Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 13
Chapter 13: Damned Old Man
“Are you crazy? ” Ye Yu frowned, looking at Cang Yun.
Cang Yun finally understood, looking at Ye Yu, almost bursting into tears. He cried, saying, “You boy, I thought you were ruined! You scared me to death! ”
“Huh? ” Ye Yu frowned, looking puzzled.
Then Cang Yun explained how he mistook Ye Xuan for Ye Yu in the Imperial Palace.
Ye Yu felt speechless. This old man was still the same as before, his mind full of alchemy, unable to distinguish people.
Si Tu Guang, standing aside, coldly snorted and said, “Ye Qingwan is quite a talent, treating Ye Xuan, that kind of trash, as a treasure. She truly doesn’t know who Great Yan Dynasty owes its current success to. ”
Others didn’t know, but Si Tu Guang knew very well. As one of the protectors of the Great Qin Dynasty, he was naturally well-informed about the affairs of the surrounding empires.
Emperor Ye Fan of Great Yan became a hands-off leader after the death of the retired Emperor Ye Zhentian of Great Yan.
After that, Ye Yu, the former Crown Prince of Great Yan, took over the administration of the state. Several national policies he set led to a period of rapid development for Great Yan.
Until Ye Yu went to the Nine Nether Bl00d Spring, Ye Qingwan managed the government, and Great Yan’s national strength clearly stagnated.
“Whatever, they will handle their own affairs. ” Ye Yu waved his hand indifferently. In his past life, he would have been troubled by these matters, working his hardest, only to die at the hands of these people.
“Hehe, he refined a Seventh-Rank Pill in just two hours. If they knew, they would regret it until their guts turned green. ” Si Tu Guang chuckled.
Cang Yun’s eyes widened immediately upon hearing this. He stared intently at Ye Yu, stepped forward, grabbed his shoulders, and said, “Two hours? You only used two hours?! How did you do it! ”
“Want to learn? Become my disciple, and I’ll teach you,” Ye Yu said, smiling at Cang Yun.
Cang Yun twitched his mouth. This was something he once said to Ye Yu. After a long while, he shook his head and said, “Forget it, I’ll follow my own path. You have your own methods. ”
The three were chatting in the inn, but Ye Qingwan and several others grew impatient. They immediately ignored Nangong Wushe’s obstruction and rushed down towards the inn.
People from other major empires watching this scene all sneered.
Those from the Great Yan Imperial Family were all brainless.
Seeing this, Nangong Wushe could only follow suit, protecting Ye Qingwan and Ye Xuan.
Just as Ye Qingwan was about to knock on the door, the inn’s door opened, and Cang Yun came out.
“Master Cang Yun. ” Seeing Cang Yun, Ye Qingwan and the other were overjoyed. They never expected Cang Yun to be here. Didn’t that mean Cang Yun had a close relationship with this Seventh-Rank Alchemist?
They were stupid, not fools, and wouldn’t naively believe that Cang Yun was the one who refined the pill just now.
Seeing Cang Yun, people from other empires also landed, bowing to Cang Yun. As a Sixth-Rank Alchemist, he deserved their respect.
“What are you doing here? ” Cang Yun’s tone was cold. He had also learned about Ye Yu’s recent experiences from Si Tu Guang. Facing these two ingrates, he couldn’t muster any goodwill.
Ye Qingwan nudged Ye Xuan, giving him a look.
Ye Xuan understood immediately, knelt down, kowtowed to Cang Yun, and said, “Ye Xuan humbly requests to become Master Cang Yun’s disciple. ”
Now it seemed that Cang Yun and the mysterious Seventh-Rank Alchemist definitely had a connection. As long as he became Cang Yun’s disciple, with Cang Yun’s recommendation, Ye Xuan’s talent might be noticed by the Seventh-Rank Alchemist.
“Heh, becoming a disciple? I dare not teach you, lest you turn around and bite me one day. Go find someone else,” Cang Yun said with a sneer.
Everyone present was stunned, unsure why Cang Yun would speak in such a tone. This was more than just a simple refusal.
Wasn’t the Third Princess of Great Yan Cang Yun’s disciple? Why this attitude?
Ye Xuan looked up at Cang Yun, a flash of resentment in his eyes. He, once a crown prince, had knelt down publicly without shame. Even if Cang Yun refused, what did these words mean?
“Master Cang Yun, what do you mean? Is my younger brother not good enough? If he can’t meet your standards, what kind of person can? ” Ye Qingwan said, displeased.
Hearing this, Nangong Wushe’s face changed drastically, and the others were also stunned.
Was Ye Qingwan crazy? To speak to a Sixth-Rank Alchemist like that?!
But Ye Qingwan didn’t think anything was wrong. In her eyes, Cang Yun was her sister’s master and a person of Great Yan. Since he was from Great Yan, he should listen to her, just like Ye Yu.
Cang Yun’s expression turned cold. He was about to get angry when he heard Ye Xuan cry out, “Imperial Brother?!”
Everyone then looked behind Cang Yun. Ye Yu and Si Tu Guang were sitting in the inn, chatting happily.
Several people from other empires’ faces darkened. They never expected to be beaten to the punch by people from Great Qin.
Ye Yu looked at the two indifferently, too lazy to pay attention. He continued to talk to Si Tu Guang about the Life-Giving Profound Yuan Pill, how to maximize its medicinal effects.
According to Si Tu Guang’s condition, if taken properly, he might directly break through to the Nascent Soul Mid Stage.
“Imperial Brother, why are you slandering me? ” Ye Xuan said, looking wronged.
Ye Qingwan also reacted at this moment, immediately connecting Cang Yun’s previous attitude, and said coldly, “You dog, you’re not good enough yourself, and now you can’t stand to see Xiao Xuan doing well. How did Great Yan Imperial Family produce such a bastard! ”
“If Xiao Xuan can’t become Master Cang Yun’s disciple today, just wait and see how I deal with you! ”
After these words, several people from other empires frowned. They had heard about Ye Yu’s recent experiences on their way, but now it seemed that what they knew was just the tip of the iceberg.
The protectors were even more shocked. They distinctly felt a dangerous aura from Ye Yu.
This seemingly harmless youth was probably extraordinary.
“Imperial Brother, I know you don’t like me, but you don’t have to go this far. If I could become Master Cang Yun’s disciple, it would be a good thing for Great Yan. Even if you don’t think of me, consider the subjects of Great Yan! ” Ye Xuan said with a heartbroken expression.
Ye Qingwan’s heart ached. She immediately used her spiritual energy to grab Ye Yu, but Si Tu Guang coldly stopped her.
Ye Yu was annoyed and said, “Damn old man, you caused this mess, so deal with it quickly. Don’t disturb our rest. ”
Hearing this address, everyone outside except Ye Qingxuan and Ye Xuan gasped.
Even Nangong Wushe looked at Ye Yu in shock. He actually spoke to Cang Yun like that?!
But obviously, Ye Yu wasn’t a fool. Since he spoke to Cang Yun like that, he must have the confidence to do so.
Ye Qingwan sneered. Daring to speak to Cang Yun like that, without her having to do anything, Cang Yun would make Ye Yu pay the price!
Ye Xuan also looked at Cang Yun expectantly, as if he could already see Cang Yun killing Ye Yu!
