Unrivaled Medicine God, page 133
Even the sect master did not grasp the Azure Dipper Purple Yang True Intent. Ye Yuan already grasped it at this age?
No wonder he could lift something heavy like it was light when fighting Zhang Jing.
"Then Senior Apprentice Brother mean that . . . Tian Yu and Tang Yu-er are in danger this time?"
Ti Wujiu shook his head and said, "I don't know about that. Tian Yu and Tang Yu-er are both people who are outstandingly talented, and their realms are so much higher than Ye Yuan's realm. They naturally have the strength to battle it out. What I want to see now is . . . what method Tian Yu will use to fight with Ye Yuan when he's being suppressed in terms of Sword Dao!"
Cheng Wu was speechless. He originally thought that Ye Yuan was a soft persimmon who is easy to knead. Now, it seemed like nobody was a soft persimmon!
Cheng Wu was aware of Sui Liang's strength. Without any accidents, the top three would be Tian Yu, Tang Yu-er and Ye Yuan.
Except, this final ranking was not easy to determine.
Tian Yu who seemed to be the most promising at first had lesser advantages than Tang Yu-er now.
Cheng Wu felt somewhat in a mess.
. . . . . .
On the platform, Tang Yu-er was dressed in a fiery-red fine gauze but appeared lofty and proud.
That unparalleled appearance did not lose to the Nanfeng aunt and niece.
However, those underestimate her because she was a peerless beauty would definitely suffer a huge loss!
In the previous grand competition, Tian Yu once suffered a huge loss in Tang Yu-er's hands and was nearly defeated!
Tang Yu-er looked at Ye Yuan who was opposite coldly and said, "Ye Yuan, you're indeed very strong! But, you'll stop here!"
Ye Yuan was stunned when he heard that. He did not think that Tang Yu-er would be so overbearing right after coming up.
"Haha, not only is Senior Apprentice Sister beautiful, but this aura is also so imposing!" Ye Yuan said with a laugh.
Tang Yu-er's face grew colder. Her impression of Ye Yuan became even worse. "Humph! Lecher! I'll definitely make a fool out of you later!"
Tang Yu-er's heart was higher than the heavens. Ordinary disciples did not even enter her eyes. Therefore, there were many people who secretly had a crush on her, but not many who confessed their feelings.
There was once somebody who was beaten up until he had to lie on the bed for two months after confessing to her. Ever since then, everyone could only put their affection and admiration away in their hearts.
Ye Yuan calling her beautiful right after coming up naturally made her put him in the same category as lechers.
Ye Yuan laughed in spite of himself and said, "Senior Apprentice Sister is as beautiful as a flower, but won't let others praise you. Isn't it an insult to your beauty?"
Tang Yu-er flew into a great rage when she heard that. "Humph! Indeed a conceited and insolent person! I hope that you can still laugh in a while!"
Chapter 269. Crossing Swords with Illusions! |
"To dare take liberties with Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er like this, Ye Yuan's guts are really fat!"
"Hehe, he has the strength. He might even be thinking of taking this opportunity to court Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er!"
"Speaking of which, the two of them, their ages and strength are around the same. It's really a perfect match between an able man and a fair maiden! Furthermore, with Ye Yuan's potential, he'll definitely surpass Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er in the future. If they were to become a pair, it would become a story that will be passed down!"
"Bah! Is that snotty brat Ye Yuan even good enough for Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er?"
"Haha, you're envying and hating out of jealousy, right? I know that you've had a crush on Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er for a very long time already!"
". . . . . ."
Actually, Ye Yuan was just purely praising. He did not think to incur Tang Yu-er's wrath.
But the way the other disciples saw it, Ye Yuan's words like this were already blatant flirtation. It was just that Ye Yuan's strength stood head and shoulders above all others, so he obviously had the qualifications to pursue Tang Yu-er.
However, those disciples who had been secretly crushing on Tang Yu-er for a long time were naturally very displeased by this.
Once the battle began, Tang Yu-er's red ribbon shot towards Ye Yuan to tangle him up.
Relying on Spirit Void Shattering Space, Ye Yuan's speed was no longer beneath late-stage Spirit Condensation Realm martial artists!
Seeing the red ribbon snaking over, he easily evaded with a flash.
But right then, Ye Yuan only felt his head sink, his entire body becoming sluggish.
Divine soul mystic arts!
Ye Yuan did not think that Tang Yu-er's trump card was actually a divine soul mystic art!
"Heh heh, Ye Yuan fell for it as expected! Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er is the strongest at illusionary arts. In the last grand competition, even Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu fell for it and nearly lost."
"Ye Yuan has been enjoying too much success recently. He most likely didn't inquire about Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er's trump card! Under the same realm, virtually nobody can escape from Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er's illusions. Ye Yuan is only at the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm; only a minor stage lower than Yu-er in divine soul realm. He's doomed!"
"Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er was already furious earlier, she'll most definitely be ruthless to Ye Yuan! Even if she doesn't screw with him until he becomes an idiot, he can't escape lying in bed for several days!"
"Haha, if Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er really has vicious intent, perhaps Senior Apprentice Brother Sui Liang still has a possibility for entering the top three!"
On the platform, Tang Yu-er and Ye Yuan both stopped moving. Ye Yuan's eyes became vacant holes as if his soul was charmed.
Tang Yu-er closed her eyes however and did not move a muscle too.
Ye Yuan only felt his mind sink just now, but his entire person was brought to a different place.
. . . . . .
In the secular world, Ye Yuan became a wealthy family's scion. A graceful and beautiful body appeared in front of his eyes.
The girl in front of him was beautiful to the extreme, but not a trace of clothing was on her!
That body which made people nosebleed could make any man go berserk.
Ye Yuan looked at the attire he was wearing and back at the nude woman on the other side, and could not help shaking his head and laughing.
This Tang Yu-er really took him to be an extremely perverted lecher.
'Young Master, let this Servant serve you in bed."
The woman's sweet melodious voice rung beside Ye Yuan's ear. A pair of water snake like jade arms twined around Ye Yuan's neck. It was exceedingly alluring.
Ye Yuan was not some sage. In front of a genuine beauty, he would naturally show the reaction that a man should display.
Except that Tang Yu-er employing illusions in front of Ye Yuan was kind of like playing with a large saber in front of Guan Yu.
Illusionary arts were actually an important branch of divine soul mystic arts. Its power was extremely great and could kill people imperceptibly.
Illusionary arts were similarly a Great Dao. When cultivated to the limits, it could transform the foul and rotten into the rare and ethereal!
Powerful illusionary martial artists could kill their foes undetectably and also make the other party fall into an illusionary realm forever, becoming a living corpse!
What's more, the other party would be fully aware that they were inside an illusion world but could not escape no matter what!
This sort of endless sinking was sometimes scarier than killing the opponent!
If the caster did not release the illusion, the other party would never wake from the illusion, just like a samsara cycle, all the way until death!
The first time Ye Yuan laid eyes on this woman, he knew what Tang Yu-er was trying to do.
She wanted to make him immerse himself in the embrace of women inside the illusion and be unable to extricate himself!
Once he wallowed in the pleasures of the flesh, the Ye Yuan in the real world would also do some repulsive actions.
If that happened, Ye Yuan would become the joke of the entire sect.
One had to say that this move by Tang Yu-er was certainly quite vicious. If Ye Yuan really succumbed to it, then no matter how talented he was, he would have no face to stay on in the sect after this.
Women had always been incomprehensible creatures. Ye Yuan already had a taste of that many times. Although this move by Tang Yu-er was really deriding, Ye Yuan did not get too angry.
But Ye Yuan was not some clay bodhisattva that could be kneaded however others liked.
Ye Yuan decided to prank this Tang Yu-er good. It could be considered her punishment.
Facing the woman's teasing, Ye Yuan grabbed her arm and threw her ruthlessly to one side, saying with a cold sneer, "That won't be necessary! Tell me who sent you here!"
Ye Yuan rebuked with a stern countenance, but the woman kept silent like a cicada in winter. She said weakly, "N-No one! This Servant . . . This Servant only admires young master. That's why . . . That's why I took the initiative to offer my body! If Young Master can't trust this Servant, then I'm willing to apologize with death! Sniff, sniff . . ."
The woman cried pitifully and behaved like she wanted to run into the wall to commit suicide. But Ye Yuan just sneered and said, "Don't pretend to be innocent in front of me! As the successor to the capital's Ye Family, what kind of woman have this Young Master not seen before? How can you pass the test in front of me with your inferior acting? Go and hit! Just ahead!"
That woman really stopped after hearing that.
In the illusion world, Tang Yu-er who was concealed in a covert location secretly sniggered to herself coldly. "Didn't think that this lecher has some capabilities. To actually not fall for it easily! However, you've already taken the place of your identity. Can you still escape from this Young Lady's palm?"
The nude woman put away her seductive expression and wore her garments. She said to Ye Yuan with a smile, "Young Master Ye indeed has great powers of concentration! Actually, I'm under the orders of my family's missus to come and probe Young Master Ye!"
Ye Yuan snickered to himself secretly, but looked doubtful on the surface as he asked, "You family's missus is?"
"My family's missus is the Tang Family's eldest miss. She has long heard that Mister is the number one scholar in the capital and has admired you for a long time. It's just that she doesn't know Mister's nature, that's why she sent me to test Mister. Having met today, Young Master indeed see things as clear as viewing a fire; an extremely wise and far-sighted person!" The woman sighed with admiration.
When Ye Yuan heard that, his expression eased up slightly, but he still pretended to be peeved as he said, "So, it's the Tang Family's eldest miss! This Ye has also long heard that the Tang Family's eldest miss has national beauty and heavenly fragrance, and is even an erudite among women. It's just that your family's missus using this kind of method to test me is really going too far! A fair lady is a gentleman's good mate, but this Ye is absolutely not those profligate and immoral people! Please return and inform Miss Tang that this Ye is unable to enjoy her admiration!"
In secret, Tang Yu-er's face changed when she heard that. If Ye Yuan were really impervious to everything, then her illusion would reveal flaws sooner or later, then Ye Yuan would be able to escape!
Tang Yu-er could not accept such an outcome!
Chapter 270. Quietly Changing Hands |
"Humph! Looks like this lecher is definitely lusting after my looks; that's why he is so indifferent to other people! Since that's the case, this Young Lady will beat him at his own game and play tricks on this lecher!"
Tang Yu-er had absolute faith in her looks and illusion skills. Wasn't it effortless to deal with a young man who was impetuous like Ye Yuan?
It was just that thinking about being taken advantage of by Ye Yuan in the illusion world made Tang Yu-er feel very disgusted even though she in the illusion world was not the real her.
"Please calm your anger, Young Master Ye. My family's missus said that if you can remain unperturbed by a woman in your lap, then the final wariness she has towards you would also be gone. In order to offer an apology, Miss Tang has set up a banquet in the VIP building and invited Young Master Ye to go there," the servant said serenely.
A flicker of delight flashed across Ye Yuan's eyes when he heard that, and this look was naturally caught by Tang Yu-er who was observing in the dark.
"Humph! Indeed playing hard to get! Watch how this Young Lady plays with you in the palm of my hands!" Tang Yu-er cackled coldly.
"I've long heard that Miss Tang is the most beautiful person in the capital, but I didn't think that she was in love with this Ye. Since that's the case, this Ye will proceed there! However, never use this kind of trick to mess with me again!" Ye Yuan said.
. . . . . .
Ye Yuan only felt his eyes blur. Two days had already passed.
In the illusion, the caster could freely switch time and space, but the person who was under the spell would be oblivious and think that it was as a matter of course instead.
Except, to Ye Yuan, such an illusion was really too low-level.
Although the previous life's Ji Qingyun was a trash in the Martial Dao, he was an existence at the peak of perfection regarding the attainments on the divine soul.
He had every kind of divine soul mystic arts at the tip of his fingers.
How could a puny little half-step Crystal Formation Realm martial artist's illusion make him fall for it?
Not to mention, Ye Yuan's present divine soul realm was already even stronger than high-rank Alchemy King. It was not any weaker compared to Tang Yu-er.
Under the circumstances where the strength of the divine souls was around the same, Tang Yu-er was even less likely to make him fall under the spell.
Ye Yuan was only messing with Tang Yu-er right now, that was why he pretended to be under the spell. If he was willing, he could leave this illusion at any time and also heavily injure Tang Yu-er's divine soul.
Inside the VIP building's reserved room, Tang Yu-er was wearing a light green fine gauze clothing. Truly beautiful to the extreme.
Compared to the Tang Yu-er on the platform who was in martial attire, this Tang Yu-er had a portion more of delicateness and good-naturedness, and less overbearingness.
When Ye Yuan saw Tang Yu-er, he also became absent-minded for a split second. When this scene landed in Tang Yu-er's eyes, there was naturally a few more parts of disgust.
Ye Yuan did not think that Tang Yu-er would actually have such a gentle and soft side. He wondered if the Tang Yu-er, in reality, would also have such a side.
"A few days ago, Yu-er was somewhat brusque. Today, I've prepared some thin wine to specially make up to Young Master Ye. I hope that Young Master Ye won't take to heart my prior transgressions and bury the hatchet with Yu-er."
When the words came out of her mouth, Tang Yu-er was filled with the grace of a young lady from an eminent family.
Ye Yuan secretly found it funny but was nonchalant on the surface as he said, "Miss Yu-er is too polite. As a real man, why would this Ye quibble with a celestial fairy-like miss like Yu-er?"
Tang Yu-er raised her wine cup and showed a happy expression as she said, "Since that's the case, how about Mister Ye please drink this toast with me?"
Ye Yuan smiled and downed his cup in one go.
After a cup of wine, the pair each with their own wicked plans started to chat like good friends of many years.
Ye Yuan started chatting about distant lands randomly, making Tang Yu-er yearn for more.
Ye Yuan talked from the mundane world to the martial artist world, from the Martial Dao to the Alchemy Dao. His encyclopedic knowledge and extensiveness of what he had seen and heard before made Tang Yu-er unconsciously forget that she was inside an illusion world.
Ye Yuan's knowledge and experience were simply not what Tang Yu-er could hope to match. Even inside an illusion, that sort of faint feeling from being someone from a higher realm would also leak out unwittingly.
Such disposition had absolute lethality towards women.
The Tang Yu-er who cast the illusion was gradually substituted by Ye Yuan.
Illusions were a type of very delicate divine soul mystic arts.
Under most circumstances, the caster would be the absolute master of the illusion world. But if they encountered an expert with extremely powerful soul force, the pressure on the caster would be enormous.
Take Tang Yu-er for example. With her divine soul realm plus the power of an illusionary divine soul mystic art, she could make the other party descend into an illusionary realm when facing ordinary Crystal Formation Realm experts.
Of course, the prerequisite was that the other party did not deliberately cultivate their divine soul.
Tang Yu-er's illusions were very easy to fall for, for martial artists. But if she faced an Alchemy Grandmaster, then it would not be so useful.
All in all, Tang Yu-er's illusions were very powerful and could even let her leap ranks to battle!
But Ye Yuan's understanding towards illusions and divine soul was simply not what Tang Yu-er could compare to.
Having fallen into the illusionary realm for such a long time, it looked to be uninteresting like water, but in reality, it was the struggle between Ye Yuan and Tang Yu-er's divine soul.
It was just that Ye Yuan intentionally appeared weak in front of his opponent, so Tang Yu-er thought that she held the initiative the entire time.
But in reality, Ye Yuan had already gotten the initiative unknowingly and also dragged Tang Yu-er into the illusion instead.
At the current moment, the Tang Yu-er in green garment opposite Ye Yuan could be said to be Tang Yu-er in the flesh already.
It was just that the Tang Yu-er who fell to the illusion was completely unaware.
