Turning to Ye Wushuang and then to Chi Yuan, Yun Xingjian maintained his gentle tone and smiled, “So why did you bring this newcomer here?”
Chi Yuan conveyed telepathically once more, “His name is Ye Wushuang, and he is a descendant of the Ye Clan. In the past, I was greatly benefited by Lord Ye Wentian. Protecting the descendants of the Ye Clan is the least I can do. Is there any problem with that?”
Indeed, there was no problem. These two had nearly sacrificed themselves to help the Ye Clan in the past. The first-generation president had subdued them, but it was Ye Wentian who had truly earned their heartfelt respect and loyalty. Their reverence for Ye Wentian ran deep.
“Moreover,” Chi Yuan’s tone grew more solemn as he continued telepathically, “Yun Xingjian, over these years, you have been prolonging my wife’s life, and I am grateful for that. However, now, Ye Wushuang has a way to cure her. Therefore, I hope that he will not face any threat to his life within the Blue Cloud Academy.”
“Of course, if you cannot protect him, I will do it myself. But if it comes to that, I will not be held accountable for the consequences!”
At these words, Yun Xingjian’s expression finally changed. Ye Wushuang could cure Chi Xuan? How could that be possible? As a Myriad Laws realm warrior, he had sought out numerous fourth- and even fifth-grade spirit pill masters over the past five hundred years to treat Chi Xuan, but all had been at a loss.
Ye Wushuang, merely at the fifth level of the Condensing Meridians realm, claimed to have a solution?
“Red Serpent, can this young man be trusted?” Yun Xingjian asked politely.
Chi Yuan replied immediately, “Yes, he can.”
Hearing Chi Yuan’s resolute answer, Yun Xingjian understood. He knew that questioning Ye Wushuang’s abilities at this moment would only displease Chi Yuan and Chi Xuan, so he chose to remain silent.
Ye Wushuang bowed and said, “To the two Red Serpents and the president, I have not yet completed the Spiritual Cloud Mountain trial. I shall return now.”
With that, Ye Wushuang walked toward the exit of the valley. At the valley’s entrance, Li Changqing and Tang Chuyi had brought Xiao Yuan, Wang Xueqi, and Qing Chengtian over as well.
Tang Chuyi quickly pulled Ye Wushuang aside and scolded, “You foolish boy, are you trying to get yourself killed? Do you have any idea who the two Red Serpents are? Look at how respectfully even the president is treating them…”
Ye Wushuang coughed and laughed, “Why would I want to get myself killed for no reason? Elder Tang, it was the Red Serpent who brought me here.”
“Bring you here for what?”
“To help cure its wife’s poisoning.”
“You?”
Tang Chuyi was stunned. A mere Condensing Meridians realm cultivator claiming to cure a fifth-tier spirit beast—was he joking?
At that moment, Yun Xingjian also exited the valley.
“Tang Chuyi,” he called.
“Here,” Tang Chuyi responded.
“Escort these disciples back and complete the final days of the Spiritual Cloud Mountain trial,” Yun Xingjian ordered.
“Yes, sir.”
With that, Tang Chuyi gestured for Ye Wushuang and the others to follow him.
At that moment, a voice echoed in Ye Wushuang’s mind. It was Yun Xingjian conveying telepathically, “I don’t know what method you claim to have, but you should understand that if you fail, not only will the two Red Serpents kill you, but the Blue Cloud Academy will as well.”
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang simply smiled and followed Tang Chuyi away.
After they left, Yun Xingjian turned to the other dozen or so elders and said, “You may all leave now.”
As the figures dispersed, Li Changqing looked at the departing group and sighed, “What on earth is going on?”
Yun Xingjian responded with a question of his own, “I was about to ask you the same thing…”
“The Red Serpent says that Ye Wushuang can cure its wife. Now, it is protecting Ye Wushuang and has made it clear that if we fail to protect him, it will take matters into its own hands. But it won’t be responsible for any consequences that may arise.”
Li Changqing’s expression turned astonished upon hearing this.
