Adorable treasured fox: Divine doctor mother overturning the heavens! Chapter 1008 - Breaking into the Celestial Rank (2)

Chapter 1008 “Breaking into the Celestial Rank (2)”
“What solution do you have in mind Lord Chu Ran?” After stabilizing his mood, Bai Chang Feng asks with a deep concern in his old voice.
“Gather your elite disciples and remaining elders here. We will transfer them to the Holy Island.”
“Why?” asked the old grandpa with a perplexed look.
“It’s because one of my forefathers left behind a protective barrier around this island here. It’s able to resist the attacks of a Celestial Rank for several days. That should be enough time for the reinforcements to arrive….”
Regarding the barrier around this Holy Island, not even Chu Yi Yi (daughter) was aware of it, that’s how much emphasis the Holy Lord had for Bai Yan when he gave her this place.
“But what about the others?” Bai Chang Feng laments a sigh, knowing full well what it meant for the less important members.
Gritting his teeth, one could literally hear the hardness in Lord Chu Ran’s voice: “I cannot watch over that many people so retaining our main fighting force is the upmost importance. Only by having the seeds protected will we be able to confront those from the Spirit Realm in the future…” Settling down to get his act together, “They will have to hide at the heart of the Abyss (forest) with those demonic beasts.”
Bai Chang Feng and Chief Wu Wei both got it now. The man was gambling, gambling that the Spirit Realm wouldn’t dare to openly attack the members of the Demon Realm. Sure, demonic beasts aren’t capable of taking on human form yet, likely never will in their lifetime here in the human world, but they are still considered part of the Demon Realm. If they’re slaughtered as well, it’s bound to start a large-scale war for the transgression.
“I have noticed it through that Liu Qing Yu’s attitude from before, they’re extremely cautious of the Demon Realm. I’ve confirmed this fact from the old texts in my treasury. Demons haven’t always been so weak here in the mainland, in fact, they were feared and often avoided due to the protection provided by the Demon Realm thousands of years ago. The situation only changed after the various realms were sealed. So, I’m betting, betting on those people not daring to enact the same carnage they wish to carry out on us to those living in the Abyss.” Chu Ran carefully explains his reasoning, believing its logical and a good choice considering the circumstances they have to work with.
“Very well, we will do as you say,” muttered the Medicine lord. “However, I will need to trouble you to bring my disciples over from the Medicine Sect. I still have other things I must do.”
“What’s the matter?”
“I’m going to pick up the Lan House!” Making a faint smile, the Medicine Lord didn’t bother to hide his wish: “They are the only ones who didn’t abandon Yan’er during her time of need, for that, I must keep them safe for her sake. I cannot allow my granddaughter to lose another family member. I know this will take up more room on the island, that’s why I’m willing to subtract a couple of spots from my side to accommodate that family.”
Chu Ran actually gawked his mouth in surprise before issuing a long sigh with his head shaking.
Taking that as his way of not agreeing, Chief Wu Wei immediately grew hurried like his counterpart: “If not, we can subtract some spots from my Misty Fairy House. The Lan family must be able to hide inside the Holy Island!”
Making a bittersweet smile of his own, Lord Chu Ran decides to stop teasing the two: “Let’s stop arguing, I never said I won’t agree, I’m just lamenting how lucky the Lan family is. If they didn’t have such a wonderful granddaughter, they might not make it through this peril….” Though the face showed a willingness to help, but the eyes were that of worry, “If we work fast starting from today, I’m sure we will be able to accommodate over three thousand people on this island. As for the Lan family, they’re only a few of them, they can’t take up much room.”
The promise elevated the tenseness in the two grandfather’s posture and even changed Bai Chang Feng’s former opinion of the Holy Lord.
“But…” Chu Ran continues, “in order to keep Bai Yan from being disturbed, I will still keep the surrounding area around the gate off limits to the disciples and elders.”
