Unrivaled Medicine God, page 350
Ye Yuan sighed emotionally and said, “This Jun Tianyu’s sword intent runs unobstructed. He has probably touched the threshold of supreme true intent already. In the future, he’s bound to be another shocking figure.”
Ye Yuan himself cultivated in the sword too. He was extremely sensitive to sword intent. The height of Jun Tianyu’s concepts, it was likely rare for him to have opponents in this Ancient Opulence City!
. . . . . .
Gu Family, Gu Hong had already rescinded the mission long ago and returned to the family clan.
At this time, a Gu Family’s guest retainer was standing in front of him as he said respectfully, “Steward Gu, already investigated clearly. That brat Yu Ming brought over is called Ye Yuan, a lower realm martial artist who just ascended today. He wasn’t willing to go to the north of the city to dig ores, so he drew seven to eight alchemist missions at Steward Lu’s place.”
Gu Hong could not help being stunned when he heard and asked somewhat disbelievingly, “What did you say? Just ascended today? You’re sure that there isn’t a mistake?”
That guest retainer nodded and said, “I won’t be wrong. Each ascender has records at the ascension pool. This subordinate got people to go and examine the name list of the ascenders today. Among them had Ye Yuan’s name.”
Gu Hong could not help laughing when he heard that and said, “I was thinking which tom, dick, and harry it was. After a long time, I found out it’s just someone who ascended today! This blowing of the trumpet nearly blew a hole in this sky!”
The guest retainer also laughed when he heard and said, “This boy indeed doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth! Our Ancient Opulence City’s ascenders, other than those mining for ores, there has never been people who survived past ten days before. This punk dared to take on Tier 6 missions right when he arrived. This is simply courting death.”
Gu Hong shook his head and laughed as he said, “Huhu, I also don’t know what kind of magic potion he got that punk Yu Ming to drink. To actually even want to let that boy come and treat Eldest Miss’s illness! Fortunately, this old man was smart. Otherwise, Family Head would have to fly into a rage! Forget it, forget it, let that punk go and mess around. When he gets eradicated by the City Lord Manor, see how Yu Ming that punk comes in front of me and fall on his knees begging!”
The guest retainer was just about to leave but was stopped by Gu Hong again.“Oh, right, that punk met with a rebuff here at my place. Where did he go after?”
The guest retainer replied, “The two of them went to Lord Jun Tianyu’s place. Afterward, Yu Ming went to the Golden Cauldron Tower.”
Gu Hong was stunned again and laughed in spite of himself as he said, “That punk is really an ignorant person having no fear, to actually dare go to Lord Jun there. Initially still thinking of making a move to deal with him. Looking at it now, don’t need us to make a move and Lord Jun will take his life!”
. . . . . .
In just two hours, Jun Tianyu brought the Cleansing Water Flower back.
The moment he entered the house, his entire person was like struck by a thunderbolt.
His wife, Liu Yiru was currently reclined on the bed. The originally pale face actually had an additional trace of rosiness.
She was already unconscious for over a month. Jun Tianyu did not think that he was only gone for this short while and his wife had the strength to sit up.
“Tian . . . Tianyu!”
Even though she sat up, Liu Yiru was still very weak. But at this time, she struggled, wanting to get up.
“Don’t move!” Jun Tianyu came right to the bedside with a flash and supported Liu Yiru.
“You . . . How are you feeling?” Jun Tianyu said rather anxiously, worried that he would lose her.
“S-Still alright,” Liu Yiru forced a smile and said.
But Ye Yuan at one side shook his head and sighed when he saw the situation and said, “Alright, don’t forcefully keep it up anymore. She just regained consciousness. Her body is still very weak. Don’t talk too much with her. The days to come are still long, no rush for this short while.”
Jun Tianyu’s old face reddened and he hurriedly laid Liu Yiru down. Then he said to Ye Yuan gratefully, “Many thanks, Master!”
“Huhu, it’s still too earlier to thank me. Wait until Madam Jun recovers then thanking me isn’t late. Oh, right, is the Cleansing Water Flower brought back?” Ye Yuan said with a smile.
Jun Tianyu hurriedly took out the Cleansing Water Flower from his storage ring and passed it to Ye Yuan, saying, “Luckily, Master Yi Dan still had two stalks remaining there. No idea if it’s enough or not.”
Ye Yuan received the Cleansing Water Flower and said, “The quality is a little poor. But it’s barely enough to use.”
Before long, Yu Ming brought a large pile of Tier 6 spirit medicines and returned to Jun Tianyu’s manor. Ye Yuan did not talk rubbish either. Deploying the Cleansing Water Flower, he started to simmer a decoction of medicinal soup.
A short while later, Ye Yuan carried a bowl of medicinal soup, came before Jun Tianyu, and said, “This medicinal soup’s name is called Soul Cleansing Soup. It’s most useful towards dispelling some curses directed at the divine soul. But even this one bowl isn’t enough and is unable to eliminate thoroughly. I’ve already portioned all of the medicinal herbs. Remember to let Madam Jun drink three times daily. After five days, she’ll definitely recover fully!”
Jun Tianyu hurriedly carried the Soul Cleansing Soup and fed Liu Yiru to drink before saying agitatedly, “Master Ye is truly an immortal! This Jun really doesn’t know how to thank. I wonder if Master Ye has any needs. As long as this Jun can accomplish it, just say what’s on your mind!”
Ye Yuan said, “Senior Jun don’t have to be so courteous. You issued the mission, I received the mission. After completing, there will naturally be a reward! After Madam Jun is completely recovered, you and I will be square.”
This was also Ye Yuan’s unswerving rule: only taking agreed upon consultation fees and never taking the slightest bit more.
It was just that to Jun Tianyu, what did a mere few hundred merit points count as?
“Master Ye’s words are not proper! To this Jun, even if I use all of my assets to exchange for Yiru’s life, I won’t furrow my brows at all too! A measly 500 merit points is seriously unable to express my feelings of gratitude!” Jun Tianyu said.
“Heh, Senior Jun is someone who values sentiments greatly. But my rule is that I never overcharge consultation fees too! If Senior Jun feels somewhat indebted, just take it as owing this Ye a favor then. When this Ye needs it, I’ll naturally come to find Senior Jun,” Ye Yuan said coolly.
Chapter 718. Hiring Murderer to Kill People |
“What?! You said that that Ye Yuan and Yu Ming came out from Lord Jun’s place safely?” Gu Hong nearly jumped up when he heard this news.
“Yes. Lord Jun’s might is immensely formidable. Subordinate dare not draw near. But this subordinate has inquired. Somebody saw Lord Jun personally send Ye Yuan to the entrance!”
From the guest retainer’s tone, one could also perceive that he was extremely shocked by this news as well.
This time, Gu Hong finally could not be calm. He paced around in the room, seemingly very anxious.
“Where did they go afterward?” Gu Hong suddenly stopped and asked.
The guest retainer said, “They went to the Sun Family! I’ve already sent people to keep an eye on the Sun Family. Once there are any movements, we’ll immediately receive news.”
Gu Hong’s expression flickered incessantly. Clearly, this news was too unexpected for him, catching him somewhat off-guard.
“Could it be that this punk called Ye Yuan is really capable? But he’s only Divine Traversing Realm. How is this possible?” Gu Hong frowned and said.
“Steward Gu, what should we do for our next step?”
Gu Hong thought about it and said, “Go keep an eye on the Sun Family. When they come out, immediately fish for information! That Sun Family’s illness is also a troublesome one. If he really has the ability to treat, then you . . . en?”
Gu Hong did a palm-slicing-downwards gesture, his gaze revealing a murderous gleam. He was actually going to kill them to silence their mouths.
. . . . . .
The Sun Family was also a large family clan in the Ancient Opulence City. But it was a level weaker compared to the Gu Family.
In front of the Su Family’s gates, a middle-aged man in fine-clothing sent Ye Yuan, White Light, and Yu Ming trio to the entrance.
“Benefactor, better stay behind and have a simple meal. Let this Sun express my feelings of gratitude!” the middle-aged man in fine-clothing said with a thankful face.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “There will be time for that. Better for it to be next time. This Ye took on quite a few missions and still has to go and do them one family by one family.”
“This . . . Alright then. Then this Sun won’t keep Benefactor behind! Even though my Sun Family isn’t the three great aristocratic families, I still have some power in this Ancient Opulence City. If Benefactor has any needs, feel free to speak your mind freely!” said the Sun Family’s Family head said.
“In this case, then thank you very much, Sun Family Head.”
Finished talking, Ye Yuan bid farewell and left.
By the side, Yu Ming had waves surging endlessly in his heart long ago already. It was just that in front of the Sun Family’s family head, it was unbecoming to show it.
He hung around in this Ancient Opulence City for so many years and had always been very cautious, fearful of offending bigwigs.
When had he ever been like today? Even Lord Jun and Sun Family’s Family Head, Sun Maosheng, were most respectful towards him, addressing him with great familiarity?
Following by Ye Yuan’s side made him have a feeling of being in high and vigorous spirits, walking with his head held high!
This sort of feeling was seriously too awesome!
“Heh, Brother Ye is simply godlike! Whatever kind of complicated or rare illnesses, reaching Brother Ye’s hands, they were all resolved without extra trouble! These families’ missions are all famous in the entire Ancient Opulence City. But not a single person was able to resolve them. But once Brother Ye took action, everything was resolved!” The moment they left the Sun Family, Yu Ming said with an excited look.
“This is called impressive? This is merely just so-so! What you saw is but the tip of the iceberg!” White Light said very disdainfully.
Yu Ming did not know that White Light knew Ye Yuan had the ability to cross realms and refine medicinal pills.
These illnesses actually did not need to be so troublesome. One medicinal pill could fix it. It was just that Ye Yuan did not wish to expose too many things, that was why he used such troublesome methods.
Being rebutted by White Light, not only was Yu Ming not unhappy, he nodded his head repeatedly instead and said, “Yes, yes, yes, Brother Ye’s methods are absolutely master-level. Old Yu, I, have no way of imagining at all!”
Unknowingly, a change also happened to Yu Ming’s form of address towards Ye Yuan. Evidently, his attitude towards Ye Yuan had a transformation happening too.
Originally, he was emotionally invested on Ye Yuan, with a long-term view.
But in one day, he discovered to his surprise that he did not need to wait until long-term at all!
“Alright, stop talking aimlessly. The next one . . . go to the city guards’ main camp then.” Ye Yuan said.
“Ah? C-City guards main camp?” The moment Yu Ming heard, even his speech became stammers.
“Look at you! Following my big brother, what are you afraid of? Could it be that they will eat you?” White Light said crossly.
“Uh . . . You got a point there, but . . .”
“What are you being long-winded for? Are you going or not?”
“Going! Why won’t I go?” Yu Ming made up his mind and said.
Yu Ming belonged to the city guards and was even considered a small officer. Except, he got along better in the city, that was why he could go and guard the ascension pool.
But entering the main camp, all he would see would be his superiors. How could the fear accumulated for many years be that easy to get rid of?
The three people came to the city guards’ main camp. Immediately, there was a soldier stopping the trio.
“Halt! What are you here for?”
Yu Ming hastily went forward to explain. Then handed over Ye Yuan’s identity token before that soldier let them passed.
The mission Ye Yuan received, it was all displayed in the identity token. The solder would know the moment he looked and naturally would not be mistaken.
That soldier was just about to lead the three people inside. But after just a few steps, they bumped into a middle-aged army officer.
“Why are you bringing strangers into the main camp?”
That soldier hurriedly saluted and explained the situation.
After middle-aged army officer heard, he said, “Oh, like that huh. Just nice, I’m going to Lord Head Commander there to report completion on a task. You go back first then. I’ll bring them over.”
That soldier was somewhat hesitant. “This . . .”
“Relax. With me around, nobody will make things difficult for you,” that middle-aged army officer said.
“Yes, General Song Pan!”
After the soldier left, Song Pan led the three people and walked towards the depths of the main camp.
As he walked, Song Pan asked Ye Yuan curiously, “Really have some guts. A puny little Divine Traversing Realm actually dares to take on Lord Head Commander’s missions! His old problem has been there over a decade already. To this day, no one was able to treat it. Where did your confidence come from?”
Ye Yuan said, “Nobody treated it, was naturally them being incapable. Since I dare to come, I naturally have assurance.”
“Haha, Lord Head Commander’s mission, I know a little bit. Seems like each one came brimming with confidence, but in the end, they were all chased out by Lord Head Commander with a flurry of sticks. I’m afraid that your small body can’t take the beating!” Song Pan said with a mocking laugh.
Ye Yuan looked at him but did not say anything. This guy was clearly finding trouble.
Right then, Yu Ming suddenly opened his mouth and said, “General Song, it’s not right. This doesn’t seem to be the road leading to Commander Manor, right?”
This city guards’ main camp, Yu Ming rarely came. But he was still aware of the general positions.
Seeing as the road got increasingly remote, the people getting lesser and lesser, with Yu Ming’s astuteness, how could he still not detect something amiss?
But this place was already very out of the way. The surroundings already did not have a soul.
Song Pan suddenly turned around and said with a cold smile, “Boy, don’t blame this Song for being ruthless! Want to blame, blame that you offended a person that you shouldn’t have! I’ll send you on your way right now. When you go over there, remember to be more low-profile. When you don’t have strength, best not to be too arrogant!”
At this time, Song Pan already revealed killing intent.
Yu Ming’s expression changed, and he said, “General Song, what’s the meaning of this?”
“Huhu, don’t you understand yet? This is someone hiring a murderer to kill people! Let me make a guess. Uh . . . Is it Gu Hong?” Ye Yuan snickered and said without any nervousness.
Chapter 719. The Overbearing Jun Tianyu |
“Heh, don’t need to probe. Do you think that I would be so naive?”
Song Pan did not admit it verbally, but he was startled in his heart. He did not expect that Ye Yuan actually did not hesitate, hitting the mark right away!
Except that to Ye Yuan, it did not require guessing at all.
Just how long has it been since he ascended? The only one with motives to harm him could only be Gu Hong.
Ye Yuan said with a laugh, “Not admitting, is it? Doesn’t matter, you’ll admit it in a while!”
“Still being stubborn when facing death! Go to hell!”
Song Pan gritted his teeth and was about to make a move to kill Ye Yuan.
Song Pan as a general, his strength already reached late-stage Boundless Realm. Killing these three people in front of him was just a matter of lifting a hand.
But right at this time, a peerlessly powerful sword intent instantly enveloped him. That virtually destructive pressure actually made his entire person unable to move a muscle!
The move had yet to be unleashed, and his entire person froze there, his face contorted!
A figure gradually became real from an illusion. It was none other than precisely Jun Tianyu!
When Song Pan saw the Jun Tianyu brimming with killing intent, his knees went soft, and he almost knelt down right away.
“L-Lord Jun, w-why are you here?”
Song Pan’s forehead was sweating profusely. This murderous god-like figure before his eyes, how could he afford to offend?
Even when Lord Head Commander saw him, he had to be very courteous too!
Jun Tianyu said coldly, “Master Ye is my benefactor. Why do you think I came?”
“Ah? He . . . he . . .”
Song Pan jumped in fright. How could this boy in front of him possibly be Jun Tianyu’s benefactor?
“Humph! Are you going to end yourself? Or do you want me to send you on your way?” Jun Tianyu said straightforwardly.
“Lord . . . Lord Jun, please appease your anger. I . . . I didn’t know that this Little Brother is Lord Jun’s benefactor!”
Song Pan was crying regret in his heart. Why did he provoke until this killing god without rhyme or reason?
But Jun Tianyu said coolly, “Don’t need to explain anymore. You already had killing intent just now. It’s enough to sentence you to death.”
“Lord Jun, this . . . this is the city guards’ main camp! On account of Commander Luo Fang’s face, spare this lowly one, Your Excellency!”
