Unrivaled Medicine God c1-2204, page 457
Could it be that he actually fell for Yue Mengli?
In his previous life, Ye Yuan put his whole body and mind into alchemy. And this life, his greatest goal was to take revenge on Ji Canglan. So he consciously or unconsciously refrained himself from thinking in this area.
Originally, Ye Yuan thought that he only had feelings of gratitude towards Yue Mengli. But looking at it now, it seemed like it was not simply so.
Except, what the conclusion was, Ye Yuan did not have a clear answer in his heart too.
"Good that you're afraid! If you can really treat Li-er, the Yue Family naturally will not treat you unfairly. Except, if you're using this as a chip to come and obtain Li-er, that's impossible! However, I'll say the nasty things first, if you can't treat Li-er, I'll make you regret ever being born in this world!" Yue Jianqiu said with a cold snort.
Ye Yuan collected his thoughts. Drinking a mouthful of Waning Moon Falling Petals Wine, he said coolly, "Li-er's illness, you don't have to worry! But organizing this Bright Moon Competition is really incomparably foolish! After Li-er's illness is cured, her cultivation will advance at a tremendous pace! Before long, no one in your Yue Family will be her match anymore."
Yue Jianqiu said in a deep voice, "Humph! Sounds nicer than it is! Li-er's days are numbered, you also disappeared these two years. Furthermore, your cultivation realm is too low and can't refine the Soul Separating Pill at all. Even if you really came, what's the use? Li-er is born with the Moonlight Heavenly Eye Physique. The strength of her ocular powers is one of a kind in the Yue Family! If she really leaves like this, it will be a tremendous loss to the Yue Family. What do you know?"
Hearing these words, Ye Yuan was actually inexplicably frustrated in his heart.
Yue Jianqiu's meaning was actually treating Yue Mengli as a tool to carry on the family line. Because descendants of the innate Moonlight Heavenly Eye Physique, there was a 30% chance to be of the innate Moonlight Heavenly Eye Physique too!
Even if they were not, the descendants' ocular powers were also much stronger compared to ordinary people.
It was precisely because of this that Yue Jianqiu would be willing to give up a spot to enter the Vastsun Bright Moon Realm, and also had to find a proud son-in-law for himself!
Chapter 934 - Disappoint You!
"Leave Li-er's illness to me. The Yue Family cancel the Bright Moon Competition this time!" Ye Yuan suddenly spoke up. It was just that his gaze became somewhat icy.
But Yue Jianqiu said, "Impossible! Currently, geniuses have gathered in Bright Moon City. There are many forces that even the Yue Family can't afford to provoke as well. Wanting to cancel the Bright Moon Competition is already not possible! Still that sentence, if you can win in the Bright Moon Competition, this Emperor will marry Li-er to you without another word!"
Yue Jianqiu's words had some intention of giving tit for tat.
But this could not be blamed on him either. Now, the Bright Moon Competition was already an arrow fitted to the strong; not up to the Yue Family to not release anymore.
Ye Yuan's expression turned cold, and he said in a solemn voice, "The geniuses you're talking about, could it be Zhou Yan they all? Forget it, it's up to you to organize the Bright Moon Competition too. Whoever wins, just come and challenge me!"
These words were said domineeringly!
Ye Yuan's meaning was that those so-called geniuses were not worthy of exchanging blows with him at all.
Yue Jianqiu turned stiff, and he said in a deep voice, "Simply presumptuous! What right do you have to get a different treatment from the rest? Furthermore, you, a Heaven Enlightenment Realm, what qualifications do you have to accept other people's challenge?"
"Yue Jianqiu, I think you shouldn't be mistaken! Right now, I'm not discussing with you, I'm only informing you! Doing so is already giving your Yue Family face. If not looking on account of Li-er's face, I'd have directly brought her away. Heh, don't look at me with this sort of expression in your eyes. If I want to bring Li-er away, you can't stop it at all! As for the reason, I think you know." Ye Yuan said coolly.
Yue Jianqiu looked at Ye Yuan coldly, revealing a cold light.
This brat, facing him, this head of the Yue Family, he dared to be so unbridled too!
But Ye Yuan being so confident actually made him somewhat cautious in taking action.
He was naturally aware of what Ye Yuan was referring to. If the Soul Martial Divine King wanted to bring Li-er away, no one could stop it at all!
Clearly, this was also where Ye Yuan's confidence lied.
Ye Yuan had an arrogant appearance, totally not placing Yue Jianqiu in his sights at all. This could not help thronging people with thoughts.
To the Yue Family and the Zhou Family, they speculated Ye Yuan's identity before, and they felt that the greatest possibility was that Ye Yuan was Zhong Zizhen's illegitimate son.
Otherwise, how could a puny little Heaven Enlightenment Realm possibly make one of the Ten Great Divine Kings take action?
Furthermore, Ye Yuan was exceptional in both the soul and martial arts. His alchemy strength was unparalleled; simply carved from the same mold.
Thinking up to here, how would Yue Jianqiu still have doubts?
"Fine, this emperor promises you! You're so wildly arrogant, looking down on the Divine Realm's outstanding heroes. I want to take a look at how much capability you have!" Yue Jianqiu said coldly.
Being kneaded by a junior, Yue Jianqiu felt as awful as having eaten a fly. Except, he ultimately had no choice but to agree to Ye Yuan's demand.
...
The Yue Family was Bright Moon City's de facto controller. The total area of the manor and courtyard was extremely vast.
Currently, beside a small lake with exquisite scenery, several figures were currently admiring the landscape and chatting.
"Oh Li-er, Yan-er has grown up together with you since young and has eyes only for you. The Zhou Family and Yue Family have been connected through marriage for generations. Why do you refuse to get together with Yan-er?"
A middle-aged woman did her best to persuade the young girl beside her earnestly. This young girl was none other than precisely Yue Mengli.
"Auntie, don't make things difficult for Li-er anymore! The Bright Moon Competition this time, I'll defeat all the geniuses and use my own strength to prove that I'm the one who's most worthy of Li-er! Furthermore, as long as I win, I can help the Yue Family keep the spot to enter the Vastsun Bright Moon Realm!"
Zhou Yan was present too. Except, he already cut in halfway without waiting for Yue Mengli to reply.
He was severely wounded by the Soul Martial Divine King the last time he went to the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land. The Zhou Family expended a huge price before obtaining the method to let Zhou Yan regain consciousness from the Soul Martial Divine King there.
But Zhou Yan's talent was indeed very heaven-defying. Experiencing the serious injury this time, not only did his strength not regress, it advanced instead, and actually directly broke through the shackles of Dao Profound Realm, stepping into the ranks of Emperor Realm in one stroke!
So this time, that was why he was full of confidence, wanting to trample all the geniuses underfoot.
The middle-aged woman's name was called Zhou Qianru, Zhou Jia's cousin. She married Yue Jianqiu's brother, Yue Jianke. Therefore, Zhou Yan called her auntie.
The Zhou Yan after breaking through to Dao Profound Realm, his edge seemed to be much more restrained, and he was also much more level-headed. It was just that he was still determined to get Yue Mengli.
"Li-er, in the past, you turned your nose up at Yan-er, that was because he was young. This time, he grew wiser with each setback and is already much more m.a.t.u.r.e. Marrying him, the Zhou and Yue two families will be even more closely related. Wouldn't it be better?" Zhou Qianru continued to persuade.
Zhou Yan said, "Auntie, don't say anymore! Since Li-er said that she wants to marry the strongest genius, then … I'll become that strongest one!"
The two people sang in chorus. Yue Mengli actually did not even have room to interject.
Actually, the initiator of the Bright Moon Competition this time was still Yue Mengli.
Back then, Yue Jianqiu was too relentless, insisting on her marrying Zhou Yan. But Yue Mengli refused to no matter what and said to Yue Jianqiu: If I, Yue Mengli, have to marry, I got to marry the strongest young genius too!"
Therefore, that was why there was the Bright Moon Competition this time.
In a twinkle, seven to eight years passed. The agony of Yue Mengli's divine soul tearing already became more and more out of hand. The frequency of outburst also became greater and greater.
Even with the Azure Spirit Heart Fusing Fluid, she could not hold on much longer either.
However, Ye Yuan did not show up all along.
But Yue Mengli did not lose faith in Ye Yuan. She knew that Ye Yuan would definitely come and save her!
"Aunt, the Bright Moon Competition is already a foregone conclusion. What's the point of saying these? If Zhou Yan can take first place and come back, I'll keep my promise," Yue Mengli said coolly.
Her complexion was very pale, her brows furrowed slightly, looking very haggard. But even so, it still could not block her charm.
The current Yue Mengli instead had a kind of sickly beauty, making people feel even more protective towards, and more willing to care for.
"Huhu, this … I'm afraid it won't be easy! With Ye Yuan around, first place definitely won't fall into another's hands!" Behind Yue Mengli, a youth in azure clothing opened his mouth.
This azure-robed youth was Ye Qing.
Seven to eight years had passed, Ye Qing's aura was way more powerful compared to before. At present, he was already faintly going to break through to Tier 9!
Erupting with deep acc.u.mulations was likely talking about Ye Qing's situation.
But Zhou Yan did not get angry. He said with a faint smile, "Ye Yuan? Even if he's any more powerful, he has to arrive at Bright Moon City before the Bright Moon Competition too. It's said that he has already disappeared for many years."
"Yeah! A Lower Realms bumpkin, only ascended for several years' time, how much can his strength increase? Perhaps, he hasn't even reached Heaven Enlightenment Realm now," Zhou Qianru said disdainfully.
Yue Mengli's brows furrowed and she said with disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e, "Aunt, Li-er's illness already can't endure much longer. Could it be that you wish to see Li-er leave this world here and now?"
Zhou Qianru's heart thumped, not expecting to overshoot the mark, and hurriedly said with a smile, "Li-er, isn't there a misunderstanding? Auntie naturally hopes that you recover soon. But just now was just considering the facts as they are. That Ye Yuan merely ascended for around six to seven years, even if his talent is anymore monstrous, his progress also has to have a limit, right?"
"Is that so? This aunty, I'm afraid that this Ye will have to disappoint you!"
At this time, a young profile slowly walked out. That tone had indescribable mockery.
Chapter 935 - Desiring to Go up to the Ninth Heaven to Seize Heavenly Lightning
Seeing that figure which made her long very much for, Yue Mengli was actually somewhat dazed for some time.
Nobody knew just how Yue Mengli lived through these past few years.
The agony of the divine soul tearing was what the average person could not imagine.
Whenever Yue Mengli was so overwhelmed with pain that she wished she was dead, that tall and straight figure would always appear in her mind.
It was Ye Yuan who gave her the courage to carry on living!
A beautiful shadow moved slightly and already wrapped around Ye Yuan's waist.
"I finally waited until you came!"
Very calm, not that much fluctuation in emotion, and also would not complain tearfully like ordinary girls.
Yue Mengli had always been a fairy maiden who was otherworldly.
It was just that this simple and short one sentence already embodied all of it.
Longing, suffering, hesitation, perseverance, holding on until the clouds parted to see the bright moon, was all inside this one sentence.
Ye Yuan came, that was enough!
Everything else was not important.
Being hugged by a beautiful woman, Ye Yuan actually give rise to a very satisfying feeling. He could not help secretly heaving a sigh and also reached out to embrace Yue Mengli.
"Mm, I came, everything will be over," Ye Yuan said softly.
"Cough, cough …" Behind Ye Yuan, several coughs suddenly transmitted over.
Yue Mengli was startled before noticing that behind Ye Yuan was actually Father.
Yue Jianqiu looked at Ye Yuan at the back, his gaze rather hostile.
But Ye Yuan paid no attention to his gaze and continued to hug Yue Mengli. He did not have the intention of letting go.
Zhou Yan's face turned green, his gaze looking at Ye Yuan was filled with resentment.
He grew up together with Yue Mengli since young and could be said to be in a favorable position. Yet, Yue Mengli this bright pearl was grasped in Ye Yuan's hand at present.
When had Yue Mengli ever been like this towards him?
Zhou Yan's jealousy and hatred towards Ye Yuan in his heart was already unable to use words to describe.
But the moment he thought of the Soul Martial Divine King, he could not help shuddering from the bottom of his heart.
"You … You're Ye Yuan? You're actually already peak Ninth Level Heaven Enlightenment. How is this possible?"
At this time, Zhou Qianru's astonished voice shattered the somewhat peculiar atmosphere of the scene.
She still predicted prior to this that Ye Yuan at most would not surpass Heaven Enlightenment Realm. But when Ye Yuan stood in front of her, he was actually peak Heaven Enlightenment Realm already; only a single step away to be able to step into Phaseless Realm!
This kind of cultivation speed was truly a little too horrifying as well, right?
At this time, Zhou Yan also discovered Ye Yuan's cultivation realm already, his pupils involuntarily constricting.
The Zhou Family guessed that Ye Yuan was very likely the Soul Martial Divine King's illegitimate son. Could it be that … this conjecture was true?
He knew that when Ye Yuan had just ascended, he only had a strength that just entered the Divine Traversing Realm.
This had merely been six to seven years time, Ye Yuan actually broke through three major cultivation realms in succession! This kind of cultivation speed was too terrifying!
Recollecting at that time, when he met Ye Yuan for the first time, Ye Yuan was still just an ant-like existence in front of him.
But when a mere seven to eight years had passed, Ye Yuan actually showed a trend of catching up from behind. This gave Zhou Yan an immense sense of pressure.
A Lower Realms aboriginal, if he did not have the aid of a Divine Realm's major power, how could he possibly cultivate so quickly?
"Humph! So what if peak Heaven Enlightenment Realm? With your strength, it's impossible to win in the Bright Moon Competition! Ye Yuan, if you're a man, fight it out to see who's the winner in the Bright Moon Competition!" Zhou Yan issued a letter of challenge to Ye Yuan in front of everyone.
The current Zhou Yan was like a rooster in heat. Him issuing a challenge to Ye Yuan was already the final grace that he could maintain.
"Ye Yuan, I …"
Yue Mengli looked at Ye Yuan, rather embarrassed. This Bright Moon Competition was even fixed up by her to drag the time. She did not expect that it would entrap Ye Yuan in the end.
Ye Yuan waved his hand and said smilingly, "Li-er, what you said is right. Your man is naturally the strongest! Zhou Yan, don't blame me for not giving you the chance. Want to challenge me, you have to beat everybody in the Bright Moon Competition! Otherwise, you won't even have the opportunity to challenge me!"
Zhou Yan froze and said with a snicker, "Ye Yuan, you're also too conceited, right? The Divine Realm's geniuses are innumerable. Even if your cultivation speed is amazing, you don't even rank in the top 100. What right do you have to let me challenge you?"
Ye Yuan shrugged his shoulders and could not even be bothered to explain at all.
"Yan-er, I already promised Ye Yuan, the victor of tomorrow's Bright Moon Competition will fight with Ye Yuan for the qualifications to enter the Vastsun Bright Moon Realm!" Yue Jianqiu spoke up.
Zhou Yan turned rigid, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"Uncle Yue, you … you aren't joking, right? Ye Yuan, what qualifications does he have to obtain such a treatment?"
This decision of Yue Jianqiu's was simply too preposterous!
Ye Yuan was just a Heaven Enlightenment Realm martial artist. Letting him face off with the victor of tomorrow's Bright Moon Competition, wasn't it making a joke?
Yue Jianqiu's face fell slightly, and he said, "You know that Ye Yuan has this qualification!"
Hearing these words, Zhou Yan's heart could not help tightening. Could it be that that speculation was actually true?!
"Alright, enough crap, all disperse! Li-er's illness brooks no delay. I have to start taking Li-er's pulse," Ye Yuan said coolly.
"You? Really going to treat Li-er's illness? According to what I know, wanting to treat Li-er illness requires refining the Soul Separating Pill, right? That medicinal pill is what even Alchemy Emperor powerhouses can't refine. You're merely Heaven Enlightenment Realm and can refine the Soul Separating Pill?" Zhou Yan said with a look of contempt.
Ye Yuan looked at him and said with a smile that was not a smile, "This pill formula was given to Li-er by me. Only I can refine it. As for cultivation realm … what you said is right, I indeed can't refine the Soul Separating Pill right now."
Zhou Yan smiled coldly when he heard that and said, "See, I knew it! Even if it's your own pill formula, without peak Alchemy Venerable strength, don't even think about this medicinal pill at all!"
"Alchemy Venerable is it … Alright then, it's too easy for me."
Zhou Yan was just about to scoff in contempt when suddenly, his expression changed greatly.
In his previous life, Ye Yuan put his whole body and mind into alchemy. And this life, his greatest goal was to take revenge on Ji Canglan. So he consciously or unconsciously refrained himself from thinking in this area.
Originally, Ye Yuan thought that he only had feelings of gratitude towards Yue Mengli. But looking at it now, it seemed like it was not simply so.
Except, what the conclusion was, Ye Yuan did not have a clear answer in his heart too.
"Good that you're afraid! If you can really treat Li-er, the Yue Family naturally will not treat you unfairly. Except, if you're using this as a chip to come and obtain Li-er, that's impossible! However, I'll say the nasty things first, if you can't treat Li-er, I'll make you regret ever being born in this world!" Yue Jianqiu said with a cold snort.
Ye Yuan collected his thoughts. Drinking a mouthful of Waning Moon Falling Petals Wine, he said coolly, "Li-er's illness, you don't have to worry! But organizing this Bright Moon Competition is really incomparably foolish! After Li-er's illness is cured, her cultivation will advance at a tremendous pace! Before long, no one in your Yue Family will be her match anymore."
Yue Jianqiu said in a deep voice, "Humph! Sounds nicer than it is! Li-er's days are numbered, you also disappeared these two years. Furthermore, your cultivation realm is too low and can't refine the Soul Separating Pill at all. Even if you really came, what's the use? Li-er is born with the Moonlight Heavenly Eye Physique. The strength of her ocular powers is one of a kind in the Yue Family! If she really leaves like this, it will be a tremendous loss to the Yue Family. What do you know?"
Hearing these words, Ye Yuan was actually inexplicably frustrated in his heart.
Yue Jianqiu's meaning was actually treating Yue Mengli as a tool to carry on the family line. Because descendants of the innate Moonlight Heavenly Eye Physique, there was a 30% chance to be of the innate Moonlight Heavenly Eye Physique too!

Zhou Yan froze and said with a snicker, "Ye Yuan, you're also too conceited, right? The Divine Realm's geniuses are innumerable. Even if your cultivation speed is amazing, you don't even rank in the top 100. What right do you have to let me challenge you?"
Ye Yuan shrugged his shoulders and could not even be bothered to explain at all.
"Yan-er, I already promised Ye Yuan, the victor of tomorrow's Bright Moon Competition will fight with Ye Yuan for the qualifications to enter the Vastsun Bright Moon Realm!" Yue Jianqiu spoke up.
Zhou Yan turned rigid, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"Uncle Yue, you … you aren't joking, right? Ye Yuan, what qualifications does he have to obtain such a treatment?"
This decision of Yue Jianqiu's was simply too preposterous!
Ye Yuan was just a Heaven Enlightenment Realm martial artist. Letting him face off with the victor of tomorrow's Bright Moon Competition, wasn't it making a joke?
Yue Jianqiu's face fell slightly, and he said, "You know that Ye Yuan has this qualification!"
Hearing these words, Zhou Yan's heart could not help tightening. Could it be that that speculation was actually true?!
"Alright, enough crap, all disperse! Li-er's illness brooks no delay. I have to start taking Li-er's pulse," Ye Yuan said coolly.
"You? Really going to treat Li-er's illness? According to what I know, wanting to treat Li-er illness requires refining the Soul Separating Pill, right? That medicinal pill is what even Alchemy Emperor powerhouses can't refine. You're merely Heaven Enlightenment Realm and can refine the Soul Separating Pill?" Zhou Yan said with a look of contempt.
Ye Yuan looked at him and said with a smile that was not a smile, "This pill formula was given to Li-er by me. Only I can refine it. As for cultivation realm … what you said is right, I indeed can't refine the Soul Separating Pill right now."
Zhou Yan smiled coldly when he heard that and said, "See, I knew it! Even if it's your own pill formula, without peak Alchemy Venerable strength, don't even think about this medicinal pill at all!"
"Alchemy Venerable is it … Alright then, it's too easy for me."
Zhou Yan was just about to scoff in contempt when suddenly, his expression changed greatly.
