Chapter 86

In the world of cultivation, there is a legendary sect!

This sect always has a single lineage, and each generation will produce a peak Foundation Establishment cultivator who ultimately becomes the invincible supreme being under heaven.

Each single heir of this sect possesses extraordinary talent, and the depth of their lineage, passed down from generation to generation, is something outsiders can't even fathom.

Yet, this sect is peculiarly centered around medical arts, as if everything else is merely auxiliary.

But precisely because of their medical arts, no one dares to offend them. After all, people are subject to birth, aging, illness, and death, and even cultivators are no exception.

And this sect is the Immortal Physician Sect!

A sect filled with mystery and awe!

Gufen is the Sect Master of the Immortal Physician Sect!

Duan Jingyuan and Di Wenfeng were understandably shocked by this outcome.

"Gufen, is this, is this true?" Duan Jingyuan stammered.

"Captain Duan, is it possible to forge the Immortal Physician Sect's Sect Master token? And, to put it bluntly, who would dare to forge the Immortal Physician Sect's Sect Master token?" Gufen said proudly.

Gufen spoke with pride, but Duan Jingyuan and Di Wenfeng deeply agreed!

In fact, the reason Qin Jintian didn't dare to forcibly detain Gufen earlier was largely due to the deterrent power of the Immortal Physician Sect. It wasn't just the fake talisman that played a role.

Duan Jingyuan finally understood what Gufen meant by unwillingness and inability.

Sect Master of the Immortal Physician Sect, what a status! Even if Gufen hasn't fully grown yet, he has the Immortal Physician Sect behind him! Could the Red Team Leader of the Special Operations Bureau's Donghai City Branch command the Sect Master of the Immortal Physician Sect? Or the Branch Director? Or even the Director of the Special Operations Bureau? No, they couldn't!

Moreover, while the Special Operations Bureau has had some success in recruiting disciples from various sects, it would be impossible to recruit a sect's Sect Master.

"Master Gufen! I have offended you!" Duan Jingyuan returned the token to Gufen, bowed, and apologized.

In terms of influence, Gufen just needed to reveal his identity, and this was something Duan Jingyuan couldn't compare to.

"Captain Duan, you're too kind. I hope you and Deputy Captain Di can keep my identity confidential..." Gufen smiled bitterly and waved his hand, saying, "Let's say I misspoke, but I ask you not to publicize it too much, okay?"

"Thank you, Master Gufen, for your understanding!" Duan Jingyuan and Di Wenfeng, being in the Special Operations Bureau, knew that not reporting such information would be a violation of discipline.

"Alright, then I'll take my leave!" Gufen said with a smile.

"Master Gufen!" Di Wenfeng said seriously, "With your status, I understand why you're not afraid of the Righteous Martial Sect. However, you need to understand the mindset of someone who has reached the peak and can no longer advance. They might be normal, but they might also be twisted. I hope Master Gufen can be more cautious!"

"Right, Deputy Captain Di, Captain Duan, I'm very curious. What's the situation with the expert from the Righteous Martial Sect you mentioned?" Gufen asked curiously.

"Master Gufen, how to put it, this person is a disciple of the Righteous Martial Sect. He failed in the competition for the Sect Master position in the past and was pursued. He eventually escaped. After enduring for over thirty years, he returned to the Righteous Martial Sect, having reached the peak of the Innate Realm. He then caused a great upheaval in the Righteous Martial Sect, slaughtering all the disciples who had driven him away. He re-established his lineage within the Righteous Martial Sect and then left quietly! He didn't even mention rejoining the Righteous Martial Sect. The Righteous Martial Sect's strength was severely weakened by this massacre. Gradually, people assumed he no longer cared about the Righteous Martial Sect. So, when conflicts arose with the Righteous Martial Sect, they became more bold. Eventually, a sect had a major conflict with the Righteous Martial Sect and severely injured it... Then, this person reappeared, wiping out all the experts of the opposing sect in one night. This shocked the entire martial world. Even after disappearing again, the deterrent power he brought remained. The Righteous Martial Sect no longer dared to offend anyone excessively!" Duan Jingyuan said with a bitter smile, "And you killed the Righteous Martial Sect's Third Elder and declared that you would destroy the Righteous Martial Sect. This will almost certainly provoke that person..."

Gufen frowned slightly.

Gufen understood the meaning behind Duan Jingyuan's words.

A peak Innate Realm martial artist is already terrifying. But it's not particularly frightening, as he's not the only expert in the world.

What is truly terrifying and frightening is that this person seems to be very protective of his own. Being protective is one thing, but he is also extremely bloodthirsty!

He even dared to kill Righteous Martial Sect disciples, causing the sect's strength to drop significantly. This person is not only resolute but also indifferent to grudges... In summary, this person is very terrifying.

Once you completely offend him or he considers you an enemy, the consequences will be unimaginable!

Gufen finally understood why Duan Jingyuan and Di Wenfeng had tried so hard to dissuade him earlier.

They were genuinely well-intentioned.

However, even if he had known all this beforehand, Gufen would not have shown any mercy!

Some things must be done. Even if there are mountains of knives and seas of fire ahead, it's the same. Not to mention, there's just a possibility of a peak Innate Realm martial artist appearing here.

However, Gufen didn't dare to be careless.

Thinking about the life-saving resources his master had given him, which he had hidden away out of laziness, was truly inappropriate.

If he had to call upon his master to solve problems, Gufen would be the most failed and unfilial Sect Master of the Immortal Physician Sect!

Because once the Immortal Physician Sect disciples in the secluded tomb are awakened, they will only have ten days left to live!

"Thank you, Captain Duan, for telling me this!" Gufen took a deep breath and bowed, saying, "In the future, if there's anything I can help with, just let me know!"

"Great!" Duan Jingyuan's face lit up. This was a promise from the Sect Master of the Immortal Physician Sect! It was invaluable. In critical moments, it could save lives.

This society is very stable and harmonious. But this is just the surface.

In reality, various struggles never cease behind the scenes.

This even involves various levels.

At the level of the Special Operations Bureau, the struggles are the most intense.

Therefore, many people in the Special Operations Bureau often get injured.

However, the injuries of these ancient martial artists, psychics, and cultivators in the Special Operations Bureau are not treatable by ordinary hospitals. The internal treatments of the Special Operations Bureau are also limited.

This has led to many excellent and loyal members of the Special Operations Bureau ultimately dying due to lack of treatment!

It's truly heartbreaking!

But with Gufen's promise, if he can be called upon when necessary, there might be a glimmer of hope.

Even if one out of ten can be saved, it would be a great blessing for the Special Operations Bureau.

Gufen drove away.

Duan Jingyuan and Di Wenfeng watched Gufen's car until it was out of sight, then they exchanged a glance.

Neither of them had expected that such a high-level recruitment effort would end up like this.

But thinking about it, with Gufen's promise and the fact that he will likely be more involved in Donghai City in the future, this gain is even more significant than recruiting a powerful cultivator!

"Captain, let's report this!" Di Wenfeng said with a smile, "The Team Leader will be very pleased. Our First Team will finally have a chance to shine! The Second and Third Teams will only be envious!"

"Not just the Team Leader! The Director will be so happy he won't be able to sleep. Sect Master of the Immortal Physician Sect... what a status! Moreover, the Immortal Physician Sect has always been in a state of seclusion. It's rare to see someone like Gufen walking the world. This is our opportunity!" Duan Jingyuan said solemnly, "No, I must inform the Team Leader and the Director about Gufen's conflict with the Righteous Martial Sect and see if they can offer some help!"

"Captain, isn't the Immortal Physician Sect very powerful? Although they are said to have a single lineage, what about the previous Sect Master? He was definitely at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage. A peak Foundation Establishment cultivator killing a peak Innate Realm martial artist is no big deal, right? Why should we worry?" Di Wenfeng asked in confusion.

"You don't understand! If you were in his shoes, would you prefer more trouble or less?" Duan Jingyuan asked with a smile.

"Of course, less is better," Di Wenfeng sighed, "Fighting and killing all the time, living in constant fear, I've forgotten what peace feels like!"

"Exactly. If we can help Gufen and reduce his troubles, won't his goodwill towards us increase?" Duan Jingyuan said with a smile, "If we can improve our relationship with Gufen, what benefits would it bring to our First Team? Not dying, no matter how severe the injury, being able to save lives? Oh, just thinking about it makes me shudder... How many good young men have we lost? If they were still here..."

Di Wenfeng's eyes also sparkled with a brilliant light.

In this line of work, executing one mission after another, sacrifices are inevitable.

But if sacrifices can be avoided, who would want them? Seeing one comrade after another close their eyes forever is a pain that can drive one to despair!

"Captain, can the Team Leader and the Director really help?" Di Wenfeng was skeptical. After all, that existence from the Righteous Martial Sect is too powerful and too ruthless.

If such a person goes out of control and targets the Special Operations Bureau, it would be a disaster!

While the Special Operations Bureau has enough power to eliminate this person, what if he plays guerrilla warfare?

Imagine a peak Innate Realm martial artist playing guerrilla warfare against the Special Operations Bureau, which has a vast network. This person is also extremely ruthless. The thought of this made Duan Jingyuan and Di Wenfeng shudder.

"That's not for us to consider. We've presented the opportunity. Whether they can seize it is up to the Team Leader and the Director!" Duan Jingyuan said with a smile.
