Ms. Doctor Divine

The first time they met, Di Hongyun had misunderstood Gu Chaoyan, which had led to his prolonged dislike of her. She had appeared arrogant and persistently declined his advances. Back then, Di Hongyun had been a lively and outgoing person.

As time passed, he had transformed into someone who often appeared simple-minded and sincere, frequently displaying genuine happiness.

However, the current Di Hongyun bore an expressionless countenance, marked by stiffness and disappointment. It was the first time Gu Chaoyan had seen him in such a state. It seemed like he had once again misinterpreted something.

This was why Gu Chaoyan wished for him to focus on his cultivation. She also suspected that he might believe she was leaving him behind.

Nevertheless…

Perhaps this change was beneficial for him. It would allow him to concentrate on his practice without distractions and form deeper connections with others, rather than being excessively innocent and trusting, which could be a significant disadvantage.

He could remain on Wuyuan Island to cultivate.

Sighing, Gu Chaoyan turned to Di Hongyun and gave his shoulder a reassuring pat. “Keep up with your practice.”

Before departing, she left a few bottles of pills on the table. These pills were crafted from Green Sun Grass and could greatly aid in cultivation.

Besides giving some to the Head of the Undead Race, Gu Chaoyan rarely used them herself. She hoped that these pills would assist Di Hongyun in advancing his cultivation.

As she walked away, the sound of pills dropping onto the ground reached her ears.

He…

Gu Chaoyan didn’t look back but continued on her way. Her expression remained unchanged, but the Head of the Undead Race could sense her somber mood. She had once been devoid of emotions, but now, that was no longer the case. She must have been feeling quite unhappy.

The Head of the Undead Race chuckled, but to his surprise, his laughter fell flat.

In frustration, he snapped, “Idiot, he’s truly an idiot. He can’t see that Lv Zhengyang is a scheming person, and he can’t see that you’re doing all of this for his own good. I can’t fathom how he made it into the sect and grew up here.”

“Let’s just leave him be,” he finally uttered.

“With me by your side, you won’t have to worry about a thing in the future,” the Head of the Undead Race awkwardly consoled.

He, the Head of the Undead Race, had never offered consolation to anyone before—unless he was masquerading as a human.

Annoyance surged through him as he reluctantly pampered this cunning girl.

Yet…

His unease stemmed from his own predicament. The other sects were poised to attack the counterfeit Undead Race in Xuhai City, and if they succeeded, Xuhai City would be his. With control over Xuhai City, there would be no reason for him to trail behind her. He would remain in Xuhai City, regaining his millennia-old cultivation.

But what about Gu Chaoyan? Di Hongyun was no longer at her side. What was she to do?

The Head of the Undead Race found himself in a quandary.

Suddenly, he contemplated the source of his worries. Were it not for her coercion, he wouldn’t have ended up in this situation.

Well, well, well.

This wicked woman could thrive independently. She had never been humiliated by anyone; instead, she had always been the one to humiliate others..
