Unrivaled Medicine God c1-2204

Qian-er was stunned and did not expect that Ye Yuan would suddenly pose such a question. Hesitating for a bit, she still unveiled her own face-veil.
"I'm called Zhao Qian. Now, does it live up to the true sense of the term?" Zhao Qian said with a slight smile.
Seeing Zhao Qian's beauty that transcended the secular, Ye Yuan's eyes involuntarily lit up as he praised, "Miss Qian-er has such stunning looks. Wouldn't doing business yield twice the results with half the effort? But why do you cover your face with a veil?"
One had to acknowledge that Zhao Qian was absolutely that sort of beauty that was hard to come by. In Ye Yuan's view, it was at least somewhat on par with Xiao Ruyan.
But Zhao Qian's face turned cold, and she put the face-veil back on and said with a cold snort, "Knew that you stinking men are all like this! Humph! I, Zhao Qian, do things based on my own ability. How can I parade my looks!"
Finished talking, Zhao Qian turned right around and left.
Ye Yuan looked at Zhao Qian's departing back view and could not help being slightly absent-minded as he said, "Zhao Qian huh? I wonder what relationship she has with Zhao Xingchen. This forehead looks rather similar!"
...
At the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion, inside a hidden chamber, Zuo Xin gave Ye Yuan a bow and said, "A genius alchemist like Master Ye, this Zuo should have come to pay respects long ago. But there are too many matters to attend to, and I keep being too busy to get away. A sin, a sin."
Ye Yuan said with a smile, "Chairman Zuo is too kind. Your Heaven's Destiny Trading Company has Alchemy Saint He holding down the fort. How could you think much of me, this junior?"
Zuo Xin hurriedly said, "Dare not, dare not. He Shuming offended Master Ye. That was all his own idea. This person is very narrow-minded and envious of those better and more able than him. It's just that this Zuo's status is lowly. I urged bitterly many times, but he would not stop. Sigh! Fortunately, he brought trouble onto himself and was already called back by the Heaven's Destiny Trading Company's Crimson Afterglow branch. Only then did this Zuo able to find this opportunity to come and offer an apology to Master Ye on his behalf."
When Ye Yuan heard this, he said in surprise, "He Shuming was transferred away?"
Zuo Xin nodded and said, "Yes! Our Heaven's Destiny Trading Company regards young genius alchemists very highly. But He Shuming he beat down Master Ye by capitalizing on his status. After the branch knew this incident, they were greatly enraged. Not only did they call him back, they even fined him 10 years salary."
Ye Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly. He didn't expect that He Shuming actually came to such an end.
Zuo Xin's mouthful of nonsense, how could he not tell?
It was just that people already brought out the sincerity of their apology. Ye Yuan could not very well expose it. Looks pretty, but useless Eastern winds refer to Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang had everything prepared and lacked only wind blowing from the east. When the eastern winds blew, it burned down all of Cao Cao's sh.i.p.s.
Chapter 768 - Acting City Lord
This Zuo Xin was sly and cunning, pushing all of the blame onto He Shuming, stripping himself clean.
But Ye Yuan reckoned that the matter of He Shuming getting punished presumably should be true.
He had the Meteor Trading Company supporting from behind. This kind of thing, he just had to inquire about it a little, and he would know whether it was genuine or a sham.
Looks like the Heaven's Destiny Trading Company was planning on reconciling with him.
But business was akin to a battlefield. Ye Yuan would not give the other party an opportunity that could be exploited to their advantage because the other party yielded.
Even if Ye Yuan was willing, it may be assumed that Zhao Qian definitely would not be willing too.
"Stop beating around the bush. Talk about your intentions for coming," Ye Yuan said coolly.
Zuo Xin was not embarrassed at all, fishing out a token and handed it over to Ye Yuan, saying, "Master Ye, this is my Heaven's Destiny Trading Company's gold-level identity token. People in possession of this type of token …"
"People who possess this type of token can enjoy a 40% discount at all Heaven's Destiny Trading Company branches. Moreover, it's equal to an 8-star elder rank …" Ye Yuan interrupted Zuo Xin's words immediately, saying out this gold token's functions in detail.
Zuo Xin said in surprise, "Master Ye is actually so familiar with my Heaven's Destiny Trading Company's matters! In the entire Crimson Afterglow Holy Land, there's only one person possessing this gold-level identity token, that is the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land's Lord! Didn't expect that Master Ye actually knows so much in detail about this token."
Truthfully speaking, the headquarters actually sending people to deliver this gold-level identity token made Zuo Xin extremely surprised.
One had to know that people possessing this gold token were basically all holy land heavyweight-class figures. The lowest, lowest, were also Dao Profound Realm powerhouses!
Now, headquarters actually gave a gold token to a Divine Traversing Realm boy. This kind of thing, it was still his first time hearing about it!
Ye Yuan said coolly, "Did you guys deconstruct the medicinal pills newly rolled out by the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion or not?"
Zuo Xin's heart pounded when he heard that. He did not think that Ye Yuan would actually have such a query. He actually did not know how to word it for a moment.
It was still Zuo Xin's first time meeting Ye Yuan. Even though he knew that Ye Yuan's alchemy path strength was very formidable, he did not think that he was actually so astute!
He only took out a gold token, and Ye Yuan actually guessed the matter of deconstructing the medicinal pills. How fast a reaction did this require?!
Seeing Zuo Xin faltering and unable to speak, Ye Yuan continued, "Looks like your headquarters' alchemists failed the deconstruction. Otherwise, you wouldn't take this out. Uh … This gold token is indeed very sincere. But do you plan on using one gold token to dissolve my collaboration with the Meteor Trading Company?"
At this time, Zuo Xin came back to his senses too. Shaking his head, he said, "This Zuo doesn't have this intention. This gold token doesn't have just those functions Master Ye said. In it still has my Ancient Opulence City Heaven's Destiny Trading Company's 30% performance shares. And we only have one request, which is that we hope Master Ye also supplies these kind of medicinal pills to our Heaven's Destiny Trading Company. Let us and the Meteor Trading Company sell these few types of pills at the same time."
A gold token adding on 30% performance shares just to exchange for the selling rights of a few types of medicinal pills. This deal could be said to a certain profit and no losses.
To Ye Yuan, it was 100% sincere.
Ye Yuan was deeply aware of this. But after he thought about it for a bit, he returned the gold token to Zuo Xin and said, "Apologies, I can't agree to you."
Zuo Xin could not help losing heart as he said, "This … Could it be that our Heaven's Destiny Trading Company's sincerity is still not sufficient?"
Ye Yuan said smilingly, "Sincerity … is enough. But I, Ye Yuan, am not you merchants. I have my principles. Since I've already agreed to collaborate with the Meteor Trading Company, no matter how high your price is, it's no use too."
...
Zuo Xin left, but the gold token was left behind.
This gold token was a death-sworn mission issued by upstairs, making him be sure to give to Ye Yuan.
If Ye Yuan did not accept, he could forget about being this chairman already.
Finally, Ye Yuan still accepted the gold token.
He did not mind taking a bit of advantage. As long as it did not go against his principles, it was fine.
Ye Yuan knew that the resources he required for cultivation in the future would be too much. Moreover, the price would become increasingly expensive. Right now, this Fragrant Medicine Pavilion could not support his cultivation for too long.
/>
Wait until his cultivation realm got higher and higher, the earth essence crystals earned by the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion would fail to meet the expenditure.
Using this gold token could have a 40% discount when buying things. Only a moron would refuse.
After Zuo Xin left, Zhao Qian asked Ye Yuan what he came here for. But Ye Yuan smiled and did not speak, leaving immediately, angering Zhao Qian until she stomped her foot at the back.
Two days later, Jun Tianyu exited seclusion. Not only did he recover to his peak condition, he even achieved a breakthrough in cultivation realm, reaching Third Level Heaven Enlightenment in one go!
Of course, this was Ye Yuan getting Zhao Qian to bring over some Tier 7 medicinal pills. That was how Jun Tianyu could recover his strength in such a short time and obtain a breakthrough.
These medicinal pills were all very valuable things. It was very hard for Jun Tianyu to get them too. But Ye Yuan just casually asked and got it.
Right now, Zhao Qian obeyed Ye Yuan's every word. Some Tier 7 medicinal pills was also not a big deal to the Meteor Trading Company.
But through this matter, Ye Yuan suspected even more that this Zhao Qian's identity was not simple.
Because of the medicinal pills he wanted, it was likely not that easy to get even for 6-star managers.
"Congratulations to Brother Jun for breaking through!" Ye Yuan said with a smile.
Previously, Jun Tianyu had been protecting Ye Yuan's safety along the way like a bodyguard, and he nearly even lost his life. This made Ye Yuan rather apologetic.
No matter what, this favor was owed. Therefore, seeing Jun Tianyu having a breakthrough, Ye Yuan was very happy too.
"Haha, isn't this still all thanks to those medicinal pills you got!" Jun Tianyu was clearly very happy too, saying with a big laugh.
These few years, he neglected cultivation. His cultivation realm progression had always been very slow.
Now, encountering Ye Yuan, not only did he cure his wife, he even obtained breakthroughs in both concepts and cultivation realm. How could he not be happy?
"Tch, the medicinal pills were procured by me. What are you thanking him for?" Zhao Qian said unhappily.
Ever since that day, even though Zhao Qian would not defy Ye Yuan's words, she took a liking to bicker with Ye Yuan. She had never given Ye Yuan any good attitude before.
Jun Tianyu was very magnanimous and said with a chuckle, "Huhu, Miss Qian-er naturally have to be thanked!"
"That's more like it!" Zhao Qian extended her elegant hand towards Ye Yuan and said, "The medicinal pills you promised me?"
Ye Yuan smiled slightly. Reaching his hand out and fl.i.c.k.i.n.g it, several hundred medicinal bottles appeared in front of Zhao Qian.
On every medicinal bottle indicated the name of the medicinal pill. They were shockingly all Tier 6 medicinal pills!
"You do a check," Ye Yuan said.
A glimmer of shock flickered across Zhao Qian's eyes, but she said verbally, "No need!"
As she said this, she put away these medicinal pills immediately.
Right at this time, a sonorous voice sounded out outside the door, coming over from far away, "Ye Yuan, where are you?! Quickly come out for me!"
Ye Yuan's brows furrowed and he said, "Pei Wenqiang? What's he here for?"
Zhao Qian suddenly opened her mouth and said, "Forgot to tell you guys. City Lord Ying won't be back for the time being. The higher-ups have already appointed a new acting city lord. His name is Pei Wenqiang."
Chapter 769 - Crimson Afterglow Valley
Zhao Qian's words made Ye Yuan and Jun Tianyu both stunned.
Without waiting for them to react to it, Pei Wenqiang already barged inside hastily.
"Ye Yuan, this City Lord came to grace you with his grand presence, and you actually dare to not go out and welcome!" Pei Wenqiang said gloatingly.
Ye Yuan said with a black face, "It's clearly you who forcefully barged inside yourself. Is there still reason?"
Jun Tianyu said coolly, "Ye Yuan, want to sweep him out or not?"
Pei Wenqiang's expression choked up and suddenly discovered that Jun Tianyu actually broke through to Third Level Heaven Enlightenment already, and already caught up to him on cultivation realm.
But in terms of concepts comprehension, he could not catch up to Jun Tianyu even by whipping his horse. Jun Tianyu wanting to sweep him out of the door was probably just a simple matter too.
"Hey, I'm warning you guys! I'm the Ancient Opulence City's City Lord for now! If you all dare to touch me, bear the consequences yourself!" This time, it was Pei Wenqiang's turn to pull a black face.
Ye Yuan waved his hand and said impatiently, "Alright, stop flaunting your City Lord's power and prestige! You be the City Lord, I'll run my Fragrant Medicine Pavilion. Let's stay in our own lanes and mind our own businesses! Speak, what did you come to find me for?"
Pei Wenqiang was pissed the moment he heard that. "Heh, what high-sounding sentiments! Your shop is opened in my territory! To actually dare have such an attitude towards me! Do you believe that I'll make you close down shop for good or not?!"
Talking until here, Pei Wenqiang seemed to be even more pleased with himself as he thought and said, "It's decided. Later, I'll make people come to impound your Fragrant Medicine Pavilion. See if you still dare to be so insolent towards this City Lord!"
Ye Yuan laughed and said, "Is that so? Recently, there just happens to be another person finding me. Because I couldn't bear to part with the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion, so I didn't agree. Since you seized the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion, it helped me make this decision."
Pei Wenqiang laughed loudly and said, "Heh, found a path to retreat so quickly huh? I wonder who your next player is? You also know my big brother's status in the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land. Whichever organization you go to, I'll make them close down! I want to see who dares to take you in!"
Ye Yuan fished out a token very helplessly and played with it a little in his hand.
Pei Wenqiang had yet to have any reaction, but when Zhao Qian saw that token, she could not help being struck dumb with amazement as she said, "The Heaven's Destiny Trading Company's gold token! You … Why would you have this kind of thing?"
Ye Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said, "I didn't want it. People insisted on forcefully pushing it to me."
It was indeed Zuo Xin who forcefully pushed it to Ye Yuan. In order to make Ye Yuan accept this token, Zuo Xin almost knelt down for him.
Pei Wenqiang's expression changed drastically too as he said, "This … This is the Heaven's Destiny Trading Company's gold token! Isn't it said that in the entire Crimson Afterglow Holy Land, only the Holy Lord alone has this thing?"
Ye Yuan gave Pei Wenqiang a glance rather surprisedly and said, "Looks like I underestimated you. Didn't think that you actually even know about the gold token."
Pei Wenqiang's expression was ugly as he said, "I … I heard my big brother mention it before when I went to the Heaven's Destiny Trading Company's Crimson Afterglow branch to buy things."
Ye Yuan was enlightened as he said, "Oh, turns out it's like that. Oh, right, didn't you want to seal up my Fragrant Medicine Pavilion? Quickly seal. What are you still waiting for?"
"H-Haha, just now I was just cracking a joke, cracking a joke, Younger Brother Ye, you don't take it seriously. Ah! Only cared about making jokes, I almost forgot that coming today was for for proper business." Pei Wenqiang suddenly thought of something and hurriedly changed the topic
What kind of joke was this? This gold token, only a holy lord would have one in the entire holy land. Then what possessing it signified was already understood without being told.
Sealing up the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion?
The Heaven's Destiny Trading Company was a Rank One Holy Land; much more powerful than the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land, this sort of Rank Nine Holy Land. 1
If Ye Yuan really went to the Heaven's Destiny Trading Company, he could use the status this toke
n represented to screw him to death effortlessly.
Zhao Qian was absent-minded by the sides. It was also uncertain what she was thinking about.
But Ye Yuan was somewhat curious about Pei Wenqiang's intent for coming and asked, "What are you finding me for?"
Pei Wenqiang said, "It's like this. The Crimson Afterglow Holy Land will be organizing a Quasi-Holy Son selection competition a month later. Each faction subordinate to the holy land has three quotas. About this, when I received this news, I thought of you right away and plan on giving you a spot. How is it? Sincere enough, right?"
"Quasi-Holy Son selection competition? Not interested!" Ye Yuan rolled his eyes and refused immediately.
Other martial artists longed to enter the holy land very much. But Ye Yuan did not need it.
Becoming a so-called Quasi-Holy Son was nothing more than getting the holy land's high regard, then obtaining a certain amount of cultivation resources, such as cultivation methods, such as medicinal pills.
Yet, these things, the present Ye Yuan could resolve all of it himself. Likewise, he could also settle it himself in the future.
Because in the Divine Realm, the ones who lacked money the least were alchemists.
As long as Ye Yuan was willing, he could earn truckloads of earth essence crystals.
The establishment of the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion also proved this point. Just a short two to three month's time, Ye Yuan's current wealth already exceeded 10 million earth essence crystals. This to an ascender who had just ascended for merely several months was simply something unimaginable.
Yet, Ye Yuan accomplished it!
Carrying the title of 'junior with the greatest hope of achieving Alchemy God', if Ye Yuan could not even earn this bit of cultivation resources, that would also be too trashy.
"Heh, you still don't know, right? The rewards for the Quasi-Holy Son selection competition this time are exceptionally generous. Not only will the first place obtain a high-grade profound artifact, but he can also even get the chance to enter the Crimson Afterglow Valley! The Crimson Afterglow Valley! My elder brother, as one of the Seven Holy Sons, didn't even get the opportunity to enter the Crimson Afterglow Valley before!" Pei Wenqiang was actually quite agitated as he said.
