Chapter 1549: A Slightly Larger Ant

When the spiritual energy completely dissipated, the aura on Huang Qian had become powerful.

Though still unconscious, everyone knew he had been saved.

"This... he can break through even while asleep. Why doesn't such good fortune happen to me?"

"Forget it! That's the credit of Master Ye's pill! It's marrow cleansing and bone reforging, giving that kid a complete transformation."

"This pill is truly heaven-defying. Not only can it detoxify, but it also helps him break through! Those fifty million divine spirit stones were well spent!"

...

Just then, Huang Qian slowly opened his eyes.

"Second Uncle? I... what happened to me?" Huang Qian asked, looking bewildered.

Huang Haoran beamed and said, "Qian'er, quickly check if there's anything unusual with your body!"

Huang Qian didn't understand, but he still examined himself as instructed, frowning, "No... this isn't right!"

Huang Haoran's expression changed, and he said nervously, "What's wrong? What's not right?"

When Huang Qian said this, the others also became tense.

Especially Ding Song and his group, who were inexplicably overjoyed and pricked up their ears.

"I... I feel as if I've been reborn. My speed of absorbing spiritual energy is much faster than before! My cultivation aptitude seems to have improved significantly! Second Uncle, what exactly happened?" Huang Qian suddenly said excitedly.

"..."

Everyone was speechless. This is what he calls not right?

"Slap!"

Huang Haoran directly slapped Huang Qian and said irritably, "You brat, you want to scare your second uncle to death? I asked you to check if there's anything wrong with your body, and you call this wrong?"

Although Huang Qian's strength was now almost catching up to Huang Haoran's, he didn't seem to have the awareness of being a strong person in front of Huang Haoran.

Huang Qian smiled wryly and said, "It is wrong! How could my cultivation aptitude suddenly improve so much for no reason?"

Huang Haoran was momentarily speechless, realizing that what Huang Qian said made a lot of sense.

He had just woken up and suddenly found his aptitude greatly improved—wasn't that unusual?

Huang Haoran was shocked inwardly, not expecting the Heaven Blood Marrow Exchange Pill to be so heaven-defying.

Such a change was nothing short of a complete transformation!

One must know that cultivation aptitude was the hardest thing to change.

A single pill could not only expel an incurable poison but also improve cultivation aptitude.

Those fifty million divine spirit stones were indeed well spent!

But... Master Wufeng would be hard to deal with.

Huang Haoran's heart was full of bitterness, but he also knew that such a thing couldn't be avoided.

The onlookers all looked at Huang Qian with envy. This guy was incredibly lucky to have met a master alchemist like Master Ye—what a blessing from several lifetimes.

As for Ding Song and his group, their expressions were extremely grim.

Ye Yuan curing Huang Qian officially declared their provocation today a failure!

They had finally witnessed Ye Yuan's strength. This guy was simply abnormal, single-handedly sweeping through the entire South City.

Today, Ye Yuan had effectively slapped the faces of all alchemists in South City.

Weren't you here to cause trouble? What now?

Now, he had thoroughly made a name for Miaoshou Studio!

They could foresee that before tomorrow morning, the news of Ye Yuan single-handedly challenging the five major forces would spread throughout South City, even the entire Outer City!

Miaoshou Studio would definitely become the most popular medicine shop in South City.

"You brat, why aren't you thanking Master Ye? If not for Master Ye's miraculous skills, you'd be knocking on death's door in a few days! You were poisoned with an ancient rare poison that even a four-star divine alchemist couldn't handle, but Master Ye cured you!" Huang Haoran scolded.

Though he was scolding, the joy on Huang Haoran's face was impossible to hide.

"Buzz..."

Huang Haoran's words ignited everyone!

Master Wufeng really did seek out the Four-Star Divine Alchemist!

So this was Master Wufeng's confidence! But he probably never imagined that the poison even a Four-Star Divine Alchemist couldn't handle would be cured by Master Ye!

Not only that! That kid Huang Qian was incredibly lucky! Not only was the poison cured, but he saved years of arduous cultivation. Now even his cultivation aptitude has improved!

I think... fifty million divine spirit stones is a steal! Master Ye's price is a real bargain!

...

Miaoshouzhai instantly erupted in chaos, only then realizing that Huang Qian had indeed consulted a Four-Star Divine Alchemist.

That was a Four-Star Divine Alchemist!

Like in martial cultivation, the gap between a Four-Star and a Three-Star Divine Alchemist was enormous.

Yet Ye Yuan had accomplished what even a Four-Star Divine Alchemist could not.

How could they not be astonished?

Ning Siyu's gaze had never left Ye Yuan from the start.

Others might not know how terrifying the Purple Feather Marrow-Destroying Poison was, but she did.

This poison was an age-old problem, never solved by anyone!

But Ye Yuan had done it!

Just how far had this guy progressed in the Dao of Alchemy?

Eh? Master Ye?

Huang Qian looked at Ye Yuan in surprise—this incredibly young man was the one who cured him?

But he had no reason to doubt Huang Haoran's words, so he bowed and said, "Huang Qian thanks Master Ye for the gift of life."

Slap!

Slap!

Slap!

At that moment, a crisp clapping sound rang out, and a powerful aura suddenly appeared in Miaoshouzhai, pressing down on everyone until they could hardly breathe.

A Divine Lord realm expert! someone exclaimed.

Such a powerful aura could only belong to a Divine Lord realm expert.

Xiao Riyue parted the crowd and slowly strode into the hall.

His world-dominating aura was on full display.

Xiao... Xiao Riyue! You... you broke through to the Divine Lord realm?

Meng Huo, seeing that familiar figure, turned pale as paper, his eyes filled with disbelief.

There had always been rumors that Xiao Riyue was in seclusion trying to break through to the Divine Lord realm, but few believed he would actually succeed.

Yet now, he had truly broken through!

For the Thunderclap Gang, this was nothing short of a devastating blow!

Hmph!

Xiao Riyue snorted coldly, directly sending Meng Huo flying.

How dare you address this Divine Lord by name? Xiao Riyue said coldly.

Xiao Riyue's strike was far heavier than Luo Yu's, directly injuring Meng Huo severely.

He turned to look at Ye Yuan and said with a light laugh, "Master Ye is truly remarkable! Even a poison that a Four-Star Divine Alchemist couldn't cure, you managed to neutralize! Your alchemical skill is truly superb!"

Ye Yuan frowned and said in a deep voice, "You injured my man in my pharmacy?"

Xiao Riyue was taken aback, then laughed, "Just an insignificant ant; hurting it is no big deal."

From Xiao Riyue's tone, Ye Yuan could infer his purpose in coming.

But this guy was far too arrogant.

Did he think that breaking through to the Divine Lord realm made him invincible?

"You yourself just transformed from an ant; what's there to be arrogant about? Besides... you're just a slightly bigger ant now!" Ye Yuan said discontentedly.
