Unrivaled Medicine God

by <unknown>

  As the master of a sect, these words from Luo Qingfeng were already considered a subtle apology.

  If it were an ordinary disciple, the trial would just be over. How could the sect master possibly say this kind of words? But Ye Yuan was different! He was too monstrous!

  The talent that Ye Yuan displayed was overly monstrous! Since it was proven that Ye Yuan did not harbor ill intent, the sect naturally had to nurture with full force and rope him in!

  Such a genius figure was where the hope of the sect laid. He would naturally be viewed as precious treasure!

  Ye Yuan obviously had the sense to appreciate the favor. He gave a bow towards Luo Qingfeng and said, "Sect Master is also considering the safety of the sect. Why would Ye Yuan bear a grudge? However . . . dare I ask, Sect Master, whether the bet earlier . . . is counted or not?"

  Murmuring!

  When Ye Yuan's words came out, everyone's gaze looked towards Yao Qian.

  Yao Qian's old face turned crimson red instantly as he felt pent up.

  "This . . ." Luo Qingfeng was also stumped by Ye Yuan.

  While Ye Yuan's Alchemy Dao level somewhat surpassed expectations, to make a Quasi-Alchemy King acknowledge him as master, Luo Qingfeng felt that it was still somewhat nonsensical.

  This way, how would Yao Qian dare to meet anyone in the future?

  Ye Yuan had a surprised look as he said, "Elder Yao, you aren't going to renege, are you? Well, I know that asking a Quasi-Alchemy King to acknowledge me as a master is somewhat hard on you, but from a certain point of view, my Alchemy Dao standards have already surpassed yours. Hence, you acknowledging me as master seems to be justifiable!"

  This was naturally Ye Yuan's humble words. His Alchemy Dao level was far from just surpassing Yao Qian's from a certain perspective. With Yao Qian's standards, he was not even fit to carry shoes for Ye Yuan.

  However, looking at this old man who nearly killed him being forced to yield, Ye Yuan had unspeakable delight in his heart!

  Right then, Xiao Jian suddenly thought of something and whispered a few words by Luo Qingfeng's ears.

  Luo Qingfeng's eyes lit up, and he said, "Various hall heads, elders, this matter is concluded. What are we still waiting here for? Why haven't you left quickly?"

  Chapter 231. Price |

  Ye Yuan just stared at Yao Qian with a smile.

  Yao Qian's face was so shock stricken that it was about to drip water. He stood there motionless, unable to leave.

  The group of elders' expression was weird as they left the refinement room. Of course, there was sympathy amidst the oddness.

  "Yii, Elder Ouyang hasn't left yet. Can it be that you want to acknowledge me as your master together with Elder Yao?"

  Ouyang Ming actually wanted to leave too. But his relation with Yao Qian was intimate. Leaving just like this was not very good.

  Furthermore, this incident, Yao Qian was also implicated by him. If he left, it would be too disloyal.

  Ouyang Ming's face repeatedly wavered, not knowing how to follow up.

  The bet was between Ye Yuan and Yao Qian. Sect Master Luo making everyone leave was already considering Yao Qian's face. It was not suitable for others to intervene.

  "What are you still standing there for, Elder Ouyang? Leave!" Luo Qingfeng had not left but shouted at Ouyang Ming instead.

  Ouyang Ming looked at Yao Qian awkwardly. Yao Qian sucked in deeply and said, "You leave first. I know what to do."

  "This . . ." Ouyang Ming more or less felt relief from a tensed heart. But he obviously could not show it on the surface.

  Ouyang Ming only left while looking back every few steps after Yao Qian nodded his head, and went out with Luo Qingfeng.

  After everyone exited the refinement room, Yao Qian sneered and said, "Ye Yuan, aren't you scared that your lifespan will be shortened by making a Quasi-Alchemy King acknowledge you as master?"

  Ye Yuan chuckled and said, "Isn't shortening my lifespan exactly what you hope for? I don't even mind, so why should you?"

  Yao Qian could not help choking up; his eyes spewing fire.

  Ye Yuan pretended to be shocked. "Aiya, is Elder Yao trying to silence me by killing me? The sect master is right outside. This isn't good."

  "Talk. What terms do you want?" Yao Qian forcefully pressed down the rage in his heart and said somberly.

  "Ah? What? What terms? I don't understand Elder Yao's meaning." Ye Yuan had a blank look.

  Yao Qian hated fiercely in his heart. This fellow was clearly pretending to be muddled, but yet, he had to play along with him.

  "Stop pretending! State your conditions! As long as it's not to acknowledge you as master, any conditions will do!"

  "Don't! With a Quasi-Alchemy King disciple, it would be so glorious if I go outside in the future. Why do I have to put out conditions?"

  An image involuntarily emerged in Yao Qian's mind. You don't know Yao Qian? A Quasi-Alchemy King! That's my disciple! How is it? I'm amazing, aren't I?

  "Puhwurk!" Yao Qian's chest felt stifled, and he felt a metallic taste in his throat. A mouthful of blood sprayed out.

  If this sort of situation really occurred, he would rather go die!

  Ye Yuan wanted to mess with him to death!

  Yao Qian could not imagine just how Ye Yuan could resolve the riddle that nobody could in the thousands of years of the Endless World's alchemy world.

  If not because he knew the prowess of the Tendon Gnawing Blood toxin, how could Yao Qian dare to make this bet with Ye Yuan!

  Yet, Ye Yuan really resolved this poison!

  Even with countless regrets, Yao Qian could not turn back time. The current Yao Qian had already sunk into a dilemma. A single misstep and his reputation would be utterly ruined!

  "Aiya, what's with you, Elder Yao. Well, looks like our Tranquil Cloud Sect treats the elders very well. There's too much blood in them that they can casually spit out a mouthful when they have nothing to do. En, en, I must work hard and cultivate so that I can get an elder position!"

  Ye Yuan did not hold any sympathy in his heart as he continued to pour salt on his wounds.

  Yao Qian merely had anger and anxiety inflict his heart. Vomiting a mouthful of blood was not a big deal to a Sea Transformation Realm powerhouse. Furthermore, as a Quasi-Alchemy King, Yao Qian could replenish the deficit in blood vitality just by casually eating some medicinal pills.

  Indeed, Yao Qian failed to endure, and another mouthful of blood sprayed out.

  Ye Yuan wanted to continue talking. Yao Qian could not be bothered with vomiting blood anymore and hastily said, "Ye Yuan, say it. How can I call off this bet?!"

  If he let Ye Yuan continue talking, he would really die today from vomiting blood.

  A Sea Transformation Realm powerhouse of his generation being angered to death by vomiting blood. This would absolutely shake the entire Endless World!

  Ye Yuan saw that the intensity was just about right. He blinked and said, "Elder Yao really doesn't want to be my disciple? Actually, being my disciple really isn't bad. I won't even let ordinary people be!"

  This was not Ye Yuan boasting. In his previous life, only God knew how many alchemists wanted to go under his tutelage. But Ye Yuan did not accept a single one.

  Ji Qingyun disliked that teaching disciples wasted far, far too much time, delaying his researching the Alchemy Dao.

  Yao Qian did not speak and just shook his head decisively. He was already on the verge of collapse.

  "Sigh, that's such a shame. I can't show off to others in the future," Ye Yuan said regretfully.

  "Quick . . . Quickly say your terms!"

  Now that it had come to this, Yao Qian was already prepared to bleed heavily.

  "Elder Yao is really generous. You know that sect disciples don't lead a good life. As a Pill Hall elder, Elder Yao should have quite a lot of points, right?" Ye Yuan enquired with a beam.

  Yao Qian's heart jolted. "How much do you want?"

  Ye Yuan reached out two fingers.


  "20 thousand?" Yao Qian's heart eased up. 20 thousand points were already quite a number to core disciples.

  "Is Elder Yao dismissing a beggar?"

  "200 thousand?"

  Yao Qian's eyes went wide. It was truly demanding an exorbitant price!

  Ye Yuan shook his head again. "Two million!"

  "Two million? Why don't you go rob?! Where do I have so many points?" Yao Qian was taken aback by Ye Yuan.

  Two million was also an astronomical figure to Yao Qian!

  He only accumulated a million plus points back then when he was hoarding for the Purple Center Soul Incantation.

  Although the elder position was high, expenses were high too. The points he had on hand were only roughly 500 thousand or so.

  2 million points were four times his total net worth!

  Seeing Yao Qian's expression, Ye Yuan also came to realize that his asking price seemed to be too high.

  He originally wanted 2 million to give Jiang Yunhe 1.4 million to exchange for the Purple Center Soul Incantation. Then, he would have 600 thousand left, which should be enough to use for a long time.

  It looked like this plan was going to go bust.

  "How much do you have?"

  "I only have 300 thousand!"

  "Like that huh, then no talk."

  "Wait, wait!" Yao Qian hurriedly said. "I . . . I can gather up to a million! But, two million are really too much. Even us elders can't possibly have that much! Two million points, even if I don't use points in the future, I would also need to amass them for 10 years! You can ask the other elders about this, and you'll know whether what I said is true or not."

  Ye Yuan rubbed his chin and was still quite dissatisfied. But since Yao Qian already said this, it was almost certainly the case. However, he was certain that Yao Qian definitely understated his own points.

  "1.2 million. No less."

  He had to pay some price since he wanted to call off the bet. The price was that Yao Qian would have to work for free for others several years after.

  Yao Qian did not say anything as his expression flickered indecisively.

  700 thousand points. He basically had to forget about doing other things for the next five years. It would essentially all be used to repay the debt.

  However, to really recover, it would require at least seven years!

  But compared to becoming Ye Yuan's disciple, he would rather spend his days in debt!

  Finally, Yao Qian gritted his teeth and said, "Fine! Deal!"

  Chapter 232. Distributing Wealth |

  "Senior Apprentice Brother Mo, quickly think of a plan! Ye Yuan hasn't returned yet. Did something happen to him?" Lu-er asked anxiously.

  "Yeah, Senior Apprentice Brother Mo. Among us here, only you have the right to talk. Why don't you go and inquire to see if they did anything to Ye Yuan?" Nanfeng Ruoqing also said.

  The few people were like ants on a hot pan, walking around Mo Yuntian non-stop.

  But Mo Yuntian also had a helpless face. "Not that I don't wish to help Junior Apprentice Brother Ye, but I really don't have to power to speak! The Tri-Hall Joint Hearing? I must be at the elder position and above to join. Furthermore, it's strictly confidential. It's simply impossible to inquire about the news."

  "Then . . . Then we just sit here and wait blankly? We have to do something!" Nanfeng Zhirou also voiced out.

  Mo Yuntian shook his head and said, "The only thing we can do now is to trust Master. With him present, he definitely won't let Ye Yuan suffer. Moreover, Ye Yuan's talent is plain for everyone to see. I believe that the sect master is unlikely to do something that would cripple the sect's prospects."

  The group discussed for a long time but did not come up with anything.

  Lu-er could not sit still anymore. "No way! I have to go find Young Master!"

  Finishing, she sprinted out of the door.

  But right after stepping outside, she just happened to see Ye Yuan who strolled into the court.

  Young Master was perfectly fine!

  When Lu-er saw that Ye Yuan was fine, the rock in her heart was finally put down.

  "Young Master, they didn't do anything to you, right?" Lu-er still asked rather worriedly.

  "Your family's young master is a Divine King's reincarnation! What can they do to your family's young master?" Ye Yuan cracked a partly-true, partly-false joke. Either way, nobody would believe him.

  "Will you die if you don't brag?! Don't you know how worried Lu-er was for you just now?" Nanfeng Zhirou also followed out and said exasperatedly.

  "Aren't I am fine? Haha, thanks so much for everyone's concern. Since everyone's here, that also saves me the trip of finding each of you one by one," Ye Yuan said with a chortle.

  "En? You just came from the Tri-Hall Joint Hearing. What are you looking for us for?" Long Tang asked rather puzzledly.

  "Go in and talk."

  The few people entered the house and sat down.

  "Senior Apprentice Brother Mo, Senior Apprentice Sister Nanfeng, Junior Apprentice Brother Long, the three of you take out your identity tokens. I have a large gift I want to give you guys," Ye Yuan said it bluntly.

  "En? Large gift? Can it be . . ." The people here were sharp-witted people. Hearing that Ye Yuan wanted their identity tokens, they naturally guessed what Ye Yuan wanted to do.

  But it was precisely so that they were even more skeptical.

  Wasn't Ye Yuan escorted to the Tri-Hall Joint Hearing? Why did he bring points back?

  Doubts were doubts, the three people still took out the identity tokens as asked.

  Ye Yuan also took out his own identity token and used soul force to transfer some points respectively.

  He originally needed so many points because he planned on giving them to Jiang Yunhe to exchange for the lower half of the Purple Center Soul Incantation.

  But now that there was still a huge chunk of points missing, Ye Yuan obviously needed to think of some other ways of earning points.

  He knew that it was very challenging for newly accepted sect disciples to stride forward, so he naturally would not be stingy. He distributed some points to Nanfeng Ruoqing and the others.

  Either way, there was still 200 thousand points to be earned. He did not care about this paltry amount.

  "10 . . . 10 thousand points? Ye Yuan, where did you get so many points from?" Nanfeng Ruoqing inserted her divine sense into the token and could not help being greatly alarmed.

  "Mine is also 10 thousand points!" Long Tang said.

  "Junior Apprentice Brother Ye, this . . . Isn't this way too much? You just entered the sect. There are still many areas you need to use points in. Although I don't know where your points came from, giving it to us like this, do you have enough left to use?" Mo Yuntian asked hesitantly.

  Ye Yuan chuckled and said, "Relax, Senior Apprentice Brother Mo, I have plenty of points. Come and look for me again after you use finish. Senior Apprentice Brother Mo, right now is the crucial period for you. You have many areas where you need points for. These bit of points to express this junior apprentice brother's goodwill."

  Mo Yuntian was presently at the Sixth Level Crystal Formation Realm and about to break through to the Seventh Level Crystal Formation Realm. He naturally could not avoid the cost for stepping into late-stage Crystal Formation Realm.

  Of course, Ye Yuan was not giving him so many points because of Mo Yuntian's expenses, but because he was indebted to him for saving his life.

  "But . . . this is too much!" Mo Yuntian was rather embarrassed.

  "Senior Apprentice Brother Mo, how many points did Ye Yuan give you?" Nanfeng Zhirou could not resist asking like a curious baby.

  "Uh, 50 thousand points!"

  "Hiss . . . What's going on? Ye Yuan, didn't you go to the Tri-Hall Joint Hearing? Why did you come back with so many points instead?" Nanfeng Ruoqing sucked in a cold breath.

  Ye Yuan snickered and recounted today's experience briefly to everyone, making them wide-eyed and dumbfounded.

/>   1.2 million points!

  Mo Yuntian stayed at the Tranquil Cloud Sect for 10 years and did not have so many points even if he added everything up!

  But Ye Yuan only used six days to get these.

  Mo Yuntian smiled bitterly and said, "To think that Junior Apprentice Brother Ye's alchemic talent actually do not pale in the slightest bit to your martial talent! However, you've offended the Ouyang Family to the core this time!"

  "No matter. Even if I don't offend them, they would also come and offend me. If they dare to come to find trouble with me again, I don't mind getting some more points," Ye Yuan said confidently.

  Right then, a symbol suddenly appeared in front of Mo Yuntian and started immolating, turning into ash instantly.

  A barely imperceptible streak of Essence energy tunneled into Mo Yuntian's ear.

  "It's the sound transmission talisman that Master sent. He asked me to bring Junior Apprentice Brother Ye to see him," Mo Yuntian said.

  "Hall Head Xiao? I'll go with you," Ye Yuan replied.

  This meeting with Xiao Jian, Ye Yuan absolutely had to go.

  . . . . . .

  Seeing Ye Yuan once again, Xiao Jian sighed unceasingly.

  He initially wanted to exert utmost effort at the Tri-Hall Joint Hearing to help Ye Yuan out of his predicament.

  He did not imagine that he did not help much, but Ye Yuan himself slaughtered his way in and out however he like, ultimately butchering Yao Qian until not even a fragment of armor was left.

  Although not a lot of time passed, the matter of Yao Qian giving Ye Yuan 1.2 million points was already circulating among the upper echelons.

  Yao Qian alone naturally did not have so many points. He had to find other people to lend points from. This incident obviously could not be concealed.
