Unrivaled Medicine God

by <unknown>

  He knew that this was the last chance Ye Yuan was giving him. If he refused to give the medicinal pills, his relationship with Ye Yuan would most likely be unable to be mitigated forever.

  Ren Xingchun could sense that Ye Yuan's stubbornness was absolutely not beneath his.

  But handing over the medicinal pills was equivalent to him lowering his head to Ye Yuan.

  He injured his subordinate but used his own medicinal pills to heal. This by itself was a form of submission. Yet, Ren Xingchun was an extremely tyrannical person. There had only ever been others lowering their heads to him. Where was there the part of him submitting to others?

  Everyone held their breaths, awaiting Ren Xingchun's choice.

  With this falling out, Ye Yuan and the Ren Family would probably have no way of getting together again.

  Xu Zihui did not say anything by the side. He had interacted with Ye Yuan for a period of time too and more or less understood a bit of Ye Yuan's personality.

  He was extremely domineering facing a leviathan like the Myriad Sword Sect and directly detained Qin Hongtao's grandson.

  Now, facing a Ren Xingchun, Ye Yuan being able to do it to such a step was already giving him tremendous face.

  As for how he chose, it would be up to Ren Xingchun himself.

  Ren Xingchun felt his heart beat very fiercely. He froze there without moving for a long time.

  He never thought that he would actually be checkmated by his own grandson.

  Facing Ye Yuan's overbearingness, Ren Xingchun actually had dread in his heart!

  Ren Xingchun was perfectly clear about Ye Yuan's ability. Once the Ren Family had Ye Yuan, it was far from as simple as having a descendant with an exceptionally promising future.

  Ye Yuan's prowess by itself was already ample to astonish everyone!

  The Cao Family's dread towards Ye Yuan right now simply could not be described using words.

  Originally, Ren Xingchun was also extremely wary of Ye Yuan. But if Ye Yuan joined the Ren Family, the Cao Family was completely nothing to be scared of!

  With Ye Yuan, the Ren Family would have an additional living Thousand Query Wall!

  "Faster! My patience has a limit!" Ye Yuan said with a frown.

  Ren Xingchun drew a deep breath and took out a Tier 4 healing medicinal pill from his storage ring. He slammed it sullenly on Ye Yuan's palm.

  Seeing this scene, everyone heaved a long sigh in relief.

  Ye Yuan lightly swept a glance over the medicinal pill in his palm and said disdainfully, "A dignified peak Alchemy Sovereign can only refine this sort of rubbish medicinal pill? Forget it, who ask me to be unable to refine Tier 4 medicinal pills. Brother Zihui, you make do with these and take them."

  As he said this, Ye Yuan casually threw the medicinal pill to Xu Zihui.

  Ren Xingchun's face went black, and he said furiously, "Stinking brat, this Azure Flower Jade Dew Pill is the highest grade healing medicinal pill in Wu Fang City! You actually say that it's rubbish?"

  Ye Yuan said crossly, "An exalted peak Alchemy Sovereign refining a Tier 4 medicinal pill can only come out with just high-grade. You have the face to take them out?!"

  Ren Xingchun said with a cold smile, "Who doesn't know how to brag?! If you have the capabilities, refine one yourself for me to see!"

  Ye Yuan chuckled but did not speak. But the contempt in his expression stimulated Ren Xingchun greatly.

  He had yet to flare up when Ren Dong interjected, "Grandfather, if Master he broke through to the Alchemy King Realm, refining transcendent-grade Azure Flower Jade Dew Pills should be not an issue!"

  "You rascal! Why are you helping outsiders? Also, he's your cousin! What are you calling him master for?!"

  Hearing Ren Dong cut in, Ren Xingchun immediately blew up and directly shouted.

  But Ren Dong grinned cheekily and said, "You already said that he's my cousin. How is it helping outsiders? Furthermore . . . we're each involved differently. It doesn't affect any thing! Since I acknowledged Cousin as my master, he'll be my master in this lifetime!"

  Ren Xingchun's face went black, and his figure moved, carrying Ren Dong in his arm.

  "Stinking brat! Still being stubborn! Watch if I don't take care of you properly when we return! Also, you, Yujie! Go back and face the wall to reflect!"

  As he said, Ren Xingchun's figure moved, vanishing from inside Feng Ya Pavilion.

  Seeing Ren Xingchun's distant back view, Xu Zihui said gratefully, "Young Master saved face for City Lord. Zihui is endlessly grateful!"

  Xu Zihui perceived that after Ye Yuan took the medicinal pill earlier, he deliberately displayed a disdainful look as an impromptu jest. This way, everyone would not appear to be overly awkward.

  Although Ye Yuan forced Ren Xingchun to lower his head, he was after all one of the top alchemists in this small world.

  This face still had to be given.

  Ye Yuan had a black face as he said unhappily, "What young master? Why are you at it again? Just call me Ye Yuan in future! Over here at my place, you're not a subordinate but a friend!"

  Chapter 533. The Cao Family's Distress |

  “What did you say? Ye Yuan is Ren Xingchun’s grandson?”

  These two days, the news that Ye Yuan was Ren Xingchun’s grandson slowly spread out within Wu Fang City. The Cao Family was naturally among the first batch of family clans who were informed of this news.

  When Cao Zheng heard this news, alarm and panic were all over his face.

  This news was undoubtedly a bolt out of the blue to him.

  How monstrous Ye Yuan was, Cao Zheng already had a taste of it.

  His performance at the Thousand Query Wall made Cao Zheng unbelievably panic-stricken.

  Originally, Ren Xingchun falling out with Ye Yuan at Exquisite Jade Pavilion even delighted Cao Zheng endlessly. Who knew that the situation would change drastically. News suddenly came from the Ren Family that Ye Yuan actually was Ren Xingchun’s grandson!

  Ye Yuan’s realm was not high but was an exceptionally troublesome character. Not only was his alchemy knowledge extremely terrifying, he even had the support of the Three Sects and Qi Hai behind him. He was simply unshakable by anyone.

  Such an existence became a member of the Ren Family. This simply could be said to be a catastrophic disaster for the Cao Family!

  The Cao Family’s greatest confidence and reliance right now were the Thousand Query Wall. Yet, this confidence in front of Ye Yuan could not withstand a single blow.

  If Ye Yuan was not a Ren Family member, for the sake of Wu Fang City’s collective interest, Ren Xingchun had no choice but to stand on the Cao Family’s side.

  But, if Ye Yuan became a Ren Family member, the situation would be entirely different.

  With Ye Yuan’s alchemy knowledge, he could completely come and challenge the Thousand Query Wall’s seventh level directly. Even if the challenge was not successful, as long as Ye Yuan’s performance was sufficiently heaven-defying, he could also push the Ren Family’s prestige to another height.

  At that time, the Ren Family completely did not need to rely on the Cao Family’s prestige anymore.

  Because Ye Yuan was another Thousand Query Wall!

  Ren Xingchun had long viewed the Cao Family as a thorn in the side. If he had a living Thousand Query Wall like Ye Yuan, it was impossible for him to let go of the chance to suppress the Cao Family!

  “Yes! The information is already confirmed! Back then, Ren Xingchun’s youngest daughter eloped to the Southern Domain with an Alchemy Master without any background, and she gave birth to a boy in a mortal kingdom. That boy is Ye Yuan!”

  The one talking was Cao Zheng’s eldest son, Cao Kun. At present, he was already an early-rank Alchemy Sovereign expert.

  Entirely different from Cao Fang being utterly suppressed by Ren Dong, Cao Kun was an elite among the Cao Family’s second generation, standing out above the entire city!

  Apart from Cao Kun, the Cao Family still had a number of sons who
were all Alchemy King experts.

  Compared to Ren Yujie, it was seriously way stronger!

  These few sons of Cao Zheng were the people Ren Xingchun was wariest of. Especially Cao Kun. It was very likely for him to impact through the realm of peak Alchemy Sovereign in the future.

  As long as the Cao Family gave birth to another peak Alchemy Sovereign expert, the Cao Family’s declining trend would gradually turn around.

  These few years, Cao Zheng had always been enduring silently. It was for the sake of waiting for Cao Kun to rise up.

  But Ye Yuan’s appearance completely ruined his plans.

  Cao Zheng sucked in a deep breath. He sat back down onto his seat with tightly knitted brows.

  This news was too shocking. He was caught somewhat off-guard.

  “Any other news?”

  Cao Kun’s expression was not too good either as he said, “Some news even came out of City Lord Manor. It’s just that I don’t know if it’s true or false.”

  “Speak!”

  “It’s said that Ren Xingchun will send out a public notice two days later to announce an important issue! Although it’s uncertain what it is, it may be assumed that it can’t be not related to that Ye Yuan!”

  Cao Zheng felt an incredible headache. Originally, in this Wu Fang City, the momentum of all of the luck was gradually leaning towards the Cao Family.

  Yet, Ye Yuan’s appearance completely turned the situation around.

  After a long time, Cao Zheng looked his son and asked, “How much strength . . . do you feel that Ye Yuan really has? I’m talking about . . . Thousand Query Wall!”

  That day when Ye Yuan challenged the Thousand Query Wall, although Cao Kun wasn’t present, he researched Ye Yuan’s answers carefully after the incident too, and it actually gave him a feeling of suddenly seeing the light.

  As a Cao Family descendant, the most important thing was to study the Thousand Query Wall.

  Cao Kun as an Alchemy Sovereign expert was very clear about the Thousand Query Wall’s seventh level’s questions.

  Ye Yuan’s answers made him have a feeling of sighing at his own inferiority.

  This youth was too strong!

  Cao Kun mused for a moment and smiled bitterly as he shook his head and said, “I really have no way of estimating! Although Ye Yuan only answered 20 questions, these 20 questions, he answered all of them directly; virtually without even thinking time! More importantly, all of his answers leave no room for criticism and completely can’t pick out any fault! This shows that these 20 questions were very easy for him. As for where his limit lies, most likely, nobody knows! Unless . . .”

  Cao Kun did not finish saying. But Cao Zheng understood his meaning.

  Unless Ye Yuan continued challenging the questions in front, otherwise, nobody knew where his limit lies!

  The Thousand Query Wall’s seventh level could be said to be a deity-like existence. Even though these 20 questions were only ranked at the back of the seventh level, the difficulty involved already represented the Endless World’s pinnacle standard.

  But it was this pinnacle standard that was like child’s play in front of Ye Yuan, utterly without any difficulty in the slightest.

  So where Ye Yuan’s limits lay, nobody knew either.

  But the problem was, did the Cao Family dare to let Ye Yuan continue challenging their Thousand Query Wall?

  When the mysterious veil of a holy land was uncovered layer by layer, then it could no longer be hailed as a holy land.

  After a long while, Cao Zheng gave a sigh and said, “The Cao Family has lasted several thousand years and been through several times of prosperity and decline, but we pulled through all of it. These several decades, the Cao Family was suppressed by the Ren Family all along. Father has never given up before either. But now, sigh . . . You take your leave first. Let Father think about it properly . . .”

  Seeing Cao Zheng’s look, Cao Kun was downcast too.

  His painstaking efforts these few years was for the sake of quashing the Ren Family. But now, because of the appearance of a Sea Transformation Realm youth, it vanished like soap bubbles. This made him have intense unwillingness in his heart.

  It was just that so what even if he was any more unwilling?

  What Cao Zheng wanted to think about, Cao Kun naturally knew. He wanted to think about how to let the Cao Family carry on surviving!

  Was a colossal family clan with a lineage of several thousand years actually facing annihilation?

  . . . . . .

  City Lord Manor, Ren Yujie was currently a guest at Ren Hongling’s residence.

  Ren Yujie said with a smile, “Hongling, you and Brother-in-Law lived a vagrant life outside these few years. You must have really suffered considerable hardships! Now, Father finally thought it through. Our family can finally sit down properly and have a chat.”

  But Ren Hongling was displeased as she said, “What thought things through?! If it wasn’t for Yuan-er, how could he have possibly thought it through? Furthermore, my husband and I have already treated the State of Qin as our home these few years. Where is there suffering hardships?”

  Ren Yujie was a goody-two-shoes. Hearing that Ren Yujie was still full of grievances, he was feeling rather awkward.

  Ye Hang could only come forward to smooth things over. He said, “Hongling, although our family went through quite a lot of twists and turns during this period, it also considered a happy ending right now. Past matters, just let it go.”

  In truth, how could Ye Hang not have resentment in his heart?

  But Ye Hang’s disposition was magnanimous, and his tolerance was outstanding. He had long come to accept everything.

  In Ye Hang’s heart, Ye Yuan’s current accomplishments were extraordinary. Ren Hongling could return to the Ren Family too. He no longer had any worries in his heart.

  The various things in the past, he did not have anything he could not get over too.

  Chapter 534. Announcing to the Entire City |

  Hearing Ye Hang said so, Ren Hongling had nothing much to say as well.

  Although Ren Hongling was resentful towards Ren Xingchun in her heart, she was Ren Xingchun’s daughter after all.

  With this matter being able to be resolved perfectly, Ren Hongling was naturally very happy in her heart too.

  “Actually, Ye Yuan’s words that day shook Father up greatly. These two days, his attitude when speaking to me was much better than before. Intentionally in his words and in a roundabout manner, he had remorse towards the two of you. It’s just that due to pride, he couldn’t come over to find you guys,” Ren Yujie said.

  Ye Hang waved his hand and said, “Past matters are already over. City Lord is a senior after all. How can we let him come and apologize?”

  Ren Yujie nodded his head and said, “I wonder what plans Brother-in-Law have from here on?”

  Ye Hang said, “I’ve already discussed with Hongling. After some time, we’ll return with Grand Elder Skymaple back to the Tranquil Cloud Sect. That is Yuan-er’s home. It’s naturally our home too.”

  Ren Yujie smiled bitterly and said, “Are you guys still harboring resentment towards Father in your hearts?”

  Ye Hang shook his head and said, “What’s Elder Brother talking about? Now that my wish is fulfilled, there isn’t any resentment. It’s just that we understand Yuan-er. He definitely won’t be some young patriarch in this Wu Fang City. He will return to the Tranquil Cloud Sect. Hongling’s and my greatest worry is Yuan-er. We’re naturally unwilling to leave him.”

  Ren Yujie came to a realization. He said, “Actually, me coming to find you guys today was Father’s intentions. He has an idea and wants to seek your opinions.”

  Ye Hang and Ren Hongling exchanged glances and were slightly a bit surprised.

  Ren Yujie would actually seek the two of their opinions when doing things. It made them very surprised.

  “Elder Brother, please say,” Ye Hang said.

  “Actually, Father felt that he
owes you guys too much these few years and wants to hold a make-up wedding for you. At the appointed time, he will announce to the entire Wu Fang City and apologize to you guys for the incident back then! It’s just that he was embarrassed to ask you. So he sent me to consult your opinions,” Ren Yujie said.

  Ye Hang could not help being stunned when he heard that. He did not quite dare to believe that Ren Xingchun would actually do something like this.

  Back then, he had experienced Ren Xingchun’s high-handed personality many times. Coming to Wu Fang City this time, Ren Xingchun’s behavior went from bad to worse.

  To think that after experiencing the incident two days back, Ren Xingchun would actually undergo such a huge transformation!

  Ye Hang knew that this was all changes which Ye Yuan brought to him.

  One had to admit that this suggestion of Ren Xingchun still made his heart palpitate with excitement.

  He brought Ren Hongling and traveled far away to the Southern Domain back then. But Ren Hongling conceived Ye Yuan along the way. Then, later on, they settled down in the State of Qin. He and Ren Hongling actually never held a presentable ceremony between them before.

  Although Ren Hongling followed him out of her own free will, he still felt like he owed her in his heart throughout.

  With a time interval of many years, if he could hold a grand and spectacular ceremony, it could also be considered a compensation to Ren Hongling, right?

  Especially this time. It was going to be held with Ren Xingchun’s blessings. The significance was naturally extraordinary.

  Except, making Ren Xingchun inform the entire city, this sort of thing was a bit too damaging to one’s face. This point made Ye Hang hesitate.

  Ye Hang looked dearly at Ren Hongling. Ren Hongling smiled gently and said, “All up to Husband to make the decision.”

  The two of them had helped each other in humble circumstances and had long known what the other was thinking. Just one look and Ren Hongling knew what Ye Hang was worried about.

  Ye Hang felt grateful inwardly and said, “Hongling, after we return to the Tranquil Cloud Sect, I’ll invite Grand Elder Skymaple to take charge and hold a make-up ceremony.
