Finishing, he turned to Yao Qian again, saying, "Ye Yuan is young and aggressive. Pray that Lord Yao Qian will not take offense."
Facing Jiang Yunhe's reprimand, Ye Yuan did not voice anything. He knew that this was Jiang Yunhe reminding him that this journey to the Tranquil Cloud Sect had to be through the two of them and they could not be offended.
Yao Qian did not express anything. He just said indifferently, "The affairs of young people, just let them resolve it themselves. We old fellows should not interfere."
Yao Qian's status in the Tranquil Cloud Sect was much higher than him. Since he said so, Jiang Yunhe obviously could not say much. He just felt slightly displeased.
He naturally knew why this Yao Qian was targeting Ye Yuan. But he did not think that it would be so obvious, putting Ye Yuan down right after coming.
Yao Qian was an alchemist from the Ouyang Family line. He had very good relations with Ouyang Ming. Jiang Yunhe instantly felt that something was off when he saw him serve as the envoy.
Jiang Yunhe did not think that it was merely a coincidence for the sect to send Yao Qian over.
Indeed, the gunpowder smell started right after Ye Yuan entered!
Initially, he was still harboring a compromising attitude, hoping that Yao Qian would give him this face. Who knew that Yao Qian's light sentence would directly press down his stomach full of words?
This one elderly and one youth were truly going too far. An Eighth Level Spirit Condensation Realm actually verbally provoked a Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm. This was simply utterly shameless!
Even though this was Jiang Yunhe's first contact with Ye Yuan, he had long heard about everything he had done. He knew that this punk was definitely not some obedient baby. He might really just accept the provocation.
Jiang Yunhe knew that Ye Yuan was very monstrous, but the disparity between him and Yang Hao was not an ordinary kind of big.
Even though Ye Yuan advancing to Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm made him very surprised, it was still impossible to be Yang Hao's match.
Jiang Yunhe signaled with his eyes at Ye Yuan, but Ye Yuan simply ignored him.
"How about it, number one person in a millennium? Dare to compete?" Yang Hao looked at Ye Yuan pleased with himself as he squeezed with his words.
Even a clay bodhisattva have 30% anger, let alone Ye Yuan. While he did not know what the reason was, these two fellows were clearly targeting him.
If Ye Yuan could endure, then he would not be Ye Yuan anymore!
"If I don't even dare to answer the challenge of some second-rate talent, how can I dare be called the number one person in a millennium? Say it then; compete in what?"
Ye Yuan directly acknowledged this title of 'number one in a millennium' and stepped on Yang Hao again along the way.
Jiang Yunhe sighed in his heart. This punk indeed could not take the spurring!
The corner of Yang Hao's lips twitched when he heard that. This was a typical case of opening a dying factory after giving a bit of color, right?
However, when I trample you underfoot in a while, let's see if you dare to be so c.o.c.ky!
He stole a glance at the two-star badge on Ye Yuan's c.h.e.s.t and said in a scornful way, "Junior Apprentice Brother Ye's realm is too low. If we compete on the martial path, I might not win using my true abilities. Since Junior Apprentice Brother Ye is also an Alchemy Master, let's compete in alchemy skills. I wonder what Junior Apprentice Brother Ye's opinion is?"
Ye Yuan smiled. He smiled very happily.
Seen before retards, but never met anyone so retarded.
Ignoring the crushing advantage of cultivation realm and just had to choose something about alchemy skills. It looks like this fellow was very confident in his alchemy skills!
But . . . seeking out an Alchemy Emperor to compete in alchemy skills. How did Yang Hao have the nerve to come up with that?
Huyan Yong did not say anything ever since entering the house. He was also expressionless right now, but he was so delighted that flowers were blooming in his heart.
This idiot actually sought Ye Yuan to compete on alchemy skills. Wasn't this asking for it?
If it was before Ye Yuan came to look for him, he really would not have much confidence in Ye Yuan. But now, he very much wanted to see the fascinating expression on Yang Hao's face in a while.
Although Huyan Yong had completely no clue about alchemy, he knew that the Crystal Formation Pill was definitely not an ordinary Tier 2 medicinal pill. Even high-rank Alchemy Masters would probably find it very challenging to refine.
Yang Hao was actually competing in alchemy skills with Ye Yuan who could refine out Crystal Formation Pills. If this wasn't asking for a beating, then what was?
Not knowing why, when he saw Ye Yuan's smile, Yang Hao's felt a bout of frustration in his heart.
"What? Junior Apprentice Brother Ye don't dare to compete? If you don't dare to contend, then forget it. However, after you enter the sect, you just have to walk around me, that's all."
"En? This idea is pretty good. How about this, whichever one of us wins, the other party will have to walk around the other person if they see him. How's that?"
"Hur hur, ignorance is truly bliss! Fine, I promise you!" Yang Hao said brimming with self-confidence.
"Okay, you say it then. Compete in what?" Ye Yuan inquired.
"Controlling fire is the foundation for alchemists and also an important criterion to measure alchemy skills. Like this, let us each retrieve an ingredient on the spot and compete in controlling fire. I wonder what Junior Apprentice Brother Ye's opinion is?"
As he said, Yang Hao pointed to the Illuminating Fire on the inner wall of the house.
Illuminating Fire was a type of earth fire. Because its luminosity was better, it was generally used to illuminate.
Alchemy Apprentices did not have a high requirement towards controlling fire because of insufficient soul strength. But when one reached the Alchemy Master realm, their alchemy skills would finally be considered to have crossed the rudimentary threshold. The requirement towards controlling fire was also very high.
Yang Hao saw that Ye Yuan was only a low-rank Alchemy Master, so he determined that he had just come into contact with controlling fire not long and should be very weak in terms of controlling fire.
This was intentionally making things difficult for Ye Yuan.
What he did not know was that not only did Ye Yuan know how to play with fire, there was even the Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame inside his body . . .
Chapter 186 - Fire Burning B.u.t.t.o.c.k.s
"Looks like Senior Apprentice Brother Yang is very confident in your control over fire! Okay, then compete in fire control. Please go ahead, Senior Apprentice Brother Yang," Ye Yuan said while smiling.
Smile then, smile then! In a while, I'll see if you can keep smiling! Yang Hao sneered coldly in his heart.
Comparing overall abilities in alchemy skill, perhaps he, Yang Hao, was not considered very impressive among the sect's core disciples.
But when competing in controlling fire, he could rank in the top twenty!
This country bumpkin definitely did not understand just what kind of concept was top twenty.
The geniuses of the Tranquil Cloud Sect were not something comparable to a mere outer sect. Like him, Yang Hao was merely just some dreg in the entire sect with his excellent talent!
Those fellows in the Pill Hall were more monstrous one after the other!
To be able to rank in the top twenty in the aspect of controlling fire, Yang Hao could already be amply proud!
"Humph! Watch closely. Today, I'll let you, a frog in a well, witness what is called controlling fire!"
As he spoke, Yang Hao went in front of the Illuminating Fire and beckoned with two fingers.
The flame directly broke away from the lantern and followed Yang Hao's finger as it danced in the air, looking extremely dazzling.
Yang Hao formed seals with both hands and the Il
luminating Fire transformed into a thin and long fire dragon that coiled around him, looking very obedient.
This move was finished extremely beautifully, giving people a sort of feeling that it was very pleasing to the eyes.
Suddenly, Yang Hao beckoned with his fingertip. The fire dragon flew out from the boundary around his body and rushed straight at Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan simply watched Yang Hao's performance with a faint smile and did not have the slightest intention of making a move.
A trace of a cold smile flashed across the corner of Yang Hao's mouth. He was already facing an imminent crisis, and Ye Yuan was still there pretending to be calm.
Although the might of the Illuminating Fire was not strong and would not cause Ye Yuan any substantial injuries, it was more than enough to leave him dusty and dirty in appearance.
It was as if Yang Hao had already seen the look of Ye Yuan being burned to a charcoal head.
But just as the fire dragon was several inches away from Ye Yuan's face, it suddenly started bouncing around.
Yang Hao's face changed. This fire dragon seemed to be trying to break free from his shackling and became unsettled. Ever since his fire controlling technique had reached Large Success, he had yet to encounter this sort of situation.
The Illuminating Fire was just the most common earth fire. It did not pose any difficulty to Yang Hao at all. How could a situation where it was breaking free of control appear?
Could it be Ye Yuan causing mischief? But there weren't even the slightest bit of essence energy undulations from his body!
Seeing ghosts! 1
Yang Hao obviously would not leave the Illuminating Fire unchecked to break free from his control. He gritted his teeth and increased the essence energy to urge it. But it was like the Illuminating Fire was being stubborn with him as it refused to move even half a step forward no matter what.
Yang Hao increased his strength again. Who knew that the seemingly clever move turned out to be a foolish one. With a whoosh, the Illuminating Fire actually scurried straight back towards Yang Hao!
Yang Hao jumped in fright at this scene and hurriedly urged with his fire controlling seals again.
The Illuminating Fire was only a very low-end flame after all. It was restricted by Yang Hao in a short while.
Following that, he beckoned with his fingertip, and the Illuminating Fire went back inside the lantern.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Ye Yuan applauded and praised, "Senior Apprentice Brother Yang's fire controlling technique is truly transcendent! I, Junior Apprentice Brother, admire it greatly! It was a really close shave just now, nearly burning me. Luckily, Senior Apprentice Brother Yang showed mercy! However . . . caution is needed when playing with fire. Don't burn yourself, Senior Apprentice Brother Yang!"
Yang Hao's face was deathly sullen. All those present were experts. It was clear at a glance whether he showed mercy just now or not.
Ye Yuan saying these words were truly enormous sarcasm.
Except, he also could not figure out why the Illuminating Fire would suddenly lose control.
Ye Yuan clearly did not do anything at all!
Not just him who did not understand, Yao Qian by the side also did not understand. But the gaze he gave when looking at Ye Yuan became somewhat different.
Yang Hao wanted to use the Illuminating Fire to burn Ye Yuan. But Ye Yuan had the Tier 4 essence fire, Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame, inside his body. When the Illuminating Fire approached Ye Yuan, it instinctively sensed extreme danger. How could it possibly burn Ye Yuan?
Humans were unable to feel such a level of coercion from ranks, but the flame itself was very s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e.
"Humph! Your turn! I want to see just what kind of tricks can you play!" Yang Hao said in a deep voice.
"Haha, Senior Apprentice Brother Yang is already very amazing. What sort of tricks can I even play? I'll just copy it blindly," Ye Yuan said smilingly.
In the while that Yang Hao was stunned, Ye Yuan already reached out to beckon in thin air. The Illuminating Fire flew into Ye Yuan's hand obediently.
Seeing this scene, the pupils of the other four people in the house constricted.
Just based on this move, Ye Yuan was way too brilliant compared to Yang Hao!
Previously, Yang Hao walked under the lantern to execute the fire controlling seals before calling out the Illuminating Fire. But Ye Yuan was still several dozen meters away from the lantern, only to see that he casually called with one hand and the Illuminating Fire flew over itself.
The level was clear at a glance!
Without any gaudy fire controlling seals, Ye Yuan just supported with his palm and the Illuminating Fire automatically transformed into a fire dragon, circling around Ye Yuan.
The appearance was exactly the same as Yang Hao just now!
Yang Hao was so enraged that he ground his teeth in rage. This was simply a provocation!
Ye Yuan looked at Yang Hao and suddenly gave a peculiar smile. He lifted his hand and pointed a finger at Yang Hao.
Yang Hao jumped in fright when he saw the situation and hurried formed seals to deal with it.
After forming finish the seals, he discovered that he was tricked by Ye Yuan again. That fire dragon was still circling leisurely around Ye Yuan!
"Hur hur, don't be so nervous, Senior Apprentice Brother Yang. Just playing a prank," Ye Yuan said with a smile.
Yang Hao's face no longer had that initial haughtiness and calmness. He could not wait to rush up and give Ye Yuan a bite!
But right then, Ye Yuan spoke again.
"This time, it's for real. Be careful, Senior Apprentice Brother Yang!"
Ye Yuan pointed again. But . . . still just a finger!
Yang Hao smiled coldly and said, "Repeating old tricks don't have much of a meaning, right?"
"Dumbass! Quickly look behind you!" Yao Qian who had been mum all along finally made a sound.
Yang Hao was dazed. Turning around to look, he saw that his b.u.t.t.o.c.k.s caught fire and a burned smell spread out.
Yang Hao jumped in fright and hurriedly formed seals to extinguish the flames on his b.u.t.t. However, his attire was already burned through by the Illuminating Fire as two lumps of white flesh were revealed.
Swooshing bum down to the ground, Yang Hao's face was red to the tips of his ears.
"Hur hur, Senior Apprentice Brother Yang is really mindful of your face but disregarded your b.u.t.t.o.c.k.s. Why are you so careless? If some senior apprentice sisters saw it when you head out, I'm afraid that Senior Apprentice Brother Yang's name will probably spread back to the sect very soon, right?" Ye Yuan chortled as he said.
Huyan Yong was originally someone who was serious in speech and manner, but even he could not hold back his laughter right now.
"Don't be smug, Ye Yuan! Let's compete again if you have the capabilities!" Yang Hao's face was red and his ears scarlet. He was clearly hopping mad from embarrassment.
"Sigh, Senior Apprentice Brother Yang can't take a loss! What are we competing on this time? Competing in Martial Path? You, an Eighth Level Spirit Condensation Realm, competing with me, a Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm. Even if you win, it will also be the big bullying the small if it spreads out, right?" Ye Yuan pretended to sigh emotionally.
"Enough! A loss means a loss! Do you feel that this isn't disgracing enough? Quickly go and change your clothes!" Yao Qian's face fell as he said to Yang Hao in mild irritation.
Being bellowed at by Yao Qian, Yang Hao was just like a defeated rooster and went to a quiet spot to change his clothing.
After Yang Hao left, Yao Qian looked at Ye Yuan with narrowed eyes and said, "Truly heroes come from youngsters! To think that such a talented figure actually appeared in my Tranquil Cloud Sect's outer sect!" Encountering something that is weird or makes a chill go down your spine. Maybe like seeing a doppelganger, seeing a dead friend look alike, money appearing in your pocket, etc.
Chapter 187 - Barely Passable
This monstrosity of Ye Yuan far exceeded his imagination!
It looked like this title of 'number one in a millennium' was not without reason.
A 15-year-old Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm. This sort of cultivation speed was also not slow even when placed in the sect. Even more terrifying was that this Ye Yuan's alchemy skills should be very strong.
To obtain such accomplishments in the martial path and alchemy path at the same time, but only 15 years of age, his future accomplishments were limitless!
Except, this Ye Yuan offended the Su Family. This time, he would likely be wiped out by the Su Family.
It was somewhat of a pity.
"Lord Yao Qian flatters me. What number one in a millennium, Ye Yuan is not worthy. But compared to some mediocre talents, I'm still that little bit stronger," Ye Yuan said indifferently.
This old fellow clearly did not have any good intentions as well. Ye Yuan obviously did not need to be courteous.
"What a sharp tongue. But young people should learn how to restrain themselves a little. Otherwise, you will suffer."
"If other people respect me a foot, I will return them 10 feet. If other people reach out for a yard after taking an inch, I'll leave no room to advance! This is my life principle!"
"Haha, oh Yunhe. This little baby is really quite interesting." Yao Qian ignored Ye Yuan and turned to say to Jiang Yunhe.
Jiang Yunhe felt quite awkward and chuckled drily, saying, "Ye Yuan's personality is like this. Don't lower yourself to his level, Lord Yao Qian."
"Why would I bother arguing with a little child?" Yao Qian said coolly.
Right then, a voice came from outside the door. "Lord Dean, Long Tang requests for an audience."
"Come on in," Jiang Yunhe instructed.
Long Tang's arrival also eased up some of the awkwardness. But when he saw Ye Yuan, his eyes instantly turned sharp.
