Unrivaled Medicine God, page 232
The girl as cold as frost, but had a beauty that could topple down a nation, and with heavenly fragrance too. Standing there, she gave people a cold and detachment vibe which kept people a thousand miles away. This was an ice mountain beauty in its true sense!
Seeing this woman, Qin Yan trio's faces changed!
"Yin Yanhua!"
When Ye Yuan saw this girl, he could not help being rather surprised. The Tranquil Cloud Sect had the sect protecting grand array defending. This woman could actually silently sneak into the main hall.
Yin Yanhua gave Ye Yuan a graceful bow but did not open her mouth to speak.
Ye Yuan smiled faintly and said in a clear voice, "Is your distinguished self still hoping for a fluke in your heart? Since you came, might as well get together. Wouldn't it be lively?"
Luo Qingfeng could not help being secretly alarmed. There was actually still somebody!
Indeed, when Ye Yuan's voice faded, a young man dressed in long black robes flashed out from the corner.
"Guo Taoqun! You all!" When Qin Yan saw these two people, he wished that he could find a hole to crawl into.
Guo Taoqun took a few more glances at Ye Yuan, but his gaze finally fell on Qin Yan, and said smilingly, "Huhu, the Myriad Sword Sect's number one disciple actually suffered a crushing defeat in the desolate land of the Southern Domain. I think sending this news back to the Northern Domain will create a considerable stir!"
But Qin Yan said with a cold smile, 'Guo Taoqun, stop delighting in my misfortune here! If you have the capabilities, you go and size yourself up with that punk!"
Guo Taoqin froze, his gaze involuntarily turning towards Ye Yuan. He chuckled and said, "Messing around for so long, you were actually defeated in the hands of this boy?"
Yin Yanhua and Guo Taoqun had just reached the main hall not long and did not see Ye Yuan and Qin Yan's confrontation at all.
Guo Taoqun even thought that it was Luo Qingfeng who beat Qin Yan to heavy injuries and came out just in time to ridicule.
Right then, the Yin Yanhua who did not talk the entire time had a seldom-seen dialogue, "That young man isn't simple!"
Guo Taoqun was stunned once again and finally sized up Ye Yuan properly.
He originally thought that Ye Yuan could call out Yin Yanhua and himself because there was some array formation inside this main hall.
Looking at it now, it did not seem to be that simple.
This youth whose age was not past 16 seemed to be rather extraordinary.
Qin Yan's strength, Guo Taoqun was all too familiar. Even when encountering ordinary First Level Soul Sea Realms, he might not be at a disadvantage.
Guo Taoqun previously even thought that this Tranquil Cloud Sect's sect master was very strong, that was why Qin Yan was defeated. He did not think that it was actually because of this young man in front of him.
This young man was only at the First Level Sea Transformation realm. Didn't this mean that . . . he could cross a major realm to defeat his opponent?
This shock was no trivial matter!
Chapter 476. Unexpected Invitation |
"Qin Yan was really injured by you?" Guo Taoqun asked with a blank look.
Ye Yuan's brows furrowed slightly, and he said, "So what if yes? So what if not?"
"Cough, cough. This . . . If yes, I want to say . . . nicely done!" Guo Taoqun suddenly changed his tone.
Even Ye Yuan did not quite come around hearing his words.
When Qin Yan heard these words, he was so furious that he felt a sweetness in his throat. His injuries actually flared up again.
He looked at Guo Taoqun, wishing that he could eat him alive.
"This Qin Yan, I've long been displeased by him. It's just that sadly, I couldn't find the chance all along. Now, Little Brother actually accomplished this wish of mine. It really makes me feel even more cordial!" Guo Taoqun said with a broad grin. Everybody was stunned.
As he spoke, Guo Taoqun actually put his arm around Ye Yuan's shoulder. That appearance looked like brothers who had been acquainted for many years.
Ye Yuan was still very vigilant at the start. Later, he discovered that this Guo Taoqun did not have any ill-intent towards him, and so he let him be.
Guo Taoqun pulled Ye Yuan along and talked a whole bunch. On the whole, they were more or less words which besmirched Qin Yan. Ye Yuan could not tell the truth from false either.
Qin Yan listened by the side, his entire face was black like the bottom of a wok.
But he was already fish on the chopping block right now, and simply dare not make any movements.
This Ye Yuan was a nutcase. He actually dared to provoke the Myriad Sword Sect. If he really offended him hard, there was no guarantee that he would not do anything.
"Oh, right, I seemed to have heard that you guys want to keep Qin Yan behind to be a hostage?"
Ye Yuan gave Guo Taoqun a glance and nodded.
"Haha! Brother, you really have guts! The people that I, Guo Taoqun, admire in this lifetime aren't many. You're one of them!"
Looking at Guo Taoqun's manner, it rather looked like being admired by him was so laudable.
Ye Yuan was disinclined to bother with him and retorted with a question, "Who the hell are you? Barging into my Tranquil Cloud Sect's main hall without authorization, I'm afraid that it's a little inappropriate, right?"
Guo Taoqun was not embarrassed either. He said proudly, "I'm the Heavenly Martial Sect's Eldest Disciple, Guo Taoqun. This great beauty is the Profound Ice Sect's well-renown Ice Cloud Fairy, Yin Yanhua!"
When Guo Taoqun introduced Yin Yanhua, his eyes were filled with an ingratiating manner. That appearance was even somewhat fawning.
But Yin Yanhua did not buy it at all. She still had an icy appearance, like she totally did not hear Guo Taoqun's words at all.
But hearing Guo Taoqun's introduction, Ye Yuan came to a realization. As it turned out, the Northern Domain's three great sect's head disciples actually all converged in the Tranquil Cloud Sect!
Seemed like Mei Zhen's trip wasn't entirely without gains. At least, it made the three great sects send people over to investigate it.
Ye Yuan took a look at the three people and said with a sigh, "You great sect disciples are really leisurely and carefree. Death is already knocking on the door, and you're still playing infighting! Looks like the Endless World has been peaceful for too long. Everyone no longer has any gallantness anymore!"
These words made Guo Taoqun stupefied. He asked curiously, "Little Brother, what's the meaning of your words? Isn't it somewhat exaggerating just to raise the alarm?"
Hearing Ye Yuan's words, the ice-cold Yin Yanhua also revealed a curious look, uncertain of the meaning in Ye Yuan's words.
When Ye Yuan saw the duo's expressions, he knew that Mei Zhen's first stop was at the Myriad Sword Sect. Moreover, he was even detained, and simply did not have the time to notify the other two sects.
He shot a fierce glare at Qin Yan and co. and said in a cold voice, "Humph! The Myriad Sword Sect is really a bunch of fellows who are unable to accomplish anything but adept at ruining things!"
Ever since becoming aware that the Fierce Gale World had a Boundless Realm powerhouse, Qin Yan trio knew just how critical the Endless World's situation was.
Being glared at by Ye Yuan at this time, they simply did not dare to retort.
If because of detaining Mei Zhen resulted in the Endless World's overall defeat, the Myriad Sword Sect would be the entire Endless World's sinners.
Seeing the expression of Qin Yan and the others, Guo Taoqun and Yin Yanhua became even more suspicious.
Was it possible that something big really happened in the Southern Domain?
The Purple Mansion Sect unifying the Southern Domain did not seem to be something serious either, right?
Right away, Ye Yuan recounted the matter of the Fierce Gale World invading briefly to the two. The two people's expression both became unbelievably solemn.
They never would have thought that such a thing would actually happen to the Endless World!
But in front of the steel-like evidence, it was not up to them to not believe.
They finally knew now why Ye Yuan scolded the Myriad Sword Sect for being unable to accomplish anything, but good at spoiling things.
"Little Brother, if the matter is really as you say, then isn't the Endless World in imminent danger?" At this time, Guo Taoqun's face no longer had any debauch look. What replaced it was indescribable graveness.
"It's not to the extent of on the verge of destruction. Because even if the realm passageway is linked together, it can't withstand Boundless Realm experts passing through either. If the Wind Emperor wishes to cross the realm passageway, he must have sovereign level array masters reinforcing the realm passageway's barrier continuously, all the way until it stabilizes fully. At least, in the short run, the Fierce Gale World and the Endless World are still in the situation of being evenly-matched in strength. But if the Endless World is still a pile of loose sand, then this world's destruction is just a matter of time," Ye Yuan said coolly.
Guo Taoqun revealed a look of realization. The logic that Ye Yuan said was very simple, which was for the Endless World to resist the foreign enemy with a united spirit.
But Guo Taoqun who resided in the Northern Domain was deeply aware that this was simply something impossible!
The Northern Domain's sects stood in great numbers. Apart from the three great sects, there were still many large and small sects of varying sizes.
These sects' thoughts were all different. Without a person who could rally hundreds with a single call, there was simply no way of making them put their strength together.
If each fought their own battles when the time came, the Endless World would really not be far from complete destruction.
"Hiss . . . Fortunately, our Heavenly Martial Sect and the Profound Ice Sect obtained some information, sending the two of us to follow Qin Yan all the way here. Or else, we would really not know that such an earth-shaking major event actually happened to the Endless World! No can do. This matter is much too important. I have to return to inform Lord Sect Master straight away to make plans early!"
As he said, Guo Taoqun turned around and wanted to leave. When he passed by Yin Yanhua, Guo Taoqun suddenly switched to a smiling face and asked, "Ice Cloud Fairy, why not . . . we head back together?"
Yin Yanhua did not even spare him a glance, but took light steps and walked towards Ye Yuan.
"I wonder what junior brother's name is?" Yin Yanhua asked.
"Ye Yuan."
"So, it's Junior Apprentice Brother Ye. If it's in accordance with what Junior Apprentice Brother Ye said, the Northern Domain has no tenable defensive position anymore. The Tranquil Cloud Sect is already a lone island. Doesn't your Tranquil Cloud Sect have plans to move north?"
Ye Yuan was rather surprised. This Ice Cloud Fairy was evidently someone with a nimble mind. He did not have the need to hide either, and said with a nod, "That's right. We're currently planning to move north!"
Yin Yanhua nodded her head slightly when she heard this. She said, "Junior Apprentice Brother Ye detained Qin Yan to be a hostage. The Myriad Sword Sect definitely won't let things go. How about my Profound Ice Sect provide for shelter for you guys. I wonder what Junior Apprentice Brother Ye's thoughts are?"
When Yin Yanhua said this, Qin Yan's expression became even uglier.
"Fairy Maiden, my Myriad Sword Sect has good relations with the Profound Ice Sect all along. How can you take such an action arbitrarily?!" Qin Yan nearly spewed out another mouthful of old blood.
At this time, Guo Taoqun smacked his head and interjected too. He slung his arm around Ye Yuan again and said, "Haha! I hit it off with Junior Apprentice Brother Ye on first sight! How about . . . you come to our Heavenly Martial Sect!"
Hearing these words, Qin Yan's two eyes finally rolled back, and he fainted.
Chapter 477. He's Called Ye Yuan! |
Yin Yanhua and Guo Taoqun invited Ye Yuan naturally because they took a fancy on his potential.
Ye Yuan could defeat Qin Yan, sufficiently showing how great his strength was.
With Ye Yuan's age, his accomplishments would surely be boundless in the future. Such a figure naturally had to be roped in early.
Seeing Guo Taoqun cutting in, Yin Yanhua's surrounding temperature fell several degrees once more.
Guo Taoqun's face changed, and he said obsequiously, "Haha, kidding, just kidding. How can our Heavenly Martial Sect have a place to house such a large sect?"
Yin Yanhua could not be bothered with Guo Taoqun. She said to Ye Yuan, "I wonder what Junior Apprentice Brother Ye's opinion is like?"
The few people present were all the distinguished leaders of the Endless World's junior generation. They were all sharp-minded people.
Although those few standing by the sides were the Tranquil Cloud Sect's upper echelons, the one truly making the decisions was this young man before their eyes.
Ye Yuan mused for a moment and said with Yin Yanhua with a faint smile, "Thank you very much for Ice Cloud Fairy's good intentions. But about the place to settle down, my Tranquil Cloud Sect already has arrangements."
A tinge of disappointment flickered across Yin Yanhua's eyes as she said with a sigh, "Alright then. Since that's the case, Yanhua will take her leave."
Finished talking, Yin Yanhua's figure moved, vanishing before everyone.
Guo Taoqun yelled out, "Ice Cloud Fairy, wait for me! Junior Apprentice Brother Ye, when you go to the Northern Domain, you have to come to my Heavenly Martial Sect to take a look! I'm leaving too!"
Ye Yuan gave a faint smile. This Guo Taoqun was really a funny fellow.
At this time, there were only the Myriad Sword Sect's three people left in the main hall. Ye Yuan said coolly, "What? Could it be that you all are still planning on staying behind to have a meal?"
Gu Tianyou looked at Ye Yuan and looked at the unconscious Qin Yan again. For a moment, he was actually at a loss on what to do.
"Eldest Senior Brother he . . ." Gu Tianyou gave a smile that was even uglier than crying.
"Do you feel like I'm joking with you all?" Ye Yuan's tone became cold.
"N-No."
"Then not scramming yet?"
Seeing that Ye Yuan inclining to fly off the handle, Gu Tianyou and Li Junjie went out of the main hall step by step.
At this time, Luo Qingfeng came in front of Ye Yuan and asked worriedly, "The Myriad Sword Sect is one of the three strongest great sects in the Northern Domain. Just the Divine Traversing Realm experts in their sect numbers quite a few. We captured their eldest disciple. They probably won't take things lying down, right?"
Ye Yuan said with a frown, "I'm the one who sent Elder Mei over. I have to rescue him back! Sect Master rest assured; the matter of the realm passageway linking together is also just in these few days. At that time, the Myriad Sword Sect most likely won't have the energy to come and bother with us, a tiny little Tranquil Cloud Sect."
Luo Qingfeng had no alternatives. He could only say, "Fine then. It's up to you to do whatever you want. Grand Elder and I will always be standing behind you to support you!"
Ye Yuan said smilingly, "Many thanks for Grand Elder's and Sect Master's understanding. Sect Master, the time left to us isn't much already. We have to make the best use of our time to move north."
. . . . . .
Several days later, beneath the unknown mystic realm's Eternal Splendor Palace.
Rumble!
With an enormous rumble, the Six Extreme Seals Grand Array fragmented inch by inch.
The grand array that guarded the Endless World for several thousand years finally collapsed with a loud bang.
At the same time, the entire Endless World felt an intense tremor. Everyone all felt like something major was about to happen!
He Mingde stood respectfully at one side. Five figures took the lead to enter, crossing the realm passageway.
Seeing these five people, He Mingde bowed all the way down, "Fierce Gale World's survivor, He Mingde, pay respects to five sovereigns!"
These five people were shocking all Peak Divine Traversing Realm existences!
The one at the helm nodded slightly and said, "Arise! You did very well. His Majesty, the Wind Emperor, is very pleased with you. This is the reward that His Majesty, the Wind Emperor, entrusted me to give you before setting off."
This elderly person was actually the Shangguan Family Head who observed Ye Yuan and Zhao Chenggan's battle from a corner of the plaza back then, Shangguan Wenrui!
He Mingde was overjoyed seeing the situation and said, "Many thanks for His Majesty, the Wind Emperor's, bestowal. Although we have lied low in the Endless World for thousands of years, we dare not forget the great duty that His Majesty, the Wind Emperor, tasked us to do even for a moment! Having gone through thousands of years, it finally let us find a way to crack the Six Extreme Seals Grand Array!"
Shangguan Wenrui nodded and suddenly asked, "The Endless World's Southern Domain is very important to us. It should have culminated under your Purple Mansion Sect, right?"
But He Mingde's expression changed as he said, "Sovereign Shangguan, forgive my mistake. Originally, the Southern Domain was already in the bag. But a remarkably monstrous youth came from the Tranquil Cloud Sect. He actually raised the Tranquil Cloud Sect's sect protecting grand array to Quasi-Tier 5 level. We . . ."
The air instantly chilled. Shangguan Wenrui was clearly very displeased by this news.
He Mingde stood by the side and did not dare to even exhale loudly.
This one before his eyes was a Peak Divine Traversing Realm powerhouse. Huffing a breath could doom him eternally.
That boy called Ye Yuan really screwed him over badly!
"You, an exalted Seventh Level Soul Sea Realm martial artist, is actually powerless against a youngster? His Majesty, the Wind Emperor, placed such high hopes on you; is this how you repay him?" Shangguan Wenrui said coldly.
He Mingde sweat profusely and hurriedly explain, "Sovereign Shangguan, calm your anger. That . . . That young man is indeed too monstrous. Furthermore . . . Furthermore, I heard that he escaped back to the Endless World from the Fierce Gale World!"
