And the power of a spirit artifact that could be unleashed by Ye Yuan was not even ten percent!
Only Crystal Formation Realm martial artists could unleash a spirit artifact’s true power.
If a Crystal Formation Realm martial artist possessed a spirit artifact, they could absolutely dominate those in the same realm!
But now, a spirit artifact was actually held in a Ninth Level Essence Qi Realm’s hands. What a reckless waste of God’s good gift!
Ye Yuan ignored the other people’s amazement, and just asked casually. “Now, can I bring her away?”
Hearing Ye Yuan’s words, a cold shiver ran down Liu Ruoshui’s spine. She did not think that Ye Yuan could defeat even Su Yishan!
Su Yishan was number ten on the Martial Roll!
Even Su Yishan could not shelter her. Then wasn’t she dead for sure?
“Argh! Ye Yuan, you forced my hand!” Su Yishan was already completely incensed. He wanted to kill Ye Yuan at any cost!
The next instant, a horrifying aura surged from Su Yishan’s body.
He lightly lifted both hands with the palms facing the sky. Dirt-yellow color essence energy condensed in the center of his palms. That horrifying pressure suffocated people!
“This . . . this aura is . . . the high-grade Tier 2 martial technique, Heaven Flipping Palm! You have to be careful, Ye Yuan!” Wu Luochen solemnly warned him.
Ye Yuan’s face was similarly serious. He did not expect that Su Yishan still had such a trump card.
Just this horrifying aura already far surpassed the power of Third Level Spirit Condensation Realm! The might of a high-grade Tier 2 martial technique was extraordinary!
Ye Yuan stood with his sword horizontally with a never before seen solemnness on his face.
“Ye Yuan! I want you to know that provoking me, Su Yishan, comes with a price! Go and die!”
Right now, Su Yishan had already completely lost his reason. There was only one thing on his mind, which was to kill Ye Yuan!
He brought both palms together, and the dirt-yellow glow rippled out.
Next, would be a terrifying attack!
“Yishan, leave it at this . . .” Right then, a faint voice sounded out in Su Yishan’s ear.

“Yishan, leave it at this . . .”
Right after this voice sounded out, Su Yishan was abruptly awakened. His aura also withdrew after that, vanishing imperceptibly.
Seeing that Su Yishan’s Heaven Flipping Palm was stopped, not only did Ye Yuan not relax, his face turned even graver.
Those Heaven Rank students automatically opened up a path, and Su Yubai walked out from the crowd.
Everyone was stupefied. The one who stopped Su Yishan was actually Su Yubai?
What happened? Didn’t Su Yubai hope for Ye Yuan to die most of all? Why did his character suddenly change?
Su Yishan slowly walked to the front of Ye Yuan and the other two. Su Yishan and Wu Luochen respectfully bowed, and called out “Elder Su.” Only Ye Yuan remained indifferent.
“Humph! Don’t even know how to greet when you see me. Indeed without upbringing!” Seeing Ye Yuan’s behavior, Su Yubai’s temper flared right away.
Ye Yuan simply replied nonchalantly, “I’ve cleared the Nine Heavens Road, and already have status equivalent to the Tranquil Cloud Sect’s core disciples. The Tranquil Cloud Sect’s core disciple’s status is even higher than outer sect elders. The one who should be greeting . . . should be Elder Su, right?”
The Tranquil Cloud Sect’s core disciples had an extraordinary status. They were all one in a million geniuses and were also the target of the Tranquil Cloud Sect’s heavy nurturing. They possessed many privileges.
On the other hand, outer sect elders were at most just supervisors assisting the dean to manage the academy. They did not even count as sect disciples. So their status was naturally not as high as core disciples.
Hearing that, Su Yubai’s face changed. He immediately gave a cold snort and said, “The high sect had not yet confirmed your status, so you are still the State of Qin’s Dan Wu Academy’s disciple. Don’t give me the attitude of some core disciple!”
Ye Yuan curled his lips and said, “It’s Elder Su who is putting on the airs on an elder with me. So I just have to make clear of my current status.”
Su Yubai sorrowfully discovered that he could never gain any advantage over Ye Yuan, so he could only change the topic. “Where did the spirit artifact in your hand come from? Such a precious artifact and you actually did not report to the academy. What are your intentions?”
Su Yubai also did not expect that Ye Yuan actually have a spirit artifact in his hands!
This truly made him incredibly envious!
Su Yubai’s own lifeblood weapon was a high-grade magic artifact. Initially, it was also suitable for him.
But Su Yubai was already a half-step Crystal Formation Realm. If he used a spirit artifact, it would definitely let his strength rise to another level.
Originally, he did not think much about spirit artifacts, because spirit artifacts were too scarce.
But now, a spirit artifact actually appeared in Ye Yuan’s hands. How could he remain unperturbed?
For a puny little Ninth Level Essence Qi Realm to use a spirit artifact, wasn’t that wasting God’s gift?
How could Ye Yuan not know Su Yubai’s little thoughts? Hearing that, he only said coolly, “You know that I swore a Heaven Dao Oath before challenging the Nine Heavens Road. So it’s inconvenient for me to report about the origins of this sword. If Elder Su is uneasy, then you can inquire from the high sect. This sword should have once had illustrious fame. I believe it wouldn’t be hard to enquire.”
High sect! High sect again!
Using high sect to suppress me right?
Su Yubai despondently discovered that he really could not do anything about it.
Since Ye Yuan dared to openly take this sword out, it showed that there was definitely no issues with its origins.
Although Ye Yuan said nothing, he already indicated the source of this sword, Nine Heavens Road!
Came from the Nine Heavens Road? Then this would be easy!
“Since this sword came from the Nine Heavens Road, how can you keep it for yourself? The Nine Heavens Road belongs to the Nine Heavens Road. Since you acquired the spirit artifact on the Nine Heavens Road, you should pass it to the academy to deal with it!”
Ye Yuan chuckled. “Pass to the academy to deal with it? It’s pass to Elder Su to handle, right? Just be candid about wanting the spirit artifact. What’s with so many detours?”
Su Yubai’s Face Thickness Divine Art had clearly been cultivated to an extremely high realm. He did not show any embarrassment after having his thoughts exposed by Ye Yuan.
“This elder is devoted to public interests. Don’t try to slander me! After your spirit artifact is passed to the academy, how to deal with it would naturally be up to the dean and the Elders Council to decide. This spirit artifact originally came from the academy, how can you keep it all to yourself?”
Su Yubai said it with a strong sense of righteousness. Except, who knew how many people actually would fall for that.
“Elder Su’s public spirit is truly touching. But . . . according to what I know, the Nine Heavens Road doesn’t seem to be under the jurisdiction of the academy? Even if I have to hand it up, it will also be passed to the sect. What has it got to do with you?!” Ye Yuan did not hold back his words at all.
“You! Courting death!” Su Yubai was so angered by Ye Yuan that his seven souls were about to leave his body, and he looked as if he was about to make a move.
Ye Yuan jumped up instead, and yelled out, “Ahh! Elder Su wants to kill people! Everyone, be a witness for me!”
Su Yubai’s raging fire was instantly extinguished by Ye Yuan’s shout.
Ye Yuan’s current status was exceptional. If he were to really kill Ye Yuan in public, h
is elder position could be considered to have come to an end.
The charge of killing a high sect’s core disciple was not something he could shoulder.
He stopped Su Yishan naturally because of this reason as well. He did not think that a few sentences in, he was already swept in by Ye Yuan.
Su Yubai suddenly discovered that Ye Yuan was like a hedgehog, leaving him nowhere to bite.
So aggrieving!
“Such utter nonsense! When did I want to kill people?” Su Yubai snorted icily.
“Do you dare to say that you didn’t have killing intent just now?” Ye Yuan made no concessions at all.
“. . . . . .”
Su Yubai had no words to say to that. He switched topic once again. “Forget about that first. I heard that you want to bring away this female student for a private interrogation. Do you know that you are setting up a clandestine tribunal?”
“Clandestine tribunal? Then let me ask you, what’s the charge for offending a core disciple? You, Elder Su, can say that my status is not yet authentic, but Liu Ruoshui doesn’t have that qualification, right?” Ye Yuan said with a cold smile.
“This . . . Offending a core disciple, severe cases can be the death penalty. But according to what I know, she doesn’t seem to have offended you?” Su Yubai said.
“How do you know that she did not offend and that it wasn’t sophistry?” Ye Yuan retorted.
“Lin Tiancheng and Zhang Heng were already killed by you. This matter has no other witnesses. You aren’t going to rely just on your guesswork to sentence her crime, right?” Su Yubai smiled coldly.
“I said just now, I have my ways of making her talk. If she didn’t take part in this matter, then the grudges between us will be wiped off the slate! If she feels dissatisfied, I can even apologize to her publicly!”
“What a joke! What method do you have to make her talk? Don’t tell me you want to beat a confession out of her?”
Ye Yuan said casually, “I’m afraid that Elder Su has done quite a bit of those sort of things, right? However . . . I’m not as ruthless as Elder Su, so I’m unable to do those sort of malicious things.”
Su Yubai’s wrath had just subsided when it was evoked by Ye Yuan again.
This punk was really someone that exasperated people to death without paying for it.
Forcefully suppressing the fury in his heart, Su Yubai said in a low voice, “Who in the Dan Wu Academy doesn’t know that this elder enforces the law impartially? Right now, we’re talking about you. Why did you come onto me?”
“Like that huh? Fine then. I know that Elder Su is ignorant and ill-informed. I wonder if you have ever heard of a type of medicinal pill called the Truth Pill? En . . . Looking at your appearance, you must be unaware. Let me explain it for Elder Su. A Truth Pill is a Tier 2 medicinal pill. If Liu Ruoshui eats it, she will answer anything I ask. At that time, the truth will naturally be revealed.”
Ye Yuan explained about the Truth Pill, and also made a quip at Su Yubai . . .
Chapter 115

“Utter nonsense! This elder has lived to this old age, and I have never heard of such a medicinal pill!”
Although Su Yubai did not specialize in Alchemy Dao, the Su Family still managed a medicinal herbs business. He was absolutely not a stranger to medicinal pills.
Since he said he had never heard of it, then even if another Alchemy Dao elder came over, they probably never heard of it as well.
Except that these words were equivalent to stealthily acknowledging that he was ignorant . . .
“I already said that Elder Su is ignorant and ill-informed, so how could you have heard of it before? But it doesn’t matter whether you heard of it before or not. What you hear may be false, but what you see is true. After I refine a few of them out, then wouldn’t Elder Su know if it’s real or fake after sampling it personally? At that time, I guarantee that which concubine Elder Su spent the previous night with will be grilled out,” Ye Yuan said with a smile.
Ye Yuan’s words prompted roars with laughter from everyone. The laughter only ceased after Su Yubai shot a menacing glance.
Ye Yuan had extremely extensive research in Alchemy Dao. He dabbled in all sorts of areas.
On the other hand, most of the pill formulas in the State of Qin were targeted for the Martial Dao. Either to help martial artists increase their strength, or to help martial artists recover essence energy, so on and so forth.
This sort of obscure medicinal pill like the Truth Pill would naturally not be recorded.
The highest level martial artists in the State of Qin did not surpass the Crystal Formation Realm, and their age did not get past 300 years old. Even if one was an Alchemy Grandmaster, how much leisure time would they have to research this sort of obscure medicinal pill?
But, like Ye Yuan said, differentiating whether the medicinal pill was real or fake was very simple. Just find someone to test it out.
The medicinal effects could not be faked. With so many people watching, faking it would be exposed straightaway. Unless the person trying out the medicine was arranged by Ye Yuan.
Su Yubai naturally would not commit such a low-level blunder.
“Humph! Flippant child! I want to see just how you clean up the mess later!” Su Yubai snorted coldly.
Just like that, Ye Yuan and Su Yubai determined Liu Ruoshui’s fate.
When Liu Ruoshui heard Su Yubai’s words, she ran hastily to Su Yishan’s side and pulled on his arm, begging for his help. “Senior Apprentice Brother Su, I . . . I don’t want to . . .”
Su Yishan pulled his arm back, and Liu Ruoshui staggered, collapsing onto the ground.
Su Yishan was still enraged after being humiliated by Ye Yuan and felt that this woman was a troublemaker. Why would he pity her?
“Do you feel that it’s still up to you at this juncture?” Su Yishan said coldly.
. . . . . .
In Feng Ruoqing’s pill refinement room, Ye Yuan and Feng Ruoqing swapped roles. Feng Ruoqing did the series of preparation work for Ye Yuan’s pill refinement.
“Sigh, I say, can’t you just rest for a while? You just came back from the Nine Heavens Road, yet you caused another big upheaval in the entire academy,” Feng Ruoqing grumbled as she did her job.
Ye Yuan was seriously too proficient at causing disturbances. Even since his abrupt rise, it seemed like the academy had never had a break.
“Heh. Not that I’m unwilling to stop, it’s just that there’s always some people who keep finding trouble. Lu-er is my kin. If I can’t take revenge for her after being hurt to such an extent, how can I be fit to be her young master? Also, how can I face her after she wakes up in a few days? If they want to touch me, then just come at me openly. Even if I’m beaten till I’m crippled, I also won’t harbor such a grudge. But if they touch my family and friends . . . absolutely not!”
She did not know why, but after hearing Ye Yuan’s words, Feng Ruoqing’s heart involuntarily quaked, and she blurted out, “If I suffered like Lu-er, would you be like this too?”
“Of course! Aren’t we good friends?” Ye Yuan said without thinking.
Blissfulness instantly seeped into her heart, making Feng Ruoqing feel a never before experience, a sense of satisfaction.
“But . . . I’m afraid I don’t have that opportunity, right? You’re a proud daughter of heaven, the youngest high-rank Alchemy Master in the Dan Wu Academy. Who would dare to bully you!” Ye Yuan added.
Feng Ruoqing smiled sweetly and said, “That might not be the case. Who knows there might really come a day where I, this proud daughter of heaven, would require your protection.”
“Haha, I’m afraid that it’s the honor of every male in the Dan Wu Academy to be able to protect Teacher Feng, right?” Ye Yuan chuckled.
Feng Ruoqing blushed lightly and diverted the topic. “Oh, right, is there really such a medicinal pill called the Truth Pill? It’s also imparted to you by your Master
?”
Ye Yuan nodded and said, “The Truth Pill actually isn’t some profound medicinal pill. It’s a type of medicinal pill which is applied to the divine soul, making the martial artist’s divine soul give up resistance. Since there’s a medicinal pill which strengthens soul strength like the Soul Nourishing Pill, there’s naturally the Truth Pill.”
Feng Ruoqing came to a realization. “So that’s how it is! Looks like my horizons are still too shallow. It turns out that if we think about the problem from another perspective, there’s actually such an effect!”
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “This can’t be rushed. Master’s realm is remarkably high. How can I compare to his horizons? Such a simple logic, if I had to come up with a way, I might not be able to conceive it in my entire life. Even when his cultivation was at our current realm, he might not even have understood this logic.”
Only then did Feng Ruoqing feel at ease. “You are right. Cultivation realm determines one’s horizons. Looks like my road is still long. The preparation work is done. Start the furnace and refine the pill.”
Ye Yuan nodded and started refining the Truth Pill.
Compared to during the Alchemist Test, no matter whether it was essence energy or soul strength, Ye Yuan was way stronger. It would naturally not be as strenuous for the current Ye Yuan to refine low-grade Tier 2 medicinal pills using the Yin-Yang Separation Flow Technique.
. . . . . .
After two hours, Ye Yuan appeared in front of Su Yubai once more, holding a bottle of freshly made Truth Pills.
“This is the Truth Pill. Does Elder Su wish to personally try it out?” Ye Yuan said with a smile.
“Snort! The person testing the medicine is already arranged. I’ll watch just how you clean up the scene later!”
While Ye Yuan was refining, Su Yubai already inquired from several Alchemy Dao experts. None of them had heard of Truth Pill.
Even if Ye Yuan was a low-rank Alchemy Master, could he be stronger than the seniors in the academy?
Hence, Su Yubai had long determined that Ye Yuan was misleading others through trickery. All so that Liu Ruoshui would obediently submit.
