‘Tianrong, Feiyan, it was my fault before. You can rest assured, from now on, I will definitely do my best.
’
Xia Tiancheng walked in front of Xiao Tianrong and Xia Feiyan and spoke.
Joking aside, since Ye Yunfei had given the order, how could he dare to disobey? The scene of Ye Yunfei effortlessly slaughtering the four True Manifestation Realm experts earlier had been deeply imprinted in his mind, making him revere Ye Yunfei like a deity.
Even though Ye Yunfei had already left, he dared not violate the words Ye Yunfei had spoken in the slightest.
At this moment, Ye Yunfei had already left Xia Manor.
‘My current Greenwood Emperor Body can't even be considered to have truly entered the introductory stage. It seems I need to continue collecting even more Wood-Attribute Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.’
Ye Yunfei muttered to himself.
‘I wonder when the Protect the Path Academy assessment will start. Before the assessment begins, I should simply travel around the Eastern Region and collect as many Wood-Attribute Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures as possible. I'll strive to cultivate my Greenwood Emperor Body to the true introductory realm.’
Ye Yunfei pondered in his heart.
‘I heard the Divine Medicine Valley is a power proficient in pill refining. Hmm, I'll pay them a visit. I, Ye Yunfei, am not someone to be trifled with.’
A cold smile suddenly appeared on Ye Yunfei’s face as he muttered to himself.
Then, Ye Yunfei tapped his toe, shot into the air, and leapt up into the sky.
Profound Realm martial artists could already glide through the skies to a preliminary extent. Ye Yunfei was now at the Middle Stage of the Profound Realm, and with his powerful physical strength, he could fly freely through the skies long ago.
Ye Yunfei took out a flying boat, entered it, and in the blink of an eye, disappeared at the edge of the horizon.
One day later.
In a meeting hall at the Divine Medicine Valley headquarters.
At this moment, almost all of the Divine Medicine Valley’s upper echelon were present in the hall.
Valley Master Lu Tianxuan sat in the center, with other Elders seated around him.
Everyone was very excited, engaging in heated and enthusiastic discussion.
“Haha, Valley Master, once Elder Yan brings those fifteen Realm Breaking Pills back, our Divine Medicine Valley can immediately gain fifteen more True Manifestation Realm experts. That way, among all the second-rate forces in the Eastern Region, our Divine Medicine Valley's strength will definitely rank first!”
A black-robed elder said with a loud laugh.
“Heh, this time, our Divine Medicine Valley obtaining fifteen Realm Breaking Pills is indeed an opportunity to rise.”
Another middle-aged woman with a plump figure said with a smile.
“Our Divine Medicine Valley has great developmental potential. I think that one day in the future, perhaps we could even catch up to the Three Saints, Five Clans, and Nine Sects.”
An elder with long white beard hanging before his chest said with a smile.
“That's right.”
Hearing this, everyone else's spirits were lifted.
“Heh, Elder Xu makes a good point. Our Divine Medicine Valley's goal is to one day catch up to those great powers and clans, truly expanding and flourishing our Divine Medicine Valley!”
The Valley Master said with a smile.
Everyone in the hall was in high spirits, feeling that the Divine Medicine Valley's future was exceedingly bright.
Right at this moment.
Suddenly.
“Valley Master! Elders! Something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened!”
A disciple of the Divine Medicine Valley rushed into the hall in a panic.
“Why are you so flustered? If something has happened, just say it directly!”
The Valley Master shouted sternly.
“Elder Yan… he's dead!”
The disciple answered.
“What?!”
Immediately, all the upper echelons of the Divine Medicine Valley sprang to their feet, each one utterly shocked.
“How did Elder Yan die!”
The Valley Master demanded sharply.
“That young man with the fifteen Realm Breaking Pills… it turns out he was Ye Yunfei from the Tianyuan Sect in the Great Qin Empire! Elder Yan was killed by Ye Yunfei. Also, Elder Lei from the Tianhu Gang, Elder Xiong from the Santong Sect, and Elder Zhong from the Ziwei Sect were also killed together by Ye Yunfei.”
The disciple hurriedly replied.
Ye Yunfei from the Tianyuan Sect of the Great Qin Empire!
Hearing this name, all the Divine Medicine Valley upper echelons were struck with terror, gaping in shock.
“So it was him! No wonder he could kill Elder Yan.”
The Valley Master's expression became somewhat grave.
“It is said that this Ye Yunfei entered the Sky-Shadow Hall and obtained the treasures of the Sky-Shadow Race. It seems those fifteen Realm Breaking Pills were certainly part of the Sky-Shadow Race's treasure trove.”
The elder with the long white beard hanging before his chest said slowly.
“Elder Yan died a miserable death at Ye Yunfei's hands, and we still haven't obtained the Realm Breaking Pills. Valley Master, let's go find Ye Yunfei immediately and kill him!”
The plump-figured woman said.
“No. This matter ends here.”
The Valley Master shook his head and said.
“Why?”
The other upper echelons all looked at the Valley Master.
“Because our Divine Medicine Valley cannot afford to offend Ye Yunfei. Last time, a total of ten True Manifestation Realm experts set a trap to deal with Ye Yunfei. But in the end, Ye Yunfei was unscathed and even killed two of those True Manifestation Realm experts. Do you think our Divine Medicine Valley can handle Ye Yunfei?”
The Valley Master slowly said, sweeping his gaze over everyone.
Silence fell over the hall.
“The Valley Master is right. Given the strength of our Divine Medicine Valley, wanting to deal with Ye Yunfei would indeed be a bit of a stretch. So, it's best we don't provoke him. We should exercise discretion and protect ourselves. Although the Realm Breaking Pills are precious, our Divine Medicine Valley doesn't have the capacity to swallow them.”
The elder with the white beard hanging before his chest also shook his head and sighed.
For a time, the atmosphere in the hall became extremely oppressive.
Originally, these Divine Medicine Valley higher-ups thought they could obtain fifteen Realm Breaking Pills and add fifteen True Manifestation Realm experts to their ranks.
Little did they expect that now, not only did they fail to get the Realm Breaking Pills, but they had instead lost a True Manifestation Realm expert. This outcome left these higher-ups feeling somewhat dejected and crestfallen.
“Heh, your Divine Medicine Valley certainly had some self-awareness. Unfortunately, it's a bit late. You've already provoked me.”
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out in the hall.
“Who's there?!”
Everyone in the hall was greatly startled.
“It's me.”
A young man abruptly appeared in the center of the hall, standing with his hands clasped behind his back, his gaze sweeping over the Divine Medicine Valley’s upper echelon as he spoke calmly.
“Are you Ye Yunfei?”
The Valley Master stared at Ye Yunfei, a look of apprehension in his eyes.
“Correct.”
Ye Yunfei nodded.
“Ye Yunfei! Why have you barged into our Divine Medicine Valley?!”
The black-robed elder roared angrily.
“Your Divine Medicine Valley isn't some dragon's den or tiger's lair. I enter whenever I wish.”
Ye Yunfei said with a cold laugh.
“Elder Qi! Do not be discourteous to our distinguished guest!”
The Valley Master hurriedly stopped the black-robed elder.
“Ye Yunfei, may I ask for what reason you have come to my Divine Medicine Valley?”
The Valley Master clasped his hands and asked.
“Your Divine Medicine Valley’s Elder Yan brought men to surround and attack me, trying to seize my Spirit Pills. The Divine Medicine Valley should offer me a formal apology. Otherwise, this matter is not over.”
Ye Yunfei said.
“Elder Yan led men to ambush you, but he was also killed by you. A life for a life—do you still demand that our Divine Medicine Valley offer you an apology?”
The plump woman couldn't hold back and retorted angrily.
“Ye Yunfei, may I ask what kind of compensation you desire?”
The elder with the white beard hanging before his chest forcibly suppressed his anger and asked solemnly.
“Hmm, let's do it this way. Bring out all the treasures your Divine Medicine Valley possesses, for me to examine freely. Once I’ve selected satisfactory treasures, I’ll naturally leave.”
Ye Yunfei thought for a moment and said.
Hearing Ye Yunfei's words, the faces of all the Divine Medicine Valley upper echelons in the hall instantly changed.
