Unrivaled Medicine God

  But Ye Yuan's words made Li Hong rather befuddled.

  "Young Master Ji, what's the meaning of your words?" Li Hong asked puzzledly.

  Ye Yuan's words were rather baffling; they were without rhyme or reason, making it very hard for people to understand.

  Ye Yuan smiled and said, "You're dead, but he's still alive. How will you accompany him? At that time, not only do you have to shoulder infamy for life, you make your close brother feel guilty for life. Why is there a need?"

  When Li Hong heard Ye Yuan's words, he was first overjoyed but immediately smiled wryly and said, "Many thanks for Young Master Ji's comforting. It's just that Li Yang is indeed already dead. There are so many people here. They couldn't all have misjudged, right?"

  Ye Yuan was just about to speak when an elderly man snorted coldly and said, "Where did this ignorant child come from?! Li Yang is already utterly without life and doesn't have the slightest hint of a living person. You actually dare to shoot your mouth off here! Can it be that so many of us Sea Transformation Realm experts' eyes are all blind?"

  Ye Yuan glanced at him and said nonchalantly, "That's right. Your eyes are indeed all blind!"

  Ye Yuan's words caused a hubbub. There were seven to eight Sea Transformation Realm experts inside this inner hall.

  Especially the patriarch and another old man. They were both Ninth Level Sea Transformation Realm existences.

  Ye Yuan was only a Second Level Crystal Formation Realm brat. To actually call a bunch of Sea Transformation Realms blind people, wasn't his gall a little overly fat?

  Li Hong was greatly frightened when he heard this and hastily held back Ye Yuan, saying, "Young Master Ji, thank you very much for your good intentions. Li Hong appreciates it! Li Hong is unable to repay your great kindness in this life. I can only repay it in my next life! But Young Master Ji, take care not to offend Patriarch and the various elders because of Li Hong. Otherwise, Li Hong cannot die in peace!"

  This Li Hong was silly until it was cute. But he really was a loyal person. It was just that this sort of thing like dying to show consciousness had to be done meaningfully.

  "Truly laughable! If you say that Li Yang is not dead, why don't you try calling him to make him reply?!" said the old man earlier, reproaching Ye Yuan.

  Ye Yuan raised his eyebrows and said smilingly, "What happens if I make him respond?"

  The elderly man sneered and said, "If you make him respond, I'll kowtow to you on the spot to apologize!"

  "Then very well. You get ready to kowtow and apologize," Ye Yuan said coolly.

  "Hang on! What if you call and he doesn't respond?" The old man pressured.

  "Want to play big, is it? Fine! I'll play with you! How about this, if I call and he doesn't answer, Li Hong and I will commit suicide together to offer an apology. But if I make him respond, you cripple your entire cultivation. Dare or not? You're already in a highly advantageous position." Ye Yuan counter-checked and said.

  The old man's face changed. Self-crippling cultivation was not something to joke about. Furthermore, looking at this boy's fully confident appearance, it seemed like he really had some capabilities.

  At this time, an old man who sat at the helm stood up to denounce, "Utter nonsense! The deceased is the most important. What motives do you have, boy, to talk such drivel here? Come, men, take him down!"

  Li Hong's expression changed drastically when he saw the situation and hurriedly said, "Vice-Patriarch Yun, Young Master Ji is doing it all for Li Hong. That's why he did such a rash action. I beseech Vice-Patriarch Yun not to take offense!"

  That vice-patriarch Yun snorted coldly and said, "You, a traitor, still have the gall to talk! Come men, take them down!"

  Ye Yuan had a leisurely look and paid no notice to this. He just said coolly, "Lord Patriarch, somebody doesn't wish for your beloved son to resurrect!"

  Patriarch's originally lifeless eyes were abruptly shocked awake when he heard these words. He hurriedly said, "All stop for me!"

  Patriarch stood up unexpectedly and came before Ye Yuan, asking with an oppressive aura, "Is Little Yang really not dead?"

  When Lan Feng saw the situation, he quickly wanted to block in front of Ye Yuan but was stopped by the latter.

  "Not dead," Ye Yuan was not affected in the slightest bit and said indifferently.

  "Fine! You give it a shot! But if I discover that you're using Little Yang for a joke, you know the consequences!" When the patriarch reached the latter part of his sentence, killing intent seethed.

  Under everyone's astonished eyes, Ye Yuan patted the patriarch's shoulders and said casually, "Oh relax. I won't wreck my own signboard."

  This sort of thing like joking with the patriarch's son, nobody dared to laugh!

  Everyone felt that Ye Yuan went insane. Provoking the patriarch like this, was he really complaining that he had lived for too long?

  Li Yang was clearly a dead person already. How could he possibly revive? Could it be that so many elders could not even tell a person's life and death?

  Especially Li Hon, seeing Ye Yuan pat the patriarch's shoulder, his heart almost jumped out of his throat.

  This was their lord patriarch! A peak Ninth Level Sea Transformation Realm existence! If he slapped a palm down, Ye Yuan would be smacked into minced paste.

  Li Hong had perceived Li Yang's body long ago. It was simply without any vital energy. How could he possibly revive?

  He pulled on Ye Yuan's sleeve desperately. But Ye Yuan directly ignored him.

  These people naturally could not hear that Ye Yuan was guaranteeing in the name of his Alchemy Emperor reputation!

  Nothing was more dependable than such a guarantee!

  Under everyone's gaze, Ye Yuan leisurely went beside the coffin. Li Yang was lying inside with a peaceful look currently as if he was asleep.

  From his aura, one could sense that he was a Half-Step Sea Transformation Realm expert before his death.

  Li Yang's age should be more or less around Mo Yuntian's. But he already had half a foot into Sea Transformation Realm. Indeed a rarely seen genius. It was also no wonder that Li Hong was so devoted to him.

  Ye Yuan breathed in deeply and shut his eyes.

  "Looking at this young man's confident look, Young Patriarch wouldn't really be able to revive from the dead, right?"

  "What nonsense are you saying?! Young Patriarch's breathing has already ceased; utterly without any vital energy. How can he possibly rise from the dead?"

  "But . . ."

  "But what? This punk is clearly kicking up a cloud of dust! I also don't know where this wild boy came from, to actually boast so shamelessly and profane Young Patriarch's remains!"

  Towards Ye Yuan's words, the Cloud Prancing Tribe's members all scoffed with upturned noses.

  Li Yan looked Li Hong's sleeves and said softly, "Young Master Ji, he . . ."

  Li Hong heaved a sigh and said, "Sigh, I also don't know what to do. Wait and see I guess."

  Right at this time, Ye Yuan's eyes opened. A hand lightly smacked the coffin. Li Yang's corpse stood up straight as a ramrod.

  Ye Yuan rose into the air, both hands swiftly prodded on Li yang's various acupoints!

  With each jab, pale yellow essence energy would be sent into Li Yang's acupoint, looking extremely dazzling.

  Except, Li Yang's body did not react at all. Everyone could not sense his vital energy either.

  After a hundred breaths, Ye Yuan circled around in the air and arrived behind Li Yang, smacking a palm down viciously!

  Only to hear a spray. A mouthful of black blood spewed out of Li Yang's mouth!

  Then, he fell back down into his coffin stiffly.

  Everyone held their breaths . . .

  "How is it? How is it? Did Young Patriarch wake up?"

  "No. I still don't sense his life force! Look at this boy putting on such airs, he isn't messing with us, right?"

  "Sigh! Young Patriarch was
a good person, and his cultivation was powerful too. He was the indisputable choice for the next patriarch! Although I know that it's impossible, I still hoped that this boy could bring him back to life. Looks like . . ."

  "Yeah! Truly heaven is envious of gifted talents! A favored child of heaven like Young Patriarch actually died young!"

  The clansmen were all discussing fervently. But most people would rather think that their own thoughts were wrong and hope that Ye Yuan could really revive Li Yang.

  One can tell from their clamors of comments that Li Yang's relationship with people in the Cloud Prancing Tribe was really very good.

  It was just that looking at the vital energy in Li Yang's body, Ye Yuan was indeed still deceiving everyone!

  The elderly man that was bickering with Ye Yuan previously was precisely Master Dao Yuan. He also secretly broke into a sweat earlier. After all, Ye Yuan's 'acting' was too authentic. It even frightened a master like this.

  Now, seeing that it was a false alarm, Master Dao Yuan hated Ye Yuan even more.

  When the vice-patriarch saw the situation, he looked at Ye Yuan with an icy smile and said, "Boy, what do you still have to say now? Little Yang has already passed away, and you actually profaned his remains. Truly the most atrocious of crimes!"

  The patriarch's eyes looked straight at Ye Yuan, his entire body trembling. Anyone could tell his fury at this time.

  "Boy, you're courting death!" The patriarch gritted his teeth as he spat each word out slowly.

  He was already bristling with rage!

  His son died, and the corpse still had to be fiddled by Ye Yuan for so long. Whoever encountered this sort of matter would also go nuts!

  The patriarch walked towards Ye Yuan one step at a time. With each step he took, his aura would rise a level!

  Lan Feng's expression was also grim when he saw the situation. Facing a Peak Ninth Level Sea Transformation Realm with his strength was also the outcome of certain death.

  But even if he died, he could not allow Ye Yuan to suffer any harm at all!

  Rather, it was Ye Yuan who patted his hands with a very exhausted look. He was unperturbed by the patriarch's fury as if the target of the patriarch's wrath was not him.

  Seeing Ye Yuan's appearance, the patriarch was even more furious. His figure vanished suddenly. A palm with an irresistible force arrived in front of Ye Yuan.

  "Cough, cough . . ."

  Right at this moment, a bout of intense coughing sounded from inside the coffin. The patriarch shuddered and halted this palm!

  And right then, his palm was only a distance of three inches away from Ye Yuan!

  Ye Yuan remained calm without batting an eyelid and said coolly to the patriarch, "Li Yang is awake. Aren't you going to go say hi to him?"

  The patriarch was stupefied. Only now did he suddenly woke up to the reality of what had happened. He hurriedly sidestepped Ye Yuan and ran to Li Yang's side.

  With this look, the patriarch's tears involuntarily flowed down his old face. Li Yang, he . . . actually woke up!

  Li yang struggled a little to open both eyes. The scenery before him went from fuzzy to clear.

  "F-Father?" Li Yang called out feebly.

  "L-Little Yan . . . you really . . . you really woke up! Father . . . Father thought that I could never see you again!"

  At this moment, the patriarch felt that the entire world had returned!

  The feeling of losing a beloved child and finding him again was really stupendous!

  While on the other side, Li Hong's entire being was dead tired when he saw that Ye Yuan was fine.

  That instant when Patriarch's palm fell, he really even had the thought of dying. Li yang died because he did not arrive in time. Now, Ye Yuan also died because of him. Li Hong really felt like that there was no more need for him to live in this world!

  When Patriarch left to go over to his son, Li Hong hurriedly ran to Ye Yuan. "Young Master Ji, a-a-are . . . you okay?"

  Li Hong's nervousness still had yet to fade away until now. He was stammering as he spoke.

  Ye Yuan smiled faintly and said, "He didn't get to hit me either. I'm fine."

  Only after getting an affirmative answer from Ye Yuan did Li Hong really set his mind at east. "Then that's good! That's good! If any mishap were to happen to you, I really wouldn't know what to do. Ah, yes! What kind of magic did you cast, to actually revive Li Yan from the dead?!"

  Ye Yuan said huffily, "Revive my *ss! He wasn't dead from the start. I just helped him to open up his blocked meridians to let him take a breath!"

  "Di-Didn't die? How's that possible? Even Master Dao Yuan, Patriarch, and Vice-Patriarch, all confirmed that Li Yang already died. I also really couldn't sense his vital energy anymore. How was he possibly not dead?" Li Hong asked in confusion.

  Ye Yuan curled his mouth and said, "Even if I tell you, you won't understand either. Humans are born with qi. Looking at whether a person is dead or not, you can't just look at vital signs and his breathing. You still have to gaze at qi! Li Yang just died yesterday, and his qi was not cut off yet so it wasn't considered genuine death. Any later, then even I would be powerless."

  Li Hong had a mystified look. He completely could not understand what Ye Yuan was saying.

  He grew up so big and had never heard of what was called 'qi' before. He knew vital energy, but that was clearly an entirely different concept from the qi Ye Yuan said.

  It was also normal that Li Hong did not know. Because this talk of 'gazing at qi,' it was simply impossible for the Lower Realms to know!

  Only alchemists with extremely high accomplishments and also cultivated related divine soul mystic arts could see qi.

  To alchemists, death was not by looking at vital energy, breathing, heartbeat, these things, but to look at qi.

  When Ye Yuan came in, he saw that some faint qi still existed on Li Yang's body and knew that there was still hope of revival.

  And the finger technique that he just executed was called Tempered Profound Gold Finger; much higher end than that whatever Profound Phantom Finger that Wan Donghai displayed back then.

  Ye Yuan once used this set of finger technique to save innumerable people, and today, a Li Yang was added to it.

  This set of finger technique had a total of nine levels, corresponding respectively to the nine major realms. Ye Yuan was already Second Level Crystal Formation Realm currently. Displaying the third level of this finger technique was not overly strenuous.

  "Then . . . Li Yang will get well very soon, right?" Li Hong asked very ignorantly.

  Originally, he thought that he would get a definitive answer. Who knew that Ye Yuan would shake his head and say, "Well? Still early! I only helped him to tidy up his obstructed meridians. But that can only treat the symptoms, not the root. In a couple of days, he will still die!"

  "Ah! Then . . . Then what can we do?" Li Hong exclaimed.

  Ye Yuan said grumpily, "What can we do? Too bad! What has Li Yang's life and death got the hell to do with me?! I was just in a bad mood looking at those few old men, so I put them all in a bad mood too!"

  Coincidentally, the patriarch also heard Ye Yuan's words. He hurriedly supported Li Yang out of the coffin and arrived before Ye Yuan to give a deep bow, saying with an apologetic look, "Little Brother, this old man had a moment of rashness just now and almost hurt Little Brother. I really deserve death! This old man apologizes to Little Brother for this offense. I hope that Little Brother is magnanimous enough to forgive!"

  Ye Yuan rolled his eyes and said, "Was that you trying to hurt me? If your son didn't cough a couple of times, I would have already croaked on the spot and accompanied your son in death, right?"

  The patriarch's face went red. But he was someone who had experienced strong winds and big waves before. He hastily said, "It's all this old man's fault, it's all this old man's fault! Little Brother, on account of this old man being overly anxious about my beloved son, overlook this, alright?"

  Ye Yuan waved his hands and said with a smile, "Not going to quibble with you."

  Without waiting for the patriarch to heave a sigh of relief, Ye Yuan said unhurriedly, "But . . ."

  Patriarch swallowed his saliva and carefully followed up, "But what, Little Brother?"

  Ye Yuan's eyes looked towards Master Dao Yuan and Zhu Shan with ill-intention and said with a grin, "But I want to nitpick with them!"

  When Dao Yuan and Zhu Shan heard Ye Yuan's words, their expressions changed!

  The patriarch hurriedly said, "Little Brother, just now, it's all us who have eyes but did not recognize Mt. Tai! Why don't a great man like you not stoop to harbor grievance for past wrongs? Master Dao Yuan and Elder Zhu Shan also did it with Li Yang in mind; that's why they stopped you from touching him. How about this, whatever request you have, just state them, Little Brother. As long as our Cloud Prancing Tribe can take it out, we absolutely won't say no!"

  Ye Yuan's eyes glimmered for a while, then he flashed a brilliant smile at the two people and said, "Since the two elders did it for Li Yan, then me pursuing it appears somewhat petty. Alright then, I'll treat the incident earlier as if it never happened."

  Hearing that this Little Ancestor finally got over it, the patriarch also heaved a long sigh in relief. If Ye Yuan really quibbled over it, he also did not know what he should do.

  Ye Yuan's words earlier were still ringing in his ears. If he offended this Little Ancestor and he washed his hands of this matter, then this son of his would be lost again after getting him back.

  With such a torment, he probably would not have many good years left.

  "Alright then, since Little Yang is fine, everybody, disperse! Quickly take down these white silk and the mourning hall; inauspicious!" the patriarch commanded.

  . . . . . .

  In the bedchambers, Li Yang laid on the bed sickly, unable to even speak. Ye Yuan was currently reading his pulse.

  After a long time, Ye Yuan removed his hand and stood up. Patriarch Li Teng hastily chased after and enquired cautiously, "Young Master Ji, Little Yang, he . . . What illness did he has?"
