Chapter 470

## Chapter 661: You're So Arrogant

"Little brother, why are you here?" Shen Mengqin's eyes flashed with surprise when she saw Ye Chen.

Ye Chen walked up to Shen Mengqin and said calmly, "Sister Shen, how could I not come when you're in trouble?"

"Thank you, Ye Chen, but please leave quickly! You can't afford to offend these people," Shen Mengqin urged anxiously.

Ye Chen glanced at Huang Hu and the burly men, a flicker of disdain in his eyes. "Why couldn't I afford to offend these people?" he asked indifferently.

Huang Hu snorted coldly, scoffing, "Kid, you're so arrogant! Believe it or not, I'll make sure you don't leave this place alive."

"You dare to hurt Sister Shen, and I'll make you kneel and apologize!" Ye Chen declared domineeringly.

"You!" Huang Hu hadn't expected such audacity from a young man. Many powerful figures in the underworld treated him with respect.

Huang Hu scoffed, "Shen Mengqin, your little lover is quite arrogant! Today, I'll cripple him, believe me!"

"Huang Hu, how dare you!" Shen Mengqin shrieked.

Huang Hu laughed heartily, "Shen Mengqin, what wouldn't I dare to do? Today I'll cripple him, and let's see what you can do about it!"

"Huang Hu, Ye Chen is no ordinary person, you can't touch him!" Shen Mengqin exclaimed, worried.

Huang Hu snorted, "Hmph, so what if he's not ordinary? Today, I dare to touch even you, let alone a mere wage earner like him!"

Huang Hu extended his right hand, grabbing a handful of Shen Mengqin's hair and pulling it roughly.

"Sister Shen!" A cold glint flashed in Ye Chen's eyes.

Ye Chen took a step forward, instantly appearing beside Huang Hu, and slapped Huang Hu's right hand.

Huang Hu felt a jolt in his right hand, as if his bones had cracked. He instinctively let go, and Shen Mengqin's hair fell free.

Huang Hu's eyes widened, filled with shock. This young man was incredibly powerful.

"You, you little brat!" Huang Hu's eyes blazed with fury as he roared at Ye Chen, "Kid, do you know who I am? How dare you hit me!"

"I don't care who you are. Is Sister Shen's hair something you can touch?" Ye Chen replied coldly.

"Kid, very well, very well!" Huang Hu's face darkened as he roared, "Brothers, get him! Cripple him!"

At Huang Hu's command, several burly men pulled out machetes and charged at Ye Chen. These men were clearly not ordinary; they exuded a menacing aura. They were Huang Hu's thugs, and their hands were stained with blood.

Seeing the burly men rush at him, a hint of disdain flickered in Ye Chen's eyes.

"Asking for death!" Ye Chen's figure vanished instantly, reappearing among the burly men.

A series of dull thuds echoed, and the burly men flew out like kites with broken strings. They fell to the ground, groaning in pain.

Huang Hu's pupils contracted sharply, his eyes filled with shock. The young man's strength was terrifying. His thugs, each capable of fighting ten men, were utterly helpless before Ye Chen.

"You, who exactly are you?" Huang Hu's eyes were filled with fear.

"I am someone you can't afford to offend!" Ye Chen said coldly.

Huang Hu's body trembled, cold sweat beading on his forehead. He hadn't expected Ye Chen to be so terrifying; he had clearly picked a fight with the wrong person today.

"Ye Chen, I was wrong, I shouldn't have touched Shen Mengqin!" Huang Hu dropped to his knees with a thud, his voice trembling, "Ye Chen, please spare me!"

"Spare you? When you were threatening Sister Shen, why didn't you think about sparing her?" Ye Chen retorted coldly.

Huang Hu's body trembled, and he dared not speak further.

"Ye Chen, please spare him!" Shen Mengqin pleaded anxiously. "Although Huang Hu is detestable, he's still a local gang leader. If you kill him, it might cause even bigger trouble!"

Though Shen Mengqin didn't understand why Ye Chen's strength was so terrifying, she knew there must be powerful figures behind Huang Hu. If Ye Chen really killed Huang Hu, it would likely lead to greater complications.

A hint of disdain flashed in Ye Chen's eyes as he said calmly, "Sister Shen, do you think I'm afraid of trouble?"

Shen Mengqin was startled. Ye Chen's tone was full of confidence. She suddenly realized that Ye Chen was not an ordinary person.

Ye Chen turned to Huang Hu and said coolly, "Get lost! If I ever see you bullying Sister Shen again, I'll make you regret it!"

Huang Hu felt as if he had been granted a great pardon and scrambled away, crawling and rolling.

After Huang Hu left, Shen Mengqin's body trembled, and she almost fell to the ground. Ye Chen quickly supported her, asking with concern, "Sister Shen, are you alright?"

Shen Mengqin shook her head, her eyes filled with gratitude. "Ye Chen, thank you!"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Sister Shen, we're friends. No need to thank me."

Shen Mengqin looked at Ye Chen and suddenly noticed a change in him. The old Ye Chen, though sunny and handsome, didn't possess the current domineering aura. Now, Ye Chen was like a king, exuding an authoritative presence.

Shen Mengqin's heart pounded, and her face flushed slightly. She suddenly realized she might have fallen in love with Ye Chen.

Ye Chen supported Shen Mengqin and asked, "Sister Shen, why were those people bullying you?"

Shen Mengqin sighed and said, "Ye Chen, it's a long story!"

"Sister Shen, let's go back to the medical clinic first! Your health is important," Ye Chen said.

Shen Mengqin nodded and followed Ye Chen back to the medical clinic.

Ye Chen examined Shen Mengqin and found that she was not seriously injured. He then prescribed some nourishing medicine for her, advising her to rest well.

Though Shen Mengqin was physically fine, her heart was filled with worry. Ye Chen noticed her preoccupation and asked, "Sister Shen, is something on your mind?"

Shen Mengqin nodded and said, "Ye Chen, our medical clinic has been in some trouble recently!"

"What kind of trouble?" Ye Chen asked.

Shen Mengqin sighed, "Ye Chen, our clinic's business has been getting worse lately. Patients prefer to go to other clinics rather than ours."

"What's going on?" Ye Chen frowned.

Shen Mengqin said, "Ye Chen, I don't know what's happening, but I suspect someone is working behind the scenes!"

"Working behind the scenes?" A cold glint flashed in Ye Chen's eyes.

"Sister Shen, tell me who is behind this, and I'll make them pay!" Ye Chen declared domineeringly.

Shen Mengqin shook her head. "Ye Chen, I don't know who is doing it, but I suspect it's the Medicine King Valley!"

"Medicine King Valley?" A hint of confusion appeared in Ye Chen's eyes.

Shen Mengqin nodded. "The Medicine King Valley is the largest medicinal herbs supplier in Huaxia, almost monopolizing the medicinal herbs market."

"Our clinic's herbs all come from the Medicine King Valley. Recently, they suddenly stopped supplying us, causing our medical herbs to run out."

"With our supply cut off, patients naturally don't want to come to our clinic for treatment."

A look of understanding flashed in Ye Chen's eyes. "Medicine King Valley!"

Ye Chen snorted coldly, "How dare the Medicine King Valley bully Sister Shen!"

Shen Mengqin shook her head. "Ye Chen, the Medicine King Valley is very powerful. We simply can't afford to offend them."

"Can't afford to offend?" A playful smile curled on Ye Chen's lips. "Sister Shen, have you forgotten that I am a doctor?"

Shen Mengqin was taken aback. What did Ye Chen mean by that?

Ye Chen continued, "Although the Medicine King Valley monopolizes the medicinal herbs market in Huaxia, they can't monopolize the patients of Huaxia!"

A hint of confusion flashed in Shen Mengqin's eyes.

Ye Chen smiled mysteriously and said, "Sister Shen, just wait and see! I will definitely make the Medicine King Valley regret this!"

Shen Mengqin looked at Ye Chen, her eyes full of bewilderment. She didn't understand how Ye Chen planned to make the Medicine King Valley regret their actions. However, she had complete trust in him.

Ye Chen said, "Sister Shen, you should rest well. I'm going out for a bit!"

Shen Mengqin nodded and said, "Ye Chen, be careful!"

Ye Chen smiled and left the medical clinic.

After leaving the medical clinic, Ye Chen went directly to the Medicine King Valley.

The Medicine King Valley was located in a secluded valley in Huaxia, and the entire valley was filled with the fragrance of medicinal herbs. The buildings of the Medicine King Valley were simple and elegant, full of classical charm.

When Ye Chen arrived at the entrance of the Medicine King Valley, he was stopped by two guards.

"Stop, who are you?" a guard asked coldly.

Ye Chen said calmly, "I'm here to see your Valley Master, Ye Tianyuan."

The guards were startled, a hint of surprise in their eyes. Ye Tianyuan was the Valley Master of the Medicine King Valley, a highly respected figure. How could a young man know Ye Tianyuan?

The guard snorted, "Kid, don't talk nonsense here. Our Valley Master isn't someone you can just see whenever you want!"

A flicker of impatience crossed Ye Chen's eyes.

"I'll say it again, tell Ye Tianyuan to come out and see me!" Ye Chen said coldly.

The guard roared, "Kid, if you don't get lost, I won't be so polite!"

Ye Chen sneered, "Is that so? I'd like to see how impolite you can be!"

Ye Chen took a step forward, instantly appearing beside the guard, and slapped the guard's face.

The guard felt a burning sensation on his face, and his body flew out like a kite with a broken string. The guard fell to the ground, groaning in pain.

The other guard, seeing this, was filled with shock. This young man's strength was terrifying. Each of their guards could fight ten men, yet they were so easily defeated by Ye Chen.

"You, who exactly are you?" The guard's eyes were filled with fear.

"I am someone you can't afford to offend!" Ye Chen said coldly.

The guard's body trembled, cold sweat beading on his forehead. He hadn't expected Ye Chen to be so terrifying; he had clearly picked a fight with the wrong person today.

"Ye Chen, I was wrong, I shouldn't have stopped you!" The guard dropped to his knees with a thud, his voice trembling, "Ye Chen, please spare me!"

"Spare you? When you were stopping me, why didn't you think about sparing me?" Ye Chen retorted coldly.

The guard's body trembled, and he dared not speak further.

"Ye Chen, please spare him!" An old voice drifted in. Ye Chen turned his head and saw an elder walking over.

The elder had white hair but a spirited demeanor, and his eyes were full of wisdom. The elder was none other than Ye Tianyuan, the Valley Master of the Medicine King Valley.

Ye Chen looked at Ye Tianyuan, a playful glint in his eyes.

Ye Tianyuan approached Ye Chen, cupped his fists, and said, "This old man is Ye Tianyuan, Valley Master of Medicine King Valley. May I ask your esteemed name, young friend?"

"Ye Chen!" Ye Chen replied calmly.

Ye Tianyuan was startled, a hint of surprise in his eyes. He seemed to have heard the name Ye Chen somewhere before. Ye Tianyuan thought carefully and suddenly remembered something.

"You are Ye Chen? The Ye Chen with such divine medical skills?" Ye Tianyuan's eyes were filled with shock.

Ye Chen said calmly, "That's me!"

Ye Tianyuan exclaimed excitedly, "Ye Chen, I never thought you would come to the Medicine King Valley!"

Ye Chen said coldly, "I came to the Medicine King Valley because I want to ask you something."

"What is it?" Ye Tianyuan asked.

A cold glint flashed in Ye Chen's eyes as he asked, "Why did you stop supplying medicinal herbs to Shen Mengqin's medical clinic?"

Ye Tianyuan's face changed, a hint of panic in his eyes. He hadn't expected Ye Chen to come for this matter.

Ye Tianyuan quickly explained, "Ye Chen, this is a misunderstanding. I'll immediately have someone supply medicinal herbs to Shen Mengqin's medical clinic!"

Ye Chen snorted, "Misunderstanding? I think you want to annex Shen Mengqin's medical clinic!"

Ye Tianyuan's face turned pale, and he dared not speak further.

"Ye Chen, I was wrong, I'll never dare to do it again!" Ye Tianyuan dropped to his knees with a thud, his voice trembling, "Ye Chen, please spare me!"

Ye Chen looked at Ye Tianyuan, his eyes filled with disdain.

"The Valley Master of Medicine King Valley is so worthless!" Ye Chen said coldly.

Ye Tianyuan dared not speak further, merely bowing his head, his body trembling.

"Get lost! If I ever see you bullying Sister Shen again, I'll make you regret it!" Ye Chen said coldly.

Ye Tianyuan felt as if he had been granted a great pardon and scrambled away, crawling and rolling.

Ye Chen watched Ye Tianyuan's retreating figure, a hint of disdain in his eyes. "Medicine King Valley, I'd like to see just how capable you truly are!" Ye Chen said coldly.

Ye Chen left the Medicine King Valley and returned to the medical clinic.

Shen Mengqin saw Ye Chen return and quickly asked, "Ye Chen, are you alright?"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Sister Shen, I'm fine!"

Shen Mengqin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Ye Chen, where did you go just now?"

Ye Chen said, "Sister Shen, I went to the Medicine King Valley."

Shen Mengqin was startled, her eyes filled with shock. "Ye Chen, are you crazy! The Medicine King Valley is very powerful, how dare you go there!" Shen Mengqin asked anxiously.

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Sister Shen, don't worry! The Medicine King Valley has already agreed to supply our clinic with medicinal herbs."

Shen Mengqin's eyes were filled with pleasant surprise. "Really? Ye Chen, you really did it!" Shen Mengqin exclaimed excitedly.

Ye Chen nodded and said, "Sister Shen, when have I ever lied to you!"

Shen Mengqin excitedly hugged Ye Chen. Ye Chen's body stiffened, a little unaccustomed to it. Shen Mengqin quickly released Ye Chen, her face flushed slightly.

"Ye Chen, thank you!"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Sister Shen, we're friends. No need to thank me."

Shen Mengqin looked at Ye Chen, her eyes filled with tenderness. "Ye Chen, you're so kind!"

Ye Chen felt a little awkward and said, "Sister Shen, you should rest well first! I still have something to do!"

Ye Chen left Shen Mengqin's room and went to the medical clinic hall. The hall was full of patients. Ye Chen was surprised, not quite understanding what was happening.

Shen Mengqin walked over and said, "Ye Chen, the Medicine King Valley has already resumed supplying us with medicinal herbs, that's why the patients have come."

Ye Chen nodded and said, "Sister Shen, you go ahead and get busy! I'll see to the patients."

Shen Mengqin nodded and left the medical clinic hall.

Ye Chen began to treat the patients. His medical skills were superb, and he quickly cured the patients. Everyone praised Ye Chen profusely.

"Doctor Ye, your medical skills are truly exceptional!"

"Yes! I went to many clinics before and didn't get better, but Doctor Ye cured me in an instant!"

"Doctor Ye, you are truly a miracle doctor!"

The patients were all full of gratitude towards Ye Chen.

Ye Chen smiled and said, "You're all too kind. I'm just fulfilling the duty of a doctor."

Ye Chen was busy all day, finishing only in the evening. He returned to his room and found Shen Mengqin already asleep. Ye Chen looked at Shen Mengqin's sleeping face, his eyes filled with tenderness. He gently covered Shen Mengqin with the quilt and left the room.

Ye Chen went to the medical clinic courtyard and began to cultivate. His strength grew steadily, and he quickly reached the Golden Core stage. Ye Chen felt his power, and his eyes filled with joy.

"Golden Core stage, I finally reached the Golden Core stage!" Ye Chen was thrilled. The Golden Core stage was a watershed; only by reaching it could one be considered a true powerhouse. With his strength at the Golden Core stage, Ye Chen could easily deal with cultivators.

Ye Chen continued to cultivate until the next morning. He returned to his room and found Shen Mengqin already awake.

"Ye Chen, you're back!" Shen Mengqin said happily.

Ye Chen nodded and said, "Sister Shen, how do you feel?"

Shen Mengqin smiled and said, "Ye Chen, I feel much better!"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "That's good!"

Ye Chen and Shen Mengqin had breakfast together. After breakfast, Ye Chen said, "Sister Shen, I'm going to the Immortal Realm today."

Shen Mengqin was surprised, her eyes filled with confusion. "The Immortal Realm?"

Ye Chen nodded and said, "Sister Shen, the Immortal Realm is a mysterious place, and there are many cultivators there."

Shen Mengqin asked, "Ye Chen, what are you going to do in the Immortal Realm?"

Ye Chen said, "Sister Shen, I'm going to find some medicinal herbs."

Shen Mengqin nodded and said, "Ye Chen, be careful!"

Ye Chen smiled and left the medical clinic.

Ye Chen arrived in the Immortal Realm and found no difference between it and the Human Realm. There were mortals and cultivators in the Immortal Realm too. Ye Chen found a market and began to search for medicinal herbs. The medicinal herbs in the Immortal Realm were very precious, and Ye Chen quickly found the ones he needed. He bought some medicinal herbs and prepared to leave the Immortal Realm.

Just then, a voice called out, "Stop!"

Ye Chen turned his head and saw a young man approaching. The young man wore luxurious clothes and had an arrogant look in his eyes. This young man was Li Tian, the young master of a prominent family in the Immortal Realm.

Li Tian came up to Ye Chen and said coldly, "Kid, I like the medicinal herbs in your hand. Name your price!"

A hint of disdain flashed in Ye Chen's eyes. "I'm not selling!" Ye Chen said calmly.

Li Tian's face changed, and he roared, "Kid, how dare you refuse to sell to me? No one has ever dared to refuse to sell something I, Li Tian, fancy!"

Ye Chen sneered, "Is that so? I'd like to see what you can do!"

Li Tian's eyes blazed with fury as he roared at Ye Chen, "Kid, you're asking for death!" He swung his fist and charged directly at Ye Chen. Li Tian was very powerful, having already reached the Golden Core stage. However, he was no match for Ye Chen.

A dull thud echoed, and Li Tian's body flew out like a kite with a broken string. Li Tian fell to the ground, groaning in pain.

Ye Chen glanced at Li Tian, his eyes filled with disdain. "Overestimating yourself!"

Ye Chen left the market and returned to the Human Realm.
