Chapter 427: Chapter 427
~~
Xuan Ming rebuked ye chen with a smug look on his face. He looked at master apothecary Xuanyi's expression and saw how angry master apothecary Xuanyi was, and he felt very pleased. Back then, he was clearly more talented than master apothecary Xuanyi in alchemy. He had thought that he would be able to gain his master's special favor. He did not expect that master apothecary Xuanyi had never paid him any attention. Instead, he had spent a lot of energy on teaching Xuanyi and a few other disciples with average qualifications!
Looking at Xuanyi and the others, xuanming felt a heartfelt sense of satisfaction. Xuanyi and the others were no longer able to catch up to him! Moreover, he had also poached a few of Xuanyi's proudest disciples, and he couldn't help but feel a bit of pleasure from his revenge.
"Regarding this matter, I'm afraid martial uncle has misunderstood. I have to speak on behalf of master." Ye chen ignored Xuan Ming and continued, " it's just a few disciples. You dare to leave the sect just because you want to? That was deceiving the master and destroying the ancestor! If it was Shibo and a few of his disciples said they wanted to leave the sect, what would Shibo do? Wouldn't they be beaten to death? Therefore, these few disciples didn't leave the sect of their own accord, but were driven out by master."
"So what?" Xuan mingleng glared at ye chen angrily, his eyes narrowing dangerously. This junior was really bold. He actually dared to talk back to him three times!
the disciples that Shibo recruited are just trash that my master abandoned. To think that Shibo still values them so much. I really feel ashamed for Shibo. Ye Chen's expression was sincere as if he did not see Xuan Ming's angry expression at all.
Hearing ye Chen's words, Shen Yu and the others could not help but chuckle.
Lei Yi, Yan Cheng, and Hao Feng's faces turned red, but they did not say anything.
Xuan Ming was furious but he could not refute ye Chen's words. He glared coldly at Lei Yi, Yan Cheng, and Hao Feng.
senior brother xuanming, Lei Yi, Yan Cheng, and Hao Feng are all very talented. I didn't expel the three of them from my tutelage, but I knew that I was unable to teach them, so I let them find another master. I hope that senior brother xuanming will take care of them in the future. Master apothecary Xuanyi stopped ye chen from speaking and said gently. He was already someone who was about to die, so why would he fight for these things? after all, Lei Yi and the others had followed him for so long.
For a moment, the living room was silent.
Shen Yu and the others looked at master apothecary Xuanyi, their eyes slightly red. In their lives, besides their master, senior brother Xuanyi was the person they respected the most.
Lei Yi, Yan Cheng, and Hao Feng had treated their master like this, but their master still repaid evil with good and treated them like this? Even ye chen could not help but admire his master's magnanimity. Although he respected his master's character, ye chen had his own set of principles. If someone treated him well, he would repay them double. If someone treated him badly, he would definitely repay them double.
Ye chen coldly swept his gaze over Lei Yi, Yan Cheng, and Hao Feng.
At this moment, Lei Yi, Yan Cheng, and Hao Feng seemed to have realized their mistake. They all lowered their heads and remained silent.
Ye chen firmly believed that a dog can't change its habit. It was impossible for Lei Yi, Yan Cheng, and Hao Feng to be so grateful to master apothecary Xuanyi!
Xuan Ming suppressed his anger and glanced at ye chen. He chided, " how dare a mere disciple be so impudent! It seems that Junior Brother Xuanyi has not been strict with his discipline. If I were him, I would have beaten him to death!
"Ye chen and I are both apprentices and friends. He has the right to speak for himself." Master apothecary Xuanyi shook his head and said calmly.
"To actually call this wet-behind-the-ears brat your friend, Xuanyi, you're really regressing the more you live." Xuanming sipped his tea and mocked.
If it were not for the fact that he wanted to fulfill his master's wish, ye chen would not want to be entangled with this guy called Xuan Ming. He would have gone up and beaten him up!
"Shizun is magnanimous, but if you keep giving in, you'll be letting a villain take an inch and ask for a yard. In my opinion, there's no need to talk so much nonsense with such a villain. Grand Elder Yuan Yi's soul tempering pill was clearly stolen by him, yet he made master and all the martial uncles suffer on his behalf. Such a person can't be appeased if we don't teach him a lesson!" Ye Chen's expression was cold. He still had many things to do and did not want to waste time talking nonsense with Xuan Ming.
"Who did you say stole the soul tempering pill?" Xuan Ming was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. He stood up in shock and anger, pointing at ye chen and shouting.
"I said you stole it!" Ye chen said coldly, not backing down.
Master apothecary Xuanyi, Shen Yu, and the others did not expect ye chen to be so direct. Ye chen was still too young and impulsive. This was the city of the apothecary King. Where was the place to reason? Otherwise, they would not have been expelled from the sect back then!
The power of the city of the apothecary King was far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Even if ye chen was a daemon King, he could not afford to provoke them.
However, now that ye chen had made it clear, it was useless for them to say anything. They were all very anxious, worried that ye chen would be at a disadvantage.
"Who Do You Think You Are? when this old man became a master apothecary, you were still nowhere to be found! Xuanyi, is this the good disciple you taught? Hmph Hmph! What a sharp mouth, spitting blood and reversing black and white! Men, capture this brat who doesn't know the severity of his actions!" Xuan Ming trembled in anger and lost his mind. He pointed at ye chen and shouted angrily.
A few heavenly venerable rank experts quickly entered the reception room and surrounded ye chen and the others.
"This matter has nothing to do with ye chen. I, Xuan Yi, will take responsibility for it. Senior brother, you and I should both understand what happened back then. We can go and meet Grand Supreme elder Yuan Yi together and explain it clearly!" When master apothecary Xuanyi saw those people surrounding him, he suddenly stood up.
The atmosphere in the living room was extremely tense, and a chaotic battle was about to break out.
At this moment, an old man with white hair and a white beard walked out from the inner court and shouted angrily, " "All of you, stop! What a disgrace!" His voice echoed throughout the hall. Other than ye chen, everyone else was shaken to the point that their qi and blood churned.
Not expecting Grand Elder Yuan Yi to come, xuanming didn't dare to act rashly and immediately stood to the side respectfully. He bowed and said,"Grand Elder!" He was extremely flustered, not knowing if Grand Elder Yuan Yi had heard what he had said.
Yuan Yi's gaze swept over master apothecary Xuanyi and the others. He asked in a deep voice,"Xuanyi, Shenyu, are you not satisfied with my previous punishment?"
Xuan Yi, Shen Yu, and the other five master apothecaries lowered their heads and did not respond. They were willing to suffer Yuan Yi's anger for their innocence, but they didn't want to drag their disciples down. They would rather suffer the injustice themselves.
Xuan Yi and the others were prepared to be punished, but they didn't expect Yuan Yi to look at them and suddenly sigh, " "Back then, I might have really misunderstood you, Yingluo."
When they heard Yuan Yi's words, Xuan Yi, Shen Yu, and the other five master apothecaries raised their heads in disbelief. They were extremely puzzled. They had not expected that the usually headstrong Grand Elder Yuan Yi would actually lower his head and admit his mistake.
"You guys can go pay your respects to your master." Yuan Yi waved his hand and glared coldly at Xuan Ming.
Xuanming immediately trembled with fear and suspicion. Could it be that Grand Elder Yuan Yi had already confirmed that he was the one who had stolen the pill?
Master apothecary Xuanyi, master apothecary Shenyu, and the others were led by a few city of the apothecary King's disciples to pay their respects to their master. They only returned after about two hours while Yuan Yi remained in the reception hall, waiting for their return.
"Serve tea!" Yuan Yi sat at the head of the table and waved his hand.
A few of the city of the apothecary King's disciples quickly poured tea for master apothecary Xuanyi and the others.
"Are the five of you willing to re-enter the city of the medicine King?" Yuan Yi sat there proudly, no expression on his face.
When ye chen heard Yuan Yi's words, he realized that some of his previous actions had worked. Yuan Yi's somewhat arrogant attitude made ye chen slightly unhappy. It was as if Yuan Yi letting master and the others return to the sect was a charity. He wondered what master and the others would choose.
Ye chen was slightly nervous. If his master rejected Yuan Yi, ye chen was prepared to bring his master to the star Hall and open a pill house there. With his master and his five senior brothers, they could cultivate some capable disciples. This would be of great significance to the star Hall.
However, if his master chose to return to the city of the apothecary King, ye chen would also respect his decision.
Upon hearing Yuan Yi's words, Shen Yu and the others looked at master apothecary Xuanyi. Master apothecary Xuanyi still had some prestige among them.
Master apothecary Xuanyi shook his head. I don't know if my junior brothers and the others are willing to return to the sect. I only have twenty years left to live. If I don't have any elixirs, I won't be able to live for long. The world is like floating clouds to me. Since I've already paid my respects to master, it doesn't matter to me whether I return or not.
To master apothecary Xuanyi, returning to the sect meant a lot of trouble. Right now, he just wanted to find a quiet place to refine pills.
since senior brother Xuanyi has made this decision, we will stay with senior brother Xuanyi and will not return to the city of the medicine King. Shen Yu and the other four master apothecaries said almost in unison. It was clear how high a status master apothecary Xuanyi had in their hearts.
A senior brother was like a father. Of course, this senior brother didn't refer to xuanming.
Hearing the master apothecaries 'answers, Yuan Yi frowned and was slightly unhappy. If the city Lord had not asked, he would not have come here to apologize to Xuanyi and the others, nor would he have suggested for Xuanyi and the others to return to the sect. He had thought that they would be deeply grateful to him, but he had not expected to be rejected. Thinking about the city Lord, it seemed that it would be difficult to explain it to him, so he could not help but suppress his impatience.
among the pills I've refined, there are a few that can increase one's lifespan. If you return to the sect, as compensation, you can receive a pill that can increase one's lifespan. Yuan Yi said, his heart twitching slightly. Those were all his treasures!
When the other four master apothecaries heard this, they looked at master apothecary Xuanyi in delight. Of course, they hoped that master apothecary Xuanyi could live longer.
Master apothecary Xuanyi shook his head and said, " "Many thanks for Grand elder's kind offer. How can I, Xuanyi, be worthy of such a precious pill?" Although he had a mild temper, he had his own pride and was unwilling to accept Yuan Yi's favor.
"Since that's all I have to say, then forget it. I'll send someone to send you out later." Yuan Yi was repeatedly rejected, and he was quite angry in his heart. When had he, Yuan Yi, ever persuaded others with such kind words? Xuanyi and the others really didn't know what was good for them! Since he couldn't make them stay, the city Lord could be considered to have given him an explanation. He stood up with a cold expression and left the guest hall without even looking at Xuan Yi and the others.
Hearing his master reject Yuan Yi, ye chen was quite happy. He glanced at Yuan Yi's back and touched his chin. Yuan Yi had just said that he had a few medicinal pills that could increase longevity!
Ye Chen's astral body moved. At this time, little squido, who was playing in the clouds above the imperial capital, sensed some information. It flew down and sneaked into a few buildings in the city of the apothecary King without anyone noticing.
