"What are you still in a daze for?! Is it possible that you want to receive the family's punishment?" Yue Jianfeng's words were even colder as if Ye Yuan was the one who was his kin.
Interrogating under torture? What kind of joke was this?!
To be able to see through the recurring illness in his body, this sort of existence would not be an existence who was that easy to provoke no matter what.
At least, ordinary alchemy emperor powerhouse, if they did not carry out pulse-reading, they could not tell that his body had an underlying illness at all!
Such a figure, once he really offended him to the core, there would not be anymore leeway to salvage it.
Hearing family punishment, these two words, Yue Yunfeng involuntarily shuddered. Gritting his teeth, he said to Ye Yuan, "L-Little Brother, this matter … this matter … was all Yunfeng's fault! I hope that you will forgive me!"
Yue Yunfeng was very depressed. Today was not only him losing face completely, but the Yue Family's face was also utterly thrown away!
Just what medicine did Uncle Feng eat wrongly? A brat talking nonsense here, he actually believed it to be true!
Ye Yuan nonchalantly darted him a glance and said, "I said before, you have got to be prepared to be punished. Mm, this is merely just the beginning!"
Done talking, he turned to Yue Jianfeng again and said, "The words I said before, I'd never take them back myself! Today, Yue Jianqiu must come!"
Seeing Ye Yuan so serious, Yue Jianfeng was displeased in his heart too. But he also knew that Ye Yuan could not be offended and could not help being put on a spot.
"Little Brother, the Bright Moon Competition is at hand, Family Head has endless matters to busy with. He … He seriously can't make the time!" Yue Jianfeng said with difficulty.
Ye Yuan looked at him and suddenly smiled and said, "Go find him, he'll come! Just say that the person saving his daughter's life came."
Yue Jianfeng's expression changed, and he cried out in shock, "You … You are that … young man called Ye Yuan!"
He originally wanted to call him a 'brat.' But when the words reached his mouth, it changed to 'young man.'
These few years, Ye Yuan this name reverberated like thunder in the Yue Family!
Chapter 932 - Eight Extremities War Chariot
"Could this brat has lost his mind? What kind of person is Lord Yue Jianqiu? How can he possibly lower his dignity to come and meet a junior?"
"Even if this brat really has some background, it's also impossible for Lord Yue Jianqiu to come! If he came, the Yue Family would lose all of its face today."
"Heh heh, it's really getting more and more lively! I want to take a look at just how the Yue Family cleans up the mess."
Ye Yuan stood on the streets calmly, giving no thought to everyone's widespread comments at all.
However, the people watching the show were getting more and more. Refusing to budge like this, it would be harder and harder for the Yue Family to wind up the matter.
Ye Yuan burned half of Bright Moon City's skies with a torch. If Yue Jianqiu deigned himself and bent the knee to come and meet in person, Bright Moon City would really not be able to lift its head in front of the outstanding heroes under the heavens anymore.
By the side, Yue Jianfeng's world was turned upside down in his heart. He totally did not expect that this young man before his eyes was actually that Ye Yuan who made the Zhou Family dusty and dirty in the face!
Two years ago, Zhou Yan secretly went to find trouble with the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land. In the end, he was put into a coma by someone and returned to the Zhou Family.
This matter had once stirred up massive waves in Vastsun and Brightmoon, these two cities.
After Zhou Yan was brought back, the Zhou Family's elders raised a clamor at one point, saying that they wanted to exterminate the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land.
Then later, this incident was left unsettled just like that.
The whys and wherefores of it, outsiders did not know, but the Yue Family was perfectly clear! Zhou Jia discovered that Zhou Yan was actually injured by the Soul Martial Divine King!
Ten Great Divine Kings, that was absolutely an existence which the Zhou Family could not afford to provoke.
And a puny little Lower Realms' aboriginal youth was actually linked in many ways with the Soul Martial Divine King. How could the Zhou Family dare to act rashly without careful consideration?
The Yue Family knew about Ye Yuan's existence very early on. But regarding Ye Yuan being able to treat Yue Mengli's illness, they did not believe at all.
All the way until Zhou Yan returned in defeat, after which the incident gave them hope.
But so many years had passed, Ye Yuan did not show up all along. This made the Yue Family involuntarily anxious about a favor, and worried lest they should lose it.
Although Ye Qing had the Azure Spirit Heart Fusing Fluid, these two years, Yue Mengli's body still deteriorated steadily.
Yue Jianfeng also did not think that Ye Yuan actually turned up at this time!
Except, he did not expect that both parties actually met in such a way.
Just as the people were discussing animatedly, a series of horse neighing sounds came from the sky.
Everyone looked over and discovered that a war chariot was currently flying over from a distance.
This war chariot's momentum was extremely shocking. Its entire body emitted a bright bronze color, giving people an intense sense of oppression.
Judging from the imposing momentum, this war chariot was clearly a transcendent-grade holy artifact!
"It's the Eight Extremities War Chariot! The Yue Family actually dispatched the Eight Extremities War Chariot! This Eight Extremities War Chariot is Yue Jianqiu's ride! Furthermore, it's the symbol of status. Only when the most honored guests come to visit will Yue Jianqiu personally drive the chariot out to welcome! Could it be that there's some big shot currently on the way?"
The appearance of the Eight Extremities War Chariot immediately caused an uproar in the crowd.
This war chariot was a transcendent-grade holy artifact. Its combat strength was shocking. But more importantly, it was the Yue Family's courteous reception towards the most distinguished guests.
Even for Divine King powerhouses, the Yue Family might not dispatch this war chariot to welcome too.
At present, right during the period of the Bright Moon Competition, quite a number of Divine King powerhouses would come and attend the ceremony. Sending out the Eight Extremities War Chariot at this time was very clearly in order to receive some important person.
Ye Yuan looked at the Eight Extremities War Chariot from a distance, a hint of a smile flashing by the corners of his mouth.
This Eight Extremities War Chariot, he was not foreign to it. Back then, when he came to Bright Moon City, Yue Jianqiu personally rode precisely the Eight Extremities War Chariot out to receive him.
Times have passed, and circ.u.mstances have changed, to think that Yue Jianqiu drove the chariot to come and receive him once more now.
Of course, other people would not think that the Eight Extremities War Chariot was here to receive him.
Using the Eight Extremities War Chariot to come and welcome a Heaven Enlightenment Realm boy, how was this possible?
"Deserving of being the head of a family, indeed have some boldness when doing things!" Ye Yuan said with a smile that was not a smile.
By the side, Si Yin's eyes flickered, and she said softly, "Young Master Ye, you don't think that the Eight Extremities War Chariot is here to receive you, right?"
Ye Yuan said with a smile, "Otherwise, what do you think?"
The Eight Extremities War Chariot's speed was extremely fast. In a blink of an eye, it arrived above this street's sky. Everyone looked left and right, wanting to find that big shot.
But they could not find it at all!
On the chariot, a middle-aged man in fine-clothing with a handsome face like carved jade had his clothes f
luttering, the air of an expert out-and-out.
"Master Ye, Jianqiu has waited bitterly for many years! You finally came to Bright Moon City! This one has prepared some weak wine. Can Master Ye come up and have a chat?"
A deep voice sounded out. The middle-aged man was actually inviting a person called Master Ye up.
The people below looked here and there, all searching for that 'Master Ye.' However, how was anyone able to be called Master Ye in existence?
Even though Ye Yuan raised a hue to make Yue Jianqiu come, they completely did not believe that Yue Jianqiu would personally drive the Eight Extremities War Chariot here to welcome Ye Yuan.
Yet, Yue Jianfeng and Yue Yunfeng, the uncle and nephew pair, were both incomparably astounded at this time!
They never would have thought that Family Head actually gave Ye Yuan such a highly courteous reception! Even when Vastsun City's Zhou Family's Family Head came to visit, it was absolutely impossible for Yue Jianqiu to mobilize the Eight Extremities War Chariot too!
But facing Ye Yuan, he actually used it!
Si Yin similarly looked at Ye Yuan with incredible astonishment. She did not think that Yue Jianqiu was really here to receive Ye Yuan.
It was only to see Ye Yuan slowly got up, and flew over toward the Eight Extremities War Chariot with a leap.
Seeing this scene, everyone was all stunned.
"This brat, does he really think that he's something? Even if Family Head Yue really agreed to come and meet him, it's also impossible to drive the Eight Extremities War Chariot, right?"
"What a joke! A Heaven Enlightenment Realm brat also dares to accept the name of master? Family Head Yue coming out personally is merely a coincidence. He really took it seriously!"
"Haha! This boy is simply a clown! Family Head Yue is currently receiving an honored guest, he actually ran up to make a spectacle of himself!"
For a moment, the mocking voices rose one after another.
Although Ye Yuan clamored to make Yue Jianqiu come all the way, they totally did not believe that Yue Jianqiu would personally ride the Eight Extremities War Chariot here to receive Ye Yuan.
The Eight Extremities War Chariot had once received many important personages before. But these big shots, there had never been one who was lower than Divine King Realm before!
Who did Ye Yuan think he was?
Yet, the scene of Ye Yuan being annihilated by the Eight Extremities War Chariot did not occur.
At this time, Yue Jianqiu actually got down the chariot and went to greet Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan looked at Yue Jianqiu and said coolly, "This facade of Family Head Yue's is done a little over the top!"
Yue Jianqiu's gaze was profound, currently sizing up Ye Yuan, rather surprised in his heart.
Ye Yuan was very young, but he did not have the least bit of young man's impulsiveness on him. On the contrary, when Ye Yuan was facing him, he actually had the bearing of an expert!
Yue Jianqiu's sovereign disposition was acc.u.mulated for months and years on end. Yet, when Ye Yuan was standing opposite him, his aura was actually not weak in the slightest!
This scene made him feel very discordant.
Yue Jianqiu said smilingly, "Master Ye's alchemy strength is unparalleled. However solemnly I welcome you is not too much! This place isn't a venue to speak. Master Ye, please board the chariot for a chat."
Ye Yuan slowly nodded his head. Lifting his leg, he directly entered inside the Eight Extremities War Chariot.
But Yue Jianqiu did not enter inside right away. He nonchalantly threw down an instruction. "Feng-er, you nearly caused big trouble today. Go to the Disciplinary Hall yourself to receive punishment!"
Chapter 933 - Inexplicably Frustrated
On the Eight Extremities War Chariot, the atmosphere was rather odd.
After entering the war chariot, Yue Jianqiu's behavior was completely different from the zealousness from before; cold until it made people somewhat chilly.
As for Ye Yuan, he poured himself a cup of wine and drank it all by himself casually, without the slightest feeling of aloofness.
"Bright Moon City's specialty product, Waning Moon Falling Petals Wine. Mm … Not bad, not bad! It's a shame that this wine is only middle-grade. Furthermore, its age is somewhat lacking. Family Head Yue is so stingy!" Ye Yuan shook his head and said with a sigh.
Waning Moon Falling Petals Wine was a top-grade fine wine on the same level as the Immortal Remembrance Jade Brew. Only by using Bright Moon City's Soaring Moon Immortal Flower could it be distilled.
However, Yue Jianqiu clearly would not take the immortal grade Waning Moon Falling Petals Wine used to entertain distinguished guests to come and entertain Ye Yuan.
"Ye Yuan, you really gave such a big gift! Upon arriving at Bright Moon City, you threw it into pandemonium! And you still want this Yue to personally come out and receive you!" Although Yue Jianqiu's words were calm, it faintly contained killing intent.
But Ye Yuan did not care at all. Looking at him, he said indifferently, "Bright Moon City's hospitality, this Ye has also had a taste of it! When can this snobbish shortcoming be fixed? You arriving, I already gave you face and cooperated with you to act out a play. Otherwise, making me board this Eight Extremities War Chariot isn't such an easy thing!"
Yue Jianqiu's eyes narrowed slightly and revealed a glimmer of cold light. Clearly, his tolerance had reached the limits.
Ye Yuan's words were too arrogant!
The Eight Extremities War Chariot was not what anybody could get on. Ye Yuan, a junior, being able to get on the Eight Extremities War Chariot was already an incomparably glorious thing.
This guy actually still dared to create difficulties?!
Yue Jianqiu putting up such a grand line-up earlier, the goal was in order to raise Ye Yuan's status, making him become mysterious in the assessment of the public.
This way, him, Yue Jianqiu's, personally coming out to receive would naturally not appear to lower his status.
Before departing, he even deliberately announced Yue Yunfeng's punishment in front of the common people, indicating that today's incident was just Yue Yunfeng's individual fault, and had nothing to do with the Yue Family.
This blame, Yue Yunfeng shouldered it alone!
Yue Jianqiu resolved the Yue Family's awkwardness with a lift of his hand. He was indeed a mighty ruler with a bold vision.
It was just that his disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e towards Ye Yuan went without saying.
Therefore, after boarding the Eight Extremities War Chariot, he naturally would not show Ye Yuan any good attitude.
"Humph! Age is not old, but your tone isn't small! Could it be that boarding my Eight Extremities War Chariot brought shame to your status? Don't forget, you're just a Lower Realms bumpkin!" Yue Jianqiu said with a cold snort.
"Just getting on a lousy war chariot, what's the big deal. Other people care, but I, Ye Yuan, don't care!" Ye Yuan said coolly.
Speaking in terms of Ye Yuan's peak Alchemy Emperor status, him boarding the Eight Extremities War Chariot was giving the Yue Family face.
It was just that circ.u.mstances have changed with the passage of time, Yue Jianqiu did not know that the one sitting opposite him was formerly the alchemy genius who had the Divine Realm at his beck and call.
Hearing Ye Yuan's words, Yue Jianqiu could not help being speechless. This brat was too arrogant. He completely did not place him, this Rank One Holy Land's leader, in his eyes.
Those who did not know would even think that Ye Yuan was some formidable Divine King powerhouse.
"Enough nonsense! Li-er's illness, you're really confident about it? Quan Xingzi has come and helped Li-er to diagnose before. Even he was at a loss on what to do as well!" Yue Jianqiu said with a grim look.
Ye Yuan said coolly, "Quan Xingzi that old man is complacent with his own laurels, not worth mentioning. If he was able to cure it, that would be strange. But speaking of which, this Bright Moon Competition, what's the meaning of it? How can your d
aughter's lifetime happiness be determined with such a careless method?"
Ye Yuan had just entered the city but heard of the matter of the Bright Moon Competition too.
Numerous young talents gathering in Bright Moon City was actually in order to vie for Yue Mengli!
The first place of the Bright Moon Competition would marry Yue Mengli. As a dowry, Bright Moon City would open up a spot and let the future son-in-law enter the Vastsun Bright Moon Realm!
Yue Mengli was indeed an unparalleled beauty. It was just that the news of her days being numbered had long spread already.
Those young geniuses coming here was probably not for Yue Mengli's sake at all, but for that chance to enter the Vastsun Bright Moon Realm!
What meaning did such a martial competition to find a spouse have as well?
Yue Jianqiu shot him a fierce glare and said, "It isn't your turn to come and worry about the Yue Family's affairs! Don't say that I don't give you a chance, if you're sincere towards Li-er, then defeat all of the young talented men during the Bright Moon Competition!"
When Ye Yuan heard this, he involuntarily turned stuff, and he actually became immersed in his thoughts.
Seeing this scene, Yue Jianqiu sneered coldly in his heart.
This brat wanted to score outside of his league, Now, upon hearing that he had to deal with the outstanding young geniuses under the heavens, he immediately shriveled up.
Li-er's heart was entirely tied to Ye Yuan. How could he, as her father, not tell? It was just that he felt that Li-er had entrusted to the wrong person now!
Yet, Ye Yuan's current thoughts were completely poles apart from what Yue Jianqiu had on his mind.
The reason why he was in a daze was that he did not think Yue Jianqiu actually thought that he had designs on Li-er.
But regarding Yue Mengli, Ye Yuan indeed had a feeling which he could not put into words.
This sort of feeling was completely different from when he was facing other girls.
Ye Yuan involuntarily recalled the matter of Yue Mengli sneaking a kiss on him back then. Recalling it now, he actually felt his heart palpitate with excitement.
