Unrivaled Medicine God

by <unknown>

  After settling the business here, a blue-clothed figure fluttered over. Who could it be but Feng Zhirou?

  When Feng Zhirou came close, she stabbed towards Ye Yuan with her sword wordlessly.

  Ye Yuan hurriedly dodged and cried out, "Senior Apprentice Sister, I have something to say!"

  "Say your head! Have a taste of my sword first!" How could Feng Zhirou listen? With a wave of her hand, she struck with her sword again.

  Although Feng Zhirou's sword looked vicious, in truth, she did not use killing moves.

  Ever since nearly killing Ye Yuan previously, Feng Zhirou more or less learned her lesson.

  And the current Ye Yuan was no longer someone she could casually flatten with a sword. Of course, Ye Yuan naturally could not retaliate. He was in the wrong in the first place.

  "Senior Apprentice Sister, I did that all for you! Ahh!"

  While he was talking, another sword struck. Ye Yuan cried out and swiftly evaded.

  "For me? Sounds really nice! Do you know how much effort I spent to shake off that big stupid bear? Enough crap. Eat my sword!"

  Feng Zhirou was played by Ye Yuan and even had no choice but to help him draw away the Iron Paw Flying Bear. Her heart had so much pent-up anger.

  "You stop first alright, Senior Apprentice Sister? Aiya, hear me explain things carefully!" Ye Yuan said while dodging.

  "What's there to explain? Stand still for me and eat my sword first before we talk!"

  How could Feng Zhirou be willing to give in?

  The two people, one chasing, and the other fleeing. In a blink of an eye, over a dozen sword strikes were unleashed, but Ye Yuan just refused to stop,

  Ye Yuan was also chased until he became irritated. He suddenly halted and shut his eyes to let Feng Zhirou freely stab over.

  Feng Zhirou also did not expect Ye Yuan to suddenly play this move. She instantly jumped in fright. If this sword landed, how could Ye Yuan survive?

  Ye Yuan had given a lot of help to them aunt and niece. Feng Zhirou did not say it, but her heart was still rather grateful.

  Chasing down Ye Yuan was just to vent her anger, not to really hurt him,

  Ye Yuan's action came too suddenly. Feng Zhirou simply could not react. Withdrawing her sword at this time was already too late.

  But, Feng Zhirou was a Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm expert at any rate. Her control towards the sword already reached an extremely powerful level, and she managed to change the trajectory of the sword mid-path.

  This sword barely shaved by Ye Yuan's ear with immense trepidation.

  But right then, Ye Yuan's face and Feng Zhirou's face was practically plastered together.

  Ye Yuan had his eyes shut, and Feng Zhirou's exhalation smelled like orchids, unintentionally affecting Ye Yuan's mind.

  Feng Zhirou's pretty face went red first before taking a step back and yelling, "Are you mad, Ye Yuan? Do you know how dangerous that was just now?"

  Ye Yuan opened his eyes and suddenly cracked a smile. "If not like this, Senior Apprentice Sister won't give up! I know Senior Apprentice Sister cares for me and definitely won't kill me."

  "Don't give me that! Don't think I dare not kill you!" Feng Zhirou raised her sword again, but threatening again at this time appeared to be so weak and frail.

  Ye Yuan chuckled and pushed the sword aside. "Senior Apprentice Sister, if you want to kill me, you have to at least let me finish what I have to say first."

  Feng Zhirou kept away her sword and snorted. "Fine! I'll hear just what you have to say! But if you don't give a justifiable reason, you can walk the rest of the way yourself!"

  Finishing, Feng Zhirou was so peeved that she turned around.

  Ye Yuan smiled and said, "I give Senior Apprentice Sister a hundred years of youth. Is Senior Apprentice Sister still satisfied . . . with this explanation?"

  When Feng Zhirou heard those words, the anger on her face swiftly faded, and what took its place was curiosity.

  She turned around and curiously asked, "What hundred years of youth? Say clearly!"

  Ye Yuan laughed and explained the function of the Silver Sword Bee's honey.

  Feng Zhirou instantly became elated when she heard that. Clutching Ye Yuan, she asked, "Is what you said true? That whatever Beauty Retaining Pill can really maintain my appearance for a hundred years without aging?"

  Ye Yuan smiled and said, "A hundred years is just the beginning. If I perform above my usual standards and refine out a transcendent-grade Beauty Retaining Pill, then a hundred and fifty years is not an issue. Furthermore, not only can the Beauty Retaining Pill let you maintain your current appearance, it can even moisturize your skin, making it fairer than snow!"

  "Really? Then doesn't that mean that I'll look even better than now?" Where was there still any demeanor of a proud daughter of heaven presently on her? Feng Zhirou looked just like a little girl ignorant of worldly affairs.

  However, she could not be blamed for this. As long as one was a woman, regardless of how unparalleled her martial arts was or what a peerless beauty she was, they would still place a heavy emphasis on their appearance.

  Feng Zhirou was only a mortal country's little princess. In the future, she would surely grow old.

  Growing old like that was the most frightening thing for every woman. It was even more terrifying than dying. Hence, they would risk their lives to try and delay the coming of that day.

  Chapter 131. Despondent Sieging Team |

  Somewhere several hundred miles away from Ye Yuan and Feng Zhirou, four Spirit Condensation Realm martial artists were currently sieging a powerful lion type demonic beast.

  "Damn fellow! Chang One, attack its eyes! Chang Two, Chang Three, let's go and hold it back!" a youth commanded the other three people.

  "Yes, Young Master!"

  The trio acknowledged in unison.

  This lion type demonic beast was exceptionally powerful. It was already at the peak middle-stage Tier 2. It was already not far away from breaking through to the late-stage Tier 2.

  The four people actually appeared to be straining to deal with this demonic beast together!

  Following that youth's command, the other three people coordinated abnormally well, akin to one entity.

  Chang One leaped and landed on the head of the lion type demonic beast. The demonic beast naturally would not give this fellow free rein to threaten it. It raised its paw wanting to grab at Chang One.

  How could the other three give him this chance? Attacks akin to rain falling struck towards the lion type demonic beast's abdomen.

  After all, these were three middle-stage Spirit Condensation Realm martial artists. No matter how strong this demonic beast's defense was, it dared not let this sort of attack go unchecked.

  With no alternatives, that demonic beast retracted its paw and went from attacking to defending.

  But at this time, Chang One grabbed hold of the opportunity and pulverized that demonic beast's eye into mincemeat.

  Seeing the situation, the four people were euphoric. A series of attacks raided on the demonic beast again, directly sending it flying out.

  That demonic beast received heavy injuries. Not only did it not retreat, but it also went berserk.

  "Roar!"

  The lion type demonic beast gave a heavy roar and attacked the four people frenziedly.

  "Be careful! This is its death throes! Don't fight it head-on! Let's hit and run to slowly expend its strength. It can't hold on much longer!" the youth instructed.

  "Yes, Young Master."

  In reality, these three people were veterans. They also knew what to do without the young man's instructions.

  Before long, that lion type demonic beast collapsed on the ground. The four people let out a long sigh of relief.

  When the demonic beast died, the four slumped on the ground panting non-stop. They all suffered injuries which were not light.

  "Damn it! Being delayed by this demonic beast, we are getting further away from Ye Yuan!" The
young man swallowed a medicinal pill as he gnashed in teeth in hatred.

  This youth was precisely Su Yishan who was planning to kill off Ye Yuan during the Endless Trials, while the other three were the Su Family's retainers, the Chang trio brothers.

  There were many people when they just entered the forest, so they naturally could not make a move on Ye Yuan then.

  But who would have thought that Ye Yuan and Feng Zhirou walked faster and faster. They were actually unable to catch up.

  It was not that their speed was slow, but because there were demonic beasts continuously harassing them along the way.

  This demonic beast just now was the most powerful one they have encountered. Just the delay cost them a whole two hours!

  "Relax, Young Master. My Enchanted Shadow Bug has been following them this whole time. We'll catch up to them eventually." Chang One said.

  Su Yishan was aware of Chang One's tracking capabilities. It was just that he was feeling very annoyed. "I'm just wondering why the demonic beasts only attack us when Ye Yuan also walked through here."

  "This . . . Maybe it's also because we're unlucky," Chang One said uncertainly.

  Even with Chang One's rich experience, he could not think of a reason.

  "Luck? Isn't their luck way too good? We tracked all the way here, and the places they walked through didn't show any traces of fighting at all! That's to say that they didn't even go through a single battle while we have been through over a dozen big and small fights?"

  The more Su Yishan said, the angrier he got. Finally, a punch smashed heavily on the ground sending dirt flying.

  "Truly quite sinister! The road the two of them walked is basically a straight line as if they were running straight towards someplace. But in the Endless Forest, nobody had ever dared to journey like that. There are plenty of high-rank Tier 2 demonic beasts' territories along the way. If they accidentally startled them, they would lose a layer of skin even if they didn't die." Chang one also felt very depressed.

  "That's right! Don't tell me that those demonic beasts are all blind and deaf and simply couldn't sense them at all? At this rate, we will be exhausted to death by these demonic beasts before finding them!" Su Yishan said with fervent hatred.

  Initially, he thought that killing Ye Yuan in the Endless Forest was a very simple matter. He did not think that it would be riddled with troubles now.

  The further in they went, the stronger the demonic beasts got! Continuing in a straight line like this was definitely out of the question. They must avoid the territories of those powerful demonic beasts and go forward in a roundabout manner.

  But this way, when could they manage to find Ye Yuan and co?

  Before coming, Su Yubai already told him that the Endless Forest was the best as well as the final chance to eliminate Ye Yuan.

  If Ye Yuan left the Endless Forest, the Su Family would welcome never-ending troubles!

  Chang One also realized that the matter was rather troublesome now. Before coming out this time, the family head had already issued the death command. They must kill Ye Yuan!

  If the mission was not completed, then carry their own heads back!

  The family head had never issued such a command before. One could see just how great Ye Yuan's threat to the Su Family was!

  Chang One sucked in a deep breath and took out an Endless Forest map from his storage ring. Opening it, he placed it in front of Su Yishan.

  "Young Master, continuing like this is indeed out of the question. Since they are hurrying towards a certain place, why don't we find that place and then lie in ambush there?" Chang One suggested.

  Hearing this, Su Yishan immediately calmed down. He nodded and said, "What you said is right! Share your idea!"

  Chang One reached out with his finger and pointed on the map. "Look here, Young Master. Ever since they entered the Endless Forest, they didn't stop for a moment as they went along this straight line towards the North-West direction. With their strength, it's impossible to go somewhere too deep. It must be within an area of a thousand miles! Then, inside this thousand miles, where is the place they are most likely to go to?"

  "Crimson Summit Ridge!" Su Yishan blurted out.

  Chang One's finger started from the entrance and kept extending until a thousand miles in the North-West direction. That place impressively marked Crimson Summit Ridge!

  "Sii . . . Is Ye Yuan insane? To actually go to such a dangerous place like Crimson Summit Ridge!" Su Yishan sucked in a cold breath.

  Chang One shook his head and said, "Based on common sense, him going to the Crimson Summit Ridge naturally saves us from striking. But looking at the current situation, this Ye Yuan's methods are really hard to conjecture. Ignoring other things, just based on him being able to not alarm these high-rank demonic beasts along the way is already an incredible ability! And according to my estimation, it's highly likely that he's going to the Crimson Summit Ridge to find some medicinal herbs for that little maidservant of his!"

  Chang One's analysis struck deeply, practically exactly the same as the truth!

  Since they came to gang up and kill Ye Yuan, Chang One naturally did sufficient homework. He understood Ye Yuan very thoroughly. Even a minute detail like Lu-er was noticed.

  Su Yishan was forcefully shocked awake and could not help shooting a surprised gaze at Chang One, seeing him in a completely new light.

  No wonder Father sent him to siege Ye Yuan. This guy could not be underestimated!

  Very clearly, Chang One's analysis basically had no flaws. This was also the most logical explanation!

  Initially, Su Yishan was still worried about whether or not Ye Yuan would take part in this Endless Trials. Finally, his concern was proven to be superfluous.

  Ye Yuan was not foolish enough to think that he could spare him. But he still came. That meant that he had a reason to come no matter what!

  And this reason was exactly Lu-er!

  Chapter 132. Swaggering In! |

  "Then, what do you say we do now, Chang One?" Su Yishan actually sought for Chang One's opinion.

  Chang One also appeared to be rather surprised. He understood this Young Lord a little.

  Su Yishan had an ingrained pride and generally looked down on the Su Family's retainers like them.

  But today, he actually sought out his opinion.

  It looked like Su Yishan matured quite a bit during this period of time!

  Only such a Su Yishan was worthy of being the Su Family successor.

  Chang One no longer hesitated and stated his thoughts, "Regardless whether or not they went to the Crimson Summit Ridge, there is definitely a destination. And I'm afraid that it isn't going to be so easy for them to get that medicinal herb. We just have to chase after according to the direction the Enchanted Shadow Bug is pointing to and set up an ambush in advance. I figure he wouldn't be able to escape anyway! Let's keep heading towards this direction while avoiding some of the powerful demonic beasts' territories later on. This way, even if we detoured a little, it would at most be around half a day's time. We can definitely still make it!"

  Su Yishan ruminated for some time and felt that what Chang One said made sense.

  They were unaware of Ye Yuan's goal at the beginning, so they just blindly chased. In the end, the time delay from being impeded by demonic beasts increased instead.

  Since they have the direction now, they naturally need not fear them escaping. Circling around the powerful demonic beasts' territories might even be slightly faster.

  "Okay, we'll do as you said! Recuperate a while first and then set off!" Su Yishan instructed.

  . . . . . .

  Ye Yuan had settled things with Feng Zhirou. The pair swallowed another Breath Concealing Pill each and rushed over to the Crimson Summit Ridge.

  "Ye Yuan, were those four people all killed by you? You're actually already this powerful!"

  Feng Zhirou was still rather astonished by Ye Yuan's power. Those were four Spirit Condensation Realm martial artists, a
nd they actually all died in Ye Yuan's hands!

  Ye Yuan chuckled and said, "How can I have such capabilities? I just used some small tricks and made them kill each other for a while. That's why the results were like that."

  Only now did Feng Zhirou feel relieved. "So that's the case. Gave me a fright! If you could kill those four people alone, doesn't that mean that you already have the strength to rank in the top 30 of the Martial Roll?"

  Initially, the ranking everyone gave Ye Yuan was roughly around rank 50 on the Martial Roll.

  It was nothing difficult for this strength to defeat several ordinary Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm martial artists.

  Feng Zhirou knew that the strength of demonic beast hunters was greater than the average martial artist. Furthermore, there was a Third Level Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist among them. Ye Yuan was able to hold the four of them there. Raising another 20 places was nothing much.

  Ye Yuan was only at the Ninth Level Essence Qi Realm!

  Being at the Ninth Level Essence Qi Realm, he already possessed the strength of the top 30 on the Martial Roll. When he broke through to the Spirit Condensation Realm, just how terrifying would that be?

  Feng Zhirou felt that it was inconceivable just thinking about it.

  Luckily, Ye Yuan denied her conjecture. Otherwise, Feng Zhirou would really have felt that so many years of hard work went to waste.

  "You're really full of tricks! Several veterans were actually completely toyed by you!" After Feng Zhirou felt reassured, she could not help scorning Ye Yuan.

  Ye Yuan laughed and said, "Who asked this Junior Apprentice Brother, I, to be lacking in strength. If I didn't come up with some ruses, then wouldn't I be unable to even keep my life? Otherwise, Teacher Feng would not have made Senior Apprentice Sister come and protect me."

  After pondering, Feng Zhirou thought the same as well, but her mouth stated otherwise, "Don't give me that. Your life is tenacious as hell. You didn't even die when challenging the Nine Heavens Road. Looks like even the heaven can't be bothered to take you in."

  Ye Yuan laughed but did not reply.

  What Feng Zhirou said was really true. Ye Yuan did not take the Nine Heavens Road to heart, but he was clearly already dead in the Divine Realm. But now, he was standing here perfectly fine. Ye Yuan felt that this was like a dream just thinking about it now.
