Chapter 2287: Afraid You Can't Handle the Consequences

Deep in the clouds, unknown where, only in this mountain.

This describes the Cloud Heart Mountain Range.

The Cloud Heart Mountain Range is a vast mountain range near the Heavenly Mountain, with extremely abundant spiritual energy.

The entrance to the Cloud Heart Realm lies at the most spiritually rich point of the Cloud Heart Mountain Range.

Ordinarily, this place is rarely visited.

This is the Dao field of the Medicine Ancestor; no one dares to blaspheme his divine might.

But now, the Cloud Heart Mountain Range is bustling with people, many experts flying deep into the mountains.

"Tsk, tsk, the Medicine Ancestor occupying such a sacred mountain—truly remarkable! If not for following you, this Emperor wouldn't dare approach this place!" exclaimed the Right Bright Heavenly Emperor.

He, an Eighth Heaven Heavenly Emperor, was a pinnacle existence in the Heavenly Realm.

Yet he absolutely dared not come to a place like the Cloud Heart Mountain Range.

The foundation of the Cloud Heart Realm was far deeper than that of the Priest Temple.

Here, experts were as numerous as clouds; even super experts at the Heavenly Being Realm dared not act recklessly, let alone an Eighth Heaven Heavenly Emperor like the Right Bright Heavenly Emperor.

Feeling the oppressive spiritual energy, Ye Yuan nodded and said, "This place is close to the Heavenly Mountain; it's probably one of the most spiritually abundant Dao fields. The Medicine Ancestor's abilities merit this place."

Though he held the Medicine Ancestor's character in contempt, Ye Yuan had no doubt about his strength.

"Eh, what a beautiful lady!"

A young man suddenly stopped, staring straight at Bai Qingyan with a lecherous look.

Behind the young man followed an old man with white hair and beard.

The old man emanated strong fluctuations, clearly no ordinary hand.

Bai Qingyan frowned slightly but ignored the young man.

"Ye Yuan, let's go," Bai Qingyan said.

Ye Yuan nodded and was about to move on, but the young man shifted and blocked their way.

"Heh, what a fiery beauty, this young master likes her! Beauty, I am Leng Tianhao, the most outstanding Seven-Star Pill God of the Leng Clan in the Purple-Blue Realm. I will soon become a disciple of the Medicine Ancestor. Follow me, and you'll enjoy endless wealth and honor."

Leng Tianhao spoke with confidence, believing that invoking the Leng Clan's name would surely move Bai Qingyan.

"The Leng Clan of the Purple-Blue Realm!"

Ye Yuan and Bai Qingyan showed little reaction, but the Right Bright Heavenly Emperor was startled, his face full of wariness.

Seeing the Right Bright Heavenly Emperor's reaction, Leng Tianhao grew even more smug.

"What, is the Leng Clan of the Purple-Blue Realm famous?" Ye Yuan asked curiously.

The Right Bright Heavenly Emperor nodded slightly. "The Purple-Blue Realm is a pill-refining family with an extremely long heritage and profound foundation! The Leng Clan's ancestor is himself a peak Ancestor-level pill master, and Leng Tianqi, of the Leng Clan, is a disciple of the Medicine Ancestor's senior disciple, making him the Medicine Ancestor's grand-disciple."

The Right Bright Heavenly Emperor, having lived a long life, knew these reclusive families of the Heavenly Realm like the back of his hand.

Moreover, the Leng Clan was itself a highly formidable pill-refining family.

Hearing the Right Bright Heavenly Emperor's words, Leng Tianhao said smugly, "Heh, Leng Tianqi is none other than my elder brother!"

Ye Yuan responded with an "Oh," showing little reaction.

"Little beauty, following this penniless brat leads nowhere. Follow me, and you'll not only enjoy wealth and honor but also reach the peak of the Heavenly Emperor realm in the future! How about it, consider it?"

As he spoke, Leng Tianhao even reached out to touch Bai Qingyan, right in front of Ye Yuan and the Right Bright Heavenly Emperor.

Bai Qingyan's eyes turned cold, and she dodged the touch with a flicker.

Leng Tianhao was unfazed and laughed, "The little beauty is shy! Don't worry, big brother will take good care of you."

A murderous intent surged from Bai Qingyan, and she said coldly, "Ye Yuan, I want to kill someone!"

Ye Yuan said calmly, "Why kill? He's just a horny fool. Castrate him."

Bai Qingyan smiled charmingly and said, "Good idea!"

The two chatted as if no one else was around, but the old man opposite grew alert.

An overwhelmingly powerful aura suddenly erupted, enveloping the three of them.

A cold flash, Bai Qingyan's sword was incredibly fast.

However, the old man opposite was an Eighth Heaven Heavenly Emperor, a supreme expert; how could he give Bai Qingyan a chance to strike?

"Freeze!"

But before he could act, Ye Yuan spoke calmly.

A terrifying heavenly law suddenly descended, binding the old man.

Ye Yuan could not bind an Eighth Heaven Heavenly Emperor for long—just a moment.

But that single moment was enough.

"Ah!"

A earth-shattering scream pierced the clouds, and Leng Tianhao clutched his lower body in pain.

The old man's face changed drastically, and he roared, "You dare to cripple the young master? This Emperor will make you pay with your lives!"

With that, his terrifying aura erupted again, and he charged at Ye Yuan.

But just then, a figure appeared between them, blocking the old man's path.

The newcomer was a middle-aged man in a blue robe, his aura extremely powerful, even surpassing the old man's.

He looked at the old man and said coldly, "Anyone who fights in the Cloud Heart Mountain Range will be killed without mercy!"

Before the old man could speak, Leng Tianhao's voice rang out like a stuck pig: "They struck first! Brother Qingyu, I am Leng Tianhao's brother. You... you must seek justice for me!"

As he spoke, cold sweat poured from him, clearly in extreme pain.

The Azure Feather Heavenly Emperor turned to Ye Yuan and said coldly, "Fighting is forbidden in the Cloud Heart Mountain Range. Didn't your elders teach you that before you came?"

Ye Yuan glanced at him and said with a faint smile, "With your shrewdness, can't you see what happened? By questioning me like this, do you think I'm easy to bully?"

The Azure Feather Heavenly Emperor, sent to patrol the mountain, was naturally a worldly-wise figure.

He had come over, taken one look, and immediately understood the situation.

But since Leng Tianhao had declared his affiliation, he was one of their own, so of course he would favor Leng Tianhao.

Yet he hadn't expected Ye Yuan to see through him at once.

This kid was clearly very young—how could he have such keen insight?

"Hmph! No matter how glib you are, the fact that you struck is true! Can this Emperor not deal with you? I'll give you a chance: cripple your divine sea, and I'll spare your life!"

The Azure Feather Heavenly Emperor stood with his hands behind his back, speaking calmly.

He knew most of the pill-refining experts from the major families of the Heavenly Realm.

But both Ye Yuan and the Right Bright Heavenly Emperor were unfamiliar to him.

Thus, he concluded that Ye Yuan was merely a genius from a minor power.

The Cloud Heart Realm could afford to offend such a person.

"Ha, the people of the Cloud Heart Realm sure put on airs! But if you put on airs in front of me, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle the consequences later. Soon, you'll be kneeling before me to apologize," Ye Yuan said with a cold laugh.

The Azure Feather Heavenly Emperor found this amusing and laughed, "An arrogant brat who's never seen the world, I suppose? It's always others who apologize to the Cloud Heart Realm; the Cloud Heart Realm never apologizes to outsiders! You think you can make this Emperor apologize? Now, I'll give you three breaths. If you don't act, I will!"

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"
