Chapter 1911: Rong Xiyue
Peerless Medicine God · 第1911章 榕曦月
Holding the divine-grade Sun-Moon Azure Heaven Pill, Yu Changyun left satisfied.
Ye Yuan could refine Haoling Divine Pills, but for the City Lord's Mansion, he naturally wouldn't go all out.
However, the Violet Spirit divine-grade was already sufficient.
Not to mention in the Nine Xu Imperial Capital, even in the Grand Imperial Capital, few alchemists could refine divine-grade ninth-level pills.
Of course, the City Lord's Mansion had paid a considerable price for this.
No sooner had Yu Changyun left than Li Zi'an, the master of Liufang Tower, arrived at Tianying with a group of people.
They came, naturally, to seek pills.
Ye Yuan didn't have a good impression of Kongming Academy, but he wouldn't miss the chance to demand an exorbitant price.
What the ten cities of Lingnan lacked most at the moment were cultivation resources and spiritual herbs.
Ye Yuan couldn't stay in Tianying Imperial City forever to protect these people. Since that was the case, he would make those around him strong, so naturally no one would dare bully them.
As if by prior arrangement, after seeing off Li Zi'an, someone from Linghua Pavilion arrived right after.
But unlike the other two, Linghua Pavilion sent only one person.
That person was Rong Xiyue.
When this delicate, pitiable beauty stood before Ye Yuan, even he felt a sense of stunning beauty.
“So… so beautiful a woman!” Ning Tianping beside Ye Yuan, his eyes nearly popping out.
Rong Xiyue smiled sweetly and bowed to Ye Yuan.
“The guilty woman Rong Xiyue pays respects to the Inspector!”
That smile was even more refreshing; Ning Tianping, young and passionate, was almost melted by it.
Ye Yuan said with a faint smile, “What crime have you committed?”
Rong Xiyue was slightly startled inwardly, realizing she had underestimated Ye Yuan.
A woman's appearance was definitely a man's great weapon.
Rong Xiyue had always been extremely confident in her looks; every frown and smile of hers could drive any man crazy.
When Wu Tian saw Rong Xiyue, he was floating on cloud nine, completely at her mercy.
But Ye Yuan was only stunned for a moment before quickly returning to normal.
“Xiyue instructed Wu Tian to deal with Tianying, nearly causing a great disaster.” Rong Xiyue put on a wronged expression, truly pitiable.
Ye Yuan was also secretly alarmed; this woman's charm technique was too powerful.
If not for the Soul-Calming Pearl, even if he could regain clarity, it would never be this fast.
This charm technique was extremely subtle; Ye Yuan could see no trace of it from Rong Xiyue.
No coquettish postures, no flirtatious mannerisms; she just stood there, giving you an ethereal, celestial feeling, like a fairy descending to the mortal world.
Otherwise, Ning Tianping, who had trained with Ye Yuan for a long time and whose mental state was far from ordinary, wouldn't have fallen so easily.
Seeing Rong Xiyue, Ye Yuan quickly understood what was going on with Wu Tian.
“Nearly causing a great disaster? Rong Xiyue, don't tell me Jiang Yutang's matter has nothing to do with you!” Ye Yuan sneered, his gaze turning sharp.
But Rong Xiyue remained composed, puzzled, “Xiyue doesn't understand.”
Ye Yuan said indifferently, “Don't you think that just because you're as beautiful as a fairy, I won't destroy a beauty? Your charm technique is impressive, but it's not enough to deal with me!”
Clang!
Before Ye Yuan finished speaking, the Frost Sword suddenly left its sheath, its target Rong Xiyue.
Ning Tianping, not yet recovered, exclaimed, “Milord, what are you doing?”
Rong Xiyue's face changed drastically; she wanted to dodge the sword, but found she had nowhere to escape.
This sword strike was too fierce!
Rong Xiyue had extremely high talent, but she was only at the Seventh Heaven of Divine God, no match for Ye Yuan.
The next moment, Ye Yuan's sword was already at her throat.
“Milord, no!” Ning Tianping shouted.
Clearly, he had completely fallen.
But at that moment, a mysterious force drilled into his mind.
Ning Tianping shuddered, and his eyes finally regained clarity.
“This… what just happened to me?”
Seeing this, Rong Xiyue's pupils contracted; she finally knew she had met an expert.
Ye Yuan's attainments in the soul were simply terrifying.
Feeling the chill from the sword tip, Rong Xiyue felt death beckoning her.
“I don't care what schemes your Linghua Pavilion is cooking up behind the scenes, but you shouldn't have provoked me. Since you have, be prepared to be overthrown!” Ye Yuan said coldly.
Rong Xiyue's face was pale, no longer harboring any illusions, and said nervously, “Inspector, forgive me. Xiyue… Xiyue only wanted to use Yu Jinsong and the City Lord's Mansion to encroach on Kongming Academy's territory, but I never expected him to do something so beastly.”
Ye Yuan looked at her and said coldly, “If you had been manipulating behind the scenes, you would be dead by now!”
Yu Jinsong coveted Rong Xiyue, that was certain.
But Ye Yuan could tell that Yu Jinsong was not under Rong Xiyue's charm technique, nor was he controlled by her.
The strife among the three major forces and the framing of Jiang Yutang—Ye Yuan was displeased, but he understood.
But what happened to Jiang Haitang made Ye Yuan furious.
So no matter what, Yu Jinsong would not come to a good end.
Even if Yu Wenfeng hadn't sent him over, Ye Yuan would have sought justice in the future.
Rong Xiyue's face was pale, and she said fearfully, “Xiyue knows her mistake, and is willing to accept any punishment from the Inspector.”
What was happening before her eyes was completely different from what she had imagined.
No matter how powerful Ye Yuan was, he was still a Divine God realm martial artist; she thought she could escape using her charm technique and even obtain pills.
She wouldn't be foolish enough to cast a spell on Ye Yuan, but she could influence his decisions through her subtle charm technique.
Just as she had done with Yu Jinsong.
But now, she found herself terribly wrong.
She had almost lost her life.
Rong Xiyue no longer had any illusions; she could only resign herself to her fate.
Ye Yuan sheathed his sword, returned to his seat, and said coldly, “You've also come to seek pills, haven't you?”
Rong Xiyue's expression changed, and she said softly, “The Inspector is perceptive!”
Ye Yuan said, “Seeking pills is not impossible, but your payment will be five times that of the other two!”
Rong Xiyue was startled and was about to speak when Ye Yuan said coldly, “Don't waste my time with nonsense; there are no conditions to negotiate! If you don't agree, then leave! From now on, my Lingnan will no longer do business with your Linghua Pavilion.”
Hearing this, Rong Xiyue bit her lip lightly, curtsied to Ye Yuan, and said softly, “Milord, this little woman cannot decide. May I ask the Pavilion Master's opinion?”
Ye Yuan waved his hand and said indifferently, “Go ahead, but behave yourself, or you know the consequences!”
Rong Xiyue's charm technique was too powerful; if he didn't warn her, she could bewilder who knows how many people.
After Rong Xiyue left, Ning Tianping said with lingering fear, “Milord, this… this woman is formidable!”
Ye Yuan nodded, “Her charm technique is natural and flawless, with no trace of a flaw. Her soul is also much stronger than that of martial artists at the same level; quite troublesome!”
