Unrivaled Medicine God

Liang Hui was startled and could not help looking towards that burly man behind Ye Yuan.
Liang Mingyu continued when he saw the situation: “Second Uncle, you just have to hold Luo Jian back, when we take down that crippled boy, he won’t dare to be insolent anymore.”
Liang Hui’s face fell, and he said with a nod, “No problem! This Luo Jian’s strength is strong, but this old man can still hold him for a while. The rest will be left to you all!”
Liang Mingyu was thrilled the moment he heard it and said, “Rest assured, Second Uncle. That kid is merely a cripple, I’ll take it upon myself later!”
Liang Hui nodded his head and said to Luo Jian, “Luo Jian! You’re the Myriad Treasure Tower’s number one swordsman, but today, you broke into my Liang Family and injured people! It’s truly bullying people too far! This old man will come and face-off with you, see if you, this Myriad Treasure Tower’s number one swordsman, has an undeserved reputation or not!”
Luo Jian was still silent, giving people the feeling that there was only him alone in the whole world.
Liang Hui’s face fell and his figure shot forth. His hand already had an additional treasure sword at goodness knows when, charging over towards Luo Jian.
Deity Realm powerhouses, even just a minor realm apart, the disparity was very huge too!
Late-stage Grotto Profound compared to middle-stage Grotto Profound was god knows how many times stronger.
Wanting to leap realms and battle was virtually something impossible.
Many martial artists expended as long as 10 thousand years and were only able to break through a minor realm too.
Liang Hui’s strength already infinitely approached Grotto Profound grand completion. This opening move was truly earth-shattering.
At the same time he made his move, Liang Mingyu moved too!
His target was Ye Yuan!
Although Luo Jian was known as the Myriad Treasure Tower’s number one swordsman, his strength was merely around on par with Liang Hui. Wanting to shake off Liang Hui absolutely could not be done within a short time.
Therefore, that was why he would set his mind at east and attack boldly.
But right at this time, a fierce gale swept up!
Clank!
A light ringing sound echoed out!
This time, everyone finally saw Luo Jian unleash his sword!
No berserk sword energy, no outrageous divine essence undulations, just stabbing out a sword plainly.
Clank!
A crisp metal clashing sound echoed out.
Puchi!
Luo Jian’s long sword stabbed into Liang Hui’s chest viciously.
However, the remnant momentum did not diminish. Liang Mingyu’s figure had just reached midair when Luo Jian’s sword carried along Liang Hui, directly stringing them up together!
The two sounds of a long sword entering the flesh made everyone shudder with fear.
“This … How could he be so strong? Second Elder is only one last step away from Grotto Profound grand completion, to actually fail to last one exchange under Luo Jian’s hands!”
“What to do? The Myriad Treasure Tower’s number one swordsman is actually so strong!”
“This time, the Liang Family really kicked a steel plate! The Myriad Treasure Tower is what we can provoke at all!”
The Liang Family’s guards were all deeply astounded by this scene. This Luo Jian was truly too strong.
By the side, Ye Yuan was apathetic to this scene and carried Liang Wanru, slowly walking out of the Liang Family’s gate.
Chapter 1307. Inviting Humiliation? |
“Elder Feng, how is it?”
Inside a box room of the Myriad Treasure Tower, Ye Yuan being anxious and fretful was asking Feng Ping who was currently taking Liang Wanru’s pulse.
Feng Ping was Jewelhill City’s Myriad Treasure Tower’s chief alchemist. Under Manager Su’s recommendation, he agreed to diagnose Liang Wanru’s pulse.
Ye Yuan was currently a so-called Alchemy God, but he could only refine Divine Essence Pills. Regarding Liang Wanru’s situation, there was nothing he could do about it at all.
Feng Ping shook his head and said with a sigh, “Miss Wanru’s body is that of a mortal, but she’s suffering from a divine rank slow-acting poison. How can her body endure it? Right now, the poison has already entered the viscera, and is about to reach the heart!”
Ye Yuan’s expression could not help changing when he heard that. He did not have divine essence currently and was unable to help Liang Wanru diagnose her pulse.
But this poison entering the heart, he, as an experienced alchemist, naturally knew how dangerous it was.
No matter how weak the poison, as long as it entered the heart, then it was difficult for even immortals to save!
“Elder Feng, could it be that there’s no other way?” Ye Yuan said with a frown.
Feng Ping shook his head and said, “To detoxify this poison, it must be a one-star divine-grade Detoxification Pill! In this Jewelhill City, there’s still no one capable of refining a one-star divine-grade Detoxification Pill!”
A divine-grade Detoxification Pill, that was truly a god-like existence.
Forget about being in Jewelhill City, even a two-star alchemy god might not be able to refine it either.
Divine-grade medicinal pills required absolute strength plus heaven-defying luck before one could refine successfully.
By the side, Manager Su also sighed and said, “I know this girl. Although she can’t talk, her disposition is very pure. I didn’t expect that Liang Mingyu actually did this kind of tiger eating its own cubs thing, truly utterly devoid of conscience!”
Elder Feng revealed a disdainful look and said, “Liang Mingyu this person is too snobbish. Back then, in order to draw close to the Wang Family, he married Wang Pianran before his wife’s corpse was cold. It has always been passed down as a joke in this Jewelhill City.”
Manager Su suddenly had a look of wanting to speak but swallowing the words back, but it drew Ye Yuan’s attention.
“Manager Su, do you have any way that can save Wanru?” Ye Yuan hurriedly asked.
Feng Ping gave Manager Su a glance and said, “Don’t think about it, it won’t work.”
Manager Su said, “Yeah, Ye Yuan, this path truly can’t work. Better not say, in case you are troubled by it.”
Ye Yuan said curiously, “Where did this come from? Manager Su, Miss Wanru is this Ye’s benefactor, no matter how difficult the matter, this Ye is willing to go do it too!”
Feng Ping smiled and said, “This matter, you probably really can’t do it.”
Ye Yuan had a puzzled look. Manager Su let out a sigh and said, “The poison that Miss Wanru is inflicted with is called Poisonfeather Thousand Night. It’s the Wang Family’s non-transmissible secret. This kind of poison, as long as it doesn’t enter the heart, the Wang Family’s Wang Lingbo can treat it!”
“That Wang Pianran is precisely Wang Lingbo’s biological sister!”
Ye Yuan’s brows knitted together. Feng Ping and Manager Su’s meaning was already very obvious.
This was the Wang Family’s poison; only the Wang Family could cure it.
And the Wang Family was precisely Wang Pianran’s maiden family!
Have Ye Yuan go and beg the Wang Family?
Ye Yuan going to the Liang Family this time to abduct people and even had Luo Jian seriously injure the second elder and Liang Mingyu, the grudge was already set in stone.
With Wang Pianran that woman’s ruthlessness, how could she possibly let her own brother save Liang Wanru?
Ye Yuan sucked in a deep breath and asked Feng Ping, “Elder Feng, how long can Miss Wanru still last?”
Feng Ping thought about it and said, “That’s hard to say. Probably the latest is also tomorrow!”
Ye Yuan’s face fell, and he asked again, “Elder Feng, Ye Yuan wants to request a one-star heaven-grade Detoxification Pill from you, is it allowed? Of course, this Ye don’t
want it for free either. This Ye can use a hundred heaven-grade Divine Essence Pills to compensate.”
Feng Ping gave Ye Yuan a glance and said smilingly, “According to what I know, you seem to only know how to refine Divine Essence Pills currently, right? Do you plan to refine a divine-grade Detoxification Pill yourself? Give up! There’s absolutely no way!”
Ye Yuan nodded and said, “I’ll go to the Wang Family, if they agree to hand over the antidote, it’s naturally a happy ending. If they don’t agree … then there’s only this Ye taking action myself!”
Ye Yuan’s words made everyone greatly astonished.
They had already discerned that he was an extremely proud person from this incident of Ye Yuan forcefully breaking into the Liang Family.
This matter of lowering his head to people, it should be that he absolutely would not do it.
Moreover, everyone had a score in their hearts that even if Ye Yuan deigned himself, the possibility of the Wang Family agreeing was virtually zero.
For the sake of Liang Wanru this lass, Ye Yuan was actually willing to suffer such humiliation!
“Ye Yuan, have you thought clearly?” Manager Su was visibly moved as he said.
But Ye Yuan smiled broadly and said, “Miss Wanru suffered such a tribulation because of me. She had a life-saving grace to me, why would I, Ye Yuan, not throw this face out? Even if there’s only a feeble ray of hope, this Ye have to give it a try too!”
Everyone was visibly moved. They did not expect that Ye Yuan was actually such a loyal and sentimental person!
Elder Feng and Elder Su were both extremely shrewd people. They had long seen through that Ye Yuan’s gaze when looking at Liang Wanru was without the slightest lust, indicating that he did not have presumptuous ideas towards Liang Wanru.
Then Ye Yuan was doing this just in order to repay the kindness!
At this time, Ye Yuan felt the corners of his sleeves more. Turned out that it was Liang Wanru who pulled it.
Lowering his head to take a look, he saw that two clear streams of tears were flowing down Liang Wanru’s eyes.
Even though she was very weak at this time, her mind was still clear.
Ye Yuan was actually willing to suffer such humiliation for her, she was very upset in her heart.
Ye Yuan said with a smile, “Miss Wanru, you don’t have to be like this. This Ye has a score in my heart. You rest assured, this Ye will definitely save you!”
Liang Wanru nodded slightly, but her emotions were somewhat agitated.
…
“Brother, you have to stand up for me this time! You don’t know how arrogant that brat who’s surnamed Ye was at that time! He didn’t place our Wang Family in his sights at all …”
At the Wang Family’s residence, Wang Pianran was just like a machine gun, besmirching Ye Yuan in front of Wang Lingbo.
Wang Lingbo stood with his hands behind his back, quietly listening to his sister’s complaints, but did not express anything.
He knew this younger sister’s temperament. It was already pretty good to have 10% of everything she said to be credible.
Furthermore, how could the Liang Family’s matters need Wang Pianran to sow discord?
He knew long ago!
“Pianran, you tell me honestly, just what secret is there on that Ye Yuan’s boy’s body?” Wang Lingbo said with a heated gaze.
Wang Pianran was stunned when she heard that, her gaze started becoming evasive.
“Brother, you … what do you mean?”
Wang Lingbo said with a smile, “Pianran, a married woman should stand by her man, this is correct. But don’t you forget, who was the one who gave you your position in the Liang Family! The Liang Family can be pulled, but … also have to be struck! Do you think that Liang Mingyu obeying you in every way is really because you have power over major issues?”
Wang Pianran was suddenly startled. Only then did she realize that Elder Brother definitely executed many means behind her back these few years.
Liang Mingyu was hesitant to take action in fear of damages, and that was why he would please her in every way!
“Brother, I … I …”
Wang Lingbo’s one sentence made Wang Pianran completely flustered.
In term of schemes, she was far too lacking!
“The more stable the Wang Family’s position in Jewelhill City, the more pleasant your little days will be! Wouldn’t you say so?” Wang Lingbo still said with a smile.
Wang Pianran nodded her head woodenly.
“So, just what secret is there on that boy’s body?”
Chapter 1308. Wang Family's Humiliation |
“Hey, kid, the family head isn’t free today. You go back first. If you want to meet him, wait here tomorrow morning!”
A steward-like middle-aged man was currently shouting at Ye Yuan rudely.
Three days had already passed since Ye Yuan entered the Liang Family to rescue someone.
During these three days’ time, Ye Yuan waited at the Wang Family’s gate-house every day early in the morning.
All the way until the sun set, what he got was all the same sentence.
Ye Yuan knew that this was Wang Lingbo deliberately hanging him out to dry.
But Ye Yuan did not reveal the slightest hint of unhappiness. He just clasped his hands slightly at that doorman and bade his farewell.
Looking at Ye Yuan’s departing back view, the doorman also felt somewhat surprised.
“This kid is really tenacious. If it were others, they wouldn’t be able to take it long ago,” the doorman muttered to himself.
These few days, they changed ways to make things difficult for Ye Yuan, various kinds of suddenly turning hostile, even pouring tea on Ye Yuan’s face. But Ye Yuan did not have any complaints. After smiling slightly, he stood at one side and waited again.
Just today, a Wang Family’s descendant came to the gate-house and gave Ye Yuan a beating with blocking the way as the reason.
Ye Yuan still did not fight back when beaten and did not talk back when scolded.
Honestly speaking, even the doorman himself also could not quite look on anymore.
If it were others, they would have long left in a rage.
But Ye Yuan forcefully endured it.
The time limit that Ye Yuan set for himself was five days. After five days, if Wang Lingbo was still not willing to meet, he would cultivate himself, and refine a divine-grade Detoxification Pill!
Ye Yuan had sought a heaven-grade Detoxification Pill from Fengping. After Liang Wanru consumed it, it temporarily suppressed the spread of the Poisonfeather Thousand Night’s poison.
Fortunately, the heaven-grade Detoxification Pill was effective enough and was able to delay the Poisonfeather Thousand Night’s poison for 40 days before flaring up again.
This way, Ye Yuan would have 40 days of buffer time.
The refining difficulty of the Detoxification Pill was much greater than the Divine Essence Pill.
But to Ye Yuan, this was an incidental thing.
According to Dustless’s way of saying, the next step was to practice refining the Detoxification Pill. It just happened to lay down the foundation for the One-star Heavenly Mark Pill.
However, Ye Yuan had to first cultivate the Divine Essence Pill to divine-grade.
This task was very difficult. Ye Yuan himself also did not know whether or not it could be completed, and he also could not bear to watch Liang Wanru suffer.
Therefore, being aware that the Wang Family was deliberately insulting him, he also forcefully tolerated it.
Fortunes changed, there would come a day where the Wang Family had to pay the price for their actions.
Luo Jian followed behind Ye Yuan unhurriedly; a glimmer flashed across his eyes.
This kind of look was rare on him.
“Haha, Brother, it’s really liberating! You really don’t know how arrogant this brat was at the Liang Family that day! I didn’t expect that he doesn’t even dare to let out a fart un
til now! Looks like that little girl still has some means, to actually enthrall this boy until he loses his head, willingly suffering such humiliation for her.”
Getting to know the ‘fruits’ of these few days, Wang Pianran laughed very delightedly.
Wang Lingbo smiled faintly and said, “This boy is arrogant at heart and haughty in manner, but can suffer such humiliation. This determination isn’t easy to deal with! This kind of person, if can’t become friends with, then there’s … only making him die!”
But Wang Pianran was indifferent as she said, “Brother, you worry too much! Just a cripple. If not relying on the Myriad Treasure Tower, he’d die however I want to make him die!”
Wang Lingbo glanced at this foolish sister of his, shook his head, and said no more.
He called the doorman over and instructed, “Tomorrow morning, when that boy comes, directly lead him to the great hall.”
…
The next day, when Ye Yuan showed up at the Wang Family’s great hall, Wang Lingbo, Wang Pianran, Liang Wanrong, were already waiting in an arranged order, in the solemn manner of a tri-hall joint hearing.
Ye Yuan did not mind either. He just clasped his hands at Wang Lingbo and said, “Ye Yuan has seen Family Head Lingbo!”
Wang Lingbo narrowed his eyes as if he did not see Ye Yuan at all. His attitude was very haughty.
“You’re the Myriad Treasure Tower’s newly promoted guest alchemist?”
“Yes!”
“Looks very ordinary! You’re looking for me for the Poisonfeather Thousand Night’s antidote?”
Ye Yuan nodded and said, “That’s right? Miss Wanru is at any rate Family Head Lingbo’s niece. Hope that you can raise your hand in mercy and let her off!”
“Huhu, niece? Ye Yuan, you’re telling bald-faced lies here! My brother only has one niece, that is Rong-er! That whore, if she dies, she dies! To dare be mentioned in the same breath with my family’s Rong-er?” Wang Pianran giggled.
That face piled up with fats looked incomparably hideous.
Wang Lingbo said coolly, “What Pianran said is right, that lass has no blood relations with me at all, on what basis should I save her? Or is it that you can take out something that can move this family head?”
