Divine Doctor Mommy Is A True Big Shot-Chapter 186 - 188: A Rage for a Beauty’s Sake

"Search!"

In the darkness of the night, multiple figures flitted up and down like bats against the night sky.

Countless torches illuminated the vast plains like stars, turning the night into day.

Footsteps sounded from afar, drawing closer.

The clashing sounds of armor and scabbards shattered the peaceful silence of the night.

Hundreds of miles to the northwest of Great Chu, several powerful nations were at loggerheads over a few pieces of stone.

Large armies were stationed within a ten-mile radius, with frequent battles resulting in rivers of blood, and patches of soil stained red.

The wind carried the lingering smell of blood.

All of this, for the sole purpose of obtaining Heavenly Stone.

Soldiers scoured the surrounding area, with the sound of barking dogs heard near and far.

Hidden beneath seemingly undisturbed soil, Gong Zhu lay concealed like a mole.

The bloodstained earth masked his scent.

His breath had all but stopped.

Men and dogs passed overhead, unaware of his presence.

"The Heavenly Stone has been stolen, a Heavenly Iron piece as big as a palm, yet it cost the blood of 3,000 of our soldiers and the tireless effort of thirty magicians. Damn it, just stolen like that; if I find that thief..."

A burly general spat on the ground in disgust.

This was the National Guard General of the Canglan Dynasty, who, along with other nations, had fought a bloody battle to finally obtain a stone weighing over a hundred pounds. Magicians had refined it for three days and nights before obtaining a piece of Heavenly Iron.

Yet unexpectedly, on this very night, both his soldiers and magicians suddenly fell ill with vomiting and diarrhea. By the time they came to their senses, the piece of Heavenly Iron had vanished without a trace.

Someone had seen a figure running out of the Alchemy Workshop.

But in the blink of an eye, the person had disappeared.

A hunting dog furiously barked at the ground.

The general looked down and furrowed his brows.

"Dig three feet into the ground if we must, but we cannot let that thief get away tonight."

Burrowed in the ground, Gong Zhu’s expression changed.

Days ago, he had returned to Xingxiu Sect from Great Chu.

"Gong Zhu, you’ve really made something of yourself, killing three of your sect brothers and more than a dozen subordinates who pursued you. Yet you still have the face to come see me."

The elderly man sitting on the master’s throne had wrinkles like pine bark, one piled upon another.

His hair had long turned white, and though he appeared to be of an advanced age, his eyes shone with an undiminished gleam of intensity as he stared at Gong Zhu.

Gong Zhu was one of a hundred orphans he had chosen.

During the years of war, there were many children left homeless, both boys and girls. Gong Zhu had been picked at first glance.

Not for his outstanding looks, but because when the Evil of Constellation pointed to a horse that had been dead for days, instructing the starving children to feed on it, all but Gong Zhu hesitated. Like a wolf cub catching the scent of blood, he pounced without hesitation.

The maggot-infested rotting flesh became a delicacy in his mouth.

He ate a horse’s leg without so much as a wrinkle on his brow.

In the years that followed, Gong Zhu became the sharpest knife in the hands of the Evil of Constellation.

He was the quickest to form the Wuji Seal and the most aloof of the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha.

There was a time when the Evil of Constellation thought Gong Zhu would forever be his loyal right-hand man.

But at some point, this arm started to twist outward, away from him.

"Sect Master, Gong Zhu accepts his punishment."

Gong Zhu knelt, his face more enchanting than a woman’s, neither servile nor overbearing.

"I heard you’ve found a lover in Chu City?"

Gong Zhu’s spine stiffened.

"A discarded shoe that you regard as a treasure. Gong Zhu, you’ve truly disappointed me."

Gong Zhu found it hard to breathe.

"I heard she has good medical skills, but I don’t know if her skills can save her own life."

The intelligence network of Evil of Constellation was even sharper than he had imagined.

He lifted his gaze, his eyes not filled with rage, just an icy coldness.

Yet from those eyes, Evil of Constellation saw a hint of something unusual.

Between Evil of Constellation’s eyebrows, the dazzling "Wood" character shone like a bright star, stinging Gong Zhu’s eyes, and Gong Zhu lowered his crow-black lashes.

A palm wind was about to descend.

"Sect Master, I am willing to atone for my sins by stealing the Heavenly Stone. I only ask that the Sect Master forgive my past wrongdoings."

The three words "Heavenly Stone" were like a stone thrown into a lake.

A single stone provoked a thousand ripples.

Evil of Constellation’s violent Gang Qi instantly solidified.

The Heavenly Stone was currently the hottest treasure on the Sky Blue Continent.

Countless Wuji Experts wanted to obtain it.

Evil of Constellation was no exception.

Although he was an expert with the Wuji Wood Seal, he was old, and his cultivation had been stagnating for many years. Seeing younger generations like Dugu Wu and Xiao Junci emerging, his anxiety was also increasing over time.

If he had the Heavenly Stone, it would be different.

He could use the Heavenly Iron extracted from the Heavenly Stone to slit Dugu Wu’s throat and chop off Xiao Junci’s head.

However, those he had sent out, one by one, never returned.

Armies from several countries had surrounded the area containing the Heavenly Stone, making it impenetrable.

Even for the Xingxiu Sect, it was difficult to make a move.

"Are you willing to go?"

Evil of Constellation lowered his gaze, staring at Gong Zhu.

"I am willing to risk my life to try."

The scene changed, Gong Zhu listened as the soil above was dug open, rain-like footsteps moving back and forth overhead.

Gong Zhu touched the flask tied to his waist.

Inside was the alcohol given to him by Feng Bailing.

Feng Bailing said, the drink was called Rainbow Five Treasures Brew, which could momentarily greatly increase his cultivation.

Even though the effect could only last for about a quarter of an hour.

But a quarter of an hour was already enough.

A sinister look flashed across Gong Zhu’s handsome face.

He touched his own face; his fingertips felt a withered, sagging face, and long hair graying at the shoulders.

Boom—

The ground suddenly exploded.

A figure soared up like a gray hawk, arms outstretched.

In the distance and nearby, countless lights illuminated the thief emerging from underground.

It was an old man with a hunched back, in his hands, he held a piece of grayish-black Heavenly Iron.

"It’s Evil of Constellation!"

Under the glow of the fire, the National Guard General saw the thief’s face clearly, the "Wood" character on his forehead particularly bright.

The opponent swung out both palms, green toxic fog accompanied by terrifying Gang Qi.

Indeed, it was Evil of Constellation.

Around him, several soldiers vomited blood and fell, their bodies dissolving into a pool of pus.

"All troops, listen to my command, Evil of Constellation has stolen Heavenly Iron, our nation swears to kill Evil of Constellation."

"All troops, listen to my command, Evil of Constellation has destroyed our Heavenly Stone, our dynasty swears to kill Evil of Constellation."

"..."

In the darkness of the night, roars of anger resounded everywhere.

Almost overnight, Evil of Constellation became the target of several nations’ manhunts.

Until a few days later, Evil of Constellation’s head was taken, and he met King Yama prematurely—little did he know, his early encounter with death would be at the hands of the ungrateful wolf he himself had raised.
