Chapter 2551: Ye Yuan's Business Sense

"Brother... Brother Tang, we were wrong, please forgive us!"

Before Tang Jinhua and his son knelt a crowd of people.

These guards, now one-armed, endured the excruciating pain as they kowtowed to the Tang father and son, confessing their guilt.

Looking at the guards bowing their heads in apology, Tang Jinhua and his son felt immensely relieved.

These men had shown no mercy in their attacks just moments ago.

If not for the timely arrival of the Second Prince and Cloud Master, they might have been beaten to death!

Having vented most of his anger, Tang Jinhua was about to speak when he heard Ye Yuan suddenly point at Xie Hua and say coldly, "You, did you make a move?"

Xie Hua's entire body trembled, his expression shifting dramatically.

Ye Yuan smiled faintly and said, "It seems you did make a move! What, are you more special than them?"

Xie Hua broke out in a cold sweat and said fearfully, "I... I am the National Teacher's disciple! Master, I..."

Lin Lan's gaze darkened as he said, "Ye Yuan, do me a favor and spare his arm. I'll have him kowtow and apologize to the Tang family, and there will be additional heavy compensation!"

For a Heavenly Alchemist, losing an arm meant losing the ability to refine pills, losing all glory!

Those guards still had their strength.

But for Xie Hua to refine pills again would be extremely difficult!

Ye Yuan grinned and said lightly, "How much is your face worth?"

Lin Lan's expression changed, and everyone drew in a cold breath.

Even the Second Prince and Lu Yun broke out in a cold sweat.

This was offending the National Teacher to the death!

Of course, that was because they didn't understand Ye Yuan.

He was actually a very reasonable person, but do not touch his reverse scale!

Once his bottom line was crossed, even if you were the Jade Emperor, he wouldn't buy it!

The Tang father and son being innocently abused—that was his bottom line!

If you did it, you had to pay the price!

Pleading for mercy?

Not happening!

Lin Lan said coldly, "Ye Yuan, are you going to completely tear off all pretense of cordiality with me?"

Ye Yuan said lightly, "So what if I am?"

Lin Lan laughed in extreme anger, "Good! Very good! In this Eastern Lin Nation, no one has dared to speak to me like that for a long time! You, very good!"

Ye Yuan chuckled and said, "Alright, stop putting on airs! You haven't even gotten through your own hurdle yet!"

Lin Lan's face darkened, and he almost spat blood.

Ye Yuan was unperturbed and said lightly, "What, are you going to tear up the soul contract? Our contract includes a clause that whoever makes a move must cut off an arm."

If Ye Yuan were willing, he could naturally exempt Xie Hua from punishment.

But he wasn't willing, so Lin Lan would be violating the soul contract, with extremely serious consequences.

Lin Lan's whole body trembled, and he said through gritted teeth, "Xie Hua, cut off your arm!"

"Mas... Master!" Xie Hua was almost in tears.

"I told you to cut off your arm, didn't you hear?" Lin Lan almost roared.

Xie Hua's face was full of despair, but he still refused to cut off his arm.

Lin Lan frowned, then turned into a blur and appeared before Xie Hua.

Puchi!

One of Xie Hua's arms was torn off by Lin Lan himself.

Lin Lan whirled around and glared fiercely at Ye Yuan, saying, "Are you satisfied?"

Ye Yuan curled his lip and said, "It's not about satisfaction; this is what he deserved."

Lin Lan's gaze was full of killing intent as he said coldly, "Go, kneel and apologize!"

Xie Hua was almost fainting from the pain, but he dared not disobey Lin Lan's order, so he went to the Tang father and son and kowtowed in apology.

The Tang father and son looked at each other, feeling as if they were sitting on pins and needles.

The earlier satisfaction had turned into terror.

Ye Yuan was too ruthless, leaving no room for compromise!

"Relax! If you can't handle even this small scene, don't follow me in the future! If you still feel unsatisfied, killing a few for fun is fine too!" Ye Yuan said lightly.

The Tang father and son trembled, steeled themselves, and suddenly felt much more resolute.

Ye Yuan was truly domineering!

They couldn't lose face either!

The Tang family had no way back; they could only follow Ye Yuan to the end.

Moreover, following a man of honor like Ye Yuan seemed like a good choice!

But in the eyes of the onlookers, Ye Yuan was a complete madman!

Better to end a feud than to continue it.

In the Eastern Lin Nation, what benefit was there in offending the National Teacher to the death?

Ye Yuan's gaze fell on Lin Lan, and he said with a faint smile, "National Teacher, it's your turn!"

Lin Lan was now filled with murderous intent, beyond anger.

But he was bound by the soul contract and dared not make a move.

He stared fixedly at Ye Yuan and said, "I'll ask you one last time: are you really going to offend me to the death?"

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "If you insist on seeing it that way, then I tell you, yes!"

Lin Lan's eyes narrowed almost to slits.

Suddenly, he turned around, went to the Tang father and son, and bowed deeply, saying, "My apologies to both of you!"

Having said that, without waiting for the Tang father and son to respond, he turned to leave.

"Let's go!"

"Hold on!" Ye Yuan suddenly said.

Boom!

Lin Lan's aura instantly peaked, and he glared at Ye Yuan, saying, "Boy, do you really think I dare not kill?"

Ye Yuan laughed heartily and said, "National Teacher, you're old and still so hot-tempered! I have no other intention; I just see so many people with broken arms and can't help but want to drum up some business."

Having said that, he smiled at the one-armed guards and said, "Everyone, within five years, the Tang family will launch an exclusive Jasper Renewal Pill! If you want to restore your broken arms, remember to patronize the Tang family's business!"

Those guards trembled, looking at Ye Yuan with hope.

The name Jasper Renewal Pill was not unfamiliar to them.

In fact, this pill formula was not exclusive to Gu Mao.

At least, Lin Lan also had this pill formula.

But in the Eastern Lin Nation, no one could refine the Jasper Renewal Pill!

Not even the National Teacher!

If the difficulty of refining the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Pill was entry-level,

then the difficulty of refining the Jasper Renewal Pill was devil-level!

The complexity of this heavenly pill was beyond imagination.

Even an ordinary second-grade Heavenly Alchemist would find it hard to refine.

Lin Lan sneered, "Ridiculous! With you, can you refine the Jasper Renewal Pill within five years?"

Ye Yuan looked at Lin Lan with a half-smile and said, "National Teacher, I think you have good gambling ethics. How about we make another bet? I'll give you another chance: if I can't refine the Jasper Renewal Pill within five years, I'll let you do with me as you please. How about it?"

"I..." Lin Lan swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

This ascender before him was too strange.

Who knew if he might actually refine it within five years!

"Ha, if you don't dare to bet, then shut up!" Ye Yuan sneered.

Lin Lan exploded!

He roared in anger, "Boy, I'll take that bet! If you can't refine the Jasper Renewal Pill within five years, I'll make sure you die a miserable death!"

Ye Yuan was delighted upon hearing this and said, "Great! If I do refine it, how about you let me be the National Teacher?"
