  The manservant really took himself for some big shot and clasped his hands at Ye Hang, then took large strides and left.

  Feng San was so angry that he was gnashing his teeth in hatred by the side. With a displeased face, he said, "Owner, even a servant from the Drunken Star Manor dares to come to taunt us Fragrant Medicine Pavilion now! In my opinion, kill this punk first to teach the Drunken Star Manor a lesson!"

  Ye Yuan waved his hands and said with a smile, "This servant is just a small character. Wouldn't killing him show our incompetence even more? That we can only take our anger out on the Drunken Star Manor's servants? To find a ground, of course we have to find their family's adults!"

  Feng San's eyebrows jumped as he understood some meaning behind it. He said joyfully, "Owner means that . . ."

  Ye Hang took over the invitation and said playfully, "He, Wan Donghai, wants to use this Pill Grading Assembly to rule the State of Qin's alchemy world. I'm afraid that it's isn't so easy!"

  "Haha . . . I knew that the owner wouldn't admit defeat so easily!" Feng San was ecstatic when he saw that. But he immediately frowned again, saying, "Owner, it's said that Wan Donghai wants to launch three new types of medicinal pills by organizing this Pill Grading Assembly! Just an Essence Gathering Pill has already left us badly battered. If three more were to appear, we . . ."

  "Relax, Old Feng! Competing with medicinal pills, I . . . Errr . . . Should be us, father and son, have never feared anyone! This time, we're going to let everyone broaden their horizons!" Ye Hang said heroically.

  Feng San looked at Ye Hang, and his eyes could not help showing astonishment.

  Just now, Ye Hang clearly planned on saying himself, but when the words were at the tip of his tongue, he brought along Ye Yuan!

  A venerable Alchemy Grandmaster was actually deliberately bringing along his son. Why was that?

  . . . . . .

  In a courtyard within the imperial palace, Ye Yuan was currently lying on a vine chair, sitting with his ankle on his knees. There were even two beautiful palace maids fanning him from behind. He looked like he was enjoying himself very much.

  "Ye Yuan! Is your Beauty Retaining Pill finished refining yet? If it's not done, this princess will burn down this mansion and send you to heaven!"

  Nanfeng Zhirou's angry cry broke this courtyard's tranquility.

  Ye Yuan jumped in fright and hurriedly went out in big strides. Indeed, he saw Nanfeng Zhirou carrying a fire torch in her hands posing like she was lighting a fire. Nanfeng Ruoqing was covering her mouth while laughing behind Nanfeng Zhirou.

  This woman would do what she said. A single mishap and she would really burn this place.

  "Don't, don't, don't! My grandaunt, this is your family's house, what are you burning it for?"

  "I don't care! Today, if you don't refine the Beauty Retaining Pill for me, I'll burn this place!"

  "Seriously, can't you wait for two days? My injuries have just healed. I also just refined the Essence Yang Pill two days ago and sapped a great deal of my vitality. You at least got to give me time to rest, right? Otherwise, if I were to ruin the refinement of the Beauty Retaining Pill, wouldn't that destroy Senior Apprentice Sister's unparalleled looks?"

  After coming out from the underground cave, Ye Yuan let Nanfeng Zhirou bring him to hide in the palace. Just like this, Su Yishan and Ye Yuan disappeared at the same time.

  Ye Yuan had ready-made medicinal pills on him, but his injuries this time were too severe. He only barely managed to recover after recuperating for three days.

  After recovering, Ye Yuan refined the Essence Yang Pill without delay and let Nanfeng Zhirou deliver it to the Dan Wu Academy in secret.

  Ever since Ye Yuan recovered, Nanfeng Zhirou had been thinking about her Beauty Retaining Pills. She would come here every day to compel Ye Yuan to refine it.

  But Ye Yuan's body right now was indeed not that great. So it was delayed a few days.

  The ill-tempered but beauty loving Nanfeng Zhirou finally could not endure it anymore today, so she ran here to threaten Ye Yuan!

  "I don't care! I must see the Beauty Retaining Pill today!" Nanfeng Zhirou refused to yield.

  Right at this time, a voice sounded out from behind them. "Zhirou, back off! Don't be mischievous!"

  "Ah, Imperial Father! I . . . I was joking with Ye Yuan! Right, Ye Yuan?" Nanfeng Zhirou used her gaze to threaten Ye Yuan.

  The middle-aged man in front of Ye Yuan was as handsome as jade and had a grandiose manner. The air of a king could not be covered up no matter what!

  This person was precisely Nanfeng Ruoqing's Imperial Brother, Nanfeng Zhirou's father, the State of Qin's Emperor, Nanfeng Yi!

  This was also the first time Ye Yuan met Nanfeng Yi. This person gave him the deep feeling like he was in grasp of everything.

  Nanfeng Yi was sizing up Ye Yuan, but at the same time, Ye Yuan was also appraising Nanfeng Yi without the intention of saluting.

  An Alchemy Emperor had the pride of an Alchemy Emperor. Even if he rebirthed, it was also impossible to kneel down and salute a mortal emperor.

  Nanfeng Yi did not mind Nanfeng Zhirou and only said coolly, "Ruoqing, you bring Zhirou back first. I have some things to say to Little Brother Ye."

  Nanfeng Yi actually gave tacit consent to Ye Yuan's rude actions!

  "Yes." Nanfeng Ruoqing received the command and brought her niece back. The few palace maids naturally also withdrew.

  However, while Nanfeng Ruoqing did not show anything on the surface, she was very alarmed in her heart.

  Imperial Brother actually called Ye Yuan as Little Brother!

  This sort of address was undoubtedly placing Ye Yuan on equal footing as him!

  In Nanfeng Ruoqing's impression, she had never seen Imperial Brother place a person so highly before. And this person was merely a 15 years old child!

  For the emperor to address his subjects as brothers, just hearing it sounded very peculiar!

  While Nanfeng Ruoqing knew that Ye Yuan was not an ordinary child, this term of address by Nanfeng Yi was still sufficient to alarm her.

  After Nanfeng Ruoqing and the rest left, Nanfeng Yi and Ye Yuan entered the courtyard and sat down in the pavilion in the garden.

  "I'm indebted to Little Brother Ye for having taken care of my daughter and sister these few days. I express my thanks to Little Brother Ye on their behalf." Nanfeng Yi actually gave thanks right away, making Ye Yuan somewhat surprised.

  "Your Majesty is too serious. It's just the effort of lifting a hand, not worthy of thanks. Furthermore, they also helped me quite a bit." Ye Yuan accepted it calmly and did not decline anything.

  From the other party's attitude, he could also see that his matter was already also long known by Nanfeng Yi through Nanfeng Ruoqing and niece.

  Nanfeng Yi waved his hand and said, "That's not the same. The aid you gave them is enough for them to use their entire lives!"

  Ye Yuan just smiled and said, "I'm afraid that Your Majesty didn't look for me just to give thanks, right? Let's go straight into the main topic. I don't like to beat around the bush."

  Chapter 181. The Teetering Imperial Family |

  Nanfeng Yi was stunned when he heard that. He did not think that this youth actually did not save the lightest bit of face for him.

  Not mentioning about his identity as the emperor, just the fact that he was a Crystal Formation Realm expert, most likely not many Spirit Condensation Realm martial artists dared to be this impudent.

  However, he also knew the pride of peerless geniuses like Ye Yuan.

  The peerless geniuses who could make it past the Nine Heavens Road would undoubtedly be existences that would break out from the State of Qin! Therefore, Ye Yuan had the capital to be proud.

  Nanfeng Yi naturally did not know that Ye Yuan was emboldened to talk to him on an equal basis because he possessed a Tier 3 demonic beast as a servant!

  Nanfeng Zhirou did not tell Nanfeng Yi about the matter of Yuan Fei, because she promised Ye Yuan
that she would tell no one.

  After returning, Nanfeng Zhirou even hid it from Nanfeng Yi.

  "Cough, cough."

  Nanfeng Yi coughed to hide his embarrassment before saying, "I wonder, what's Little Brother Ye's view of the Drunken Star Manor's Pill Grading Assembly?"

  Ye Yuan curled his mouth and said disdainfully, "Just a bunch of performing clowns. What Pill Grading Assembly? With Wan Donghai's paltry abilities, what does he know about grading pills! If my guess isn't wrong, this matter was cooked up by the Su Family. Wan Donghai is merely the puppet pushed onto the front stage by them."

  Nanfeng Yi was astounded as he said, "To think that Little Brother Ye can actually see it so thoroughly! To our understanding, the Drunken Star Manor's Essence Gathering Pill originated from the high sect's Pill Hall! And this time, they even acquired the new types of medicinal pills from the Pill Hall to beguile the minds of people. Such intentions are condemnable!"

  This time, it was Ye Yuan's turn to be stunned. "Oh? Came from Tranquil Cloud Sect's Pill Hall? Looks like this Pill Hall has some capabilities, to have actually developed so many new medicinal pills."

  Ye Yuan's research into medicinal pills was incomparable to anyone else's. He was very much aware of just how difficult it was to develop new medicinal pills.

  With the Boundless World's medicinal pills cognition, for the Pill Hall to have actually developed so many new medicinal pills was adequate to see the power of the Pill Hall's might.

  Although these new medicinal pills were worthless in Ye Yuan's eyes, in other people's eyes, they were immense breakthroughs.

  "That's a given. Ever since the Tranquil Cloud Sect's founder, You Wuya ascended, they had been through a period of degradation. All the way until the 11th generation Sect Master, Ouyang Tuotian came into the world and led the Tranquil Cloud Sect's revival with his own strength! But Ouyang Tuotian was not known for his martial prowess. He was an Alchemy Sovereign of his generation! During the period he took over as Sect Master, he used medicinal pills to create countless experts! It was also then that Tranquil Cloud Sect finally formed the scenario where the Martial Hall and the Pill Hall pitted against each other," Nanfeng Yi explained.

  Ye Yuan gave a look of realization. Only now did he know the origin of the Tranquil Cloud Sect's Martial Hall and Pill Hall.

  "Like this huh! Looks like Your Majesty came to look for me because you feel the pressure. If you had known beforehand, you should have acted differently then. If you had eradicated the Su Family earlier, there wouldn't be so many problems." Ye Yuan also roughly guessed Nanfeng Yi's purpose in coming.

  Now, the only one who could contend with the Drunken Star Manor was the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion.

  Nanfeng Yi came to look for Ye Yuan naturally because he wanted to let the Ye Family coordinate with the Nanfeng Family to wreck the Pill Grading Assembly this time.

  Nanfeng Yi smiled bitterly and said, "You think I didn't want to? Do you know why the Su Family can get so many medicinal pills from the Pill Hall?"

  "En? Could it be that there are people on top of the Su Family?"

  Nanfeng Yi nodded and said, "Su Yulin's younger sister married a Pill Hall's elder, Ouyang Ming, twenty years ago. Even though the high sect has rules that members of the sect are not to interfere with secular affairs, it's still an easy matter for the Ouyang Family to help out the Su Family occasionally. Otherwise, how do you think Su Yubai became the Dan Wu Academy's Disciplinary Hall's First Elder? If not for the fact that his strength is insufficient, the position of Dean would probably have been taken by the Su Family long ago!"

  Ye Yuan finally realized that there was actually so many things interlaced in between. No wonder Su Yubai could cover the skies with one hand inside the academy and nobody dared to make a sound!

  The Su Family had people in the Tranquil Cloud Sect, that was why Nanfeng Yi held back in fear these few years and did not dare to attack the Su Family, resulting in rearing a tiger to one's own detriment!

  Also, no wonder the Nanfeng Family's people were so low-key, and it also explained why the Imperial Family would support Ye Hang to contend with Wan Donghai. There was actually so much karma mixed inside.

  From this, it seemed that Father's and Wan Donghai's antagonism was actually essentially the Imperial Family and Su Family challenging in the dark!

  Looking at this, everything could be explained.

  However, from the former situation, regardless of whether it was the Imperial Family or the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion, they both held the clear disadvantage!

  This time, the Su Family got so many new medicinal pills from the Pill Hall and also stirred up the entire city by organizing a Pill Grading Assembly. Most likely, it was already time for the map to be unrolled to reveal the dagger.

  And because of this, Nanfeng Yi finally could not sit still.

  "Then . . . Your Majesty is looking for me for?" Ye Yuan could not help asking curiously.

  "The Su Family's and the Wan Family's activities are already so rampant. I've secretly arranged for people to pay a few visits to the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion, but your honorable father has always been in closed-seclusion. I'm afraid . . ."

  So, Nanfeng Yi was worried the Ye Hang was avoiding the fight. In that case, the Nanfeng Family would have no path of retreat at all.

  Even if it was a passing thought, Ye Yuan was still rather displeased. No matter who it was, nobody wished for their own father to be used as a chess piece.

  Now, in this sort of situation, if Ye Hang really failed, he would likely be the first target the Su Family and the Wan Family want to eliminate. At that time, whether the Imperial Family would lend a helping hand or not was another matter altogether!"

  "Your Majesty wishes to let my father lead the vanguard. I wonder what kind of methods the Imperial Family have prepared? If the Su Family is really overthrowing, what does Your Majesty plan to do?" Ye Yuan's tone gradually grew colder.

  Even though Nanfeng Yi was Nanfeng Zhirou's father and Nanfeng Ruoqing's older brother, his relation to Ye Yuan was zilch.

  If the Imperial Family were destroyed, Ye Yuan would not mind rescuing Nanfeng Ruoqing and niece, but to make him slog it out for the Imperial Family based on this was a no-no.

  Not to mention that Nanfeng Yi was still scheming against Father at this time.

  "This . . ."

  "Your Majesty calls me 'Little Brother Ye' simply because you took a fancy to my future status. But have Your Majesty ever thought that if the Imperial Family no longer existed, what's the point of you making friends with me, this future Core Disciple?" Ye Yuan ridiculed mercilessly.

  "Ye Yuan, you're insolent!" Nanfeng Yi finally could not hold back his rage.

  Ye Yuan was actually cursing the Imperial Family to be destroyed. This was something intolerable to him!

  "Hur hur, insolent? No matter how insolent I am, can I be more insolent than the Su Family? Actually, Your Majesty knows clearly in your heard that the Imperial Family has reached an extremely precarious situation now. Even if I'm not insolent, can Your Majesty alter the outcome? Now that it's already like this, why is Your Majesty acting like you have a concrete plan? Could it be that Your Majesty is relying on sending my father to go and die? Does Your Majesty think that by sending my father out, it can eliminate the Su Family's ambition?" Ye Yuan said with a sneer.

  An extremely terrifying aura was released. It was the powerful aura belonging to a Crystal Formation Realm martial artist.

  But Ye Yuan did not budge an inch when facing this aura.

  "Hur hur, I advise the Imperial Family to cool down! At this time, offending your only ally is not a wise move!" Ye Yuan said nonchalantly.

  Nanfeng Yi's expression changed, and he immediately put away his aura.

  Chapter 182. Gifting Pill |

  "You aren't thinking that the Wan Family and the Su Family will let your Ye Family off, right? This Pill Grading Assembly is pointing straight at the Imperial Family in the dark, but on the surface, i
t's pointing towards the Ye Family!"

  After staying silent for a long time, Nanfeng Yi finally said this.

  Ye Yuan laughed when he heard that and said, "Don't be mistaken, Your Majesty! Now that it's arrived at this, everyone in the State of Qin can choose to surrender. Only the Imperial Family cannot! For Your Majesty to threaten me with such words, are you too powerless?"

  Ye Yuan finished talking, and Nanfeng Yi's face changed once again.

  He initially thought that Ye Yuan was young and slightly easier to deal with. Who would have thought that Ye Yuan saw things more clearly than anyone else!

  Although Nanfeng Yi had paid close attention to Ye Yuan for a long time, this was still the first time he came into contact with him in the true sense.

  All the prior senses were obtained through Nanfeng Ruoqing and niece.

  Now, Nanfeng Yi felt that this Ye Yuan was even harder to deal with that his father, Ye Hang!

  Nanfeng Yi took in a deep breath before saying, "Ye Yuan, I wonder when is your father coming out of seclusion. If he still doesn't exit seclusion, even if the Ye Family wants to surrender, it's also futile, correct?"

  But Ye Yuan just smiled when he heard that and said, "Your Majesty, since my father is in seclusion, I naturally have the final say in all of Ye Family's matters! Since Your Majesty came to seek me out, you're probably also eyeing this point, right?"

  Nanfeng Yi revealed an embarrassed look, but Ye Yuan had poked his vital point.

  He was really quite anxious. Ye Hang did not exit seclusion for a long time. The Imperial Family no longer had any buffer space. He only came to find Ye Yuan having no other alternatives, hoping to get Ye Hang to exit seclusion through Ye Yuan to resolve the immediate predicament.

  But who would have thought that Ye Yuan was much harder to deal with than he imagined!

  Nanfeng Yi sucked in a deep breath. This time, he finally truly placed Ye Yuan on equal footing as him to converse.

  "Speak then! What request does the Ye Family have?" Nanfeng Yi said in solemnly.
