Tang Chuyi was acutely aware of the sheer terror that was Ye Yunzhe’s strength. In the present day, within the Qingyun Empire, there were two figures widely recognized as invincible masters of the Wanfa realm: Yun Xingjian and Qing Muyuan. Yet in his prime, Ye Yunzhe had been no less formidable than these two—perhaps even stronger. If there was even a minuscule chance, a mere one in ten thousand, that Ye Yunzhe could return to his peak, he would be like a double-edged sword, a deadly weapon hanging over the hearts of the five great clans.
Tang Chuyi murmured, “If they knew Ye Yunzhe was alive and that you might be able to heal him… they would stop at nothing to kill you.”
“Yeah, I know,” Ye Wushuang exhaled, a smile playing on his lips. “But if Ancestor Yunzhe recovers and the five great clans remain unaware, he could be my ultimate trump card when the chips are down.”
Hearing this, Tang Chuyi’s face was a mask of astonishment as he looked at Ye Wushuang. This young man had actually thought of that?
“You wouldn’t have already healed him…” Tang Chuyi began, but Ye Wushuang just smiled enigmatically, neither confirming nor denying.
“Alright, alright, you’re too crafty for me. I won’t ask anymore,” Tang Chuyi conceded. “But this time, the five great clans suffered heavy losses—five of their council elders are dead, and several of their Tian Gang elders as well… If you’re not afraid, you should get back to the academy soon. The disciples of the five great clans there will be eager to get their hands on you!”
“I’m looking forward to it,” Ye Wushuang replied with a grin.
After chatting with Ye Wushuang for a while longer, Tang Chuyi took his leave. Ye Wushuang had many matters to attend to now.
No sooner had Tang Chuyi departed than another guest arrived. From the Qingyun Pavilion, it was Mu Qiqi.
In the room, Ye Wushuang began to refine pills, while Mu Qiqi stood by, waiting quietly. Ostensibly, she was there to catch up with Ye Wushuang after a long time apart, to chat and reminisce. But in reality, she was eager to learn from him, to observe his pill-refining techniques. The trust that Mu Qiqi and Qing Mengli had in Ye Wushuang was not just because of his impressive display at the Qingyun Pavilion. It was also due to the high praise his subsequent pill creations had received from many pill masters within the pavilion. Ye Wushuang hadn’t visited the Qingyun Pavilion for quite some time, and the pill masters there were eagerly awaiting his return.
“Lately, there have been far too many people inquiring about you,” Mu Qiqi said. “Ye Wushuang, are you worried about being assassinated?”
“Assassinated? So what if I am? If I die, Mu Junli will die too…”
“You…” Mu Qiqi huffed. “You can’t die. Recently, my mother has stationed quite a few more people around the Ye Mansion, just to protect you.”
Ye Wushuang just smiled. Qing Mengli and Mu Qiqi cared about him more than anyone else did!
Half a day passed, and the pills were ready. Now, having reached the third level of the Yuanfu realm, Ye Wushuang’s spiritual power had greatly increased. He could easily refine second-tier low-grade spiritual pills, mid-grade spiritual pills, and even high-grade spiritual pills with success.
“Protective Heart Primordial Spirit Pill, Meridian-Opening Moonlight Pill, and Great Yang Sun Pill—these three types of second-tier pills will allow your father to exert his full strength without triggering his injuries,” Ye Wushuang explained.
Mu Qiqi’s eyes lit up with joy as she looked at the pills. “You mean my father can now freely unleash his Wanfa realm power without being held back by his injuries?”
“Yep.”
“Then… does that mean once you reach the Tian Gang realm and can refine third-tier pills, my father will be fully healed?”
Ye Wushuang nodded. “As long as you prepare the ingredients I’ve listed, it can be done.”
“Okay!” Mu Qiqi’s heart was filled with even greater happiness at the prospect of her father’s recovery.
“Ye Wushuang, you can’t die. I won’t let you die,” Mu Qiqi said firmly.
After collecting the pills, Mu Qiqi left. But before Ye Wushuang could catch his breath, another guest arrived…
