Zhao Chenggan was full of hatred in his heart!
Who said that you did not have enemies? You just offended the entire Tong Family a couple of days back, alright?
These words from Ye Yuan was clearly borrowing his influence to suppress the Tong Family. Furthermore, whoever Ye Yuan provoked in the capital later on, he even had to make an appearance to settle it.
What the hell was this?!
But at this critical juncture, Zhao Chenggan had to swallow it too even if his teeth were shattered!
“That’s of course! As long as anything happens of Young Master Ji in the capital, it can all be counted on my head! At that time, I’ll apologize for my crime with death!” Zhao Chenggan clenched his teeth and said.
Such a major incident, it was naturally impossible for those surrounding and watching to be ordinary martial artists. There were bound to be many people from large families and large influences among them.
Him making such a promise in front of so many people was virtually pinning a death-exemption medallion on Ye Yuan!
No matter how large these factions were, how many dared to oppose the Wind Emperor?
Even if the seventh prince could not represent the Wind Emperor, and even if the seventh prince lost such a tremendous amount of face today, he was still the strongest among the princes, and also the person with the greatest likelihood of inheriting the position of Wind Emperor!
Ye Yuan smiled faintly and said in a clear voice, “There are so many people here today. Everybody be a witness. This small life of mine is all in the hands of His Highness, the Seventh Prince! If one day, any mishap happens to me, Ji Qing, it cannot be free of relation with His Highness, the Seventh Prince!”
Obviously, no one dared to really answer. But Ye Yuan did not need their response.
His objective was already accomplished when Zhao Chenggan said these words.
“Haha, looks like Your Highness is indeed 100% sincere. I, Ji Qing, naturally can’t fail to appreciate kindness as well. Please return, Your Highness; this matter will end here,” Ye Yuan said with a smile.
Zhao Chenggan said hesitatingly, “Young Master Ji, then . . . the medicinal pill matter.”
“Medicinal pill? What medicinal pill?” Ye Yuan asked with a puzzled look.
Zhao Chenggan was fuming inwardly. He did not believe that Ye Yuan was unaware of the Alchemist Association’s sanctions on the royal family. He was feigning ignorance right now!
But, in front of so many people, he could not say it too obviously either. He was stifled until internal injuries were about to erupt.
He originally thought that Ye Yuan would invite him in to talk. Who knew that Ye Yuan made him return right away?
“Haha, n-nothing,” Zhao Chenggan said embarrassedly.
“Oh, nothing huh? Then I’ll head back first, Your Highness. Seniors are still waiting for me to learn alchemy,” Ye Yuan said with a beam as if he and Zhao Chenggan were friends.
“Ah? H-Haha, go ahead, go ahead.”
Zhao Chenggan did not know if this was considered completing the mission either; he also did not know what Ye Yuan planned on doing. His heart was still palpitating with uneasiness.
If Star Abyss did not withdraw the sanctions, it would still be hard for him to escape death!
. . . . . .
After returning to the mountain, the group of seniors gave a round of fierce praises to Ye Yuan.
“Hur hur, Little Junior Brother isn’t old, but you’re extremely adept in handling things! I think after that Zhao Chenggan goes back, he’ll also have no appetite for food and drinks these two days!” Shi Haoran said with a big laugh.
“Yeah. That Zhao Chenggan is used to being rampant and domineering. Today, he lost face all the way home and even had to gift Little Junior Brother a death-exemption medallion! It’s truly losing one’s wife as well as one’s soldiers!” You Guang said.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Not at all. This matter is still ultimately Master’s sanctions that’s impressive!”

“Hehe, it’s true that Master’s sanctions are formidable, but the way Little Junior Brother dealt with things magnified the battle results to the extreme! Not only did it eliminate the hidden danger of the Tong Family, it even supplemented a death-exemption medallion for yourself! Truly impressive!” Second Senior Brother Tang Zhi said with a laugh.
“Haha, Second Senior Brother is too kind. I was also just claiming some interest. I didn’t think that this Seventh Prince could actually endure such humiliation for an important goal and doing such a thing like bearing thorns to ask for punishment,” Ye Yuan said with a laugh.
“En. It was indeed contrary to all expectations! That child knows when to yield and when not to, and his martial strength is also extremely formidable. Indeed not what the other princes can compare to. Absolutely the bearing of a fierce and ambitious person. Barring no accidents, the next Wind Emperor is very likely to be him! Hence, you should still be more careful in the future, Little Junior Brother, in case this boy uses some underhanded tricks,” Shi Haoran warned him.
The incident this time also let everyone have a brand new understanding of Zhao Chenggan.
The high and mighty Wind Emperor successor actually did this sort of self-belittling thing, making entire capital drop their glasses.
But thinking about it carefully, this method of doing things was the best way to handle things at present.
Even if Ye Yuan was way less understanding of what was good or bad for him, it was also not possible to let this sanction carry on.
Otherwise, the Qixia Mountain lineage would also become unreasonable even with justification.
With Zhao Chenggan’s status, doing everything to this step was already his limits. If Ye Yuan still refused to budge, that was being unappreciative.
If the Royal Family and the Alchemist Association, these two giants, really ruptured completely, neither side could bear the consequences.
At that time, the one who would be put in an awkward situation would not be the Wind Emperor but Star Abyss himself.
It was precisely because so that Ye Yuan’s way of handling things was grasped perfectly. It could gain the greatest benefits and also reflect a magnanimous heart.
As for Zhao Chenggan’s apology, Ye Yuan simply paid no attention to it at all.
How could he possibly be deceived by this sort of superficial act? The more sincere Zhao Chenggan’s apology was, the more intense his hatred towards him.
This sort of high and lofty ambitious fierce person would never feel that they were wrong.
“Rest assured, Eldest Senior Brother. I have a score in my heart. Oh, right, Seniors, from today onwards, I’m going to enter seclusion for a month and won’t be able to expound on the Alchemy Path with Seniors anymore,” Ye Yuan said.
“En? Entering a retreat so soon?”
Hearing that Ye Yuan was going to enter seclusion, the few people felt a great sense of loss in their hearts.
These few days, they truly reaped no little benefits by exchanging knowledge together with Ye Yuan. There were even more gains compared to listening to Star Abyss preaching the Dao.
Carrying on at this speed, them having some breakthrough in alchemy were inevitable. But Ye Yuan actually entered seclusion at this time. They were naturally quite reluctant to let go.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Yes. I sense that I’m about to break through, so I’ve decided to enter a retreat to pour all my efforts into breaking through realms!”
“Like that eh? Alright then,” Shi Haoran said.
. . . . . .
Ye Yuan returned to his own residence. A streak of white silhouette suddenly assaulted towards him.
The white silhouette’s speed was exceedingly quickly. Ye Yuan was actually unable to evade with his movement technique!
“Violent Blaze Transforming Dragon!”
In a hurry, Ye Yuan execute a Violent Blaze
Transforming Dragon, colliding together with the white silhouette!
Bang!
The white silhouette directly flew out, while Ye Yuan also fell back two steps from the enormous collision force.
But Ye Yuan was not astonished; he became overjoyed instead and said, “White Light! You actually broke through!”
“Y-Yes . . . Big Brother . . .”
A slightly choppy and tender voice transmitted into Ye Yuan’s mind. It was universal beast language!
“En? Have you unlocked your inherited memories?” Ye Yuan was astonished again.
“Yes.” This time, White Light was clearly way smoother when talking.
“Haha! You brat, your breakthrough speed is too rapid! It’s almost catching up to this young master!” Seeing White Light open his mouth to speak, Ye Yuan was also very glad.
White Light smiled and said, “Big Brother, you’re the real freak. Your breakthrough speed is too fast, completely without bottlenecks!”
“En? Just a few year old little kid, you’re actually calling me big brother?” Ye Yuan said huffily.
“If I don’t call you big brother, what do I call you then? I don’t want to call you master. Proud divine beasts will never become a human’s lackey!” White Light raised his tiger head with a prideful look.
Ye Yuan was also tickled by his appearance and said with a smile, “I didn’t ask you to call me master. But I can be your uncle with my age, right? Come, call uncle and let me hear!”
Hearing Ye Yuan’s words, White Light nearly stumbled to the ground. He said sulkily, “Knock it off! Don’t you humans all address each other using cultivation realms? Now that I broke through to Tier 3 as well, what’s wrong with calling you big brother?”
“Uh, this really does seem to be the case. Fine. Big brother then.” Ye Yuan’s heart stirred, and he enquired, “Oh, right, do you know your origins now that you unlocked your inherited memories?”
Ye Yuan was very curious about White Light’s origin. He was clearly a descendant of the Flowing Light White Tiger, yet he had treasure seeking abilities. It was too weird.
But White Light shook his head and said, “Don’t know. I only unlocked a very small portion of inherited memories. The rest are still sealed and completely can’t be opened up yet.”
Ye Yuan said disappointedly, “Like this huh, that’s too bad. If we know your origin, we can maybe suit our methods to your situation. Who knows, you might be able to break through to Divine Beast Realm!”
Hearing Ye Yuan’s words, White Light was also quite disappointed.
Ye Yuan suddenly asked again, “Then, what kind of inherited memories have you awakened? Let’s have a look.”
To divine beasts, inherited memories were something extremely precious. Under normal circumstances, they would never tell it to humans.
But ever since the death of his mother, White Light treated Ye Yuan as his only kin. Or else, he would also not have fought Zhao Chenggan to the death under the situation where he was aware he could not contend with him to protect Ye Yuan.
“Uh . . . All some random and messy stuff. Such as this kind of thing like the universal beast language. To say the most useful one, it will be a cultivation method that was awakened. But, it’s only to the third level too,” White Light said.
“En? What kind of cultivation method?” Ye Yuan asked curiously.
“White Tiger Darklight Divine Art!” White Light said.
“It’s actually a divine art!” Ye Yuan said in astonishment.
Although Ye Yuan also cultivated in a divine art, this did not mean that divine arts were common wares.
The birth of each divine art would stir up a bloody struggle in the Divine Realm.
But a little white tiger that Ye Yuan found in the Lower Realms actually had a divine art in his inherited memories! This was too inconceivable!
Although Ye Yuan had not heard of this set of divine art, its power was beyond all doubt!
“Yeah! I didn’t know it myself, but actually I’ve already started cultivating this divine art long ago. It’s actually like a part of my body,” White Light said.
Ye Yuan suddenly remembered something and could not help being greatly astonished as he said, “Could it be that . . . when you swallowed those medicinal pills, your body automatically revolved the White Tiger Darklight Divine Art?”
White Light nodded and said, “Yes.”
Ye Yuan’s expression became peculiar. “Then the third level that you awakened, it’s not that . . . you can also raise your realm by swallowing medicinal pills, right?”
White Light had an innocent face as he said with a frank nod, “Big Brother is indeed incredible! Guessing it in one try!”
“I guess . . . your head ah!” Ye Yuan forcefully stifled back a swear word.
Chapter 404

Eating medicinal pills and sleeping, raising realm unconsciously.
This was the cultivation process that so many martial artists dreamt about! But even if Ye Yuan’s cultivation did not have bottlenecks, it was also not possible to reach such a state!
Cultivation was like sailing against the current, either advance or regress.
On the matter of cultivation, no martial artists dared to slack off.
But White Light’s cultivation method, any martial artist who saw it would have an impulse to beat him up. Ye Yuan was no exemption either.
Seeing that dim gaze from Ye Yuan, all the fur on White Light’s body stood up.
Suddenly, Ye Yuan’s figure flashed, and he vanished.
White Light immediately felt that something was wrong, but it was already too late. Ye Yuan caught hold of him.
“What White Tiger Darklight Divine Art?! What can even cultivate when sleeping?! Maddening your big brother to death! How can there be such a perverse divine art in this world?”
Ye Yuan rubbed White Light’s tiger head furiously, rubbing until he was dizzy.
By the time Ye Yuan stopped, all White Light could see were stars.
“Huff, huff . . .” Ye Yuan was also panting, dog tired.
Messing around was messing around. Not that Ye Yuan was jealous of this cultivation method, it was just that he felt somewhat unfair.
The cultivation method that White Light awakened should be a divine art that was tailor-made for the same kind of divine beast. Humans were unable to cultivate it. Even if Ye Yuan asked for it, it was useless too.
“Doesn’t that mean that I’ll have to provide medicinal pills for you non-stop in the future to let you cultivate?” Ye Yuan looked at White Light from the corner of his eye.
Hearing these words from Ye Yuan, White Light gave a flattering low roar and rubbed his face against Ye Yuan’s cheek, saying, “Haha! I know that Big Brother is the best!”
“Best my *ss! Don’t kiss my *ss! Who did I provoke? To become a pill refining coolie?” Ye Yuan had a gloomy look.
“Hehe, how can you say coolie? Big Brother’s alchemy skills are unparalleled in this world! Find happiness in it . . . Furthermore, I, White Light, still have some capabilities. I’ll definitely find more treasures for Big Brother!” White Light said fawningly.
Ye Yuan said huffily, “I say, how did you know to follow me back then? Could it be that you already know that I knew alchemy back then?”
“Uh . . . I don’t know either. I just felt especially cordial when I saw Big Brother, so I followed you in a daze,” White Light said in confusion.
“Alright! I’m scared of you! I’m going to begin closed-seclusion to cultivate. This time, I’m going to break through to the Seventh Level Crystal Formation Realm in one stroke!” Ye Yuan said.
White Light trembled and nearly slipped off from Ye Yuan’s shoulder.
“S-Seventh Level Crystal Formation Realm?! Big Brother, are you mistaken? You’re only at the Second Level Crystal Formation Realm!” White Light was taken aback by Ye Yuan.
“Not mistaken. It’s Seventh Level Crystal
Formation Realm! This time, Zhao Chenggan that punk almost killed us, making me very peeved! Each one of you all bullying that my realm is low, right? I’ll break through for them to see!” Ye Yuan said annoyedly.
All along, Ye Yuan’s adversaries were all way stronger than him. This made it very disadvantageous for him every time he fought.
Even if his essence energy was much thicker than other people, the disparity in realms could not be made up for.
Although Ye Yuan defeated his opponents in the end, it had the feeling of walking on a tightrope practically every time.
A few days back, if not for Shi Haoran making a move, he would already have been killed by Zhao Chenggan.
While Zhao Chenggan’s strength was decent, it was still too far away compared to Ye Yuan. The reason why he was formidable was because of his realm!
Zhao Chenggan comprehended true intent; for Ye Yuan to want to cross a major realm to win him, it was too difficult!
Hence, Ye Yuan resolved his heart this time to enter closed-seclusion for a month and planned on breaking through five realms in succession!
This was an impossible mission to others, but to Ye Yuan, it was merely a question of time.
** . . . . . .**
Day two, the rear of the mountains where Ye Yuan was in seclusion.
Shi Haoran passed a storage ring to Ye Yuan and said, “These are the Tier 3 medicinal herbs that Little Junior Brother you requested. It’s all prepared properly.”
Ye Yuan clasped his hands and said, “Thank you very much, Eldest Senior Brother!”
“What’s there to thank? Merely just some Tier 3 medicinal herbs, not a big deal. But you made me prepare so many portions for you; you’re not planning on refining pills alone, right? Could it be that this one month, you’re planning on refining a batch of Tier 3 medicinal pills?” Shi Haoran asked curiously.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Wanting so many medicinal herbs is naturally to use to refine medicinal pills. But my closed-seclusion this time is in order to break through realms.”
