Unrivaled Medicine God, page 532
“Transcendent-grade medicinal pill again! Lord Qingyun Zi is truly remarkable! The medicinal pills refined these two days, each one was transcendent-grade!”
No idea who let out a sigh of admiration in the crowd. Everyone all deeply felt that way too and nodded their heads.
“This Tier 9 Withered Glory Pill’s medicinal strength is too powerful. With your current strength, you’re completely unable to fully refine it. At that time, it will cause considerable damage to your internal organs. After going back, you can search for Essence Creek Spirit Milk to dissolve this pill, then split into five times to consume. This way, not only can it let you absorb the medicinal pill’s medicinal strength adequately, there won’t be any side-effects. Understand?” Ye Yuan instructed that martial artist.
That martial artist had a look of gratitude. Prostrating on the ground, he said, “Thank you very much, Lord Qingyun Zi!
Ye Yuan said smilingly, “No need to be overly courteous. Who’s next?”
With this question, there was complete silence.
Guo Xu was currently glaring like a ravening tiger. Who dared to answer him?
“Ji Qingyun, this is the Holy City! I’m currently standing here. Without my approval, which of them dare to find you to refine pills?” Guo Xu said with a cold smile.
Ye Yuan turned around and looked at him as he said smilingly, “Is that so? Then that means that, as long as you’re not here, they can find me to refine pills?”
Guo Xu was stunned and had yet to figure out what was happening when Ye Yuan said to Ao Qian, “Old Ao, throw this noisy fellow out.”
Yes, Milord!” Ao Qian had an excited look and was about to take action to deal with Guo Xu.
Guo Xu’s face fell, and he said furiously, “Ji Qingyun, you’re simply impervious to reason! I’m not here to pick a fight with you. I just want to invite you to make a trip to the Heavenly Saint pagoda!”
Heavenly Saint Pagoda was the Holy City’s core, also the place where the Holy City’s three titans were at.
One could say that the Heavenly Saint Pagoda was the Holy City’s brain!
Ye Yuan said nonchalantly, “Inviting people? Is there inviting people with your attitude? This young master refining pills for free here is benefiting the Holy City’s martial artists. You actually threaten them. What are your intentions?”
Ye Yuan’s words struck the heart one by one!
Guo Xu’s face turned black, and he said, “Lord Cloudsky is waiting for you in the Heavenly Saint Pagoda!”
When Ye Yuan heard that, he said with a look of surprise, “Cloudsky? Isn’t he in closed-seclusion, not seeing anyone? Lord Cloudsky is one of the Holy City’s three titans. Each time he enters closed-seclusion, it will affect the Holy City’s safety. If he wants to be in closed-seclusion, then let him stay in seclusion a while more. How can I go and meet him?”
Guo Xu’s face became as black as the bottom of a pot.
He even hauled Cloudsky out. He did not think that Ye Yuan would not give face at all.
Back then, Cloudsky used closed-seclusion as an excuse. But now, Ye Yuan used these words to retaliate. How ironic.
Ye Yuan continued saying unhurriedly, “You go back and tell Cloudsky, say that I have plenty of time. So let him slowly be in closed-seclusion. There is no need to hurry. The Holy City’s martial artists are still very warmhearted, and their need for medicinal pills are also very great. Just nice, I can let my few pupils and grand-pupil practice. When everybody’s strength increases and the fiend race attacks, our human race can also have an additional portion of assurance.”
Ye Yuan’s words made everyone shudder from head to toe!
Fiend race!
What did Lord Qingyun Zi’s words mean?
Guo Xu was also stupefied, not expecting Ye Yuan to say such words.
The matter of the fiend race, only the three titans, that level, knew. Although he was a Void Mystic powerhouse, he completely had not entered the Holy City’s true nucleus yet.
Chapter 1089. Not Stooping to the Same Level as a Junior |
“Lord Qingyun Zi, just now, you said … fiend race?” A divine king powerhouse said flusteredly.
Although legends of the fiend race were few, the Divine Realm’s martial artists were not absolutely ignorant.
In history, the human race and the fiend race fought several times. It was impossible to not leave behind any traces at all.
Except, legends were legends after all.
Now that it was uttered from Ye Yuan’s mouth, it was another feeling.
“Yeah. Lord Qingyun Zi, the fiend race that you mentioned just now, what on earth is happening?” another divine king powerhouse asked.
One could feel that the atmosphere in the plaza became somewhat different. A kind of atmosphere called fear gradually spread out.
In the fragmented legends, the fiend race was famous for being powerful. They virtually possess undying bodies!
“Ji Qingyun, lay it out straight. What the hell is going on?” Guo Xu said with a grim look.
At this time, a horrifying to the extreme pressure descended from the sky!
An old man in luxurious clothing stood in the air, appearing in the sky above the Heavenly Saint Plaza.
“Lord Cloudsky! It’s Cloudsky!”
“Paying respects to Lord Cloudsky!”
“Paying respects to Lord Cloudsky!”
…
This old man in magnificent clothing was precisely one of the Holy City’s three titans, Cloudsky!
The Holy City’s three titans possessed a paramount position. Each and every one of them was existences equivalent to the Ten Great Divine Kings.
Even though Cloudsky was not in the ranks of the Ten Great Divine Kings, that was only because the Heaven’s Secret Tower only picked ten great divine kings.
His strength was similarly not at all inferior compared to the Ten Great Divine Kings!
The moment Cloudsky appeared, the martial artists in the Holy City all bowed down in submission.
The three titans were the gods in their eyes and hearts!
“Huhu, Younger Brother Ji, many years of not seeing, your elegance is even more pronounced than in the past! This old man was in closed-seclusion a few days ago, resulting in neglecting Younger Brother. I hope that Younger Brother doesn’t take offense!” Cloudsky stroked his beard and said to Ye Yuan with a smile.
This old man really could act!
Ye Yuan viciously looked down on this old dog in his heart. His appearance was really opportune. He was just about to say out the matter of the fiend race, and this guy jumped out. It was clearly deliberate.
But, since Cloudsky personally showed up, it was inappropriate for him to carry on saying some things.
Ye Yuan looked at Cloudsky and said with a smile that was not a smile, “Huhu, not to the extent of neglecting. The Holy City’s brothers and sisters are still very warmhearted. I even thought that Elder Brother Cloudsky is going to be in seclusion for eight to ten years, I may as well get closer to everybody.”
Cloudsky knew that Ye Yuan was intentionally repulsing him. Forget about eight to ten years, at the rate you mess around with, wouldn’t the entire Holy City be turned upside-down by you in another few days?
“Haha, look at what Younger Brother is saying! This old man just had some comprehensions recently and went into seclusion for a month’s time. I just happened to exit seclusion today and let Guo Xu invite you over. Who knew that this brat failed to live up to expectations and actually offended Younger Brother Ji. Going back, I’ll definitely punish him severely.”
How could a cunning old fox like Cloudsky be so easy to get along with?
When speaking, there was no leakage of any kind, not giving Ye Yuan any chance to launch an attack at all.
Ye Yuan understood that whatever severe punishment was complete rubbish.
Even though Guo Xu was just a Purple-Gold Hall’s disciple, in terms of status, he was comparable to an elder.
Severely punish? Punish how?
These words were merely said for Ye Yuan to hear.
Except, these words in Guo Xu’s ears, was unprecedented humiliation.
Lord Cloudsky actually said that he wanted to punish him in front of so many martial artists for an outsider!
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Elder Brother Cloudsky is treating me as if I am a stranger. With my status, could it be that I’m going to stoop to the level as a junior?”
Guo Xu had not pulled himself together yet when Ye Yuan’s sentence gave him another 10 thousand point violent strike, nearly spewing out a mouthful of old blood.
This was too freaking capable of posturing!
You are clearly someone of the same generation as me, to actually raise your status yourself without any sense of shame at all!
Not feeling ashamed uttering these sort of words?
But the current situation, even if he was any more displeased, he could only swallow the broken teeth into his stomach.
Didn’t he hear Cloudsky called Younger Brother again and again?
Cloudsky was his senior. The two people calling each other brothers, wouldn’t Ye Yuan become his senior?
But, the way the other martial artists saw it, Ye Yuan’s words did not have any inappropriateness.
The martial artist world had always been the one who attained first as the revered.
Before reincarnation, Ji Qingyun was already talking on equal-footing with the likes of Cloudsky. Saying that he was a junior was also something very normal.
Even though Guo Xu already broke through to Void Mystic, compared to an existence like Cloudsky, the disparity was still too wide.
It was just that Guo Xu himself did not think so.
Cloudsky chuckled and said, “Younger Brother Ji’s heart is big enough to sail a boat! Since that’s the case, then I’ll thank Younger Brother Ji on behalf of Guo Xu, this child. Younger Brother Ji, this place isn’t a venue to talk, is it alright to have a hearty talk at the Heavenly Saint Pagoda?”
Ye Yuan did not hesitate much either and nodded his head.
Cloudsky coming out, free pill refinement this play naturally could not carry on acting out anymore.
But Ye Yuan was not really putting on an act either. Although his words were partially-true, partially-false, him helping these people refine pills naturally also had the intention of resisting the fiend race in it.
It was impossible for him to help every martial artist refine pills. He could only do his best and leave the rest up to fate.
…
Inside the Heavenly Saint Pagoda, Cloudsky appeared incomparably cordial.
But in his heart, he had a splitting headache over Ye Yuan.
He discovered that the present Ye Yuan was really not that straightforward youth back then who only pursued alchemy Dao wholeheartedly anymore.
Although it was just a small twisting of his arm, Cloudsky was thoroughly defeated.
In terms of scheming, in terms of methods, Ji Qingyun was absolutely a troublesome adversary!
He was calculating in his heart how to send away this great deity.
Serving up good tea, Cloudsky retreated to the side and asked Ye Yuan with a radiant smile, “I wonder what business Younger Brother Ji came to the Holy City this time for?”
Ye Yuan did not reply. He just looked at Cloudsky with a smile that was not a smile, staring until he got goosebumps.
Seeing ghosts!
What kind of fortuitous encounter did this brat obtain in 20 years? His entire person was completely reborn!
Cloudsky secretly cursed in his heart.
“Huhu, Elder Brother Cloudsky asking this, could it be that I can’t come and find you if there’s nothing? Calculating it, you and I have not met for 50 to 60 years as well,” just as Cloudsky was at a loss on what to do, Ye Yuan said with a smile.
Cloudsky froze, not expecting Ye Yuan to actually say such words.
He thought that Ye Yuan was going to mention the fiend race’s matter the moment he opened his mouth and had long thought of a strategy to respond already.
Either way, Zhuge Qingxuan was not around. As long as he used ‘unable to make the decision’ as the reason and pushed everything to Zhuge Qingxuan, it would do.
But Cloudsky never thought that Ye Yuan actually started to chat about everyday life with him!
The cannon that was prepared could not be fired. Cloudsky nearly stifled out internal injuries.
“What kind of expression does Elder Brother Cloudsky have? Could it be that Elder Brother Cloud doesn’t care for this Ji to come and see you?” Ye Yuan suddenly furrowed his brows and said.
Only then did Cloudsky come back to his senses and hurriedly waved his hand and said smilingly, “No, no, of course not! For Younger Brother Ji to be able to think of Elder Brother, Elder Brother can’t even wait to be happy, how can I not care? Since Younger Brother came, why not stay in the Holy City and play for a few more days. It also lets Elder Brother carry out the hospitality of a host.”
I care my ass!
If I were to dare say a word of disagreement, you’d probably go to the plaza right away to refine pills again, right?
This guy simply craves to see the world plunged into chaos.
When Ye Yuan heard that, he nodded and said, “Since Elder Brother is so warmhearted, then this Ji thanks Elder Brother for your hospitality.”
Chapter 1090. Bloodrain Wilderness |
The smile on Cloudsky’s face was somewhat awkward. He did not think that Ye Yuan actually climbed up along the shaft and immediately agreed to it.
What was the meaning of this?
Could it be that this brat was planning on staying behind to fight a protracted war?
Cloudsky discovered that he actually could not figure out Ye Yuan’s thoughts.
This punk completely did not play cards according to order!
He clearly came for the matter of the fiend race and also successfully forced him out, but kept his mouth shut about the fiend race’s matter.
What was this playing at?
Ye Yuan’s words were said until Cloudsky did not even know how he should follow up.
Ye Yuan did not care about Cloudsky’s awkwardness at all and said smilingly, “The Holy City is the Divine Realm’s leader. This Ji has admired for a long time already. Coming this time, I can just nice take this opportunity to go on a proper sight-seeing.”
Only a ghost would believe you!
Cloudsky was unhappy in his heart, but had a smile on his face as he said, “If Younger Brother Ji wants to sight-see, this old man can personally be a guide.”
Ye Yuan said smilingly, “No need for that. Elder Brother Cloudsky deals with a host of problems every day. How can you take time from your main duties and attend to this sort of small matter? Moreover, there are still quite a number of people in the Heavenly Saint Plaza waiting for this Ji to go and refine pills. If Elder Brother Cloudsky were to follow me and refine pills all the way, how boring is that.”
Cloudsky was speechless. This brat went one big circle and actually circled back around.
Cloudsky’s expression darkened. He had also discerned that Ye Yuan had long known about the Holy City’s attitude. Hence, that was why he did not mention a word about the matter of the fiend race.
But now, Ye Yuan continued to linger around and not leave. It seemed like he had other requests.
This beating around the bush, no idea how long this brat was going to beat around for.
“Ji brat, what the hell do you want? But I warn you, don’t be too overboard. The Holy City’s mane are not what you’re capable of stroking!”
Cloudsky’s speed of turning hostile was even faster than turning pages of a book.
Just now, he was still all smiles and friendliness. At this instant, he struck with the force of a thunderbolt.
The moment his Void Mystic Realm aura released, that sense of oppression came from head-on.
A profound power of laws instantly appeared on Ye Yuan’s body. Cloudsky’s oppressive sensation instantly dissipated to nothing.
Cloudsky’s expression changed, and he said grimly, “Divine Dao laws! You … You actually comprehended divine inscriptions!”
Ye Yuan looked at him with a smile that was not a smile as he said, “Elder Brother Cloudsky’s skill of turning hostile has truly attained the acme of perfection! This Ji is in admiration! But, to say stroking your whiskers, it seems like I’ve already stroked before. After that, you still invited me here.”
Cloudsky could not help freezing when he heard that. When did this boy become so razor-tongued?
“Put away that ruse of yours. With your strength and status, if you really have confidence in making me stay, you’d have probably long made a move, right? About the divine artifact on this Ji, I don’t believe that you aren’t moved at all.” Ye Yuan continued with a calm and composed appearance.
Cloudsky was utterly defeated and instantly recalled his aura, looking at Ye Yuan like he had seen a ghost.
It was not once or twice that he had dealings with Ye Yuan. But he had never felt nowhere to bite down like today before.
As one of the Holy City’s three titans, Cloudsky always held a pearl of wisdom in his hands, taking every conceivable possibility into account.
But facing Ye Yuan, he had a feeling of having his hands and feet tied up today.
“What the hell do you want?” Cloudsky asked with a black face.
Ye Yuan said nonchalantly, “I want to enter the Bloodrain Wilderness!”
Cloudsky’s expression changed, and he immediately said, “Impossible!”
Toward Cloudsky’s reaction, Ye Yuan did not feel surprised. He just said calmly, “You know that I’m the son of heaven’s mandate, so you want to let me duke it out with the fiend race unchecked. Hence, that’s why you didn’t make a move on me. But how much threat do you think I can pose to the fiend race with my current realm?”
Cloudsky’s expression changed again and again. He was almost breaking down.
Ye Yuan actually even knew this sort of thing!
The son of heaven’s mandate, as well as the matter of the fiend race, were both the Divine Realm’s secrets. Many super holy lands with shallow foundations did not even know.
