Unrivaled Medicine God, page 291
Shangguan Lingyun suddenly looked at Ye Yuan with a smile that wasn’t a smile and said, “A good-for-nothing huh? I afraid not!”
Ye Yuan’s expression changed, and he said in a solemn voice, “What do you mean?”
“Huhu, nothing. I just want to say that Brother Ye might still have the chance to meet Zhao Chenggan. Furthermore, that day shouldn’t be too far away.”
“Even if he stands before me again, he’s still a good-for-nothing,” Ye Yuan said indifferently.
His heart was far from as calm as on the surface. He was distinguishing the true and false of Shangguan Lingyun’s words.
He already damaged Zhao Chenggan’s dantian at that time. With Zhao Tianyin’s means, it was impossible to help Zhao Chenggan restore his dantian.
What the hell was happening here?
Moreover, logically speaking, it was impossible for Shangguan Lingyun to have such rapid improvement speed. Yet, he rose a full major realm. How did he accomplish it?
Ye Yuan felt more and more that the Fierce Gale World’s invasion this time was not quite normal; exuding strangeness all over.
“Brother Ye’s talent stands above others. But better don’t look down on Zhao Chenggan. When he comes out this time, he’ll probably become different! Alright, one must be willing to lose if they bet. You guys enter the city then.”
Shangguan Lingyun moved aside and actually really opened up a path.
Ye Yuan nodded slightly and walked towards the city gates unhurriedly.
“L-Lord Shangguan was actually defeated? This . . . How is this possible?”
“Who in the world is that youth? To actually be able to defeat the ever-victorious Lord Shangguan with Sea Transformation Realm strength?”
“Yeah. The last time Lord Shangguan personally took action, he killed three late-stage Sea Transformation experts with one move! I thought that he was already invincible beneath Divine Traversing Realm. Didn’t expect that . . . he actually lost!”
“I thought that the Endless World was all a bunch of trash. Didn’t think that there was actually still such a strong youth! He’s not yet 18 years old, right? His strength is actually even stronger than Lord Shangguan’s!”
The strength that Ye Yuan displayed made the countenance of all the Fierce Gale World martial artists change.
In their view, Shangguan Lingyun’s strength was already formidable until he was unbeatable. Unless it was a Divine Traversing Realm powerhouse who came, otherwise, there was simply no possibility of losing.
Along the way, Shangguan Lingyun very rarely made a move. But each time he took action, it was killing in one move no matter how powerful the opponent was.
But today, the invincible Lord Shangguan actually lost to a youth a full major realm lower than him! This was too subverting!
Under everyone’s stupefied gazes, Ye Yuan walked towards Crimsonlight City slowly.
As he made his move, the Fierce Gale World martial artists automatically moved aside, creating a path for him.
Chapter 598. Questioning |
Above Crimsonlight City’s tall city gates, there were several silhouettes currently looking into the distance, taking everything that happened below the city gates into their sights.
“City Lord, this youth is incredible. Even the Fierce Gale World’s commander isn’t this match!”
The one speaking was called Ding Qi, City Lord Su Hu’s confidant; he was an Eighth Level Soul Sea Realm expert.
Su Hu’s expression was as per normal. But that hint of surprise in his eyes could not be wiped away.
Hearing Ding Qi appraise that youth, he nodded and said, “No idea where this youth popped out from. His strength is truly terrifyingly daunting! He’s only at the Sea Transformation Realm and can actually cross a major realm to battle!”
Ding Qi’s eyes flickered, and he said, “City Lord, could this youth be the reinforcements that the alliance sent us?”
Su Hu was stunned and said with a nod, “We’re cut off from all information with the outside world right now and don’t know the arrangements of the alliance at all. Hearing you say this, there’s really that possibility. But . . . what if it’s a ploy?”
Ding Qi was secretly startled and said, “With City Lord saying this, I’m really quite worried. Ever since that Fierce Gale World’s young commander led the great army, they have always mowed down all resistance. Many troublesome opponents were all personally disposed of by him. Furthermore, I heard that they were all killed with one move. That youth is strong, but it is truly a bit too ridiculous.”
With Ding Qi’s analysis, the suspicion in Su Hu’s heart grew even more, “With you saying this, I’m really starting to doubt! This youth is a bit too ridiculously powerful. Those ten middle-stage Soul Sea experts earlier actually could not survive one exchange with him! Although that punch of his looked to be very terrifying, it might truly have the suspicion of acting out a play!”
“Also, that young commander clearly did not go all out. So many martial artists facing five people, why should they make way?”
“En. Also! Even if this youth’s strength is really that powerful, he’s one person after all. What help is there to the war situation by coming here? Even if he can come and leave as he pleased, how will be lead so many people to escape with their lives?”
Ding Qi and Su Hu exchanged a glance and said, “Could it be that this youth is really here to trick us? Once we open up a gap in the grand array, those Fierce Gale World martial artists below will have the opportunity to take advantage! I’m not worried about others, but that young commander’s strength is too formidable. To say that he’s the number one person beneath Divine Traversing is also not over the top! Once he’s been given a hint of an opportunity, behind us are the lives of all the people in the city!”
The pair chipped in a word each and finally concluded Ye Yuan’s ‘true identity.’
And at this time, Ye Yuan already arrived below the city gates too.
While Shangguan Lingyun at this time was looking at them from a place not far away, his face still carrying a smile.
“City Lord Su Hu, we’re the reinforcements that the alliance sent! Please open up the grand array and let us go in!” Qin Yan mustered up essence energy and shouted in a clear voice.
Su Hu’s brows furrowed and he gave Ding Qi a look.
Ding Qi understood and called out, “Do you all have any proof?”
Qin Yan took out a silk-like object and fired a seal at it. That silk vanished directly and appeared in front of Su Hu.
Su Hu took a look at the silk. Indeed, it was an item issued with the alliance’s name. But Su Hu’s expression still did not take a turn for the better.
The time the Endless Alliance has been established was too short. Many systems had all yet to be perfected.
Crimsonlight City was too distant from Wu Fang City and was not familiar with many of the alliance’s things.
A tiny piece of silk, they were simply unable to differentiate the truth from the false.
“This thing is too easy to copy. We can’t open the array formation!” Ding Qi called out in a clear voice.
Qin Yan was stunned. He did not think that these fellows were actually so inflexible. He was someone quite arrogant at heart and haughty in manner after all. Coming to assist this city and they actually did not believe him. This made his young master temper flare up.
“Open your dog eyes and look! I’m the Myriad Sword Sect’s Old Ancestor, Qin Hongtao’s, grandson! Can it still be fake?” Qin Hongtao said furiously
Once Su Hu heard this, the suspicion in his heart grew even more. He said with a cold smile, “Heh heh, would Old Ancestor Qin send his own grandson here? Don’t joke with me! Looks like you guys are indeed sent by the Fierce Gale World to trick us!”
“You!” Qin Yan could not help choking up but did not know how he should refute.
Yeah, logically speaking, Qin Hongtao indeed would not send his own grandson here to this sort of dangerous place, let alone that they still directly charged towards the city very arrogantly just now.
Seeing this scene, Su Hu could not help shaking his head very disappointedly and said, “Sigh, looks like over at the alliance there can’t be counted on. Can it be that this city full of Endless World martial artists all can’t escape the vicious killing?”
Inside the city was packed full of martial artists right now. As the city lord, Su Hu had immense pressure too.
Facing everything outside the city, he had no choice but to be cautious. One careless move and the price was not what he could bear.
“Huhu, looks like your own people aren’t very trusting of you guys!” Shangguan Lingyun gloated over their misfortune.
Ye Yuan turned out and gave him a nonchalant glance and said, “Seems like you’re very pleased!”
Shangguan Lingyun smiled and said, “Shouldn’t I be pleased? Even if I let you guys go over, you all can’t enter the city too, isn’t it so?”
Ye Yuan suddenly smiled and said, “The four of you stick close to me. We’re entering the city.”
“Ah?” The four people were dazed, and they had not yet reacted when Ye Yuan’s figure already moved and arrived at the edge of the grand array.
“What are you still in a daze for?” Ye Yuan urged.
The four people hurriedly caught up.
Ye Yuan’s stepped out and directly crossed into the grand array.
Seeing this scene, the smile on Shangguan Lingyun’s face immediately froze there.
This grand array which obstructed thousands of soldiers and horse was actually regarded as nothing by Ye Yuan?
The reason why the Fierce Gale World’s five-way great army did not have any incident all along, surrounding and but not attacking, was because of this grand array before their eyes!
This grand array was called Mystic Crystal Iron Chain Array; it was a true-blue Tier 5 low-grade grand array. Unless Divine Traversing Realm experts came here, there was simply no way to crack it.
All this time, Shangguan Lingyun was not in a hurry and only surrounded and did not attack. As long as this place became a lone city, they would take it down sooner or later.
Who could have thought that this grand array which even Soul Sea Realm experts were powerless against, Ye Yuan entered with a lift of his leg!
Qin Yan four people could not help being overjoyed when they saw the situation and hurriedly followed Ye Yuan into the grand array.
When the Su Hu on top of the city gates saw this scene, his countenance likewise changed abruptly. He hurriedly said to Ding Qi, “Quick! Deploy the grand array and kill the five of them for me!”
Ding Qi was also startled inwardly and hastily took out a talisman and fired essence energy into it, transmitting back to the center of the grand array controlling the array formation.
The one presiding over the grand array was a young Tier 4 array master. His name was Shao Siqi.
Although he was unable to unleash the grand array’s full power, deploying the grand array to resist martial artists beneath the Divine Traversing Realm was still achievable.
Receiving the message in the talisman, he did not dare to delay and hurriedly deployed the grand array, wanting to kill Ye Yuan five people.
Yet, with this deployment, Shao Siqi’s expression changed, “What’s going on? This . . . Why is this Mystic Crystal Iron Chain Array out of my control?”
Chapter 599. Yet to Go All Out |
When Ye Yuan appeared in front of Su Hu, he could not suppress the shock in his heart.
This young man actually crossed over directly into the array formation, and then flew on top of the city walls and stood in front of him.
Su Hu very much wanted to slap this youth before his eyes to death with one palm. However, not knowing why, he actually could not raise his hand.
“You’re City Lord Su Hu?” Ye Yuan looked quietly at Su Hu and asked.
“Insolence! You actually dare to be disrespectful towards City Lord, His Excellency!” Ding Qi reproached.
Ye Yuan ignored him and still looked at Su Hu quietly, waiting for his reply.
Su Hu discovered that he actually had a feeling of being short on breath in front of this youth!
Finally, he could not endure this sort of stifling atmosphere and said with a nod, “That’s right, I’m Su Hu! Could it be . . . that you are really here to reinforce Crimsonlight City?”
When Qin Yan saw this Su Hu, he immediately felt irate. He was just about to fly off the handle when he was pulled by Yin Yanhua from behind, shaking her head at him.
Qin Yan was startled. Glancing at Ye Yuan, he kept his mouth shut.
“It’s naturally true. Otherwise, do you think that I’ll still stand here perfectly well speaking to you?” Ye Yuan said coolly.
Su Hu was secretly alarmed and knew what the words Ye Yuan said meant.
Since he could bring these four people into the grand array, he could naturally bring others into the grand array.
If Ye Yuan was really a spy sent by the Fierce Gale World, why would he need to waste this time talking crap with him?
Even though he did not know just what problem occurred over at the grand array’s central, Ye Yuan’s might had clearly already exceeded their understanding.
An out-and-out Tier 5 grand array actually could not block Ye Yuan the slightest!
Thinking this through, Su Hu had a look of embarrassment as he clasped his hands at Ye Yuan and said, “This Sir, truly sorry. There are too many irrational aspects with the appearance of you people, so I’m a little careful too. Didn’t think that it nearly led to a disaster!”
Ye Yuan waved his hand and said, “No worries. City Lord is burdened with heavy responsibilities. Being a little careful is as ought to be. Rather, this Ye directly barging into the formation was quite brusque. Hope that Your Excellency won’t blame us.”
Ye Yuan really did not blame Su Hu. Or else, with his personality, he would definitely not be so polite.
This Su Hu being able to guard Crimsonlight City until now was already very not easy.
Shangguan Lingyun was an extremely intelligent person. There was most likely more than one bluff used in between this. If Su Hu did not handle carefully, he would probably have fallen for it long ago.
To be able to persevere until now, this Su Hu was worthy of Ye Yuan’s respect.
When Su Hu saw that Ye Yuan was so easy to talk so, he relaxed greatly in his heart.
Ye Yuan’s fame had already spread far and wide long ago at Wu Fang City, but Su Hu did not recognize him.
In his view, Ye Yuan was definitely some big shot’s junior. That was how he had such strength.
With a young man’s arrogance plus such strength, he should have thought nothing of him. To think that he was actually so easygoing.
Earlier, that young man behind Ye Yuan was clearly going to fly off the handle but forcefully suppressed it. Rather like a young master.
Hang on, could it be that he was really Old Ancestor Qin’s grandson?
Thinking up to here, Su Hu’s heart involuntarily thumped.
Those four people behind Ye Yuan all had extraordinary bearings. Furthermore, they were all Second Level Soul Sea strength. At this age, it was absolutely top-notch strength.
If looking at it like this, the likelihood of this young man being Old Ancestor Qin’s grandson was very high!
But the problem was, these four people clearly looked to Ye Yuan for instructions, even looking like followers.
Then just what was the identity of this 17, 18 years old youth before his eyes?
With Old Ancestor Qin’s status, how could he let his own grandson be a youngster’s follower?
Su Hu felt that he was rather confused. Just what was the background of this youth before him?
These five people combination was seriously too strange. It made him unable to understand what it was all about.
But one thing was very clear, and that was that these few youngsters could not be offended!
Disregarding the powers behind them, just talking about Ye Yuan blasting ten middle-stage Soul Sea experts flying with a punch, their own strength could not be ignored!
Thinking this through, Su Hu panted a little unwittingly.
“Dare not, dare not. You came to rescue us from the siege, but I slammed the door in your faces. No matter what, It’s my fault! It’s just . . .” Su Hu looked at Ye Yuan, just five people, and could not help revealing a difficult look.
Ye Yuan smiled and followed up, “It’s just that why is it only the five of us, right?”
Su Hu gave an awkward smile.
Ye Yuan continued saying, “Because the five of us are enough!”
Su Hu’s impression of Ye Yuan was pretty good. But hearing Ye Yuan say such raving words at this time, he could not help criticizing inwardly.
“I saw Sir’s strength earlier. Even the Fierce Gale World’s main commander was helpless against you. But for us, these people, are not the Fierce Gale World’s match!” Su Hu said in a roundabout manner.
Ye Yuan laughed and said, “Here isn’t the place to talk. Can we go to City Lord Manor to chat?”
Su Hu was stunned and smacked his head and said, “Look at this brain of mine, my fault, my fault! Sir, please.”
Ye Yuan nodded his head and followed Su Hu to the city lord manor.
. . . . . .
“Lord Shangguan, just what kind of person was that youth? To actually have such terrifying strength?”
The central army’s main tent, Deng Sheng still had a look of astonishment on his face. The impact that Ye Yuan’s performance earlier brought him was too intense.
Shangguan Lingyun gave him a glance and said indifferently, “Are you aware that a year ago, there was an Endless World youth who infiltrated into the Central Capital, and he threw the capital into an upheaval?”
Deng Sheng’s expression changed drastically when he heard that and exclaimed in shock, “It’s actually him! No wonder! No wonder! Even Seventh Prince, His Highness, suffered defeat at his hands. No wonder he had such formidable strength! It’s just that . . . I heard that when he fought with Seventh Prince, he was still only a Crystal Formation Realm martial artist. How long has it been . . . He’s actually already approaching Soul Sea Realm?”
