reluctant to eat or dress well.
He felt heartache and pain for it.
But if Ye Chen is willing, he will accept it.
But all of this changed at the dance after I graduated from college.
That was one of the few times he had seen Ye Chen in the past four years.
In the dim light, Ye Chen, dressed in a suit, looked handsome and well-mannered.
Just one glance seemed to awaken those memories deep within his mind.
He couldn't control himself and ultimately chose to stand in front of him that night.
"You good-for-nothing, you dress like a dog, but that can't hide the poverty and squalor in your bones."
These were the words he said to Ye Chen when they first met.
He still remembers it.
Perhaps it was due to years of habit, or perhaps it was because every time he faced Ye Chen, his heart would race unconsciously, and he would only want to avoid his gaze.
So, as always, he chose to use harsh words to cover up his true thoughts.
What he really wanted to say to Ye Chen that night was: "Silly boy, this outfit looks great on you and really brings out your style."
But how could he possibly say such a thing?
Perhaps it was a happy day for everyone, so Ye Chen didn't hold it against him as usual.
He was even happy about it for a long time and drank a couple more glasses.
However, just when he thought Ye Chen might have understood his feelings, he unexpectedly saw the woman who had taken Ye Chen away from him.
