Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 24
Chapter 24: Little Yu, Come Home With Sister
In his Dantian, the small cauldron’s light blazed brightly, and after a long while, it ejected an Orb of Light.
Ye Yu reached out to catch it, examined it carefully, and said with some regret, “It’s actually a Nine Heavens Soul-Calling Grass. ”
The Nine Heavens Soul-Calling Grass is a good thing. It is the main Spirit Herb used to refine the Nine Turns Reanimation Pill, possessing the ability to revive the dead and heal wounds. With the Nine Turns Reanimation Pill, it’s not an exaggeration to say that it adds another life.
But for Ye Yu now, it’s not very useful.
The Nine Turns Reanimation Pill is an Eighth-Rank peak pill. Ye Yu does not currently have the ability to refine it; besides, the other Medicinal Herbs needed to refine the Nine Turns Reanimation Pill are also very precious.
After thinking for a while, Ye Yu put the Nine Heavens Soul-Calling Grass into his Storage Ring and began to meditate.
Three days passed in a flash.
During this time, Qingzhou had exploded. In the western part of Qingzhou, in the Barren Wastelands, a sudden spiritual energy disturbance had occurred, suspected to be a Secret Realm emerging.
On the eve of the Hundred Dynasties War, a Secret Realm suddenly appeared in Qingzhou, causing various Empires to become restless.
Even news came from the Yunlei Two States, that they would also vie for this Secret Realm.
For three days, Ye Yu had been opening the small cauldron every day, but these three times were the same as before—all high-level Spirit Herbs he currently didn’t need.
Because he had never been to that Secret Realm in his past life, Ye Yu didn’t know what would happen there. As the saying goes, it’s better to be prepared, so Ye Yu decided to refine some Pills to take with him.
With that in mind, Ye Yu went outside the palace.
The Great Qin Capital was bustling with activity. Although it was slightly less prosperous than Great Yan’s, the people living here seemed carefree.
Under Qin Wushuang’s deliberate arrangements, the news that Ye Yu, the former Crown Prince of Great Yan, had arrived in Great Qin had already spread.
The Great Qin subjects welcomed this Crown Prince, famous throughout Qingzhou. They were not fools. In the past, Great Yan was inferior to Great Qin. The war was started by someone who allowed Great Yan to develop to this point in just over a decade.
The people lived and worked in peace and contentment.
It was thanks to this Crown Prince!
Amidst the people’s friendly greetings, Ye Yu slowly arrived in front of Lingyun Pavilion.
Lingyun Pavilion, the number one merchant guild in Qingzhou, its business spans the Qingyun, Lei, Three States.
There’s a saying in Qingzhou: In Lingyun Pavilion, only if you can’t afford the price, is there something you can’t buy.
Of course, this statement might be an exaggeration, but it is enough to show the strength of Lingyun Pavilion and the scale of its commercial empire.
In the past, for the sake of Great Yan’s livelihood and to promote Great Yan’s economic development, Ye Yu had dealt with many high-ranking officials of Lingyun Pavilion. Now, he was quite familiar with the place.
“Little Yu! ”
Just as Ye Yu was about to enter, a familiar voice rang out from behind him.
Ye Yu frowned, turned his head, and saw Ye Qingshuang and Ye Qingxuan standing not far behind him, staring at him intently.
And that voice calling “Little Yu” was Ye Qingxuan’s.
“You’re really persistent, chasing me all the way to Great Qin,” Ye Yu said coldly and impatiently, looking at the two.
“What kind of attitude is this! ” Ye Qingshuang’s face darkened, and she reprimanded him.
Even though Master said Ye Yu was a Seventh-Rank Alchemist, Ye Qingxuan still had doubts. In her eyes, Ye Yu was just a dog licking her boots. If it weren’t for the poison on Ye Qingxuan’s body, she absolutely would not have come looking for Ye Yu.
“Shut up! Little Yu, come back with us. Only you can cure Second Sister’s poison. Just help Second Sister this once, okay? ” Ye Qingxuan rebuked Ye Qingshuang, then said to Ye Yu.
Ye Yu chuckled, looking playfully at Ye Qingxuan and said, “If you weren’t poisoned, would you come find me? ”
“What are you saying? You’re my younger brother. Second Sister will always bring you back. ” Ye Qingxuan said, her expression unnatural.
“Don’t you feel guilty saying that? ” Ye Yu’s sarcastic voice rang out. Then, Ye Yu lifted his shirt.
Ye Qingxuan hadn’t realized what Ye Yu was going to do.
The people around them all gasped.
Underneath the thin clothing, there were numerous hideous and terrifying wounds.
The scars left in the Nine Nether Bl00d Spring had faded quite a bit, but more scars were new injuries.
All of these were inflicted over the past year in the Great Yan Imperial Palace by these so-called sisters using various excuses.
No matter how strong the Illusory Dragon Wind Thunder Body is, it only strengthens the Physical Body, not the ability to heal scars.
These scars could be seen as a testament to Ye Yu’s merits, but also a history of humiliation.
“What? Second Sister, are you worried that I haven’t suffered enough and want to take me back to add a few more? ” Ye Yu mocked.
Ye Qingxuan’s eyes twitched, and then she said, “It’s all because you did something wrong. If you hadn’t done anything wrong, would I treat you like this?!”
“Yes, yes, yes, you’re right. ” Ye Yu put down his clothes, agreed, and then had no intention of paying attention to them anymore, turning to walk into Lingyun Pavilion.
“Stop! Doing this in front of everyone, isn’t it just to make us apologize and beg you to go back? For Second Sister, I can apologize to you, but whether you go back or not is not up to me! ” Ye Qingshuang gritted her teeth, her face full of reluctance, as if saying this sentence had given her great insult.
Ye Qingxuan took a deep breath and said, “Ye Yu, my patience is limited. Don’t push it too far! ”
“What? Can’t maintain the act of a good sister anymore? ” Ye Yu looked at Ye Qingxuan with a cold face, teasing her.
“Are you really going to force me to reveal your secret? Let me tell you, don’t push me. Once I say it, no one will have a good time! ” Ye Qingxuan threatened.
Before fainting, Ye Qingxuan had seen the fleeting Bloody Light in the Recording Stone.
Although she hadn’t seen it clearly, Ye Qingxuan believed that it was irrefutable evidence of Ye Yu’s collusion with the Demon Race.
“Oh? My secret? Then tell me. ” Ye Yu became interested, very curious to know what Ye Qingxuan thought she had on him.
“Good! You said it yourself, so don’t blame me for being ruthless! ” Ye Qingxuan’s tone was cold, and she took out the Recording Stone from her Storage Ring and gave it to Ye Qingshuang.
Ye Qingxuan couldn’t use spiritual energy now, so she naturally gave the task of playing the image to Ye Qingshuang.
Ye Qingshuang took it, looked at Ye Qingxuan doubtfully, but didn’t hesitate long before starting to infuse it with spiritual energy.
Soon, the Recording Stone glowed brightly, and an image began to appear above everyone’s heads.
Ye Qingxuan glanced at the increasing number of people around, then at Ye Yu, and said, “It’s not too late to regret it now. Will you cure me or not? ”
“Just play it already. I’m also curious. Don’t drag it out. ” Ye Yu looked at the image and waved his hand.
Hearing this, Ye Qingxuan glared at Ye Yu, then gestured for Ye Qingshuang to continue the image. For fear that the crowd wouldn’t understand, she said kindly, “This is a Recording Stone from the Crown Prince’s East Palace of Great Yan. Take a good look and see what kind of person Ye Yu, whom you all admire, really is! “
