But today, he had no choice but to lower his head!
Saying 'admit defeat' these two words out of his mouth was as heavy as 30 thousand catties.
When Empyrean Flutterfeather heard that, he just chuckled and said, "Admitting defeat, one should have the manner of admitting defeat! It's just, whether or not we reconcile, Flutterfeather can't make the decision! If you guys want to bury the hatchet, there must be another person who nods his head!"
Chapter 2062 - Overwhelmingly Defeating the Southern Border With His Power Alone!
Standing at the right side and looking at Ye Yuan who had a smile that was not a smile, Empyrean Proudcloud felt uncomfortable as if having eaten a fly.
After twists and turns, he finally still stood in front of Ye Yuan and was forced to admit his fault!
If he had long known it would be like this, might as well directly take a step back at that time. It would also not be to an extent of like this right now.
"Grandmaster Ye, Proudcloud is here to apologize to you!" Empyrean Proudcloud said with a solemn face.
Ye Yuan pursed his mouth and said coolly, "Do you feel that I'll accept this kind of insincere apology? If you can't swallow your pride, why not Brother Proudcloud go back right away and prepare for another battle?"
Empyrean Proudcloud's face alternated between green and white. So many people were looking at them the moment, and yet he had to apologize to a True God Realm junior in public. This was simply unprecedented humiliation.
The most important thing was that he apologized and the other party was still not satisfied!
It was just that he did not see his own expression. How was that an apology? It was clearly coming to demand repayment of a debt.
Empyrean Windrider also could not endure the sight of it anymore. His brows were furrowing slightly as he said, "Proudcloud, if you still have no regard for what's important, this Empyrean can't protect you anymore after this!"
Proudcloud's face changed and he gritted his teeth and said with a bow, "Grandmaster Ye, the matter previously was all Proudcloud's fault. I hope that you raise your hand high in mercy and don't carry on fighting with the Southern Border Alliance anymore!"
This time, although they could still hear his unwillingness, his attitude was clearly much more sincere.
Ye Yuan said coolly, "Forget it. Looking at your reluctant and unwilling appearance, I won't make things difficult for you. But you wouldn't be thinking of apologizing to this Ye with a single sentence, right?"
Proudcloud gritted his teeth and said, "Of course not! This Empyrean is willing to take out 20% of his territory to give to Grandmaster Ye!"
Ye Yuan gave him a glance and said smilingly, "If you had long known what would happen today, why behave like that back then?"
Proudcloud was virtually about to explode, but right at this time, he heard Ye Yuan said faintly, "However … that was the price for ten years ago. Back then, you invaded and occupied my territory. So this Ye wants an explanation. If you took out 20% of your territory, everything can naturally be discussed. But you all bullied people by taking advantage of your power and forced this Ye and Brother Flutterfeather out of the Southern Border Alliance. At this present time, you want to dismiss us with a mere 20% of your territory?"
Proudcloud's territory was not considered big among all of the factions in the first place.
20% of the territory was sufficient to make his flesh hurt for a long time.
But hearing Ye Yuan's words, he knew that this matter was likely unable to be settled anymore.
"I wonder just what Grandmaster Ye wants before you're willing to drop matters?!" Empyrean Proudcloud closed his two eyes and got ready to risk it all.
Ye Yuan said coolly, "Back then, those factions that took part in fighting for the territory all took out 40% of their territory. While you, Empyrean Proudcloud, took out 50% of your territory. If we do like in the past, this matter will be considered dropped."
Empyrean Proudcloud's expression changed wildly and he said furiously, "You … You're bullying people too far!"
Ye Yuan's two eyes narrowed, his aura suddenly changing as he said in a cold voice, "I'm bullying people too far? Back then, the agreement was just decided and you all reneged on your words, snatching this Ye's territory! Yet, you all still felt zero shame and wanted to settle things without even a word of apology. How can there be such a bargain in this world? Later, your Southern Border Alliance sowed discord between Brother Flutterfeather and me in order to deal with this Ye. Later, we were even forced out of the Southern Border Alliance. After that, you all invaded the Myriad Treasure Tower's territory in a massive invasion and joined forces with a hundred forces to carry out a campaign against the Myriad Treasure Tower. This one event after another, this Ye hasn't said anything yet. Now, when it came out of your mouth, it came out that this Ye bullying people too far?"
Each sentence Ye Yuan said, he took a step forward, the momentum astonishing.
Someone was powerful as Empyrean Proudcloud was actually repeatedly forced back by Ye Yuan.
When Windrider and the rest saw, they could not help feeling dumbfounded in their hearts.
A mere True God Realm actually forced back an Empyrean powerhouse!
But they had to admit that Ye Yuan's grandmaster air was already formed, the imposing momentum on his body surmounting above all life.
This aura did not lord over others, but it gave people a feeling akin to that of the mighty ocean, causing them not daring to look straight at him!
Empyrean Windrider heaved a slight sigh. He knew that Proudcloud was already thoroughly suppressed by Ye Yuan and had no way of negotiating at all anymore.
"What Grandmaster Ye said is true. It's just that … your demands are a little too harsh, right?" Windrider spoke up.
Ye Yuan gave another cold laugh and said, "Brother Windrider, this is just me and Proudcloud settling some scores. My score with Brother Pilljade and the Southern Border Alliance hasn't been calculated yet! Don't put things nicely. This Ye is standing here with the bearing of a victor today. If this Ye was defeated, your methods will likely be ten times fiercer than this Ye, right?"
Empyrean Windrider's face changed, but he still said with an awkward smile, "This … How can this be possible?"
Ye Yuan said coolly, "Whether it's possible or not, you and I have a score in our hearts. So saying anymore is pointless. I'm only asking you, can my demand be satisfied or not?"
Empyrean Windrider nodded and said, "Okay, the alliance agrees on their behalf! Whatever conditions Grandmaster Ye still has, why don't you say it out together."
Ye Yuan waved his hand and said, "The rest can still be discussed. The Southern Border Alliance will compensate Heavenly Eagle ten million high-grade divine essence stones. In addition, I'll give a list later. You guys prepare the natural treasures on it and my hurdle will be considered cleared. However, don't you all think about this being settled all in one go. Only after the divine essence stones and the natural treasures on the list have fully arrived that Brother Flutterfeather will start his negotiations with you all."
Empyrean Windrider's face alternated between green and white. He felt like he was negotiating with an old monster, and not a thousand over years old young man.
This guy advanced gradually and entrenched himself at every step, not giving you any chance to play tricks at all.
He just planned to drag it out when Ye Yuan directly throttled him.
Ten million high-grade divine essence stones were nothing. It was just a single hair from nine oxen to a colossal giant like the Southern Border Alliance.
But the list that Ye Yuan pulled out would definitely far exceed ten million high-grade divine essence stones.
Furthermore, these spirit medicines must be very rare. Even if the Myriad Treasure Tower took action, they might not be able to collect them fully.
This kid was really a bloodsucker!
But Empyrean Windrider was also clear that Ye Yuan here was merely the small
end. The real largest share was still at Empyrean Flutterfeather there.
The negotiation with the Myriad Treasure Tower was the major thing that had important consequences.
Empyrean Windrider mused for a while and said, "Alright, this matter, this Empyrean will agree on behalf of the alliance."
...
After Empyrean Windrider reached the Myriad Treasure Tower, the news of the Southern Border Alliance suffering a miserable defeat and lowering their heads swept throughout the entire Southern Border like the wind.
Not only did it cause a great sensation in the alchemy world, it similarly caused a stir in the entire martial arts world.
Those who were well-informed all understood that the Southern Border Alliance did not lose to the Myriad Treasure Tower but lost to a genius alchemist called Ye Yuan.
Overwhelmingly defeating the Southern Border with his power alone!
Ye Yuan's great fame instantly spread throughout the entire Southern Border.
...
At the Luo Family residence, the Luo Family's ancestor had an appearance of bitter resentment and being let down.
He pointed at Luo Tianqi's nose and scolded him severely, "You fool! An utter fool! If you enter Grandmaster Ye's tutelage and achieve the grand completion Dao Realm in the future, you'll be a great power of this Southern Border! A god-sent opportunity like this, you actually ran in front of Grandmaster Ye to flaunt your prowess? Was your head kicked by a donkey?"
Luo Tianqi did not give in. He said, "Ancestor, how could Tianqi have known back then that he, a salted fish, could also gain a new lease on life? Moreover, our Luo Family is backed by a heavenly emperor. So why is there a need to lick his smelly feet?"
"You!" The Luo Family's ancestor was angered until he blew smoke from all seven orifices, and he roared furiously, "Scram! Get lost for me! Starting from today, you'll be confined for 500 years and not permitted to take one step out of your room!"
Chapter 2063 - Three Bullied Wives
The one being remorseful and angry was not just the Luo Family's ancestor. Those geniuses who had the chance to enter Ye Yuan's tutelage were currently all thumping their c.h.e.s.ts and stomping their feet at home, regretting endlessly.
Ye Yuan's talent was too great. Furthermore, his ability in teaching disciples was similarly powerful.
A figure able to take out more than ten kinds of pill formulas casually and propel the transformation of the Southern Border's medicinal pills, how weak could he be in the future?
Who could guarantee that several tens of thousands of years later, the Southern Border would not produce another Medicine Ancestor level character?
Even if Ye Yuan could not become a Medicine Ancestor, that was also absolutely a great grandmaster as weighty as Mount Tai.
Being able to become his disciple, that was a tremendous lucky chance.
"Old Man Pilljade is blind, but his great-grandson could see what others could not! Yun Yi, that kid, under Grandmaster Ye's tutelage, he will definitely be an earth-shaking great character in the future. Perhaps in the future, Old Man Pilljade wouldn't even be fit to carry shoes for this great-grandson of his!"
"This boy is too monstrous. I'm afraid that even the Medicine Ancestor back then also did not have this kind of terrifying strength, right?"
"He overturned the entire Southern Border Alliance with his power alone! This kind of heaven-shocking action, he can bear the title of 'Little Medicine Ancestor' already!"
...
No idea since when, this title of 'Little Medicine Ancestor' was crowned on Ye Yuan's head.
The Southern Border's various places were virtually all discussing Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan had such dazzling strength, bystanders would naturally compare with the number one Alchemy Dao person.
In the end, they discovered that even when the Medicine Ancestor was returned to his youth, it would likely be hard to reach Ye Yuan's current height too.
One had to know, Ye Yuan overpowered all of the Seven-star Alchemy Gods in the Cloudpill Summit.
Later, he even triggered the Sea of Law and entered Ancestor Realm.
At a young age, he was already a Mount Tai level figure of the alchemy world.
This kind of achievement, using accomplishment that surpassed ancient and modern times to describe was not the least bit overboard.
Being carried along by the heaven-shocking momentum, a puny little Heavenly Eagle Imperial City shockingly already became the Southern Border's eighth great peak holy land.
Although this did not get the Southern Border Alliance's acknowledgement, this was already an established fact in the hearts of numerous alchemists.
More and more alchemists poured into Heavenly Eagle Imperial City.
This small city already appeared too overcrowded.
Ye Yuan opening his mouth and exorbitantly demanding ten million high-grade divine essence stones from the Southern Border Alliance were done in order to expand the city.
Ten million high-grade divine essence stones, even at great imperial capital this level, it was also a massive resource.
For close to ten years, Ye Yuan also acc.u.mulated a sum of tremendous wealth from cooperating with the Myriad Treasure Tower. It was sufficient to use to expand the city.
The Myriad Treasure Tower and Southern Border Alliance's negotiations were currently carrying out a seesaw game.
Actually, Ye Yuan and Flutterfeather were both clear in their hearts that just based on a Myriad Treasure Tower, even if adding in the seven great reclusive ancient families, they also could not devour the Southern Border, this piece of fatty meat.
This stall ultimately still had to be branched out.
Otherwise, what would they still sit down and discuss?
With the Myriad Treasure Tower's strength presently, eliminating the Southern Border Alliance was simply as easy as counting numbers, but it was not easy to annex the territories.
But even if they could not devour it, the Myriad Treasure Tower also had to fight for the maximization of benefits.
The Myriad Treasure Tower ultimately still had to join the Southern Border Alliance. It was just that the division of profits naturally could not be like in the past anymore.
The suggestion that Ye Yuan gave Flutterfeather was not to ask for too much of their territories, but the pill formulas must be grasped in their hands.
The Southern Border Alliance would definitely covet the pill formulas. The Myriad Treasure Tower's goal was to turn the Southern Border Alliance into their sellers.
The Myriad Treasure Tower provided the medicinal pills, while the Southern Border Alliance only had the selling rights. At that time, the profits would be divided again.
This way, the Myriad Treasure Tower's position of alliance chief would be as solid as a metal bucket.
As for medicinal pills, presently with the support of the seven great reclusive ancient families, they could be refined without ceasing.
These alchemy ancient families normally stayed hidden and did not emerge. But that was just relatively speaking.
For ancient family disciples to want to cultivate, it naturally could not do without large sums of divine essence stones.
This kind of remote controlling method was these reclusive ancient families' favorite method of earning money.
Of course, this was something that Empyrean Flutterfeather needed to worry about, Ye Yuan could not be bothered to go and care.
Regardless of what the final outcome was, he just needed to sit and wait to get his share of the money.
On this day, Ye Yuan was currently in his manor cultivating when suddenly, someone came to report that Five Firmament Great Imperial Capital's Empyrean Lu Yan came to request an audience.
Ye Yuan was slightly taken aback and immediately understood something, the corners of his mouth revealing a trace of a smile.
At the City Lord Manor, Ye Yuan sat high up at the court, while the exalted Empyrean Lu Yan could only stand with his hands by the side below.
/>
Looking at the Ye Yuan who was akin to being high in the clouds, Lu Yan felt all sorts of emotions jumbled up in his heart.
How could he have thought that within the imperial cities that he governed, there would actually be a huge dragon that soared to the sky?
Although Lu Yan was not someone involved in alchemy, a grand event like the Cloudpill Summit, how could he not know about what happened with his status as an Empyrean?
When one soul-stirring news after another came over, Lu Yan finally understood just what kind of existence he offended.
Back then, when Flutterfeather gave Ye Yuan the grandmaster token, beyond his shock, Lu Yan turned his nose up at it more.
A puny little True God Realm, holding a grandmaster token, going to the Cloudpill Summit to make a spectacle of himself?
At this age, he should compete with Six-star geniuses honestly and sincerely.
Be a grandmaster?
Was he worthy?
But when one news after another came over, only then did Lu Yan know that Ye Yuan was really worthy of being one!
But later, with the Myriad Treasure Tower and Southern Border Alliance battling against one another, Lu Yan saw hope again and even expelled the Myriad Treasure Tower, drawing the Cloudpill Establishment, these major factions in.
In his view, the Myriad Treasure Tower would surely be defeated without a doubt!
No matter how strong a faction was, how could they possibly be stronger than the entire Southern Border?
The Southern Border had a boundless expanse of land. Just the great imperial capitals had thousands to tens of thousands.
How could a mere Myriad Treasure Tower be the Southern Border Alliance's match?
But he never dreamed that Ye Yuan actually fought until the Southern Border was utterly destroyed with his power alone, ultimately sending people over to beg for peace.
Ever since he sent Lu Ziyi over to capture Ye Yuan, he had never had anything go right for him before.
Toward a mere imperial city, Empyreans could be said to hold power over its life and death.
Yet, in this Heavenly Eagle, Ye Yuan gave him one surprise after another.
