Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 136

Chapter 136: I Need To Find Time To Return To Great Yan

“You? ” The Nine Spirits Sect Master frowned and looked at Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan nodded and said, “Yes, Sect Master. Actually, I am a Sixth-Rank Alchemist, but I haven’t had the chance to tell you. ”

After speaking, Ye Xuan scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

A gleam flashed in the Nine Spirits Sect Master’s eyes. They exclaimed in surprise, “Is this true?!”

Ye Xuan nodded heavily.

Everyone present was filled with amazement. A Sixth-Rank Alchemist of such a young age was a rare sight even among Alchemy Sects. Becoming a Seventh-Rank Alchemist was almost a certainty, and even reaching Eighth-Rank wasn’t impossible.

From Liu Qi’s attempts to obtain an Eighth-Rank Pill from Ren Xiaoyao, one can see what an Eighth-Rank Alchemist signifies.

In the entire Leizhou, the number of Eighth-Rank Alchemists would definitely not exceed five.

Even Gu Yuan, the Chief Alchemist of the Nine Spirits Sword Sect, was only a Seventh-Rank Mid-Stage Alchemist.

“Good! Good! Good! Well done! Ye Xuan, you’re truly well done! After this Alchemy Conference ends, you can go to the Treasure Pavilion and choose three Magical Artifacts you need! ” The Nine Spirits Sect Master waved their hand and laughed loudly.

After these words fell, a look of envy appeared on the faces of many Elders.

The Treasure Pavilion of the Nine Spirits Sword Sect, even many of them had never entered.

“What? Aren’t you going to show off? ” Feng Qiwen grinned and said to Ye Yu.

Others may not know, but Feng Qiwen knew that Ye Yu was also an Alchemist, and a powerful Alchemist whose Soul Power had reached a bottleneck, at least a Seventh-Rank.

Ye Yu rolled his eyes at him, too lazy to pay attention.

Having made a fool of himself, Feng Qiwen shrugged. After the Nine Spirits Sect Master finished explaining some details to pay attention to, he took Ye Yu and left.

Ye Xuan, however, was kept behind, apparently planning to give him special treatment.

Back in the Cave Mansion, Feng Qiwen informed Ye Yu about the Soul Realm classifications.

The Soul Realm, from low to high, is divided into Human, Earth, Heaven, Law, and Dao, five realms.

Currently, Ye Yu’s Soul was only at the Earth Realm Peak, one step away from entering the Heaven Soul Realm.

However, the improvement of the Soul Realm is completely different from spiritual energy. If spiritual energy has pills as a shortcut, then the Soul needs real cultivation.

“As for your current situation, I think it’s because your Soul is incomplete, which prevents you from breaking through. ” Feng Qiwen examined Ye Yu carefully and said seriously.

“Incomplete? ” Ye Yu was startled.

“Yes, it should be that when you were born, someone took away a trace of your Soul and kept it. As for who did it and what they did with it, that’s your own business. ” After Feng Qiwen finished speaking, he waved his hand, signaling Ye Yu to leave.

Ye Yu bowed and turned to leave, his expression becoming extremely serious.

According to Feng Qiwen, if a part of his Soul was indeed taken away, then the trouble would be great. If it fell into the wrong hands, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“It seems I need to find time to return to Great Yan,” Ye Yu took a deep breath and murmured, then returned to his Cave Mansion.

Early the next morning, Ye Yu came to the Main Hall.

The other six Direct Disciples were already waiting, but Ye Xuan was nowhere to be seen.

After a long while, Ye Xuan was seen entering the Main Hall laughing and chatting with an Elder. The Elder was none other than Gu Yuan, the Chief Alchemist of the Nine Spirits Sword Sect.

He was also one of the participants in this Leizhou Alchemy Conference.

In the Main Hall, Gu Yuan scanned everyone, his gaze stopping on Ye Yu. He said, “You are Xu Wangchen? Young people should be humble. Don’t think that a little talent makes you arrogant. ”

Regarding Gu Yuan’s sudden targeting, Ye Yu didn’t even need to think; it was definitely Ye Xuan behind it. However, Ye Yu didn’t care. He was just a Seventh-Rank Alchemist. He simply said indifferently, “Are you finished with the nonsense? Can we leave? ”

“Brother Wangchen, how can you speak to Master Gu like that? Master Gu said those things for your own good! ” Ye Xuan quickly stepped forward and said.

“Oh, in that case, please withdraw your kindness, Master Gu. I can’t accept it. ” Ye Yu said indifferently.

Seeing Ye Yu’s unyielding attitude, Ye Xuan’s heart blossomed with joy.

Gu Yuan was an important person, the Chief Alchemist of the Nine Spirits Sword Sect. The entire Alchemy Hall was under his control. Offending Gu Yuan meant no hope of getting a single Spiritual Pill from the Alchemy Hall again.

“Good! Good! Good! Very good! I hope you won’t come begging to me someday! ” Gu Yuan laughed angrily, gave Ye Yu a cold look, turned around, took out the Spirit Boat, and took everyone to the Alchemy Conference.

Leizhou was vast, several times larger than Qingzhou, and the Alchemy Conference was held in a city called Pill Seeking City in the center of Leizhou.

This place could be considered the gathering place for Alchemists in the entire Leizhou. If you wanted to obtain any pills, you would come here.

The name of Pill Seeking City came from this, simple and clear.

Under Gu Yuan’s leadership, the group spent three days on the Spirit Boat before reaching Pill Seeking City.

Along the way, Gu Yuan and Ye Xuan tried several times to pick on Ye Yu, but although Gu Yuan was a Seventh-Rank Alchemist, his cultivation base was only Transformation God Mid Stage.

Facing Ye Yu, who was at the Transformation God Initial Stage, he dared not go too far, and the journey was relatively peaceful.

The group landed outside the city.

Before entering the city, they smelled an extremely strong Pill Fragrance. This wasn’t from a single pill; it seemed to be inherent to the entire city.

This shows how many pills Pill Seeking City must have produced.

“A bunch of country bumpkins. Once inside, don’t cause trouble. If you provoke the wrong people, the Nine Spirits Sword Sect won’t be able to protect you. ” As he spoke, Gu Yuan deliberately glanced at Ye Yu.

Obviously, these words were directed at Ye Yu, the troublemaker.

Ye Yu agreed with Gu Yuan’s words. Alchemists were generally not to be trifled with. No one knew how many people were behind a High-Rank Alchemist.

Gu Yuan led everyone to an Inn, told everyone not to cause trouble, and left with Ye Xuan after saying they could do as they pleased.

Seeing the two leave, Ye Yu removed the Concealing Veil from his face, changed his clothes, and left the Inn. Soon, he found the Inn where the Zi Xiao Sword Sect members were staying.

“Who are you! This is the place of the Zi Xiao Sword Sect; outsiders are not allowed to approach. ” Just as Ye Yu was about to go in, he was stopped by a familiar figure.

Ye Yu looked up and saw Lin Qingyang. He immediately said, “Get out of the way. Who is leading your group this time? Have them come see me. ”

Lin Qingyang looked at the unfamiliar young man in front of him and burst out laughing. Since when could stray cats and dogs come to step on the Zi Xiao Sword Sect?

His face immediately sank. He drew his Long Sword and prepared to teach this ignorant person a lesson.

But at that moment, a surprised voice came from inside the room, “Lingyunzi pays respects to the Saint Son! ”
