Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 10
Chapter 10: How You’ve Changed
Great Yan Dynasty, five princesses, and two princes.
Second Princess Ye Qingxuan possesses extremely high cultivation talent, while Third Princess Ye Qingshuang’s alchemy talent is even more impressive.
Early on, she was noticed by Cang Yun, the top alchemist of Qingzhou, who taught her alchemy. She has been traveling around Qingzhou with Master Cang Yun for some time.
In comparison, Ye Qingxuan’s cultivation talent might become a pillar of the Great Yan Dynasty, but Ye Qingshuang, with Master Cang Yun as her master, undoubtedly has a greater impact.
“Master said to rest for a while, and he also wanted to see my imperial younger brother again, so he came,” Ye Qingshuang said with a smile.
Hearing this, Ye Qingwan’s eyes brightened, and she excitedly said, “Little Xuan? Could it be that Master Cang Yun wants to take Little Xuan as a disciple? ”
Ye Qingshuang shook her head with a smile and said, “Master doesn’t plan to take Little Xuan as a disciple. Master said that with the imperial younger brother’s talent, Master is not qualified to be his master; that would be misleading his descendant. ”
“Master Cang Yun’s assessment of Little Xuan is so high?!” Ye Qingwan gasped.
Who is Cang Yun? He is the top alchemist of Qingzhou, a Sixth-Rank Alchemist. If even he has such a high opinion of Ye Xuan, how high will Ye Xuan’s future achievements be?
Seventh-Rank, or even higher?
Will the Great Yan Dynasty have its own Seventh-Rank Alchemist in the future?!
“By the way, what about that good-for-nothing? ” Ye Qingshuang asked. She had returned for a few days six months ago and naturally knew that Ye Yu had returned, and his spiritual root had been destroyed.
Hearing Ye Qingshuang mention Ye Yu, Ye Qingwan’s face immediately turned cold, and she then told Ye Qingshuang what had happened in the past two days.
Ye Qingshuang’s expression darkened, and she said coldly, “That good-for-nothing dares to do this? He’s already become a good-for-nothing, yet we provide him with food and shelter, and he actually still dreams of the Crown Prince’s position! Does he not think about whether he, a good-for-nothing, is worthy! ”
“Who says it’s not true? I really don’t know where that vile thing gets all those vicious ideas,” Ye Qingwan said.
“I guess that good-for-nothing’s nature is like that. When he was young, he used some unknown method to win Imperial Grandfather’s favor, snatching the cultivation resources that originally belonged to Little Xuan. Now that he’s ruined, he still wants to fight for the position of Crown Prince,” Ye Qingshuang said with a cold gaze.
“Alright, let’s not talk about that good-for-nothing anymore. It’s disgusting just thinking about it. Where is Master Cang Yun? I want to hold a banquet to entertain him,” Ye Qingwan asked.
“Master should be with Little Xuan now. Let’s go later,” Ye Qingshuang said.
At this moment, in Ye Xuan’s palace, Ye Xuan was sitting somewhat awkwardly in front of Cang Yun. Facing this renowned top alchemist of Qingzhou, he was a little afraid.
After all, he had close contact with the Bl00d Demon Clan, and his aura would inevitably be affected. Alchemists are most sensitive to aura.
Cang Yun frowned at Ye Xuan, wondering how, in just a few years, this boy had changed so much? Moreover, why was his cultivation base only at the Foundation Establishment stage?
But Ye Qingshuang clearly said that this was her imperial younger brother?
“Master Cang Yun… Master, long time no see, are you well? ” Ye Xuan stammered.
Several years ago, when Cang Yun came to the palace to accept Ye Qingshuang as his disciple, he had attended the apprenticeship banquet, so he had met Cang Yun.
“You boy, why have you become so reserved? You weren’t like this a few years ago! ” Cang Yun said with a chuckle.
Back then, while traveling, he passed by Great Yan Imperial City. At a glance, he saw Ye Yu’s extraordinary talent and persistently entered the palace to try and take Ye Yu as a disciple.
But Ye Yu’s talent truly exceeded his imagination, which made him give up the idea of taking him as a disciple. Every alchemist walks a different path. He, a Sixth-Rank Alchemist, could only teach some basics; Ye Yu would have to explore his future himself.
And he had entered the palace under the guise of taking a disciple, so he could only settle for taking Ye Qingshuang, who had average talent.
He never expected that, after so many years, Ye Yu would have become like this. His low cultivation was one thing, but he also faintly emitted an aura that Cang Yun found repulsive.
“Alright, let’s not talk about these things. Come, let’s refine a pill. Let me see if your alchemy has regressed! ” Cang Yun waved his giant hand, and a sea-green alchemy furnace appeared in the center of the Main Hall.
Ye Xuan’s expression changed slightly, and he felt a little panicked, but his heart was filled with wild joy. Was Cang Yun thinking of teaching him alchemy? Otherwise, he wouldn’t ask him to refine a pill.
Ye Xuan knew a little about alchemy and could refine Second-Rank Pills. He immediately smiled and sent someone to fetch spirit herbs.
Soon, spirit herbs were brought in, and Ye Qingwan and Ye Qingshuang also entered the Main Hall at this moment. Seeing the situation, they exchanged glances and both saw the surprise in each other’s eyes.
Cang Yun glanced at the spirit herbs that had been delivered, twitched his mouth, and said, “Are you planning to refine a Second-Rank Pill? ”
“Yes, Master Cang Yun,” Ye Xuan was a little clueless and nodded blankly.
“Is this really your imperial younger brother? The Crown Prince of Great Yan? ” Cang Yun looked at Ye Qingshuang and asked.
Ye Qingshuang was stunned. Although she didn’t know what Cang Yun meant by asking this question, she still nodded and said, “Yes, Master. ”
After saying this, Ye Qingshuang also looked at Ye Xuan with extreme fondness.
Hearing this, Cang Yun’s face could not hide his disappointment. A wasted talent! That heaven-defying talent, what a pity!
“Forget it, just be your Crown Prince from now on,” Cang Yun sighed, took a step, and instantly disappeared from the Main Hall.
Only several people were left looking at each other, wondering what Cang Yun was up to.
On the other side, in an inn, Si Tu Guang stared at Ye Yu in disbelief. What had he just heard? Ye Yu could refine the Seventh-Rank Life-Giving Profound Yuan Pill?! Not only was this boy’s combat strength so strong, but he was also a Seventh-Rank Alchemist?!
“You’re not joking with me, are you? ” Si Tu Guang blurted out subconsciously.
Si Tu Guang wasn’t sure about the Other States, but in Qingzhou, there was absolutely no one who excelled in both alchemy and martial arts. Even Cang Yun, although his alchemy reached the Sixth-Rank, his cultivation was only at the Golden Core Peak.
It’s very difficult for someone to do two things at once.
Ye Yu glanced at Si Tu Guang and smiled, “You are Ruoxian’s guard. I wouldn’t lie to you. ”
Back at the Nine Nether Bl00d Spring, Ye Yu single-handedly fought against the Demon Race, suffering hundreds of injuries every day. It was precisely his heaven-defying alchemy that allowed him to endure for so long.
Si Tu Guang looked deeply at Ye Yu, then gritted his teeth and handed the storage ring to Ye Yu.
Ye Yu was stunned. After casually taking it, he looked at Si Tu Guang in surprise. Inside were the spirit herbs needed for the Life-Giving Profound Yuan Pill, already prepared.
“Is… is it okay? ” Si Tu Guang swallowed, nervous.
Ye Yu smiled and said, “Of course. It’s just that the years are a bit off, but it’s not a big problem. ”
After saying that, Ye Yu took out one of the insufficiently aged Five-Colored Flowers, and the next moment, his face suddenly changed.
