The Strongest Prodigy Doctor

Chapter 932 - 1032: An Old Acquaintance Appears Unexpectedly

"Then what are we supposed to do? Is there a back door here? If we want to get in, we can only either force our way in or disguise ourselves. But if we go with disguise, the success rate is way too low. Who knows if they've set up some extra passwords or something? Just a few interrogation techniques would be enough to expose all of us. By then they could catch us like turtles in a jar, and we'd be completely wiped out." Ye Tianfan let out a sigh as he spoke."Maybe I have another way!" Senior Brother Yun Tian spoke up.

When Ye Tianfan and the others heard what Senior Brother Yun Tian said, they looked at him in confusion, not knowing what method he was talking about.

Without waiting for them to ask, Senior Brother Yun Tian directly said, "I didn't come here early just to freeload meals all this time. Aside from observing this Xuanqian Cave, I also captured a Gatekeeper!"

"You captured a Gatekeeper?" Ye Tianfan frowned when he heard that, then said, "Doesn't that mean you've already been exposed here as well?"

"Of course not!" Senior Brother Yun Tian shook his head, then said, "That Gatekeeper wasn't grabbed directly from the entrance. He had another mission and left here to go some distance away, and that's when I nabbed him!"

"Oh?" Hearing this, Ye Tianfan was quite surprised, then immediately asked, "So, Senior Brother Yun Tian, did you get anything out of him?"

Senior Brother Yun Tian smiled at Ye Tianfan's words, then said, "Of course. Of course I got something. I've already extracted their password, but I didn't manage to get anything about the restrictions, because he's just a Gatekeeper and has nothing to do with the restrictions deeper inside the tunnel. All he knows is that there are at least four large-scale restrictions beyond the entrance. Which means, if we force our way in, we'll have to face at least four large-scale restrictions. And according to that Gatekeeper, the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji comes here often, and if you count the time, it's already been half a month since he last came. In other words, from this moment on, he might show up at any time!"

When Ye Tianfan heard the name of the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji, he fell silent. After all, he had just seen him not long ago, and really didn't want to see him again. Because Ye Tianfan did not believe he could be that lucky every time, that every time Zhang Youji would just happen to let him go. If this time he saw him and happened to recall the failure of the Dark Four Sacred Beasts plan last time, it wouldn't be impossible for him to kill Ye Tianfan on the spot. The reason Demon Sect people were called Demons, after all, was because they were moody and unpredictable!

If not for the mission, Ye Tianfan really didn't want to provoke the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji. At least not before he had the strength to stand against the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji.

Just as Ye Tianfan and the others were still discussing how to enter Xuanqian Cave, they suddenly noticed a few more streaks of light appear in the sky. And from very far away, Ye Tianfan could already feel the Demonic Qi radiating from those streaks of light!

Ye Tianfan hastily signaled everyone to get down, to avoid being seen by those people!

After the few of them lay flat, they looked toward the entrance of Xuanqian Cave. After all, those people exuding Demonic Qi were definitely headed for Xuanqian Cave!

Moreover, Ye Tianfan clearly sensed a familiar aura among them—that of the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji. Speak of Cao Cao and Cao Cao appears… how could he bump into him everywhere he went? Would it kill him to come a few days later? Couldn't he wait until Ye Tianfan finished the mission before coming?

And with the arrival of the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji, Ye Tianfan and the others also knew their mission would have to be postponed. As for how long, that would depend on when the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji left!

When those beams of light landed at the entrance of Xuanqian Cave, Ye Tianfan and the others craned their necks toward the cave, wanting to see who else had come here besides the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji!

But once Ye Tianfan saw clearly who had arrived—while the four Li Dehong brothers didn't react much, since they didn't know any of them and hadn't even seen the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji before—Ye Tianfan and Senior Brother Yun Tian were utterly shocked!

It wasn't that the newcomers were particularly strong, but that Ye Tianfan and Senior Brother Yun Tian saw a person who had long since died. And that person's death had been confirmed during the very first mission Ye Tianfan and Senior Brother Yun Tian had collaborated on. That person was Tian Chun of the Celestial Fragrance Sect.

Not to mention that the Celestial Fragrance Sect had already been annihilated by that organization, and Tian Chun had long ago been confirmed dead by Ye Tianfan and Senior Brother Yun Tian!

Yet now Tian Chun appeared alive right in front of them. Though he had changed dramatically—his entire body was filled with Demonic Qi, his face looked like it was covered in heavy smoky makeup, with the area around both eyes completely black, and faint black mist seeping out from his eyes. His clothing style had also shifted toward something more gloomy and androgynous!

Seeing Tian Chun's arrival, Ye Tianfan and Senior Brother Yun Tian glanced at each other, each seeing the disbelief in the other's eyes.

"Th-this… this is Tian Chun? Wasn't he already dead?" Senior Brother Yun Tian whispered.

"I want to know too. I also want to know how he came back to life. He was clearly already dead before." Ye Tianfan stared fixedly at Tian Chun as he spoke.

And as if Tian Chun somehow knew someone was watching him, he glanced over in Ye Tianfan's direction!

Ye Tianfan and the others hurriedly ducked their heads the moment Tian Chun turned.

After that major incident with that organization, they could more or less accept things like resurrection, rebirth, not dying or being destroyed. But they knew Tian Chun's situation had nothing to do with that organization, and the method by which Tian Chun had come back to life definitely wasn't the same one that organization used to resurrect people!

All of a sudden, Ye Tianfan thought that perhaps at that time Tian Chun hadn't actually died, but had fallen into a state of feigned death. Then, when the Demon Sect was handling the aftermath, they discovered Tian Chun, and Tian Chun thus defected to the Demon Sect!

After all, Tian Chun had a prior record of defecting to the Demon Sect, so Ye Tianfan wasn't surprised at all that he'd join the Demon Sect again!

What Ye Tianfan and Senior Brother Yun Tian were surprised about was how exactly he had stayed alive. Could it be that he really hadn't died back then?

If he hadn't died and had been taken in by the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji, then the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji's behavior was somewhat out of line. Tian Chun's "death" was something that happened before the major incident with that organization, about four or five years ago.

Before that major incident broke out, it was understandable for the Demon Realm Leader Zhang Youji to take Tian Chun in. But after that incident, when everyone was supposed to be united as one, he actually kept this matter hidden. It wasn't that he would have suffered any consequences if he'd spoken up.

Even if at that time he had laid it all out openly, not only would the Taichu Sect have done nothing to him, even the Celestial Fragrance Sect wouldn't have caused him trouble. Yet the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji chose to keep it buried. Taking the initiative to speak up and being exposed by others are two very different things.

Besides, by then the Celestial Fragrance Sect had already been wiped out; there would have been even less of an issue if he'd spoken up!
