Chapter 2063: Three Wronged Little Wives

It wasn't just the Luo Family Ancestor who was vexed; those geniuses who had the chance to study under Ye Yuan were now at home, beating their chests and stamping their feet in regret.

Ye Yuan's talent was too formidable, and his skill in teaching disciples was equally impressive.

A man who could casually produce over a dozen pill formulas and drive the alchemical revolution in the Southern Domain—how could he ever be weak?

Who could guarantee that, tens of thousands of years later, the Southern Domain wouldn't produce another figure on the level of the Medicine Ancestor?

Even if Ye Yuan didn't become a Medicine Ancestor, he would undoubtedly be a grandmaster of the highest order, a towering figure like Mount Tai and the Big Dipper.

To become his disciple was an immense stroke of fortune.

"Old man Danyu is blind, but his great-grandson has a keen eye! That kid Yun Yi, under Master Ye's tutelage, will surely become a world-shaking figure. Perhaps in the future, Old man Danyu won't even be worthy of holding his great-grandson's shoes!"

"This kid is too monstrous. I'm afraid even the Medicine Ancestor in his prime didn't possess such terrifying strength, right?"

"He single-handedly overturned the entire Southern Domain Alliance! Such a earth-shattering feat earns him the title of 'Little Medicine Ancestor'!"

...

At some point, the nickname 'Little Medicine Ancestor' was bestowed upon Ye Yuan.

Almost everywhere in the Southern Domain, people were discussing Ye Yuan.

With Ye Yuan's dazzling strength, it was natural for others to compare him to the foremost figure in alchemy.

In the end, they found that even if the Medicine Ancestor returned to his youth, he would hardly be able to reach Ye Yuan's current heights.

After all, at the Cloud Alchemy Convention, Ye Yuan had overpowered all the Seven-Star Divine Alchemists.

Later, he even stirred the Sea of Laws and entered the Ancestor Realm.

At such a young age, he had already become a towering figure in the alchemy world.

Such achievements could be described as unprecedented and unparalleled, without any exaggeration.

Carrying such earth-shattering momentum, the modest Eagle Emperor City had already become the eighth top-tier sacred land in the Southern Domain.

Although this was not yet recognized by the Southern Domain Alliance, in the hearts of many alchemists, it was already an established fact.

More and more alchemists were flooding into Eagle Emperor City.

This small city had become far too crowded.

Ye Yuan had made an exorbitant demand, asking the Southern Domain Alliance for a hundred billion high-grade divine spirit stones, precisely to expand the city.

A hundred billion high-grade divine spirit stones was a colossal sum even at the level of the Great Emperor Capital.

Over the past decade, through his cooperation with the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, Ye Yuan had also amassed a huge fortune, enough to fund the city's expansion.

Negotiations between the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion and the Southern Domain Alliance were locked in a tug-of-war.

In truth, both Ye Yuan and Piao Yu knew that the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion alone, even with the support of the seven hidden families, could not swallow the fat piece of meat that was the Southern Domain.

In the end, the pie would have to be shared.

Otherwise, why would they even sit down to negotiate?

With the current strength of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, annihilating the Southern Domain Alliance would be a piece of cake.

But even if they couldn't swallow it whole, the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion would still strive to maximize their gains.

Ultimately, the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion would have to join the Southern Domain Alliance, but the division of interests would naturally not be as before.

Ye Yuan's advice to Piao Yu was not to seek too much territory, but to keep the pill formulas firmly in their own hands.

The Southern Domain Alliance would inevitably covet the pill formulas, and the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion's goal was to turn the Southern Domain Alliance into their downstream channel.

The Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion would supply the pills, while the Southern Domain Alliance would only have the right to sell them, with profits shared later.

In this way, the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion's position as the alliance leader would be as solid as an iron bucket.

As for the pills, with the support of the seven hidden families, they could be produced continuously.

These great alchemical families usually remained hidden from the world, but that was only relative.

For a child of a noble family to cultivate, they naturally required vast quantities of Divine Origin Stones.

This method of remote control was the favorite way for these reclusive aristocratic families to make money.

Of course, this was something that Flowing Feather Heavenly Sovereign had to worry about; Ye Yuan couldn't be bothered to care.

No matter the final outcome, he only needed to sit back and wait for his share of the profits.

One day, while Ye Yuan was cultivating in his residence, someone suddenly reported that the Five Cloud Emperor Capital's Lü Yan Heavenly Sovereign sought an audience.

Ye Yuan was slightly startled, then immediately understood something, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

In the City Lord's Mansion, Ye Yuan sat high in the hall, while the esteemed Lü Yan Heavenly Sovereign could only stand below with his hands at his sides.

Looking at Ye Yuan, who seemed to be above the clouds, Lü Yan's heart was filled with mixed emotions.

How could he have imagined that within the imperial city under his jurisdiction, a giant dragon would soar into the sky?

Although Lü Yan was not involved in the alchemy path, as a Heavenly Sovereign, how could he not know about a grand event like the Cloud Alchemy Convention?

As one shocking piece of news after another arrived, Lü Yan finally understood what kind of existence he had offended.

Back when Flowing Feather had given Ye Yuan the Grandmaster Token, Lü Yan, beyond his shock, had mostly sneered at it.

A mere True God realm cultivator, carrying the Grandmaster Token, going to the Cloud Alchemy Convention to make a fool of himself?

At his age, he should honestly compete with the six-star geniuses.

Become a grandmaster?

Are you worthy!

But as the news came in one after another, Lü Yan realized that Ye Yuan truly was worthy!

Later, however, when the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower broke ties with the Southern Domain Alliance, Lü Yan saw hope again, even expelling the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower and bringing in major powers like the Cloud Alchemy Tower.

In his view, the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower was bound to lose!

No matter how strong a force is, how could it possibly be stronger than the entire Southern Realm?

The Southern Realm is vast and boundless, with tens of thousands of great imperial cities alone.

How could a mere Ten Thousand Treasures Tower be a match for the Southern Realm Alliance?

But he never dreamed that Ye Yuan, with his own strength, would rout the Southern Realm Alliance completely, eventually forcing them to send someone to sue for peace.

Ever since he sent Lü Ziyi to capture Ye Yuan, nothing had gone smoothly.

For a mere imperial city, a Celestial Venerable could decide life and death at will.

But here in Tianying, Ye Yuan had given him one surprise after another.

The Five Emperors were all traditional territories of the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower; since they came to sue for peace, forces like the Cloud Elixir Tower naturally had to withdraw.

At this, Celestial Venerable Lü Yan almost burst into tears.

He brazenly went to the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower, hoping they would re-enter the Five Emperors' capital, but they simply wouldn't buy it.

The Flowing Feather Heavenly Sovereign spoke, saying that they would not interfere in the affairs of the Five Empyrean Imperial Capital.

For the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion to re-enter the Five Empyrean Imperial Capital, Ye Yuan's consent was necessary.

Thus, under extreme helplessness, Heavenly Sovereign Lü Yan had no choice but to humble himself and beg Ye Yuan.

If it were ordinary times, it would be fine—without the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, he could seek other forces to refine elixirs.

But the problem was that Ye Yuan had previously poisoned thousands of True God Realm cultivators, nearly causing a complete断层 in the middle ranks of the Five Empyrean Imperial Capital!

At this critical juncture, without the support of potent elixirs, he, a commander with no troops, would not know how long he would have to remain so.

At this moment, Heavenly Sovereign Lü Yan, along with Deng Yun and Dai Chunhao, sat like three wronged young brides, restless and uneasy.

Heavenly Sovereigns, the most supreme beings in this mortal world, how proud and spirited they once were!

They had never imagined that one day they would experience such emotions before a junior of the True God Realm.

"Lü Yan of the Five Empyrean Imperial Capital pays respects to Master Ye!" Lü Yan bowed deeply to Ye Yuan and said with great ceremony.
