Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 143

Chapter 143: Brother Wangchen

Ye Xuan looked at Ye Yu at that moment, or rather, at Xu Wangchen, his gaze filled with fervent heat.

Especially after learning that Gu Yuan had arranged for someone to wait here for Ye Yu to come out.

Ye Xuan believed that if Ye Yu and Xu Wangchen in front of him clashed, a confrontation between two prodigies, the worst outcome would be a mutual injury, and it might even damage their foundations.

Seeing Ye Xuan appear, Lin Qingyang merely curled his lips, turned and left, leaving behind a group of bewildered Zi Xiao Sword Sect disciples.

However, since Lin Qingyang had left, they couldn’t say anything, and followed him away.

Watching the Zi Xiao Sword Sect members leave dejectedly, a smile appeared on Ye Xuan’s face. He looked at Xu Wangchen, as if saying, “It’s a good thing I showed up; my identity will still make the Zi Xiao Sword Sect members wary. ”

Immediately afterward, Ye Xuan took Ye Yu to Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan frowned as he looked at Ye Yu. Ever since Ye Yu and Han Yi had entered the Main Hall, he had arranged for people to monitor them. Unexpectedly, it was Ye Yu who went in, but Xu Wangchen who came out.

If the spiritual energy fluctuations of Ye Yu and Xu Wangchen had not been completely different, he would have probably thought Ye Yu and Xu Wangchen were the same person.

“When did you enter the Alchemy Alliance Hall? ” Gu Yuan asked, frowning. For some reason, he felt something was wrong.

Can one just enter the Alchemy Alliance Hall whenever they please?

Ye Yu casually fabricated a reason, saying, “An Alchemy Alliance Elder said my talent was excellent and brought me in. ”

The reason was weak, but Gu Yuan didn’t dare to verify it with the Alchemy Alliance Elder.

“Forget it, you two go back and inform the Sect Master about this. We’ll wait here a little longer,” Gu Yuan waved his hand.

Ye Yu nodded nonchalantly, glanced around, Ren Xiaoyao was also present, the Nine Spirits Sword Sect’s desire to kill him was still strong.

Three days later, Ye Yu and the others returned to the Nine Spirits Sword Sect.

Ye Xuan informed the Nine Spirits Sect Master about what happened at the Alchemy Conference.

When the Nine Spirits Sect Master learned that Ye Yu, the Zi Xiao Saint Son, not only possessed extraordinary cultivation talent, but also had such terrifying Alchemy Dao skills, his expression turned extremely gloomy.

“Could it be that my Nine Spirits Sword Sect will be suppressed by the Zi Xiao Sword Sect for a generation?!” The Nine Spirits Sect Master gritted his teeth, his face looking unpleasant.

“Sect Master, rest assured. Although my Imperial Brother has outstanding Alchemy Dao talent, I am confident that I can surpass him! ” Ye Xuan quickly stepped forward, speaking with a serious expression.

The Nine Spirits Sect Master turned and looked at Ye Xuan. Thinking of Ye Xuan becoming an Alchemy Conference Prodigy, his expression improved slightly; after all, Ye Xuan was a few years younger than Ye Yu.

Then, his gaze fell on Ye Yu again. After pondering for a long time, he finally sighed and said,

“It’s alright. Their Zi Xiao Sword Sect produced a Saint Son, Ye Yu, who excels in both Alchemy and Sword Dao. But we have Ye Xuan in Alchemy Dao and Xu Wangchen in Sword Dao. The two of you are comparable to one Ye Yu. ”

Hearing this, Ye Xuan’s expression wasn’t very good, but he couldn’t say anything.

“In that case, from today on, Ye Xuan, you will focus on Alchemy Dao. After reaching the seventh rank, consider other things. As for Wangchen, I plan to send you to Sword Peak,” the Nine Spirits Sect Master decisively said.

Upon hearing the words “Sword Peak,” Ye Xuan’s expression changed drastically.

Just as the Zi Xiao Sword Sect has the Zi Xiao Sword Tomb, the Nine Spirits Sword Sect also possesses a secret realm, called Sword Peak.

Within Sword Peak are the Sword Dao insights of the Nine Spirits Sect’s ancestors throughout the generations; legend says it even contains Celestial Grade Sword Techniques.

“That, Sect Master, didn’t you say that the Sword Peak position this time is mine? ” Ye Xuan quickly said.

“Circumstances have changed. Ye Yu’s growth has been too rapid. Special circumstances require special measures. You’ll have to wait for the next time. Don’t worry, this Sect Master won’t mistreat you. After all, Wangchen was also introduced to the sect by you,” the Nine Spirits Sect Master waved his hand and made his decision.

The muscles on Ye Xuan’s face twitched, and he had a bitter taste in his heart. He originally thought that bringing Xu Wangchen into the sect would raise his reputation and status to another level.

Now it looks like he’s shooting himself in the foot. The Sword Peak position is gone!

But despite his inner dissatisfaction, he couldn’t show it. He turned to Ye Yu and said, “Then I’ll leave it to my sworn brother. The future of the Nine Spirits Sword Sect rests on your shoulders. This time’s position, I’ll give it to you. ”

Ye Yu glanced at Ye Xuan. This matter was clearly decided by the Nine Spirits Sect Master, but in Ye Xuan’s words, it seemed like he generously gave it up.

The matter having been decided, the Nine Spirits Sect Master instructed Ye Yu with a few words, informing him of the many matters concerning entering Sword Peak, then allowed Ye Yu to return to his Cave Mansion.

Ye Xuan also returned to his residence. As soon as he arrived, he saw Ye Qingling and immediately noticed that she hadn’t cultivated the Bl00d Refining Technique. He immediately said, “What’s wrong? You didn’t cultivate the cultivation technique that your second brother gave you? ”

Ye Qingling’s expression froze, and she hesitantly said, “I thought about it, and I feel that cultivation isn’t suitable for me. ”

Looking at Ye Xuan’s expression, the question of whether it was a Demonic cultivation technique remained unasked by Ye Qingling.

Ye Xuan waved his hand indifferently, “Suit yourself. ”

His mind was full of the matter of Xu Wangchen entering Sword Peak.

Xu Wangchen’s status in the Nine Spirits Sword Sect was increasingly high. In time, his prominence would surely surpass his own, especially after taking his position at Sword Peak.

He could accept that Xu Wangchen’s talent was higher than his, and his cultivation base stronger, but he couldn’t accept Xu Wangchen’s prestige exceeding his own, just like Ye Yu’s before.

After pondering for a long time, Ye Xuan saw Ye Qingling, who was somewhat restless, and suddenly grinned, “Qingling, do you want to go find Xu Wangchen? If you want to go, go ahead. Second brother won’t stop you this time. ”

Ye Qingling was startled and looked at Ye Xuan in surprise. Ye Xuan’s reaction when she went to find Xu Wangchen before was still vivid in her memory. She said incredulously, “Re… really? Second brother? ”

“Of course, it’s true. ” Ye Xuan stepped forward and patted Ye Qingling’s head. In a place Ye Qingling couldn’t see, he secretly injected a beam of bloody light.

“You injected Bl00d Refining Essence into her body? ” A voice sounded beside Ye Xuan, and a bl00d-armored figure appeared.

Ye Xuan nodded indifferently, “As long as Xu Wangchen is tainted with Demonic Qi, even if it’s only a tiny bit, I can make him face utter ruin! ”

Ye Qingling nodded. After learning that the Bl00d Refining Technique might be a Demonic cultivation technique, she didn’t know how to face Ye Xuan, so she immediately ran away.

When Ye Qingling arrived at Ye Yu’s Cave Mansion, Ye Yu was just coming out of Feng Qiwen’s Cave Mansion. That old fellow had disappeared to who-knows-where.

As Ye Qingling’s figure drew closer, Ye Yu’s eyes narrowed. Ye Qingling’s aura had changed. Although it was extremely faint, he sensed the Bl00d Demon Clan’s aura from her.

“Brother Wangchen! ” Seeing Xu Wangchen, Ye Qingling’s eyes lit up, and she hurried over.

And the Demonic Qi emanating from her body was also merging into Ye Yu’s body strand by strand at that moment.
