Unrivaled Medicine God c1-2204

by Feng Yise

  If not for Ye Yuan's control towards essence fires being already at the peak of perfection, he would have been burned by the Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame until not even residue would be left currently.

  Even so, his present state was an indescribable mess. He could only call out Nanfeng Zhirou to bring him to escape.

  Boom!

  An incomparably oppressive explosion sounded out. The entire underground cave started quaking.

  Chapter 179 - Ye Hang Exits Seclusion!

  The State of Qin's capital.

  These few days had been relatively lively.

  No reason other than because the Drunken Star Manor had sent out invitations to organize a Pill Grading Assembly.

  For close to a month, the Drunken Star Manor could be said to be infinitely glorious and faintly had the manner of controlling the State of Qin's alchemy industry,

  Ever since the Essence Gathering Pill was launched, the Drunken Star Manor had been as crowded as a marketplace. Every day, there would be large batches of martial artists gathering, just to beg to purchase the Essence Gathering Pill.

  And this time, Wan Donghai even unleashed a big move, organizing this Pill Grading Assembly, and inviting virtually all the upper echelons in the State of Qin.

  It was said that the Drunken Star Manor wanted to launch three new medicinal pills all at once at this Pill Grading Assembly. It would be a radical revolution to the State of Qin's alchemy world!

  Such explosive news would naturally cause massive commotions in the State of Qin.

  Because of the Essence Gathering Pill as the precedent, the news released by Drunken Star Manor would naturally stir up all the martial artists' appetite.

  An Essence Gathering Pill already changed the alchemy's power balance in the State of Qin. If they launched three new types of medicinal pills at once, what kind of change would it trigger?

  Most likely, not as simple as bringing down Fragrant Medicine Pavilion.

  No matter what, not only did the Drunken Star Manor's actions draw the attention of all the upper echelons in the State of Qin, it also aroused a huge focus from the commoner martial artists.

  Even though the Drunken Star Manor's reputation among demonic beast hunters was already bad, there were still many people purchasing medicinal pills here.

  This was something that could not be helped. After all, Essence Qi Realm martial artists made up the largest group, and the Essence Gathering Pill was a unique medicinal pill from the Drunken Star Manor.

  These martial artists had no other choice!

  And starting from that time, the Drunken Star Manor had taken a series of measures to suppress the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion. Now, they already virtually monopolized the State of Qin's medicinal pill market.

  Other than those deadly loyal like Shi Kaiyong, the vast majority of the people were either forced to or took the initiative to go to the Drunken Star Manor to buy medicinal pills.

  The situation for the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion was already at the extent of a hair's breadth from death.

  And currently, Ye Hang was still in closed-seclusion.

  . . . . . .

  At the Wan Family, a middle-aged man in fine clothing sat opposite Wan Donghai.

  Composure and overbearingness exuded from the middle-aged man. In terms of aura, he was actually not the slightest bit weaker than Wan Donghai!

  "Brother Yulin, this time, our Wan Family and Su Family joining hands; we must rule the State of Qin's alchemy world!" Wan Donghai seemed to be extremely proud of his success at present.

  The middle-aged man in finery was precisely the Su Family's Family Head, Su Yulin! An existence who could make the State of Qin quake just by stomping his feet!

  Su Yulin was not as delighted as Wan Donghai. He just said lightly, "Ruling the alchemy world is but the beginning. After Manor Lord Wan sits on the highest commanding seat in the State of Qin's alchemy world, don't forget about our agreement!"

  "What are you saying, Brother Yulin. Our two families have collaborated for so many years, don't Brother Yulin understand my, Wan Donghai's, character yet? The Nanfeng Family has grown weak and cannot carry the State of Qin anymore long ago. The Su Family replacing them is only the common will of the people. This Wan naturally will not go against heaven!"

  "Haha, then that's good! This Su will wish Manor Lord Wan in advance for fulfilling a long-cherished wish and thoroughly defeating the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion!"

  "Haha, isn't that all thanks to Brother Yulin? If not for the new medicinal pill Brother Yulin provided, this Wan also won't have today! Rest assure, Brother Yulin. In future, when Brother Yulin replaces Nanfeng Yi, this Wan will be the Imperial Family's Royal Alchemist!"

  "En, Manor Lord Wan has the heart. It's just that I'm still somewhat worried at the moment. The news about the Pill Grading Assembly has already been released for such a long time, but there's no movement from Nanfeng Yi at all. Could it be that he's planning something?"

  "Brother Yulin is thinking too much! The talents in the Imperial Family have withered. What other capable person is there apart from the old undying, Nanfeng Lou? Oh, right, I still haven't congratulated Brother Yulin for the breakthrough to the Second Level Crystal Formation Realm! Now, other than Wu Daofeng and Jiang Yunhe these two neutral parties, who is a match for Brother Yulin in the entire State of Qin? Isn't Brother Yuling being able to break through at this time proving who the mandate of heaven should belong to from another perspective?"

  "Haha, perhaps I'm really overthinking things. But it's just these few days, the envoy from the high sect is already set to arrive at the Dan Wu Academy. With the support of the envoy, the transition of authority should also be smoother."

  But Wan Donghai's face changed when he heard that and sensibly did not continue the conversation.

  So, it turned out that the Su Family had such a deep background in the Tranquil Cloud Sect. No wonder they dared to do such a heaven-defying thing. Su Yulin revealing this matter to him was also giving him a disguised warning, to make him not have overly inordinate ambitions.

  "Ha-Haha, looks like Brother Yulin is really fully prepared! Oh yes, I heard that Ye Hang's son participated in the Endless Trials and has not returned this whole time. He probably already died in the Endless Forest, right? Now, Ye Hang even lost his son. Most likely, he will be in a thundering rage after exiting seclusion." Wan Donghai changed the topic very sensibly.

  Who would know that it was still okay if Wan Donghai did not mention it, but once it was mentioned, Su Yulin's face changed.

  The one who was missing was not just Ye Hang's son. His son also went missing too! No matter how Su Yulin ruminated, he could not understand. He sent the Chang brothers to assist his son. Why wasn't there any news up till now?"

  Could it be that after they killed Ye Yuan, they encountered some other matter and was delayed?

  "Humph! The Pill Grading Assembly is coming soon, Manor Lord Wan shouldn't bother about these minor details and focus on the bigger things! This Su still has some matters to attend to, so I'll leave first!" Su Yulin said unhappily.

  Wan Donghai felt rather bewildered and did not know where he had offended Su Yulin.

  . . . . . .

  A martial artist with a manservant appearance walked loftily into the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion. The manager Feng San dozed off listlessly and did not see anyone enter from the start.

  "Is there still anyone alive? Someone come out!" the manservant called out very haughtily.

  Feng San was startled awake. When he saw the manservant's outfit, he could not help being enraged. "This punk from God knows where dares to be so ill-mannered here! Do you know what this place is?!"

  The manservant gave a side glance at Feng San and said smugly, "This Little Lord naturally knows what this place is. Just a broken store that's about to close down. Feng San, this Little Lord sees that you have some capabilities. How about coming to the Drunken Star Manor and make a living with this little lord!"

  Fe
ng San was enraged when he heard that and said, "An errand boy servant actually dares to make me, Feng San, mix around with you?! Why don't you take a piss and check out your reflection? Who do you think you are?!"

  "Heh heh, don't be angry, Manager Feng. It's true that I'm an errand boy, but I'm afraid that Manager Feng's current situation is worse than running errands, right? Me letting you mix around with me is giving you a chance! If not, when the Pill Grading Assembly commences, I'm afraid that it wouldn't be so easy for Manager Feng to find a job then."

  Feng San reached out and pointed his finger at the door and said furiously, "Get out for your father! If you don't get lost, your father will throw you out of here! Even if I, Feng San, were to starve to death, I wouldn't go to the Drunken Star Manor to lick boots!"

  The manservant took out an invitation card unhurriedly and waved it around in front of Feng San, saying, "See this? My family's Manor Lord specially issued an invitation to your Fragrant Medicine Pavilion in consideration of former relations. If Manager Feng continues to chase me out, that would be breaking off from the State of Qin's alchemy world!"

  Feng San was unable to hold back his wrath anymore. This punk was here to deliver the invitation to humiliate the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion!

  The Fragrant Medicine Pavilion was already like this. Why would they attend some Pill Grading Assembly? To reach their faces out for people to smack?

  "Bring your lousy invitation along and scram for your father! Otherwise, I'm really going to take action!" as he said this, Feng San pulled up his sleeves and was really about to beat people up.

  Just then, a deep voice sounded out. "Stop, Feng San! This invitation card, our Fragrant Medicine Pavilion accepts! You, go back and tell Wan Donghai that the Pill Grading Assembly, I, Ye Hang, will definitely be there!"

  Chapter 180 - Nanfeng Yi

  "Owner! You finally left seclusion!"

  Feng San who was raging turned around and saw Ye Hang. He immediately rejoiced.

  Nobody could have understood just how Feng San had survived over this one month period!

  But when he saw Ye Hang exit seclusion, everything was worth it!

  "Tch, isn't it just leaving seclusion? What's the fuss about? At this time, what the use even if you exit seclusion?"

  Seeing Ye Hang, the manservant was also very shocked. But he quickly puffed up his c.h.e.s.t again.

  Our Drunken Star Manor is the strongest now!

  Even if Ye Hang exited seclusion, could he stem the raging tide?

  Impossible!

  "You dare to disrespect Owner? Courting death!" Feng San was enraged when he heard that and wanted to slap that manservant to death in one palm.

  "Forget it. Just a small fry. Let him go," Ye hang said coolly.

  With his status, there was no need to square every detail with a small fry.

  "Haha, Pavilion Lord Ye is indeed a person who knows the grand situation! I think that as long as Pavilion Lord Ye pledges allegiance to our Manor Lord at the Pill Grading Assembly, he should forgive you magnanimously! Oh, I've already delivered the invitation. Goodbye, Pavilion Lord Ye!"

  The manservant really took himself for some big shot and clasped his hands at Ye Hang, then took large strides and left.

  Feng San was so angry that he was gnashing his teeth in hatred by the side. With a displeased face, he said, "Owner, even a servant from the Drunken Star Manor dares to come to taunt us Fragrant Medicine Pavilion now! In my opinion, kill this punk first to teach the Drunken Star Manor a lesson!"

  Ye Yuan waved his hands and said with a smile, "This servant is just a small character. Wouldn't killing him show our incompetence even more? That we can only take our anger out on the Drunken Star Manor's servants? To find a ground, of course we have to find their family's a.d.u.l.ts!"

  Feng San's eyebrows jumped as he understood some meaning behind it. He said joyfully, "Owner means that . . ."

  Ye Hang took over the invitation and said playfully, "He, Wan Donghai, wants to use this Pill Grading Assembly to rule the State of Qin's alchemy world. I'm afraid that it's isn't so easy!"

  "Haha . . . I knew that the owner wouldn't admit defeat so easily!" Feng San was ecstatic when he saw that. But he immediately frowned again, saying, "Owner, it's said that Wan Donghai wants to launch three new types of medicinal pills by organizing this Pill Grading Assembly! Just an Essence Gathering Pill has already left us badly battered. If three more were to appear, we . . ."

  "Relax, Old Feng! Competing with medicinal pills, I . . . Errr . . . Should be us, father and son, have never feared anyone! This time, we're going to let everyone broaden their horizons!" Ye Hang said heroically.

  Feng San looked at Ye Hang, and his eyes could not help showing astonishment.

  Just now, Ye Hang clearly planned on saying himself, but when the words were at the tip of his tongue, he brought along Ye Yuan!

  A venerable Alchemy Grandmaster was actually deliberately bringing along his son. Why was that?

  . . . . . .

  In a courtyard within the imperial palace, Ye Yuan was currently lying on a vine chair, sitting with his ankle on his knees. There were even two beautiful palace maids fanning him from behind. He looked like he was enjoying himself very much.

  "Ye Yuan! Is your Beauty Retaining Pill finished refining yet? If it's not done, this princess will burn down this mansion and send you to heaven!"

  Nanfeng Zhirou's angry cry broke this courtyard's tranquility.

  Ye Yuan jumped in fright and hurriedly went out in big strides. Indeed, he saw Nanfeng Zhirou carrying a fire torch in her hands posing like she was lighting a fire. Nanfeng Ruoqing was covering her mouth while laughing behind Nanfeng Zhirou.

  This woman would do what she said. A single mishap and she would really burn this place.

  "Don't, don't, don't! My grandaunt, this is your family's house, what are you burning it for?"

  "I don't care! Today, if you don't refine the Beauty Retaining Pill for me, I'll burn this place!"

  "Seriously, can't you wait for two days? My injuries have just healed. I also just refined the Essence Yang Pill two days ago and sapped a great deal of my vitality. You at least got to give me time to rest, right? Otherwise, if I were to ruin the refinement of the Beauty Retaining Pill, wouldn't that destroy Senior Apprentice Sister's unparalleled looks?"

  After coming out from the underground cave, Ye Yuan let Nanfeng Zhirou bring him to hide in the palace. Just like this, Su Yishan and Ye Yuan disappeared at the same time.

  Ye Yuan had ready-made medicinal pills on him, but his injuries this time were too severe. He only barely managed to recover after recuperating for three days.

  After recovering, Ye Yuan refined the Essence Yang Pill without delay and let Nanfeng Zhirou deliver it to the Dan Wu Academy in secret.

  Ever since Ye Yuan recovered, Nanfeng Zhirou had been thinking about her Beauty Retaining Pills. She would come here every day to compel Ye Yuan to refine it.

  But Ye Yuan's body right now was indeed not that great. So it was delayed a few days.

  The ill-tempered but beauty loving Nanfeng Zhirou finally could not endure it anymore today, so she ran here to threaten Ye Yuan!

  "I don't care! I must see the Beauty Retaining Pill today!" Nanfeng Zhirou refused to yield.

  Right at this time, a voice sounded out from behind them. "Zhirou, back off! Don't be mischievous!"

  "Ah, Imperial Father! I . . . I was joking with Ye Yuan! Right, Ye Yuan?" Nanfeng Zhirou used her gaze to threaten Ye Yuan.

  The middle-aged man in front of Ye Yuan was as handsome as jade and had a grandiose manner. The air of a king could not be covered up no matter what!

  This person was precisely Nanfeng Ruoqing's Imperial Brother, Nanfeng Zhirou's father, the State of Qin's Emperor, Nanfeng Yi!

  This was also the first time Ye Yuan met Nanfeng Yi. This person gave him the deep feeling like he was in grasp of everything.

  Nanfeng Yi was sizing up Ye Yuan, but at the same time, Ye Yuan w
as also appraising Nanfeng Yi without the intention of saluting.

  An Alchemy Emperor had the pride of an Alchemy Emperor. Even if he rebirthed, it was also impossible to kneel down and salute a mortal emperor.

  Nanfeng Yi did not mind Nanfeng Zhirou and only said coolly, "Ruoqing, you bring Zhirou back first. I have some things to say to Little Brother Ye."

  Nanfeng Yi actually gave tacit consent to Ye Yuan's rude actions!

  "Yes." Nanfeng Ruoqing received the command and brought her niece back. The few palace maids naturally also withdrew.

  However, while Nanfeng Ruoqing did not show anything on the surface, she was very alarmed in her heart.

  Imperial Brother actually called Ye Yuan as Little Brother!

  This sort of address was undoubtedly placing Ye Yuan on equal footing as him!

  In Nanfeng Ruoqing's impression, she had never seen Imperial Brother place a person so highly before. And this person was merely a 15 years old child!

  For the emperor to address his subjects as brothers, just hearing it sounded very peculiar!

  While Nanfeng Ruoqing knew that Ye Yuan was not an ordinary child, this term of address by Nanfeng Yi was still sufficient to alarm her.

  After Nanfeng Ruoqing and the rest left, Nanfeng Yi and Ye Yuan entered the courtyard and sat down in the pavilion in the garden.

  "I'm indebted to Little Brother Ye for having taken care of my daughter and sister these few days. I express my thanks to Little Brother Ye on their behalf." Nanfeng Yi actually gave thanks right away, making Ye Yuan somewhat surprised.

  "Your Majesty is too serious. It's just the effort of lifting a hand, not worthy of thanks. Furthermore, they also helped me quite a bit." Ye Yuan accepted it calmly and did not decline anything.

  From the other party's attitude, he could also see that his matter was already also long known by Nanfeng Yi through Nanfeng Ruoqing and niece.

  Nanfeng Yi waved his hand and said, "That's not the same. The aid you gave them is enough for them to use their entire lives!"

  Ye Yuan just smiled and said, "I'm afraid that Your Majesty didn't look for me just to give thanks, right? Let's go straight into the main topic. I don't like to beat around the bush."
