Unrivaled Medicine God

  Hence, that was why he would use this kind of method to make the Wang Family take the initiative to pay tributes to him.

  These were filling his own pockets.

  “Huhu, Elder Yuxiang is too courteous. You all coming to find this city lord this time, is it because of the Myriad Treasure Tower’s matters?” Only now did Chen Yongnian lay his cards on the table.

  Chapter 1347. You Don't Say, How Would I Know? |

  “A banquet with hidden dangers! Ye Yuan, this banquet, you mustn’t go!” Yang Rui said solemnly.

  At this time, Yang Rui and Ye Yuan both received an invitation in their hands.

  These two invitations were issued by City Lord Manor.

  The four families fought for so long, City Lord Manor had always remained silent.

  This time, they were finally making a move.

  It was just that Ye Yuan received an invitation too. This made Yang Rui very uneasy.

  Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Just go. Why shouldn’t I go? They are aiming at the Essence Cultivating Pill. If I don’t go, this matter will probably never end.”

  Yang Rui naturally knew that they were aiming at the Essence Cultivating Pill. But if Ye Yuan went, he felt uneasy.

  Those going this time were all experts. He could not protect Ye Yuan by himself.

  “I know, but … I’m afraid that this invitation will be detrimental to you!” Yang Rui said.

  “No way, right? This time, it’s the city lord coming forward personally. No matter how courageous their few families are, they also don’t dare to act wildly in front of the city lord, right?” Ye Yuan said puzzledly.

  Yang Rui sighed and said, “You don’t know this. That Wang Su, who came from the Wang Family’s main family, his elder brother came out of Wu Meng Academy with City Lord Chen Yongnian. Before you exited seclusion, the City Lord Manor actually suppressed us directly and indirectly, the intentions are already very obvious.”

  Ye Yuan’s brows raised up, and he said, “You’re saying that they are acting in collusion, all targeting us?”

  Yang Rui nodded and said, “If barring no accidents, it should be so! Hence, for the sake of your safety, you’d better not go!”

  The complexity of Jewelhill City’s situation exceeded Ye Yuan’s expectations.

  However, this could not scare him.

  Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Since they are already riding on top of our heads, we can’t avoid it no matter what. Not going today, they will always have a way to come and find trouble again. Rather than that, might as well take this opportunity, everybody lay it out on the table, that’s better.”

  Yang Rui said anxiously, “Goodness, why are you so obstinate? That City Lord Chen Yongnian is a middle-stage Heaven Glimpse powerhouse. Once he steels his heart to deal with you, I can’t stop him!”

  Ye Yuan chuckled and said, “Tower Lord is overly concerned. Even if they have that layer of relationship, I think the city lord won’t make a move without careful consideration too. After all, his identity is placed there.”

  …

  Unable to persuade Ye Yuan, Yang Rui still brought him over.

  He could only place his hopes that Chen Yongnian could have misgivings about the Myriad Treasure Tower’s prestige and not dare to make a move against Ye Yuan.

  The City Lord Manor’s main hall was very large. The banquet was very sumptuous too.

  That young city lord on the seat of honor also wore a broad smile. He looked like he had a good relationship with everyone.

  It was only after three rounds of drinking had passed did Chen Yongnian bring up the topic.

  “Thank you all for giving this city lord this face, to be able to come to the City Lord Manor and get together. Everyone, all present here are my Jewelhill City’s pillars of strength. Everyone says that if enmity is not settled amicably, there is no end to it, doesn’t everyone agree?”

  Chen Yongnian’s gaze swept over everyone’s faces one by one. Everyone immediately felt immense pressure.

  Even Yang Rui felt tremendous pressure too.

  “City Lord, Your Excellency, is right!” Lu Family’s old head said with a smile.

  “That’s right, that’s right! Everyone says that amiability brings wealth, haha …” Lin Family’s old head also concurred.

  But Wang Su smiled faintly and said, “What Brother Chen says is right. Jewelhill City is everybody’s, not one family’s. It’s not good to be overbearing!”

  Chen Yongnian looked towards Yang Rui and said with a smile, “Tower Lord Yang, what say you?”

  Yang Rui’s expression was rather ugly as he smiled slightly awkwardly and said, “This …”

  He was very reluctant. When the Myriad Treasure Tower was about to go out of business back then, why didn’t you, Chen Yongnian, say so?

  Now that the Wang Family was collapsing, you came forward to posture?

  Except, the pressure that Chen Yongnian gave him was too great. He had no choice but to lower his head.

  Strength was one aspect, more importantly, what Chen Yongnian represented was Wu Meng Capital City!

  Yang Rui’s words reached the tip of his tongue, but he was interrupted by Ye Yuan.

  “Uh … delicious! Too delicious! Tsk tsk, City Lord Manor is indeed not an ordinary place. The taste of this dish is excellent!” Ye Yuan smacked his lips, enjoying it greatly.

  In this situation, the Lin Family’s family head, Lin Zaitian, Lu Family’s Lu Jinghao, as well as Wang Lingbo, could only stand at one side.

  But Ye Yuan was sitting carelessly to Yang Rui’s right, eating and drinking to his heart’s content.

  Chen Yongnian’s brows furrowed, his gaze sweeping towards Ye Yuan. But Ye Yuan directly ignored him and only cared about his eating.

  Chen Yongnian felt his fist land on cotton, feeling very uncomfortable.

  Even the initial-stage Heaven Glimpse Yang Rui yielded, this punk actually deliberately came out to cause trouble.

  “Ye Yuan, could it be that … you have objections towards this city lord’s words?” Chen Yongnian said with a frown.

  It was only after hearing his name being called did Ye Yuan raise his head. He looked towards Chen Yongnian, saying with a blank look, “Mm? City Lord, Your Excellency, did you say something just now? Your dishes are too delicious, I didn’t hear!”

  Pretend!

  Carry on feigning!

  When he spoke just now, the entire main hall could hear, he did not believe that Ye Yuan could not hear it!

  But, got to say, Ye Yuan was a very crucial figure today.

  Otherwise, he would not specially give him a seat either.

  Chen Yongnian reined in his temper and said, “This city lord said earlier, everyone is in the same city and meet frequently. If enmity is not settled amicably, there is no end to it! Don’t you say so?”

  Ye Yuan was thrilled the moment he heard and said with a smile, “Enemy? Who’s the enemy? My enemy1 is Drunken Wind Inn’s Little Red. Could it be that City Lord knows this Ye likes this and called her here too?”

  Drunken Wind Inn was Jewelhill City’s largest brothel. This, Ye Yuan still knew. But Little Red was him talking nonsense.

  Chen Yongnian was nearly angered until he had internal injuries. This guy was clearly inserting dialogue for comic relief on purpose.

  Yang Rui sweated profusely as he listened by the side, while Wang Su and the rest had gloating faces.

  Offending the city lord in Jewelhill City was not some wise move.

  Chen Yongnian gave a cold snort, but said to Yang Rui, “Tower Lord Yang, this city lord only hosted this banquet on account of everybody’s contributions to Jewelhill City for many years, and let everyone bury the hatchet! Is this your Myriad Treasure Tower’s attitude?”

  This cold snort, Chen Yongnian used the aura of middle-stage Heaven Glimpse. The impetus was very shocking.

  Yang Rui’s expression changed, and he was just about to speak but was intercepted by Ye Yuan, who said, “Haha, turns out what City Lord is
talking about is this! Say it earlier! You don’t say, how would I know? Burying the hatchet is good, I wonder what brilliant idea City Lord, Your Excellency, has?”

  Chen Yongnian was just about to suppress Yang Rui with ruthless means and force him to submit. But having Ye Yuan cause a disturbance like this, he almost spewed out a mouthful of old blood.

  Ye Yuan brought him around a roundabout and circled back again. Wasn’t this messing with him?

  However, Chen Yongnian did not wish to make things too unpleasant either. It was true that he was targeting the Myriad Treasure Tower today, but he would try his best not to make a move to the best of his ability.

  To actually employing martial strength was a problem too.

  After all, the Myriad Treasure Tower was not to be trifled with as well.

  This was a Heavenly Emperor powerhouse’s business!

  Chen Yongnian endured his anger, snorted coldly, and slowly said, “I have an idea. Everyone, we discuss it a bit, see if it works or not. Tower Lord, if there’s money to make, everybody should earn them together. Don’t you think so? Your Myriad Treasure Tower’s Essence Cultivating Pill is too tyrannical. This way, everybody doesn’t have means of subsistence anymore. Why not you all take out the Essence Cultivating Pill’s selling rights and share some with the Wang, Lin, and Lu, three families!”

  Chapter 1348. The Greatest Benevolence |

  “Bullying people too far!”

  The moment Chen Yongnian’s voice faded, Yang Rui quickly stood up, with a look of unrestrained rage.

  This request was seriously too much!

  Today, this was clearly a treacherous plot. Chen Yongnian brought the three great families to force an abdication.

  “Tower Lord Yang, don’t get agitated! Sit down, sit down and talk! Mm?”

  Seeing Yang Rui did not sit down, a surge of powerful aura released from Chen Yongnian’s body, oppressing Yang Rui.

  In an instant, Yang Rui felt immense pressure.

  The strength of middle-stage Heaven Glimpse was much stronger than initial-stage Heaven Glimpse.

  Yang Rui did not have any leeway to resist in front of him at all.

  Just as Yang Rui could not bear the pressure and was about to plop his bottom down, Ye Yuan slowly stood up.

  A wave of faintly discernible aura slowly rose. Chen Yongnian’s face changed, his gaze looking towards Ye Yuan with astonishment.

  This aura of Ye Yuan’s was not cultivation realm suppression, but … contained a kind of Dao concept!

  Under Ye Yuan’s surge of aura, Chen Yongnian’s aura actually had a feeling of imminent collapse.

  Chen Yongnian was greatly astonished. If the standoff continued, his Dao heart would collapse!

  Chen Yongnian withdrew his aura, the pressure on Yang Rui’s body suddenly eased up.

  But his gaze turned toward Ye Yuan in astonishment.

  “City Lord, Your Excellency, things can be talked through. Overwhelming people with power like this isn’t good, right?” Ye Yuan said with a faint smile.

  Everyone all looked at Ye Yuan with a solemn look. A middle-stage Grotto Profound actually made a middle-stage Heaven Glimpse’s aura give a wide berth?

  This was truly too outrageous to hear!

  Ye Yuan’s aura originated from the Lesser Heavenspan Mountain.

  It also originated from the Chaos Heavenspan Canon!

  Ye Yuan’s cultivation method was a terrifying existence that triggered the entire Heavenspan World’s abnormal activity.

  Using cultivation realm pressure in front of him, wasn’t it looking for a pummeling?

  “This city lord making him sit down, isn’t it in order to discuss properly? It was Tower Lord Yang who got agitated on his own! This city lord convened everyone together in order to discuss a good countermeasure!” Chen Yongnian found a way out for himself.

  However, this could not conceal his inner shock.

  Only then did he know that this middle-stage Grotto Profound boy in front of him seemed to be even more troublesome than Yang Rui!

  Ye Yuan gave Yang Rui a look, motioning for him to sit down. He then smiled and said, “City Lord, Your Excellency, don’t blame this Ye for saying unpleasant things. It’s truly that you’re demanding an exorbitant price! The profits of the Essence Cultivating Pill, everybody is aware. Their three families don’t need to do anything and want to have a piece of the pie, how can there be such a good thing in the world?”

  “Heh, we also didn’t say do nothing! What conditions there are, you all feel free to state them. Otherwise, if you really press the three of our families, the Myriad Treasure Tower’s business can also forget about operating any further!” Wang Su said coolly.

  These words were rather shameless.

  Use one’s butt to think and the person would also know that what Wang Su was referring to was definitely some despicable methods.

  The meaning was, if I have a hard time, you all can also forget about having a good time!

  But Ye Yuan smiled when he heard that and said, “That’s more like it! Since you want to negotiate, you naturally have to bring out sufficient sincerity. As long as you all are willing to offer enough price, it’s also not like this Essence Cultivating Pill can’t be given you all.”

  Ye Yuan’s words made everyone’s eyes light up.

  Of course, apart from Yang Rui.

  “Ye Yuan, you …” Yang Rui said anxiously.

  The reason why the Myriad Treasure Tower could run a monopoly was because of the Essence Cultivating Pill’s advantage.

  If they gave the selling rights to the other three families, their advantage would be all gone!

  Unless it was a last resort, he absolutely would not agree.

  Ye Yuan gave him a look, indicating for him to hold his horses.

  Wang Su forcefully suppressed the wild elation in his heart and said calmly, “What conditions there are, feel free to list them! As long as it’s not too overboard, I believe everyone won’t refuse! Everyone is all in Jewelhill City, mutual benefits and coordinate development is the right path.”

  Half a year passed, the Essence Cultivating Pill’s reputation already gradually spread to other places.

  Right now, many other cities’ martial artists would also rush to Jewelhill City without paying heed to the distance, in order to buy the Essence Cultivating Pill.

  At present, the Essence Cultivating Pill’s price rose again and again. But the people coming to buy the medicinal pill were still going after it like a flock of ducks.

  This medicinal pill’s profits were too great!

  How could Wang Su not be delighted?

  Not just him, the other two families’ old heads also revealed expressions of wild ecstasy on their faces.

  They never thought that Ye Yuan actually agreed so easily.

  Ye Yuan smiled and said, “My condition isn’t overboard at all. To you all, it’s merely a matter of lifting a finger.”

  Hearing these words, the three families’ hearts eased up.

  It seemed like the Myriad Treasure Tower was still afraid of the City Lord Manor in the end!

  Ye Yuan paused for a bit, but his gaze looked toward Wang Lingbo and said indifferently, “His life, exchange for the Essence Cultivating Pill’s selling rights! How is it? It’s a good deal, right?”

  The rest were still okay, but the Wang Family’s people’s faces all changed drastically.

  Wang Lingbo even pointed at Ye Yuan angrily and said, “Brat, what do you mean?”

  Wang Su’s face fell, and he said, “Are you making a fool out of our three families?”

  Ye Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said smilingly, “This is already my greatest sincerity! At the Yin Wind Den, the Wang Family’s three great elders hunted Luo Jian and me down. Don’t tell me that this wasn’t your idea! Every injustice had its perpetrator, every debt its debtor. It’s already my greatest benevolence to not let the Wang Family be buried in death!”

  Previously, Ye Yuan was afraid of breaki
ng Jewelhill City’s balance and made things difficult for the Myriad Treasure Tower, that was why he would spare Wang Lingbo’s life.

  With his temper, directly exterminating the Wang Family back then was also not impossible.

  But now, these few families were already riding on top of his head. How could Ye Yuan possibly show mercy to him?

  “Heh, make my Wang Family be buried in death, your esteemed self has such high-sounding sentiments! With just the likes of you, a middle-stage Grotto Profound?” Wang Yuxiang said with a cold sneer.

  “Ye Yuan, everyone said that if enmity is not settled amicably, there is no end to it! Even though the Wang Family sent people to hunt you down back then, you’re safe and sound right now, while their elders are all dead. This is also considered evening up. Give this city lord face and drop this matter at that, alright?” Chen Yongnian finally spoke up.

  Ye Yuan chuckled and said, “The Essence Cultivating Pill’s profits, there’s no need for me to say no more. I just have this one condition! Agree, everything can be discussed! Disagree, then there’s no need to discuss anymore.”

  Ye Yuan’s casual sentence sealed off all of the retreat paths.

  The atmosphere instantly fell to a freezing point, becoming peculiar.

  Yang Rui was expressionless, but in his heart, he prostrated in admiration toward Ye Yuan.

  This move was played too beautifully, directly kicking the ball back to the other party.

  Wang Lingbo’s weight was not light nor heavy, just nice.

  If it were Wang Yuxiang, then it would appear too insincere.

  Wang Lingbo was merely a Grotto Profound Realm martial artist and did not count as much. But he was also the Wang Family’s present family head, his status being extraordinary.

  At this time, all of the focal points were gathered onto Wang Lingbo.

  Especially Lu and Lin, two families’ old heads, their gazes faintly looked towards him.

  What was even more damnable was that Wang Su’s gaze also wittingly or unwittingly flitted over.

  Clearly, he was very conflicted.

  Who was Wang Lingbo, how could he not perceive the current situation?

  “Wang Su, what’s the meaning of this? Could it be that you’re going to kill your own clansman because of this boy’s one sentence?” Wang Lingbo’s expression changed and asked him.
