Chapter 2621: The Holy Son Arrives

On the long official road, an old man and a young man walked slowly forward.

It was evident that the blue-robed youth walking ahead was very arrogant.

Suddenly, a talisman appeared out of thin air. The old man reached out and caught it in his hand.

After scanning the contents of the talisman, the old man's brows furrowed tightly.

"What, another defeat?" the young man said indifferently.

The old man nodded slightly and said, "This is already the seventeenth match! Even Mu Lianqing of the Qianyao Superior State under the Shangyu Heavenly Sect has been defeated by Ye Yuan. He was once a contender with you for the position of Holy Son!"

The young man said disdainfully, "Hmph! What is Mu Lianqing? What you speak of is only a matter of the past. Now, he is not even worthy of carrying my shoes!"

The old man said, "Indeed! The Holy Son is a candidate for the next Alliance Leader; how could Mu Lianqing compare? However, this Ye Yuan should not be underestimated!"

Mentioning Ye Yuan, the young man also said contemptuously, "If he didn't have some skills, the Alliance Leader wouldn't have sent me here! But no matter how monstrous he is, before our Alchemy Alliance, he is still insignificant. Let him be smug for a few days. Once I, the Holy Son, crush his spirit, these despicable ascendants will know who the true ruler of Yuqing Continent is!"

Three months had passed since Ye Yuan's big闹 the Danqing Tower.

In these three months, Ye Yuan had successively challenged seventeen Alchemy Alliance strongholds and defeated seventeen Alchemy Alliance alchemy masters.

The five great heavenly sects were thoroughly shaken!

Especially Mu Lianqing of the Qianyao Superior State, who had refined a ninth-grade mid-grade golden pill but was still suppressed by Ye Yuan!

Originally, when Ye Yuan had proclaimed the name of the Alchemy Pavilion in the Huotai Superior State, people had paid little attention.

But now, the name of the Alchemy Pavilion had resounded throughout the Five Radiance Heavenly Domain.

Various major forces had sent talented disciples to the Wuding Heavenly Sect's Alchemy Pavilion to study alchemy.

Almost all of the five great heavenly sects in the Five Radiance Heavenly Domain were composed of ascendants, and those who could become celestial alchemists were few and far between.

Therefore, the five great heavenly sects were especially dependent on the Alchemy Alliance.

The Alchemy Alliance's blockade of the Wuding Heavenly Sect naturally gave the other four sects a sense of sympathy for the fox's death.

But the more so, the less they dared to offend the Alchemy Alliance.

However, the emergence of the Alchemy Pavilion had completely changed this situation.

Ye Yuan had already proven with his strength to the world that the Alchemy Pavilion's prowess was in no way inferior to the Alchemy Alliance!

In fact, it was even stronger!

At least, so far, no one in the Alchemy Alliance had been able to surpass him!

Faced with such a sensational effect, the Alchemy Alliance naturally could not sit idly by.

Thus, they sent Cang Yongning, the blue-robed youth.

He was the Holy Son of the Alchemy Alliance and the strongest alchemist among the younger generation!

The Alchemy Alliance had always been mysterious; no one knew just how strong it was.

This time, the Alchemy Alliance sent Cang Yongning, partly to defeat Ye Yuan and partly to demonstrate its strength!

The old man nodded and said, "Of course! No matter how monstrous that boy is, before the Holy Son, he is naturally no match! Our Alchemy Alliance has always kept a low profile; it's time for Yuqing Continent to know our strength!"

Cang Yongning smiled slightly and said, "Where is that kid now?"

The old man said, "Yunni Superior State!"

Cang Yongning nodded and said, "Mm, it's not far from here. Let's go!"

...

In the Yunyi Tower, Kan Feihong was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

He paced back and forth, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

Beside him, the tower master Sun Xu also had a grave expression.

"Is there still no news from the Holy Son? Ye Yuan has already entered the city. What should we do?" Kan Feihong said urgently.

Mu Lianqing's defeat in the Qianyao Superior State had completely shattered Kan Feihong's illusions.

He knew that Mu Lianqing was on par with the Holy Son!

Although he had ultimately lost, no one could ignore his strength.

Yet, even such a figure had been defeated by Ye Yuan. How could he be a match?

Sun Xu shook his head and said, "The Holy Son's whereabouts are not something we can know. But I reckon he shouldn't be too far away, right? Perhaps he is already on his way to the Yunyi Tower! After all, even Mu Lianqing has been defeated. If the Holy Son doesn't show up, the Alchemy Alliance's face will have nowhere to be placed!"

Kan Feihong said angrily, "By the time the Holy Son arrives, it will be too late!"

Boom!

Just then, a loud noise came from outside.

Without guessing, it must be Ye Yuan's arrival.

Every time he arrived at a place, Luo Yunqing would directly tear down the signboard, without exception!

At least so far, no one in the Alchemy Alliance had been able to reclaim that face.

Mu Lianqing had also been very arrogant back then, but he had suffered a crushing defeat, filled with shame and indignation.

Kan Feihong's expression changed, and he said, "Damn it, that kid is here. What should we do? If we fight, we will surely lose; if we don't fight, we lose face. Alas!"

Seeing Kan Feihong sighing deeply, Sun Xu also looked helpless.

He understood Kan Feihong very well.

Kan Feihong had not been like this originally. Before Ye Yuan challenged Mu Lianqing, he had confidently declared that he would stop Ye Yuan's winning streak.

But now, he dared not say that.

Sun Xu sighed and said, "No matter what, let's go out first! Even if we lose, the Alchemy Alliance cannot be a coward!"

Kan Feihong grimaced and nodded.

Outside the Yunyi Tower, the crowd was in an uproar.

The Wuding Heavenly Sect had produced an alchemy master who had trounced the Alchemy Alliance.

This matter had long spread throughout the Yunni Superior State.

People had long heard of Ye Yuan's great name, and seeing him today, he was indeed extraordinary.

"Hey, I thought it was all hype before, but now it seems the rumors are true! Master Kan Feihong of the Yunyi Tower is so scared that he doesn't dare come out!"

"This Ye Yuan is truly formidable, boosting the morale of us ascendants!"

"They always say how powerful the Alchemy Alliance people are, but now it seems they are nothing special!"

...

Seeing the Yunyi Tower's main gate tightly shut with no one daring to come out, the crowd sneered incessantly.

It was not surprising that these people were amazed, for the Alchemy Alliance masters Ye Yuan had challenged were all renowned alchemy masters who presided over their regions!

These people's alchemy strength was even greater than that of the heavenly sects' offerings.

Yet, Ye Yuan had won seventeen consecutive matches, which was enough to prove how terrifying his strength was.

Creak!

The main gate of the Yunyi Tower finally opened, revealing the figures of Kan Feihong and Sun Xu.

Kan Feihong's expression darkened, and he said to Ye Yuan, "Kid, don't be so arrogant! Our Alchemy Alliance has already sent the Holy Son! Once he arrives, you'll be in for it!"

Ye Yuan looked at Kan Feihong and said with a faint smile, "What, has your Alchemy Alliance become so cowardly that you don't even dare to accept the challenge?"

Seeing Kan Feihong's blustering manner, the crowd was shocked.

This guy from the Wuding Heavenly Sect was too strong; he had actually scared Kan Feihong into not daring to make a move!

One must know that Kan Feihong's alchemy strength was extremely formidable!

Clearly, the deterrent effect of Ye Yuan's previous winning streak was immense!

Kan Feihong's face turned extremely ugly, and he said in a deep voice, "Ye Yuan, I concede! But if you have the guts, don't leave! When the Holy Son arrives, you will have your comeuppance!"
