  "Hehe, my Tranquil Cloud Sect came to Wu Fang City for the sake of the Endless World's safety, but we received such a treatment! Looks like we were hallucinating that the other party is willing! Forget it! Your Cao Family's apology, I don't need it either. Grand Elder and I will leave Wu Fang City right away to avoid being an eyesore to everyone! Grand Elder, let's go!"

  As he said, Ye Yuan pulled Skymaple and was just about to leave.

  When Ren Xingchun saw this scene, he wanted to stop Ye Yuan but was stopped by Dan Chenzi.

  Dan Chenzi shot Wu Xuan a look, signaling him to make a move. Dan Chenzi then said to Ren Xingchun, "Old Man Ren, you don't add more to the discord. This boy is clearly somebody who can be persuaded by reason, but he's not a person to be cowed by force. You continue like this and the Endless Meet in two days most likely can't commence anymore."

  Hearing these words, Ren Xingchun's slowly rising fury was ultimately pressed down.

  And in this short while, Ye Yuan already left the Exquisite Jade Pavilion. Wu Xuan followed out closely behind too.

  He darted a look at Dan Chenzi and said vigilantly, "You this old punk, what devious ideas are you planning again? Your Alchemist Association stands aloof above worldly considerations. Even if the Fierce Gale World really attacked over here, they wouldn't dare to do anything to you either. Don't say that you're doing this for the sake of the Endless World too!"

  Dan Chenzi let go of Ren Xingchun and said with a faint smile, "For it is good, not for it is fine as well. Could it be that you aren't interested in this young man? In my opinion, his knowledge in alchemy likely far surpasses yours and mine!"

  Ren Xingchun gave a cold snort and said, "If now isn't extraordinary times, this old man would definitely interrogate this stinking brat with torture well! Even if his alchemy knowledge is any greater, he's merely a Sea Transformation Realm. Could he still overturn the heaven?"

  Dan Chenzi said with a smile, "You this old fellow, always being hot-tempered. You don't just look at this boy being unbelievably obstinate. If it wasn't this special period at present, he might not be so high-profile either. This boy is soft and gentle even with his rough ways that he showed us; at the same time, he isn't easy to get along with."

  Ren Xingchun snorted coldly, but then he turned to Cao Zheng and said, "What a splendid thing your Cao Family did! I don't care about you guys smashing your signboards. But if it threatens Wu Fang City, don't blame this old man for turning hostile on you!"

  Cao Zheng's expression was slightly kind of ugly as he nodded and said, "City Lord rest assured. This incident, the Cao Family will definitely deal with it well!"

  Although the Cao Family's bedrock was incomparably solid, under Ren Xingchun's rule, Cao Zheng had to tuck his tail between his legs to behave properly too.

  Infuriating Ren Xingchun, nobody would gain anything good out of it.

  In this Wu Fang City, it had already been very, very long since anyone dared to challenge Ren Xingchun's authority. Looking from this angle, Ye Yuan could already be considered Wu Fang City's number one person.

  . . . . . .

  "Ye Yuan! Please wait! Please wait!" Wu Xuan chased after Ye Yuan out as he yelled at the top of his voice.

  Ye Yuan halted his footsteps when he heard that and gave Wu Xuan and bow and said, "Today, many thanks to Master Wu Xuan for helping me out of my predicament. This kid bears it in my heart. Next time, if there's the opportunity, this kid will definitely repay generously."

  Today, if not for Wu Xuan being present, how the outcome would be was really hard to say.

  Wu Xuan laughed and said, "Huhu, you're too serious with your words. If not for coming to the Exquisite Jade Pavilion today, I'll most likely regret it for the rest of my life! Seeing you refined pills yesterday, I even gave rise to the thought of taking a disciple. Only seeing your means today did I know that I was rash. In front of you, how can I bear the word master?"

  Only when he saw Ye Yuan's performance today, did Wu Xuan know why Ye Yuan was completely uninterested in him yesterday.

  What he knew, Ye Yuan knew all. What he did not know, Ye Yuan knew too.

  What would he use to teach Ye Yuan?

  Recalling it now, yesterday was really making a really big joke.

  "Master Wu Xuan is an Alchemy Sovereign experts. Master this word is naturally deserving," Ye Yuan said with a smile.

  Actually, in front of Ye Yuan, who could be deserving of this word? It was just that Wu Xuan helped Ye Yuan. Ye Yuan would naturally show appreciation.

  Wu Xuan hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Haha, if you don't mind, just call me elder brother. Master this word is absolutely undeserving!"

  Ye Yuan was not pretentious either and nodded with a smile as he said, "Since that's the case, Ye Yuan will accept deferentially than to decline courteously. Elder Brother Wu Xuan, Grand Elder and I will return to the Tranquil Cloud Sect right away. If you have time, you can come and visit often."

  Wu Xuan hurriedly said, "Younger Brother Ye, City Lord just has this temper. You don't try to gain face back with him! Speaking of which, he made Xu Zihui fuss around you these few days. It's also considered to be very considerate already. Moreover, if it wasn't for Xu Zihui coming to find me today, I couldn't have arrived in time either, don't you agree?"

  Ye Yuan nodded his head. He was actually just putting on a show to take that old man down a notch. He obviously would not really leave.

  "Fine then. This is on account of Elder Brother's face here!" Ye Yuan hesitated for a bit and said.

  Chapter 515 - Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew

  "Haha! That's how it should be! Come, come to my place to have a chat. Elder Brother there has the highest grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew. Today, us brothers shall not return without getting drunk!"

  Wu Xuan put his arm around Ye Yuan and pulled him hard, like really becoming good friends despite a great difference in age.

  Ye Yuan had no choice and could only say goodbye to Skymaple and leave with Wu Xuan.

  As an Alchemy Sovereign expert, Wu Xuan's residence was naturally very luxurious.

  Wu Xuan brought Ye Yuan to a small courtyard, took out two jade small wine bottles, and showed them off. He said, "This Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew is of the highest grade among wine. In this city, only Fu Yunjing that old man knows how to brew it. I pestered him endlessly before getting six bottles from him. Today, if not to entertain this Younger Brother, Elder Brother, I, wouldn't bear to drink!"

  Ye Yuan said with a smile, "Elder Brother entertaining like this, wouldn't it put Ye Yuan to shame?"

  "Hey, what's there to be ashamed around? To be able to make friends with Younger Brother, I'm more than happy! Come, come, come! Quickly taste it!"

  As he said, Wu Xuan was just about to pour the wine for Ye Yuan. Ye Yuan was stupefied and said, "Uh, drinking it like this?"

  This time, it was Wu Xuan's turn to be in a daze. He asked, "Not drinking like this? How else can it be drunk?"

  Ye Yuan chuckled and said, "Old Brother secured this Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew, but you don't know it's drinking method. Isn't it a waste?"

  Wu Xuan said in surprise, "Eh? Hearing the meaning of Younger Brother's words, you've drunk this Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew before? According to what I know, in this Endless World, it seems like only Fu Yunjing that old man knows how to brew this wine! Hang on, you talk about how this wine should be drunk first."

  Ye Yuan said with a smile, "The Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew has a total of five grades: low-grade, middle-grade, high-grade, top-grade, as well as the highest level heaven-grade. According to the difference in level, the wine ware will not be entirely the same too."

  Ye Yuan brought the tiny wine bottle to his nose and sniffed before continuing, "This bottle of Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew should be a low-grade. It should be matched with wine cups made from Southern Sandalwood to be able to bring out the taste."

  "Oh? Why is this so?" Wu Xuan had a curious look as if he had discovered a n
ew continent.

  As far as he knew, Fu Yunjing that old punk indeed still had even better Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew, but had never been willing to take it out to show others, let alone say asking for it.

  After Wu Xuan drank a low-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew once at Fu Yunjing's place, he could not forget that taste anymore. Hence, he ran over daily to beg Fu Yunjing for a few bottles.

  At first, Fu Yunjing still did not agree. Later, through Wu Xuan's hard and soft tactics and his incessant pestering, he finally could not take it and Wu Xuan six bottles.

  Yet, he had never heard before that drinking this Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew actually had so many details to pay attention to.

  "The fragrance that southern sandalwood gives off when mingled together with this wine will make the flavor even stronger when it enters your mouth. Furthermore, low-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew still has some impurities. Cups constructed out of Southern Sandalwood can slightly cleanse these impurities, making the taste of the Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew even more fragrant," Ye Yuan explained.

  "There's actually such attention to detail? Cups made from Southern Sandalwood, I actually have them here. It's just that I thought all along that jade material wine cups are more suited for the Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew, and that wood material cups will spoil the taste of the Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew. Hence, I've never used it to drink. Today, hearing Younger Brother say this, I really have to give it a try."

  Wu Xuan ran into the room. Soon enough, he really brought out two wooden cups.

  Pouring the wine in, Wu Xuan moved the cup in front of his face and sniffed. His eyes involuntarily lit up, "It's really more fragrant compared to before!"

  Following that, he sipped a mouthful of wine. A look as if he was walking on clouds immediately appeared on his face, like he was really comfortable to the max.

  Wu Xuan did not speak. He just took a sip one after another in this manner and drank this cup of wine entirely in just a short while.

  Ye Yuan smiled. Likewise, he picked up his cup but downed it all at once.

  This low-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Liquid, Ye Yuan simply could not be bothered to savor the wine.

  In his previous life, what Ye Yuan drank were all heaven-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Liquid. The taste was on a completely different level from this low-grade one.

  He placed the cup on the table, and gave Ye Yuan a big thumbs up as he praised, "Using southern sandalwood cups to hold the wine, the taste and flavor improved at least 10% from before! Younger Brother, you're truly impressive!"

  Ye Yuan chuckled and said, "Elder Brother don't make fun of me. Little Brother, I, merely just happened to know it, that's all."

  But Wu Xuan said with a laugh, "As far as I know it, in this Endless Forest, only Fu Yunjing alone knows how to brew this wine. He also accidentally obtained this secret recipe in a cave somewhere when he was wandering the Endless Forest in his early years. That secret formula also stated that the Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew is divided into five grades. It's just that the secret recipe only had the brewing method for the low-grade on it. The middle-grade's brewing method was incomplete. I see that Younger Brother seems to be very familiar with this Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew. Could it be that . . . you've drunk this wine before in the past?"

  Ye Yuan knew that Wu Xuan was trying to understand his background by beating around the bush, so he said with a smile, "Not only have I drank it before, I even know how to brew it. If Elder Brother is interested, I can pass this low-grade brewing method to Elder Brother."

  Wu Xuan nearly jumped up when he heard that and said excitedly, "Is Younger Brother for real?"

  Ye Yuan said with a smile, "Look at what you're saying. Would I scam Elder Brother?"

  "That's great! Haha! Fu Yunjing that old fellow is always showing off his Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew in front of me. Wait until I brew this Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew. See if he still dares to show off in front of me!"

  Wu Xuan was like a kid in a fit of pique right now, wishing to run in front of Fu Yunjing to posture a round right away.

  Seems like Wu Xuan had most likely been nursing grievances in front of that Fu Yunjing for a very long time!

  Thinking about it, that was right. This low-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew was naturally not considered much in Ye Yuan's eyes. But in the Endless World, it was a top-grade fine wine.

  Fu Yunjing possessing such a secret recipe and showing it off a bit in front of his companions was also human nature.

  Furthermore, it seemed like that Fu Yunjing and Wu Xuan were both people who loved alcohol greatly. Otherwise, Wu Xuan could not possibly have southern sandalwood wine cups here.

  "This low-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew's brewing method seems to have some flaws. The taste doesn't seem to be very orthodox. Elder Brother, when you use my method to brew this wine, I presume that the taste should be able to be improved tremendously," Ye Yuan said with a smile.

  . . . . . .

  While Ye Yuan and Wu Xuan, the two of them were drinking wine and having a good talk, Cao Fang currently had his nose pointed at by Cao Zheng, and the former was being scolded severely.

  "You fool! You knew perfectly well that that boy is the honored guest that the Three Sects and Ren Xingchun invited, and you actually dared to use this kind of method to provoke him! Are you going to squander away all the reputation that my Cao Family has garnered for thousands of years? If the Thousand Query Wall collapses, my Cao Family will no longer have the opportunity to rise up again! Do you understand?! How many times have I told you, don't hang out with those riffraff friends! Place your sights on Ren Dong! If you're unable to surpass him, my Cao Family will continue to be suppressed by the Ren Family!"

  Cao Zheng had a face like he had expected better from him. Clearly, he was greatly exasperated by Cao Fang.

  The swelling on Cao Fang's face had long subsided. But that five fingerprint mark still remained on his face.

  Being reproached badly by Cao Zheng at this time, how could he dare to talk back?

  Cao Zheng scolded for a long time before saying fiercely, "Tomorrow, you bring along gifts and personally go to Feng Ya Pavilion to apologize to Ye Yuan! You must get his forgiveness! Otherwise, if he throws a tantrum and doesn't take part in the Endless Meet the day after tomorrow, you'll be smacked to death by Qin Hongtao the three of them!"

  Chapter 516 - Not Allowed to Vie for Masters with Me

  At the City Lord Manor.

  A bout of wild laughter came from inside Ren Dong's pill refining room.

  "Hahaha! I finally succeeded! I finally succeeded!"

  Ren Dong looked at a transcendent-grade Tier 1 medicinal pill in his hand in a frenzied state.

  "Turns out that Lesser Phaseless Art can really refine transcendent-grade medicinal pills! Looks like I, this high-rank Quasi-Alchemy King, am utterly unworthy of the title! Even the Lesser Phaseless Art can refine transcendent-grade medicinal pills. It can be seen that along the way, I've missed out too many things! Ye Yuan, you this master, I'm acknowledging you for sure!" Ren Dong s.u.c.k.e.d in a deep breath and muttered under his breath.

  Bang!

  Ren Dong opened the pill refining room's door and ran out like a gust of wind.

  "Little Dong, where are you doing?" A kind sounding voice was heard, stopping Ren Dong.

  "Aunt, I'm going out to do something important. I'll come and pay respects to Aunt after I return! I'm going first!" Ren Dong's footsteps did not even stop and directly dashed out far away.

  "This child!" The woman gave a melancholic sigh.

  If Ye Yuan were here, he would surely be happy. This woman was exactly the mother that he yearned for day and night, Ren Hongling!

  "Sigh. I also don't know how Yuan-er is like as of late. He's no longer who he was now. He should be living very well, right?" Ren Hongling murmured to herself.

  Ren Hongling was grounded by Ren Xingchun and was only permitted to move about withi
n the tall walls.

  There were only two people on her mind. One was the Ye Hang who was imprisoned by Ren Xingchun. The other was naturally her son, Ye Yuan.

  In her home, the person Ren Hongling liked the most was Ren Dong this nephew. Because every time she saw Ren Dong, it was as if seeing Ye Yuan.

  She came to find Ren Dong today because she wanted to make him go and beg her father, Ren Xingchun, again, to let him spare Ye Hang.

  Who knew that Ren Dong was in a rush and directly ran off.

  Ren Hongling was helpless and could only go back.

  . . . . . .

  Cao Fang followed the servants into Feng Ya Pavilion one step at a time. When he had just entered the backyard, he heard a hearty laughter.

  "Hahaha! With this recipe, the expression on Fu Yunjing that old punk's face will definitely be very interesting to look at! He keeps the Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew recipe like a treasure, showing off in front of me every day. This time, I'll see how he still show off!" Wu Xuan said with a big laugh.

  Hearing Ye Yuan say that he had the recipe, Wu Xuan directly drank and finished the six bottles of low-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew with Ye Yuan yesterday.

  He came to find Ye Yuan today to get the recipe.

  "Elder Brother, this low-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew isn't considered much. It only needs half a month to finish fermenting. But it won't do for brewing the middle-grade one. For the middle-grade quality, it needs half a year. Anyhow, you gather the ingredients according to the recipes that I gave you. After half a year, forget about that Fu Yunjing, even Lord Chairman will probably come to request from you as well," Ye Yuan said with a smile.

  Upon hearing this middle-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew, Wu Xuan's saliva almost drooled down.

  According to what Ye Yuan said, the taste of the middle-grade Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew surpassed the low-grade one by ten times!

  The low-grade was already so delicious. What will the taste of that middle-grade be like?

  Thinking about it made people long for it endlessly!
