"I never dreamed that I actually still had a chance to step into the Stellar Hall in this lifetime! Ye Yuan, you showed this old man the grace of rebirth!" Jian Hongxiao looked at Ye Yuan and said with a multitude of feelings.
He deduced his own fate and just faintly felt that change would depend on Ye Yuan. But he did not think that he could return to the Stellar Hall anew for real.
Furthermore, it was extremely quick!
The Six Vein Stellar Pill, he knew that Ye Yuan should be able to refine it. It was just that he did not think that Ye Yuan directly gave him a vast spirit divine pill!
When he saw the medicinal pill, his entire person was dazed.
After eating the medicinal pill, his divine soul was practically about to float out.
It was just that at that time not only did his strength improve further, he actually even had a deeper level of comprehension towards the Profound Spirit Chaos Formula, touching the threshold of Empyrean Realm!
Everyone said give a plum in return for a peach. But now, the repayment that Ye Yuan gave him simply made him unable to bear it.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Hongxiao is doing it again, aren't you? Is there still a need to be so courteous between you and me?"
"Haha, this old man … this old man can't help himself! Oh, right, the Ancient God Battlefield still has a dozen over years before it's opening. Those children of destiny will be gathering in Extreme Luck Great Imperial Capital very soon. Although your destiny is strong, inside this Ancient God Battlefield, destiny is completely useless. I heard that even Dao Ancestor powerhouses had perished there before," Jian Hongxiao said.
Ye Yuan's face changed and he said in surprise, "Dao Ancestor powerhouse? Aren't they eternal and immortal?"
Jian Hongxiao shook his head and said, "As for the specifics, I don't know either. How can that level of existence be what people like us can try to figure out? I only coincidentally heard Fengqi mentioned it once before very long ago."
Presently, Ye Yuan had long learned that this 'Fengqi' was Jian Sutao's daughter, while Jian Hongxiao was Jian Sutao's son-in-law!
Back then, Jian Fengqi had a great tribulation in her life. Since then, she became confined to her bed and never left it again.
Jian Hongxiao loved Jian Fengqi deeply. Hence, disregarding his biological brother's obstruction, he cast the heaven-defying fate changing art.
Who could have thought that apart from it falling short of success at the last stage, it even affected the All-encompassing Armillary Sphere, s.u.c.k.i.n.g the 36 disciples on duty and his biological younger brother all into human jerky.
This matter had always been the pain in Jian Hongxiao's heart. So he was never willing to bring it up to people.
When Ye Yuan heard this, monstrous waves stirred in his heart.
Chapter 1964 - You're Playing With Me?
Based on the worldview that Dustless instilled in Ye Yuan, Dao Ancestors were eternal and undying existences. They were the apex existences of this world.
They controlled the laws in an area, representing Heavenly Dao.
Who could kill them?
But now, someone said that Dao Ancestors could die too.
This caused a tremendous impact on Ye Yuan's worldview.
Jian Fengqi was Jian Sutao's daughter. These words definitely came from him.
With Jian Sutao's position in the Jian Family, could these words merely be a groundless rumor?
Seeing Ye Yuan's expression, Jian Hongxiao said with a smile, "Huhu, back then when I heard this, my expression was exactly the same as yours. But thinking about it now, I'm afraid that Lord Sutao also heard about it as a rumor,"
Ye Yuan also smiled and said, "This Ancient God Battlefield … is rather interesting."
The two people were currently chatting away idly when someone from outside reported that Jian Hao brought Jian Yun to request an audience.
Ye Yuan and Jian Hongxiao exchanged a glance and smiled. Jian Hongxiao said smilingly, "Looks like Jian Hao is here to ask for a pill. Should we meet him or not?"
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "That will have to depend on his sincerity. I'll leave it to you. I'll avoid him for a bit first."
...
The weary-looking Jian Hao brought the blind Jian Yun and entered the hall.
Seeing Jian Hongxiao, Jian Hao hesitated for a moment, but he still gave a bow toward Jian Hongxiao. He said, "I pay respects to Elder Jian Hongxiao."
Jian Hongxiao was currently sitting solemnly as a show of respect and did not give a response.
These two people contended with each other overtly and covertly for as long as several tens of thousands of years. Back then, when Jian Hongxiao fell into distress, the one who trampled the hardest was also Jian Hao.
Now, making him treat Jian Hao with a calm state of mind, it was clearly not that easy.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #'re-playing-with-me_51305401475449516 for visiting.
Jian Hao had an awkward look, unable to leave nor stay.
He had no choice but to put aside his own pride to come and find Jian Hongxiao for the sake of his son today.
Since Jian Hongxiao obtained the Six Vein Stellar Pill, that meant that there was someone who could refine this medicinal pill.
His son's eyes could only be saved by the Six Vein Stellar Pill.
Jian Hongxiao drank his tea as if these two people were air.
Back then, he suffered Heavenly Dao backlash and was heavily injured, being on the verge of dying. Even though he consumed medicinal pills, he also laid on the bed for several decades, barely managing to preserve his life.
At that time, Jian Hao took his place and assumed the position of elder. In fact, he had once advocated for sentencing Jian Hongxiao to death.
Banishing to Extreme Light Imperial City this matter was also completed under Jian Hao's urging.
Now, this bit of reciprocal was naturally considered nothing.
Jian Hao gritted his teeth and knelt down with a thud, clenching his teeth, and he said, "Elder Hongxiao, Jian Hao knows that I was unfair to you, but I only have this one son. I don't want him to become a cripple. I beg you to help!"
Although the Jian Yun by the side was blind, he also knew that his father knelt down. His expression changed greatly as he said, "Dad, how … how can you kneel down toward him?"
"Shut up! You kneel down for me too and offer an apology to Elder Hongxiao!" Jian Hongxiao said fiercely.
Jian Yun's face flickered incessantly. Making him kneel down toward Jian Hongxiao was simply unprecedented humiliation.
He hated Jian Hongxiao, hated him for saying that he would not amount to much.
Bang!
Jian Hao flicked a finger; Jian Yun knelt down involuntarily.
In his ears, came Jian Hao's scolding, "Unfilial son, Elder Hongxiao is the only person who can save you right now! Unless you want to be a cripple for life!"
Jian Yun was startled and no longer struggled.
He did not wish to become a cripple for life.
Looking at this father and son pair, Jian Hongxiao slowly opened his mouth and said, "Alright, Jian Hao, your apology, I accept it. But … Jian Yun's eyes, I can't help you."
Jian Hao nodded his head and said, "I understand Elder Hongxiao's meaning. Jian Hao isn't asking for other things. I only beg you to speak in recommendation of me, and let me meet this expert."
He did not think that Jian Hongxiao could help him with anything to begin with. Disregarding the relationship between the two of them, how could an expert who could refine such a high quality Six Vein Stellar Pill be possibly influenced by Jian Hongxiao?
The expert behind Jian Hongxiao was at least a Seven-star Alchemy God!
Furthermore, this kind of Seven-star Alchemy God, his status absolutely would not be inferior to City Lord.
It was just that Jian Hao was very confused. Why would such an importan
t person be willing to refine pills for Jian Hongxiao?
Jian Hongxiao said, "Alright, I'll go and help you ask for his opinion."
Finished saying, Jian Hongxiao turned around and left. Before long, he came back and said, "The master agreed to see you guys. Follow me."
When the father and son two people heard it, they were wildly elated in their hearts.
What they were most afraid of was that he would not meet.
As long as he was willing to meet, everything could be discussed.
Jian Hongxiao was presently a Stellar Hall's elder. The mansion conferred onto him naturally would not be small.
With a few turns, the few people arrived in a courtyard.
Jian Hao faced inside and gave a deep bow, opened his mouth, and said, "Junior Stellar Hall's protector, Jian Hao, pays respect to Senior. I beg Senior to bestow my son a Six Vein Stellar Pill."
When Jian Hongxiao heard that, a hint of a smile flashed across his face.
This old fogey actually took Ye Yuan to be a senior.
But it made sense. Under the circ.u.mstances where one was ignorant, probably anyone would also think that the one who refined the pill for him was an Empyrean Realm big shot, right?
A ridiculously young figure slowly walked out, Jian Hao's expression instantly became extremely ugly.
"Jian Hongxiao, you … you're playing with me?" Jian Hao looked toward Jian Hongxiao and said in a great rage.
Jian Hao knew that this young man was the main culprit who caused his son to end up like this.
Now that he showed up here, wasn't this intentionally embarrassing him and making fun of him?
Who he wanted to meet was the master, not this brat!
"Dad, what's wrong?" Jian Yun could not see and asked doubtfully.
Jian Hao said furiously, "He's making fun of us father and son. This isn't some master at all, but that punk who caused you to become like this!"
"What?!" Jian Yun was enraged the moment he heard it.
Jian Hongxiao smiled and said indifferently, "He's the master that he wanted to see."
Jian Hao did not believe it at all. Waving his hand, he said coldly, "Speaking nonsense! Do you take me for a fool? At this age, forget about being a Six-star Alchemy God! Being able to learn the basics of alchemy is already pretty good! Even if he's a Six-star Alchemy God, the Six Vein Stellar Pill is also not what the likes of his age can refine!"
But Jian Hongxiao shook his head and said, "I don't have the time to crack this kind of jokes with you. My Six Vein Stellar Pill was refined by Ye Yuan. I brought him to Extreme Luck Great Imperial Capital in order to find City Lord to ask for the Six Vein Stellar Pill's pill formula. Otherwise, who else do you think can refine the Six Vein Stellar Pill in this Extreme Luck Great Imperial Capital?"
The series of words made Jian Hao calm down.
Jian Hongxiao's sudden return was very fishy to begin with.
In these 100 thousand over years, he had not returned once before.
Thinking of how Jian Yun went blind with one look again, could it be that this Ye Yuan really had an extremely exuberant destiny?
Linking these events up, it was really very likely!
But, this brat looked to be only a thousand over years old no matter how one looked at him. How could he refine the Six Vein Stellar Pill?
This kind of thing was simply too ludicrous.
Jian Hao looked at Ye Yuan with an awkward look.
"M-Master, don't blame me. It's truly … truly … rather hard to believe," Jian Hao said.
Ye Yuan said coolly, "No worries. Even though Jian Yun was a little domineering, his crime isn't to this extent. Since Elder Hongxiao isn't pressing the case with you guys, I'm indifferent. I can help you guys refine the medicinal pill, but the spirit medicines need you to prepare yourself."
Jian Hao was overjoyed when he heard it and hurriedly said, "Thank you, Master!"
Chapter 1965 - Liu Yi
The eyes of Jian Hao's family's son were cured!
This matter spread throughout Extreme Luck Great Imperial Capital very quickly like a gust of wind.
Those major family clans all went into action without delay, all wanting to inquire about who treated Jian Yun's eyes.
At Extreme Luck Great Imperial Capital, there was actually someone capable of refining the Six Vein Stellar Pill!
To the Jian Family's members, this Six Vein Stellar Pill was simply a second life.
Among the Jian Family members in this city, how many people had suffered Heavenly Dao backlash before?
Even some powerful people more or less suffered before some hidden injuries too, being unable to eliminate it once and for all up till today.
But Jian Hao's family kept a tight lid on their mouths. No one knew how on earth this master was.
Right at this time, a piece of news spread like wildfire.
It turned out that the one who refined this Six Vein Stellar Pill was none other than actually that young man who came to the great imperial capital together with Elder Jian Hongxiao!
One stone stirred up a thousand ripples.
The Jian family members in the city were all incomparably amazed. Their first reaction was that they did not believe it.
A ridiculously young youth who just entered True God Realm, how could he possibly be the master who refined the Six Vein Stellar Pill?
But thinking carefully, this credibility was really very high!
Hence, there began to have people who harbored the mentality to give it a try and went to Jian Hongxiao's elder manor.
In the end, each one returned fully loaded!
Those Jian Family members with chronic ailments actually all recovered under Ye Yuan's miracle hands!
With this, it thoroughly blew up.
The people who came to the elder's manor every day were practically trampling the doorway flat.
For some time, Jian Hongxiao became the most in-demand elder in this city.
Even Master Bu Chen also personally paid a visit to call on Master Ye's counsel.
Just like that, Ye Yuan cultivated as he treated the Jian Family members' Heavenly Dao backlash. More than ten years' time passed.
On this day, Jian Hongxiao went to find Ye Yuan.
Upon seeing Jian Hongxiao, Ye Yuan's eyes could not help lighting up as he said with a smile, "Congratulations to Brother Hongxiao. It seems like Extreme Luck Great Imperial Capital will be adding another Empyrean powerhouse not long after."
The current Jian Hongxiao had a full forehead1. The aura of Dao on his body was becoming thicker and thicker. This was clearly the sign of breaking through soon.
From a True God to an Empyrean, how many heroes had this step stumped?
Just take this Extreme Luck Great Imperial Capital for example. Just the Ninth Firmament True God powerhouses that Ye Yuan knew about were 20 to 30 people.
Those below Ninth Firmament True God were even more.
But so many True God powerhouses, those able to break through to the Empyrean Realm were only Jian Sutao and Jian Suyan two people.
This was also because the Jian Family's cultivation method was powerful. If it were other places, this chance would be even lower.
Hence, for Jian Hongxiao to be able to take this step, no idea how many True God powerhouses were incredibly envious of him.
Jian Hongxiao was all smiles as he said, "Heh, without you, this old man also couldn't possibly have taken this step in this lifetime. Empyrean … Even people who possess imperial aura also don't dare to say that they can definitely break through to the Empyrean Realm. For this old man to be able to have this today, it's being tainted by your immortal qi!"
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Hongxiao's talent is extremely good in the first place. Back then, if not for suffering Heavenly Dao backlash, with the acc.u.mulation of these 100 thousand years, you'd probably have walked to this step as well."
Jian Hongxiao shook his head and said, "There are no ifs in this world. Everything has its destiny.
That tribulation back then was Fengqi's tribulation. Similarly, this was my tribulation. If not for encountering you, it's impossible for my destiny to change."
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Finding me for something?"
"Lord Sutao made me come find you. He told me to have you go to Virtuous Wind Establishment. The Ancient God Battlefield is about to open. The other children of destiny have already arrived in succession," Jian Hongxiao said.
Ye Yuan smiled when he heard that and said, "Brother Hongxiao's father-in-law's people manipulating art is truly impressive. Disregarding using you to blackmail me into entering the Ancient God Battlefield, he even deliberately let out the news, making me treat the Jian Family's people. Tsk tsk, truly exhausting every power of his mind."
Jian Hongxiao blushed with shame. He knew that he caused trouble for Ye Yuan.
If not for him, Ye Yuan would not have provoked so much trouble, and even had to put his life on the line to enter the Ancient God Battlefield.
...
Inside the Virtuous Wind Establishment, all the people of fame arrived.
The moment Ye Yuan entered the hall, he immediately attracted a series of sidelong glances.
A young man sitting on the left-hand side sized him up for a while and laughed in spite of himself as he said, "I was wondering who had such airs, to actually be the last one to come. It turns out that it's just a rookie who just entered True God Realm."
"Hahaha!"
Everyone guffawed with laughter.
Ye Yuan discovered that ever since he broke through to the Origin Pill Realm, his cultivation speed suddenly slowed down a lot.
It was not that his talent could not keep up anymore, but it was due to the spiritual energy required being too horrifying.
In these ten years, Ye Yuan swallowed quite a number of medicinal pills but did not break through much in terms of cultivation realm. He was still at the initial-stage First Firmament Origin Pill Realm.
Of course, this was just relatively speaking of him. When ordinary people cultivated for ten years, they would probably also just barely consolidate their realm.
Ye Yuan could not be bothered with them. He found a corner and sat down.
Sweeping a glance, Ye Yuan discovered that there were a total of nine people in this hall including him.
